Chapter 166 - 165 Director Qi’s Phone Call

Bai Fangfei was startled at his words and stared straight ahead.

After waiting for a moment, she realized that no car dared to cut in front of them, even though the traffic was jam-packed behind them; they all automatically made way for that car.

But, Lu Mian had just gotten into that car!

This makes no sense!

Bai Fangfei couldn’t accept it, “It’s not even a luxury car…”

“Maybe, this is just the pleasure of the rich…” Old Li remarked with a tsk tsk.

The car’s badge “Weilan” was a guise, a third-rate brand with top-tier manufacturing. At first glance, it indeed looked like an ordinary car without much fame, but in fact, its engine to its decorations, everything was top-notch.

Even the shell of the car was bulletproof.

It was quite normal for regular people not to know these details, but for them drivers, it was impossible not to be aware.

Strangely, this was the second such car he had seen in Wucheng.

It seems that there are indeed many wealthy individuals in Wucheng who prefer to keep a low profile.

Old Li’s words triggered dissatisfaction in Bai Fangfei; they were discussing the car, but Bai Fangfei was upset that she, the daughter of the Bai Family, was being overshadowed by Lu Mian, and her own driver was even speaking in Lu Mian’s favor.

“That’s a lie…” she murmured disdainfully under her breath.

Old Li didn’t take her comment to heart and asked with a smile, “Miss, was that your classmate just now? I saw you talking to her.”

“Yes.”

“Miss is really lucky to have such a person as a classmate…”

“…”

Bai Fangfei’s face looked as embarrassed as if she had swallowed a fly.

Glaring again at the car in front, trying to see inside from all angles but failing, she immediately came up with an idea.

The car that came to pick up Lu Mian doesn’t necessarily belong to Lu Mian; who knows what messy reason lies behind it…

“Uncle Li, let’s not go home yet. Follow that car in front, let’s see where they’re headed!”

“?”

——

Lu Mian got into the car and leaned back in a comfortable position on the back seat, all relaxed and lazy.

The driver in front, Dongyang, a 23-year-old young man, turned around, respectful and deferential.

“Boss, I’ll take you there first; someone else will pick up Miss Yuanyuan separately.”

Lu Mian hummed in response, “Let’s go.”

The car started and left the congested street without any impediment.

After driving for half a minute, Dongyang glanced through the rear-view mirror, his voice quite cold as he reported to Lu Mian, “Boss, someone is following us.”

“Oh.” Lu Mian, who had just started a game, swiftly maneuvered her fingers, replying nonchalantly, “Shake them off.”

She showed not a hint of tension from being followed, as it had become routine for her.

Upon receiving the command, Dongyang accelerated and quickly lost the Rolls-Royce that was closely following them.

Heh, trying to tail them? Get a different car first!

Lu Mian paid no attention to these minor details and calmly continued her game. After a victory in the game, her phone also started ringing.

It was a call from Xiao Qimo; she paused, seemingly hesitant.

Dongyang was quite curious and glanced at her through the rear-view mirror; the boss was always decisive, answering calls promptly or hanging up immediately. Whose call could make her hesitate like this?

Eventually, Lu Mian tapped to answer the call.

“Director Qimo.” Her tone was faint.

A smooth and elegant bass voice came from the other end, “Are you free tonight? I’d like to invite you to dinner.”

Lu Mian was silent for a few seconds.

Xiao Qimo gently smiled, “Don’t misunderstand. Some ingredients like beef and foie gras were shipped over from abroad, and they’re said to be excellent for making burgers.”

Lu Mian pursed her lips.

Gulp.
