After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 242 - 243: Wait for Me to Find You (7)

President Qin hung up the phone with a not-so-great expression, and Lu Li, who followed along, could clearly sense that this man was on the verge of losing his temper.

However, President Qin has always been someone who doesn’t show his emotions, yet after meeting Lou Xi, every joy and sorrow was written on his face.

When things were going well with Lou Xi, the whole company seemed to be celebrating, with the boss occasionally handing out red envelopes.

If President Qin wasn’t getting along with Lou Xi, then the entire company was shrouded in a depressive atmosphere, resulting in singles working overtime all the time, with no chance to find a partner.

At this moment, Lu Li sensed that President Qin was unhappy, wondering who would be the next to suffer.

Oh, they were preparing to head to a dinner gathering, arranged by Qin Sheng, who said it was a chance to eat together with family and friends as National Day approached and mentioned bringing Lu Li along since his family is abroad, making him quite lonely on his own.

But both President Qin and Lu Li knew that tonight’s dinner wasn’t going to be as simple as an ordinary meal gathering. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The two of them got out of the car, and President Qin answered Lou Xi’s call. Although his tone remained amiable, his expression grew increasingly grim.

Lu Li just wanted to escape quickly, pretending he didn’t know anything about the matter.

But then...

"Lu Li." President Qin called out softly to Lu Li, his tone devoid of any ripple.

"Oh man, my stomach is killing me. I’ll go to the restroom first." At this moment, the best strategy is to flee.

"Pretending! If you keep pretending, I’ll pack you in a plastic bag." President Qin rarely made such jokes, causing chills down Lu Li’s spine, thus fleeing became the worst strategy.

"President Qin, there are certain things you have to face yourself; us subordinates can’t help."

"We’re friends."

"..." Who the hell wants to be friends with you!

Lu Li thought to himself.

"Tonight’s dinner, you help me attend, and I’ll arrange two months... forget it, one month off for you." President Qin thought about it and decided to give Lu Li just one month of vacation.

"Two months, or no deal!" Lu Li felt he had to fight for his vacation.

"Half a month."

"Damn it, President Qin you..."

"Ten days."

"Deal." Lu Li feared that if he continued negotiating, President Qin wouldn’t even give him ten days off, and yet he’d still have to attend the dinner, which would be a loss.

"Thanks, then I’ll go now; you handle whatever comes up."

"..." Handle it? Handle what exactly.

But in the end, Lu Li could only watch President Qin’s back leaving, as he boldly walked alone into the private room.

He felt resentment in his heart, yet what could he do when President Qin said: We’re friends.

Sigh, friends are exactly the ones to be exploited at times like these.

Lu Li had done similar things anyway.

Opening the door, Lu Li saw there were already over a dozen people seated inside, and at a glance, he recognized them all.

The old master and madam of the Qin Family, the old master and madam of the Shen Family, as well as Shen Ruozhuo, and people from the Xi Family were there too.

It truly seemed like they didn’t think the situation was chaotic enough, gathering everyone together.

Qin Sheng noticed Lu Li was the only one who came, his brow slightly furrowed and asked, "Where’s Mo Bai?"

Lu Li immediately plastered on a smile, greeting everyone one by one and said, "The traffic was awful today; Mo Bai must still be stuck in traffic. I walked here!"

Anyone who believed Lu Li’s words would be seeing ghosts!
