204: Chapter 204 Still Failed

Lin Xiao sat in Lin Chuge's office. After downing two bottles of coffee, he was still quite energetic.

Seeing Lin Chuge return, he asked perplexedly, "Sister, you called me here today—is there something up?"

"Actually, there isn't anything too important."

Lin Chuge pointed to the mountain of documents on the nearby table. "While organizing materials these past few days, I thought these were things you needed to learn, so I didn't have them put away yet."

"Huh?"

Lin Xiao couldn't even believe his ears.

Conservatively estimated, there were two or three hundred documents!

He had to read them all?

He felt like he wouldn't be able to finish them even if he died!

"Um, Big Sister, I just remembered that I seem to have a class at school today. How about I just..."

Lin Xiao said with a serious face, intending to flee immediately.

But Lin Chuge directly produced a schedule of their major's courses. "I checked. You don't have any classes today."

"..."

As expected of a business mogul-level female CEO!

She was just too meticulous!

Lin Xiao laughed dryly. "Then, that must be a mistake on my part."

After saying that, he sat at the desk with a deathly pale face, despairingly flipping through the documents.

To be honest, he really didn't have any desire to inherit the company at all.

He just wanted to go back and lie down.

Furthermore, his sisters at home were all so capable.

They could completely support him while he just lay around at home...

"Sigh."

Lin Xiao let out a soft sigh, deciding that once he went back, he would beg his parents.

He wanted to see if they could help convince Lin Chuge to give up on the idea of grooming him.

He was flipping through the materials in a daze. He didn't know how much time had passed when the system's voice suddenly rang in his mind.

[Random temporary quest: Rescue the female bodyguard.]

This made Lin Xiao instantly sober up.

[Oh no, Assistant An is in trouble after all!]

[That perverted murderer is actually Assistant An's friend?]

[This is bad, this is bad, Assistant An is going to be tortured to death...]

Lin Xiao stood up abruptly, not having time to think of a better excuse.

He blurted out, "Big Sister, I just had a sudden hunch, and I realized that Assistant An is in danger!"

As he spoke, he also pretended to cast a spell.

However, in his view, since he had just tried to run away, this would most likely be dismissed as just another excuse.

But unexpectedly, Lin Chuge also stood up immediately and walked quickly toward the outside.

Upon reaching the door, she didn't forget to turn back and urge, "A-Xiao, let's go! We're going to save someone!"

"Uh, okay."

Lin Xiao was a bit stunned, but he followed immediately.

After getting in the car, Lin Chuge realized that she didn't actually know where An Luoluo had gone.

Lin Xiao sensed Lin Chuge's thoughts and immediately waved his hand. "Don't worry, let me calculate again!"

This time, he was actually calculating.

The Bagua disc in his mind spun rapidly, and soon it locked onto a direction.

"That way!"

"Vroom!"

Lin Chuge slammed her foot on the accelerator, and the car shot forward!

Amidst the intense G-force, Lin Xiao grabbed the handle with one hand and continued to point the way with the other.

Fortunately, there were few cars on the road at this time, and Lin Chuge's driving skills were quite good.

She wove continuously through the traffic.

On the other side, An Luoluo's current situation was indeed not good.

She opened her eyes groggily and found herself in a room.

The curtains were drawn, letting in a faint glimmer of light.

After struggling slightly, she discovered that her hands and feet were tightly bound, and her mouth was gagged.

Her original clothes had been removed and replaced with a very sexy nightgown.

Her phone had also been smashed and was lying to the side.

She...

Was she kidnapped by that perverted murderer?

An Luoluo panicked for a moment, but quickly calmed down and carefully pondered everything.

She only remembered that she had been on the phone comforting her sister Song Qingqing while rushing to the apartment where Song Qingqing lived.

Because Song Qingqing had previously said that the pervert was very likely still in her home, or somewhere nearby outside.

She had maintained a high level of vigilance ever since entering the residential complex.

That was how she arrived outside Song Qingqing's door.

Unexpectedly, the front door was open.

Looking through the crack in the door, the light inside was extremely dim.

An Luoluo walked in carefully, relying on her previous memory of the place, and felt her way toward the light switch.

But just at that moment, she heard a buzzing sound of electricity by her ear, followed immediately by a sharp pain in her neck, and her whole body went numb.

Then, she knew nothing more.

This made An Luoluo very annoyed.

She had clearly been prepared beforehand, so how did she still fall for it?

Fortunately, she had taken some precautions earlier.

Although this person had removed her clothes, they had not touched her jewelry.

She gently twisted the ring on her finger, clicking out a sharp point from the side.

She began to cut at the rope on her wrists, bit by bit.

She had bought this ring for fun previously, never expecting it would actually come in handy.

The rope on her wrists soon loosened, and she went to cut the ones on her feet.

But just then, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from the doorway.

Someone was coming?

An Luoluo immediately put her hands behind her back again, pretending to still be bound.

Soon, the door opened, and a figure slowly walked in.

An Luoluo opened her mouth, wanting to curse a few times, but when she saw the person's appearance, all her words were stuck in her throat.

In her eyes, there was only disbelief left.

The person who had come was actually her good sister, Song Qingqing.

And at this moment, Song Qingqing's attire was vastly different from usual.

That innocent girl who usually wore dresses was now wearing a set of black men's clothing.

Her eyes were filled with coldness, no longer holding any of her former gentleness.
