After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1324: Chapter 1328: Didn’t I Take Advantage Too?

Walking back to the driver’s side, he opened the car door and sat inside, started the car, and immediately turned it around. Without even glancing at the Battle Shield Vehicle parked on the road, he drove away along the road he had come from.

Xu Xia opened the paper bag in her hand, took out a grilled chicken wing, and took a bite. Although her stomach was growling, she found it hard to swallow. Forcing the meat down her throat, she turned her face to look at Leng Zirui, ”Today... thank you!”

Leng Zirui turned the car onto the international road, glanced sideways at her, and lifted his lips in a slight smile.

With his cleverness, he could naturally see that she was deliberately playing him.

Knowing she’s still mad at him for what happened that night, that’s why she’s acting this way, Leng Zirui didn’t get mad at her for it; instead, he formally reminded her.

His job nature dictates that he often cannot help himself, so if he has time, she could mess with him as she liked. But given the recent circumstances, he really doesn’t have much time for such frivolities.

”I know, I was indeed very rude that night. However, I hope you don’t misunderstand; I absolutely had no intention of toying with you,” Leng Zirui took a deep breath, ”Now, I might as well be honest with you. I have been tracking Tang Ming and Seo Fei all along. That night, because of your sudden appearance, to prevent them from uncovering, I acted that way towards you. Of course, I know that I indeed desecrated you in doing so, and if these events hurt you, I apologize.”

Although it’s inconvenient for him to disclose specific details to her, now that Tang Ming is dead and Seo Fei has been caught, Leng Zirui felt it necessary to explain.

After all, this matter is definitely his fault initially.

”I might be deployed on missions at any moment, and when I’m on a mission, it’s impossible to split my attention. Don’t play like this next time; it’s too dangerous. If something really happens, I wouldn’t be able to explain to Xiao Qian.”

These words were not spoken in jest by Leng Zirui; his tone was formal and serious.

”You were carrying out missions all the time?!” Xu Xia looked surprised.

”Yes.” Leng Zirui nodded lightly, ”We’ve long known that Tang Ming and Seo Fei were up to no good and could harm Xiao Qian and my brother, but circumstances at the time made it inconvenient to tell you.”

No wonder he coincidentally appeared at the club last time.

No wonder he had to be her escort for the press conference.

No wonder he acted that way at the film festival...

Xu Xia naturally felt a surge of regret. He had been protecting Xiao Qian’s family all along, while she was deceived by Tang Ming and misunderstood him, doing such excessive things.

”Leng Zirui, I’m sorry, I misunderstood you before.”

”No big deal!” Leng Zirui laughed nonchalantly, ”After all... I did gain quite a bit, didn’t I?”

Xu Xia’s face flushed red, her voice tinged with embarrassment, ”How dare you say that?!”

”Well, it’s not quite like that now, is it? Not just anyone can kiss this young master!” Leng Zirui laughed.

”Shameless!” Xu Xia directly threw the half-eaten chicken wing in her hand over.

”Thanks!” Leng Zirui raised his hand to catch it, immediately brought it to his mouth, and was about to eat.

”Hey!” Xu Xia hurriedly stopped him, ”I already bit it!”

Leng Zirui unhesitatingly bit off a piece of meat, ”We’ve kissed, why would I mind you being dirty?”

With a casual remark, he made her heart skip a beat.

Xu Xia picked up another chicken wing and brought it to her mouth, once again recalling that kiss from the other night.
