Chapter 585 585: Did You Miss Me?



"Oh, really? You haven't lied to me?"

Su Chen pretended not to see through her lie and asked seriously.

"Of course, it's true. How could I possibly deceive Mr. Su?"

Thinking that Su Chen believed her, Qi Meng immediately breathed a sigh of relief and then said with affectionate eyes,

"Actually, I couldn't wish for anything more than to receive the affections of a man like Mr. Su!"

"Oh, is that so? That's really too bad."

Su Chen stood up, expressing regret verbally,

"It seems we can only wait for next time then."

Qi Meng also hurriedly got down from the table and then sat on the wicker chair.

"Mr. Su, I'm really sorry for the neglect."

At this moment, Shen Lin walked in from outside the house. When he saw the tea sets smashed all over the floor, he was stunned.

He thought to himself, I'd only been out for a few minutes, what on earth happened here?

"Young Master Shen, sorry about that. I wasn't careful while walking and knocked over the table, breaking the tea sets. I sincerely apologize."

Su Chen said with a smile.

"It's all right, it's just a set of tea service. If it's broken, it's broken."

Shen Lin said casually with a wave of his hand, but he was curious, as that was a solid wood table, what kind of walking could knock it over?

"Well, I have other things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Thank you for the tea, Young Master Shen."

As he said this, Su Chen was ready to leave.

"You're welcome."

Shen Lin replied and then glanced at Qi Meng,

"Miss Qi Meng, would you mind seeing Mr. Su out for me?"

"Sure."

Qi Meng nodded slightly, and then followed Su Chen out.

After escorting Su Chen to his car, Qi Meng said goodbye and was about to return.

"Wait a moment."

Just as she turned around, Su Chen's voice sounded.

"Does Mr. Su have anything else?"

Qi Meng looked at him puzzledly and asked.

Su Chen moved closer to her side, then leaned forward and asked softly by her ear,

"Miss Qi Meng, how have you been sleeping these past few days? Have you missed me?"

Upon hearing these words, Qi Meng's heart trembled, and her face flushed a deep red in an instant.

Because these last few days, she did find herself occasionally recalling the scenes from that night, especially the words he had said to her, which left her restless and unable to sleep.

Qi Meng's first instinct was to deny it, but thinking of her mission, she looked at him as if enchanted and said,

"Of course, I missed you so much that I couldn't sleep!"

"Is that so? I felt the same. All I could think about while trying to sleep was the image of Miss Qi Meng."

As these words were spoken, Qi Meng's heart became even more unsettled, and she hurriedly said:

"Mr. Su, please take your time leaving, I have some matters to attend to, so I will head back first."

After speaking, she immediately ran towards the teahouse...

In fact, the current situation was quite difficult and awkward for Qi Meng.

To win over the King of Netherworld, she could only use her body, and besides that, she didn't know what else she had to offer.

But this was not what she wanted, and what's more, her first attempt had been seen through by him; could she still succeed?

Yet, she had to complete the task given to her by the organization, because she knew the consequence of failure would be worse than death!

So, she had no choice but to play the game of emotions with the King of Netherworld, even though she knew she might be playing with fire.

Su Chen watched Qi Meng's hasty retreat, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled into a meaningful smile.

How could he not see Qi Meng's conflicting psychology, where she wanted to seduce him but also rejected such actions?

Moreover, he became even more curious about Qi Meng's identity. Although she took him to see Shen Lin today, making it seem like she was Shen Lin's person,

Su Chen simply didn't believe this, mainly for two reasons. The first was due to Qi Meng's strength; she was a high-level Qi Refinement Peak expert, not someone likely to serve under a young master like Shen Lin.

After all, Qi Refinement Peak is different from the Qi Refinement seventh, eighth, or ninth layers and is another level of existence, with a huge gap between them. Moreover, Qi Meng was one of the top experts among Qi Refinement Peak experts, which made it even less likely.

In Su Chen's estimation, her strength could probably even match that of the Clown.

Moreover, it was obvious that there was someone behind Qi Meng pressing her, and he didn't think Shen Lin had the power to force a Qi Refinement Peak expert to offer herself willingly.

If all this was just Su Chen's speculation, another point solidified his thoughts even further.

That was the fact that Qi Meng had once attempted to assassinate Su Chen. It was known that at that time, Shen Lin probably hadn't even heard the name Su Chen, let alone known him, so how could he have commanded Qi Meng to kill him?

This clearly indicated that besides Shen Lin, there was another person or force behind Qi Meng!

What Su Chen didn't understand was why this person or force wanted to kill him at first, and now was trying every means to win him over, even not hesitating to offer Qi Meng's body!

What prompted their change in attitude, and what exactly were they plotting?

That was the real issue that concerned Su Chen.

However, Su Chen knew he wouldn't understand by just thinking about it now. Fortunately, he had already chosen his breakthrough point, which was Qi Meng!

Soon after returning to the company, Su Chen left work. He went straight to the market, bought some groceries, and cooked a meal.

After Lin Ruoxue came back, the two of them had dinner together and then sat on the sofa to chat leisurely for a while.

During this time, Lin Ruoxue did mention one thing, suggesting they hire a maid since they were both busy at times.

Su Chen naturally had no objections and let her handle it as she saw fit.

After chatting for a while, Lin Ruoxue continued to work upstairs, while Su Chen also returned to his room for cultivation.

The next day, rather than going to the company, Su Chen went to the manor. He felt that he was close to breaking through to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refinement, so he needed to set up the formation in the manor as soon as possible to aid in his successful breakthrough!

This time, Su Chen did not go through Qin Ming to find the materials but had Lone Wolf handle it, and the materials had just arrived that day.

With previous experience, Su Chen set up the small Gathering Yuan Formation even more smoothly this time, completing the setup by two or three in the afternoon!

Maybe because it was near a lake, the Yuan Qi in the manor was slightly denser than that in the villa area.

Feeling the robust True Yuan, Su Chen felt extremely refreshed and comfortable!

Su Chen thought that he needed to find an opportunity to return to the Nether Temple to help them set up formations, which would increase the cultivation speed of the brothers there as well.

Right, and also set up a few formations at the Shadow Guard base in the Amazon Jungle. He couldn't play favorites, after all!

Having thought all this through, Su Chen began cultivating in one of the rooms of the manor, and before he knew it, it was eight or nine o'clock in the evening...
