Chapter 291: Chapter 292 Zhen Nuo

Zhen Nuo’s brows twitched. She stared at me without blinking and asked with a faint of confusion, “So, you are Lady Chu Yuan’s…”

She deliberately paused, making me feel very awkward. “I am her elder brother…” I said impatiently.

“You are Chu Nan. Mr. Chu?!” the disbelief on her face when she heard my words was a great mockery to me. I didn’t know why she would have this kind of expression.

“You know me?”

“No,” Zhen Nuo seemed to be aware of her rudeness, and hurriedly took off the huge pair of sunglasses. She smiled awkwardly and said, “it’s just that I used to hear Lady Chu Yuan talk about you.”

Seeing the full appearance of her, Dong Xiaoye and I were shocked again, because this woman had obvious bruises on the corner of her left eye, and the tiny cut on the skin was still oozing blood, which caused her unable to open her left eye fully. Moreover, her eyes were bloodshot.

Clearly, she had been hit by someone. No wonder she was wearing those big sunglasses. For a beautiful woman, this was indeed a bit unsightly. However, to me, I felt that her uninjured right eye was even more unsightly because it was sharp and bright. Moreover, it gave me a feeling that she was sighing that my fame had fallen short of the truth. It honestly made me want to punch her in the face.

Why the hell was she showing the disappointment and irony on her face? !

“You heard Chu Yuan talk about him?” Dong Xiaoye’s question was the same as mine. I didn’t understand why she called Chu Yuan ‘Lady’, but from the way she called me “mister” and the sudden change of her attitude, it was not difficult to notice that something wasn’t right. It seemed that the respect she tried to show was not for me, nor because of Chu Yuan, but my name.

Zhen Nuo again ignored Dong Xiaoye, raised the corners of her mouth and showed a smile she didn’t seem to be used to, and said to me, “Mr. Chu, is Lady Chu Yuan home?”

I instinctively became vigilant, “why are you looking for her?”

Chu Yuan was still a teenage girl. If she really knew a woman like Zhen Nuo, how could she not tell me? Perhaps feeling my hostility, Zhen Nuo smiled and said, “No, I’m here to find Dongfang Lianren.”

Speaking of Dongfang’s name, I clearly saw the anger from Zhen Nuo’s eyes. My heart immediately skipped a beat, and I immediately realized who those people were. So those people were the people that Chu Yuan told me over the phone, and they were here to catch Dongfang!

I stayed calm and said, “Dongfang? If you want to find her, why don’t you go to her house? Why do you come to our flat? ”

Zhen Nuo shook her head and smiled, “she is not at home…”

I disliked the look in this woman’s eyes because whenever I looked at her, I had the feeling of looking in a mirror. “Then go to her school.”

“She is not at school either…”

“Then you think she is definitely at my flat?” I angrily said, “Miss Zhen, right? Let me ask you, are you accusing me of hiding her in my flat?”

“No,” Zhen Nuo was still young after all. Seeing me getting angry, a little timidity flashed in her eyes, there was also a trace of disgust and contempt for a rude man. “I just think she would come here because she and Lady Chu Yuan are best friends…”

“You think she would come here? So you are going to take down my door and break into my flat?” I still questioned her aggressively. “Are you underestimating me, or underestimating the laws of this country? Putting on such a show, who are you trying to impress? Miss Zhen, has no one ever taught you what manners are? You can stop wasting my time, and just tell me what you want to say.”

Zhen Nuo was completely choked off by my words. Her face flushed with shame and anger, but she didn’t know how to refute me. At this moment, a bodyguard-like man came out and shouted at me, “watch what you are saying! Your younger sister is not in school, and your parents’ house is empty. Where else can they go except here?”

My parents’ house was empty? These words made me even angrier. When I saw the arrogant appearance of the other party again, I already had the desire to fight.

“Watch what you are saying!” Dong Xiaoye’s temper was even hotter than mine. She threw her fist to knock away the strong man’s hand that was pointing at me. The strength was so powerful that the strong man couldn’t help but show a shocked expression. Then Sister Tiger pointed back at him and said fiercely, “just because you think that they might be here, you want to break into other people’s flat? Do you want to commit a crime? Are you not scared of the police? Show me all your IDs!”

Sister Tiger showed her police officer badge. The three people were immediately stunned.

“A policewoman?” Zhen Nuo came back to her senses, looked Dong Xiaoye up and down, and said to herself, “So it’s you…”

Dong Xiaoye glared at her, “What did you say? !”

“I didn’t say anything.” Zhen Nuo finally paid attention to Dong Xiaoye and smiled, “this officer, did I break into any flat? If not, why did you accuse me of committing a crime? I mean I did say to take down the door, but I was just joking, and I didn’t even say whose door it was. However, all of us heard it clearly that you are slandering me.”

These words made Dong Xiaoye unable to speak for a moment. After all, she was a police officer. Unlike me, she would have a lot of trouble if someone filed a complaint against her.

But… ‘so it’s you?’ And what exactly did this mean? It seemed like Zhen Nuo knew Sister Tiger… Who was this woman exactly? There were more and more questions, I couldn’t figure it out at all, but now it was not the time to think about those questions. This damn woman, she even threatened Sister Tiger!

“Should I open the door and invite you in?” I sneered, “If there is no one in my flat, then what? And also…”

I glanced at the two bodyguards, and said to Zhen Nuo, “bringing two men to my flat to cause trouble to me, you have seriously disturbed my peaceful life and ruined my mood at the moment. If that’s how you want to play, then fine! I will play with you to the end! “After that, I took out the key and handed it to Sister Tiger, “Xiaoye, open the door and let them in. If they can’t find anyone, I will trouble you to call in backups, I don’t mind going to the station with those people!”

A flash of panic Zhen Nuo had did not escape Dong Xiaoye’s eyes. She glanced at me gratefully and took the key in my hand. After pushing Zhen Nuo away, she went to the door and opened the security door. “What are you still staring at? Don’t you want to come in?”

Hearing the words, the bodyguard who couldn’t speak fluent Mandarin wanted to get into the flat to search, but he was stopped by Zhen Nuo. She looked at me with hesitation, as if she wanted to see something from my face.

“What? Are you afraid?” I provoked, “You don’t want to search my flat now? Well, that’s too bad, you have to search my flat now. I don’t know what makes you think that I would keep Dongfang that brat in my flat, but I have to prove it today, otherwise, who knows what would happen to my flat next time.”

It didn’t matter whether Zhen Nuo suspected that I was bluffing. What was important was that she would definitely hesitate.

“I’m sorry, I want to make a call first.” Zhen Nuo didn’t answer me. She actually avoided my questions and went up to the fifth floor.

“Do you want to run away?” Dong Xiaoye instinctively thought she was going to run away. She took a small step, wanting to chase her. But the two big men blocked the stairs and stopped her.

Dong Xiaoye said angrily, “what are you doing? Get out of my way!”

Seeing the bodyguards ignored her, Dong Xiaoye was even angrier. Before she wanted to use force, I quickly pulled her. “Forget it, if she really wants to run away, she wouldn’t go upstairs.”

From how the two strong men behaved, they were obviously well-trained professional bodyguards. And those who could hire such bodyguards were definitely not ordinary people. Dong Xiaoye was a policewoman, in her eyes, there were only criminals and citizens. But I was different. Because I might really be harboring a criminal right now. If my guess was not wrong, Zhen Nuo’s injury was most likely caused by Dongfang that brat. After causing such an injury to her, no wonder she wanted to catch her!

In just a minute or so, Zhen Nuo came back, ignoring Dong Xiaoye for the third time, and bowed slightly to me, “Mr. Chu, I was too reckless today, and I sincerely apologize to you for it. But if you, or your little sister, Lady Chu Yuan, know the whereabouts of Dongfang Lianren, please let us know.”

I didn’t know who she called, or what she said on the phone, and I didn’t even know why she suddenly gave up and apologized to me, but I liked this result. Otherwise, if they really searched the flat, they would definitely discover Dongfang that brat, “Can I ask, who are you? Why are you looking for Dongfang?”

“Does this count as a reason?” Zhen Nuo pointed to the injury on the corner of her eye and smiled: “But Mr. Chu can rest assured that I will not do anything to her, I just need an apology from her.”

Was it really just for an apology? I didn’t believe in this woman. The first reason was that if it could be solved by an apology, I didn’t think Dongfang, that brat would want to run away from her. The second reason was that if what she wanted was really just an apology, why would she bring two bodyguards with her? And the third reason was… she didn’t answer my question. She didn’t tell me who she was.
