Chapter 195 Miss Met a Scammer
Chapter 195 Miss Met a Scammer
The silver-haired boy smiled when he heard Li Mengli say that.
He looked at Li Mengli in the mirror and shook his head.
He said in a very gentle tone:
"Hehe, you're too modest."
"Sometimes, it's a good thing to openly admit that you're really good."
He extended his hand very naturally as he said this.
He gently touched Li Mengli's head with his hand.
It was just a single, very light, and very natural movement.
It won't make anyone feel offended.
Instead, it gives people a just-right warmth, like an older brother next door caring for a younger sister.
When he touched her like that, Li Mengli's face turned completely red.
Her cheeks turned red all the way to the roots of her ears.
She sat on the dressing chair, her hands gripping the hem of her dress tightly.
Her heart started beating very, very fast.
She kept shouting loudly in her heart:
"Oh my god! How can he be so gentle! He's so good at it!"
"I really don't know what to do with this guy! What should I do? What should I do?"
Li Mengli felt like she was about to melt.
She sat there, her mind blank.
The silver-haired man seemed to be quite used to this kind of reaction.
He calmly walked to the dressing table and began preparing the makeup tools and products.
While preparing, he chatted with Li Mengli in a very relaxed tone.
Ask her what style she usually likes, and ask her if there's any makeup look she'd like to try.
Li Mengli forced herself to calm down and began to answer his questions seriously.
Meanwhile.
Directly opposite the Cat Plaza building where Li Mengli is located.
On the rooftop of another commercial building.
A man in a black suit was squatting on the edge of the rooftop.
A very professional piece of equipment was placed in front of him.
This device has a very large directional microphone and a high-magnification lens.
These devices can receive all the sound and images from the target location very clearly from a great distance.
The man in the black suit was wearing headphones.
The audio coming through the earphones was exactly what the silver-haired boy and Li Mengli had been saying in the makeup studio earlier.
The device clearly captured the boy's gentle voice and Li Mengli's shy laughter.
After listening to the entire conversation, the man in the black suit...
He played the silver-haired boy's voice again through his headphones.
He frowned.
Then, he took a cell phone out of his pocket.
He found a number in his contacts and pressed the dial button.
The phone rang once and was answered.
The man in the black suit spoke into his phone in a very serious tone:
"Boss, the young lady has been scammed."
……
the other side.
Nine o'clock in the morning, ten o'clock in the west.
Han City Tiandi, Zeran Flower Shop.
Li Ze had already arrived at the flower shop by this time.
He sat in that familiar chair, holding a freshly brewed cup of hot tea, sipping it slowly.
Although I woke up late this morning due to a hangover, I left home almost two hours later than usual.
Fortunately, there were other employees working normally in the flower shop, so the business was not affected.
However, Zhang Ruoran was definitely a little worried when he wasn't here.
Sure enough, not long after Li Ze sat down at the flower shop, his phone vibrated.
He picked it up and saw that it was a WeChat message sent by Zhang Ruoran.
Zhang Ruoran asked him in the message:
"Are you still sleeping? The latest chapter is packed with exciting plot twists! Come to Cola Novels! It's almost 10 o'clock."
Upon seeing this message, Li Ze quickly typed a reply on the screen:
"Yes, I'm already at the store. I was a little late, sorry."
After sending the message, Li Ze habitually looked up and glanced at the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Prince Xuan Restaurant diagonally across the street.
He spotted Zhang Ruoran standing behind the window at a glance.
Zhang Ruoran was also looking in the direction of the flower shop.
Their eyes met across the street.
When Zhang Ruoran saw Li Ze sitting in the flower shop, a relieved smile appeared on her face.
Looking at Zhang Ruoran's smile, Li Ze felt a warmth in his heart.
Immediately afterwards, the phone vibrated again.
Zhang Ruoran sent another WeChat message:
Did you see the message I sent you yesterday?
Li Ze certainly knew which message Zhang Ruoran was referring to.
It was the message she sent me around 10 p.m. last night, asking if he had forgotten about the fake reconciliation.
Li Ze replied very seriously:
"I'm so sorry, Ruoran. I drank too much last night and fell asleep in the car. I only saw your message this morning. But don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you."
Li Ze paused for a moment, then typed another line and sent it:
"And wait a minute, I'm going to your store to announce something big."
After seeing this message, Zhang Ruoran replied immediately:
"What's the big deal? Why are you being so secretive? Why don't you tell me beforehand?"
Li Ze smiled and typed back:
"No need to rush, I'll be at your store soon anyway, not long."
Zhang Ruoran replied with a pouting emoji, then sent a message:
"Alright then, I'll wait for your big event."
Li Ze looked at the few lines of conversation on his phone screen, a smile playing on his lips.
He felt that his relationship with Ruoran had indeed gotten better and better in the past few days.
Previously, Ruoran wouldn't even bother with him.
Now she's willing to proactively message him to ask if he's there, and she'll even look out the window to see if he's arrived at the store.
This feeling made Li Ze feel very satisfied.
He felt that his efforts over the past period were finally beginning to yield significant results.
Li Ze placed his phone on the table.
He picked up his teacup and took another big gulp of hot tea.
He silently thought to himself how to finalize the fake reconciliation with Ruoran when he went to Taizixuan's place, how many people to invite to dinner, and where to choose the wedding venue.
I was just thinking about it.
The phone on the table suddenly rang again.
However, this time it wasn't a WeChat message, but a phone call.
Li Ze picked up his phone and took a look.
The caller ID displayed two words: "Third Brother".
The third brother is a very special existence among his 100,000-strong cyborg army.
Unlike Lao Yi, Lao Yi's main responsibility is to protect Li Ze's safety closely, while also being in charge of command and dispatch.
The third brother's job was completely different.
The third brother is a cyborg specifically responsible for surveillance and intelligence gathering.
He has an exceptional ability to disguise himself and can remain in any place for a long time without being detected.
Moreover, besides intelligence gathering, the third brother has another very impressive talent.
That's assassination.
Among all the cyborgs under Li Ze's command, the third brother is definitely among the top three in terms of assassination ability.
Li Ze pressed the answer button and held the phone to his ear.
"Feed?"
On the other end of the phone, the third brother's voice was very calm and steady.
The third brother spoke first:
"Boss, the young lady has been scammed."
Upon hearing this, Li Ze froze in mid-air, holding the teacup in his hand.
"fraud?"
