After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Seeing the Once Cheng Lie

Listening to the boy’s calm explanation, Yun Shifei grew anxious.

Even though Cheng Lie sounded normal, she couldn’t shake her worry. What if, at this moment, Qin Yumo suddenly appeared at the club, spotted a drunken Cheng Lie, and took the chance to pick a fight?

Yun Shifei couldn’t just sit by and do nothing.

She said to Cheng Lie, "Stay right where you are and don’t move. I’ll come find you in a bit."

Hearing Cheng Lie hum in agreement, Yun Shifei quickly threw on a coat, slipped into her shoes, and rushed out of the school to find him.

She flagged down a car in her haste and headed to the club Cheng Lie had mentioned.

Meanwhile, after hanging up the phone, Cheng Lie walked out of the private room.

At that moment, Zhao Pan, who had been stationed at the door, saw Cheng Lie step out and immediately approached him.

Recalling the woman who had just entered the room earlier, Cheng Lie asked, "That woman earlier—did you let her in?"

"She said she came to deliver something to you."

"And you didn’t even ask any questions?"

Zhao Pan was stunned.

Cheng Lie lowered his gaze. "Don’t let it happen again."

Zhao Pan quickly realized his mistake and immediately apologized, "Mr. Cheng, I’m sorry. I know her, and she’s quite close to the Fourth Master. I didn’t think too much about it..."

Who could’ve known the women here all have ulterior motives?

He thought she was simply delivering some drinks, but she also came with ulterior intentions—and even tried to throw herself at him!

At that moment, Zhao Pan swore to himself that next time, he would approach the management of the club and lay out some serious rules. Otherwise, if this kept happening, Cheng Lie would definitely lose his temper.

Cheng Lie stepped outside and looked at Zhao Pan. "Go handle your own matters first. I’ll sit out here for a while."

"That’s not possible, Mr. Cheng. I need to ensure your safety."

After all, Qin Yumo also frequented this club, and if the two of them happened to run into each other...

Though the odds were slim, just in case, especially with Cheng Lie having drunk alcohol now, he would definitely be no match for Qin Yumo.

Cheng Lie understood that Zhao Pan wouldn’t leave as long as his safety was in question.
