Chapter 3933: A Perfect Match (129)

“Hello?” Qin Zhou’s sleepy voice came from the other end.

He was relatively free during this period. After he had settled Hua Jin’s matter, he gave himself a long vacation, so he had been sleeping early.

“Qin Zhou!” Liang Yin cried out nervously, “Qin Zhou, something bad has happened!”

“… ???” Qin Zhou was so drowsy that he wasn’t quite clear if it was Hua Jin or Liang Yin who was calling him. He grunted. “What is it?”

“Hua Jin… Hua Jin has been held captive.”

“What happened?” Qin Zhou muttered irritably, “Just tell me exactly what it is, in short.”

Liang Yin held her breath and summarized the matter.

Qin Zhou ruffled his hair irritably, but his voice was calm. “Wait for me at the bar. I’ll be right there.”

“I… I don’t have any money with me,” Liang Yin muttered weakly.

The cabbie heard her and raised an eyebrow, alarmed. “You don’t have any money for a cab?”

“Someone will pay my fare!”

On the other end, Qin Zhou heard this and said, “What a mess… Take the taxi to my place first. Ming City Apartments. I’ll wait for you downstairs.”

“Okay.”

Liang Yin gave the address to the driver. The driver muttered a few words angrily and headed towards Ming City Apartments.

When the car arrived at Ming City Apartments building, Qin Zhou opened the car door and got into the taxi.

Once in the car, without another word, the manager told the address to the driver, “Soho Bar.”

“What? Go back to the same place?” The driver was getting frustrated. “Are you guys messing with me?”

The manager narrowed his eyes and gave him an irritated look. “If you keep going on about it, I’ll file a complaint against you.”

“…” The driver didn’t say anything more. The car turned around and headed straight for the bar.

Liang Yin sat beside him and glanced at him cautiously. She saw that Qin Zhou had changed into his casual attire. However, perhaps it was because he had just gotten out of bed that his hair was still a little messy.

He smelled faintly of peppermint. She wondered where that fragrance came from.

Aware of Liang Yin’s surreptitious scrutiny, he glanced back at her. Unable to resist, he reached out and pinched her cheek, saying,

“The nonsense you were up to! It’s in the middle of the night and Instead of sleeping or working on your script, you go hanging out in a bar. How leisurely.”

For some reason, Liang Yin instinctively feared Qin Zhou. Despite the fact that Qin Zhou was very young and was Hua Jin’s manager, and that he was also very handsome, she had never dared to look at him directly. Perhaps it was because he had the air of a leader who could command authority without losing his cool.

“It’s boring to memorize scripts…”

“So you think it’s okay for you to hang out in bars just because you’re bored?”

The manager snorted. “It’s one thing for Hua Jin to fool around in a place as messy as a bar, but you’re playing along. In the end, I’m the one cleaning up the mess.”

Liang Yin bit her lip guiltily.

“Who is the man holding Hua Jin captive?”

Liang Yin held her tongue for a long time, but could not give a proper explanation of things. She only said, “I don’t know him either.”

“I wouldn’t have expected you to.”

With an exasperated sigh, Qin Zhou reached for his pack of cigarettes, took one out, put it in his mouth, and lit it.

The minty smoke filled the car interior.

The driver said, “You can’t smoke in the car.”

Qin Zhou replied, “Just drive and mind your own business.”

“Alright.”

Liang Yin cursed silently in her heart. People with powerful auras, no matter where they were, someone like Qin Zhou, for example, would almost always have their last say.
