Chapter 258 What’s wrong, baby?
Chu He had just knocked his hand away when the phone on the bedside table rang. It was Xiao Cheng.
Xiao Cheng raised his chin in the direction of the phone, motioning her to get it for her.
Chu He rolled her eyes at him, but still helped him get the phone.
The phone call lasted nearly twenty minutes, and the man went to the balcony to answer the call. It was obvious that he didn't want Chu He to hear the content of the call.
When he hung up the phone and came in, there was no trace of the woman in the bedroom.
He saw her changed white shirt on the bed, and the cosmetics he had prepared for her on the dressing table. The bottles and jars that were originally neatly arranged now showed obvious signs of use.
Xiao Cheng shook his head helplessly. Knowing that the bodyguards would be guarding the door 24 hours a day, he was not worried at all that Chu He would run away.
Sure enough, when he arrived at the living room downstairs, the woman had already buried her head in the sofa pillow and was pounding it.
He was still mumbling something.
When Chu He heard the footsteps, she immediately stopped what she was doing and turned around to look fiercely at the man coming down from upstairs.
Then the pillow in her hand flew towards the man.
"What are you laughing at? What the hell are you laughing at..."
Xiao Cheng himself thinks he is quite mean and he likes her little temper.
I don’t know when it started, but when he scolds me, I just feel good and refreshed.
The man suppressed his laughter, and his tone was doting and coaxing.
"what happened, Babe?"
Chu He was acting fiercely, but when Xiao Cheng called her "baby", her momentum disappeared instantly.
She softened instantly, and was completely unaware of the obvious change in her tone.
"You finally came down. What's wrong with the bodyguards at the door? They don't say a word when I ask them. I have something else to do and need to go to the gallery, but they won't let me go."
Xiao Cheng walked over, sat down beside her, and lifted her up to sit on his lap.
"My people naturally only obey my orders. That includes you. Be obedient and stay here for a few days. Wait until I have dealt with things outside before you leave, so that I don't have to worry."
"But I have other things to do at the gallery. The exhibition is really urgent, and I'm afraid I won't have enough time. You don't know, during the live broadcast that day, someone gave me millions of gifts in order to trick me. I was so angry that I almost died."
Xiao Cheng's expression changed slightly, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
"Don't worry, your exhibition won't be affected. As for the troublemaker... maybe he saw that you, Boss Chu, are both beautiful and talented, and wanted to attract your attention. He's jealous."
Chu He knew that he was comforting himself, but there was no progress in the search for Liu Er, and he could not find any clues about the top brother who gave him gifts to cheat him.
If these two people are not dealt with, even if the exhibition is held, there is no guarantee that no accidents will happen.
Just thinking about it makes her feel overwhelmed. How can she not be anxious?
Chu He frowned slightly again.
With only a few days left for the art exhibition, no one knew what kind of immortal Liu Er was that could disappear without a trace.
Meng Qi called Chu He and said that the account that gave millions of gifts during the live broadcast was actually a new account registered temporarily.
Logically speaking, the platform requires real-name registration, so it should be easy to check, but the strange thing is that the live broadcast platform kept the person's information confidential so strictly that even internal staff could not find out any information.
It is difficult to judge whether this person is an enemy or a friend. He is an unknown threat to both herself and the gallery.
But then again, who would be so stupid as to spend millions of dollars on gifts just to use Liu Er's participation in the exhibition as an excuse to screw himself?
The more Chu He thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. If they were deliberately targeting her, wouldn't it be more direct to just spend millions of dollars to hire a group of internet trolls to flood the public screen with slander?
But the news of Liu Er's participation in the exhibition has already been released. If it is suddenly said at this time that Liu Er will not participate in the exhibition, those fans will definitely not buy it.
Not only will a large amount of initial investment be lost, but the reputation accumulated by the gallery over the years will also be seriously affected.
Chu He collapsed in the man's arms like a deflated ball, allowing him to hold her.
He muttered quietly, "The key figure is Master Liu Er. I was really tricked by that person."
Xiao Cheng raised his eyebrows, his tone showing a hint of interest: "If you want to know so much, why not ask me directly?"
