Chapter 198: Chapter 198: I Met Mr. Clown! (Seeking Recommendations)
Chu Xiaoran came back very late last night and was a bit frightened, so she hid in her room and went to sleep upon returning to the villa. While sleeping, she dreamt of Xiao Zheng wearing a white clown mask.
In her dream, she was in a desolate plain with sparse grass, under a gloomy sky with low-hanging dark clouds. The howling wind across the wilderness sounded like wailing ghosts, and it was utterly terrifying.
Chu Xiaoran felt a surge of intense fear in her heart, panicked and started running, but after only a few steps, she tripped over a tuft of grass and fell to the ground.
Just as Chu Xiaoran was preparing to stand up, suddenly, countless monsters appeared around her, with glowing green eyes and teeth flashing cold light.
They issued sinister roars and lunged at Chu Xiaoran with their claws outstretched.
Chu Xiaoran screamed in terror, feeling an icy chill in her heart, but at that moment, the mysterious person wearing the white clown mask suddenly descended from the sky.
In a few exchanges, he had already dealt with all of these monsters.
"Mr. Clown..." Chu Xiaoran watched the scene, murmuring softly, and reached out to grab the hand of the clown, but then, the figure wearing the white clown mask gradually faded and then disappeared.
"Mr. Clown!"
Chu Xiaoran cried out in confusion and fear, suddenly sitting up with a start, and just then, she was hit by the glaring sunlight and couldn’t help squinting.
When she opened her eyes, she realized that she was sitting in her bed, in her room.
"So, it was all just a dream..."
Chu Xiaoran muttered, her eyes still carrying a reminiscent expression. She sat on the bed dazedly for a while, then suddenly threw off the covers and shuffled over to Leng Ruobing’s door in her little pink slippers, knocking on it, thunk thunk.
"Sis, hurry and open the door."
Chu Xiaoran called out loudly.
With a creak, the door opened, and Leng Ruobing rubbed her eyes and looked at Chu Xiaoran, asking, "Xiao Ran, what are you calling me for so early?"
It was still very early, and Leng Ruobing had not yet gotten out of bed. Her hair was tousled, she was wearing a loose nightgown, and large areas of her fair skin were exposed. Her sleepy eyes made her look like an innocent deer, a complete departure from her usual icy demeanor, and it was charming in a different way.
Chu Xiaoran pushed the door open and entered, heading straight for Leng Ruobing’s bed to hug a white stuffed toy, and whispered to Leng Ruobing mysteriously, "Sis, I saw Mr. Clown again last night!"
Leng Ruobing was in the middle of closing the door. Upon hearing this, she was startled and accidentally pinched her own finger. Crying out in pain, she quickly withdrew her finger, which was already reddened from the pinch.
"Sis, are you okay?" Chu Xiaoran hurriedly asked.
"It’s fine, it’s fine. Don’t worry about that. What did you just say, Mr. Clown appeared yesterday? Tell me what happened," Leng Ruobing demanded, her drowsy eyes suddenly sparkling with excitement as she stared at Chu Xiaoran.
She quickly walked to the bed, climbed on, and sat cross-legged, imitating Chu Xiaoran by holding a large stuffed toy, then urged, "Come on, speak up. What happened exactly?"
Chu Xiaoran giggled, "Sis, you’re acting like those fangirls right now."
Leng Ruobing chided, "You brat, if you keep talking nonsense, I’ll tickle you," she threatened, reaching out her hand, ready to tickle her.
Chu Xiaoran quickly begged for mercy, "Stop, I can’t tickle you back. I’ll talk, I’ll talk. Is that okay?"
Clearly, Chu Xiaoran had often been at a disadvantage under Leng Ruobing’s hands before and was now afraid.
"Last night, when I was going home after the business performance and passed through an alley, suddenly, more than a dozen black-clad assassins jumped out. They didn’t say a word and just charged at me."
Speaking of last night’s events, Chu Xiaoran was still frightened, shaking slightly. Seeing this, Leng Ruobing threw aside the stuffed toy and embraced Chu Xiaoran.
She spoke softly, "What happened after that?"
Chu Xiaoran said, "Then Mr. Clown appeared, and when those black-clad assassins charged over, he just fell from the sky, standing there.
"And then, Mr. Clown took Ah Bai and me and flew over their heads, put us in a safe place, and fought with those assassins by himself,
saying that those people were nothing to him. I originally wanted to stay there, but Ah Bai insisted on dragging me away."
As she spoke, a hint of regret flashed across Chu Xiaoran’s face.
"You must have been terrified at the time," Leng Ruobing said as she touched Chu Xiaoran’s hair.
"No," Chu Xiaoran shook her head, "I was indeed scared at first, but after Mr. Clown appeared, I wasn’t afraid anymore. I didn’t expect him to save me yet again,
Sister, who do you think this person is? Why does he want to save us?"
Leng Ruobing shook her head too and said, "I don’t know either."
Thinking of Mr. Clown, Leng Ruobing also felt a slight tremor in her heart. That time when she and Chu Xiaoran were in danger, Mr. Clown had descended from the sky to save them, leaving a deep impression.
Like a superhero, mysterious, powerful, giving an unparalleled sense of security.
Very few women could resist this feeling.
"Right, what about Xiao Zheng? Wasn’t he with you?" Suddenly, a name popped into Leng Ruobing’s mind, and she quickly asked.
"Him? I don’t know where he ran off to." Chu Xiaoran said huffily, "He slipped away during my interview."
"But speaking of which, this time at the commercial performance, it was really thanks to Xiao Zheng. You don’t know how dangerous it was at the time."
After a pause, Chu Xiaoran excitedly recounted the events that had happened during the performance and then said, "I had no idea that Xiao Zheng was such a talented singer!"
After listening, Leng Ruobing was slightly startled.
Suddenly, she felt Xiao Zheng was very mysterious.
With exceptional driving skills, a gift for singing, and seemingly a mysterious past, shrouded in a fog that made him inscrutable.
"This feeling, it’s a bit like Mr. Clown," Leng Ruobing thought. However, she immediately shook her head vigorously, "Impossible, Xiao Zheng’s lethargic demeanor, it’s too far removed from Mr. Clown’s aura of power."
Not the same person at all!
"Speaking of which, sister, I feel so strange, in such a short time, we’ve been through two assassination attempts. Who are those people really? Normally, we haven’t offended anyone."
Chu Xiaoran continued, "Although Mr. Clown saved us, I’m still a bit scared, worried whether these people will keep showing up."
Speaking of this, the young girl felt a bit afraid, after all, this was the second assassination attempt in such a short period of time.
Leng Ruobing, hearing this, also slightly furrowed her brows, her eyes showing a trace of sharpness, "I will definitely investigate these matters."
As the president of Qianqiu Group, she was no pushover!
Not someone that others could easily mess with.
One must remember, to survive and thrive in the cruel environment of the business battlefield, she naturally had her unique skills!
