Chapter 404: I’ll see you soon.

Chapter 404

Shi Ning's assistant was scared out of her wits, her face ghastly pale: "I, I didn't do anything!"

But the bodyguard had already come over to snatch away her folder, and her phone in the assistant's hand fell to the ground with a "slap". Discover new chapters at novelhall.com

The screen of the phone broke immediately on impact with the ground, looking especially harsh in the refracted sunlight.

Rong Dai frowned slightly, looking at Shi Ning before her and her assistant, always feeling something was not right.

"What were you just filming?"

The bodyguard had a large build, his face stoic and rather intimidating as he asked Shi Ning's assistant in a hoarse voice.

"I, I wasn't filming anything."

The assistant was frightened and flustered as she explained in a pale face.

"Ms Rong, what does your bodyguard mean by this?"

Shi Ning blocked the assistant behind her in one move, her face furious as she questioned Rong Dai.

Rong Dai looked at the bodyguard, knowing he was professionally trained and would not make trouble out of nothing.

"I guess because I get kidnapped so often, my bodyguard tends to be a bit paranoid."

"I apologize on his behalf. Since the phone is broken, I will replace it with a new one for this young lady."

Her voice was calm, not panicked.

The bodyguard also knew how to read the situation and immediately picked up the broken phone.

Shi Ning's timely appearance and sudden anger, along with her calm departure, were all rather unusual.

Although she and Shi Ning did not interact much, Shi Ning did not seem like someone prone to anger.

In other words, even if she was dissatisfied with Rong Dai herself, she would not have shown it so clearly.

Otherwise, back at the He family wine cottage when she saw Rong Dai talking with Ha Wei, Shi Ning would have reacted then.

Shi Ning's behavior today was a bit abnormal, not her usual style.

After the two left, she looked around, it was noon closing time so more and more people were out.

"Let's go."

She looked at her watch for the time and got in the car with her bodyguard.

"Madam, I was rash."

Once in the car, the bodyguard immediately apologized.

Rong Dai shook her head: "I believe in your professional capabilities, what did you discover earlier?"

She trusted the people Huo Shao Ting placed by her side.

The bodyguard's brows furrowed deeply: "She was probably filming earlier. The president instructed me on some matters, so I was extra vigilant of Brocade Embroidery Workshop's people."

"But when I had a professional unlock and check her phone just now, there were no recorded videos."

That's why he apologized to Rong Dai.
