Chapter 480: This Is Not a Precedent!_1

"I believe you this time, but don't let it happen again!"

Chu Ran chuckled secretly within, and after dashing out of the room, a sly smile crept over his lips. That should have given that man quite a scare, right?

Zhou Yuan dared not reveal the truth, which wasn't surprising. It meant he was truly afraid of angering her, and had fabricated a lie full of holes.

What mattered most was that Zhou Yuan's intentions remained the same; whenever he lied to her, his face would still blush.

And one had to know, when intimidating those bigwigs, Zhou Yuan was an old hand at lying.

The sudden turn of events left Zhou Yuan unsettled for a long time. What on earth was Chu Ran up to?

He wanted to follow and ask for clarity, but Qing Ning was still in that room, so he could only smile wryly and give up on the idea.

Come morning, he'd assess the situation first. If Chu Ran was still sulking, he'd look for other ways to address it.
