Good Morning Miss Undercover Chapter 5

As a result, the current situation was: The me, who have been thrown aside and unable to insert a word from the beginning, seemed to have fallen into some trap – waiting like a monkey locked in zoo to be beaten by people. Isn’t it just like a zoo? Deng Long and Su Jing Wei were sitting opposite me, happily waiting for me to be abused.

I was sitting motionlessly. At the side was sitting my quiet enemy who didn’t utter a word. I was suffering.

“Didn’t you want to eat a midnight snack?” The Kang handsome beside me suddenly spoke up, indicating them to leave. His voice possessed a natural imposingness.

“Yes. How come we forgot about it?” The two opposite, carrying traces of smiles, very coordinately stood up and went out.

Great. Zoo was going to close and kill the monkey.

Being struck by a smart idea, with a whoosh, I stood up and wanted to follow the suit and slip away. But the voice behind me ,once again, spoke up.

“Have I said you could go?”

With a chuckle, I turned my head and smiled at him, hoping to change my image as much as possible, “I’m also going to eat midnight snack. I’m hungry. You continue to sit. Don’t be polite. You don’t have to send me off.”

I don’t know if I was seeing illusion but Kang guy seemed to slightly narrow his eyes.

“Presumptuous! Eat what midnight snack? Is it already time to get off the work?” Before I could make an attempt to slip away, Deng Long—— my boss who was already at doorway, harshly spoke, “Do what you are supposed to do.”

Then, he closed door with a bang.

Watching that door slowly shutting, I regretted till I almost gnawed my teeth to pieces. Not only I haven’t got close to Deng Long, on the contrary, I was closed inside a room together with an eccentric grim-faced guy. Moreover, it was obvious he had come for revenge.

I have decided for a quick fix.

Facing him with my back, I massaged my aching temple. I took a breath, turned around and swiftly picked up a bottle of what was left of red wine on the coffee table and poured myself a big mouthful of it. Afterwards, with a bang, I heavily put it back. One of my feet stepped on the coffee table, subsequently, I put hands on my hips assuming the look of a fierce shrew. I confidently flipped out at him, “Hey, Kang guy, what’s your intention?”

And that cold and detached man who has remained in the same position from the start to the end merely gave a glance at my thigh, took a sip of wine and said, “You are exposing yourself.”

Following his vision, I bent down my head to give it a quick look. I was alarmed. More than half of my thigh was exposed. Fortunately, I was particularly wise today. I was afraid so I didn’t wear a miniskirt.

With a tremendous speed, I put down my foot awkwardly. I was even more upset inside my heart when I saw him so calm in such a situation. My momentum has reduced greatly now.

He was sitting just like before. Even though he was still so handsome that it made waves surge through people’s hearts but that appearance of carrying out a vendetta made me feel irritated for no reason. He nonchalantly stated this sort of fact, “I hate the feeling of being fooled. Miss Fang, I really don’t like it.”

I let loose a torrent of swearing, “Do you think you are very noble? Not only secretly following me but also calling me late at night to threaten me……….haven’t I only got drunk and went a little crazy? Who told you to be standing in front of laoniang on that day? It was you who delivered yourself before my doorstep. If I didn’t look for you whom would I look for? Who are you going to blame for having a bad luck?”

He raised his good-looking eyebrow, “Miss Fang, there’s nothing wrong for being drunk. Your only mistake was you found a wrong target to vent your drunken state.” He suddenly stood up, leisurely walked before me and abruptly took off my enchanting wig. He was smiling while toying with it, “As time goes, you will know I am very petty.”

I just felt a black cloud pressing under my head. I was screaming inside that things were bad. This narrow-minded man wanted to play a protracted war with me.

While I was assessing the situation, he looked at wig in his hand and an amused smile appeared on his face, “The make up you have tonight is thicker and more terrible than the one you had on that night. Your wig, too. Was it to make me not to be able to recognise you? But your eyes can’t deceive me.”

I choked up. Usually when I was working, I was the most annoyed when I encountered someone with high IQ. They could easily lead you around by the nose.

He threw away the wig in his hand. He was practically looking at me arrogantly with a provocation, “Do you know what is written in your eyes?”

“What?” I actually got curious.

“Liar. There’s a word liar written in your eyes.”

It could be only blamed on you for being stupid, I mumbled inside.

I sensibly put aside overweening attitude. I raised my head and delicately yet pitifully looked at him. I pouted my lips, beginning to play a weeping beauty, “Mister Kang. How can you be like this? Saying that I am a liar. This is obviously a slander. Do you think it’s so easy for us, fallen women? Not only have we to support our families, in addition, we also have to endure the anger of you men. We hostesses are also humans…..”

Unmoved, he said coldy, “You can quit with your acting.”

Shooking shoulders, I faked a sobbing for a while. I got a little tired by this sob. This man stood here like an ice sculpture. He just won’t give me a face to extricate myself. I was swearing inside the heart. Thus, I quitted playing Lin Daiyu¹. I concentrated the attention on my face and pointed to a few drops of tears on the corners of my eyes that were forcibly squeezed out. I snarled, “Hey, Kang guy! What more do you want? I have already cried and also shed tears. I, Fang Liang Liang, haven’t cried even when my buttock was beaten up by my old woman as a child. Kang guy, it should do for you.“

He frowned, “You repeat over and over again Kang guy. The sincerity of miss Fang’s apology is clearly average.”

I twitched my mouth, not speaking.

“I believe, according to the character of miss Fang, even my name was, I’m afraid, forgotten by you.” He hit the nail on the head with his words.

I looked at him very innocently, replying sincerely, “This is also true. You do have some self-awareness. You are not handsome enough to make me obsessed. You are called Kang what?”

He watched me with a taut face. A fire seemed to have ignited inside his deep eyes.

I smiled cheerfully. Boldly patting his shoulder, I said casually, “Don’t despair. My eyes are picky. You can be considered pretty good. It’s fortunate I still remember your last name.”

His cold eyes glanced at my claw on his shoulder. I embarrassedly released the hand. I said sullenly, “Good, good. I know that I’m not pleasing to your eyes. Likewise, you are also not pleasing to my eyes. You know my moral integrity anyway. The next time you come to Mei Se for entertainment, remember to get far away from me so that I could avoid making you angry. Let’s do it like this then. We mutually forget about each other and never again see each other again. Bye bye.”

Just as I turned around to slip away, a pair of hands were, unexpectedly, pressed on my shoulder, making me unable to move a single step. An anger was boiling inside me. With a surprised expression, I turned my head to glare at him, “What do you want?”

“Zi Xian.” He said with a calm and collected face. “Kang Zi Xian.”

I blinked, confused.

He stared at me, “Don’t make me repeat it for the third time.”

This situation was truly weird enough. It even had a trace of ambiguousness that made me feel annoyed. By a curious coincidence, I blurted out a sentence, “Don’t fall for me.”

“You don’t need to insult my aesthetic sense.” He replied neatly.

“Likewise. Likewise.“ I smiled at him insincerely. I clenched my fists and went out.

I was enraged. The days were becoming more unpalatable. For a case, I had to sell meat², I had to act coy like a cat in a breeding season, I had to get close to a gay and what’s more, every few days I even had to deal with a freak who emerged from who knows which corner. These people indeed surpassed each other with the level of their eccentricity. Do I look like a punchbag?

The more I thought about it the more I was irritated. After returning to the lobby, for a while, I was seething with an anger. At this time, I saw a movement beside the door. Dongzi’s crafty head poked in.

“Elder sister Mary ~~~~~” Seeing that there was no one in the lobby, he slipped in on tiptoes while carrying a wine plate.

I nervously glanced around and cast a glance at a corner, indicating him to pay attention to the security camera above.

Dongzi understood. Yet, remained at the place. We were forbidden to carry phones while working. Dongzi showing up here presumably meant he had something urgent to tell me. He opened his mouth, “Yesterday you have once more saved my chrysanthemum.”

Afterwards he gave me a miserable glance, turned his slim waist and left while harboring a bitterness.
