Chapter: 6278

Xu Chóngkūn, who was being flattered by Little Wu's persistent praise, noticed Ma Ran's shocked expression and pretended to hang up, saying "Uh, I have nothing else to attend to."

Little Wu said respectfully: "Okay, Xu President, you go ahead."

Just as Xu Chóngkūn was about to hang up the phone, Little Wu suddenly remembered something and quickly blurted out: "Oh, by the way, Xu President..."

Xu Chóngkūn said casually: "Go ahead."

Little Wu hurriedly said: "When you were sent off last night, you had too much to drink and I don't know if you still remember. Professor Han entrusted me with an invitation for you, and I put it in the briefcase you have, so please don't forget!"

When Little Wu mentioned Professor Han's invitation, Xu Chóngkūn only felt a buzzing in his head before suddenly blowing up.

Having an uneasy conscience as he was, he quickly told Little Wu on the phone: "Okay, okay, I know, there's nothing else to hang up about, then I'll just hang up!"

He said that and then hurriedly pressed the disconnect button.

Ma Ran, who was standing beside him, curiously asked: "What Professor Han?"

If Xu Chóngkūn had a better psychological quality, he would naturally say something like: an old colleague from the same university at this moment, and probably, this matter would have passed.

But Xu Chóngkūn is just that kind of person with extremely poor psychological quality and a player who panics when faced with danger and becomes disorganized.

Ma Ran was only asking casually, but he had already broken out in sweat on his forehead.

So, he nervously glanced at Ma Ran while trying to control his stuttering voice: "N-no one...n-not anyone..."

Ma Ran sensed something was off, furrowed her brow, and asked: "What do you mean by 'no one' is Professor Han? Who is Professor Han? What's the invitation for? What are you supposed to do?"

As she spoke, Ma Ran noticed that Xu Chóngkūn's temples were already covered in cold sweat, so she immediately pressed him: "Xu Chóngkūn, why are you so nervous? What are you hiding from me?"

Xu Chóngkūn was extremely flustered inside but could only harden his head to explain: "I really don't have anything to hide from you...what am I hiding from you about?"

Ma Ran stared fixedly at Xu Chóngkūn, while Xu Chóngkūn dared not meet her gaze and had to pretend to focus on the front.

Ma Ran then opened her mouth to say: "Xu Chóngkūn, your face can't hide anything! You must be plotting something with me!"

After she finished speaking, she immediately prepared to open the suitcase to take a look.

Xu Chóngkūn couldn't let her do that; even though he hadn't opened the invitation himself, he knew for sure that it would have the names of the groom and bride on it, and if Ma Ran saw "Han Meiying" three characters, this matter would be blown wide open!

So, he had to take a deep breath and use his elbow to press down on the suitcase, refusing to let Ma Ran open it.

He was only doing that, Ma Ran's heart grew increasingly suspicious and she had to investigate further. JrNovels.com
