Transmigrated & Triumphant: Defying Destiny's Chosen One-Chapter 676 - 9: Fraud Training_3

"Looks like business isn’t going well!"

That’s even less likely.

You have to know, in the Star Sea Era, only the elite go to high-end malls to experience the charm of physical shopping.

As for the rest... Isn’t holographic shopping convenient?

This kind of deserted store feels more peaceful and classy to her.

Although Chu River didn’t say it, his attitude was clear.

The entrepreneurial spirit that President Xiao Zhou barely mustered was quickly extinguished like a small flame hit by saliva, leaving only wisps of smoke.

Alright then.

Anyway, with his father’s health, he could continue for another 20 years. If he makes an effort, and he already has a son.

By then, the third-generation wealth works hard, the second-generation eats and waits for death, the first-generation enjoys retirement... How well planned!

...

And at this moment, Chen Ningbai also pretended to casually enter the store.

Her acting couldn’t be more natural. She first wandered around, then appeared a bit embarrassed to ask the clerk:

"Hello, when will my reserved Cleaning Circle be ready?"

Before she finished speaking, she seemed to notice someone else and was surprised:

"President Zhou!"

Luckily, she almost called out "President Xiao Zhou" by mistake.

As for Chu River nearby and the passerby-like bodyguard... these unimportant extras that could put her on trending for a potential romance would be a pleasant surprise.

If not, it just shows she’s low-key and not a vain woman.

Chu River swallowed his puff pastry and turned around curiously.

And Zhou Bai, separated by two bodyguards, also turned around in surprise.

Once he turned his head, everything went silent.

Chen Ningbai swiftly bowed her head shyly, tucking her hair behind her ear with modesty.

At this angle, her sharp chin, fluttering long eyelashes, slender white neck... all stirred a sense of compassion in men.

Before she could further play up her vulnerability, the other party rudely asked:

"Who are you?" The tone was far from pleasant.

Chu River was stunned—aren’t you the second male lead!

Did she misjudge? Has the deep-hearted supporting character now turned into an overbearing young master?

Judging by the tone, love at first sight is out of the question for now.

Chen Ningbai: ...

At this moment, the noble woman felt like swearing.

She had been massively trending for a month, and this question—are they even young people?

Even if they didn’t recognize her, upon seeing such a beautiful face, it shouldn’t warrant such a poor attitude?

No gentlemanly demeanor whatsoever!

As for Zhou Bai——he’s just a fool with no charm.

Anyway, women just want to scam money!

Thinking about it, he remembered his history of being conned and kidnapped, his expression darkened further.

For no other reason than his first love, who looked just like Chen Ningbai.

Anyway, someone not keen on money, the kind that evokes sympathy.

Thinking about it made him feel worse.

...

But if Chen Ningbai were to give up that easily, she wouldn’t be herself.

At this moment, she bit her lip, starlight twinkled plaintively in her eyes, and her eyes reddened.

"Sorry... I was too excited to see President Zhou... I’m sorry."

She bowed her head and apologized, "I didn’t mean to intrude."

Just a greeting, with this attitude, any normal man wouldn’t dwell on it, right?

Zhou Bai almost jumped!

This... this... this look resembles his honey trap girlfriend so much ah ah ah!

Have they possibly attended some joint training camp? Otherwise, why do they look so alike? When he first met his ex-girlfriend and there was a misunderstanding, she said the same thing!

Damn it!

Does his standard CEO face make him look that easy to deceive?!

He heard there are such fraud circles sharing resources, he... might already be on the sucker list!

Thinking of this, Zhou Bai’s entire demeanor soured.

Without any concealment, he directly retreated two steps behind the bodyguard. Only then did he fiercely say, "Don’t think about scamming me!"

Chen Ningbai: ...

Damn idiot.

But there’s no giving up!

She really cried out in grievance, bowing her head to wipe her tears, then quietly shuffled slightly:

"President Zhou, I don’t know what I’ve done wrong, for you to—"

Before she finished, Zhou Bai was almost jumping up: "Ah ah ah don’t come near!"

Just then, a sexy lady in a dark green dress suddenly blocked Chen Ningbai’s path, her red lips slightly parted:

"Chen Ningbai, what are you planning against our Xiao Zhou, ahem, Little Bai?!"
