Chapter 846: Chapter 846: Mr. Li is in a Meeting

Estelle was worried she might impulsively head to Zijin Club alone, so when she heard that Rong Yan wanted to find a sugar daddy to go with her, she instantly felt relieved, “Yes, it’s better to bring Mr. Li along.”

Rong Yan grabbed her bag and glanced at the little guy, who was all ears, and said helplessly, “Estelle, let’s go together. You help me look after the little guy outside; otherwise, he definitely won’t let me go.”

Estelle saw the little police officer closely monitoring every move of Rong Yan and couldn’t help but smile and nod, “That’s a good idea. I’ll feel more at ease if I accompany you.”

Rong Yan was ready to leave immediately, not wasting a second, “Then let’s hurry. The other party said they would only give us half an hour; they will harm Qi Yue if we don’t get there in time. I’ll call Assistant Gu once we’re in the car.”

Rong Yan was highly proactive, and Estelle was quite efficient too.

In less than five minutes, Estelle called back the driver, who then started driving them towards Zijin Club…

In the car.

Rong Yan made a call to Gu Ming, who answered instantly, “Miss Rong, what’s the matter?”

“Well, is Li Shengxiao busy? I need to speak with him.” She hesitated in her phrasing as she repeated the situation regarding Qi Yue, then said, “I’m currently on my way to the Zijin Club, and I’ll be there in about half an hour.”

Why would Miss Rong look for Mr. Li at this time? Usually, she never sought out Mr. Li when there was no issue. Gu Ming wasn’t sure if it was just his luck that problems seemed to collide, he hesitated before speaking, “Uh, well, Mr. Li, I’m afraid he’s not available.”

Rong Yan asked, “Is he in a meeting?”

“Um.” Gu Ming was not good at lying. Rong Yan handed him an excuse on a platter, and he reluctantly went along with it, “Yes, that’s right, Mr. Li is in a very important meeting! He probably won’t be able to accompany you to the Zijin Club this afternoon.”

BOSS mentioned an upcoming lunch appointment with Chu Xi; where was that supposed to be again? Somehow, he faintly remembered it might also be at the XX Club.

It couldn’t possibly be such a coincidence that it was the same place Miss Rong was heading to, could it?

Gu Ming was preoccupied, yet it didn’t interfere with his ability to work efficiently, “Although Mr. Li won’t be available, I’m free at noon. If Miss Rong doesn’t mind, I could accompany you. I know most people in Capital City, so perhaps the other party might show some respect.”

He was being modest in his claim. In Capital City, who didn’t know he was Li Shengxiao’s right-hand man? Li Shengxiao was seldom seen in public and deeply involved in his work, so he almost served as Li Shengxiao’s eyes and mouthpiece, specifically responsible for conveying his intentions.

Rong Yan knew Gu Ming was influential in Capital City. Thinking of Qi Yue, she didn’t put on airs, “Thank you for going through the trouble, Assistant Gu.”

Gu Ming immediately replied, “You are too polite with me, Miss Rong. This is all part of my duties. Once you arrive, do not go in first; I’ll drive over immediately.”

“Okay.” Rong Yan swiftly hung up and, turning to Estelle who was waiting for her response, said, “Li Shengxiao is in a meeting and can’t come; Assistant Gu will come instead. Estelle, is that okay?”

Estelle, “Of course, that’s fine. Actually, Zijin Club isn’t as scary as I described; I just shared an incident from the year before last with you. Zijin Club still operates normally; it’s not a den of dragons and tigers, it’s just that the clientele is a bit mixed. With Assistant Gu managing things, there shouldn’t be a problem.”

Rong Yan looked worriedly ahead, “I hope so.”
