Chapter 820 Li Tian's Attack

Chapter 820 Baileys' Attack
Baileys was slightly surprised to find that Natsukawa seemed quite interested in rum.

Judging from his expression, he suspected that Natsukawa's arrival in Japan and his actions against the Japanese branch might be related to Rum.

Yes, there is indeed a certain possibility.

Rum only started focusing on the European branch in the last few years. Before that, he was even more aggressive than Gin. His trip from Europe to the United States to kill a presidential candidate is the best proof of that.

At least, Gin shouldn't dare to do such a thing.

Keeping her speculations to herself, Baileys took a small sip of her coffee. "Well, not necessarily, but it's possible."

Baileys still remembers how Vermouth snorted when she heard the news.

Vermouth never liked Rum, and with that expression on her face, there's a very high chance she'll come.

"I understand. Just handle the Haneda family matter normally and don't have any concerns."

Xia Chuan glanced at the lipstick mark on the rim of his coffee cup, said nothing, but his body leaned back slightly, indicating a sense of resistance.

Kaito watched the two men's actions, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

Baileys is trying to win over Xia Chuan, while Xia Chuan is vehemently resisting.

Yeah, that's roughly the feeling.

With a woman as alluring and beautiful as Baileys, can Xia Chuan really resist her?
Kaito's mind was racing, already imagining what kind of sparks would fly between Bailey's and Yoel.

"Judging from your expression, it seems like you know something?" Baileys asked.

Xia Chuan shook his head, not revealing everything he knew. He was afraid that Baileys would know too much and not be able to act properly when she contacted Vermouth later, which would expose her.

Baileys was clearly somewhat displeased, but she didn't show it.

She knew that her sudden arrival meant it was impossible for the other party to immediately trust her completely.

But she didn't expect that Xia Chuan had completely trusted her.

Do not!
To be precise, it was complete trust in Anya's mind-reading superpower.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought her to see Kaito.

The only thing I don't trust is her ability.

"That counts as two pieces of news. There's one last piece of news." Baileys's expression suddenly changed, and she pondered for several seconds, as if she were having an internal struggle.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Xia Chuan frowned; the other party's concerns piqued his curiosity.

"The last message is about you."

A hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes.

"Vermouth already knows you're thinking about proposing, so she's planning to surprise you when you do."

"As for what kind of surprise it will be, it will probably depend on the time and place of your proposal."

Baileys didn't want to talk about this, after all, she was hoping that something would happen to Joel so that she could take his place.

But a marriage proposal isn't a one-person affair. Xia Chuan will also be there, as the male lead, and Vermouth's main target.

If this news isn't shared, Xia Chuan will also be in danger.

Kaito and Natsukawa immediately understood the meaning of the word "surprise." Clearly, Vermouth's gesture was not a normal gift.

Or rather, the kind of precious gift that can send someone to meet God.

"That Vermouth guy seems really angry."

Kaito chuckled to himself, giving Natsukawa a teasing look. "When are you going to propose, Natsukawa-nii? I can give you a spectacular magic show, free of charge. I guarantee Yole-nee will never forget this day."

Having received no response and noticing Natsukawa's serious expression, Kaito composed himself.

The three remained silent.

Xia Chuan took out a cigarette and lit it.

In fact, he had already decided on the location for the proposal. For a romantic proposal, the music academy in Nishitama City was the perfect choice.

There is one of the top organ symphony orchestras in Japan. Among the people Frank has recently developed is a man named Kazuki Domoto, who happens to be the head of the Domoto Music Academy in Nishitama City.

With this connection and money to pave the way, this proposal will definitely be perfect.

But now Baileys tells him that Vermouth is planning to cause trouble.

Although I was prepared that the people from the winery wouldn't let me off easy, I never expected them to try to take advantage of my marriage proposal.

Damn it, Vermouth, who was disguised as Fumiyo Edogawa last time, must have overheard it.

Xia Chuan was filled with resentment and helplessness. He put his hand to his forehead and silently thought of a solution.

He wasn't afraid of Vermouth, but he was worried that the proposal atmosphere would be disrupted.

This is very important to the girl, and he doesn't want Joel to have any bad memories.

“I don’t think you need to worry too much. If Vermouth is going to take action, she can’t do without me no matter what.”

Baileys gently stroked Xia Chuan's thigh, her movements full of aggression.

Ah, this.
Kaito couldn't help but look around, afraid that a Yoru might suddenly appear nearby.

So, did Xia Chuan subdue Baileys in bed?

He had the desire to gossip, but not the courage to do so; he could only lower his head and drink his coffee, pretending not to see anything.

Xia Chuan slapped away Bailey's savage hand.

However, what the other party said is right. I don't need to worry too much. Whether it's Gin or Vermouth, if either of them wants to make a move, they have to go through Tequila or Baileys.

Having two undercover agents is great.

Gin has been testing the organization's spies several times recently, but has found nothing. He must be losing patience. He should be able to get intelligence for his next operation.

Baileys pouted in dissatisfaction after her hand was slapped away, then stood up: "I've said what I needed to say. I should go back to her side and continue to lie low to avoid revealing my identity."

She had only taken two steps when she suddenly turned back and said, "I advise you to manage your Tequila identity carefully. You need to keep track of your activities, otherwise Gin will start to suspect you sooner or later."

"I understand." Xia Chuan nodded gently.

He watched Baileys leave with a complicated expression.

That makes sense. We'll have Araide Tomoaki do it. He's got nothing better to do anyway, so we can just give him an tequila mask and let him spend a few nights with it to keep his identity safe.

Kaito interrupted Natsukawa's daze, his gossip-loving nature evident as he asked, "Can you tell me how you won over Bailey's? Shinichi Kudo's mom was there yesterday, along with Anya and the others. How dare you do that?"

"What are you talking about?" Natsukawa asked, confused by Kaito's mocking expression.

"You know what I mean." Kaito said with a smile, his eyebrows twitching.

"You're overthinking it. I have absolutely no feelings for Baileys."

This is the truth.

It didn't seem like he was lying. Kaito couldn't help but shake his head.

wrong!

He suddenly looked up, squinting at Xia Chuan.

Xia Chuan's acting skills were superb; he was almost fooled.

"Since they've been so proactive, I think you should just give in?" he probed again.

Xia Chuan glanced at him, then stood up and left without looking back.

I was already annoyed, and now look at what this kid is saying.

"Seriously, it was just a joke."
