Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot by Beautiful Crescent

Chapter 543: 347 The beauty is fierce, Auntie and Grandpa Huo join forces?

The new moon had just risen, its faint halo and sparse stars sketching out the silhouettes of the mountains in the

distance like the deepest, most profound ink painting.

In the desolation of the distance, the atmosphere inside the car was even more oppressive and suffocating. The

people from the Huo Family, seated in the driver and front passenger seats, glanced towards the back.

The neon lights outside cast the man’s features in an even more sharp and profound relief.

Their eyes lowered to their wristwatches; it was nearly eleven. They had been waiting outside the KTV for about

two hours.

Upon arrival, they had inquired at the front desk. A company gathering; a group of people in uniform, very

conspicuous. The waiter had a strong impression—as they had booked a private room for three hours and hadn't

left yet—so they continued to wait outside.

“My Lord, why don’t we give Miss Shen a call? It is indeed very late.” They had her contact information; there

was no need to wait outside so miserably.

After speaking, they received no response, so the people from the Huo Family remained silent.

Before long, they saw a group of people start to trickle out. Shen Shuci’s company issued uniforms with

distinctive markings, so when observing them leave, the front passenger from the Huo Family immediately

perked up.

Plenty of designated drivers gathered at the entrance of the KTV. Many had drunk quite a bit this evening, calling

ride-hailing services, and then departed one after the other. Soon, there were hardly a few people left at the

entrance.

“Xiaoshen, where do you live? I'll take you home.” The man speaking to Shen Shuci was around forty years old.

Shen Shuci’s appearance was not particularly pretty, but she had an obstinate air, and her smile was like the

rippling of spring water, charming and delicate. Many single men in the office couldn't help giving her a second

glance.

A young man had been waiting beside her, but seeing the older man speak, he begrudgingly said his farewells,

“Xiaoshen, Manager Fan, I'll be off then. See you tomorrow.”

Everyone was not oblivious and swiftly conjured various excuses to leave, leaving only Shen Shuci and Manager

Fan at the entrance.

“Manager Fan, there's no need, you've drunk quite a bit tonight as well. Head back early and rest. My his

quite close to here, I'll just take a taxi,” said Shen Shuci, walking towards a corner of the road.

“It's not easy to get a taxi at this hour...” True, several taxis had been parked at the entrance of the KTV, but as

a crowd surged out, the taxis were snapped up quickly.

The area was populated with businesses, but entertainment venues were scarce. At this hour, there were no cars

on the road, and even fewer pedestrians passed by.

“No worries, I'll call a car.” Shen Shuci, though new to the job market, was not naive.

During the meal, Manager Fan had tried, subtly and not so subtly, to ply her with drink. But there were higher

ranking leaders present, so he couldn't act too outrageously. However, his conversation still bordered on the

improper.

Wanting to drive her hat this time? The intention was clear.

This scene was thoroughly observed by the people in the car from the Huo Family, but their car was parked in a

secluded spot, and the deep night, coupled with the dim street lights, meant Shen Shuci didn’t notice them.

“My Lord, that man has been following Miss Shen the entire time, what is he trying to do?”

“By his age, he’s old enough to be her father. That's really sleazy.”

“Should we go over?”

The man didn’t speak but simply opened the car door and stepped out. The people from the Huo Family hurriedly

followed.

Meanwhile, Shen Shuci had reached the roadside and was calling for a car on her phone.

They were now closer than what could be considered a safe distance. Shen Shuci clenched her jaw compulsively,

gripping her bag tightly in her hand, her whole body tensed.

“I noticed you right when you joined the company, not many young people like you have such drive.”

“You're at the age to have a boyfriend, aren't you? Do you live with him?”

Shen Shuci frowned and remained silent.

Manager Fan, having drunk quite a bit, grew bolder with her silence.
