<h4>Chapter 752: Chapter 0754: Thank You Properly</h4>


    Thinking of the words Chu Ge said to herself at the Gambling Stone Field, a hint of irritation involuntarily arose in her heart.


    The mobile phone was right beside her, after hesitating for a long time, she finally mustered the courage to make a call to Mu Bingtong.


    "Lady Mu, are you doing okay?" As soon as the call connected, Nangong Man Sha asked.


    The line was somewhat noisy, "I’m fine now, Miss Man Sha doesn’t need to worry."


    "That’s a relief."


    Nangong Man Sha was silent for a moment, then sighed and slowly began, "Lady Mu, I’m sorry, no matter what, I should apologize to you."


    Bingtong was puzzled, "Why should you apologize? It wasn’t your fault, I was fine, and I should be thanking you for showing up in time."


    Nangong Man Sha’s lips curled into a bitter smile, "But..."


    Nangong Man Sha hesitated, the rest of her words left unspoken.


    However, Bingtong had somewhat understood, "Is it because of Chu Ge?"


    Nangong Man Sha was startled, then fell silent once more.


    Bingtong looked up at Chu Ge, knowing very well that he had learned about this morning’s events. His infuriated demeanor when he returned this morning said it all, but he had left again after seeing her asleep, so she didn’t know what exactly Chu Ge had done.


    Could he have gone to find Miss Man Sha? That shouldn’t be the case; after all, Miss Man Sha hadn’t done anything wrong.


    On the contrary, it was thanks to Miss Man Sha’s timely intervention that she wasn’t humiliated by Shenghao.


    Bingtong thought for a moment, "Miss Man Sha, do you have time right now? How about we have lunch together?"


    Nangong Man Sha initially wanted to refuse, but with Bingtong’s repeated invitations and the turmoil Man Sha felt internally, she agreed.


    After hanging up the phone, Chu Ge happened to appear behind Bingtong.


    Bingtong smiled and said to Chu Ge, "We’ll have another friend joining us for a while, you don’t mind, do you?"


    Chu Ge smiled, "Of course not, but I’m curious, do you also have friends in the Capital City? Someone new?"


    Bingtong gave Chu Ge a mysterious wink, "You know this person as well, but I won’t tell you who it is, you’ll find out when she arrives."


    Seeing this, Chu Ge didn’t ask further. Bingtong’s face was always smiling, and Chu Ge noticed that her mood hadn’t been dampened by this morning’s event. Instead of feeling relieved, his own tension intensified.


    He knew that Bingtong was trying to appear fine, actually to keep him from worrying.


    The two were preparing to head to a private room upstairs, and as they passed the lobby, they heard from the TV, "The new CEO of Shenghao Technology was suddenly castrated by a mysterious person this morning."


    Those words drifted into Bingtong’s ears, causing her to tremble and involuntarily stop in her tracks, turning to look at the screen. It was showing footage of the CEO of Shenghao being loaded into an ambnce.


    A flicker of suspicion crossed Bingtong’s mind—how could it be such a coincidence?


    Soon, she thought of the person standing beside her, a man with too many secrets. Although she hadn’t asked anything, at that very moment, a voice inside her kept telling her that this matter had something to do with Chu Ge.


    She looked up at Chu Ge, her gaze inquisitive. Her lips parted as if to ask, but in the end, she couldn’t form the question.


    Chu Ge calmly watched her. He knew what Bingtong wanted to ask, but he didn’t know whether he should answer. If he did, wouldn’t it mean he was aware of it all?


    And if so, what would Bingtong think?


    Chu Ge used silence in ce of words.


    The two of them just sat there, silently looking at each other for a few moments until the waiter came up with some confusion and asked, "Is there anything else you need?"


    Mu Bingtong came back to her senses first. She shook her head, "No, I’m sorry."


    Chu Ge and Mu Bingtong entered the private room without mentioning the Shenghao incident as if by tacit agreement, but there was something that Mu Bingtong had to bring up.


    Because when Nangong Man Sha arrivester, it would be inevitable to mention it, and since Chu Ge was going to find out sooner orter, it would be less awkward to talk about it now when it was just the two of them.


    Mu Bingtong thought to herself, hesitated for a moment, then began to speak slowly, "Actually, this morning..."


    "I know," Chu Ge interrupted.


    Mu Bingtong was startled, then she smiled.


    She silently looked at Chu Ge and suddenly realized that at some unknown point, a thing called ’tacit understanding’ had started to exist between them.


    "It was also me who dealt with the Shenghao matter," Chu Ge said, taking the initiative to tell Mu Bingtong what he had done that day.


    "I know you might think I’m cruel for treating him that way, but since he crossed a line he shouldn’t have, he had to pay the price."


    Mu Bingtong’s cheeks were a bit hot. Although she was touched by everything Chu Ge had done for her, there was something he must correct, "Chu Ge, I’m still innocent right now."


    Chu Ge blinked, then coughed lightly in embarrassment, "I know that."


    "Then what you just said could easily be misunderstood," she pointed out.


    "Alright, I misspoke," he conceded.


    Having talked about the morning’s incident, it felt as though they had both taken a step closer to understanding each other’s hearts.


    Mu Bingtong let out a sigh and said, "I never expected Shenghao to be such a person. What happened this morning was indeed infuriating and hard to ept, but these are not things that others should deal with on my behalf. You shouldn’t take your anger out on Miss Man Sha."


    Chu Ge was thoughtful for a moment, then responded, "The friend you mentioned who’singter is Miss Man Sha, right?"


    Mu Bingtong nodded, "I feel like there’s some misunderstanding between you two. Her tone didn’t sound good, so I took the liberty of calling her out. You’re not angry, are you?"


    Chu Ge chuckled and shook his head, "Not angry. Actually, I was a bit hot-headed today as well, and I spoke harshly. It’s only right for me to apologize to her."


    Hearing Chu Ge say this, Mu Bingtong felt much more at ease. She had been worried about how to broach the subject with Chu Ge.


    But now it seemed that she didn’t need to persuade him at all; Chu Ge had already recognized his mistake.


    Soon, Nangong Man Sha arrived, but what she didn’t expect was to see Chu Ge there as well.


    For a moment, Nangong Man Sha stood there, unsure whether to stay or go.


    She gave a wry smile, "Lady Mu, since you’re on a date, I won’t disturb you."


    "Wait a moment." Mu Bingtong quickly stood up, ran over to Nangong Man Sha, and pulled her arm to sit down, "Since you’re here, let’s have a meal together before you leave. I still have to properly thank you for today."
