Chapter <b>131 </b>
Mnie’s lips moved, but she had no idea what to say.
Eugene looked down at her and he grunted. “Don’t overestimate yourself.<b>” </b>
“Eugene?” He had just said this when Vi’s voice was hearding from behind. She had turned a corner toe over. Her gaze fell onto Mnie as she asked softly, “Mnie, why didn’t youe into the private room? We were all waiting for you.”
The questioning look in her eyes was too obvious, and Mnie pressed her lips. She tried her best to hide her emotions. <b>“</b>I just arrived.”
“I thought you weren’ting.” When Vi said this, she looked at Eugene again. The questioning look remained in her eyes as she gazed at him.
Mnie knew that Vi was overthinking this again, but she was not in the mood to exin anything. All Mnie said was that she wanted to get her bag from the private room.
Before she left for the private room, Theo came over. He was holding Mnie’s bag in his hand.
He noticed Mnie looking taken aback, and he passed her bag to her. “I’m sorry. I thought you’d forgotten your bag when you left in a hurry, so I thought I’d return it to you.”
Mnie took the bag from him impassively. “Thank you.”
Theo turned to look at Eugene. “Eugene, I think Vi has an allergic reaction. You’d better take her for a check–up at the hospital.”
Vi immediately rolled up her sleeves after Theo mentioned it. There were a few red spots on her arm. Frowning, sheined to Eugene, “I was fine this morning, but for some reason, I started to itch just now.”
“There was nothing special with what we had.” Theo then asked, “Are you allergic to anything?”
“I’m allergic to peanuts,” Vi answered.
Mnie’s eyes twitched. She remembered a dish that was served had peanut butter as an ingredient.
She did not have much of an appetite, but since the dish had been ced in front of her, she had eaten
some.
Theo hit himself on the head as he had just remembered this. He asked Eugene, “Why didn’t you tell me that Vi can’t have peanuts?”
Eugene paused but answered nonchntly after that, “I didn’t notice you ordering it.”
There was no point in arguing about it any longer. Fortunately, the hospital was not far away from where they were.
Mnie felt that it was not her ce to be following them. She did not move and said brusquely, “I
have work to do. I’ll be going back to the hotel first.”
Eugene did not react much to what she said, and the nce he swept at her was cold as well.
Mnie’s eyshes fluttered gently. Then<b>, </b>she heard him sneering, “Do whatever you want.”
She felt relieved. Mnie had no energy to deal with anyone.
However, for some reason<b>, </b>Vi frowned and looked at her. “Mnie, I think you should visit the hospital too. You don’t look too good.”

“I’m fine. I saw a doctor this morning.” Even though she was not feeling well, Mnie could tell there was some other emotion hidden underneath Vi’s superficial concern.
Vi did not really want her to go to the hospital for a check–up. Vi wanted trouble to ensue for Mnie if Dn happened to be at the hospital.
“But you look really pale. We’ll be worried if you go back on your own.” She turned to get Eugene’s
opinion. “Isn’t that right, Eugene?”
Eugene said nothing. Theodore was the one who spoke up, “You’re an employee of LeapCo, after all. Thepany should be responsible for you.”
That was when Eugene looked up at Theo. He said with ridicule, “I wasn’t aware that you’re the boss of LeapCo.”
Theo was surprised by Eugene’s reaction. Vi held on to Eugene’s arm and said softly, “Mnie is working outstation with us, Eugene. We have to be responsible for her.”
This conversation was making Mnie ufortable. She put on a stoic expression and rejected them a little more harshly and coldly, “I don’t need any of you to be responsible for me.”
With that, she walked out of the hotel.
Vi’s expression froze. Eugene looked away and said nonchntly, “Come on, let’s go to the hospital.”
There was nothing else for Vi to say. However, Theodore was thoughtful as he watched Mnie
leave.
