NOVEL WEB Chapter 77
Chapter 77: I’m already old, and you still call me baby!
“Mission accomplished!”
One day later, Wu Ge looked at his masterpiece and felt very pleased.
“Once this formation is activated, within half an hour, Lin Beifan, you will be immersed in confusion and delusion, losing your mind and behaving inappropriately, regardless of gender. You’ll display your ugliest side! By then, you’ll undoubtedly ruin the image you have in everyone’s mind. If the situation is severe, you might even be thrown into prison, just like you did to me back then!”
Wu Ge opened his hand, holding a small object.
“And this, a pinhole camera!”
Wu Ge smiled triumphantly, “I will record your ugly side and make sure it becomes famous worldwide, a stain and even a disgrace that you can never wash away!”
Saying that, he secretly placed the pinhole camera on his collar, ready to capture the moment when Lin Beifan fell into the trap.
At that moment, Lin Beifan’s office door opened.
He waved to Wu Ge, “Xiao Wu, come here!”
“Boss Lin, what’s the matter?”
“My bathroom is a bit dirty. Can you clean it for me?”
“No problem, Boss Lin!” Wu Ge walked into the bathroom and started to clean it diligently.
“Look, Boss Lin, the bathroom is indeed dirty, but it requires a special cleaning agent to make it spotless! That cleaning agent is with Aunt Liu. I’ll go get it!”
“No need, you clean it first! I’ll go for a walk and talk to Aunt Liu!” Lin Beifan said, holding a cup of tea, and hummed a tune as he leisurely walked out of the office.
“No trouble, Boss Lin!” Wu Ge called out from behind.
“It’s nothing!” Lin Beifan waved his hand.
After leaving the office, Lin Beifan closed the door behind him and found Aunt Liu to explain the situation.
“Alright, I’ll go!” Watching Aunt Liu’s figure leave, Lin Beifan then went to Liu Rumei’s office.
As he admired Liu Rumei working, he silently made a wish.
“I wish that for the next half an hour, I won’t come out of this room! If my mental state is negatively affected, the effect will be doubled! Let the storm come even stronger!”
“Ding! Wish granted!”
At this moment, Wu Ge was diligently cleaning the bathroom.
Although he was in the formation, he was not worried at all.
Cleaning a bathroom was a simple task, and it would take only ten minutes to finish, even faster if he had the cleaning agent. After ten minutes, he would leave this place and wouldn’t be affected by anything.
Suddenly, a knock came from outside. “Xiao Wu, open the door!” It was Aunt Liu’s voice.
“Alright, I’m coming!” Wu Ge went to the door and tried to open it.
But the door wouldn’t budge. He tried a few more times, but it was locked from the outside.
A bad premonition surged in his heart. “Could the lock be broken again?”
After trying a couple more times, it was confirmed that the lock was indeed broken. He then called out, “Aunt Liu, the door won’t open. It might be bolted from the outside! Please find Boss Lin or someone from the office to help unlock it!”
After a while, the office manager brought a bunch of keys and spread them out in his hand. “The keys won’t work either. It seems the lock is broken again. We have to change it this time! Xiao Wu, endure it for a while. I’ll call a locksmith, and it will be fixed soon!”
Wu Ge was on the verge of collapse. At this point, his consciousness was starting to blur, and he felt a bit confused.
Then he slapped himself hard to wake up.
“Hold on! Just one more hour!”
From now on, whenever he couldn’t hold on, he would slap himself or pinch his thigh hard to wake himself up. Time passed second by second, and he persevered with his strong will. However, his mental state was in a terrible condition, and he could fall into confusion at any moment.
After one hour, the door finally clicked open. He maintained the last shred of consciousness and rushed out. But he ran into Aunt Liu who was coming towards him. Both of them exclaimed and fell to the ground.
With this collision, Wu Ge missed the last chance. He shook his head, looking at Aunt Liu in front of him, her thick arms, short legs, round head, and chubby mouth. Why did she look so beautiful?
At this moment, he was infatuated and felt he was in love. He quickly helped Aunt Liu up and said, “Baby, you’re here!”
Aunt Liu was puzzled, “Xiao Wu, what did you call me just now?”
Wu Ge said naturally, “I called you baby!”
Everyone around them: “Uh~”
Aunt Liu looked displeased, “Oh my, I’m already old, and you still call me baby!”
“What’s wrong with being old? Even if you’re old, you’ll always be my baby!”
Everyone around them: “Uh~”
Aunt Liu blushed and trembled with anger, “Xiao Wu, if you speak nonsense again, I’ll get angry!” Wu Ge looked confused, “I’m not talking nonsense. I’m speaking from my heart!”
Aunt Liu gave him a slap. “Rascal!”
Then she glanced at the stunned onlookers and ran away embarrassedly.
Wu Ge chased after her, “Baby, don’t go!”
That day, the company was buzzing with a juicy piece of news. “Did you hear? Xiao Wu is chasing after Aunt Liu and calling her baby!”
“We had only speculated before, but this time it’s confirmed. While running after her, he even called her baby loud enough for the entire building to hear!”
“The way he says ‘When you were young, you were my little baby, and when you’re old, you’re my old baby’—so cheesy! I’ve never heard such a cheesy romantic phrase. It gives me goosebumps!”
“I can’t understand why the young and handsome Xiao Wu is interested in Aunt Liu.”
“Just believe that true love conquers all!”
The eavesdropping Wu Ge: “Fck!”
At this moment, it was truly a scene of chaos! He touched his chest and felt deeply hurt!
He couldn’t understand how a good plan could turn into such a mess.
Twice he set up traps, and twice he stepped into them!
And it was a series of traps!
The first time he fell into Aunt Liu’s arms and had a nosebleed, and the second time he was chasing after her, calling her baby…
If it weren’t for the conviction of revenge that supported him, he wouldn’t have the face to stay in the company!
It’s embarrassing!
He picked up his phone and looked at the scenes captured by the pinhole camera. He couldn’t help but shiver, and his whole body was covered in goosebumps. “Uh~ Too cheesy! How did I become so cheesy? My mission is to get rid of it! Destroy it! I must destroy it!” After smashing the pinhole camera, he finally saw the light. He felt clean again!
Firmly determined, he said, “Lin Beifan, you escaped twice, but this time, I will definitely not let you get away!”
