Chapter 2035: Madness

Lan Yue walked to the corner and took out a bottle of mineral water.

He handed it to the investigator. “Can you check if there’s any drugs inside?”

The investigator took the bottle and left.

After a while, the results were out.

There was indeed drugs.

Xiang Yingjie scoffed. “Did everyone see that? He has the drug, but he just didn’t drink it this time.”

With that said, he said to the higher management, “Letting such a black sheep go abroad will only harm everyone.”

Instructor Chen looked at Xiang Yingjie, who was targeting Lan Yue, and frowned. “Do you think Lan Yue is stupid? If he’s really on drugs, would he let everyone know about it?”

Xiang Yingjie snorted. “You’re his instructor, so you’re naturally biased toward him.”

This was originally the male changing room, but there were many people around. Chen Jiao also came over and said loudly, “I believe in Brother Lan.”

“Yes, I believe you too.”

“Me too.”

Several sportsmen expressed their stance.

Their results were not top-notch, but Lan Yue would guide them during training whenever he had time.

He was not arrogant like Xiang Yingjie who looked down on people who had never done well.

Lan Yue nodded at the people who believed him. His handsome face was indifferent and calm, unlike those of his age.

He walked up to Yingjie and grabbed his wrist when he was unprepared.

Xiang Yingjie furrowed his eyebrows.

Before he could react, the key on his wrist was snatched away by Lan Yue.

“What are you doing?” Xiang Yingjie said angrily.

Lan Yue pursed his pink lips and did not speak, walking straight toward Xiang Yingjie’s cabinet.

Xiang Yingjie immediately panicked.

He pulled Lan Yue. “Don’t you dare touch my cabinet.”

Lan Yue shook off Xiang Yingjie’s hand and stared at him with dark eyes. “Then why did you touch my cabinet?”

Xiang Yingjie was confused. “What did you say?”

Lan Yue smirked.

He took the key and opened Xiang Yingjie’s cabinet.

Apart from Xiang Yingjie’s clothes, there was also a small white bottle and a key to the cabinet.

“You stole my key and put medicine in my water.” Lan Yue took out the white bottle and handed it to the investigator. “Please do another check.”

Xiang Yingjie’s eyes turned red from anxiousness. He reached out his hand, wanting to snatch the bottle away.

But he was still a step too late.

Soon, the drug in the bottle was found to be the same as the one in the water bottle earlier.

Xiang Yingjie still wanted to deny it, but the higher management were not fools.

They quickly came to a conclusion.

Xiang Yingjie was suspended permanently.

…

Lan Yue took his things and walked out of the changing room with Instructor Chen.

“We’re going to the airport later. Pack up.”

Lan Yue frowned slightly. “Isn’t it tomorrow?”

“Li Yang’s stomach was not feeling well after the competition yesterday. You’ll take his place and leave today. He’ll leave tomorrow.”

Lan Yue pursed his pink lips tightly and finally said one word. “Okay.”

Back in the dormitory, Lan Yue took out his phone and called Tang Wu.

They had agreed that she would come to send him off tomorrow morning.

But because of the sudden change of date, they might not be able to meet again.

When Tang Wu received Lan Yue’s call, she had just finished rehearsing.

Tang Wu took her phone and walked out of the banquet hall. “It’s rare for you to take the initiative.”

When they were together, she would tease him from time to time.

He was shy and every time she teased him, his ears would turn red.

Seeing that he was silent on the other end of the line, she smiled. “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Weren’t you competing today? Your results must be very good, right? Anyway, I don’t have to call you to confirm it. I just know that you can definitely get into the top three.”

Lan Yue said, “Yes, but we’re going to the airport later. A teammate is not feeling well and I have to take his place.”

After Lan Yue finished, Tang Wu remained silent for a while.

“Tangtang, I’m sorry.”

Even if they were not together now, Tang Wu could imagine his current expression. He must look pitiful.

“What’s there to be sorry about? You didn’t make the decision, and you have to obey your superiors.” Tang Wu paused. “Which flight are you taking?”

Lan Yue gave her a flight number.

Tang Wu hummed and pretended to be relaxed. “Be safe and continue to work hard. Your youth is limited!”

After Lan Yue ended the call with Tang Wu, he stared at the screen for a long time.

…

What Lan Yue did not know was that Tang Wu entered the hotel after answering the call and told Nan Xun that she would leave first before changing into a gown.

Tang Wu came out in a hurry. Seeing this, Qi Chen walked to her side. “Tangtang, why are you in such a hurry?”

Tang Wu shook her head. “Nothing.”

Qi Chen said, “Tang Mo is treating us to dinner tonight. Aren’t you coming?”

“I still have something on.”

Tang Wu called her assistant and asked her to check for the earliest flight to the neighboring city.

Her assistant told her after checking that the earliest was three hours later.

Tang Wu drove home, took the things she had bought, and drove to the neighboring city.

If she drove faster, she should be able to see Lan Yue before getting on the plane.

Tang Wu drove toward the neighboring city at a frightening speed.

Tang Mo called her but she rejected the call.

Several calls from the company came in and she turned off her phone.

Tang Wu had never thought that she had such a crazy side to her.

She only spent three hours on the journey that should have taken four hours.

It was still ten minutes away from the airport but there was a traffic jam.

Tang Wu looked at the long line of traffic and frowned.

She glanced at the time. He was about to get on the plane.

Tang Wu could not wait anymore. She took her phone, carried her bag, and parked the car by the side. She pushed open the door and ran out.

Hence, in the traffic, a woman with long hair and wearing a dark green dress became the focus of attention.

When they arrived at the airport, Tang Wu looked around but did not see Lan Yue.

She turned on her phone and made a call. “Hello, I need your help…”

…

Lan Yue, Instructor Chen, Chen Jiao, and two other members got on the plane.

Their business class cabin was not as luxurious as the first class one.

Lan Yue sat with one of his teammates while Chen Jiao and Instructor Chen sat nearer to the aisle.

Chen Jiao looked at Lan Yue, who had not spoken since they left and felt that he was not in a good mood.

“Ah Yue, are you still sad about Xiang Yingjie framing you? He was punished this time. Don’t take it to heart.”

Lan Yue replied, “I’m fine.”

Chen Jiao wanted to say more, but seeing him close his eyes and looking like he did not want to talk, she could only look away.

At this moment, Chen Jiao saw a graceful figure rushing over from the corner of her eye.

Chen Jiao widened her eyes in shock.
