At Error's words, the face of the girl paled.


"CEO Lu...still wants her to be by his side?"


Silver gave her a disdainful side-eye.


"Why do you think we'll waste our time here, doing everything to keep an eye on her? He even made us temporarily stop searching for the culprit, which should be his top priority right now."


Silver sighed.


"This isn't like him at all..."


Error adjusted his glasses and said solemnly, "When a man ignores the danger to his life in order to pursue a woman...that is what we call: ai!" [1]


Silver rolled her eyes, pretending to edge away from him. "Otaku, don't drag us normal people down with you."


"Didn't CEO Lu get a death threat?" The voice of the girl faltered, her gaze clouding. "Should he really be focusing on other people right now?"


Error lifted his hand with a half-hearted shrug, his palm up in a 'So?' gesture.


"Why do you have to care about that? Just do your job. We're his employees, not his friends. If he wants to use his money to make us guard Miss Hui, then we guard her. Don't ask so many questions."


"Make sure that what happened last night wouldn't be repeated," reminded Silver. "If you slip up and do something that could harm Miss Hui again..."


For a brief moment, all that could be heard from the laptop was the sound of running water. Then the girl on screen lowered her eyes, and in a soft voice said, "Teacher, I promise not to do it again."


Silver regarded her with a pinched face. After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, her expression turned back to normal.


"It's good that you've come back to your senses. I'll deal with you later."


Her voice was still cold.


The girl nodded, and Error ended the video call. The two people inside the car became silent, the tension between them palpable.


Finally, Silver opened her mouth to say, "Error, do we tell the boss..."


She trailed off, but her voice, with a tentative question in it, rested in the air.


Error ran a hand over his face.


"What do you want me to say? If we tell the boss now that Miss Hui had nearly died on our watch, we'll die. If we don't tell the boss and he finds out...we'll die. We fucked up big time, Silver."


Silver bit her lip. "It was my fault. I should have personally guarded Miss Hui and had not left it in my junior's hands."


Error didn't reply. In any case, both of them were entrusted in keeping an eye on Miss Hui. Even if the mistake had lain with Silver, they would still both be blamed.


"Let's not tell him." Silver gave a slow shake of her head. "Aside from the two of us, those two guards, my junior, and Miss Hui are the only ones who know about this incident. We could keep the rest of their mouths shut, but if Miss Hui decides to tell the boss, then there's nothing that we can do."


"I don't think she'll tell him." Error's tone was certain. "I've been spying on Miss Hui since Beijing, and she doesn't get along well with the boss. Why do you think she broke off the engagement? They're having a lover's spat, so we're safe for now. Once they kiss and make-up, then it'll be the day of our funeral."


"I hope they don't make up," Silver said fervently. "Error, do you think she and the boss will get back together?"


"Who knows. With boss being so persistent and Miss Hui determined to run away from him? Only time will tell."


Silver sighed and didn't continue on asking questions. Error was right. Starting from the time that her junior had made a mistake, their fate were out of their hands.


All they could do now was to wait.
