Zhuang Nainai paused, then said, “Okay, let’s meet at West Gate, near the spicy soup shop that you love.”
“Okay,” she answered crisply.
After putting down the phone, Zhuang Nainai began using the GPS function in her cell phone to locate the nearest train station.
No matter what the situation with Si Zhengting was like, the biggest imperative was still to leave the country and bring Mother Zhuang back home.
In any case, she also felt that both she and Si Zhengting needed time apart from each other to cool down and decide what they wanted to do with their relationship.
If they really had misunderstandings and unresolvable issues, then at least they could part amicably!
After she thought of this, Zhuang Nainai’s mood lightened up. But she was on the high street of Beijing, and the people who came here to shop were highly affluent without the need to take the train!
Which meant that the nearest train station was five kilometers away!
She was prepared to get a layer of her foot’s skin rubbed off from all the walking in her stilettos!
Heaving a sigh, Zhuang Nainai decided to indulge in herself this one time.
Walking to the roadside, she began trying to flag a taxi.
Soon, a taxi approached her upon seeing her flagging it down. As the taxi stopped in front of her, the chauffeur wound down the window and asked, “Miss, where are…”
Before he could finish speaking, Zhuang Nainai heard hurried footsteps coming from behind her. In the next instant, the taxi door was swung open, and a figure slid into the taxi. “Hi, please take me to XXX.”
Zhuang Nainai was speechless.
The chauffeur was equally stunned.
The chauffeur cast a glance at Zhuang Nainai, then at the person already in the backseat. Not wanting to create a scene, he kept quiet and drove off.
Zhuang Nainai watched the taxi leave and began to curse inwardly.
Damn!
The Imperial Group had booked the whole of Shangri-La Hotel for the night, and apart from the staff at the hotel, the people present were the rich and powerful. She didn’t recognize the person who had just stolen her taxi, but he didn’t look poor or anything — why was he so lacking in character?
People really differed.
Since when was someone like Si Zhengting ever impolite?
Zhuang Nainai pouted and continued trying to hail a taxi.
Due to the fact that it was the evening peak hour, there weren’t a lot of vacant taxis. Zhuang Nainai then had to wait for a full five minutes before she managed to get another vacant taxi to pull up in front of her.
The chauffeur wound down his window. “Miss, where are…”
Again, the chauffeur was speaking halfway when Zhuang Nainai heard footsteps coming from behind her. Before she could react, the person slid into the taxi before her once more.
Zhuang Nainai was speechless with shock.
These people entered the taxis too quickly! If she didn’t know that he was here to steal her taxi, she would have thought he was in a rush to reincarnate!
Zhuang Nainai angrily stomped her feet, cursing at the person.
—
From a distance away, in the shadows, Si Zhengting stood and fixed his eyes on her.
Beside him stood a bodyguard clad in black. Seeing the way Zhuang Nainai was stomping angrily and turning to look at Mr. Si’s expressionless face, Ji Chen’s lips twitched. “Mr. Si, this is our new bodyguard. Madam hasn’t seen him before, so she won’t recognize him.”
As he said this, another taxi came by. With Si Zhengting nodding his head in approval, the bodyguard rushed forward and hopped into the taxi.
This time, Zhuang Nainai began scolding openly. Yet, in her golden outfit and her styled-up hair, she no longer looked ferocious. Instead, her annoyance and anger appeared somewhat cute..
