Chapter 124: I Don’t Dare to Provoke the Young One, so I’ll Unleash My Anger at the Old One Instead
Qin Yuqiao was finally persuaded by Qin Yi and took out her phone to call Zi Yi. She originally wanted to ask her to hang out tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, she did not manage to reach her.
When Qin Yuqiao put the call on speaker, a mechanical voice spoke instead of Zi Yi. “The number you just dialed is not recognised.”
“You can’t blame me for this.”
Qin Yi thought for a moment and said, “I will find a way to locate her. When the time comes, you have to befriend her no matter what you do.”
Qin Yuqiao smiled confidently. “Don’t worry, it’s only a trivial matter.”
On the second day, Zi Xu arrived at the capital. He found the two bodyguards he had previously dispatched to locate Zi Yi. The moment he asked, they informed him that they had never found out where she lived.
After hearing this, Zi Xu instantly lost his temper.
“You’ve been in the capital for so long, yet you’re telling me you’ve never even located her!”
“Boss, we…”
The two bodyguards felt wronged. From the start, they had informed the Madam when they could not locate Zi Yi. It was her who asked them to continue their search.
Could it be that the boss was in the dark?
“You’re still trying to make excuses, aren’t you?” When he saw that they wanted to argue, he became angrier. “I paid you and it’s not for you to dilly dally and fool around in the capital!”
One of the bodyguards could not endure it anymore and said, “Boss, we’ve informed the Madam from the start. She asked for us to continue looking in the capital regardless if we could locate her or not.”
“Madam? Do you even see me as your boss? You won’t even report to me when you can’t locate her, is that it?”
“…”
The two bodyguards stopped talking.
Zi Xu calmed down.
Since his daughter won the champions.h.i.+ps in the racing compet.i.tion, she must be doing well in the capital during this period of time. Therefore, it would not be difficult to locate her.
“Go check which racing team Zi Yi belonged to and get their boss’ phone number.”
He did not believe that even the racing team’s boss did not know where she lived.
When Ouyang Ming learned that Zi Yi’s family had come knocking, he was alone and drowning his sorrows with alcohol.
At present, the setback he received made him wallow in depression, he currently felt like destroying the whole world. When he heard that Zi Yi’s father came knocking, he slammed the gla.s.s cup on the table and sneered. “How timely. I don’t dare to provoke the younger one, so I’ll unleash my anger at the old one instead.”
…
Zi Yi spent the whole night drawing the bas.e.m.e.nt design and went to Lu Jingye’s residence first thing in the morning.
Lu Jingye looked at the spirited young lady, then glanced at the design and said in surprise, “You want to build a bas.e.m.e.nt laboratory?”
Zi Yi was even more surprised. This man had identified it in a glance.
“That’s right, I’m idle now anyways. It’s not a bad idea to do some experiments.”
Lu Jingye did not pry further as to what experiments she intended to conduct.
As long as she does not run about, it would be fine. “I’ll immediately arrange for people.”
“Then I’ll move over to your house today?”
“Ok.”
Lu Jingye called for the housekeeper and said, “Prepare a room on the second floor for Zi Yi. She will be staying here for the time being.”
The housekeeper’s heart beat wildly in response.
The Second Young Master and Miss Zi’s relations.h.i.+p had progressed to such an extent?!
Does it mean that before long, the Second Young Master would be bringing Miss Zi back to the Lu Family for his parents to meet her?
When he thought of that, the housekeeper cautiously replied, “I understand.”
After which, he asked, “I wonder what style of room Miss Zi fancies? I’ll immediately send someone to clean up the room.”
Zi Yi never expected that she could choose what style she liked. Therefore, she looked at Lu Jingye with surprise in her eyes.
Lu Jingye nodded at her.
Zi Yi’s lips curved into a smile. Without the slightest reservation, she informed the housekeeper of the style she liked.
