Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Zi Yi heard Zhou s.h.i.+yu’s arrogant voice, she knew what was going on. “You must be nervous.”
Sure enough, Zhou s.h.i.+yu seemed to have his tail stepped on and he immediately raised his voice. “How could I possibly be nervous?!”
Zi Yi sneered and said, “If you’re not nervous, why are you calling me right now? If my memory serves me right, the country you’re in is five hours behind and that is to say, it’s only just past 1:00 a.m on your side.”
The other end of the phone call went silent.
Zi Yi’s voice became slightly quieter. “You’re not asleep even at 1:00 a.m and so are you intending to fall asleep during the race?”
The other side still remained silent.
Zi Yi knew that he was listening and continued to speak. “My racing club doesn’t support useless people. If you can’t even handle the psychological pressure of such a small race, you might as well quit the racing circle.”
Sounds of Zhou s.h.i.+yu’s hastened breathing could be heard and two seconds later, he gritted his teeth and said, “Who says I can’t bear the pressure? I got up to go to the washroom and called to let you know in pa.s.sing that I have a compet.i.tion today.”
Speaking up to here, he grumpily said, “I’m sleepy, bye.”
He hung up the phone immediately after.
Zi Yi looked at the disconnected call and laughed and put away her phone as she headed towards the dinner table.
After Zi Yi finished her meal, it was snowing even harder.
Lu Jingye’s call arrived at that moment.
“Yiyi, I will be home late today.”
Zi Yi furrowed her brows. “Did you meet with trouble over there?”
“No. There’s a snowstorm in L City and it’s inconvenient for the helicopter to fly.”
Zi Yi thought for a moment and said, “Amongst the circular b.a.l.l.s, I pa.s.sed to you, find the ones with the serial numbers 11 and 12 and stick them on the helicopter. It can s.h.i.+eld the helicopter from the snowstorm.”
She had thought of how the weather might cause many other problems and so, she specially made some items that were not available yet on the ancient Earth for Lu Jingye.
He responded with an ok and all of a sudden, he asked, “Did you not sleep last night?”
Zi Yi’s eyes looked around and she acted coquettishly. “Ah Jing, I miss you. I can’t even sleep when you’re not here.”
Lu Jingye’s heart softened in an instant and he lightly sighed while reminding her. “It’s snowing today and it will be cold outside. Wear something thicker when you go out. Don’t catch a cold.”
Zi Yi’s lips curled up and she said, “Got it.”
She hung up the phone after that and went upstairs to grab a thick outer coat to put on. She then grabbed her backpack and headed outside.
‘When she was at the front yard, she did not expect to see the housekeeper standing next to her racing car.
As soon as the housekeeper saw Zi Yi making her way over, he said, “Miss Zi, the road is slippery due to the snow and it’s unsafe to drive a racing car. I have prepared other cars for you.”
Zi Yi glanced at the SUV parked right beside the racing car. She thought for a second and nodded her head before she walked over, opened the door, and got in. Before she left, she waved at the housekeeper. “Bye.”
Immediately after, she drove out.
The snow was getting heavier as time pa.s.sed. When Zi Yi was approaching the school gates of M.Uni, she happened to see Zhang Hanyu coming out of the milk tea shop with a cup of milk tea.
Zhang Hanyu was wearing a smokey gray long coat and underneath he was wearing a black sweater. As for his pants, he wore dark-colored denim jeans and he also had a scarf that was similar in color to his sweater.
He was headed towards the school gates with an umbrella in one hand and the milk tea in another.
Zi Yi guessed that he had bought the drink for her cousin and she subconsciously reduced her speed to follow him from behind. She did not drive over to offer him to get in the car.
The car Zi Yi drove today was extremely low-profile and no one noticed her.
Clearly, Zhang Hanyu had not noticed her either. He stopped when he arrived at the school gate and put away the umbrella before he walked into the guardhouse. When he came out, the umbrella was no longer with him.
Following that, she saw him taking out his phone to make a call.
He had directly stood under the heavy snow instead of taking shelter when he was making that call.
After hanging up the phone, he fully unzipped his coat and hugged the milk tea in his embrace.
Zi Yi saw his actions and parked her car by the side to wait.
Zhang Hanyu was not holding onto an umbrella right now and soon, a layer of snow stacked up on his head. Just then, a familiar-looking white car drove over.
The white car stopped in front of him and the first thing he did was to pa.s.s the milk tea inside, before he patted the snow off his head and got in the car.
Zi Yi looked at the car that drove into M.Uni and slightly narrowed her eyes.
She decided to make an additional invisible robot to protect her cousin.
After her lessons ended in the afternoon, Zi Yi went to the School of Fine Arts to look for Dou Xiangling.
“Cousin.”
Dou Xiangling was wearing a white turtleneck today and a checkered purple and white coat on top. She was also wearing a pastel, nude long skirt.
She appeared gentle and soft, giving off a particularly nice feeling.
She was currently sorting out the painting tools in the office and she turned around as soon as she heard Zi Yi’s voice. She then smiled and asked, “Yiyi, why have you come over?”
“Icame to have a meal with you.” Zi Yi walked over to her side and took a look at the painting tools she had arranged. “Cousin, why are you arranging so many tools?”
“Hanyu said that the man-made lake behind the school would have a faint hazy fog during snowy days and it is especially beautiful. I am preparing to paint together with him in the afternoon.”
Zi Yi furrowed her brows. ”
“s snowing so heavily today and you will end up sitting there for hours after you start painting. You will be frozen.”
“There’s a pavilion for teachers and students of our school to sit there and paint. The pavilion shelters us from the wind from three sides and it won’t be cold.”
Zi Yi still disagreed with her plans. Dou Xiangling grabbed her hand and said, “Yiyi, don’t worry. I have visited the top of the Alps before in the past to paint and I wasn’t frozen at that time. How could I possibly be frozen here?”
Zi Yi lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before she suddenly asked, “Are Teacher Zhang’s and your lesson times the same?”
“There are some that are at the same time… Yiyi, why did you ask this?”
Zi Yi looked at her warm gaze and deliberately said in an unhappy tone, “I thought that both your schedules are the same. I would often see him coming over to look for you and there seems to be no opportunity for us to hang out alone.”
Dou Xiangling was momentarily stunned at her words before she started laughing. “You child… Are you being jealous of Hanyu right now?”
Zi Yi’s expression became taut and she proudly denied it. “Nope.”
Dou Xiangling determined that she was being jealous and pulled her hand as they headed outside. While walking, she took out her phone and gave Zhang Hanyu a call. When he answered, she said, “Hanyu, I have something on in the afternoon and I won’t be having lunch with you. Don’t order for me.”
She hung up the phone and looked at Zi Yi. “Let’s go and have lunch together. I won’t let him appear before you.”
Zi Yi revealed a bright smile.
The two of them directly headed to another restaurant for lunch.
While eating, they discussed the planning of the gallery.
After the meal, Zi Yi suddenly received a report from the manager robot of the bar.
“Master, some higher-ups are coming over to our bar for a check up. They said that our store had been reported.”
Without even needing to think, Zi Yi knew that someone was trying to deal with her… “What did they report us on?”
