Chapter 1032: That Night
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Charles looked at the two figures leaving, and his lips squirmed a bit, but he didn’t say anything in the end.
“Charles, what are they talking about? What business in Europe?” asked Charles’ woman.
“I don’t know either. Who knows what they are saying? It’s inexplicable.” Charles shook his head, but there was some cold sweat on his forehead.
My ident.i.ty is so hidden. How could it be discovered? If it were the well-informed people in the industry, it is still reasonable, but these two ordinary people who I just met by chance actually…
…
“Yanyan, what happened to you? Why were you so weird just now? You promised to race with him?” Yang Ming couldn’t figure it out. Logically, w.a.n.g Xiaoyan wouldn’t be so reckless.
“Who said that I wanted to race with him? Isn’t that looking for death?” said w.a.n.g Xiaoyan with a smile. “I just wanted to test if he is ‘the person.’ I just thought it was fun.”
“Who is he?” asked Yang Ming curiously.
“The heir of a European a.s.sa.s.sin family,” explained w.a.n.g Xiaoyan. “The third-ranked a.s.sa.s.sin group in the world, the Crocodile a.s.sa.s.sin Group. I heard that the only heir to their family didn’t want to inherit the family, but he wants to be a racer, and he even got a little famous…”
“So, you suspect that Charles is he?” asked Yang Ming.
” En , I really suspected it.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan nodded.
“But there are so many racers. How are you sure that this Charles is him?” Yang Ming was puzzled.
“It’s only a guess.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan said, “First, the family is Asian, and Charles has met this condition. Second, according to inside information, the heir to the family is currently on a racing team in China…”
“Only based on these two points?” Yang Ming was still a little unbelievable.
“Of course, there is a third point. That is the rumor which says that the English name of the heir to this family is called Charles!” said w.a.n.g Xiaoyan with laughter. “Otherwise, do you think I can calculate it like a G.o.d?”
“D*mn!” Yang Ming suddenly realized that he had been fooled by w.a.n.g Xiaoyan, and he couldn’t help but shake his head and smile bitterly. “You can’t just say it directly. You even said first and second.”
“Wouldn’t it be boring if I say it directly?!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan smiled. “But even with this, I was not very sure, so I promised to race with him for further exploration.”
“I understand. When you said that you wanted his business in Europe, his face changed slightly. Although it was only a moment, it was enough to explain the question,” said Yang Ming.
“Yeah, right!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan nodded. “You had noticed this too.”
“I had noticed it, but I didn’t think so much.” Yang Ming touched his chin, amused. “I thought he was not willing to spend such a high price. Who knew that there was a hidden story inside.”
“However, it’s fine that you don’t know. I just got to know about it by chance. I just thought of it when I met him just now,” said w.a.n.g Xiaoyan.
“So what if you confirmed his ident.i.ty? Do you have a hatred with the Crocodile a.s.sa.s.sin Group?” asked Yang Ming.
“Not really. I just thought that it was fun,” said w.a.n.g Xiaoyan childishly. “That Charles must be trembling with fear now right… wahahahaha !”
Yang Ming was speechless looking at w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s appearance. Is there anyone like this? She just wants to scare others.
“Now I am much more refreshed, ai , thanks to this Charles, or I will be depressed all night,” said w.a.n.g Xiaoyan with a sigh of relief.
Yang Ming thought in his heart, This Charles really had terrible luck meeting w.a.n.g Xiaoyan . They stopped a taxi and returned to the community. Just after getting out of the car, he received a call from the Sichuan restaurant telling them that seats were available now and asking if Yang Ming was still dining in.
Yang Ming and w.a.n.g Xiaoyan looked at each other, and they got the answer. They hadn’t eaten yet, so Yang Ming said, “Okay, we are going right now.”
“This restaurant is really popular. We can only get a seat after such a long time,” exclaimed w.a.n.g Xiaoyan. “However, the time pa.s.sed really quick after encountering Charles.”
They came to the Sichuan restaurant and found that business was still lively, which made Yang Ming very puzzled. However, later, they learned that many young people from Sichuan, who worked here in the technology market near this community, came here. This was the only Sichuan restaurant, so it would be popular.
Both Yang Ming and w.a.n.g Xiaoyan were starving, so their appet.i.te increased greatly. The two large dishes were finished in the end. Yang Ming actually ate three bowls of rice in one go. He ate a lot more than when he was with Zhao Ying yesterday.
After they were full, they naturally returned to w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s villa, where they discussed the tacit understanding of mutual cooperation. Tonight, Chen Mengyan, Lin Zhiyun, and Zhou Jiajia were not there. Yang Ming simply did not go back to his villa and went directly to w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s villa.
…
“Ms. Zhao, why don’t you call Mr. Yang first? Miss Chen is not here today, so Mr. Yang may not be back.” Aunty Li changed the hot tea for Zhao Ying and said.
“No, I will wait a little longer…” Zhao Ying held a small box tightly in her hand, and her face was flushed.
“It’s so late already. I am afraid that Mr. Yang is staying at his home…” Aunty Li looked at the lovely little girl in front of her eyes and couldn’t help but say, “You haven’t eaten dinner yet, right? Let me get something for you to eat.”
“No need… Aunty Li, thank you.” Zhao Ying shook her head. Her eyes were still looking out the window of the villa, and the palm of her hand holding the small box was damp with sweat.
Zhao Ying was very nervous. Her heart was palpitating quickly. She felt uneasy, and she had some expectations, but she was still somewhat scared. She was a girl. It took all her courage for her to take the initiative to come to Yang Ming’s home, and you even asked her to call Yang Ming? She had no additional courage for that…
Time pa.s.sed by slowly. Zhao Ying still stood in front of the window, staring at the window tightly…
Suddenly, Zhao Ying’s body trembled fiercely, and she almost fell to the ground! She saw Yang Ming… but Yang Ming was actually holding w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s hand! They walked over, chatting happily!
Zhao Ying only felt a rush of breathing, and her mind went blank. She just looked blankly at Yang Ming and w.a.n.g Xiaoyan walking past in front of the villa, then they entered w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s villa…
Zhao Ying regained her focus. Her face was pale, and her hand was against the wall. She felt a surge of complicated emotions. The tears began to swirl in her eyes…
“Ms. Zhao, what’s wrong with you?” Aunty Li noticed that Zhao Ying’s expression and movements seemed strange, and she asked quickly.
“No… nothing…” Zhao Ying shook her head and said sadly, “I am a little dizzy…”
“Then rest on the sofa for a while,” advised Aunty Li. “I’ll get some food for you, or…?”
“I really don’t need it, Aunty Li.” Zhao Ying sat on the sofa and shook her head depressingly. Now, how could she have the mood to eat anything?
Looking at the small box in her hand, Zhao Ying didn’t know what to do… Why? Why did Yang Ming and w.a.n.g Xiaoyan have to lie to me? They are obviously in a relations.h.i.+p, but they still lied to me that they had no relations.h.i.+p…
Zhao Ying bit her lip and didn’t know what to do. They have already held hands. Do they really have no other relations.h.i.+p? However, this does not explain anything.Zhao Ying could only comfort herself this way.
Perhaps, they are really just friends. It’s just holding hands. Holding hands between friends is nothing, right? I used to be friends with Yang Ming too. Didn’t I hold his hand before?
“Ms. Zhao, it’s really late. Maybe you should call Mr. Yang, or…” said Aunty Li with some concern.
“No, I will wait here for him…” Zhao Ying sighed. There was still an illusion in her heart, the illusion that Yang Ming was just visiting w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s villa as a guest, and he would come back later.
Aunty Li shook her head helplessly. However, she was just a nanny. She couldn’t interfere and question Mr. Yang’s matter. Otherwise, she personally would have called Yang Ming.
The night is… so quiet.
Zhao Ying was sitting alone on the sofa in the living room, and Aunty Li would come out every once in a while to make her a cup of hot tea.
Zhao Ying felt sorry troubling Aunty Li. “Aunty Li, you don’t have to care about me. You can go to rest!”
“I’m fine… My previous job was to take care of a patient, so I am used to the life of waking up and sleeping,” smiled Aunty Li indifferently.
Time pa.s.sed by quietly and unconsciously. It was almost midnight, but Yang Ming still hadn’t returned.
Looking at w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s villa next door, the lights had been turned off. Zhao Ying’s nose twitched, and tears fall down…
After hearing the movement behind her, Zhao Ying quickly wiped her tears. She looked back and saw Aunty Li coming over with a cup of oatmeal. “Eat some oatmeal. Otherwise, if you really don’t eat anything, it is not good.”
“Thank you…” Seeing that Aunty Li had put the oatmeal in front of her, Zhao Ying had to accept it and eat it slowly. Although the oatmeal was very sweet and delicious, Zhao Ying couldn’t taste it.
The only remaining hope in her heart finally became dimmer. Finally, Zhao Ying sighed. It seems that Yang Ming will not come back tonight.
The sun had risen up slowly, and it was already the next day. One night had pa.s.sed.
Zhao Ying sighed. She looked at the small box in her hand and put it on the coffee table next to her. Zhao Ying thought about it for a second, then she took it back. She did that repeatedly for a few times. Zhao Ying still retrieved it in her hands in the end, and then she said to Aunty Li, “Aunty Li, I am leaving…”
” Oh , Ms. Zhao, you are leaving already…” Aunty Li also sighed, then she sent Zhao Ying off.
