Chapter 147: And Their Rift Widens (1)
Only people like her who were too busy for window shopping and mindless chit-chat were kept in the dark. She had become a celebrity at the school now.
Upon hearing the conversation, she immediately turned to her phone to check out the forum. And there it was, the top trending video clip that captured a girl fighting in action!
When she tapped on the video for a closer look, she found that it was undeniably her!
What the f*ck!
This was something that she did not like about this Internet era. Without knowing, one could get filmed and be posted online for all to see, and then become the talk of the town unwittingly!
But still, she was so well-covered that day, so how did Long Feiting notice her?
She suddenly recalled that the boy seemed to pay particular attention to her eyes.
Don’t tell me he could recognize me by my eyes alone? And then, he might have subsequently gone looking for her on this street and finally spoke to the clients who’d engaged her service. When he realized that the girl was called Song Xing, was it that he laid a trap for her through the client representative?
If this was his doing, then this would solve the mystery regarding the bodyguards in disguise.
The Long family is super rich!
At she thought of this, she cleverly dodged the surveillance cameras to get to the ladies’ toilet. After tossing aside the cap and the s.h.i.+eld, she put on her shades instead.
It was fortunate that as the sun was still blazing, there were many who were shopping with their shades on as well. Thus, she blended well with the crowd.
After putting on the shades, she purposely walked past the store and took a peek. After taking a glance in the shop, she was more certain than ever that her suspicion was correct.
Hence, she returned a text message to the client.
“I’m really sorry. As I got a terrible tummy ache while on my way there, I can’t carry out the a.s.signment as agreed. My partner is unable to come as well due to personal reasons. I think you better call the police today!”
The boy narrowed his eyes when he read the text. He reckoned that his trap had been exposed and that the girl was preparing to run!
If not, why would she communicate only with text messages and not make a call instead?
He immediately replied: “How can you do this? We have an agreement. No one will dare to engage your service again if you don’t fulfill your obligations!”
“I understand. This is our fault entirely. I shouldn’t have fallen sick when I’m on a.s.signment. Regardless of whether or not there are valid reasons, I shouldn’t have gone back on our contract terms. I’m no longer fit to fulfill your contract. I’ll compensate you ten times the amount that you’d paid as stated on the contract. I hope you can find a better person to resolve this issue for you in the future.”
Since Long Feiting had followed this lead to get to her, she knew that she could no longer continue with this a.s.signment. All she could do was to close this case with compensation as stated on the agreement.
The moment she thought about the money she had to fork out, which was ten times more, and the half a million yuan that the boy had defrauded her out of, she felt mad enough to want to kick his *ss!
You just wait and see! I’ll grow my power and, one day, I’ll make sure you repay all these debts ten times over!
As soon as he saw her reply, he knew she was calling it quits totally and that he would lose this lead soon. This would make the task of locating her more difficult in the future.
Knowing that she would not pick up his call, he hastily sent a text: “I’m not looking for you for the damage to my car. I’m looking for you because you resemble someone whom I’ve been searching for for many years. She’s my benefactor. I’m looking for her only because I want to show my grat.i.tude. Even if you don’t turn out to be the person I’m looking for, I won’t hurt you! Please agree to meet up with me just for a chat! I’m really not bothered about the car! I just want to speak to you! I have many cars for you to destroy if you wis.h.!.+”
After sending this text, he quickly added, “Little Star, I’m Little Fatty! Do you still remember me?”
