Chapter 38 - Exclusive Skating Rink
However, it was a pity that he had never gone back there or kept in contact ever since he went home.
He"d wanted to go look for her, but the Old Master refused. He had only been brought over there so he didn"t know the location either.
Thereafter, he slowly put the past away in his heart. However, he would remember from time to time because of the red string that the little girl gave him.
Now that he saw her, it was inevitable to not feel a little excited.
However, Xing Jiuan had been pampered since she was young. When he heard that she would be partic.i.p.ating in a racing compet.i.tion, he could also imagine that she must be a willful young lady who lived a carefree life. She might even be a little spoiled, but he did not expect to see her this way.
All of a sudden, Lu Zhichen"s phone rang. He picked up the call.
"Ninth Master, something happened at Nation M"s side. Our people might be in trouble."
"I understand. Come find me at the office in two hours."
After hanging up the phone, he received a message from his uncle. He had already arrived.
Lu Zhichen sent him his location and waited in the car.
Lu Zhichen"s uncle was a bachelor in his thirties. Old Master Lu had even nagged him about it before, but then he didn"t care anymore after a while.
He liked to travel. Therefore, he spent very little time at home every year.
"Ah! You drove here yourself."
Hearing his uncle"s words, Lu Zhichen turned his head to look at him. "Put on your seatbelt. We"re leaving."
"I haven"t seen you in so long, and yet you didn"t say you missed me."
Lu Zhichen did not give an answer to such childish words.
…
"Little Senior Sister, what are we having for lunch?" Su Yize asked expectantly.
Xing Jiuan sat in the back seat with him while Mu Qing drove the car alone at the front.
"What do you want to eat?" Xing Jiuan asked.
"It doesn"t matter what I eat. I just want to have some fun.
"Little Senior Sister, can you bring me around to play?"
"I…" Xing Jiuan suddenly remembered that she was going to meet a friend.
A very important friend to her and, seemingly, to Mu Qing as well.
The two seemed to have met outside a newly opened skating rink.
"There"s a new skating rink around here, if I recall. Do you want to go?"
"Are we going together, Little Senior Sister? I"m extremely good at ice skating!"
"Yes, let"s go together."
After a pause, Xing Jiuan asked Mu Qing, "Senior Brother, are you coming along?"
Mu Qing"s gaze was gentle. "Okay."
Lu Mingxi and Ou Qi heard about it and wanted to go as well.
Xing Jiuan couldn"t remember when those two met, and she didn"t try to find out either.
They entered the skating rink together. Perhaps because they had just opened for business and there were many promotional activities, many people came.
This place did look good, but there were too many people here. It made one instantly lose the desire to play.
Xing Jiuan owned a few houses, and one had a small ice rink that belonged exclusively to her. Therefore, she rarely went out to ice skate.
"There are so many people. Let"s go back instead."
Xing Jiuan looked at the young man"s dejected look and said, "It"s alright, there is another place."
Su Yize looked at Xing Jiuan in confusion. He was then taken to Xing Jiuan"s exclusive skating rink. He was flabbergasted.
She was too rich, indeed.
Even his family wouldn"t have specially prepared an ice rink for him.
He only had a small study room, and it was for learning purposes.
"Little Senior Sister, is this yours?" He seemed to be extremely amazed as he couldn"t help but move closer to Xing Jiuan. "This is too amazing!"
Xing Jiuan couldn"t help but laugh. "How so?"
"Little Senior Sister, I suddenly realized that I"m just a layman."
Xing Jiuan didn"t understand.
"Big Boss, please take in your little junior brother."
