Chapter 301: Refusing Xiao Yunzhe

Where are you now?

I'm at Xing Ya Company right now.

Xing Ya Company? As expected, it seems she really didn't make a mistake just now; it must be you.

What? What do you mean by 'not mistaken'?

Did you see Peipei today? And she was sitting in a car with that foreigner.

How did he know?

Zong Mengni started thinking about these things.

Back then, he clearly saw that Liu Peipei shouldn't have noticed him; could it be that he overlooked something?

So, did Liu Peipei see me?

That's right, she did see you, so she's a bit worried and asked me to check on your situation.

Don't worry, although I saw her, I can pretend I didn't; I'm quite clear on that.

Okay, thank you really; I know this puts you in a difficult spot.

Alright, my mind's a mess right now; if you have nothing else, I'll hang up.

Wait, why don't you come out tonight? Let's meet and talk properly.

No, I really don't have the mood today; let's do it another day—I'll call you when I have time.

After Zong Mengni said that, she hung up the phone directly.

This was Zong Mengni's first refusal of him, and it indeed made Xiao Yunzhe feel a bit disappointed.

However, Xiao Yunzhe is not a cruel person.

Since Zong Mengni doesn't want to meet him, there must be her own reasons.

Alright then, I won't disturb you; we'll stay in touch if anything comes up.

Okay, that's it.

After speaking, Xiao Yunzhe hung up the phone.

At that moment, Zong Mengni sat alone in the car, truly unsure how to face all of this.

Now it's certain: those two are putting on an act with Zong Long.

And this act is likely meant for her to watch.

Zong Mengni never expected her own flesh-and-blood father to do something like this behind her back.

Such behavior indeed made Zong Mengni feel a bit chilled at heart.

She drove alone along the riverside road, wandering aimlessly.

Honestly, she didn't even know where she should go.

Anyway, he didn't want to go back to face that empty home, that cold house.

Xiao Ming kept sitting in the office, patiently waiting for news.

Finally, at half past eight, he could guess that if everything went smoothly between them, they should have met by now.

So Xiao Ming quickly gathered his things and then headed to that hotel.

After arriving at the hotel, Xiao Ming parked his car in a nearby lot from afar and then walked over on foot.

After all, Xiao Ming's car is extremely familiar in this city; many people can recognize it at a glance.

General Manager Xiao, this way.

Just as he approached the hotel, Xiao Ming heard someone calling him, so he turned to look.

He saw Ma Zhuli accompanied by two men in black, sitting in a pavilion at that moment.

So he strode straight over.

How's it going? What's the situation inside?

General Manager Xiao, the two have been inside for about half an hour; they're still eating in the private room.

While speaking, he handed over a binocular and placed it in Xiao Ming's hand.

Xiao Ming merely looked through the binocular and clearly saw that only two people were in the private room, and they seemed quite close.

Especially that foreigner, from time to time leaning over to whisper in Liu Peipei's ear, no one knows what they're saying.

Moreover, that hand never seemed to leave Liu Peipei's side.

Damn, what a lecherous old man.

Heh? What's up? Do you look a bit pained?

It's not sympathy; just say it—Liu Peipei is such a good girl, to be treated like that... frankly, I can't swallow this anger.

Don't worry, General Manager Xiao, haven't you seen Liu Peipei? She's used to such situations and handles them with ease.

Yes, Xiao Ming had already sensed that.

No matter where that lecher puts his hand, Liu Peipei always finds an excuse within a couple of seconds and pulls his hand back.

Has it been like this since they went in? And what about the other one? Or is there another foreigner?

That one? He brought a blonde beauty and already went to his own room.

Heh, that's interesting; if they're not in separate rooms at the same time, then who actually holds those important items?

I'm not sure, but if we keep watching that foreigner, I'd guess he's more likely to have them.

Alright, let's wait patiently; we don't know what trick that girl will pull.

After saying that, Xiao Ming passed the binocular over and then sat on the nearby bench.

Before he knew it, time had passed.

By the time it reached ten o'clock at night, Xiao Ming saw the man supported by Liu Peipei, and the two walked out of the private room.

Clearly, the man was already somewhat drunk and insensible; yet, the more he was in that state, the more reassured Xiao Ming felt.

General Manager Xiao, they have already entered the Bin Guan lobby; now, they have already walked into the elevator.

Okay, if nothing unexpected happens, I believe they should soon go up to the rooms upstairs; I don't know whether this Liu Peipei can actually handle all of this.

General Manager Xiao, don't worry, there should be no problem; moreover, look at that man, he's drunk to the point of unconsciousness—I estimate that even if he wanted to do something bad, he couldn't pull it off; at the very least, he's incapable.

It would be best if that were the case; everything would go smoothly.

Xiao Ming nodded, he also felt that there shouldn't be too much danger.
