Chapter 163: Chapter 164: Delivering Soup (4)
Translator: 549690339 |
In fact, if it hadn’t been for their previous encounter, where she ended up losing thirty thousand yuan because of her, Lu Weixi wouldn’t have been so impressed by Liu Yiyi. But the fact was that she recognized Liu Yiyi the moment she looked down and walked out.
As Lu Weixi glanced at Liu Yiyi, her steps momentarily faltered. Lu Weixi was already standing behind the crowd, as there were many people disembarking and coming to pick up passengers. Her hesitation was instantly obscured by the rush of departing individuals. Qin Zhiyou, surrounded by a swarm of people, wasn’t aware of her presence at all and proceeded directly towards the parking lot.
Lu Weixi cast a glance at Qin Zhiyou and Liu Yiyi’s receding figures, a cold smirk tugging at the corner of her lips.
With a wave of her hand, she threw the thermos and the soup inside into the garbage bin.
Then, she turned and walked in another direction.
The taxi stand where she was waiting happened to be just across the street from the parking lot. From her vantage point, she could clearly see Qin Zhiyou and Liu Yiyi meeting up in the parking lot, just as she had anticipated.
Of course, the two just had a brief conversation without any intimate gestures. Afterwards, they each went their separate ways, one in a Mercedes, the other in a chauffeured car, heading in opposite directions. If Lu Weixi didn’t know them personally, she might easily have mistaken them for casual friends or colleagues, certainly not intimates.
As she was quietly standing in the queue for taxies, she received a text message. Looking down, she saw it was from Huang Caiwei: “That’s great. I didn’t think Mr. Wei would be occupied next week, he has to negotiate business with Mr. Liao and might even go on a cruise.”
Reading the key terms ‘Mr. Liao’ and ‘Cruise’, Lu Weixi’s heart stirred. Immediately, she texted back, asking, “Are you talking about Mr. Liao from the Siyi Company and the upcoming maiden voyage of the Hanhai Group’s cruise?” Huang Caiwei replied promptly: “Yes, are you invited too? Will you join us?”
A hint of a bitter smile appeared at the corners of Lu Weixi’s mouth. She hadn’t had this kind of feeling even when she saw Qin Zhiyou and Liu Yiyi. But at this moment, she couldn’t help but give a helpless smile.
If she had known earlier that Mr. Liao would also be participating in this maiden voyage event, she would have done everything she could to secure an opportunity to board the ship with Qin Zhiyou during their meeting at the Qin’s mansion.
Now it seemed that Qin Zhiyou and Liu Yiyi’s affection was deep, and they had learned to keep a low profile. It was clear that they were planning for a long-term relationship. The reason they didn’t disclose it was probably due to the pressure from Mr. Qin and Yang Mogui. Secondly, Qin Zhiyou was probably afraid that Liu Yiyi, only recently recovering, couldn’t withstand any rumors or gossip at this stage.
Perhaps Liu Yiyi would also have a ticket for this maiden voyage.
Just as she was deep in thought, it was her turn in the taxi queue. Upon boarding the taxi, the driver asked her, “Where to?”
Without thinking, Lu Weixi blurted out, “West Mountain…no, let’s go to Yuechun Apartments.”
Yuechun Apartments was where Xue Feifei lived. Xue Feifei was held under detention; she wasn’t allowed to go out freely except for the schedule arranged by the company. Nevertheless, it was no big deal; though Xue Feifei couldn’t come out, Lu Weixi could still go visit her.
Last time, didn’t Xue Feifei say she could get a scalped ticket for the maiden voyage? Lu Weixi was determined to get her hands on it!
