Chapter 21.3: A Sudden Big Change (平地一声雷)
Their temporary location is very good. They just sat down and Zheng Xie is already able to locate the person that he is looking for.
Flickering lights flickers, Xiao He He is neither too close nor too far from him. This does not prevent him from checking out her behavior.
Xiao He He is softly leaning back on a sofa that is placed against the wall. Her legs casually moving along with the song. She looked embedded into the sofa with a lazy yet charming att.i.tude.
Where she is sitting is an extremely secluded place. But there is a weak light reflecting her face. She performed in the stands looking a little tranced. One hand is on the tall gla.s.s while the other hand that is resting on her leg is wrapped around a cigarette.
She occasionally take a deep breathe, and with extreme skill, spit out smoke ring. Then, she looked at the smoke rings slowly dissipated, just as if she is completely appreciating her own work.
In fact, Xiao He He is not willing to come to this kind of place alone and she does not have such courage to not answer Zheng Xie’s call nor even outright shutting it off. At that time, it was too noisy around her, so she could not hear the ringing. When Zheng Xie called back again, the phone runs out of battery.
That night after work, she did not go back immediately. Instead she remain in the company to work on a piece of work that is almost done. Another two colleagues are also working overtime.
In the independent gla.s.s office, her lady boss is pacing angrily on the phone. She raised her eyebrows in an angry bristle. She made a phone call and then throw the phone against the wall.
They carefully pretend to continue to work outside of her office.
After just three minutes, the lady boss’s angry has subsided. Snugly standing at the door while laughing, she asked: “Today this old lady is treating. Who wants to accompany me?”
The two men, one person need to go home to look after children while the other person need to cook for his girlfriend. Both made a haste escape.
Xiao He He thought for a moment and before she could come up with the right reason, the boss ‘kidnapped’ her.
Originally, Chao Boss wants to drive. But as she is struggling to reverse, she reversed the car into the wall and caused a large damage to the rear of the car. The boss said: “妈的, today really is a bad day…. We will take the cab and go.”
妈的 (pin ying: Mā de) – this is a Chinese curse word that is very commonly heard. It actually sounded like ‘mother’ which indirectly cursing the other party’s mother. NOTE: Do try to avoid using this curse word
