Chapter 27.7: A quiet life
Cen s.h.i.+ was quite taken aback today. Although he refuses to accept Zheng Xie but he is actually very timid. He prefers not to have meet him. But he is always destined to meet with Zheng Xie. Just like a few hours ago.
Cen s.h.i.+ was attending the annual meeting of the World Election Observation in a Grand Hotel. After the meeting, half-eaten the meal, he and another fellow member went up to the top floor viewing area to have a talk about something.
Ordinarily Zheng Xie has always been low-key with unpredictable whereabouts. It is difficult to meet him in person. However, as a result, in such a short time, Cen s.h.i.+ actually met him. He thinks that he should have bought lottery today.
What makes it worst, it is a female colleague. And it is also the one that He He mentioned, his ex-girlfriend. At the moment when Zheng Xie saw them, they were tugging back and forth. The aggressive woman whispered: “Cen s.h.i.+, you give me an explanation. What exactly do you want?”
Cen s.h.i.+ encountered her recently. And they have gotten involve again. So the woman’s feeling bloom again. But Cen s.h.i.+’s lukewarm att.i.tude causes her desperation.
The woman said chokingly: “You cannot do this to me.”
He cleared his throat, trying to persuade her with a few words. And then they heard someone say very politely: “Excuse me, please let me through.” They realized that they were blocking the door.
Cen s.h.i.+ apologies, drag the woman and step aside. Although there were no indecent scene earlier, it is also not a good sight for the guests. Strange as obviously there were no one else there earlier.
But, just the voice earlier, though it is a bit hoa.r.s.e, it is familiar.
When he looked up, he turned a little green. The guest whom asked him to step aside, although is pale but still the handsome Zheng Xie! Zheng Xie even say “Thank you” before leaving.
Where life does not meet……
Somewhat empty-handed, they went downstairs to the newly decorated famous area. Something caught He He’s eyes and she pulled Cen s.h.i.+’s sleeves and said: “Why not I gift you that s.h.i.+rt? I still owe you one from last time.”
A week ago, He He spilled a whole cup of coffee on Cen s.h.i.+’s s.h.i.+rt. Cen s.h.i.+ clenched his teeth while saying that it was his most expensive s.h.i.+rt.
Cen s.h.i.+ said: “You are taking a joke too seriously.” He glanced at the brand that He He was pointing at and said: “Girl, after all these years, you are really not simple. You know such a popular yet low-key brand? This brand just arrived into the country.”
“Quick pick one. Don’t be such a nagging person. I feel that I have never got you any gift.”
“When I become as important as your brother Zheng Xie, then you buy this brand s.h.i.+rt for me as gift is not too late. We buy another brand.”
“Forget it if you don’t want. Once past, it is gone.”
