At the very least, she had a place in Zhai Sheng’s heart. Moreover, he was more decisive and determined than the Uncle Zhai in the past. She had decided. She would temporarily forgo her dignity as a woman and let Brother Zhai understand her love for him thoroughly. She would not let any other woman take advantage of the available opportunity and come in between them.

Qiu Chenxi was as shy as a newly married wife. She bowed her head coyly as she waited for Zhai Sheng to approach her.

Contrary to her wish, Zhai Sheng looked like he had forgotten about Qiu Chenxi’s existence. When he came out from the guardhouse, he headed toward his car directly.

Zhai Sheng’s legs were long, his strides wide. Moreover, with the style of a military man, his walking speed was fast.

Just as Qiu Chenxi was blinking his eyes and trying to figure out how Zhai Sheng had walked past her without even a greeting, Zhai Sheng had already got into his car and locked the doors. He also started the engine.

Seeing that Zhai Sheng’s car was leaving soon, Qiu Chenxi was anxious. She gave it a chase, leaving her luggage behind. “Brother Zhai, aren’t you going to send me home?”

Why did Brother Zhai lock the car doors before she could even get into it?

Zhai Sheng scrolled down the car windows. “Don’t worry. I have helped you make a call. There will be a car coming to send you back soon. I’ve something on and have to leave first.”

After leaving these words, Zhai Sheng did not have any more reservation this time. He stepped on the accelerator and left without giving Qiu Chenxi any further chance to say anything.

“Brother Zhai, Brother Zhai…” Of course, Qiu Chenxi’s two legs could not catch up with that four-wheeled vehicle of Zhai Sheng. She could only watch as Zhai Sheng left in a wink, helplessly taking in a mouthful of exhaust gas.

When Qiu Chenxi saw that the car Zhai Sheng mentioned would send her home was actually a vehicle for material procurement, her entire face turned pale.

Throughout the whole journey back home, Qiu Chenxi did not utter a single sound.

When she alighted, she did not greet the driver as well. Her face was black as she slammed and closed the vehicle’s door. She then stomped home in fury.

Qiu Chenxi did not feel good. Moreover, Qi Minlan posed a question that made her feel very embarra.s.sed and furious.

“How could Zhai Sheng do that?!” Qi Minlan sat up properly. “He just left like that?” And left Chen Xi in the lurch?

“Otherwise?” Tears welled up in Qiu Chenxi’s eyes. “Mom, initially, I thought Brother Zhai asked me to wait at the guardhouse so that I wouldn’t be under the sun and had the fan cool me down, letting me rest for a while. On hindsight, Brother Zhai was clearly afraid that I would sneak into his car and refused to come down. So, he was actually guarding against me!”

She actually deluded herself by taking Zhai Sheng’s coldness and guarding toward her as his gentleness and thoughtfulness. When she dawned upon this realization, Qiu Chenxi did not cry and endured the pain in her heart.

Now that she had arrived home and was facing her mother, Qi Minlan, Qiu Chenxi simply cried out loudly. “Mom, how could Brother Zhai do that? No matter what, I’m his childhood friend. We’ve known each other for such a long time. Were all those times we spent unreal? Just because that woman appeared, Brother Zhai distanced himself from me. He even completely denied the relations.h.i.+p between us over all these years? Mom, is it because Brother Zhai doesn’t like me at all?”

Otherwise, why would Brother Zhai behave to this extent today?

He was too much!
