Chapter 2 - I heard that you are Yao Yuanjing’s person? (1/2)
“I heard that you are Yao Yuanjing’s person?”
Ji Nai-tang was a little surprised when he heard Cen Muqi say that and looked at him. He didn’t admit it but he also didn’t refute it. A trace of regret flashed through Cen Muqi’s eyes: “Pity.”
It was a pity that he had such a rare appetite but couldn’t stay around for a long period of time. He had high standards and he rarely met people who made him interested. For so many years there were very few people around him. A few familiar friends were always teasing him that he was becoming more and more like a vegetarian monk. So it was really rare that he would take someone to the hotel like last night.
“Actually I…..” Ji Nai-tang hesitated to speak but before he could finish he heard a ringtone coming from the table. Cen Muqi got up and went to answer it. Although he didn’t speak much Ji Nai-tang could guess that it was probably something in the company.
After hanging up he turned to Ji Nai-tang and said: “It is raining heavily outside. Where do you live? I will have the driver take you back.”
The young master of the Ji family to have moved out of the family home when he just turned eighteen years old. So now he also didn’t know where he lived.
“No, I will just go back by myself.”
“Are you sure?”
Ji Nai-tang nodded timidly and Cen Muqi said nothing more. After changing his clothes, he put a check on the table and picked up the papers on the table and left the hotel room.
When the room was quiet, Ji Nai-tang got up and touched his coat. He took out a lollipop out of his suit coat, removed the wrapper and put it in his mouth. He lay back on the bed and quietly listened to the rainstorm outside the window and the look on his face was different from the previous one on his face just now.
Then the phone on the nightstand rang. He reached out slowly and took a look at it. It was Yao Yuanjing.
“Hello?”
“Are you still alive? What was going on last night? All you said was that your drink at the bar was drugged and then there was no news. If it had not been for the message telling me to leave it alone, I would have flown home last night.”
