Chapter 543 - Meeting Between Rivals (2/2)
On the other side.
After Qiao Yanze managed to get several shots into the holes, he turned towards a distracted Nan Zhi. He walked over to her, raising an eyebrow as he asked, “Don’t you know to shout when he entered the females’ changing room? Did he bully you or not?”
Nan Zhi pursed her lips slightly, noting the worry and nervousness on Qiao Yanze’s face. “He said that he would stop finding me.
Qiao Yanze hummed coldly, clenching his fists. “That’s good. If not, I will fight him again.”
Nan Zhi was alarmed, as disbelief appeared in her eyes. “When did you fight with him?”
Qiao Yanze realized that he had exposed himself, as he waved the golf club around in an attempt to change the topic. “Let’s stop talking about him, we should play golf instead.”
Nan Zhi chased up to Qiao Yanze. “Why did you fight with him?”
Qiao Yanze raised an eyebrow. “Does your heart ache for him?”
“No…”Nan Zhi recalled the sudden change in att.i.tude Mu Sihan had towards her in the past few days. She stopped walking, staring at Qiao Yanze blankly. “Did you tell him about me getting poisoned?”
Qiao Yanze shrugged. “I really can’t hide anything from you.”
Nan Zhi remained silent for a very long time.
Qiao Yanze rubbed the back of his head. “I was too angry then and wanted him to stop looking for you, so it just came out of my mouth. Did it cause any trouble for you?”
Nan Zhi bit her lip, her eyes looking into the distance. Her voice was soft. “It’s all in the past now.”
“That’s right. He has a wife and a child now. Why do you still care about him?”
Nan Zhi’s breathing tightened slightly. She looked down, controlling her emotions. “You also know that he has a child with Shangguan Wan?
Qiao Yanze glanced at Nan Zhi, “Could it be that you only found out today?”
Nan Zhi was speechless.
…
After they finished their game, Qiao Yanze wanted to leave with Nan Zhi. However, he met A Country’s amba.s.sador again when he was changing.
His father had had close ties with the amba.s.sador, and the latter insisted on dragging Qiao Yanze for a meal.
Mu Sihan had already booked a private room. When the amba.s.sador brought Qiao Yanze and Nan Zhi over, he and Shangguan Wan were already waiting in the room.
He had changed into a black s.h.i.+rt. He did not wear a tie, while the top three b.u.t.tons of his s.h.i.+rt were undone, revealing his s.e.xy, exquisite collarbones. When he saw Qiao Yanze and Nan Zhi enter the room, his eyes remained as calm as before. His lips pursed slightly, making his jawline look defined and perfect.
Nan Zhi wanted to leave by giving several excuses. However, that amba.s.sador treated her as Qiao Yanze’s girlfriend, and kept talking to her pa.s.sionately, so she could not leave even if she wanted to.
Halfway through the meal, Nan Zhi, who did not have much of an appet.i.te, got up to go to the washroom outside.
She turned on the tap and washed her face as she stood in front of the wash basin.
Hearing footsteps behind her, Nan Zhi looked up as she wiped away the water beads off her face.
Shangguan Wan entered the washroom.
She stood beside Nan Zhi, looking at Nan Zhi through the mirror.
Shangguan Wan’s eyes were not sharp, though Nan Zhi’s heart still thumped. Guilt surfaced in her heart unconsciously.
Could it be that Shangguan Wan found out that Mu Sihan was having an affair and found out about her?
Their eyes met through the mirror for nearly five seconds, when Shangguan Wan suddenly gasped in understanding. “Oh! It’s you!”
Nan Zhi’s heart almost jumped out of her throat in fear when she heard Shangguan Wan’s words.
She really knew her?
“Your Highness, actually…”
Shangguan Wan hurriedly waved her hands when she noticed Nan Zhi’s face was slightly paled like she had been scared. “You were that person that shouted that the police was there that day. Do you still remember? You saved me!”
