Chapter 17 - How to ask a favor? (1/2)
The moment Xiong Zhi entered the car, she quickly took out her notes and wrote continuously.
Pages turned, a serious and focused expression of his young miss, the driver waited blankly.
'What happened to their young miss? She wrote like mad. Is she upset?'
After a while, Xiong Zhi closed her small notebook and placed it in her jacket's pocket. Then she stared blankly in the air.
The driver waited anxiously.
The truth was Xiong Zhi was thinking and lading out her plan.
The driver could not hold anymore.
”Young miss Zhi, where are we going next?”
Xiong Zhi snapped out of her thoughts.
”Home.”
”....” The driver did not expected that.
'Hahaha right, where did I expect young miss want to go in this late?'
The driver bitterly scolded his self.
Xiong Zhi bit her lips. She was thinking a big HOW in her head.
After a while she called out to the driver.
”Mr. What is your name?” Xiong Zhi said with a serious expression.
The driver gulped. Did his young miss wanted to shut him up about today's matters?
”I-I a-am...my name is Ji Yu.” The driver nervously said.
”Mr. Ji, can I ask you something?” Xiong Zhi voice become grim.
The driver speed up, he wanted to go home! He won't pry to his young miss business anymore or made any guesses.
”Can I? ” Xiong Zhi asked again. Her face was dark.
The driver was really scared. Did he offend his young miss? Tell me how and when, author!
(A/N: I also don't know.)
Having pressured. The driver muttered 'yes'.
Xiong Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. She was not sure if it was OK to ask something personal to someone you did not know.
”I--how did you ask a favor from someone ?” Xiong Zhi started.
The driver who were sweating stared at Xiong Zhi dumfounded.
'That...that is ...she wanted to ask?! She got me nervous for nothing!'
The driver found himself and focused on driving while answering.
” It depends who you want to ask a favor from, young miss.” The driver started.
”Can you please elaborate?” Xiong Zhi leaned forward to the driver seat to hear the driver clearly. The opening statement of Mr. Ji was very true. It seemed like Xiong Zhi would learn a lot today.
Seeing his young miss eagerly wanted to hear whatever he would say, Mr. Ji felt like he was a teacher teaching a very important subject to his student, and that student was his young miss!
He cleared his throat and focused his eyes at the road, with a very serious tone he said,
” As I said it depends on who you are going to ask. Are you close to the person you're going to ask a favor from?”
Xiong Zhi thought about it.
”I don't think so. We just talked once.”
”Is the talked good or not?”
Remembering his talked with her,
”I don't know, we both don't compromise.”
”So it may be not a good impression. It was like a situation when I ask a favor to one of my seniors.”
Xiong Zhi nodded her understanding.
” There are two ways to ask a favor effectively.” His hand was in air making a peace sign.
”First, you need to praise him/her. You have to tell his/her good points. Especially their appearances.”
Xiong Zhi tilted her head. She could not understand the connection of praising someone to a favor.
There are different matter right?
The driver glanced at Xiong Zhi in the mirror. He seemed to know what Xiong Zhi was thinking so he added.
”Like for example---” he cleared his throat.
” 'Senior, you're very handsome today! What brand you're wearing ? I like to buy too! I really admire you senior. You're such a genius in fashion! Can I become your fan? Ah, senior this fan of yours really really respect you, that's why I'm a little shameful to ask you a favor, but you are the only capable and the only one that is unmatchable senior. Can you please kindly lend me your beautiful hand for a moment? ' That's how I usually asked a favor from my seniors and so far, it's all effective.” The driver said proudly.
