Chapter 137 - Step 3 (1/2)

Lu Yin Ze watched the three people walking out of his mansion from the window.

He just went out of the bathroom after Xiong Zhi left.

He could not face them. He was still ashamed of himself. They left after telling him that they would be waiting in school next week.

Lu Yin Ze remembered Xiong Zhi's last words.

'...be proud of yourself since you went against in your original fate..'

”Original fate..” Lu Yin Ze muttered to himself.

'What was even his original fate? What's there to be proud of?'

Lu Yin Ze spent his weekend mulling to Xiong Zhi's words that day.

Song Xuantin kept bugging Xiong Zhi in the car.

”Did he say anything to you? Did he promise to come back next week?”

”No.”

”He did not say anything?”

”Nothing.”

”What. Oh my. What we should do? Let's visit him again tomorrow!” Song Xuantin exclaimed.

”I think...let's give him some time. He will be annoyed if we visit tomorrow. Remember, we just destroyed his door.” Gu Zhen said.

Xiong Zhi nodded.

”Let's visit him again after some time.” Xiong Zhi said. Besides, Xiong Zhi believed that Lu Yin Ze would overcome this. She doesn't know where this confidence came from. But she had an inkling feeling that they would meet Lu Yin Ze next week.

Xiong Zhi thought of the box. It seems that it would take a long time before she could give it to Lu Yin Ze.

'Ring.'

Xiong Zhi answer the phone call.

”Boss! He is here! Where are you?” Mu Fian voice sounded on the other line. He sounded really excited.

”Alright. I'm on my way.” Xiong Zhi dropped the call and told the driver to stop. Behind them was the car that Mr. Ji drives.

”Are you going out now?” Song Xuantin asked. Xiong Zhi already told them that she would have some business after their visit to Lu Yin Ze.

”Yeah. See you on Monday.” Xiong Zhi opened the door.

”Alright. Take care!” Song Xuantin waved at her and watched her as she transferred to another car.

”Xiong Zhi is so busy this week. I wonder what is she so busy about?” Song Xuantin mutter to herself.

Gu Zhen just watched the car as it went far away. It seems like Xiong Zhi was working hard for her company. Since his contractor was working hard to boost her own company, Gu Zhen got influenced and was full of fighting spirit as well.

”Well, she is a busy person. We are also busy. We are almost done.” Gu Zhen said with excitement in his voice.

”Yeah! You're right! You say we will go to your office?” Song Xuantin was equally excited. She was a busy woman too.

”It's not really my office. But I have my own personal room given by my contractor. We will try it there.”

”Yosh! Let's go! Mr. Driver, to Gu Zhen's office!” Song Xuantin said with full of spirit. They would finally visit Gu Zhen's office. She felt like she took one step closer to Gu Zhen.

Gu Zhen told the address. The car drives smoothly to its destination.

Mr. Ji parked the car in the underground parking. He looked at the review mirror.

”Young miss, do you want me to accompany you inside?” Mr. Ji said worriedly.

”It's alright. I have my own company.” She went out and a worker from the hotel came out to greet her and guide her upwards.

Mr. Ji watched his young miss until Xiong Zhi reached the elevator.

The reason why he was worried was not because of the security of the hotel. The hotel has tight security since this one of the hotels solely build for the upper-class persons of society. However, because of that reason, all the people here were businessmen who was on their appointment to someone on the same status or higher.

His young miss was a minor without any escort or guards. The status of her being the young miss of Xiong made it more difficult for her to be alone. What if people recognized her and forcedly invite her to their table for the purpose to connect with the Xiong empire? Mr. Ji was really worried.

Xiong Zhi arrived in the lobby.

”Ma'am, do you have an appointment or reservation?” The worker beside her asked.

”Yes. Table 8.”

The young worker leads her and told her about the places she could visit.

Xiong Zhi looked around. This lobby has a massive space. The tables were far away from each other and there's no need to worry for other people eavesdropping them. This is the second floor. The first floor was a high-class bar.
