Chapter 143 Searching for a new house (2/2)
Mei Li glanced and saw Ryn already turning her attention outside.
”Ryn?”
”I haven't told them,” Ryn spoke slowly.
Mei Li's brows lifted up high to her hairline. Ryn did not tell the siblings about her plan? Was she crazy?
”You haven't?”
”Hmm...”
”Are you going to tell them?”
”Maybe... Once I've found a place,” Ryn's reply was short but Mei Li could see how unwilling Ryn was talking about this topic.
Mei Li could only shake her head in disbelief, but she respected Ryn's privacy.
It took them quite some times to reach the first house. It was a semi-detach house with quite a small lawn outside. Ryn already had a bad feeling about this. Where was the safety aspect? It looked exactly like her home right now.
Despite her uneasiness, she still followed Mei Li into the house and greeted the woman who introduced herself as Sugar. Sugar would be showing them properties that might interest Ryn.
Sugar only recognized Ryn from watching the news. She was at first taken back seeing how tall Ryn was but the scratches and the scars still on Ryn's face and hands made her feel pity for this young woman. How did she feel during the kidnapping attempt?
She must be so scared and traumatic until she wanted to move away from the house she was living in.
”I hope the houses you want to show us has better safety measurement,” Ryn suddenly said as they walked around the house.
Sugar gulped. She thought this house could be the one for the supermodel. It was huge with a lawn and big rooms upstairs. Even the kitchen has a huge island counter. At the back, there was a small space for a little bit of gardening or anything.
”Erm... if that is what your requirement is, the other four is either apartments and condominiums,” Sugar said carefully.
”Let's go there,” Mei Li decided. She could see clearly how Ryn dislike this place.
”Okay...” Sugar immediately gave up on this house and quickly handed a piece of paper detailing the houses she selected to show today. The paper included the address, the price, and size and everything important to inform the prospective clients.
Ryn entered Mei Li's car and they followed behind Sugar's small car, heading to the second house.
Ryn kept quiet the whole time. It was even awkward for Mei Li even though she was supposed to be used with Ryn's quietness.
”I can't take it anymore,” Mei Li suddenly cried.
Ryn looked at Mei Li in puzzled.
”Why... why the sudden move-out? You don't seem to have a problem staying at the mansion recuperating. You can return back to your home once you are ready? Why the sudden decision?”
Ryn kept quiet.
”Ryn, honestly I think you're making a huge mistake. Your emotion is unstable right now. You're making hasty decision because of your emotion. You need more time to think over this,” Mei Li coaxed.
Ryn crossed her arms and pondered over it. It took her exactly a minute before she looked at Mei Li, ”I still want to move out. I've thought about this the whole night.”
”But... but...”
”By the way, Mei Li, you are only my manager, managing my work. Your job doesn't include managing my life,” Ryn reminded coldly.
Mei Li gulped. It was hard for Ryn to get angry at her. Uh oh...
”Right now I am asking you to accompany me. But if you think we are not friends, you can stop right here and I will ride the agent's car.”
Mei Li gasped.
”No... no... no... I didn't mean that. Don't misunderstand me, Ryn. I am just worried about you. You're still hurt from the experience and I don't want you to regret your decision,” Mei Li explained.
”If you still want to help me, don't talk about this matter again,” Ryn warned, before adding, ”It seems like we have arrived.”
Mei Li looked around and realized Ryn was right. She did not even care where she was driving when she was talking with Ryn just now. She automatically followed behind the turtle-like Sugar who drove quite slow. It was easy for her to catch up with Sugar with how slow Sugar was driving. Sugar must have a lot of experience leading when driving.
Mei Li quickly looked for an empty spot to park after she handed her driving licence to the security guard. Then she, along with Ryn, followed Sugar to the elevator.
It was time to check out the second house.
