Chapter 151 - A Bad Day (1/2)
For a moment Yue Ling froze from fear, but that flash of fear was soon gone. If Song Jia would have even blinked at that moment, she might have missed that quick change of expression. But luckily she was staring at her face while speaking so she noticed it clearly.
”To reveal something, you need to know something relevant enough, step-daughter. And unfortunately, there is nothing you can know about me because there is nothing to know.” Yue Ling then decided to leave. She gracefully picked up her purse and walked a few steps when Song Jia stopped her. ”What about your Iced tea? Have some before you go or you might burn black from anger.”
”Don't bother about me but yourself. Because I will surely get back to you for trying to turn my brother against me.” Yue Ling threatened her openly.
”Bite me.” Song Jia winked and then turned around to finish her dessert before leaving. Yue Ling, on the other hand, stomped her foot angrily and came back to the table.
She slapped her hands on the table and leaned forward to look in Song Jia's eyes. ”Listen to me, no matter how hard you try, you will never be able to drive a wedge between me and my brother. He is MY brother and I will convince him to forgive me. All your efforts will go to waste. Trust me when I say this, you will payback manifolds for this mistake because I hate people who go against me.”
She was barking because she was scared, and more then Song Jia, she was convincing herself that things would not go crumbling down south. After threatening Song Jia unsuccessfully she headed out.
There was no way she would forget what happened today. Song Jia spoiled all her hard work. All the efforts she has put to bring her plans in action with him would get spoiled if Yue Min decided to stop supporting her. She kept pondering over today's incident and cursing Song Jia when her phone rang suddenly.
Her heart palpitated when she saw the caller ID, it was him. She wanted to ignore the call, but she knew he will know everything now or later. There was no point in hiding anything now.
After drawing in a long breath, she answered the call as she went to the road to flag down a cab for herself. It had been a bad day for her. While she was coming to meet Song Jia, her car broke down on the way, forcing her to come here in a cab. Then Song Jia exposed her lie in front of her brother. And now this man was calling her. She loved his company when he was in a jolly mood, but hated, rather feared his anger when things didn't go his way.
”Turn left and start walking straight in the alley. I am waiting.” Before Yue Ling could speak, the call was disconnected. She nervously looked around and spotted a shining black Bugatti parked on the far end of the empty alley. She didn't want to go because this man was scary when he got angry.
With heavy steps, she went in the direction she was told. The alley was empty because the buildings nearby had caught fire recently, making the place deserted. She reached the car parked in the silent alley and climbed inside to sit on the shotgun seat.
*Cough* The car was filled with the smell of tobacco and smoke emitting from the man's cigarette he has just put off, making her cough.
He was a middle-aged man with sharp features and smooth wrinkle-free skin. He had golden brown hair, which didn't quite match his age.
When Yue Ling climbed in, he didn't even turn his head to look at her and remained leaning against his seat with his eyes closed.
Yue Ling waited for some time for him to open his eyes or say something, which he didn't do. After about fifteen minutes, when he showed no signs of talking or speaking, she removed her overcoat and threw it on the rear seat because the blower in the car made her feel hot. She then pulled out her phone to browse her we chat, and started texting her girlfriends.
”Crap!” She didn't even realize when she was suddenly pulled towards her side by a strong palm and yelped out of surprise.
”What are yo- mmph” A pair of cold lips crashed on her tender ones and her hands were locked behind her back with a big single palm of the man.
