Chapter 170: So Very Ugly (10)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As City A wasn’t too far away, Ling Tianya and Zhang Ke decided to take the high-speed rail. On the train, Ling Tianya was a bit frustrated, and she kept checking her phone. Ruan Zeyan still hadn’t contacted her.

Usually, by that time every day, Ruan Zeyan would at the very least give her a call. That day, there wasn’t as much as a peep from the man. Looks like he really was angry at her.

Ling Tianya suddenly had a horrifying revelation. Since when did she start getting used to Ruan Zeyan’s presence around her?

Right then, Ling Tianya’s phone suddenly rang, and she picked it up without even looking at the caller ID. It wasn’t Ruan Zeyan’s voice that came through the line, but instead a woman’s.

“Good morning Miss Ling, I am Mr. Ruan’s head secretary, Christine.”

Ling Tianya remembered then that Ruan Zeyan had told her last night that he would be overseas for a week, and his secretary Christine would contact him, and she could ask Christine for any help if needed.

Through the line, Christine continued, “Mr. Ruan instructed me that you would usually be awake at this time, so he had requested for me to give you a call.”

Ling Tianya’s heart fluttered a little at her explanations. “Where’s Ruan Zeyan?”

“Mr. Ruan has taken a twilight flight, so he has left some time ago.” Christine paused for a moment. “During the duration of Mr. Ruan’s absence, you can contact me should you require any assistance, Miss Ling. I will accomplish what is required of me.”

“Alright, thank you.”

At the end of the call with Christine, Ling Tianya’s anxiousness and frustrations calmed down as well.

Seeing Ling Tianya’s mood visibly turn for the better, Zhang Ke snickered. “Miss Ling, can I talk now?”

Ling Tianya side eyed her. “Since when do I not allow you to talk?”

Zhang Ke pouted her lips, “Your face was screaming at me to keep my mouth shut.”

With Ling Tianya’s improvement in mood, she decided to not harp at Zhang Ke about it. “Did you book the hotel?”

“Yes, I booked one according to your requirements.” Zhang Ke took out her phone to refresh Weibo. “Miss Ling, Guan Meiyi is trending again today.”

Ling Tianya looked out the window, casually asking, “Oh? What happened?”

Zhang Ke chuckled. “Two things happened, actually. The first one was Guan Meiyi being careless on the road, tail-gaiting the car before her and crashing into it. Now she has to pay full compensation for the damages. The second one was Guan Meiyi’s mother actually picking a fight with the spectators without a care for her image...Tsk, what a lively bunch.”

Dozens of videos had started to circulate showing Ling Qi getting tangled together with the spectators in a fight, it was definitely the most exciting thing to watch in a long while.

“Look, Miss Ling!” Zhang Ke excitedly brought her phone before Ling Tianya’s eyes, but all Ling Tianya did was to give it a peek before turning away again as though looking at it for another second more would taint her eyes forever. She gently reminded Zhang Ke, “Don’t get too invested in these petty things, lest Karma strikes.”

“‘Okay.” Obediently, Zhang Ke put her phone away with her mocking, excited smile.

The hotel that Zhang Ke had gotten was near a scenic area in A City. Their trip to A City was to look in their scenic areas as well to gather some information.

The two of them dragged their luggage behind them, heading to the reception for their check-in. Two people, two rooms.

They waited for the elevator after they had received their room card keys.

Zhang Ke suddenly pulled on Ling Tianya’s sleeve, lowly whispering to her, “Miss Ling, why do I have a feeling that someone’s following us?”

Ling Tianya turned back, and indeed a flash of someone’s silhouette appeared, but was no longer there when she tried to take a closer look. She turned back then, shaking her head. “There’s nothing, let’s go, the elevator’s here.”

“Okay...” Zhang Ke still couldn’t help but take one more look behind her, before following Ling Tianya’s footsteps into the elevator, traveling up.

Right then, the other elevator’s door opened as well. Li Chenfeng rushed into it, his phone still clutched tightly in his hand. “Ling Tianya has entered the lift, they did not notice me. What should I do next?”
