"Zhou Wang?"
Cheng Yiyi paused for a moment before she couldn’t stay seated any longer. She urgently asked, "Where is he?"
"Uh... just over there at that booth. I saw him when I walked by, but there were so many people around that I didn’t feel comfortable squeezing in to say hi..."
Though Song Rui didn’t know why Cheng Yiyi seemed so agitated, he honestly answered and pointed in the direction of booth V06.
Cheng Yiyi stood up to look, but in a nightclub environment like this, it was impossible to clearly see someone over ten meters away. She could only vaguely see the crowd of heads...
No, it should be said that there were lots of fair legs, with almost all of them being sexy girls wearing strap tops and short skirts.
If Song Rui hadn’t mentioned it, she wouldn’t have known that Zhou Wang was hidden among them.
"Song Rui, let me out!"
Cheng Yiyi instinctively wanted to find Zhou Wang and ask him why he was ignoring her.
Since getting off work, Cheng Yiyi had been frantically sending messages to Zhou Wang because she thought this was the perfect chance to take their relationship further.
Yet Cheng Yiyi began to doubt her life when Zhou Wang kept not responding.
Eventually, after Cheng Yiyi made several voice calls, Zhou Wang outright blocked her...
Yes, he blocked her.
When she saw the message, "Message sent, but rejected by the recipient," Cheng Yiyi’s eyes went black, and she nearly fainted on the spot. Fortunately, her colleague caught her in time.
She had such high self-esteem, yet she had already tried to cozy up to Zhou Wang, allowing him liberties no one else ever had, and still he wanted more!
But even though Cheng Yiyi was furious, there remained a sliver of something unspeakable inside her.
You must know that Song Rui waited for her at her hotel for over an hour, and only when Cheng Yiyi was sure Zhou Wang wouldn’t contact her did she come down to have dinner with Song Rui...
Later, when Song Rui’s friend from Hang City had a birthday and booked the famed BSK bar’s "King Card," Cheng Yiyi followed along to play and slowly forgot about the unpleasantness Zhou Wang caused her.
And now, suddenly hearing from Song Rui that Zhou Wang was right across from her, all those previous feelings surged back like a flood. Cheng Yiyi found herself unable to control herself for a moment.
"Yiyi, are you planning to..."
Song Rui asked confusedly.
Facing Song Rui’s puzzled gaze, Cheng Yiyi realized she lost her composure.
Song Rui didn’t know that she and Zhou Wang already knew each other; he even thought their meeting on the plane was the first time...
"I... it’s nothing."
Cheng Yiyi opened her mouth, but then thought better of it and sat back down.
She felt she couldn’t go on like this. Zhou Wang was indeed her ideal type, but there were plenty of men in the world. Why must it be Zhou Wang?
Cheng Yiyi, oh Cheng Yiyi, you’re not lacking, so is it necessary to be hung up on a mere Zhou Wang?
He’s already blocked you, and you still rush over to him. Isn’t that degrading yourself...
With this self-reflection, Cheng Yiyi felt much calmer and no longer as angry.
Come to think of it, Zhou Wang might be rich, but that’s just in Ming City. Initially, she hadn’t even planned to settle down in Ming City. Not to mention Magic City or Peng City, she would at least aim for a first-tier city like Hang City, right?
The more she thought, the more Cheng Yiyi realized she probably lost her head previously. She took the glass of Ace of Spades from Song Rui effortlessly and sipped it gracefully. Despite its sour taste, she looked quite content.
"This Zhou Wang is really something, to book a King Card at BSK so easily. It shows I truly underestimated him..."
Cheng Yiyi originally didn’t want to talk about Zhou Wang anymore, but Song Rui was still sighing about it.
When she heard what Song Rui said, Cheng Yiyi couldn’t help but ask, "You’re saying... he booked that booth? No way, he must be attending a friend’s gathering, right?"
Initially, Cheng Yiyi didn’t have any concept of such things until she attended Song Rui’s friend’s party that night and learned a bit.
According to the birthday boy from Hang City, whom Song Rui clearly wanted to woo, it wasn’t easy to book a BSK booth, especially one of the only five King Cards. It required not only money but also qualifications.
Song Rui had secretly told her something else: Brother Lin, whose birthday it was, actually had his birthday the day after tomorrow. But since the day after was a weekend and he couldn’t book a booth even a month in advance, he had no choice but to move the celebration up...
Cheng Yiyi found it quite absurd. This brother was noticeably wealthier than the rich guys she knew in Yangcheng. The drinks on this table alone were worth over hundreds of thousands, yet they had to advance the birthday because a booth couldn’t be booked?
So the question was, if booking a booth was this difficult for a Hang City local, how could an outsider like Zhou Wang manage it?
Thus, Cheng Yiyi instinctively thought Song Rui was speaking nonsense, assuming Zhou Wang was likely just attending a friend’s gathering to appear there...
"Nine out of ten chances it’s booked by him!"
Song Rui confidently said, "I deliberately checked earlier. Zhou Wang sat at the center spot, and there wasn’t a single other man beside him. Those girls were clearly part of the party ambience arranged, plus Zhou Wang surely has the capability..."
Cheng Yiyi was taken aback and asked strangely, "Why do you say that? Didn’t you just meet him today?"
"Yes, we just met today, but didn’t we come from the airport together? Oh, Yiyi, you have no idea about the welcome squad for Zhou Wang. It was all uniformly dressed in black suits as bodyguards, a good dozen, all bowing for Zhou Wang, and an unbelievably beautiful woman, uh..."
