Hello, Heir

Dazhuang kept a watchful eye on Zhuang Nainai for the whole trip, fearing that she might do something crazy again.

This action was misunderstood by Zhuang Nainai again.

She figured that Dazhuang had probably seen how Si Zhengting deserted her just before and was mocking her right now.

She could not let that slide! Zhuang Nainai cleared her throat and said casually, “Dazhuang!”

Dazhuang instantly tensed, keeping his guard up and staying on high alert. “Madam…”

Zhuang Nainai smiled at him and continued, “Let me tell you a joke. There was once a married couple who went grocery shopping on a scooter. On the way back, there was a steep upslope, so the husband asked his wife to get down and walk up the slope before getting on the scooter again. But guess what?”

“What?” Dazhuang humored her.

“When the wife got up the slope and was not yet seated on the scooter, the husband drove away! He thought his wife had gotten on, but he only realized that he’d lost his wife when he got home! The wife jogged back home panting and made him kneel on the washboard for an entire week! Hahahahahaha…”

Zhuang Nainai ended her story laughing.

Huang Dazhuang did not find it funny.

Zhuang Nainai continued between laughter, “Therefore, tell me, how should I punish Sir for forgetting about me just now?”

Zhuang Nainai gave a cold snort. “Let me tell you, I will not let him off easy this time, just watch!”

Zhuang Nainai was lucky, the traffic condition was not too bad and she reached the building at 8:50 am. Huang Dazhuang was beyond grateful at having made it to the destination.

Zhuang Nainai did not notice his relief and arrived at the 18th floor in the lift. She punched her work card and looked at the time. It was 9 o’clock sharp!

She was not late!

She was just feeling lucky when she heard Zhang Chaowen’s irksome voice. “Zhuang Nainai, coming in at 9 am sharp, is that what your work attitude should be?”

Zhuang Nainai was speechless.

Zhang Chaowen spoke again before she could rebut. “Bring coffee to my office.”

He then walked right past her without giving her a chance to refuse.

Zhuang Nainai was speechless.

She cursed Zhang Chaowen under her breath and walked to the pantry. Upon entering, she could hear two people chatting.

One of them was Zhang Tingting, the girl whom she had poured coffee on previously.

Zhang Tingting said, “Ms. Zuo is supposed to be here for the dress fitting at 9 am, but she’s still not here!”

The other employee replied, “She’s a big shot, get used to it.”

Zhang Tingting complained, “But I have a meeting at 10 am! I called her, and she asked me to keep waiting! That tone of hers, it was as if she were a queen!”

“Haha, well, she’s pretty like a queen in our company. For all these years, Mr. Si has had only one female companion. Her.”

Zhang Tingting continued curiously, “Regarding this, isn’t it strange? It made sense in the past for Mr. Si to bring her, but wasn’t there news of his upcoming marriage? The 100th-year-anniversary celebration is such a grand occasion, why doesn’t he bring his fiancee?”
