Chapter 708: Hu Zi’s Whereabouts! (8)
Si Zhengting lifted the blanket and climbed down from the bed, switching on the room lights along the way. Thereafter, he approached Zhuang Nainai speedily and held her arm. “If you thought of sothing, you should have told . You gave a shock when you suddenly jumped out of bed.”
After hearing this, she stopped rummaging through the bag and looked up at Si Zhengting, who was staring at her. There was a tinge of warmth in his cold and bright gaze. She just realized that Si Zhengting... had thought that she was going to give birth.
Zhuang Nainai pursed her lips and smiled. “I just had a dream. I suddenly rembered that I have taken a taxi last ti and the taxi driver has told about Hu Zi. At that ti, I did not want a receipt, but he still issued it to .”
While she was explaining, she continued rummaging through her bag. “It has been such a long ti. Could I have thrown the small receipt away?”
As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes lit up. “Found it!”
After saying this, she took out the receipt with twinkling eyes. “We probably can find the driver through this receipt. Once we find the driver, we can find Hu Zi through him!”
With him seeing Zhuang Nainai like this, Si Zhengting’s lips curled up and he took the receipt from her. “I will go look for him tomorrow.”
Then, he put his arm around her shoulders. “Quick, go back to sleep. If you don’t, the babies might not get sufficient rest either.”
When Zhuang Nainai heard the first part of the sentence, she had wanted to rebut him. However, upon hearing the latter part of the sentence, she let him escort her to bed obediently. She had thought that she surely would have trouble falling asleep, but she was wrapped in his embrace and the sll of him wafted in the air. Hence, she actually managed to close her eyes and drift off to sleep quickly.
The next day, Zhuang Nainai and Si Zhengting had set off to find the driver in the early morning after having their breakfast.
They found the car plate number of the taxi through the receipt. Soon, they found the driver as well. When Zhuang Nainai saw the driver at the terminal, she was rather agitated.
She stepped forward, planning to shake hands with the driver. “Driver!”
However, Si Zhengting grabbed her wrist. When she looked back, she saw Si Zhengting step forward. Then, he held her hand and looked at the driver. “Hello.”
Zhuang Nainai: “...”
This small detail and Si Zhengting’s pettiness cause her to feel extrely blissful. However, it was not the ti to bother about these things. She looked at the driver anxiously. “Driver, do you still rember ?”
Staring at Zhuang Nainai with a puzzled gaze, the driver shook his head.
Zhuang Nainai asked straight away. “I’m looking for Hu Zi. Driver, can you tell where he is?”
Instantly, the driver’s gaze beca more alert. “I don’t know Hu Zi. You guys have found the wrong person.”
Zhuang Nainai drowned. “Driver, don’t get wrong. I’m not seeking revenge on him. Do you rember that you told Hu Zi run over a person last ti and went to jail for seven years? I am the daughter of the woman who got hit. I’m looking for Hu Zi because I want to know who instructed him to do this deed back then.”
The taxi driver did not believe her. “Sorry, I really don’t know who Hu Zi is. I’m not interested in your story as well.”
Currently, Hu Zi was in a state of danger, so the taxi driver did not believe anyone.
Zhuang Nainai was very antsy. “I’m really not trying to look for trouble. I...”
“You aren’t interested in our story, but I bet you will be interested to know who I am,” Si Zhengting interrupted suddenly.
Taken aback, the driver turned and looked at Si Zhengting. Intimidated by his imposing aura, he did not dare to utter a word suddenly.
