Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation
Rong Tianshi stord out of the hospital and imdiately ordered his driver to head for Clearcreek Mansion. He had a score to settle with Rong Qi. However, as he arrived at the entrance of Clearcreek Mansion, the security guards inford him that Rong Qi was not ho.
Frustrated, Rong Tianshi clenched his fists and asked, “Where is she now?”
The guard sized Rong Tianshi up before answering with a stern expression, “I’m sorry, but I can’t disclose Madam’s whereabouts.”
With a scoff, Rong Tianshi turned around to leave.
“Mr. Rong, it’s nearly 8:30 now, and the Serene Garden auction will start promptly at nine. Shall we head there?” The driver turned his head to ask when Rong Tianshi got back into the car.
Originally, Rong Tianshi was supposed to be on a business trip for a few more days, but he heard of the upcoming auction at Serene Garden. Seeing an opportunity, he thought he might find a financial backer for the struggling Rong Holdings.
Rong Tianshi checked his watch, frowning. “Straight to Serene Garden,” he commanded in a low voice.
If it weren’t for the desperate circumstances, Rong Tianshi wouldn’t be so stressed out. Holding a significant share in Rong Holdings, one shareholder was squeezing him dry while the other was conveniently absent. He was running out of options.
Outside Serene Garden, Rong Qi and Ye Nanshen got out of their car and stood at the entrance.
Wearing sunglasses at this early hour was sowhat odd, but Rong Qi had no choice. She glanced at her reluctant companion and said, “I’ll have soone take you to a place inside Serene Garden where you can rest. Wait for there.”
Underneath his sunglasses, Ye Nanshen’s expression tightened; his pale skin seed even more so through the dark lens.
“Why can’t I go in with you, Rong Rong?” Ye Nanshen questioned with a hint of irritation in his voice.
“There will be a lot of people at the auction, so of whom may recognize you. It’s better to be cautious,” Rong Qi explained.
“Alright, then. Be careful on the steps, Rong Rong. I’ll wait for you inside,” Ye Nanshen reluctantly said before giving her hair a gentle pat and turning away.
Zhuang Ling, who had been forced to wear a mask, scampered after him. “Master Shen, wait for , it’s this way! Our reserved room isn’t in that direction.”
“Madam, shall we also proceed?” Xu Yi approached Rong Qi, wearing a mask and nervously rubbing his scorched hair.
Rong Qi nodded, “Find yourself a place to rest as well. Nothing will happen in Serene Garden.”
Now, Rong Qi finally understood why Xu Yi, who had a low IQ and didn’t speak properly, could beco Ye Nanshen’s right-hand man.
Xu Yi didn’t disappoint anyone with his cool-headedness and judgnt during yesterday’s fire hazard. Now, Rong Qi understood why such a seemingly careless man could beco Ye Nanshen’s trusted aide.
Xu Yi glanced at his burnt hair and said, “In that case, I’ll go to a barber and get a haircut.”
“Alright.”
Before leaving, Xu Yi gave Rong Qi a wink and said, “But, Madam, don’t forget to call before the auction ends. I have to be here before Master Shen. Otherwise, my pay will get docked again this month.”
Rong Qi was montarily speechless and said, “I understand.”
Watching Xu Yi walk away, Rong Qi finally stepped into Serene Garden. Despite being closed for a long ti, it was bustling with activity for the sudden auction. So had even flown back from abroad specifically for this event. However, just as she walked in, she heard a commotion. Furrowing her brows, she stood at a distance to watch.
Rong Tianshi and his assistant were arguing with the security guards at the entrance. They were trying to gain entry but lacked the qualifications to do so. As a result, an altercation erupted right at the entrance of Serene Garden.
‘Is this the place to cause such a scene?’ Rong Qi thought, taking in the unfolding drama..
