Chapter 244: Chapter 244: Apologizing at the Door Chapter 244: Chapter 244: Apologizing at the Door “You’re overthinking,” Zhong Niangyao shook her head, “If it’s soone I’m seeking revenge on, I absolutely wouldn’t mistake the person. If I couldn’t even manage that, what would I be doing in this line of work!”
Although the relationship between that bodyguard and his employer was rely a contractual one, at the end of the day, it was still a contract. As long as such a contract existed, she could find the person behind it all.
Seeing that Zhong Niangyao had nothing more to explain, Ai Lun was curious but did not dwell further on the subject.
However, he was still curious about one thing,
“So, Lady Zhong, how do you plan on teaching the mastermind a lesson?”
“Hehe, I’ll be a civilized person and won’t resort to too much violence,” Zhong Niangyao’s lips curved into a wicked smile, “I plan to have the ghosts of those he killed have a little chat with him, tonight!”
Since the ti was already set, it naturally couldn’t be changed. If it was said to be tonight, then it must be tonight.
Seeing the smile on Zhong Niangyao’s face and hearing her words, Ai Lun couldn’t help but shiver. At the sa ti, he began to feel sorry for the person behind the scenes.
You think, out of all the people to offend, had to offend Lady Zhong. If the mastermind behind this doesn’t have enough guts, then tonight might be dangerous.
After today’s events, he truly understood how formidable Miss Zhong Niangyao was. No wonder Uncle Li and the others always gave a thumbs up whenever they ntioned Lady Zhong.
Soon, Zhong Niangyao and Ai Lun had returned to the hotel.
Upon entering the hotel, Zhong Niangyao saw Lu Yichen, dressed in a suit, seated in the guest area. She couldn’t help but stride forward,
“I’ve arranged everything concerning the mine.”
Seeing Zhong Nianyao approaching him, Lu Yichen imdiately stood up and walked towards her, then casually asked, “Was everything smooth today?”
“Not bad. Apart from a few shortsighted people, everything else went well,” Zhong Niangyao spoke with a smile, “Today I uncovered five pieces of jade. I now have enough jade on hand, and even so surplus to make a few pieces of jewelry.”
Seeing Zhong Niangyao’s enthusiastic deanor, a hint of a smile also appeared on Lu Yichen’s face, then he asked, “So, do you want to return to the country within these two days, or would you like to stay a few more days before going back?”
He didn’t press further about those shortsighted people she ntioned because Ai Lun would report all that to him later.
“Let’s hurry back to the country!” Zhong Niangyao smiled, “With what happened to Zhong ngxuan, I’m not sure how things are at ho. Although Grandpa and Grandma verbally say they are fine, I’m still a bit worried about them.”
Lu Yichen also understood Zhong Niangyao’s concerns, so he didn’t persuade her otherwise.
Having spent the entire day at the Gambling Stone Market, Zhong Niangyao was feeling quite tired.
After dinner, she went straight back to her room to rest.
She stayed awake until dawn, then got out of bed.
After washing up, she heard a series of knocks on the door.
Thinking it was room service, Zhong Niangyao got up and opened the door.
Only to realize after opening the door that it wasn’t room-service at all. True, there was a service staff standing there, but behind her, there was a group of burly n. The one leading them was a middle-aged man, looking smart and capable in his attire.
However, even though his clothing and accessories were ticulous, the middle-aged man’s complexion looked very haggard. Dark circles under his eyes were nearly black, and his face carried traces of fatigue.
Anyone with discerning eyes could tell that the service worker had been coerced into coming up here.
“Oh, what drama is this?”
Most people would be scared to death in such a situation, but clearly, Zhong Niangyao was not most people.
She leaned casually against the door, her face displaying a lazy expression, and with a smirk that wasn’t quite a smile, she looked toward the people in front of her, “Early in the morning, you wouldn’t be here to kidnap , would you? That would really scare !”
Although she said that, there wasn’t a trace of fear on Zhong Niangyao’s face; instead, she appeared extraordinarily calm. It was as if those in front of her weren’t burly n at all, but just so insignificant cabbages.
“Miss, could we co in and talk?” The lead middle-aged man, in facing Zhong Niangyao, didn’t put on airs, “I think there’s been a misunderstanding between us, and it would be good to clear it up.”
“A misunderstanding?” Zhong Niangyao shrugged her shoulders, sounding indifferent, “What misunderstanding could there be between us? We haven’t even t before, have we?”
Hearing Zhong Niangyao’s response, the middle-aged man’s face changed slightly, but quickly returned to normal, “Miss Zhong, my na is Kong Fangming. My subordinates offended you yesterday, and I’ve co today especially to apologize.”
“So, you’re the ‘master’ those n ntioned yesterday who tried to stop and invite to dinner!” Zhong Niangyao looked as if she had just realized, “Then I feel, there definitely couldn’t be any misunderstanding between us. Because that is the reality, certainly not a ‘misunderstanding’ as you claim.”
Actually, the mont the other party appeared, she had already had a good guess of who it might be. After all, a faint trace of ghost energy lingered around Kong Fangming. It was easy to guess that he had encountered a ghost yesterday.
Here in Myanmar, the only people who knew to seek her help after encountering a ghost, apart from those bodyguards who ntioned the Kong Family yesterday, she couldn’t think of anyone else.
As for the fact that they could find her and even call out her na, she wasn’t surprised at all.
After all, for a powerful family like the Kong Family, finding a person was an easy task. Especially since, from beginning to end, she hadn’t hidden her movents.
“Miss Zhong, can we talk inside?” There was a flicker of earnestness in Kong Fangming’s eyes, “Yesterday, my n acted without my knowledge. If I had known, I definitely would not have agreed.”
“Hehe, when you say that, do you believe it yourself?”
It was as if she had heard a joke, a playful expression appeared on Zhong Niangyao’s face, “You coming here today to find probably isn’t really to apologize, right? I guess, it’s because you didn’t sleep well last night, so you wanted to find to help you figure out a solution!”
“Miss Zhong, it really was your doing,” Kong Fangming’s expression turned a bit ugly, “Spare others when you can, especially in a foreign land—it’s still important to take care of yourself.”
