“It’s all right. I’ll flag a taxi.” Su Yue turned her face away to survey her surroundings. But there wasn’t a vehicle in sight.
She was already anxious to begin with, and now Zhao Zheng’s presence had annoyed her, and so she hastened her footsteps.
Zhao Zheng drove slowly to trail after Su Yue. He continued to pester Su Yue and rattled on. “I have nothing on now. I can send you there. There is no need to be so courteous with me.”
The smile on his face irked Su Yue. She coldly said, “I’m not trying to be courteous, but my third brother will get angry if I get a ride from you.”
She would never let him get close to her at all even if it meant being rude and blunt.
Zhao Zheng’s expression turned grave and ugly at the mention of Yan Rusheng’s name. He put on a smile quickly as he sarcastically remarked, “Your third brother is such a petty guy?”
To him, Yan Rusheng was not only petty. He was an arrogant bastard who was condescending and shallow.
Su Yue ignored Zhao Zheng’s remarks. With him following her, it would be harder for her to flag a taxi. She raised her voice and sounded extremely annoyed. “Professor Zhao, stop following me. I’m trying to get a taxi.”
How could a person be so brazen and shameless? She had already rejected his offer outright, yet he was still so persistent and unashamed.
No wonder Third sister-in-law didn’t like him. Anyone with a right mind would dislike this obnoxious and revolting man.
Su Yue hastened her footsteps in a bid to shake him off.
However, Zhao Zheng was relentless. “Su Yue, just let me send you. It’s hard to get a taxi here.”
Su Yue didn’t bother to answer him and she stuffed her hands into her pockets.
“I saw your good friend Bai Jing near Grand Bar with a few middle-aged men last night,” interjected Zhao Zheng.
Su Yue’s heart skipped a beat and she slowly turned her head. She warily gazed at Zhao Zheng.
A fleeting streak of coldness and triumph flashed past in his eyes when Su Yue finally stopped ignoring him.
He then faked a worried expression.
Su Yue frowned as she asked, “What did you say? Where did you see her?”
Grand Bar? Middle-aged men? Where was Grand Bar?
She knew restaurants in the capital city, but she wasn’t aware of any entertainment places.
“I saw your friend Bai Jing. She was drunk at Grand Bar last night. She seemed as she was grappling with those men.” Zhao Zheng took out his phone as he continued saying, “I was with a friend and I passed by the bar. I wasn’t sure if Bai Jing was with anyone else so I didn’t go over. But I took photos.”
He browsed through his phone and found the photo to show Su Yue.
Su Yue stared at Zhao Zheng’s phone. It seemed that the photo was taken outside a luxurious-looking bar which was brightly lit. It displayed the name ‘Grand Bar’.
Su Yue could instantly tell that the girl in the photo was Bai Jing even if the photo was taken at night. The girl in the photo was wearing the white coat Bai Jing had worn yesterday and her hair was tied in braids.
Su Yue’s heart sank as she widened her eyes.
‘Lei Yong wanted me to acpany some old man. I didn’t want to do it…’
She said she had rejected Lei Yong’s request. But why… why would she go to the bar?
Her brother must have coerced or threatened her. Su Yue became incensed the more she thought of it, and she really felt like killing Lei Yong.
