When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase Chapter 138: Is It Love or Obsession? (8)
The sound on the other end of the phone was not very clear to Sheng Jianan, with so static, and it seed like the person was saying a lot, but he didn’t catch much, except for the phrase "Tangtang, scumbag, scumbag call, Tangtang co out quickly" that Sheng Jianan heard word for word.
Young Master Sheng’s face instantly turned as dark as Bao Qingtian, scumbag?
Nobody has ever dared to call him that!
The phone was picked up again, this ti with Tang Yanqi’s cool, indifferent voice, yet naturally gentle like a girl’s: "Hello?"
Sheng Jianan’s face was as stinky as ever, and he blurted out: "Tang Yanqi, you’ve got so nerve, not daring to answer this Young Master’s call?"
"Sorry, I was just in the bathroom, Mr. Sheng, do you need sothing?"
Her polite and distant manner was like that of a newly acquainted stranger, and Sheng Jianan was suddenly at a loss for words, but now he understood sothing—verbal attacks never affect Tang Yanqi, they’re like fists hitting cotton, not hurting the opponent but leaving himself extrely frustrated.
Sheng Jianan sneered coldly, getting straight to the point: "There’s an event tonight, accompany ."
On the other end, Tang Yanqi frowned, paused for two seconds, and calmly spoke: "Mr. Sheng, I recall we agreed not to make my identity public."
Young Master Sheng’s anger was growing, and he stood up from his office chair. He invited her to accompany him to a dinner, my goodness, this was sothing many won dread of, so why did her tone sound so reluctant?
Sheng Jianan was utterly displeased, yet he couldn’t refute her, so he could only grit his teeth and force out each word.
"They’re all friends, they all know you."
The agreent to stay private was only towards the public; within their circle, so had seen Tang Yanqi, especially since, at the ti of the wedding, even though fewer people were invited, the several families close to the Sheng Family still got invitations.
Tang Yanqi subconsciously interpreted the "event" Sheng Jianan ntioned as one of those idle family cocktail parties of the rich and powerful. If it was such a party, Mr. Sheng would likely be paying attention, and no wonder Sheng Jianan would bring her along.
After two more seconds of silence, Tang Yanqi nodded: "Hmm, do I need to prepare anything? What ti? Where is it?"
"Five o’clock, at the old place near the side gate of K University, I’ll pick you up."
After Sheng Jianan finished speaking, he imdiately hung up the phone. He really didn’t want to say another word to that woman; every second was infuriating as hell.
Leaning back in his office chair, Sheng Jianan rubbed his forehead, sincerely feeling that if one day he, the Young Master Sheng, prematurely died, it would definitely be because he was annoyed to death by that woman nad "Tang Yanqi."
On the other side, Tang Yanqi listened to the "beep beep" sound in the phone, sighed softly, and put down the overheated phone. Five o’clock? That might not work!
After finishing her class in the morning, she had received a eting request from her thesis advisor to discuss the topic at 4:30 in the afternoon, and half an hour might not be enough ti, would it?
Tang Yanqi hesitated for a mont but still sent Sheng Jianan a text ssage, using very polite wording, hoping to delay it a little.
After sending the ssage, she sat down, and Qi Cheng leaned over. Now, with only the two of them in the dormitory, Qi Cheng spoke directly: "Tangtang, your scumbag is looking for you, won’t he bully you again?"
