Chapter 342 - Who Was Framing Her? (10)
Chapter 342: Who Was Framing Her? (10)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhuang Nainai had no idea of what had happened in the office.
She was, at the present moment, in the house that she and her mother stayed in in Xibali Village.
Lin Xi’er was home, too. Dissatisfied with her work, she had resigned from her previous job and was now looking for her next one.
She tidied up the room together with Zhuang Nainai, which was dusty due to a lack of occupants.
As she wiped the table, Zhuang Nainai began to speak. “I’m afraid I’ll have to entrust you with my belongings for the upcoming period of time. I’m not sure when I’ll be able to get back from my trip, and this house…”
Lifting her head to look around the house that she had spent over 10 years living in, she suddenly felt a wave of reluctance to let it go. Yet she continued, “I can’t afford the rent any longer, so when I’m gone, feel free to rent it out to other people.”
Even though she had already decided to leave the country to find her mother, there were still some things she had to clear up ― things like getting her passport ready, which would take some time.
Zhuang Nainai had decided to stay here in this period of time.
As she listened to her speak, Lin Xi’er’s eyes reddened. But just as she was about to exclaim something, Su Yanbin, who had already surveyed the whole house, pursed his lips and beat her to it. “What in the world, Zhuang Nainai! Is this a house or is this a dog’s kennel? Can anyone even live in such a small space?”
Twisting his hips and settling down onto the sofa, he continued. “I feel as if I have to bend down to walk around this house! It’s seriously too small and short! I’ve got a villa down in the suburbs that’s much better; why not stay there?”
Zhuang Nainai stared at him, ignoring his last sentence. “Well, I didn’t ask you to come in!”
Su Yanbin broke into a smile. “Come on, I was just curious. During our high school days, we always wanted to come over to your house to play, but you always rejected us. Now that I’m finally here, of course I’ve got to come in and have a look. If not, Zuo Yiyi would probably laugh her head off at me not having grabbed the chance!”
High school?
She finally recalled.
Zuo Yiyi had always wanted to humiliate her. Without any better idea, she had resorted to bringing conglomerate heirs to her house.
Zhuang Nainai couldn’t have cared less, but Si Zhengting had rejected the invitation.
She had been innocent at the time and hadn’t asked much about it.
But now, thinking back, Si Zhengting must have thought that if Su Yanbin and Zuo Yiyi were to see her humble abode, it would have become another reason to ridicule her.
Zhuang Nainai paused, sadness welling up in her heart.
Actually…
In the eyes of everyone, it was she who had been shamelessly chasing and pandering to Si Zhengting, but nobody knew that he was equally gentle and caring toward her feelings.
And when she had unthinkingly made him follow her home, he must have looked down on this house, right?
But he had always retained his composure and decorum. Unlike Su Yanbin, he was much better in this respect.
Her nose wrinkling, Zhuang Nainai sighed.
Cleaning the fridge, Lin Xi’er noticed that it was empty due to the lack of occupants in the house. A glance at Zhuang Nainai told her that Zhuang Nainai probably had no appetite for food anyway, so she said, “I’ll go get you some household items.”
Zhuang Nainai nodded her head. “Thank you!”
Lin Xi’er washed her hands and left the small house.
Su Yanbin rolled his eyes upon seeing Lin Xi’er. Following her out, he said, “I’m going out for some fresh air. I’m going to suffocate to death if I continue staying in here!”
Su Yanbin chased after Lin Xi’er and patted her on the back. Shocked, Lin Xi’er turned around and curled her lips. “What do you want?”
