Agree to what?
Before everyone got to hear what Yang Weiting was going to say, Shen Zhong was already threatening her, “You better shut your trap, woman. Otherwise, I’ll expose your little secret!”
Yang Weiting and Shen Zhong’s conversation raised suspicion but no one there knew what it was all about.
As expected, Yang Weiting blanched the moment she heard that Shen Zhong was going to expose her while the others grew more doubtful listening to them. What dirty secret could there be? Did Yang Weiting and Shen Zhong share some other relationship?
Yun Jian arched a brow as an unnoticeable gleam flashed across her eyes.
On the other hand, Si Yi raised the black wristwatch he wore to take a glance before his thick brows on his impeccably gorgeous face furrowed.
“It’s 12:30pm now. We should get going.” Si Yi’s incongruous voice came up.
“Mom, don’t be bothered with them. Let’s go,” Yun Jian told Qin Yirou as she did not want to get entangled with Yang Weiting and Shen Zhong anymore either.
“Mn.” Once Qin Yirou thought about having to rush home to prepare dinner in the evening, because Yun Jian had to go to school for the evening revision session. She was not planning to waste any more time here.
“Wait! Are you guys not planning to forgive me now?” Shen Zhong panicked when he heard that they were leaving and quickly asked.
Shen Zhong was a smart man. He did not pose the question to Yun Jian, Si Yi, or Dong Ruan but he asked looking at Qin Yirou.
He knew about Qin Yirou’s character, he was well aware that she was soft and meek. She had been that way in high school and when someone asked something from her, she was extremely kind to fulfill their request.
“I…” Qin Yirou got nervous promptly at Shen Zhong’s question.
“We aren’t related to you at all. What’s there to be forgiven?” Judging from Shen Zhong’s action, Yun Jian knew that the man must have a favor to ask, so she answered him on behalf of Qin Yirou.
The meaning of her reply was more than obvious.
While Yun Jian could not guess what Shen Zhong was thinking, she could more or less grasp the idea of it. By the looks of the man alone, she knew that he had a favor to ask from her—perhaps it had to do with New Cruise.
If she were to recruit someone like Shen Zhong into New Cruise or even assign important duties to people like him, New Cruise would certainly not have a long future ahead.
“Mom, let’s go.” This time, Yun Jian freed her hand from Si Yi’s hold to go over and tug Qin Yirou toward Geli Bridal Boutique instead.
Watching Yun Jian and the group enter Geli Boutique Bridal, Shen Zhong’s wishful plan was instantly ruined. He resentfully saw Yun Jian disappear before his eyes but was unable to do anything about it.
“I don’t feel so well suddenly. I’ll get going…” Yang Weiting told her old classmates, no longer having the mood to hang out, as she saw Yun Jian and others heading into Geli Bridal Boutique.
“Wait!” Knowing that he could not get himself into New Cruise, Shen Zhong was backpedaling to suck up to Yang Weiting.
“Yang Weiting, what you promised me previously…”
“Pft, forget it!” Once Yang Weiting recalled what Shen Zhong did just now, she fumed, thus she gritted in reply.
“Okay! Yang Weiting, you want me to disclose your embarrassing story here right in front of everyone, huh! Hah!” Shen Zhong threatened again, putting the blame of not being able to work in New Cruise to Yang Weiting.
