The driver threw a look at Zhao Anan, thinking that it was ridiculous of her to want to visit the most luxurious jewellery store in A City when she cared so much about the small change.

  But that was what the passenger wanted, so he told her despite his personal feelings. “This bus doesn’t go there directly, you have to get off at the next stop and change to Bus 17. Then get off at the International City stop.”


  “What? Change to another bus?”


  How troublesome! She had thought that this bus would take her there directly.

  Sigh, she should have taken the taxi, fast and convenient.

  Zhao Anan got off at the bus stop, took Bus 17 as what the driver told her and arrived at the jewellery store finally.

  Zhao Anan barely visited the store. For one thing, she had no interest in jewellery, and for another, she was not needed to run the business. So no one at the store recognized her as the boss lady.

  Zhao Zhao and the Old Lady of the Zhao Family were here not only to pick the jewelry, but to talk with the manager and the store staff, finding about the daily situation of operation at the store.

  Zhao Zhao came to the store every week, but the Old Lady of the Zhao Family did not. Yet everyone knew what she looked like.

  When the two biggest owners of the store were on a visit, the entire staff were full of energy and talking to them with a bright smile.

  Zhao Anan did not dare to stay too close to them, fearing that she might be discovered.

  So she went into a cafe opposite the store, ordered a cup of coffee and sat down by the window.

  It took them almost half an hour to get the jewelry ready, and the ladies climbed onto the Rolls-Royce that took them away.

  Zhao Anan hurried out of the cafe, and stopped a taxi. She hurried into the car and said to the driver, “Please, follow that Rolls-Royce!”


  The driver said happily, “Don’t worry, I will!”


  Sometime later, the Rolls-Royce stopped at a western restaurant. The Old Lady and Zhao Zhao got out of the car and entered the restaurant.

  Zhao Anan also went out of the taxi and followed them.

  Zhao Anan had been to this restaurant many times. Before her own was opened, she had done a lot of inspection so as to learn the environmental installation and services. Since it was the best western restaurant in A City, many people from the rich families liked to have a meal here.

  Zhao Anan had never expected that Mu Qing would have chosen such a good place for the blind date. One meal here could cost one-month salary of an ordinary white collar worker!

  Zhao Anan felt a bit sour inside her heart. Even she had not had a date with Mu Qing in such a luxurious and elegant place. Their meetings either happened at home or at the hospital, not at all romantic.

  Although she had been the major reason for that situation, she was still feeling furious that Mu Qing and another girl were on a date at such a romantic place.

  When she met Mu Qing later, she was definitely going to hit him hard.

  He broke up with her yesterday and could not wait to go on a blind date, already.

  What Zhao Anan could not have known was that Mu Qing was forced to go on a blind date today by his grandpa. She felt broken hearted and almost burst into tears with all kinds of emotions mixed up inside her heart.

  She had been with Mu Qing since she was 17, and had liked him for more than 11 years. Their love had seeped into her bones.

  When Mu Qing used to spoil her rotten, Zhao Anan did not feel a thing. She hadn’t cared much about his behavior. Nor did she feel that their love was that deep or rare.

  She believed that it was natural that Mu Qing would treat her nicely, and did not cherish it that much.

  She always made a fuss with Mu Qing and behaved unruly. She never knew how to take care of Mu Qing who did not seem to need her care either, because it had been he who took care of her all the time.

  But now she was told by the Old Lady that Mu Qing was gone already.

  It was not until this moment did Zhao Anan realize how much of a loss it was and how terrible she felt.

  She had thought that she would be tolerant and generous enough to accept Mu Qing’s new girlfriend or even wife. But she was actually so narrow-minded that she even ran to the place where Mu Qing was out for the date.

  Would she go and crash the wedding when Mu Qing got married?

  With hands clenched in a fist, Zhao Anan pressed down her fury and went to the counter with no expressions on her face.

  The first floor of the restaurant was for ordering and paying as well as for food preparation, whilst the second floor was the open lobby and the third was full of elegant rooms.

  Since Zhao Anan used to be a regular here, the waitresses recognized her immediately. She said to her in a flattering tone, “Miss Zhao, here you are! Long time no see. You are getting prettier. What would you like to eat?”


  The waitress was a smooth liar. How could she look pretty in such a state?

  Her hair was unkempt, her clothes were baggy. Her face looked pale and she knew that she looked like a mess.

  She was not in a mood to speak with the waitress. But she could not curse her after the compliment.

  She asked in a quiet tone. “The two women who just came in, did they order an elegant room or an open seat?”


  Zhao Anan was not here for food. After hearing about Mu Qing’s blind date with another woman, she was not in a mood for any food.

  Also, she only had the “large” amount of 90 yuan, which was not even enough for a cup of drink, let alone a plate of beefsteak in here.

  She needed to know which floor Mu Qing was on. She would not be able to take a peak if they ended up being in the elegant room.

  The waitress hesitated for a long while before telling Zhao Anan about the two ladies’ seats.

  They were new clients whilst this lady in front of her was a white gold VIP customer, one who was not to be offended. What was more, it did not matter even if their seats were revealed.

  “They are on the open seats, but did not order anything. They are here to meet someone and soon they will leave.”


  Zhao Anan nodded. Yes, they were here to meet someone, and that someone must be Mu Qing. They were going to give him the jewelry so that he could gift it to someone.

  Zhao Anan got so furious that she wanted to spit blood. She felt that her grandmother and her own mother were so mean to her.

  Even though she had troubled Mu Qing in many ways, they did not have to treat him so nicely.

  This whole thing was very irritating!
