Chapter 9: 9

It was all merely her wishful thinking!

In school—

“Come again?! That man… is actually your Third Uncle? Hahahahahaha—”

Su Yunhua could not help but lie on the table and laugh her head off after hearing what her friend had told her. “Chi Yi, how are you so unlucky?! To think you could actually bump into your relative on the rare occasion we head to a pub for some fun! Hahaha… This is absolutely hilarious no matter how I think about it!”

“Scram!” Chi Yi unkindly gave the former a shove. “If not for that rotten idea that you came up with, need I end up in such a pathetic plight? You have no idea what horrible fate I suffered yesterday! I was made to stand still for five whole hours as punishment! My heels are so sore now!”

“Pfft— Well, you deserve it! By the way, what’s the age gap between us and your uncle? He only looks slightly older than us!”

“He’s ten years older than me!”

As she gave her reply, she pulled out a book from her school bag and kept it in her desk storage.

“Ten years? That’s not much!” With a lovestruck look on her face, her friend nudged her shoulder with a smile. “Hey, since you’re his niece, it’s game over for you! As the saying goes, ‘One doesn’t allow benefits created by one’s own work to go to others’, what do you think about introducing him to me?”

“…” She shot a leering side-eye at her friend and without giving her any face, snorted. “Nothing much!”

“Why not? How petty of you! Don’t tell me you really have feelings for him?”

“Am I mad?!” With a snort, she wrinkled her nose. “I don’t want you two together! If you both really end up together, won’t I have to address you as ‘Third Aunt’ then? Bah! Want to take advantage of me? Fat chance!”

“… Wretch, you’re quite astute despite your mediocre results!”

Right then, the phone in her pocket rang and a message alert popped out.

It was from an unknown number.

[ You’ll be taken back to the main residence for dinner after school! ]

Is this text message from Chi Zuxu?

So this is his number?

“Who’s the sender?”

Feeling nosey, Su Yunhua popped her head over. “From your uncle?”

“No!”

As Chi Yi hastily put away her phone, she fibbed to her friend, “I don’t know who it’s from. It’s an unknown number.”

She had no idea why she was lying, either.

Am I afraid of Yunhua asking me for Chi Zuxu’s number? It looks like I’m too mindful about her being my Third Aunt! Yes, this must be the reason!

Ever since she received the message from the man, she felt even more restless in class. At each lesson, she would be frequently staring at her wristwatch and wishing for time to fly while silently thinking,

why hasn’t school ended?!

At last—

As soon as the school bell rang, she dashed out of the campus and even when her friend was shouting at her from behind, she paid no attention to it and only waved her goodbye. “See you tomorrow!!”

By the time she reached the school gate, she was already panting away. Still, she sighted that black, posh Bentley that was parked nearby from the school gate at a glance.

She ran over with joy.

The driver hastily alighted and politely opened the car door for her. Alas, as she was prepared to board the car, she realized that there was no one else in the car. The smile on her face stiffened at once. “Uncle Lee, you came alone? Where’s Third Uncle?” she asked.

“Third Young Master only told me to pick you up and I didn’t ask him about anything else.”

“…” Indeed! Never in his message did he mention anything about personally coming to fetch her to the main residence. It was all merely her wishful thinking!

And so, for reasons unbeknownst to her, her good mood instantly plummeted.
