io minutes later, Qin Nan came out. Her cheeks were flushed red, clearly having had a lot to drink. She immediately started complaining, “You have no idea. After you went to the restroom, those men cornered me and kept pouring drinks into me. I almost couldn’t catch my breath.”
“Are you okay?” Chi Enen asked, concerned, as she patted her back.
Qin Nan waved her hand dismissively like a boss, then turned to look at her seriously, setting aside her joking demeanor, and asked in earnest, “I should be the one asking you. Enen, are you alright? That dirty old man didn’ t take advantage of you, did he?”
“No, he only touched my hand before I kicked him into the toilet bowl. I was worried he’d come after me when he got out, so I told you to leave first.”
Qin Nan scolded her, “You’re too bold. Didn’t you ever think what you would’ve done if he hadn’t gotten stuck in the toilet bowl? Honestly, when facing situations like that, following the Thirty-six Strategies, if you can run, then run. Don’t play the Honey Trap!”
Chi Enen stuck out her tongue in response to her lecture, then playfully shook her arm, “Okay, Sister Nan, don’t be mad at me. I was just angry at the time, and I had a backup plan. If he didn’t get stuck in the toilet bowl, I would have hit him on the head with a bucket and then kicked him in his life root. I’d wait for him to feel the pain and then run. Who knew he’d be so unlucky as to get stuck just like that.”
And it wasn’t that she didn’t want to run. At the time, Wang Jian was blocking the women’s restroom, and he clearly didn’t intend to let her go. She feared that if she didn’t agree, Wang Jian might force her. It would be uncertain who would suffer more if it came to a direct confrontation, so she had no choice but to take a risky move.
“But Sister Nan, by offending Wang Jian, this deal will probably fall through. I might even drag you down with me… I’m sorry.” Her tone was downcast.
She didn’t care about being fired; she was just upset about hitting that creep. However, she didn’t want to cause trouble for Qin Nan.
“What’s there to worry about? If we’ve offended him, so be it. He’s not our boss; it’s none of his business!” Qin Nan patted her shoulder and comforted her a bit before taking out her mobile phone and making a phone call.
In a short while, a black Santana pulled up. The car window rolled down, and a simple and sunny-looking man stuck his head out, “Sister Nan.”
Qin Nan’s face lit up with the happy smile of a loved woman and turned to Chi Enen, “Brother Wang came to pick me up. Let’s go together. You don’t go back to the company today; I’ll tell Fatty Fish that you’re taking a day off at home.”
Chi Enen didn’t want to go back to the company, but she wasn’t planning on being a third wheel. She winked at her and declined, “You guys go ahead; I’ll call a taxi.”
Qin Nan tugged at her a couple of times without success and gave up. She got into the car, but didn’t forget to pop her head out the car window to remind her, “Send me a message when you get home, okay?”
“Sure, bye.”
“Bye.”
The Santana drove off in a cloud of dust—
After the car was well away, Chi Enen walked along the road toward the street corner.
It was just now half past twelve in the afternoon, and the street was bustling with hurried passersby.
She took a few breaths of fresh air, which somewhat eased the fiery pain in her stomach. However, her head began to feel heavy and foggy, perhaps because of the wind she’d caught.”
At that moment, her mobile phone in her bag rang.
She thought it was Qin Nan and took out her mobile phone to answer the call.
“Hello?”
“Uh… I’m on Jianshe Road, what’s up?… Will head to the villa to cook later… No, I’m free… Yes, I’ll wait for you here.”
Chi Enen hung up the phone and found a bus stop to sit down.
In less than 20 minutes, a black Land Rover pulled up in front of her. The driver immediately got out of the car, bowed respectfully, and greeted her, “Young Lady, I hope you haven’t been waiting too long.”
