Hello, Heir

Chapter 889: Mishap, Bitten by a Dog? (4)

Many had pursued her during her university days, but none had made her heart flutter.

So, how was it possible that she was attracted to Xu Dazhi?

This was illogical!

Zhuang Nainai knocked herself on her head. In the next instant, she thought of the fact that they had kissed and of the awkwardness they would feel at work the next day.

At the thought of this, she flagged down a cab to head toward Xibali.

She wrestled with her own thoughts the whole way, causing her to lose her appetite. As she squirmed on the bed uncomfortably in the dead of night, the silence in the air attacked her.

She picked up her cell phone to chat with Lin Xi’er.

Zhuang Nainai texted, “How am I going to face him tomorrow?”

Lin Xi’er shot back, “What do you mean, face him? Just fire him! Where have you ever seen a male employee bullying his boss?”

Zhuang Nainai wasn’t so sure. “But we’re friends, and I’ll feel bad.”

Lin Xi’er replied with ellipses.

Zhuang Nainai was confused. “What do you mean?”

Lin Xi’er texted back, “You’ll feel bad? Have you forgotten how, in your university days, you gave Shi Haoyu a beating when he had simply touched your hand?”

Now it was Zhuang Nainai’s turn to send ellipses.

Lin Xi’er replied with ellipses.

Zhuang Nainai couldn’t stand it any longer. “What are you trying to say?”

Lin Xi’er replied, “I’m thinking... Have you gone too long without a man such that you’ve gotten lonely? So, in order to alleviate the emptiness, you’re now just grabbing any Tom, Dick, and Harry?”

Zhuang Nainai was flabbergasted. “What sort of description is this? How is this possible?!”

Lin Xi’er, unperturbed, went on, “Right, this is impossible. So you can’t develop feelings for Xu Dazhi, because if we compare him to Mr. Si, one belongs to the heavens while the other belongs to the dirt.”

Lin Xi’er’s sudden mention of Si Zhengting made Zhuang Nainai’s fingers freeze. She was slightly stunned.

Pursing her lips together, she kept quiet for a few moments.

Meanwhile, Lin Xi’er’s messages kept coming.

“Nainai, Xu Dazhi isn’t a good match. He’s so ugly, and putting both of you side by side reminds me of Beauty and the Beast. So please, don’t fall for him.”

“Nainai?”

“Nainai?”

“Nainai?”

It was only after Zhuang Nainai’s cell phone buzzed several times that she was brought back to the present. After reading Lin Xi’er’s messages, she quickly texted back.

Zhuang Nainai replied, “I’m here, I’m here.”

Lin Xi’er replied, “It’s late, go rest! Don’t keep using your cell phone~”

Zhuang Nainai assented.

After both of them said good night to each other, Zhuang Nainai suddenly realized that chatting with Lin Xi’er had made her feel even more confused.

She was actually slightly attracted to Xu Dazhi.

When did it even begin?

Was it the first time she had seen him during her confinement period, when she had mistaken him for Si Zhengting? Or was it during the subsequent meetings where he had repeatedly given her the same feeling that Si Zhengting used to give her?

Si Zhengting, Xu Dazhi...

Xu Dazhi, Si Zhengting...

These two people couldn’t be more different from each other, but why did she feel that they were somewhat similar?

Zhuang Nainai tossed and turned on the bed, still unable to sleep. Eventually, she picked up her cell phone, intending to read some documents.

But nothing she read went in, and she simply skipped here and there on her cell phone. By the time she was aware of what she was doing, she found herself scrolling through her WeChat Moments.

Unsurprisingly, Xu Dazhi had posted on his WeChat.

Zhuang Nainai suddenly realized that the mere act of reading his WeChat Moments got her excited. The moment she read his latest post, however, she was enraged to the point of almost flinging her cell phone!

Xu Dazhi had posted, “Today was truly an unlucky day. The old hag actually resorted to violence! Forget it, I’ll treat it as having been bitten by a dog. It’s not as if I can bite back, can I?”

Zhuang Nainai was outraged!

He had been bitten by a dog? Was he referring to the time when they had been kissing?

This Xu Dazhi... This Xu Dazhi!

She was not going to let this matter rest!
