Chapter 40

Missing .

Zhen Zhen helped Leo and Felix washed the bedsheets in the garden .

‘Miss Zhen Zhen is a beautiful woman,’ Felix praised .

‘Miss Zhen Zhen, are you married?’ Leo asked . ‘I have a nephew . ’

‘Your nephew doesn’t suit with Miss Zhen Zhen,’ Felix said . ‘But boss Yan Fen suits Miss Zhen Zhen . ’

Tan Hai pinched her nose, and she walked to where Zhen Zhen was washing bedsheets .

‘Miss Tan, who are you looking for?’ Felix asked .

‘Where’s big brother Yan Fen?’ Tan Hai asked .

‘Boss Yan Fen isn’t here,’ Felix said . ‘Princesses like yourself should go back to your palace . ’

‘Miss Zhen Zhen, you fit right in with the peasants,’ Tan Hai said .

‘What did you say?’ Leo asked .

‘Leo, let’s not bloody the bedsheets we’re washing,’ Zhen Zhen said .

Tan Hai pretended she wasn’t scared of Leo .

‘It’s good you peasants know your place,’ Tan Hai said . ‘When is big brother Yan Fen coming back? It’s hot here . ’

‘Miss Tan, you can go home first,’ Zhen Zhen said . ‘I’ll ask big brother Yan Fen to call you when he’s back . ’

‘I’ll wait here,’ Tan Hai said .

Zhen Zhen, Felix and Leo acted like they couldn’t see Tan Hai . They continued washing the bedsheets .

Tan Hai saw a beautiful tall man walking toward her, and Yan Fen was following behind the beautiful man . She thought the beautiful man must be someone important if Yan Fen wasn’t walking beside him .

‘Felix, Leo, what are you two looking at?’ Zhen Zhen asked .

Lam Chen introduced the beautiful man before Felix or Leo could answer Zhen Zhen’s question .

‘Everyone relax,’ Lam Chen said . ‘This is Yue Gu Zai, the leader of Ni Sheng . He’s here to find his missing wife . ’

‘Missing wife?’ Leo asked .

‘He has a wife?’ Tan Hai asked . ‘What a waste . ’

‘Even if he doesn’t have a wife, you wouldn’t have a chance,’ Felix said .

‘Who is his wife?’ Leo asked .

Yue Gu Zai ignored the commotion . He was relieved and happy to find Zhen Zhen . He quickly walked to Zhen Zhen .

‘Zhen Zhen, let’s go home,’ Yue Gu Zai said .

Zhen Zhen was nervous having everyone stare at her .

‘Gu Zai, I haven’t finish washing the bedsheets,’ Zhen Zhen said .

All the servants wanted to hide . They couldn’t believe they let Yue Gu Zai’s wife help them wash bedsheets .

Yan Fen’s heart sunk . He didn’t have a chance to confess his feelings toward Yue Gu Zai’s wife . He enviously watched Yue Gu Zai hug Zhen Zhen .

‘Now I remember,’ Mac Wu said . ‘Miss Zhen Zhen is the famous prodigy . She’s the youngest person to receive national and international awards for scientific research . ’

Yue Gu Zai carried Zhen Zhen in his arms .

‘Gu Zai, put me down,’ Zhen Zhen whispered in Yue Gu Zai’s ear .

‘No,’ Yue Gu Zai said .

‘Hello Mr Yue,’ Tan Hai greeted . ‘I’m Tan Hai . ’

Yue Gu Zai carried Zhen Zhen to the car . She looked back at the pitiful Tan Hai who looked abandoned . She understood Yue Gu Zai didn’t waste his time on anyone he didn’t care about .
