Chapter 82 Fun Place
"Mingyu, are you not done?!" Shi Wenqian called out while gazing up the stairs.
Shi Wenqian was dressed in a black mature gown, with her hair arranged in a neat low bun. She carried a brown leather handbag in her arms. Her feet were adorned in a black kitten heels.
"Mum, I\'m sure he is taking his time. You said we were going to a fun place to rest," Zhang Xiaoling said with a smile.
She too was dressed formerly, and she looked even more eye-catching with the blood red lipstick on her face.
"That doesn\'t mean he should be keeping us waiting..." Shi Wenqian said in an annoyed tone.
She had asked them to follow her to a fun place the previous day, and as for the location and name of the place they were going to, she didn\'t mention it to them.
She left them in suspense purposely, by saying that it would be no fun if they got to know where they were going to.
Another surprising thing about this outing, was that they couldn\'t let Zhang Renshu know anything about it.
"Mum, you have grown past our generation, so you might have forgotten that youngsters these days, like to dress to impress," Zhang Xiaoling said.
Shi Wenqian rolled her eyes briefly. "I don\'t think there is any need for him to take his time while dressing up today."
"But you are all dressed up, so I am." Zhang Xiaoling said in wonder.
Her mother stood out in her outfit, and now she didn\'t want someone else to get all dressed up, what a weird motion.
"It is okay for me to dress and stand out today because I am the boss. As for you, it\'s okay with you hence I didn\'t berate you. After all, you have a role to play." Shi Wenqian said while looking away.
In her mind, she thought, \'We are going to a place that doesn\'t require a display of our beauty or fashion sense!\'
Finally, Zhang Mingyu came down the stairs looking all smartly dressed up. Before he even touched down at the foot of the stairs, Zhang Xiaoling smiled and asked, "Did you finish a bottle of perfume on your body?"
Instinctively, Zhang Mingyu brought his left arm close to his nose to sniff his sleeves. Then he asked when he glanced back to her face, "Is it that obvious? Using up a bottle of perfume is an understatement. I only used 7 shots, is the scent that strong?"
Shi Wenqian glanced at him in irritation. "What a waste!" Then glancing at him properly, she said with a frown, "I reminded you and your sister not to wear any brightly coloured clothes today, but you still went ahead to put on a white shirt underneath your leather jacket?"
"I know you said that, but I just wanted to unbox a new outfit today," Zhang Mingyu replied with a teasing gaze.
Shi Wenqian had a serious gaze on him for almost a minute before Zhang Xiaoling called out to her.
"Mum, are we not going to be late if we don\'t leave now?"
"The party won\'t start until we are present. Because we are the only real VVIPs. Let\'s go," Shi Wenqian said and led the way.
"We are the real VVIPs? That\'s so cool," Zhang Mingyu said excitedly before following after her.
Zhang Xiaoling\'s small smile hung on her face for a bit before it slowly vanished, then, she followed after her mother and brother as well.
Now, her mind was no longer settled. She had a lot of questions to ask her mother, but knowing that she wouldn\'t answer her, she didn\'t bother to bring any of them up.
"I will take the car with the housekeeper, you two can take the other one." Shi Wenqian instructed and went to enter the first car and settle herself in the back passenger seat of the Maybach.
Zhang Mingyu and Zhang Xiaoling had no disapproval, and just entered the backside of the second car.
Soon, the two cars drove out of the premises.
"Ma\'am, the leader called to say the match was about to start." Hoousekeeper Cha, also known as Shi Wenqian\'s secretary, got off the phone and announced.
Shi Wenqian met her gaze and instructed strictly, "Let him know that we are on our way! The match can\'t start till I\'m seated."
"I understand." Secretary Cha replied and went back on her phone and spoke, "We will be there in a few minutes, the game can\'t start until Ma\'am is already seated."
"Let Ma\'am know that the boys are getting impatient. Can you bring her over quickly?" The hoarse male voice rang out from the other end.
This time around, the call was on loudspeaker, so Shi Wenqian was able to hear his words clearly. She scoffed and asked immediately, "Are your underlines ready to give up their precious organs so quickly?"
Immediately the man heard her voice, he didn\'t dare to insist on them to hurry up. "I will take care of some other matters first."
"Hang up!" Shi Wenqian instructed. Secretary Cha immediately carried out her instruction.
"Step on the pedal!" Shi Wenqian let out another instruction, but this time, it was to the driver.
As soon as the driver in the first car sped up, the driver in the second car stepped on his pedal as well.
"Do you have an idea of where we are going to? Mum won\'t say anything..." Zhang Mingyu asked curiously.
"I have no idea, she didn\'t say anything to me either. Since we are on our way already, I think you should just calm down for a few minutes and find out where we are going to." Zhang Xiaoling said without sparing him a glance.
Zhang Mingyu also did not bother to ask anymore questions. He whipped out his phone from his trouser pockets and began to play games with it.
The sound from the game was loud, making Zhang Xiaoling to be irritated. "It would be considerate of you to know that you are not alone on this ride, and turn down the volume of your phone."
Zhang Mingyu pressed furiously on his phone screen while replying, "You should also know that it\'s more fun to hear the sound of the game while playing it."
"How rude of you!" Zhang Xiaoling said with a tight frown on her face. Her irritation, clearly visible.
Zhang Mingyu paused the game before lifting his head to say to her, "If you have your airpods, you can block your ears with them, or give them to me to make use of, if you don\'t want to hear the sound from the game."
Zhang Xiaoling was so annoyed by his audacity, but didn\'t show it on her face. She stared at him for quite a few moment, but when he turned his gaze back to his phone and wanted to get back on playing his game, she opened her purse and dipped her hand inside it.
The next moment, she took out a small white case and opened it, before passing the airpods to him. "I hope your ears are clean."
Zhang Mingyu accepted them saying, "Don\'t worry, I know simple hygiene routine."
Plugging the pods to his ears, he immediately connected them to his phone via Bluetooth, and continued playing his game.
An hour later, the two cars left City S boundary, and were now headed for a place with no destination.
"Where do you think we are going to?" Zhang Mingyu asked in surprise as he looked up from his phone only to be left in confusion as he didn\'t recognise where they were.
Zhang Xiaoling had a twisted expression on her face. She seemed to have an idea of where their mother was taking them to.
\'I can\'t believe she is bringing us to that place! How could she dare to involve us in her business!\' She thought to herself while squeezing her fingers in a fist.
She was so mad inside and was about to explode.
Hearing no reply from the person by his side, Zhang Mingyu was forced to shift his gaze from the car window to her face.
He saw her staring straight ahead, but what was in front of her, was the back of the driver\'s seat, so what was she staring at?
"Xiaoling, what are you staring at? I\'m asking where we are, and you are quiet, are you not worried?!" Zhang Mingyu asked with an annoyed gaze.
"Worried? What should I be worried for? It\'s not like our own mother is going to sell us off." Zhang Xiaoling retorted with a dark gaze.
Zhang Mingyu was pissed off with her attitude, and was about to lash out when he saw them drive into an old building.
"We are here!" The driver who has been quiet all through the ride, listening to the siblings bicker, announced and turned off the car\'s engine.
"What?! What...what are we doing in a place like this?! Did the drivers forget the route or something?"
Zhang Mingyu was very much confused while staring at his surroundings from the car. They were supposed to be going to a fun place, so what were they doing in an abandoned villa that looked so creepy?!
"Ma\'am, we are here..." Secretary Cha announced before stepping out of the car to open the car door for Shi Wenqian.
