Finding Fu Zhengzheng is staring at her neck with pity, Zhu Ting lowers her head confusedly and has a look. Then she almost jumps up in surprise.
She wears a dress with a boat neck. There is a hickey on her neck!
It should be made when Tang Feng pressed her against the wardrobe door.
It turns out that Xiaoma looked here. She thought he was looking at her chest.
Zhu Ting pulls her collar up in panic while explaining, “Sister Fu, it’s not what you think. It’s accidental.”
“Accidental?” He has kissed her on that part. Is it still accidental? Fu Zhengzheng looks at her more confusedly.
“Listen to me. Tang Feng took me to see Xiao Jinchong. He got drunk. When I took him back, he…”
Zhu Ting thinks she can’t explain it clearly since she has no time, so she gives up explaining. She shows her cellphone to Fu Zhengzheng, “Sister Fu, my last cellphone was burnt. This one was bought by Tang Feng. I’m not sure if it’s installed with other software, so I want to have it checked, or it’ll be inconvenient for us to contact.”
Fu Zhengzheng glances at Han Siqi. He understands her meaning immediately, “Tang Feng will talk with me about business. Then you can go out and walk around. I will tell Lu Song to help you.”
Zhu Ting nods and then looks at Fu Zhengzheng, “Sister Fu, many things happened during the two days. I’ll spare time to tell you in detail. I feel as if we were insulated.”
Fu Zhengzheng looks at her worriedly, “You must protect yourself.”
Zhu Ting nods.
“Waiter, our dishes haven’t been served?” Tang Feng says at the door. Other people in the private room have been seated.
Zhu Ting smiles at Fu Zhengzheng, “I have contacted some law firms, but none of them is suitable. I’m bored at home.”
Fu Zhengzheng cooperates with her, “Looking for a job needs patience.”
Seeing Tang Feng come in, Han Siqi laughs, “Mr. Tang’s business is flourishing. Is it necessary for you to look for a job?”
Tang Feng responds with a smile, “Yes. I’ve told her that if she works for others, she has to obey their orders and it’s uncomfortable. I advise her to open a store.”
Zhu Ting smiles, “I have never opened a store and have no experience.”
“You make it sound like that I expect you to make lots of money. Actually, the store is used to kill your time.”
Han Siqi laughs, “Miss Zhu, please understand Mr. Tang. Which man is willing to see his woman suffer outside? Let alone obey others’ orders.”
Fu Zhengzheng interrupts, “It’s boring to stay at home every day. I agree with Miss Zhu. We don’t have to create a great business, but we have to keep contact with others so that we won’t be alienated from society.”
Tang Feng praises her, “What Mrs. Han says is reasonable. That’s why I ask Ting to open a store. In this way, she doesn’t need to obey others’ orders and meanwhile she can have her own life. But I know nothing about opening a store. Mr. Han is familiar with the business around the Central Street. Could you give us some advice?”
Han Siqi smiles, “I work on store investment. If you need a store, I can help you. But as for what to invest, I know little. After dinner, we’ll go to the dock warehouse. Zhengzheng is off and has nothing to do at home. She can hang around with Miss Zhu on the Central Street. Miss Zhu can think about it by herself.”
Tang Feng is glad, “Thank you, Mrs. Han.”
Fu Zhengzheng waves, “You are welcome. Women love shopping. I’m wondering if I can give some advice.”
“Ting is shy and doesn’t have many friends. It’s good for her to go around with Mrs. Han.” Tang Feng looks at Zhu Ting with a smile, “Ting, hang around with Mrs. Han. Mrs. Han is as easy-going as Mr. Han.”
“I know.” Zhu Ting smiles.
After dinner, Han Siqi calls Lu Song. Soon he comes to drive Zhu Ting and Fu Zhengzheng to the Central Street.
Fu Zhengzheng and Zhu Ting hang around for a while and find they are not tracked. Then they take a rest in a tea house. Lu Song has taken Zhu Ting’s cellphone away for a check.
Zhu Ting tells Fu Zhengzheng the main incidents that happened during the two days when she stayed with Tang Feng. But to prevent Fu Zhengzheng from worrying, she doesn’t tell Fu Zhengzheng that she will live in the same room with Tang Feng.
“Has Tang Feng found something?” Fu Zhengzheng feels scared to hear that.
“If he has found something, he isn’t supposed to behave like this.” OF course, Zhu Ting can’t figure it out, either.
“Anyway, you must be very cautious.” Fu Zhengzheng pauses, stares at Zhu Ting for quite a while and then says, “Tang Feng is really nice to you, but you must be clear-headed. Don’t be…”
Zhu Ting interrupts her with a wry smile, “Sister Fu, I know. Even if we bypass that Tang Feng may do illegal things at docks, he is related to Fu Wenhai’s death at least. Besides, no matter how nicely he treats me, he isn’t my type. If Fu Wenhai…”
Zhu Ting stops at once. Fu Zhengzheng smiles understandingly and then heaves a long sigh, “Fu Wenhai is good-looking, apparently gentle, clever and successful. No wonder Li Xiaomeng was captivated by him. Not only you but also I have a good impression of him. If I hadn’t seen the facts by myself, I wouldn’t have believed he was such a man. This kind of man is just like poison, so I warn you repeatedly of his nature and not to be captivated by his false appearance. But I didn’t expect Tang Feng would appear after Fu Wenhai. It’s really…”
“Am I fated to luck in love?” Zhu Ting plays a joke rarely and then her face becomes solemn, “Many men have their own purposes when they treat women nicely. When they achieve what they want, they may dump the women like old shoes, just like Li Xiaomeng. Of course, Mr. Han is exceptional.”
“You’ll meet your exceptional one. But before that, you have to stick to your own principle. By the way, after we heard you went to see Xiao Jinchong with Tang Feng, you don’t know how worried we were. Luckily, Tang Feng showed your relationship as soon as you got there – waiters were our men.”
Meeting Zhu Ting’s strange eyes, she adds, “Xiao Jinchong is indeed a lecher, but he has a principle that he never scrambles for a woman that his buddy loves.”
Zhu Ting thinks of the hickey on her neck suddenly and knows the reason. Then she explains it to Fu Zhengzheng again.
At last, she can’t help sighing, “It turns out that he hurries me to live with him together in order to give Xiao Jinchong a false impression – I am his woman.”
Of course, she still doesn’t tell Fu Zhengzheng that she will live in a room with Tang Feng.
“He is protecting you in fact. It seems that he is really nice to you.” Fu Zhengzheng is both surprised and excited. She didn’t expect Tang Feng would be so affectionate. If he really loves Zhu Ting, he is sure to protect her carefully and thus she will be safer.
At this moment, Fu Zhengzheng’s cellphone rings. The call is from Zhu Linglong, and she answers it immediately.
“Zhengzheng, I’m buying maternity dresses. I’m going to buy some for you. What colors do you like?”
“Buy maternity dresses for me? Is it too early?”
“I’m in Parkson now. We’ve moved to Handa City. There are no stores selling products for moms and babies on the Central Street. It’s not easy to come to Parkson, so I want to buy as many as possible this time. Tell me now. What colors do you like?”
“It’s up to you. I will like whatever you choose.” Fu Zhengzheng hangs up the phone and an idea strikes her immediately, “There are no stores selling products for moms and babies on the Central Street, and I’m pregnant. You can open a store specializing in products for moms and babies. I can go to your store with this excuse. Our contact will be convenient.”
“Yes, good idea.” Zhu Ting agrees at once. She glances at Fu Zhengzheng’s stomach, “Sister Fu, how are you now?”
“I have pregnancy reaction sometimes, but I’m fine as a whole.”
“Please be careful.”
Fu Zhengzheng nods. Then they keep talking. During this period, Zhu Ting looks at her watch for a few times. Fu Zhengzheng understands her meaning and is ready to call Lu Song when she sees him come over from outside.
“Madam, Mr. Han called me to take you home for a rest because you can’t walk outside too much.”
Seeing Lu Song wink at her, Fu Zhengzheng rises immediately and so does Zhu Ting.
When Lu Song walks past Zhu Ting, he slips her cellphone into her pocket and whispers, “The cellphone has no problem now, but you have missed calls.”
Zhu Ting takes the hint and blinks her eyes without expression.
They walk to the door together. Fu Zhengzheng waves at Zhu Ting and then goes home with Lu Song.
Once getting home, she calls Yang Tao and tells him what she talked about with Zhu Ting.
The first sentence Yang Tao says is, “Tell Zhu Ting never let down her guard against Tang Feng.”
Fu Zhengzheng sighs, “She is always alert, but the environment is too complicated. By the way, she said she saw Tang Feng receive some cargo last night. He was very cautious. Was it…”
“That’s the first batch of cargo that Tang Feng has shipped for Weihan Group.”
“Oh.” Fu Zhengzheng comes to understand suddenly, “It’s the first time for them to cooperate with Siqi. No wonder they were so careful.”
“Yang Tao, what do you think Tang Feng is like?”
“He is a ruffian and has wild ambitions. He used to be a hooligan. One year ago, he rescued Xiao Jinchong by accident and then began to follow him. Xiao Jinchong gave him some chances, and he performed well. When Xiao Jinchong planned to develop a new market in B City, he volunteered to come here. It’s said that Xiao Jinchong once promised him that so long as he could get all docks in B City and obtain the business contact with Weihan Group, he would become second in command of Brotherhood.”
No wonder he spares no effort to flatter Siqi. It turns out that he is eager to become second in command of Brotherhood.
“But Zhengzheng, please warn Siqi not to be fooled by the small profit given by Tang Feng.”
“I know. I will warn him again.” Then, Lu Song calls her. She says goodbye to Yang Tao and then answers Lu Song’s call.
“Madam, something happened to Mr. Han!”
