Chapter 211 This is how a rich woman pursues a woman.

Port City.

Mu Lin immediately told Xie Nanzhi that Wei Chizheng had arrived in Gangcheng, but then he hesitated and added, "Um... Mu Jiaojiao came along too."

It was visibly that Xie Nanzhi's eyes turned colder, but fortunately, she remained relatively calm. "I guessed it; she would definitely come along."

Mu Lin took a deep breath and thought to himself, "Second Master is really something, how did he end up with Mu Jiaojiao?"

Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

Mu Lin muttered to himself, and Xie Nanzhi added, "Find a way to buy me the apartment next to Wei Chizheng's, and also the nearest gym."

Mu Lin's eyes widened in disbelief; even a copper bell couldn't have captured them.

After a moment, Mu Lin finally recovered. "So this is what it feels like for a rich woman to pursue a man. Sister-in-law, you've really broadened my horizons."

Xie Nanzhi doesn't care about money; she's just trying to create opportunities for herself as much as possible.

Xie Nanzhi glanced at him and said, "Hurry up and do it, stop nagging."

Mu Lin's smile stretched to his ears. "Alright, I'll get right on it."

Upon arriving in Hong Kong, Wei Chizheng checked into an apartment arranged by headquarters. This time, he came to Hong Kong from Country Y to develop the branch company, and headquarters also arranged several people to assist him.

After a long flight of more than ten hours, Mu Jiaojiao was exhausted. She changed her clothes and went to the bedroom to rest without even having time to unpack her things.

As for Wei Chizheng, he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, dozens of meters high, overlooking the prosperity of the entire port city.

He felt a real sense of familiarity here. What connection did he have with Hong Kong three years ago? In any case, it was definitely not as simple as the trip Mu Jiaojiao had described.

They hadn't prepared any ingredients and planned to eat out for dinner. Mu Jiaojiao had rested enough before the two of them set off.

Gangcheng Restaurant.

Huang Yaozu served Xie Nanzhi a bowl of coconut chicken and gently placed it beside her. At this moment, Xie Nanzhi also finished replying to the email.

She casually said, "Thank you."

Huang Yaozu leaned back gently, his hands crossed over his chest. "Nanzhi, you're working so hard, what are we men supposed to do?"

Although they couldn't be lovers, Xie Nanzhi considered Huang Yaozu a friend.

She put down her phone, smiled, and said, "I'll just have to deal with it."

She has a certain energy that other women don't have, and Huang Yaozu truly admires it.

Huang Yaozu looked her over and said, "Nanzhi, thank you so much this time. You've done me a great favor. If there's anything I can do to help you next time, just let me know."

Over the past three years, Xie Nanzhi has made steady progress, and Huang Yaozu has helped her a great deal. Therefore, when Huang Yaozu asked her for help, she agreed without hesitation.

"It was nothing, don't mention it."

"That's great! I wish you would agree this readily if you were my girlfriend."

Xie Nanzhi grinned, making Huang Yaozu laugh.

Huang Yaozu: "Alright, I'll stop teasing you. By the way, have you heard about Cui Yong's situation?"

Xie Nanzhi was about to drink her chicken soup when she heard Cui Yong's name. She put down her spoon and asked, "What happened to Cui Yong?"

Huang Yaozu gossiped, "The real estate market has been declining for the past two years, and Cui Yong's business is not doing well either. He has also become addicted to gambling, and he has lost most of the money in his family. I heard this from a friend. His wife was beaten by him and was hospitalized. She almost died."

Isn't Cui Yong's wife Luo Meijuan?

I thought she was living a very comfortable life, but it turns out she's having a terrible time.

Xie Yuanyang probably knew this too, but he just didn't tell her.

Xie Nanzhi picked up the spoon and sipped the chicken soup, but her mind was elsewhere, and she seemed absent-minded.

Before I knew it, the soup from the spoon had spilled out.

Seeing this, Huang Yaozu immediately took out a tissue to wipe her face.

Meanwhile, new customers arrived at the restaurant.

Wei Chizheng spotted Xie Nanzhi immediately, as well as Huang Yaozu, who was trying to curry favor with him.

Mu Jiaojiao became smug, having been wondering how to slander this bitch, and the opportunity presented itself. She feigned surprise, "Isn't that Miss Nan?"

He's not blind; he can see.

He had absolutely no relationship with this woman, not even as friends, so why did seeing this scene feel so jarring?

Wei Chizheng grunted in response, without even turning his gaze away.

Mu Jiaojiao seized the opportunity to say, "Steven, I'm not trying to slander her, but she has always liked to seduce men for her own use. She seduced you in the Middle East, and now that she's back in Hong Kong, she's starting to seduce other men. How could a woman like that be a good woman?"

Mu Jiaojiao took Wei Chizheng's arm and said sweetly, "Steven, why don't we go somewhere else to eat, so as not to spoil the mood?"

This time, Wei Chizheng did not refuse and turned around to leave the restaurant with Mu Jiaojiao.

Xie Nanzhi didn't see the two of them, but noticing Huang Yaozu's intimacy, she immediately refused, saying, "I can do it myself."

Xie Nanzhi took the tissue from Huang Yaozu and gently wiped her face, cleaning up the stains on her collar as well. When she looked up again, the person at the door had already left.

Xie Nanzhi straightened her collar and said softly, "It's getting late, I'm leaving."

Huang Yaozu stood up. "I'll see you out."

Xie Nanzhi casually picked up her bag and laughed, "No need, you're not going that way anyway. Besides, we've known each other for so many years, no matter how attentive you are, my heart of stone remains unmoved, there's no need."

Xie Nanzhi joked, and Huang Yaozu smiled knowingly, "What can I say about you?"

Xie Nanzhi said, "Then I won't say anymore. I have things to do tonight. I'm leaving now. See you later."

Xie Nanzhi walked quickly, hadn't been drinking, and didn't need a designated driver. Once in the car and fastened her seatbelt, she drove away.

Huang Yaozu waved goodbye to her with one hand in his pocket. After a while, watching the car drive away, he smiled with relief.

I'm afraid I'll never be her man in this lifetime, but being friends is better than being strangers.

Xie Nanzhi didn't go home; instead, she went to the new apartment that Mu Lin had bought for her.

She video-chatted with her two children for a while before going to sleep.

After hanging up the phone, a message from Xibei popped up.

[Nanzhi, aren't you torturing yourself? What if the soundproofing isn't good and you hear them having sex in the middle of the night? Aren't you just making yourself miserable? Can you please stop acting like a pervert?]

Xie Nanzhi stared at the words on the screen, her brows furrowing slightly.

She didn't reply for a long time. After a while, Xie Nanzhi lit a cigarette, took her phone, and went to the balcony.

The night wind was a bit chilly, blowing her long, black hair. She looked into the distance with a deep gaze, the cigarette in her hand getting shorter and shorter. She took another deep drag and exhaled a long cigarette.

Xie Nanzhi glanced to the side and paused, meeting the eyes of the man who was also standing on the terrace.

As the thin smoke dissipated, the man's face was clearly imprinted in his pupils, as if a single glance could last an eternity.

Xie Nanzhi smiled, tilting her head and letting the cold wind blow on her face.

Just then, Xie Nanzhi's phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Wei Chizheng.

Don't tell me it's such a coincidence that you live next door.

Xie Nanzhi also became interested and replied, "Come here, and I'll tell you."

It was originally a joke, and she had even thought he might get angry, but to her surprise, Wei Chizheng replied, "Okay."
