Chapter 240 Pleading
Zhong Nianyao frowned, then said, "Can you describe what the Ling Chao you know looks like?"
Zhang Jing was a little confused, but she still described Ling Chao's appearance in detail.
After listening to Zhang Jing's words, a hint of understanding flashed in Zhong Nianyao's eyes.
It turned out to be the Ling Chao she knew. Before, she only thought that Ling Chao was a selfish person, but she didn't expect that he was responsible for a life!
When she had asked the Pen Fairy before, she had not paid much attention to Ling Chao, otherwise she would have seen a life debt on Ling Chao.
"Master, what's wrong?"
Seeing Zhong Nianyao's expression, Zhang Jing felt a little uneasy, wondering if something had happened.
"Nothing, it's just..." Zhong Nianyao smiled brightly at Zhang Jing, then said, "I also know the Ling Chao you mentioned."
"What?" Zhang Jing was shocked, then worried, "Then you—"
What she was most worried about now was that Zhong Nianyao had a good relationship with Ling Chao and would stand on Ling Chao's side. If that was really the case, then it would be difficult for her to seek justice.
She had seen Zhong Nianyao's strength. Furthermore, beside her was Lu Yichen, whose depth was unclear. No matter how she looked at it, he was not someone she could afford to provoke.
However, she had been hurt so badly by Ling Chao that it was absolutely impossible for her to just let it go. If Zhong Nianyao really wanted to stand on Ling Chao's side, then even if it meant her soul would be shattered, she would definitely drag the beast Ling Chao down with her to hell.
Looking at Zhang Jing's unpredictable expression, Zhong Nianyao knew what she was thinking without having to guess. She felt a little speechless. "You don't need to have too much imagination. Ling Chao and I only met once. So, no matter how you want to take revenge, I will not stop you."
After hearing Zhong Nianyao's words, Zhang Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief. If she wasn't in a ghostly state, cold sweat would have covered her entire back by now.
"Okay," Zhong Nianyao waved her hand, "You can disappear first! It's quite late, and I need to rest too."
The next day, Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao did not go to the gambling stone market again, but went to visit those famous scenic spots.
After a day of sightseeing, Zhong Nianyao still felt a little reluctant to leave. However, she was a little tired, so she returned to the hotel to rest.
Looking at the somewhat tired Zhong Nianyao, Lu Yichen's eyes flashed with helplessness, "Your vacation is still long. If you like, we can stay here for a few more days. There is no need to rush to see all the attractions."
"I'm not in a rush, okay?" Zhong Nianyao shook her head with amusement, "It's just that I'm a little rushed today."
"Okay, okay, as long as you like it."
When facing Zhong Nianyao, Lu Yichen always had a good temper. "So, are we going to continue sightseeing tomorrow? Or do you want to go to the gambling stone market?"
"Let's continue playing tomorrow!" Zhong Nianyao was quite excited. "Then we can visit more attractions. The attractions here are really different from those in our country."
She is really interested in these things.
When she was in Li Kingdom, the place she spent most of her time was the Imperial Master's Hall. Since arriving in the modern world, she had never left the country. The only time she'd been on a trip was when she followed Lu Yichen to visit a tomb. And that trip wasn't really a trip at all. They were rushing the entire way, and when they arrived, they went straight to the tomb. After everything was settled, they went straight home. It was truly a rush.
Looking at Zhong Nianyao's excited look, the smile on Lu Yichen's face became more genuine.
Zhong Nianyao looked up and saw the smile on Lu Yichen's face and his deep eyes, which seemed to be emitting some emotions that she could not understand.
For a moment, she didn't know why, but she felt a little confused.
Lu Yichen was always paying attention to Zhong Nianyao, so he naturally noticed her behavior the first time. A hint of excitement flashed through his heart, and at the same time, his eyes became even darker.
He had always been restraining himself, trying to make things happen step by step. However, only he knew that deep down in his heart, there was a mad beast imprisoned. Zhong Nianyao held the key. If one day Zhong Nianyao fell in love with someone else, the beast would burst out and tear apart all his rationality.
Now that he saw that Zhong Nianyao seemed to have responded a little, one could imagine how happy he was inside.
For Lu Yichen, this moment was the most beautiful. He wished time would stop at this moment. However, someone was so ungrateful that he ruined this beautiful moment.
"Miss, please help me! I really can't lose this job!"
A figure walked quickly to Zhong Nian Yao and knelt down.
Such a sudden change immediately woke Zhong Nian Yao up from her thoughts. She withdrew her gaze in a panic, and then looked at the person who suddenly knelt in front of her calmly.
This person was none other than the rude receptionist from the day before.
Being suddenly interrupted like this, Lu Yichen's face suddenly darkened. If his eyes were cold when he saw the receptionist yesterday, then the look he gave her now was like looking at a dead person, so cold and devoid of any warmth.
It seemed that if he could, he would immediately deal with the person who destroyed his relationship with Zhong Nian Yao.
"You get up first." Zhong Nianyao looked at the person kneeling in front of her, frowning and looking unhappy. "Also, you're blocking my way like this."
"Miss, please help me!" The receptionist was still kneeling there, and when she looked at Zhong Nianyao, her face was full of sincere pleading. "Now the manager wants to fire me, and only you can help me. Just think of it as a good deed and say a few good words for me to our manager! You are a guest in the presidential suite, he will definitely give you this face."
After being reprimanded by her manager yesterday, she received a dismissal notice when she returned. Although she had suspected this, she still found it difficult to accept when she actually received the notice.
She had gone through so much hardship to get a job at this five-star hotel. But now, she was fired for a trivial matter. She couldn't accept it. Moreover, the salary here was so good that it would be difficult for her to find such a good job after leaving.
