Chapter 423: Collecting The Interest

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lu Qing rushed to the drawer and knelt down at once. She could not think about the pain in her knees and opened the drawer quickly.

Seeing the empty drawer, her head went blank immediately. How come everything is gone?!

There were her deed, debit card, jewelry, watch, ID, and passport. Everything related to money.

Last night, when they were in the middle of sex, He Hui asked what she put in the drawer. She was not willing to tell him in the beginning but could not resist after his persistence. Eventually, she told him.

They were going to be a family sooner or later. Towards the end, she was so tired that she told him where the keys were.

But who would have guessed, the next morning everything changed? He Hui was gone and so was her stuff.

Did Hui betray her?

No way. She was so good to him and listened to him about everything. Plus, he loved her so much. How could he betray her?

Did Hui run into some kind of trouble?

Lu Qing thought of this possibility and went directly to her phone.

She remembered she put her phone on the side table next to the bed. But she looked everywhere and still could not find it.

Lu Qing threw everything on the bed to the ground suddenly and shouted out loud. “Ah!” Then her body became soft and she sat on the floor. She complained, “Why, why did you treat me like this?” As she spoke, she wrapped her hands around her head and started crying out loudly.

In the airport in S City, Xia Ning and Zheng Ziming arrived around noon. She pushed Zheng Ziming out and there were already reporters outside. She had arranged people to pick them up earlier, so the reporters were blocked to the side.

There was a car waiting in front of the airport already.

“Miss Asteria. Young Master Zheng,” the chauffeur got out of the car and said to Xia Ning and Zheng Ziming with respect.

Xia Ning nodded and helped Zheng Ziming to get in the car. She then followed in.

The chauffeur put away the wheelchair and drove off.

“Ah, the air in S City is better,” Zheng Ziming sat in the car and said to himself with a face full of hope.

Xia Ning darted a look at him. “If we really look at the air quality, it should be K City that has better air.”

“You don’t understand. No matter how good it is outside, home is always the best!” Zheng Ziming looked at Xia Ning with disdain. But after he said that, he regretted. He observed Xia Ning’s face and saw her undisturbed. “Sorry, I didn’t mean it,” he said in a low voice.

Xia Ning raised her eyebrows and looked at Zheng Ziming. “You are right. No matter how good it is outside, nothing is better than home.”

Zheng Ziming looked at Xia Ning’s dark eyes and did not know what to say for the moment.

Asteria grew up in another country but this S City was her hometown as well. However, this place did not give her any good memories.

“What did you really come back here for?” Zheng Ziming said suddenly. “Don’t tell me you are just here to send me home. I won’t buy that.”

“Even if you don’t believe it, you still let me come back.” Xia Ning curled her lips and stared at Zheng Ziming. “You believe me deep in your heart!”

Zheng Ziming looked at her helplessly. “Who else can I believe if not you? But I don’t want you to hide anything from me.”

Xia Ning nodded. “I know.” She looked to the front and continued. “There’s nothing to hide from you. You know I am very vengeful. Whoever hurts me, I will repay them with double the pain. Whoever hurts my family, I will repay with ten times, a hundred times the pain. I’m just here to collect the interest.”

Seeing Xia Ning’s cold face from the side, Zheng Ziming looked soft for a second. Yeah, that’s her way and that’s where her charm lies. Sometimes, she was so determined that she did not feel like a girl and so cold and mature that she did not feel the same age as him.

That’s why she was destined to achieve what he would not be able to achieve all his life!
