Chapter 119 - Surprise
Nan Zhi opened her eyes slowly. However, all she could see was still only black.
Her eyes seemed to be covered by something.
She felt around. She seemed to have been left on a soft sofa. Nan Zhi’s heartbeat sped up. She lifted her hand, wanting to remove the thing that was covering her eyes.
However, someone grabbed her arm before she could touch the cloth covering her eyes.
She was pulled up from the sofa quickly.
Nan Zhi’s face paled. She did not think that someone would be so daring to kidnap her at the broadcasting company.
Who did she offend when she had only just returned to the country?
Was it Bo Shaoxiu?
Did he find out about what happened that night?
“Who are you? What do you want?”
“Ha.” the man holding both of her hands behind her laughed lowly. Although Nan Zhi could not see, she could sense that the man was rather tall and gave off a domineering aura that was impossible to ignore.
It was strong and cold.
Nan Zhi’s heart skipped a beat.
The man leaned down and pressed his lips by her ears, though it seemed like he was touching her but was not at the same time. His breath tickled her ear with a scorching temperature. It was both dangerous and chilling.
Goosebumps crawled all over Nan Zhi’s body. Her lips trembled as she said with a little anger, “Mu Sihan!”
Her earlobe was bitten hard by someone the moment she spoke.
“No fun. You managed to guess so quickly.” the man removed the silk cloth covering her eyes. A large palm moved to cover her eyes instead, as his voice asked ominously, “Brat, are you ready?”
A tender voice came out in the quietness, “Very soon! You let go of Pretty Zhizhi after I count to three.”
Nan Zhi’s heart skipped another beat.
Why was Nan Xiaojie also part of kidnapping her here?
This little cheeky one. He always seemed to dig a hole for his mother to step into, she swore he had become naughty after he met Mu Sihan.
“One, two, three… Okay!”
Mu Sihan removed his large hand that was covering Nan Zhi’s eyes. Nan Zhi could not get a clear glimpse of what was happening around her after she regained her sight and a loud bang rang suddenly. Colorful confetti blasted towards her.
Xiaojie was holding a bouquet of lilies and ran up to her, holding them up to Nan Zhi. A blinding smile lit up his adorable face. “Pretty Zhizhi, happy birthday!”
Nan Zhi stared at the little boy who was dressed very formally today. He was wearing a white shirt with a black suit and even had a small bow tie around his neck. Together with his facial features that looked like they were carved out masterfully by a sculptor, he look exactly like a little prince from the middle ages.
He was so cute!
It was a good thing he belonged to her!
Warmth flooded into Nan Zhi’s eyes as she took the flower bouquet from Xiaojie. She squatted and placed a kiss on Xiaojie’s forehead. “Thank you, baby.”
Nan Zhi looked up at her surroundings. It was only then that she realized she was in a huge and luxurious ballroom.
The ballroom could accommodate up to a hundred people. There was an exquisitely decorated stage at the front. The large screen started to play photos that Xiaojie usually secretly took of her the moment she looked over.
There were photos when she was happy, when she furrowed her eyebrows, when she was angry… There was every type of emotion and there was a strange sense of unflattering ugliness about the photo angle that kids took.
Nan Zhi was touched yet resigned.
She covered her own eyes and cringed when she saw a photo of her sleeping on the table when she was too exhausted from work. Her mouth was slightly open and she seemed to be drooling saliva.
The man’s evil voice rang in her ears. “Although you’re very ugly in it, it’s authentic.”
Nan Zhi glared at the man with slightly red ears. It was only then that she realized that he was also dressed rather formally, like he had arrived from a certain banquet. He was wearing an expensive black suit, with a white shirt underneath. He also wore a vest and a tie. There was a square handkerchief folded and placed in the left pocket of his suit jacket. He looked noble and elegant.
Under his black short hair, his well-defined face was handsome and deep. Every part of his face matched perfectly together with the rest.
