Chapter 101 - Hostility
Two rows of uniformed servants stood in an orderly fashion by the door.
Nan Zhi stood at the end, beside her was a girl about the same age as her. The girl said to Nan Zhi in a low voice, “Miss Ye is the granddaughter-in-law the Old Madam has picked out. She is the young lady of Ning City’s richest family, the Ye family. She is currently helping her father manage Ye Corporation after she came back from studying abroad and is a well-known career woman in the workplace…”
Nan Zhi nodded to show that she already knew this.
That man was so shameless and perverted to have humiliated and tortured her that night when he clearly had a fiancee. Despicable.
The click-clack sound of high heels on the ground could be heard before a slender figure entered her view.
A woman stepped in wearing a formal, white waist-hugging suit and a narrow skirt of the same color, showing off her long and slender legs. She had long straight black hair that hung on both sides, adding a touch of coolness to her.
Nan Zhi had heard of this Miss Ye before she went abroad. She was born into a prominent family with an outstanding appearance. She was the goddess of many talented and handsome young men in Ning City.
But this aloof beauty was famous for being difficult to court.
Nan Zhi did not expect that the type Miss Ye liked would be Mu Sihan, a narcissistic person with such a flawed personality.
Each to their own.
Nan Zhi was immersed in her thoughts and did not notice that all the servants had bent over when Ye Qianqian came in. She was the only one standing upright.
Nan Zhi was wearing a standard uniform comprising a white shirt and knee-length skirt that Yi Fan had given her. She had tied her hair up in a ponytail with no makeup on her face. She was fair and beautiful, her quiet and calm temperament, along with her stunning countenance, made her look not like a maid at all, but more like the lady of the house.
Nan Zhi did not notice that Ye Qianqian’s face changed when she saw her.
“Are you a new servant?” Ye Qianqian stood in front of Nan Zhi, pushing the sunglasses on her nose to the top of her head and looked at the unfamiliar woman coldly.
Nan Zhi thought of that contract she had signed. She nodded. “Yes.”
“Bring my luggage up for me.”
Nan Zhi did not argue with Ye Qianqian. If Ye Qianqian was going to be the future lady of this house, it was best that she did not have any conflict with her.
Although the contract clearly stated that she only had to listen to Mu Sihan’s orders, she didn’t want to tempt fate and cause more trouble.
Nan Zhi, carrying Ye Qianqian’s suitcase, followed her to the second floor.
When they were in front of the master’s bedroom, Ye Qianqian wanted to go in. Auntie Yu stammered, “M-Miss Ye, Young Master doesn’t like others going into his bedroom…”
Ye Qianqian interrupted Auntie Yu impatiently, a glint of coldness flashed past her eyes. “Am I an outsider? I will soon be the mistress of this house.”
“… Yes.” Auntie Yu opened the door to the master’s bedroom for Ye Qianqian.
Nan Zhi brought the luggage in and Ye Qianqian ordered. “Hang up the clothes in the suitcase and put them into the closet.”
Nan Zhi opened the suitcase to hang the clothes for Ye Qianqian when she saw a box of condoms inside. She felt uncomfortable when she thought of how the man had scolded her for being easy and then how he had recklessly humiliated her body.
She had originally thought he was abstinent, but in the end, he was no different from those playboys.
But this was also good for her, since he had Ye Qianqian, he would not take advantage of her frivolously anymore.
Ye Qianqian observed Nan Zhi carefully when she was sorting out her clothes. Seeing Nan Zhi having no strange look when she saw the box of condoms, Ye Qianqian’s uneasy feeling relaxed.
…
It was already evening when Mu Sihan finished his work. Lan Yanzhi had invited him to have drinks at the clubhouse tonight, but Mu Sihan declined.
He was much more interested in going back to the manor than having drinks.
But after receiving a call from the Old Madam, his face darkened.
