Chapter 147 Out With Chuanli
As the cool evening weather blew gentle breeze, the leaves on the branches on different trees, danced in tune with it.
Peeping through her window while putting on powder on her face using a makeup brush, Zhang Liling sighed to herself as she made a mental note.
"It looks like it's going to rain today." She said and finally took her gaze off the the window and dabbed some powder in it, before brushing her cheeks with it.
After putting on the powder, she added another layer of red lipstick on her lips. Glancing at her face in the mirror, she smacked her lips, and winked.
"I looook hot,"
Staring at her refelction in the mirror got her high. Seeing how beautiful she looked, made her happy.
Zhang Liling proceeded to put on her round gold earrings before packing her makeup brushes and items away.
Getting into her short black stilletos, she picked up her black purse from the bed, and left the room.
With her heels striking against the tiled floor along the hallway, it was hard for one's attention to not be drawn to her.
Meeting her along the hallway dressed in that attention-grabbing dress, the housekeeper's mouth flew open as her eyes widened in surprise.
Zhang Liling noticed her surprise and flashed her a smooth wink as the corner of her lips turned up in a smile.
"Miss Zhang, are you leaving now?" Ms. Chu managed to ask when she got close to her side.
"Yes, is anything the matter?" Zhang Liling asked in a soft tone.
Mr. Fang had already left for his date half an hour ago, so Zhang Liling didn't have to report where she was going to him.
Since she had to at least let someone in the house know where she was going, she told the butler and the housekeeper about it.
Ms. Chu waved her hand in front of her and denied her question. "No, it's nothing." Then she watched her trottle her way to the end of the hallway before turning to a corner and disappearing from her sight.
The more Zhang Liling thought about the housekeeper's reaction to her outfit, the more she smiled.
"Ms. Chu, very soon, you won't be shocked anymore."
That sounded like a promise coming from her.
At the entrance, she met the butler who glanced at her with a brief surprise before saying to her, "Miss Zhang, don't drink anything apart from water today. It won't be long before Mr. Fang loses his tolerance toward you."
That kind reminder from the old man, made Zhang Liling to smile at him. She even gave him a small nod before leaving through the entrance.
Sighing to himself, the old man closed the door before walking straight to the living room where he almost collided with the housekeeper.
"Mr. Gu, is Miss Zhang really a servant of this house?" The woman asked with her gaze at the entrance before shifting it to him.
Butler Gu was not baffled by the question, but instead glanced towards the entrance to see the tightly shut doors before glancing back at the middle aged lady.
"I don't know anymore," He said and turned to leave.
Even he didn't know if Zhang Liling had a hidden identity, and was not really a servant.
She gets into a lot of trouble and goes out to party, these were not the attributes and actions of a servant should look like.
He was beginning to think that there was more to her relationship with Mr. Fang that meets the eye. But whatever it was, he would accept it. Afterall he was just a servant.
Zhang Liling made her way towards the gate in her heels. Halfway to the gate, Chuanli drove in wih his sportscar.
Seeing him, she sighed in relief and helped herself into the front passenger seat of the car.
"Dr. Li, I thought my legs would break before you finally came." She said while grabbing the seatbelt to strap it in.
Chuanli stared at her with a smile. He could see the effort she made with her looks.
Feeling his gaze on her, Zhang Liling strapped her seatbelt before shifting her gaze to him. "Is my makeup bad? Is it a little too much?" She asked.
Chuanli shook his head and gave off a low chuckle and proceeded to turn the car around before driving out through the gates.
"You are the kind of woman Bingwen has to marry. At least, you are not boring, and you will do a good job with lightening his mood."
"You think so?" Zhang Liling asked as a small smile sprang up on her face.
Chaunli who was dressed in a printed shirt and black jeans, smiled.
"Of course! Miss Zhang, do you think I would say thrash to make you smile? I am not the kind of person. If I didn't think you and Bingwen would make a perfect couple, I wouldn't bother getting close to you, and trying to help out."
"Then I should count myself lucky!" Zhang Liling muttered under her breath.
As their car hit the main road, Chuanli asked, "Do you have any special requests?"
"I would follow your lead if you have anything planned out. Let for me, I would just sit at a table where Mr. Fang would have eyes on me and order dinner."
"That won't be a bad idea. I think we would do that, but there has to be a twist now." Chuanli said as a smirk appeared at the corner of his lips.
"What kind of twist?" Zhang Liling asked curiously with her eyes on him.
"Wait and see..."
The more Chuanli thought of the kind of look that would be on Fang Bingwen's face when he sees them dining together, the more he was itching to play more tricks.
But guessing that more tricks may have a different outcome, he stopped his train of thoughts as he wouldn't want to ruin things for the lady beside him.
Fifteen minutes later, their car pulled over in front of a popular and expensive hotel.
Glancing through the side of her window, Zhang Liling asked in surprise, "Is Mr. Fang really dining here?"
