Chapter 258: Chapter 263 Meng Ping’s Phone Call
Sheng Ning felt her heart stirred again, the palpitations were so sweet they could dissipate any gloom.
“I’m not ready yet!” she said, though her heart didn’t match her words. How she wished Xu Qigang could be right in front of her now, so she wouldn’t be so passively charmed by him.
What was even more infuriating was that this guy must have been wearing a serious expression.
In short, it was not that he was deliberately flirting; everything he said and did was with genuine sincerity!
A serious man is indeed the most charming.
Regarding her saying one thing but feeling another, Xu Qigang didn’t speak. Once he was committed to something, it was for a lifetime, and he would never change.
Sheng Ning was his, Xu Qigang’s woman, and could only ever be his. He would never give anyone else a chance.
“I’ll be back tomorrow night, wait for me!” Having said that, Xu Qigang hung up the phone!
Sheng Ning stared blankly at the phone emitting a busy tone, lost in thought. Her originally anxious and painful mood miraculously improved a lot.
“Xu Qigang, in this lifetime, you can only be my man, Sheng Ning. No one else but me can even think of marrying you, not even a glance is allowed!” She waved her hands in the air, then spiritedly ran out of the transmission room.
An old man who was patrolling passed by her, “Comrade, it’s not yet time for you to leave, is it?”
“The call was over,” Sheng Ning waved and ran even faster.
It was cold, and running made her feel a bit warmer.
“Strange, wasn’t it said to be half an hour?” The old man muttered to himself as he walked into the transmission room, just as the phone rang. “Hello! Who are you looking for?”
“I’m looking for Comrade Sheng Ning from the Song and Dance Troupe!” A pleasant male voice came from the phone.
“Didn’t you just call?” the old man grew more confused, “Why are you calling again?”
Meng Ping on the other end of the phone was so angry he almost smashed it, “Old man!” he said irritably: “This is the third time I’m calling today. The first time you didn’t find her, the second time you said she would be right back, and now this is the third time. Are you playing with me?”
This tone and way of speaking were uniquely Meng Ping’s, truly one of a kind.
Even the old man in the General Union’s transmission room had heard of Meng Ping!
“Yo! It’s Meng Ping!” The old man wasn’t annoyed and continued, “Comrade Sheng Ning just picked up a call and left! Wasn’t it you?”
“Damn it!” Meng Ping kicked a stool in front of him. It must have been someone else; some bastard thinks he’s got too long a life, right?
Daring to compete with him for a person? Cutting off his, Meng Ping’s, path?
“Comrade, you’re young, don’t swear. How can you join the union with that attitude?” the old man lectured.
“I never want to join the union!” Meng Ping said irritably, “Old man, do you know who just called Comrade Sheng Ning?”
“How would I know? I just went out!”
“Fine! I understand!” Meng Ping hung up the phone, gloomily. He was in Hong Kong, busy discussing business dealings.
He had come this time prepared to make a big impact, filled with confidence. But now he felt inexplicably irritable, as if there was some lurking danger or as if he was about to lose something important.
And it was something very important to him.
He didn’t know that since his elder brother died, if there was still anything important to him.
Meanwhile, Xu Qigang, having hung up the phone, also fell into silence.
His strong hand holding the phone tightened unconsciously, almost crushing the handset.
He had been prepared to wait when making this call, but why had Xiao Ning picked up so quickly?
Even if one ran from the dormitory to the transmission room, it would take half an hour, and calling someone over and back would take at least an hour.
Xu Qigang’s dark brows were slightly furrowed, his handsome face wearing a hint of menace.
His woman, he did not want to see that man chasing her relentlessly.
