Chapter 9:

The morning sunlight streamed through the curtain, bird chirping outside.

As Zhenya groggily reached for her phone only to grab nothing but empty sheet. Heart sinking with realization. Her phone wasn't there

A sudden memory flashed in her mind. Last night! Yes last night, car , the rush to get out . Did she .... Leave it there?!

Yes it's last night!

Panic creeping in , she quickly go to living room and grab her mom's phone and dialed her number. She held her Breath.

One ring!

Two!!

Then , a deep familiar voice answered

"Hello?"

Her heart skipped a beat. Yuan Zi!

"Hello, Yuan Zi? I left my phone yesterday in your car . Could you send it to me?

"Okay, I'll send driver to pick you up. " After saying that he hung up.

Zhenya get ready and said to her mom

"Mom , I'm going out."

" Okay"

A sleek black car rolled to a smooth stop Infront of the house. Inside driver wait patiently, unlocked the backdoor. Zhenya get in and driver start driving to the destined place .

Car stop Infront of a 5 Star restaurant. It's too much expensive for Zhenya. She never come to a place like this.

As she stepped into restaurant warm aroma of spices and freshly cooked warp around her. Just as she took another step a sudden impact jolted her back.

"Ah , sorry!" He said

When she turned and saw a familiar face.

"You?" She said

"Didn't expect you to see here" he said , voice very smooth face unreadable.

She offered a small polite smile

" Me neither" replied her voice is steady hide hint of surprise ..

" I don't know your name yet, what's your name?" He said

"I'm Ning Zhenya"

" You can call me Li Wei"

Not far away Yuan Zi wonder why she is taking so much time. So he come for looking after her . And his eyes caught her talking with another man . There is strange frustrated feeling in his heart. Watching her laughing and talking with smile.

Zhenya looking at watch and realized Yuan Zi is waiting for her.

" Li Wei, I've to go now, bye"

Just as she turned to leave his voice stopped her.

"Wait"

She glance back.

" Your number? I think we should stay in touch" , he said smoothly

'' I left my phone in my friend's car"

" Oh ! " Then he give her his business card.

" This is my number "

She took it give smile in return and go to the room Yuan Zi booked in the restaurant.

Li Wei watches as Zhenya walk away. A small smile tugged at his lips subtle , almost involuntary.

Zhenya come and saw Yuan Zi is sitting waiting for her.

"Um, well.... My phone", she said while sitting on chair.

He gives her phone.
