"Missus, where are you going? I'll drive you there," the driver, Lin Lan, asked Ji Aier as she walked out.
"No, I can take a taxi myself. Thank you," Ji Aier smiled at the driver, Lin Lan. She was still thinking about where to find a place to stay later. Raymond had just left her with Ji En, and now she didn't even have a place to stay.
"Missus, this is a special instruction from the master. No matter where you go, I'm in charge of driving you there," Lin Lan said with an embarrassed expression.
"Then I'll just talk to Ji En directly. I won't make things difficult for you," Ji Aier said to Lin Lan, then picked up her phone and dialed Ji En's phone number.
"You have no right to interfere with my freedom!" Ji Aier said as soon as the call was connected.
"Who is this?" Huang Xin, Ji En's new secretary, asked in confusion. This was the first time she had received such a strange call.
"Sorry! I thought it was Ji En. Is he there?" When Ji Aier heard a female voice, she suddenly felt a bit embarrassed. She had blurted out such a sentence without even figuring out the situation: "You have no right to interfere with my freedom!" People who didn't know might think there was something wrong with her mental state.
"Who are you? Do you have an appointment?" Huang Xin still insisted on knowing the caller's identity. Otherwise, she didn't dare to transfer the call because this phone number wasn't among the numbers that didn't require an appointment.
"My name is Ji Aier, and I don't have an appointment," Ji Aier felt extremely frustrated for the first time. It was so difficult to call the company. She should have just dialed his mobile phone number earlier.
"May I ask what you want to talk to our president about?" Without an appointment, Huang Xin had to screen again whether she should transfer the call.
"I have some personal matters to deal with. Please help me transfer the call," Ji Aier saw Lin Lan suppressing a laugh beside her, and she was on the verge of a breakdown.
"Sorry, the president is in a meeting now and is not available to answer personal calls. Please leave a message. I'll convey it to him after the meeting," Huang Xin said.
"Never mind!" Ji Aier was completely defeated. She hung up the phone and looked at Lin Lan with a depressed expression. "It's so difficult to even make a phone call!"
"Missus, you can directly call the master's mobile phone," Lin Lan reminded her.
"He's in a meeting now. Forget it. Just drive me around for a while," Ji Aier said to Lin Lan. She felt that she had lost her freedom now.
"Yes, Missus," Lin Lan replied.
The car quickly stopped beside Ji Aier. It was a new car, which reminded Ji Aier of the first car that Ji En had driven. They were both silver-gray.
"You just wait for me here. I'll go up and take a look and come down later."
"Missus, the master has instructed me to carry your things when you go shopping," Lin Lan turned to Ji Aier and said.
"I'm not going to buy anything. And please don't call me Missus in the future," Ji Aier tried to get out of the car but found that the car door couldn't be opened. It was locked by the central control.
"The master has instructed me to follow you throughout to ensure your safety."
"Don't mention your master in front of me in the future, and I'm not your Missus! He has no right to interfere with my freedom!" Ji Aier said excitedly.
"Sorry, Missus. We're just following the master's instructions. We don't mean to make things difficult for you," Lin Lan explained.
"I understand," Ji Aier had no choice but to take out her phone and dial Ji En's mobile phone number.
This time, Ji En answered the phone. After confirming it was him, Ji Aier said angrily and loudly,
"Don't tell them to call me Missus; don't tell them to pick me up and drop me off when I go out; don't tell them to follow me wherever I go! I'm not your slave!" Ji Aier shouted into the phone.
"You are my wife," Ji En said calmly, not affected at all.
"The person who went to the church with you is surnamed Ouyang, not me," Ji Aier said very angrily. Just thinking about the scene she saw yesterday afternoon, how dare he say she was his wife!
