Chapter 208 Take your time

"Ahhh—!! For a short amount of time, we sure did a lot of damage to our bank cards.
"
Zhao Ya'Er spoke as she sat down on a bench. Setting her things by her side, she sighed in exhaustion.
"Mm, I agree.
"
Yue Ling chuckles and sits down too. Looking Zhao Ya'Er, she felt very happy inside. She looks down at her things and she smiles faintly. It's been a long time since she did this much shopping.
Hana is her best friend, however, Hana's way of spending money is different from Zhao Ya'Er's. It's nice to meet someone like this. Especially one who actually spends her own money and not try to use someone else's.
"Should we go have lunch?
"
Zhao Ya'Er asks and points to a restaurant nearby. After their intense shopping, she is very hungry. Not only that, she didn't get to eat breakfast.
"Mm, we can. I'm hungry too.
"
Both woman stood from the bench and makes their way to the restaurant. Each holding their own shopping bags and chatting with laughter.
Reaching the restaurant, they entered through the doors and waited to be seated. A waitress sees them and walks up to them.
"Hello, welcome to—-
"
The moment she saw the two women, she sucked in a mouthful of air and gasped.
Both women were beautiful and flawless. Even the way they dressed was very eye catching, despite it being very simple.
However, not looking at the shorter woman, she looks at the taller one.
A woman who's beauty can put the moon to shame. One who is beyond perfection. Never in her life did she ever think to meet this woman in person.
The waitress swallow her saliva and stutter in her words.
"Y-y-you're.... you're...
"
Zhao Ya'Er smiles and whispers as she leans in closer to the waitress. She already knows the reason for the waitress's shocked expression.
"Can we get a table for two?
"
In a dumbstruck state, the waitress nod her head. Her eyes could not help but continue to stare at Yue Ling.
"P-please follow m-me this way....
"
She lift both her hands and rub her eyes. When she sees that Yue Ling was still standing there, she smiles in excitement.
"Yes, please follow me this way.
"
Turning, she guides the two women to their table.
Yue Ling follows behind the waitress without a change of emotion. On the other hand, Zhao Ya'Er could not help but look around the restaurant.
To her surprise, the restaurant is full of customers. Not just any normal customers, but every person inside this place are from prestige families. She even recognizes a few faces, since her father is a businessman.
"Ya'Er, our table is over here.
"
Yue Ling calls out when she didn't see Zhao Ya'Er. When the waitress led them to the table, she thought the woman was behind her, but who would have thought it wasn't like that.
"Ah, okay. I'm coming now.
"
Zhao Ya'Er smiles cheerfully and increase her speed to the table. Sitting down, the two women start to order appetizers, before their lunch meal.
While both women started to enjoy their lunch, they did not notice that a certain person was glaring at them from another table.
At this table were three woman. One with auburn hair, another had dark short hair and the last one had brown hair.
The woman glaring at the Yue Ling and Zhao Ya'Er was the auburn hair woman. She clench her fist and her expression turned sour.
"Xie Na, are you alright?
"
The brown hair woman asks as she notice her friend's change of look. Curious, she follows Xie Na's eyes and she sees Zhao Ya'Er and Yue Ling. However, from her angle, she could only see Zhao Ya'Er, while Yue Ling's back was facing her.
Xie Na stare in disgust before turning back to her two friends. She pout her lip and respond to her friend's question.
"Chu Hua, I'm alright. I just saw someone I knew. I didn't think she would lie to me that she didn't want to have lunch.
"
Hearing this, Ji Chu Hua frown and looks at Yue Ling's table. She pursed her lip in thoughts. Usually, whenever she sees Xie Na, the girl was always with Zhao Ya'Er and Ling Ni.
Looking at Xie Na, she smiles,
"It's okay, you have me and Mei Mei.
" Looking to the short hair girl, Ji Chu Hua smiles to her,
"Right, Mei Mei?
"
Ning Mei turn her head to look at both women and smiles,
"Mm, we don't need people like them in our circle.
"
When her last word fell, she glance to the table Xie Na was looking at. Her hand holding the napkin clench tightly. How could she not know that the woman with Zhao Ya'Er is the person she loathe?
At Yue Ling's table, the waitress had brought their order to them. Looking down at her food, she smiles and inhales the delicious smell. Picking up her chopstick, she didn't hesitate to pick up a piece of meat. However....
*ring ring*
Her phone suddenly rang and her hand holding the chopsticks froze. She sighed in annoyance at the person who decided to disturb her.
Putting the chopsticks down, she takes her phone out from her bag. When she saw the name of the caller, the space between her brows crease into three lines. She looks at Zhao Ya'Er and smile faintly.
"Sorry, I have to step out for a bit.
"
"Mm. Mm. Take your time.
"
Zhao Ya'Er waves her hand and gestures Yue Ling it was okay. Not waiting, she continues to enjoy her food.
Nodding her head, Yue Ling stood from her seat and walks to the front of the restaurant. Stepping outside, she answers the call.
"What is it, Lin Hui?
"
"Boss, something happened.
"
Hearing this, Yue Ling's eyes dimmed,
"Report.
"
"I found out that Ti Lung committed suicide.
"
"Suicide?
"
"Mm. The police are trying to cover it up, but I was able to hack into their system in time and saw the record.
"
Yue Ling did not show any change in her expression. Whether Ti Lung committed suicide out of guilt or fear, she does not care. It is retribution for all his lowly crimes.
"How is Ting doing?
"
"He's recovering. Physically, he is doing fine, but mentally, I cannot say.
"
Nodding her head, Yue Ling sighed before she gives out her next task.
"I gave Liu Shan a task, follow up with him.
"
"Got it.
"
Ending the call, Yue Ling looks up to the sky as she thinks of something. After a short long while, she finally turns around and walks back inside the restaurant.
