Wei Ying drove to the place they had agreed on.
After waiting in line for a while, she found a seat for two by the window.
Then she took out her cellphone and sent a WeChat message to Shen Mingxi.
"I'm here. I'm super lucky and got a seat. I'm waiting for you by the window."
After sending the message, Wei Ying didn't hear from him for a long time, so she waited there.
"Miss, would you like some snail noodles?" the waiter asked warmly.
"No, I'm waiting for my friend. I'll tell him when he gets here."
Snail noodles were very special. Some people didn't like sour bamboo shoots, and some didn't like peanuts.
So, Wei Ying didn't dare to make a decision and wanted to wait for Shen Mingxi to come.
But as he waited … half an hour passed.
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be a traffic jam at this time. It took him less than 20 minutes to get to Tongda Road from the Shen Corporation.
It wasn't normal for him to take half an hour.
At this thought, Wei Ying sent another WeChat message.
"Big Brother Mingxi, are you here yet?"
After a long time, there was still no reply.
She gritted her teeth and waited for another ten minutes.
"Miss, do you still want to eat? We close at 9: 30," the waiter kindly reminded her.
Wei Ying glanced at her watch. It was almost time to close.
But Shen Mingxi wasn't here yet.
"Wait for me. I'll call my friend."
Wei Ying didn't give up and decided to call Shen Mingxi.
She was still worried that he might have gotten into a car accident. Anyway, she imagined a lot of things because of her worry.
After a few rings, someone picked up.
"Big Brother Mingxi, where are you?"
"Sorry, I'm President Shen's assistant."
"Huh? Did something happen to him? "
Hearing that it was Shen Mingxi's assistant, Wei Ying became even more nervous.
"President Shen has something urgent to deal with. Who are you? Leave your name. He'll get back to you when he comes back."
"Oh, it's okay. Let him do it."
Wei Ying's heart felt empty.
After hanging up, she sat there in a daze for a few minutes.
"Miss, do you still want to eat your snail noodles?"
There were only a few people left in the shop.
She sat alone by the window, her silhouette alone.
"Give me a bowl. I'll eat anything. Add more chili oil. Thank you."
"Okay. Please wait a moment."
Wei Ying was depressed after she ordered the food.
What kind of urgent matter did Shen Mingxi have to attend to that he didn't even tell her?
He even asked his assistant to answer the phone?
If it was for work, it shouldn't have happened. He didn't want to miss an appointment because of work and then not even say goodbye.
At this moment, she received a WeChat message from her best friend in Singapore.
"Yingying, are you there?"
"Yes, what's up?" Wei Ying replied immediately.
Vaguely, this bestie of hers was still contacting her at such a late hour. There seemed to be something going on.
"Something happened here. It's the kid you dragged me in here."
"What happened to her?" Wei Ying immediately thought of Huo Yanyan's daughter.
"Today at school, she used the tip of a pencil to scratch a female classmate's face."
"What?" Wei Ying was shocked.
Singapore's laws were notoriously strict. In that country, this kind of thing was considered very serious, even if she was a minor.
"How could this happen? What happened?" Wei Ying was alarmed.
"I don't know the details. They said that she hurt someone at school and was sent to the police station by the school. She was detained … The police station and the school should have contacted her guardian by now. Ying, if I remember correctly, her guardian is Shen Mingxi, right?"
Hearing her bestie's words, Wei Ying immediately understood why Shen Mingxi stood her up tonight.
