Chapter 37: I Lost Wen Qing
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After Shang Li went in, she walked around until she found the table Wen Cheng was playing at.
“I’ve finally found you.” Shang Li approached him.
Wen Chen had just received the cue when he saw Shang Li. He passed the cue to her. “Here to play?”
Wen Chen was not from an aristocratic family in the capital. He usually dabbled in all kinds of art and liked to play in private. He was also very open. His free and uninhibited character also earned him a good reputation.
Shang Li’s social circle was huge. After getting to know Wen Chen, they became close. They would usually invite each other out.
Shang Li waved her hand and rejected his invitation. “I’m not playing anymore. I have a curfew, so I have to get home.”
Wen Chen’s lips curved into a smile. When they hung out together in the past, Shang Li never cared about her curfew. He looked behind her and did not see Wen Qing, so he asked, “Where’s Wen Qing?”
“She’s waiting for me downstairs,” Shang Li replied.
Wen Chen sighed. “It’s a pity that I didn’t get to talk to the great beauty.” Wen Chen sighed again as he chalked his pool cue.
Shang Li patted Wen Chen’s elbow. “Don’t even think about it. You’re not lucky enough.”
“That hurts.” Wen Chen’s tone was filled with resentment.
Wen Chen’s surname and Wen Qing’s surname were the same. Shang Li had introduced them to each other. She had even wanted to play matchmaker. However, Wen Qing could only think about Shang Ke. She would not date anyone else, so Shang Li had given up on this idea.
Wen Chen chuckled and said in a casual tone, “I saw her just now… She seemed upset. What happened?”
‘You didn’t come and say hello when you saw her, and now you’re asking me about her. You really…’ Shang Li couldn’t help but laugh. She said, “Forget it. It’s nothing.”
Wen Chen did not press the issue.
Before she left, Shang Li did not forget to ask Wen Chen about the party. “By the way, who organized the party tonight?”
Wen Chen leaned over the table and aimed. With a single shot, three balls disappeared into the pockets. He straightened up and said, “What’s her name again?”
“Shu Rui. Ms. Shu,” Wen Chen’s friend said.
“Yes, that’s her.” Wen Chen nodded.
Most of the people who came tonight were Shu Rui’s friends, especially the ones beside Wen Chen. They had invited Wen Chen. Wen Chen wanted Wen Qing here, so he invited Shang Li. In the end, he did not manage to talk to Wen Qing at all. She probably was not interested in him.
On the way down, Shang Li was thinking about whether she should tell Wen Qing that Shu Rui was the one who organized the party tonight. She was worried that Wen Qing would feel uncomfortable after finding out. Wen Chen should have made that clear in advance. If she had known that it was Shu Rui’s party, she would not have come.
After exiting the club, Shang Li waited for a while. However, Wen Qing’s car was nowhere to be found. She called her, but her phone was switched off!
“Why would she turn off her phone?”
Shang Li always got a little flustered when she was confused. She called her a few more times. Then, she called the Wen family’s villa in Heting village. The butler picked up and said that Wen Qing was not home yet.
Shang Li thought, ‘Could she have gone back to her apartment?’
But, why didn’t Wen Qing tell her or wait for her? Her bag was still with her.
Shang Li did not immediately go to the apartment to look for her. She decided to check the surveillance footage of Visitors from Outer Space first. She went to the front desk to ask about it. Then, she saw a cleaning lady holding a familiar-looking bag.
Wasn’t that her bag?
She had given it to Wen Qing. Why was a cleaning lady holding it?
Shang Li immediately ran over to stop the cleaning lady. After a series of questions, Shang Li’s face turned pale.
The cleaning lady saw that she was trembling and quickly returned the bag to her. “Since you said it’s yours, I’ll return it to you. Don’t tell the manager that I stole it. That woman really gave it to me as a gift. If I had known, I wouldn’t have accepted it.”
After she said that, she turned and left, feeling like she had a run of bad luck tonight.
Shang Li did not even check her bag. She called Shang Yinghan with trembling hands. When he picked up the call, Shang Li said in a choked voice, “Uncle, I’m sorry… I lost Wen Qing.”
