The next second, before Qian Tao could react, her hand was caught by Li Hengzhi and she was dragged out of the nightclub.
The sight of their backs left Fang Hengqi mumbling to himself, “Weird, it’s so weird.”
He didn’t know why but he just had a weird feeling!
What was wrong?

Qian Tao could only shake off her hand from his when they were out from the nightclub. “Li Hengzhi, where do you think you are bringing me?”
“Just follow me,” he said, “Don’t worry, I guess nobody will spend a hundred million dollars to purchase you. Selling you would be a loss.”
“…” Qian Tao was speechless.
His words were crude but his reasoning was not. Although this was what he said, he was indirectly reminding her of what she had done to him. She couldn’t utter a single word.
She switched her thoughts and told herself, forget about it, after all, there was a pit in front of her and she had to step over it sooner or later.
“Then, I’ll go back and get my things. My bag and my mobile phone are still in the nightclub.”
“You, get her bag for her.” Li Hengzhi instructed one of his bodyguards and shoved Qian Tao into the car while he got in from the other side.
Qian Tao winded down the car window and shouted, “Hey, please tell my schoolmates I have something to do and have to go.”
“Who would be concerned about your whereabouts?”
He was not asking her and she felt it was sarcasm.
“Of course,” Qian Tao looked up. “The love among us is deep.”
She didn’t know how Jiajia was doing…
She was unable to ensure her own safety just now and was unable to take care of others.
“If you have been humiliated, I think the love between your school-mates will be weakened.”
Qian Tao was not happy and rebutted, “Our love is not so shallow!”
Li Hengzhi said calmly, “I’ll bet fifty million dollars.”
Qian Tao wanted to say something but looking at him, she swallowed her words. She replied softly, “You win.”
She knew what he meant.
This was a world where pride was important.
“Another thing is,” he added, “your father is the mayor.”
Qian Tao’s mood dampened a little and her voice softened. Leaning against the car window, she said, “I know.”
She had always known.
No one would understand this feeling more than herself.
Li Hengzhi felt that Qian Tao was acting strangely, as if thinking of something and her expression was not her usual.
***
It was an international hotel.
Qian Tao tailed behind Li Hengzhi. The luxurious decorations of the hotel did not get her all excited.
Li Hengzhi was not surprised. Being the mayor’s daughter, she must have followed her father to high class places frequently. Keeping calm was a personality a lady should have.
In the VIP lift, Li Hengzhi said, “Please remain as calm as you are now no matter what I say or what happens next. Do you understand?”
Although Qian Tao was unsure what he was doing, she nodded her head and replied, “I’ll try my best.”
“Don’t try your best, do your best, be smart.” His tone was a little cold.
Qian Tao had butterflies in her stomach. What were they up to?
“Wait, could it be that our meet was not a coincidence?” He looked as if he was bringing her somewhere to do something, could it be a sudden inspiration? “Did you follow me?”
Li Hengzhi smiled scornfully. “Do I need to follow you? Your school sending representatives for a competition at Yinchuan is something I don’t even need to check.”
