Qin Zhi’ai paused for a few seconds and suddenly understood what Xu Wennuan meant. “Nuannuan, when did you arrive in Beijing?”
“When I called you, I just got off the plane…” Over the phone, Qin Zhi’ai heard Xu Wennuan asking the taxi driver to take her to Peking Bistro. After hearing the response of the taxi driver, Xu Wennuan continued to speak to her. “I have an interview tomorrow morning, and in the afternoon I have to go back to Shanghai together with Wu Hao, so I’m a little hurried…”
Xu Wennuan talked for a long time, then she suddenly remembered the key point and asked, “By the way, Xiao’ai, are you free tonight?”
“Of course…” Qin Zhi’ai looked at the time on the cellphone. It was already 5:20. Gu Yusheng’s villa was far from the Peking Bistro, and it was still rush hour. “I have to go. See you later.”
…
After hanging up, Qin Zhi’ai ran into the dressing room. She found her own clothes from the suitcase inside the cabinet, stuffed them into the bag, then ran to the dresser to take the cosmetics and put on Liang Doukou’s clothes. Finally, she quickly picked up her car keys and hurriedly went downstairs with a big bag in hand.
When the housekeeper was about to go upstairs and ask her what she wanted to eat for dinner, seeing Qin Zhi’ai well-dressed and running downstairs, she stopped immediately, “Miss, are you going out now?”
“Yeah, I have an appointment with a friend, so I won’t eat at home tonight,” Qin Zhi’ai said to the housekeeper as she opened the shoe cabinet. She took out a pair of high heels first. Considering that she would change her clothes later, she then put them back and found a pair of white sneakers. She quickly put them on and left.
After Qin Zhi’ai drove Liang Doukou’s car out of the villa, she didn’t go directly to the Peking Bistro. Instead, she turned into a lady’s club that Liang Doukou usually went to first.
After parking the car, she walked into the club. When the private receptionist came to serve her, she didn’t let her arrange a room for her, but went to the bathroom.
The restrooms in the club were separate rooms with showers. After Qin Zhi’ai arrived, she took a shower and removed her makeup. Then she pulled out a hair straightener from the bag and straightened the long hair that was originally intended to disguise her as Liang Doukou.
Qin Zhi’ai didn’t like to wear makeup, so she simply patted on some moisturizer and put on her own clothes. She put all of Liang Doukou’s clothes and cosmetics into the big bag and looked at the image of her previous appearance in the mirror carefully for a while to make sure that there were no problems, then walked out of the bathroom.
After taking off the appearance of Liang Doukou, the private receptionist in the club didn’t treat her warmly like they had before. She went directly to the parking lot, put the bag back into Liang Doukou’s car, and then went out of the club. She stood on the side of the road and hailed a taxi to take her to the Peking Bistro.
As soon as the car arrived at the entrance of the Peking Bistro, Qin Zhi’ai received Xu Wennuan’s phone call. She pressed the answer b.u.t.ton. Through the window of the taxi, she saw Xu Wennuan standing at the gate of the hotel with a suitcase in hand before she had even uttered a word.
Qin Zhi’ai paid the driver hurriedly, then opened the door of the car, hung up the phone, and shouted to Xu Wennuan, “Nuannuan!” She ran over to her.
Seeing her, Xu Wennuan first screamed with excitement, and then dropping her suitcase, she rushed directly over and embraced her, screaming and jumping. “Xiao’ai, I missed you so much!”
