1105: Not Even Fit To Be Friends

Not Even Fit To Be Friends

Zhu snapped out of his thoughts. He quickly veered his eyes away from the rearview mirror. He started the engine and replied. "Nothing."2

Ji Ya acknowledged softly unsuspectingly before looking away.

Zhu was Song Qi's trusted aide. He kept thinking about the girl he saw Ji Ya talking to earlier as he waited in the car.

If he was not mistaken, the girl who was talking to Ji Ya resembled Song Ning's daughter.

When Zhu turned the car around, he instinctively glanced outside the car window. He recognized the license plate number on the car. It was the same car that came to pick Huo Yao up when he first met her.

He had a deep impression of the license plate number. When he tried to follow the car, he lost it.

Strangely, he was unable to get any leads from the license plate number either.

"Miss Ji, I noticed you were talking to a pretty girl at the school entrance. Are you classmates?" Zhu snapped out of his thoughts and asked quizzically, pretending he did not know Huo Yao.

"Not really. I just befriended her recently, but she is in another department," replied Ji Ya.

Zhu narrowed his eyes. He was just wondering how two girls from different departments could know each other. He reckoned Huo Yao must have deliberately approached Ji Ya after finding out Ji Ya's true identity.

They were in completely different faculties and weren't even in the same year. How could two girls with absolutely nothing in common become friends?

The more Zhu pondered, the more he felt he was right. Sure enough, people should not judge books by their covers. Huo Yao might appear cold and distant, but she definitely was a scheming girl.

Before long, the car arrived at the hospital.

After Ji Ya had changed into the sterile hospital gown and went to visit Old Master Song, Zhu reported what he saw at the school to Song Qi.

Song Qi frowned deeply upon hearing this. She raised her head and looked through the glass window at her daughter. "Are you sure?"

Zhu nodded. "I am sure she is Miss Ning's daughter. I couldn't have made a mistake."

Song Qi raised her hand and rubbed her forehead with a mocking look on her face. "Like mother like daughter. No matter how hard I tried, she ended up trying to squeeze something out of the family."

She felt annoyed by the news.

"Perhaps Huo Yao tried to be friends with Miss Ji when she found out how well connected Miss Ji is," said Zhu softly.

Song Qi did not want her daughter to have anything to do with Song Ning's daughter. The moment she heard what Zhu said, she became even angrier. "Her father is just an insignificant hooligan. Is she even fit to be friends with my daughter?"

Zhu noticed how angry Song Qi was, so he did not answer. He did not want to trigger Song Qi.

Song Qi was so angry that she kept pacing up and down the corridor holding her purse.

After Ji Ya came out of the sterile chamber, she noticed how upset her mother was. She asked curiously. "Mom, what's wrong?"

Song Qi parted her lips as she looked at her daughter. "…Nothing."

"Really?" Ji Ya did not buy it.

Song Qi quickly smiled and explained softly. "I am simply worried about your grandfather's condition."

Ji Ya was completely unsuspecting. She patted her mum on the shoulder comfortingly. "The doctor has already confirmed that Grandpa is no longer in critical condition. Moreover, he is recovering well. Don't worry."

Song Qi nodded. "Let's go home then."

Song Qi walked ahead in front of Ji Ya. She suddenly turned her head sideways slightly and looked at her daughter. Then, she pretended to sound completely normal. "Have you met anyone interesting at school recently?"
