The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 266

Rong Dai's assistant didn't dare ask more and immediately left the venue to investigate.

Rong Dai and Lu Nianzhi had spent basically the whole night chatting with Ha Wei. When leaving, if it wasn't for Rong Dai having her own car, Ha Wei would have hated not being able to be their driver.

"I didn't expect it! President Huo actually kept such a hand, this makes things much easier for us!"

Sitting in the car, Lu Nianzhi said with a laugh.

Rong Dai sat quietly in the back, watching the neon lights speeding by outside. Although her face was calm, her heart was burning hot.

"No, this means I have to work even harder now."

Shao Ting did so much for her, he was so thoughtful, how could she fail him?

Seeing Rong Dai's calm yet extremely serious profile, Lu Nianzhi had a feeling that Rong Dai in the future would impact many people.

She had a indescribable temperament and spirit about her.

"Go for it, I'll handle the rest, just focus on your work."

She gently patted Rong Dai's shoulder, and the two returned to Huafu Hill City together.

When Rong Dai returned home, only the two warm yellow yard lights were on, making the huge house look a bit lonely.

Her nose suddenly sour, she suddenly missed being in Huo Shao Ting's arms.

In her past life, she thought as long as she was sensible enough, she could gain the emperor's favor.

So she had to make herself strong, forbearing, and sensible until she was numbed.

Not until meeting Huo Shao Ting did her dormant heart come alive again.

With slightly stinging eyes, she sniffed and went into the house.

After changing shoes, she took out her phone and threw herself into the soft sofa.

In WeChat, the last time of their couple's chat was still there.

Rong Dai didn't think too much, her slender fingers tapped the screen, taking the initiative to message him.

"Dear, I miss you so much, come home quickly."

Yes, she missed him very very much.

She knew Huo Shao Ting had always given more in their relationship, she had no way to repay him, she could only love him more.

Lying on the sofa waiting for half an hour without a reply from Huo Shao Ting, she looked at the time, got up and went to remove her make up and wash up.

Lying in bed reading for a while, after finishing her homework assigned by the tutor on her tablet, it was already 11 pm.

But her phone screen was still silent.

Rong Dai had never longed and waited like this before, holding her phone and looking it over and over, she opened Huo Shao Ting's Moments.

His Moments were very clean, no sentimental words or pictures.

The only background picture was recently changed, it was her side profile, and his avatar was the same.

Rong Dai looked at her own background picture and avatar, finding a photo of Huo Shao Ting in her album to change them to.

Looking at the person in the album, her heart was burning hot.

Just as Rong Dai was lost in the photos in the album, her phone suddenly violently vibrated, startling her!

Looking closely, she found it was her sister-in-law she hadn't contacted for a long time.

Ever since Chinese New Year when her sister-in-law said she would go work at Gu Chengyan's studio, they both got busy with their own work and didn't really keep in touch.

Logically, her sister-in-law should be focused on being close to her idol now that she could see him everyday, Rong Dai thought she would be the furthest thing from her sister-in-law's mind.

So late at night, why was she calling?

Filled with questions, Rong Dai answered the call.

"Sis!"

Huo Mei Shu's shriek nearly scared Rong Dai's soul out of her body.

Rong Dai sat up straight, frowning asking her: "Mei Shu, what's wrong?"

The wind outside was strong, but she could tell her sister-in-law was crying.

"Wah...Sis...I'm so miserable!"

Huo Mei Shu dragged her luggage, her makeup was cried off.

Rong Dai was confused but also worried something happened, hurried to comfort her: "First tell me what happened, where are you?"

On the phone, Huo Mei Shu wailed loudly.

Listening to her sister-in-law crying bitterly, Rong Dai's temples throbbed violently twice.

"What exactly happened? Stop crying first, we can discuss any issue as a family to resolve it okay?"

Rong Dai was completely puzzled!

Wasn't she supposed to be working?

How did she become like a homeless wanderer in a blink of an eye?

"Sis...I...I want to go to your place."

Huo Mei Shu sniffled, crying like a kitten, looking pitiful.

Rong Dai sighed helplessly, getting an address from her.

Then getting up, dressing, and taking a taxi to pick her up.

Seeing her sister-in-law alone with luggage on the lawn, disheveled in the wind, Rong Dai was stunned.

Wasn't the plan for her to work?

How did she become like a homeless person so quickly?

"Sis, you're finally here..."

Huo Mei Shu's eyes were so swollen she couldn't see. Disregarding everything, she rushed up and hugged Rong Dai crying.

Rong Dai was embarrassed and confused, only able to gently pat her back, having the driver put the luggage in the trunk and bringing the person back to Huafu Hill City.

After bringing her home, seeing her sister-in-law's miserable appearance, Rong Dai had to make some noodles.

While Huo Mei Shu ate, she went to run a bath and brought her clean clothes.

"I ran you a hot bath, go take a hot shower first, we can slowly talk about things."

Huo Mei Shu sniffled, her eyes were too swollen to see.

"Thank you, Sis."

Rong Dai watched her back very helplessly. Her sister-in-law was a girl who loved beauty, this was the first time Rong Dai had seen her cry so bitterly.

Her intuition told her this was definitely related to Gu Chengyan.

She looked at the time, deciding not to call her mother-in-law, only sending a text.

Right after sending it, an unknown call came in.

She frowned answering: "Hello..."

"Is this Mrs. Huo? This is Gu Chengyan."

Not waiting for her to speak, Gu Chengyan's anxious voice came through.

Rong Dai looked back towards the bathroom, walking forward a few steps and lowering her voice to ask him: "Mr. Gu, may I ask the purpose of your late night call?"

Gu Chengyan breathed heavily, his words full of urgency: "It's like this, Mei Shu misunderstood some things. I wanted to explain to her, but when I got back she was gone!"

"Most of Mei Shu's classmates have gone abroad, there aren't many places she could go alone in Shengjing. I think she trusts you more, so she may have contacted you."

Rong Dai frowned, she didn't like getting involved in other people's emotional issues.

But tonight her sister-in-law cried especially sadly, so she had to ask more.
