Chapter 202: Miss Zi, Did Something Happen?
The bodyguard did not immediately take the paper. Instead, he went to talk to the car owner before he said, “Miss, my Madam mentioned that the reparation fees is a trivial matter. You can just pay attention when driving in the future.”
“Alright, thank you. However, I insist on paying the reparation fees.” Zi Yi forced the paper into his hands and went back to her car.
She then maneuvered her car to where the car owner was sitting and pressed on the horn.
The car window rolled down, and a woman that looked around her thirties could be seen.
The woman had an elegant temperament while looking gentle. She gave off a particularly comfortable feeling.
Zi Yi was surprised at the sight of her. This woman was Lu Jingye’s mother.
However, she did not reveal her surprise. She originally wanted to address her as auntie, but Lu Jingye’s mother looked too young. As a result, what she called out turned into: “Sister, I’m sorry for the accident. As for the reparation fees, you must tell me when you get it fixed.”
Song Lingluo was instantly delighted at how Zi Yi addressed her. “It’s fine. Just drive with more caution in the future.”
Zi Yi did not expect Mrs. Lu to be so gentle, which made her feel even worse. “It won’t do. I crashed into your car and I ought to pay for it.”
Song Lingluo fancied the young lady at first glance and felt that she was really good-looking.
More importantly, she was also polite. (She would never admit that she was elated because she had called her sister). She thought for a moment and said, “Alright then, I’ll give you a call when the car is repaired.”
“Ok!”
The two of them said their goodbyes and Zi Yi drove away.
Just as her car drove away, Song Lingluo’s phone rang.
Looking at the caller ID, Song Lingluo answered the call and called out, “Jingye.”
Lu Jingye’s worried voice sounded. “Mother, I heard someone crashed into your car. Are you alright?”
He added, “I’ll send someone over at once.”
Song Lingluo hastily stopped him. “There’s no need. The car was only slightly bumped into and some paint fell off.”
She knew her eldest son was worried for her and added, “You’re on a business trip and it must have been tiring for you these days. Don’t worry about me, hurry and go back and rest early.”
She then thought of the beautiful young lady that crashed into her and said with a smile. “Moreover, the one who bumped into my car was a young lady and she has also apologized. She also insisted on paying the reparation fees. I didn’t suffer any injuries at all. There’s no need to send someone over.”
Lu Jingye remained silent over the phone.
Song Lingluo started to criticize him. “Yunxiao is constantly traveling around the world so I can’t control him. But it’s a different matter for you. You’ve been staying in the capital for long periods of time but why haven’t you found a daughter-in-law to keep me company?”
Lu Jingye still maintained silence.
Song Lingluo did not intend to chase after him and so, she changed the subject and asked, “Yunxiao still hasn’t returned my call. Why did he go abroad for so long this time?”
Her tone carried traces of concern.
Lu Jingye said, “Mother, I often keep in touch with Yunxiao, so you don’t have to worry.”
Song Lingluo breathed a sigh of relief. “It’s good that he has contacted you.”
She added, “In another half a month’s time, it’s your grandfather’s seventieth birthday. When the time comes, we should go there early. You’d better make arrangements for your work these next few days. Your grandfather doesn’t like it when people are still busy with their work at his place.”
“I will.”
…
Zi Yi modified her car again after she returned.
The housekeeper stood by the side and handed her the tools while asking anxiously, “Miss Zi, did something happen?”
Zi Yi nodded. “I accidentally bumped into another car.”
The housekeeper was startled. “Miss Zi, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, the other car’s paint coat was scratched off.”
The housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief. “It’s good that you weren’t injured.”
