Mr. Fang's Feisty Mistress

Chapter 69 Back Home



Thinking about changing her surname when she gets married, Zhang Liling felt that the 'FANG' name would suit her more.

Zhang Liling was silent for a moment before speaking up, "One day I would want to meet this Song family of yours!"

"You want to meet them? But I don't think they would want to meet you. Why did you call today, surely it's not just to talk about changing your surname?" Song Jujing asked.

"Your ex asked me to come over for the weekend."

"Liling, don't be rude! What does he want you back?" Song Jujing went on to ask.

Zhang Liling sighed, "Apparently, he wants to talk about something, and I'm sure it's going to end up ripping the existing peace we all feel we have at the moment."

Song Jujing released a deep breath while pondering over the reason for Zhang Renshu's call.

"How was his tone?" She was trying to analyse something.

"He texted me, and his tone was so commanding as if I would be in a big trouble if I don't go. But I don't want to go, I don't want any more attention on me." Zhang Liling said while thinking back to her step mother.

It looks she was scared of her, but wasn't sure about it.

"See what you will do, go back on Friday, when your father says what he wants that night, leave there the next morning immediately after breakfast. You don't need to tell anyone how long you are staying." Song Jujing advised.

She was looking out for her daughter.

Zhang Liling sighed and agreed. She was still living off her father in a way, and since this was not too dangerous, she would have to listen to her mother.

The mother and daughter caught up with what they have been through since the last time they spoke, and trust Zhang Liling to hide a lot of things relating to Mr. Fang, and the fight at the mall.

After speaking with her, Zhang Liling turned off her phone and went for dinner.

She and the butler usually had their meals in a different dinning area meant for the house workers.

When she was through with dinner, she went to clear out the plate Mr. Fang had eaten with, and then went straight to the kitchen to clean up everything.

She felt fortunate that she didn't meet Mr. Fang at the dinner table. She still wanted to thank him about the bag, but she refrained from doing that. It would be better if she doesn't annoy him with her presence.

On the evening of the next day, Zhang Liling had to tell Mr. Fang about taking the weekend off, and for that, she had to go to his study to find him.

A soft knock sounded on the door in the midst of tidying up the assignments/projects of his students. Mr. Fang gave the permission for Zhang Liling to come in, without looking up.

"Come in," His baritone voice was heard as a result of the sound waves carrying it from the study to outside of the door.

Zhang Liling heard his voice before pushing the door open. She had only peeped when she saw how busy Mr. Fang was.

"Mr. Fang, can I talk to you for a second?"

"What do you want?" He asked and finally spared her a glance.

His handsomeness looked very serious with those reading glasses shielding his beautiful deep-set eyes, and the after-effect from doing a serious work.

He could feel the soft scent emitting from Zhang Liling's body, and his earlier irritation at her disturbance, cleared up.

Zhang Liling shut the door behind her and walked toward his desk. She only stopped when she came to stand in front of him.

She could already see how busy he was, and not wanting to waste a second of his precious time, she managed a smile and parted her lips slightly to speak in a soft tone.

"Mr. Fang, can you please give me 24 hours off from Friday afternoon up until Saturday morning?"

Mr. Fang frowned slightly as he asked, totally putting his focus on her. "Why do you want 24 hours off? Are going to cause trouble again and leave me to clean up your mess, or are you trying to run away from housework?"

If this was a good day, if she hadn't offended him, Zhang Liling could have laughed softly because she found his questions funny.

Who would take permission from him to run away and cause trouble? It looks he thought highly of her.

"No, Mr. Fang, it's not like that. My father called for a meeting and asked me to come over."

Hearing that it had to do with her father and family, he did not continue questioning her.

"Permission granted!" Mr. Fang said in conclusion, and Zhang Liling thanked him before leaving for her bedroom.

When Friday came, Zhang Liling went to school in the morning and when she finished, she first went straight to have a tub of ice cream to calm the internal heat, before heading straight home.

It was outside the school gates that she caught of a glimpse of Zhang Mingyu getting into a cab.

'What happened to his car? Did I miss something huge?' Zhang Liling thought as a smile slowly appeared on her face.

Quickly, she flagged down a cab and gave her address before relaxing her back against the seat.

Twenty minutes later, the cab arrived in front of the Zhang villa. Zhang Liling stepped down and paid her fare before stepping into the house.

"You are back?" Shi Wenqian said with a smile that was not a smile as soon as she saw Zhang Liling.

Only God knows how angry she was when her husband told her in the morning that Zhang Liling would be coming over for the weekend. As for the reason she was coming back for, he didn't state it.

"Did you miss me?" Zhang Liling asked with a faint smile on her face. She didn't even know when said that out loud, but had to continue pretending. She didn't come back to play mind games with her stepmother to avoid getting shot in the foot.

Shi Wenqian scoffed. "It looks like you have some guts now."

Zhang Liling overlooked the Hidden meaning in her words and walked past her. She went straight to her bedroom before locking the door behind her.

Slowly stepping forward, she glanced at the neatly arranged and dust-free bedroom, and honestly didn't miss it.

'At least the servants cleaned out her bedroom, and this could only be because her father announced that she was coming to stay for the weekend.' That was all she thought.

Knowing how her stepmother operated, she wouldn't be surprised if her bedroom wasn't cleaned up.

Sighing to herself, she brought down her backpack from her back before throwing it on her bed and then heading for the shower.

Taking a look at her closet and bathroom, she discovered that everything was intact.

One thing Shi Wenqian wouldn't do, was to search her bedroom or turn it upside down because, she had nothing to offer and hide.

Until there came a time she was capable of something, she wouldn't go to that length.
