After logging off Magnolia, Lei Zhen checked on his cell phone, only to see a new message from an unknown number.
This is Griselda, and if you're not Lei Zhen, then you're going to receive my wrath for giving me a fake number.
That was the message and Lei Zhen twitched his mouth after reading it.
He wasn't devious enough to give her a fake number.
Typing on his cell phone, Lei Zhen kindly replied to her, "This is indeed Lei Zhen and the chancellor".
A few seconds after the message was sent, Griselda seemed to be a keyboard warrior as she managed to send a long paragraph.
Great, you just saved yourself from a deadly crisis. Also, I've noticed your IP address to be somewhere close to the place I'm vacationing at. So let's meet up.
"..."
'This bitch actually tracked my IP addresses down.' Lei Zhen cursed silently, feeling deceived by exchanging phone numbers with her.
As expected, it was best to be cautious than to lower his guard for even a second.
Just when Lei Zhen wanted to reply 'no' to the text message, his cell phone rang.
It was Griselda calling him and honestly, Lei Zhen was tempted to click the Decline button.
Alas, the consequences of doing so would be unimaginable. Thus, Lei Zhen helplessly accepted the call.
The moment the call connected, Griselda's somewhat elegant voice resounded from the cell phone.
"You're the first one to make me wait this long to accept a call from me, Lei Zhen."
"And you're the first woman to track down my IP address through a simple phone contact."
"Hmm, good point. I'll guess we're even now. Anyway, I've sent a flying car near your area, so you can calmly walk out and follow the hand signal that I sent in the text."
'Hand signal?' Lei Zhen raised an eyebrow in confusion. He swiped out of the call to check the text message and it was an outdated love sign, using the thumb and pointer finger.
"I'm not doing that cringe hand signal." Lei Zhen flat-out replied.
"Tsk, how unromantic you are. Fine, just make sure you stand at the designated area I sent and all is well." Griselda clicked her tongue and ended the call.
After the call ended, Lei Zhen's phone made a 'ding' sound, clearly the location that Griselda sent to him. 'Just what did I get myself into?'
Feeling annoyed by this eccentric woman's behavior, Lei Zhen still decided to dress up and head out.
Time was of the essence and since she said she got information that cannot be found online, then this was an opportunity he needed to take.
Other than the swamp of Lux Forest, Lei Zhen would also try to get more information regarding Magnolia as a whole.
Since Griselda had an information channel under her belt, then it means she must know a lot of things, especially the current news.
Sometime later, Lei Zhen arrived at the designated location and sure enough, a flying car hovered around him.
"What the heck…" Lei Zhen was aghast when he saw what kind of flying car it was.
The model of the flying car was a new release and only a handful of people could buy it. In fact, even if you have money, without enough reputation and fame, you wouldn't be eligible to purchase one at all.
As the flying car landed, the driver smiled brightly at Lei Zhen. "Hi, you must be the person my Miss asked to pick up, right?"
Lei Zhen nodded his head.
Alas, just when he tried to board the flying car, the driver locked the door and shook his head. "Miss said you have to do some signal. Otherwise, I'm legally not allowed to let you enter."
"Then I suppose you have the wrong person." Lei Zhen replied calmly, turning around and preparing to leave.
He had already given her a leeway by coming here, so if she wanted to push things far, then so be it. He won't be playing this kind of game with her.
Thankfully, the driver halted Lei Zhen in time as he proceeded to explain that this was instructed by his miss. "Sorry, Miss instructed me that if you agreed to do some signal, then you're not the person she wishes to meet."
Lei Zhen squinted his eyes slightly, clearly a bit displeased with this Griselda.
Does she really need to act like some haughty wealthy miss as revenge for the previous encounter?
Sure, he might have treated her poorly during their first encounter, but he was a chancellor in name at that time, and she was a stranger.
Nevertheless, Lei Zhen learned a very valuable lesson today: never mess with women because they are extremely petty.
Boarding on the flying car, the driver soon activated the engine and the nitro equipped with it, boasting a speed of Mach 15.
Mach 15 speed might sound impressive, but in the current era, Mach 15 was considered above average.
With the modernized mechanic and protective barrier of the flying car, going at this speed doesn't affect the passenger one bit. It was as smooth as riding in a normal car or sailing in a boat.
"How much longer will we reach your so-called Miss?" Lei Zhen asked, seemingly feeling cheated in a way.
Griselda claimed that he was close, but needed him to board a Mach 15 flying car to go to her.
How was that "close" in any way or form?
"Haha, rest assured, we will arrive in 10 minutes or so at this speed." The driver reassured him, not daring to show any disrespect to him.
At the same time, he wondered in his mind, 'Why would Miss suddenly want to meet a man one on one?'
Despite his curiosity, the driver didn't dare to voice his mind out, lest he might lose his career.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Time slowly passed by, and the driver landed the flying car on the rooftop of a hotel.
Lei Zhen opened the door, only to see a bunch of hotel staff greeting him and bowing their heads slightly.
"What is with this commotion?" Lei Zhen muttered and twitched his brows.
