The craftsmen at Zhong's Jewelry were quite skilled, and coupled with the fact that it had been personally requested by Zhong Niangyao, the engraved ornament was ready in just a few days.
After school, Zhong Niangyao went to pick up the carved ornament and was planning to go home. She didn't ask her family driver to come for her; instead, she hailed a taxi.
However, she barely got in the car when she sensed something was wrong. The road the taxi was taking wasn't the usual route she took home, and the driver seemed to be continually observing her through the rearview mirror.
Although she didn't know what was happening, she could guess that someone was up to something. She wondered who lacked the brains to target her, which was indeed quite foolish.
With that thought, Zhong Niangyao pretended to be engrossed in her phone, oblivious to everything, but the corners of her mouth lifted into a meaningful arc.
