Chapter 2 : New House

Moments later, the black BMW finally came to a stop in front of a tall white building with magnificent large windows.

Without waiting for Lie Wei , Ning Xi opened the door and steps out of the car. She gaze up at the tall building while rain trickle down on her.

Even with the grey clouds and rain, the building still looked eye catching and stood like a painting. Looking very magnificent.

Lie Wei jogged over to his boss and open a black umbrella, putting it over her.

"Boss, your new place is here. " He said before handing Ning Xi a pair of black house keys.

"I don't wish to stay here permanently. You know how I've always been. I like peace and quiet." Ning Xi grabbed the umbrella handle and keys from Lie Wei before walking to the glass doors to enter the building.

"Hmm...." Lie Wei let out a sigh. His boss sure has been difficult to handle lately.

Before he could even take a step to follow his boss, her next words hit him like a huge rock.

"Lie Wei , I forgot my things at the airport. I need you to go back and retrieve it."

"Right away Boss."

He wanted to cry but really lacked the tears to shed. He thought, Boss, if you knew already, why didn't you say something before we left the airport. *sob*'

Entering the lobby, Ning Xi looked at the huge calligraphy fixture behind the front desk, 'Elite Penthouse'.

A young man at the age of twenty stood up immediately from the front desk when he saw Ning Xi enter the lobby.

In his entire twenty years of living, he has never seen such a beautiful goddess-like woman before. And she was even taller than him!!

Unlike all the wealthy ladies who lives here and like to dress in fancy designer clothes, this lady wore casual clothes, yet she still looked so mysterious and sophisticated.

He gulped, "Good Morning Miss. How can I assist you?"

Ning Xi glance down at the black house keys, there was a small tag attached to it, '1992'.

"I'm living in penthouse 1503." She said nonchalantly to the young man.

Hearing the number, the man almost choked on his own saliva. He stuck is daze.

"1992? Did I hear you say wrongly?"

With a frown, Ning Xi was constipating whether the young man in front of her should get his ears checked up.

"Yes, room 1992 . You did not hear wrongly."

The young man gulped, "Miss, I don't mean to be rude, but can I see an ID? It's just to confirm identification that you live there."

At his words, Ning Xi pout her lips in deep thinking. "My ID.. umm..." remembering she left her bags at the airport which contained her wallet, Ning Xi pinches the space between her brows.

Now how she handle this! .

"Sorry, my assistant is going back to get it."

Seeing the lady won't show him her ID, the young man could only sigh. "Miss, I'm sorry but—-."

*ding* the elevator doors opened and someone stepped out.

"Ling, what is going on?!" An old voice calls out.

Seeing who it is, the young man greets the Manager of Elite Penthouse .

"Manager Lu."

Ning Xi turn to see an old man with grey hair, he was wearing a black simple traditional Changsha top with military color trousers.

"Uncle Lu." She nods her head in respect.

Seeing the beautiful young girl, Manager Lu's eye beamed with surprise and joy.

"Hahah, Little Ning." Uncle Lu laughed as he walks over to Ning Xi . "I did not expect you to arrive so soon."

"I came early so I can make some arrangements." Ning Xi smiled.

Seeing that she was still in the lobby, Uncle Lu looked at the young man, "Why hasn't Miss Ning been taken to her housing?"

Nervous, the young man stutter in his words, "I was inquiring Miss Ning for her ID for proof of Resident.."

"ID?! She needs no reason to show her ID!" Uncle Lu raised his voice.

Cold sweat ran down the young man's back. Did he just do something wrong?

"Uncle Lu, its alright, he was only doing his job. I forgot my things at the airport and my assistant is currently going back to retrieve them, as of now, I do not have any proof of ID."

"Haaah..." Uncle Lu sigh. "No need. No need." He glares at the young man. "Miss Ning is a Owner Resident here. Give her the keys to her residence."

"Yes sir!" Salutes the young man. He then quickly search the key safe for the keys.

"No need to Uncle Lu. My assistant already handed me the keys he picked up yesterday." She raise her hand and show a set of black house keys.

Seeing the keys, the young man's eye nearly popped out of their sockets. He thought, 'Those really are the keys for the 1992!!!'

Uncle Lu smiled when he saw the keys. Ning Xi is the precious granddaughter of his best friend, he was thankful to have such friend , a friend who is the owner of this penthouse.

Despite having her other mansions she lives here , he feels honour to have her here.

He remember her childhood when she ran to catch him , whenever she saw him.He feels glad and feeling very joy. Coming out of his trains of beautiful memories . He orders .....

"Ling, take Miss Ning to her Residence."

"Right away sir!" Ling quickly answered. He almost caused a problem for an important person!! Hopefully he doesn't get fired. He ""sobbed""

"No need uncle Lu , I can manage on my own." Ning Xi said.

Uncle Lu nod his head in understanding. "I've made some preparations with your assistant in the penthouse. Please let me or the front desk know if there's anything not to your liking." I will change it for you.

"Mm. Thank you, uncle Lu."

Ning Xi bid goodbye and walk into the elevator that was open.

Watching the elevator doors closed, Ling was curious as to who the beautiful lady was, "

"Manager Lu, who was that woman just now?"
