Chapter 205
Five minutes later, at Platinum Apartments—
It was indeed a large, high-end property. As Ye Ning stepped out of the taxi, she was instantly struck by the palpable sense of class distinction.
Yes, the people living here must all be capitalists like that man, and her?
She was just an ordinary citizen, which naturally made the class distinction all the more apparent.
After exiting the taxi, she checked the apartment number she had noted down. She initially wanted to go straight in to pick up her child, but then she thought that since that man had taken care of her child for the whole day and even treated him to a meal, she stopped by the supermarket next to the neighborhood and bought an imported fruit basket.
Imported, he wouldn’t look down on that, would he?
With the fruit basket in hand, she finally entered and found her way to Mingcui Pavilion where Xiaobao had told her he was.
"Hello, I’m here to see Mr. Ou in apartment 1101, may I come in?"
"Mr. Ou?"
The security guard sitting behind the security door sized her up and asked, "Are you here to clean their house? Wasn’t it already cleaned at noon today?"
To clean?
Did she look that bad?
She looked down at herself, feeling a flare of frustration, "No, I have something to discuss with him, just help me open the door, that’s all."
"That’s not possible, we can’t let you in unless you have the fingerprints of the owner or the owner has notified us in advance."
"You..."
Ye Ning had never imagined that the apartment complex had such stringent requirements, and she found herself angrily stamping her feet on the spot.
Fortunately, at this moment, another person sitting next to the security guard noticed Ye Ning’s outfit and pondered, "Mr. Ou is the company’s CEO; it’s possible that an employee has come to see him. Here’s what we can do: press the call button to his apartment on the intercom and ask if he’s aware of this matter." noveldrama
"Okay!" It was only then that the security guard dialed the intercom system for them.
Standing there, Ye Ning saw that once the intercom connected, a cold male voice said, "Let her in!" and finally, the door was opened.
What kind of place was this? Was the entrance designed to be this paranoid, as if everyone was a thief?
Carrying the fruit basket, Ye Ning soon took the elevator to the 11th floor and, using the apartment number, found the apartment.
This was her first time at his apartment. She had been to Blue Mountain Villa and Orchid Garden before, but she had never been to his apartment. Now standing here, she didn’t know if it was because she felt guilty for having done something wrong or for some other reason, but she felt somewhat nervous.
"Ding-dong—"
"Uncle, it’s Mom! I’ll open the door!"
The doorbell rang, and soon after, she heard the voice of a child inside running to the door. In a moment, the ivory-colored door was opened from the inside.
"Mom, you’re finally here, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!"
As the door opened, there he was, the little figure she had missed the entire day. Seeing her at the door, he flew towards her like a little swallow, full of joy.
Ye Ning, seeing him, quickly put down the fruit basket and crouched down to hug him: "I’m sorry, baby, Mom is late, it’s all Mom’s fault, I shouldn’t have gone out today when you were discharged from the hospital."
"It’s okay, the uncle visited me at the hospital today and took me out for lots of yummy food, and he also took me out to play. Look, Mom, we bought so many things."
