President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 397

I opened the shoe cabinet. There were two pairs of cotton slippers in it. One pair was blue and the other was pink.

And there were two pairs of ordinary plastic slippers. One pair was blue and the other was pink.

I remembered they weren’t here when I lived here.

I took out those pink slippers.

A little slip of paper fell out. I picked it up and saw it said, “remember to wear cotton slippers in winter. Keep warm and don’t catch cold.”

There was no date on it.

I put on the slippers and opened the closet. The clothes inside were all new. There were home clothes and bathrobes for different seasons.

The table was full of brand new advanced cosmetics.

I was confused and went to the kitchen.

There was a pink note on the fridge, “there’s pudding in the fridge.”

I opened the refrigerator and saw that there were really two boxes of pudding in it.

I took a look at the date.

Yesterday.

Seeing this time, my heart became cold.

What did it mean? Did Ming come here often?

It immediately made me feel terrible, but I was a little excited. If I could see Ming, could I let him let me go?

But soon I woke up.

I thought of Arthur’s attitude. He was just moving himself.

He just wanted me to beg him.

I shook my head and took out a big box. I put all the new things in the box, including cosmetics and clothes.

One box was not enough, so I used two!

Finally, I used two big boxes to load all the things Ming gave me. I found a piece of paper and wanted to write a note telling Ming that I sold the house, but I hesitated and threw the paper away.

I called security and changed a lock on the door.

Then I put these things at Ming’s door.

I didn’t mean to give it back, but I didn’t want to use his things and I didn’t want to leave them for Jessica.

I cleaned the house and carried a small bag of my things to the security office. I put the key there and left.

It was evening and it was time to get off work.

I stood at the gate of the community and wanted to take a taxi to Sherry’s house.

There were cars coming and going at the gate. I had been holding those things for a long time. There was no empty car.

And I couldn’t use the software to take a taxi.

For the first time, I realized that maybe I should learn to drive.

I didn’t think driving was a necessary skill before. Now it seemed that this skill was really a necessary skill at some time.

When I stood at the door to take a taxi, I saw a familiar car parked in front of me.

When I saw this car, my breathing slowed down.

Ming’s car.

I saw the back door open slowly. Ming sat in the back seat and still smiled and asked me, “where are you going? I’ll drive you.”

“No!”

I immediately refused and nervously turned around and left.

Then I heard the closing of the door. I was not sure if Ming got out of the car or if he closed and left. I dared not look back. I held the bag in my hand and walked on.

But soon I heard his footsteps catching up.

I saw Ming come to me and say in a soft voice, “you can’t get a taxi now.”

He seemed to say, “you can’t escape.”
