Chapter 457 - COLLIDE: PART I

It was late in the evening when Elizabeth and Wang Ji visited a nearby restaurant to have dinner. They've visited quite a lot of places such as: the set she worked on during her movies, hotel and restaurant that they've visited, places she did her photoshoot and more. Wang Ji was happy to accompany the girl through all those places since it helped the girl regain a piece of her muddled up memory. 

One place they weren't able to go to was Yun Shen's home. Since when they got there it wasn't Yun Shen house and someone else lived in the place which helped solve one of the mysteries about the man. 

"Li Zi, do you have other places you still wish to visit?" Wang Ji asked whilst he finishes his meal. 

Elizabeth took a gulp of the juice to clear her mouth before answering his question. "Hmm, I'll call mother first that will be home late." 

"Sure, go ahead." 

The girl left the table and looked for a quiet place to call her mother. It didn't take long before her mother answered the phone. "Yeah, I have one more place to visit then I'll head home." 

"Alright then, should I save some food for you?"

"No need, me and Manager Wang are having dinner already." 

"Take care then." 

Elizabeth was relieved that her mother still allowed her to stay so late at night especially not a lot of the guards were following her. Also, anytime she could just slip away and vanish again. But, of course she won't do that seeing she is quite close to solving all the mystery. 

Manager Wang paid the bill as he saw the girl returning back after her call. "So where are we heading." 

"To my old place."

"Ah- Hmmm, we might have trouble visiting that one." 

"How come?" 

Inside the car, Wang Ji was on the wheel whilst he was explaining to Elizabeth the reason as to why they might not be able to visit her old place. It confused her as to why she couldn't when it was hers in the first place. 

"Since you left, the building was untouched. But then, even your parents didn't bother with it. They did take all your belongings and then afterwards left the building under the company's care since it was named after Li Zi and not yours." 

"Ah, so that's why." 

"From what the president mentioned a few days ago, he said his relatives will be staying there and I'm not sure it's a good idea to visit the place anymore." 

"If that's the case, I'll just visit the building and not bother the person living there anymore." 

"Then, let's go." 

It didn't take long before they arrived at her place. The building has not changed but the surrounding has. There were quite some new buildings around which surprised her.

"There's quite a lot of new buildings here."

"Ah, a lot of things did change whilst you were gone." He chuckled humorously seeing how surprised the girl is with all the changes. 

"Then, I'll be back." Elizabeth said as she got out of the car and entered the building. 

As she reached the top floor where her old place stood, her chest started to feel tight and she couldn't explain why. She was walking slowly to the door when she suddenly heard the elevator sound. 

A man stepped out of the elevator and was stunned to see a woman standing right in front of him. At the same time, she was heading to the door. He was curious about who she could be. 

"Excuse me, can I help you?" He said. 

Elizabeth turned around with a fake pleasing smile on her face. She buried the emotions she was feeling earlier and responded to the man's question, "I'm sorry, I heard before that this place was owned by a famous actress. I'm on holiday and wished to visit." 

The man was gobsmacked to be face with a foriegn. He suddenly change his tone of speaking towards her and spoke in the same english language. "Miss, your right. She used to live there but since she left the place is now being occupied by someone else. I'm sorry to inform you but she's not here."

"Oh, I'm a big fan of hers and I wish to meet her someday. Then, I'll be going." 

President Chen watches as the girl leaves. He was still floating in the air as he entered the room. He was so happy to be faced with such a beautiful lady. He went to search for the man resting and started bragging about it. "Yo, Cris you won't believe it. I met one of Li Zi's fans and she was a beauty. I swear, I'll marry a foriegn man. I wonder which family she was, she was so goddamn beautiful no worries can explain her beauty at all." 

"Did you wake me up just for that?" Cris looked coldly and furious at the man as he turned his back at him and went back to sleep. 

"Man, why can't you be happy for me. But it was strange though, when I was looking at her I almost thought she was Li Zi. But, of course it wasn't her because the girl has beautiful sapphire eyes."

Cris's body automatically turned after hearing what the man said. He grabbed him and asked, "What did you say?"

"She beautiful and no words can ex-"

"Not that idiot, about her eyes." 

"Ah- she has beautiful sapphire eyes and her hair..."

"The color of sunset brown."

"Wait, how did you know? Wait, did you actually talk to her earlier. I mean, she was standing by the door."

"You idiot, you actually don't know who that person is?" Cris sighs disappointedly as he runs out of his room to search for the girl leaving President Chen confused about everything. 

"Hey, wait for me." 

Elizabeth had entered the car and was still gazing at the building. 

"Is something wrong Li Zi?" 

"No, let's go home, Manager Wang. It's late and you still have work tomorrow." 

Wang Ji started the car and left without any hesitation. At the same time, two men came running out of the building and were able to take a glimpse at the car that's left. 

"That's the same car that visited the company earlier?" Cris spoke after noticing the familiar plate number on the car. 

"How sure are you?" President Chen asked all out of breath as he tried to stand up. 

"I remembered the number plate. Which just means, the person you spoke to earlier was the Young Princess." 

President Chen stood straight like a soldier and shouted in shock at the man. "WHAT! WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY? I SPOKE WITH THE YOUNG PRINCESS?" 

"Idiot, didn't you mention that this Li Zi looked almost like Lady Zhao." 

"Yeah, they thought but what does it have to do with the Young Princess?" 

"Everyone all knows that the Young Princess is a..."

"A female version of Lord Knigthley." 

President Chen suddenly pictured the girl once again and then compared it to Lord Knightley's image. As he realized it, both of them did look alike. His leg suddenly loses strength as he collapses on his knees. "Did I just disrespect the Young Princess. Cris, what should I do? I can't bring harm to my family. I'm already bring them to their grave by helping." 

The man was unable to finish his words when he noticed the cold and serious look on the man's face. As he was about to apologize the man spoke which relieved him.

"Why would she come here?" Cris asked, confused as to why she suddenly started visiting places that's related to Li Zi. 

"Who knows, she did mention she was a fan of Li Zi." President Chen went along with what Cris was saying in order to avoid harm. 

"This does not make sense…" The man started heading back inside, leaving President Chen left wondering to himself. 

"Wait, what-" He chased after the man confused why it does not make sense if the Young Princess visits the places Li Zi used to be at. When didn't Li Zi and the Zhao and Knightley family have a good relationship? "Cris, you might not know this but Li Zi did have a good relationship with the Young Princess's family."

"But, isn't their relationship just too good? Plus, it does not make sense why she'll suddenly visit all this place. There must be a reason…" 

President Chen didn't like how Cris was looking at him. He knew it could only mean one thing and it means work. "Fine, I'll go check on things but let me warn you, this won't be easy. She is the Young Princess and is the granddaughter of one of the most powerful men in the country. She'll surely be hard to track…"

"Don't worry, just find out when she returned."

"Why is that important."

���You might not believe me, but I think she's the girl I'm looking for."

"WHAT?"
