Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle! Chapter 647 - 564: Your Aunt (Mother’s Sister)?

Li Si took a deep breath, calming her restless emotions before answering the phone.

"Hello! Ruotong!"

A rapid voice ca through from the other end—it was Wang Ruotong: "Li Si, I’m really sorry! I just found out myself. My aunt didn’t know we were good friends. She had so issue with her face and took people to your place to cause a scene. Did she give you trouble?"

Li Si was utterly stunned: "Your aunt?"

So, that woman was a relative of Wang Ruotong?

"Yes! You’ve even t my uncle once—rember him? It was at that clubhouse we went to with my mom last ti. He’s the owner!"

Only then did Li Si finally understand sothing—the woman nad Wan Qiu was actually Wang Ruotong’s aunt, and her uncle was soone she had briefly t before: Liu Yuanqing!

No wonder when that woman nad Qingchi ntioned Yuan Qing, it sounded familiar!

"How can this be so coincidental?" Li Si rubbed her forehead in exasperation. What kind of situation was this?

Why was it that everyone she knew seed to have such intertwined connections? Was the Beijing circle really this small?

If Wang Ruotong’s aunt knew the woman nad Yayun, could it be possible they knew the Yin Family as well?

These thoughts flashed through her mind.

"Yes! I was just as shocked when my uncle called earlier. I don’t know why my aunt acted on impulse and did sothing like that.

Li Si, for my sake, please don’t get upset. I’m heading to your clubhouse right now. Let’s talk face-to-face, okay?"

Li Si responded lightly: "I’m out handling so matters today, so I can’t make it back. Besides, I’m not mad. Your aunt is probably still at the clubhouse. If you’re worried, you can go check on things yourself."

"Oh, okay then! Li Si, let’s et another day!"

"Alright!"

After hanging up, Li Si stared out of the car window as the vehicle slowed noticeably. Up ahead, Jiang Tong glanced at her gingerly through the rearview mirror.

Li Si rubbed her fingers a few tis before noticing his subtle movents. She suddenly spoke in a calm but firm tone: "Turn around! Head to Mo Si!"

"Yes, madam!" Jiang Tong exhaled in relief.

Although there were so things he didn’t fully understand, he could sense that destination might involve the boss’s private matters.

Having worked beside Li Si for so long, it was the first ti he had seen her lose composure like this.

Li Si turned her head back to the window, a bitter smile tugging at her lips.

At this mont, she had lost the courage to confirm things herself.

She admitted she was feeling cowardly at the last step before taking action.

If it hadn’t been for Wang Ruotong’s call, she might have recklessly charged forward relying on her intense emotions.

But after calming down and thinking it over, what good would it do if she went and found out the truth firsthand? If the person was really there, was she supposed to battle it out with Qin Xin? Play out the drama of a rightful wife versus the mistress?

What point would such chaos have?

In the end, the one who sent her that ssage would just relish the spectacle with malicious delight.

Besides, was it even fair to pin all the bla on one woman when such things happened?

If the man hadn’t been interested or hadn’t given her an opportunity, what could Qin Xin possibly amount to?

That’s why she decided to confront Leng Mochen directly. She needed to ask him face-to-face what he was really doing!

If he had truly fallen for soone else, then she’d rather walk away with Buding gracefully than stoop to compete for his love. That would make her seem far too deaning—and undeserving of the chance heaven gave her to relive life.

In her previous life, she had been deeply hurt by ng Zijun and Li Fei. If it wasn’t for Leng Mochen’s subtle yet repeated acts of kindness that gradually touched and opened her heart, how could she have accepted him so easily, let alone quickly beco engaged, pregnant, and married?

She had only just graduated from university, after all!

No matter what happened in the past, in this lifeti she was right at the pri of her youth as a young woman.

So, this ti, the love she wanted had to be exclusive and pure—without a single blemish!

Jiang Tong, on the surface, was both her protector and driver. But as the brother of Jiang Feng, could anything truly stay hidden from him?

Earlier, she had taken note of his nervousness.

Even if she didn’t go to that place today to confirm whether it was real, there was undoubtedly still soone deliberately scheming to sow discord between her and Leng Mochen.

They were the closest person to each other—why shouldn’t she be proactive in seeking him out for a talk?

Sotis, even things seen with one’s own eyes might not be the truth. What if there was so hidden reason behind it all?

Thinking this way eased her mood sowhat. Deep down, she trusted Leng Mochen greatly, as he had always been dependable throughout their ti together.

But won are often like this—once they fall in love, they beco anxious and insecure, especially when dealing with a creature like an "ex-girlfriend."

On the other side, Wang Ruotong hung up the phone with visible displeasure over Li Si’s indifference. She pouted and complained to Liu Manlian, who stood next to her: "Mom! Look! I said sothing nice, but Li Si didn’t appreciate it at all! If I’d known, I wouldn’t have made the call. Let Aunt handle things herself. Anyway, she always takes those other ladies with her and won’t suffer any losses."

When she first heard about it, she had felt worried for Li Si. Her aunt and her friends were pri examples of typical nopausal won—well-maintained on the surface but indistinguishable from common shrews when they acted unreasonably.

To be honest, her uncle was such a nice person, yet he ended up marrying soone like her aunt. It truly felt unfair.

But then again, her aunt’s family had influence, so it was probably a mutually beneficial arrangent.

Trying to soothe her, Liu Manlian patted Wang Ruotong’s shoulder and patiently advised: "Tongtong! Don’t act childish. Your uncle called and said your aunt’s facial issue is quite serious. First, he wants Li Si to take our acquaintance into account and treat her with extra care. Second, he wants her to know about our family connection in advance. This way, there won’t be any awkward encounters going forward."

With her own husband in politics and her plans to start a luxury boutique, building connections was essential. Li Si’s won’s clubhouse offered a ready-made resource that she could leverage.

The won who frequented that place—weren’t they all from powerful or wealthy backgrounds?

If she put in just a bit of effort, the benefits for her would be trendous.

"Mom! Even so, I don’t quite understand Uncle’s thinking. His family isn’t lacking in wealth, so why is he so eager to curry favor with Li Si’s family? He even lets Aunt go there to buy mberships and spend money! I an, Li Si’s husband might be capable, but in business, it’s not all about personal connections. And what can she even do for us anyway?"

Wang Ruotong was puzzled. In her impression, Li Si was still the gentle little girl she had always known.

Liu Manlian spread her hands in resignation: "Your uncle didn’t tell your aunt much in advance either. You know I’m planning to open a boutique for luxury handbags, and we’re keeping it a secret from her for now.

Nobody expected your aunt would act out like this and even take people to cause a scene. She didn’t go ho last night, so your uncle wasn’t aware of the incident. If it weren’t for one of your aunt’s friends texting him, he wouldn’t have even known after finishing his etings. This whole thing could’ve stayed hidden from us for even longer!"

Feeling irritated, Wang Ruotong said impatiently: "Mom! Stop talking, please! I’m already annoyed! But now I’m wondering—was it really Li Si’s clubhouse that caused my aunt’s facial issues?"
