n Chao, while making a mocking laugh, said, "She gives up a great future to be with a guy like Long Wang, what is she really after?"
"n Chao, you are a man. For example, if Miss Xu were to stay in bed all day, officially she is your wife, you wouldn’t treat her any differently. But n Chao, you’re a man, a normal man, you couldn’t possibly have just..."
"Yin Li, I am , and she is her," n Chao interrupted her. "Let tell you, this Su Xiaofeng is definitely not a simple person; she’s a smart woman. To put it bluntly, she and I are sowhat alike in certain ways."
As Yin Li listened to n Chao’s words, she first furrowed her brows, then showed surprise.
Could it be, could n Chao have taken an interest in Su Xiaofeng? Although they had only had a few symbolic encounters, there didn’t seem to be anything special between them. How could n Chao be so concerned about Su Xiaofeng?
"What do you an by that?"
"This Long Wang is probably not simple either. Focus your investigation on him, see who this Long Wang really is, and who is behind him."
"n Chao, Su Xiaofeng is a young woman. It’s normal for her to think about being with a compatible young man."
"No, other won might think that way, but she wouldn’t," n Chao asserted firmly.
So, in this situation, the problem lies either with Su Xiaofeng or with Long Wang.
Yin Li felt so pain in her heart as she listened to his words.
She had never seen n Chao care about anyone so much before; was Su Xiaofeng the first to stir his heart?
Was he falling for that woman, Su Xiaofeng? Is that it?
"Alright, I’ll focus on investigating the interactions between Long Wang and Su Xiaofeng during this period." Despite the heartache, Yin Li would not neglect the tasks n Chao had entrusted to her.
"This woman is very cunning; it might also be a smokescreen she’s set up to make us believe there’s sothing between her and Long Wang when in fact there isn’t," n Chao explained as if to clarify for soone else, "You can go now."
Yin Li nodded, preparing to take the photographs with her as she left.
"Leave them here."
Yin Li paused for a mont, then stepped back and left.
n Chao looked at the woman in the photograph, her skin was fairer than snow, her eyes were bright and shining, and the man beside her naturally held her hand. Their gesture seed as if it had been practiced hundreds of tis.
Honestly, if he didn’t know Su Xiaofeng, he would find the scene quite appealing.
But as he looked at it, he found it not at all appealing, but rather irritating.
Su Xiaofeng, oh Su Xiaofeng, what kind of woman are you really, and how sincere are your feelings for Ye Cheng?
...
"Is your boss here?" Lan Shuixian stood at the entrance of the supermarket, asking the staff inside.
Manman recognized Lan Shuixian, and with a smile responded, "Our boss isn’t here right now. If you need to see her, co back tomorrow; she should be here then."
The shop was running smoothly; the boss only ca by occasionally to check on things.
Lan Shuixian nodded, "Then I’ll co back tomorrow."
Xiaofeng had given her a phone number during their previous eting, but Xiaofeng was so busy, calling her at this ti might not even reach her.
Forget it, she would co back tomorrow. Xiaofeng had lent her a lot of money last ti, and for sothing as big as opening a new store, surely Xiaofeng should be there to help choose the opening date.
Just as she was about to leave, a voice stopped her: "Shuixian."
Upon hearing the voice, Lan Shuixian turned around joyfully, "Xiaofeng, have you been very busy recently?"
"Yes, I’ve been building a factory out of town; there’s quite a lot to do, so I haven’t been here much."
"I knew it; you are always so busy," Lan Shuixian said with a smile. "I’m starting to renovate my little shop, and the workers said it will be ready in a week. I need your help to choose a good day for the opening."
"That’s wonderful, choosing a good date for the opening is very important indeed."
"I thought so too," Lan Shuixian raised her head and instinctively glanced at the sun in the sky. The next second, she felt dizzy and blacked out, knowing nothing else.
