BXBX NOVEL Chapter 330: She Remembered, She Had Seen It Before
Shen Siyuan felt irritated and frowned, just as she was about to speak.
She heard her best friend beside her exclaim in surprise, “Who is that woman? Didn’t the manager just say that Mr. Li insisted on clearing the place?”
“He didn’t even give you face, so how come there’s a woman walking this way?”
Shen Siyuan looked in the direction her friend was pointing subconsciously and met Rong Yan’s gaze head-on.
She was taken aback and reflexively said, “She’s not…”
“You know her?” Xu Chun looked at her in surprise and asked, “Who is this woman, and how come I’ve never seen her before?”
Shen Siyuan felt a mess inside her and didn’t know how to explain to her friend.
She had seen those eyes before—the eyes were so beautiful that they had left a deep impression on her. So deep that even though she hadn’t clearly seen the face of their owner, she remembered those eyes.
She remembered seeing this woman at the base of Shengxiao’s company building. She had been back in the country for several weeks and had not seen him yet, so she couldn’t hold back any longer and took the initiative to go to Li Group.
At that time, a young woman carrying a takeout food container was stopped by the receptionist from entering.
She had a particularly strong memory of it.
She remembered Assistant Gu telling her that Shengxiao was in a bad mood and asked her to leave first. When she left, she saw the woman waiting in the company’s rest area as if waiting for someone.
What was she doing here?
Could it be that the person she was waiting for was Shengxiao?
The image of the woman delivering food overlapped with the tall man she had seen on the day of her return, hugging someone in his arms. She pursed her lips tightly, and an answer she didn’t want to think about but seemed very likely appeared in her mind—the rumor outside was that Shengxiao had recently been accompanied by a mysterious woman; it must be her!
“They didn’t clear the place at all, this is too much; I’m going to ask what’s going on!” Xu Chun couldn’t contain her pride and wanted to intercept the person.
Shen Siyuan grabbed her, “Don’t go.”
“Siyuan, what are you doing?” Xu Chun turned back, confused and frowning, as if she couldn’t understand what Siyuan was thinking. She said, “You and Mr. Li are the couple, what’s the deal with that woman? Aren’t you going to ask Mr. Li?”
Shen Siyuan recalled the drug she had administered in the water the night before, and thought of how the proud and distinguished man hadn’t touched her after she had taken off her jacket; she clenched her best friend’s arm tightly and said through gritted teeth, “You shouldn’t meddle, I’ll handle my own matters.”
“But…”
The mistress is bullying her to her face, and she’s not going to do anything about it?
Xu Chun really couldn’t understand what was going through her mind.
Only Shen Siyuan knew that there was never any romantic ambiguity between her and Li Shengxiao, and now it was even less likely.
“There’s no ‘but’. I will take care of it myself!”
Seeing her insistence, Xu Chun did not press further. She just stared at Rong Yan with an extremely disgusted look as she passed by—her eyes filled with revulsion.
Not until Rong Yan had walked a considerable distance did she suddenly say as if she had just remembered something, “Hiss, this face, why do I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere before?”
Shen Siyuan’s mind was already a million miles away, not taking her friend’s words to heart.
It was only when her friend exclaimed, “I remember now. Isn’t she the little star making headlines recently? What’s her name, Rong something… Just look it up on your phone, you’ll know.”
