Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qian Xun looked in the direction of s.h.i.+ Ze’s leaving car with a curious expression—did he truly not know who s.h.i.+ Guang was or did he have other intentions?
And s.h.i.+ Guang did not seem as though she knew his ident.i.ty either?
That was interesting!
She turned around and caught sight of her a.s.sistant who rushed to her immediately. “I lied to Miss s.h.i.+. She’s waiting for Rong Mo in his makeup room.”
Qian Xun nodded her head and marched forth.
Opening the door of the makeup room, she saw s.h.i.+ Guang holding up her chin with her hands, looking in the mirror seemingly lost in her thoughts.
The moment s.h.i.+ Guang heard someone entering, she turned around with a smiling face. But when she saw that it was Qian Xun, that smile disappeared immediately.
“My, my… What’s with that att.i.tude? Are you truly that disappointed seeing me?” Qian Xun walked in front of s.h.i.+ Guang and remanded her in displeasure.
“Do you have anything?” s.h.i.+ Guang asked moodily. Even though Qian Xun had doubted her earlier on, she could sense that the latter bore no ill intents.
“Of course! It’s regarding s.h.i.+ Ze.” Qian Xun said as she sat down opposite s.h.i.+ Guang while removing her coat.
s.h.i.+ Guang could not help but roll her eyes. “You’re truly overthinking things. Why would you think that I would want to seduce s.h.i.+ Ze? Ridiculous.”
“Fufufu, it was just a joke. You don’t have a sense of humor at all.” Qian Xun shot her a look.
s.h.i.+ Guang: “…”
The f*ck? Who in the world would joke with something like this?
Her lips could not help but cramp up as she looked at Qian Xun expressionlessly, waiting for her to say something. Yet, Qian Xun suddenly changed the topic and asked her, “You’re here to look for Rong Mo?”
s.h.i.+ Guang nodded her head. “Right, I’m here for him and not you. It has nothing to do with your fiancé either.”
She emphasized her innocence once more and hoped that Qian Xun would not blindly guess.
The latter gave a knowing smile. “You were here for Rong Mo the other time around as well, right…? Why are you always here for him? If you don’t fancy s.h.i.+ Ze, don’t tell me that you fancy Rong Mo?”
s.h.i.+ Guang nearly spat out blood as she refuted right away, “Of course not! I’m here to look for Rong Mo for something important. Can’t you just stop taking things the wrong way?”
“Ooooooooooooh,” Qian Xun stretched her reply and chuckled out.
“What are you laughing at?” s.h.i.+ Guang stood up. “I’m going to go look for Rong Mo.”
“He has already returned home long ago.”
“And you had your a.s.sistant make me wait here for him?” s.h.i.+ Guang’s eyes widened in incredulity as she looked at Qian Xun. “You’re messing with me on purpose?”
“Of course not! Didn’t I say earlier on? I’m chatting with you about s.h.i.+ Ze.” With that, Qian Xun’s expression turned curious. “Honestly, that’s strange! Has Lu Yanchen never mentioned to you about anything regarding this man?”
s.h.i.+ Guang blinked. “Why would he have to?”
Why did the way Qian Xun spoke about him sound as though he had some sort of a relations.h.i.+p with Lu Yanchen?
Qian Xun waved it off. “No wonder… So, you really know nothing.”
s.h.i.+ Guang coughed out. “Other than knowing Lu Yanchen, does that s.h.i.+ Ze have any other relations.h.i.+p with him?”
Qian Xun chuckled. “s.h.i.+ Ze’s mother and Lu Yanchen’s mother are good friends, seemingly with some blood relation as well. s.h.i.+ Ze’s mother should be considered as Lu Yanchen’s auntie-in-law. As for what exactly went down, I’m not entirely sure. But, I heard that because of Lu Yanchen, s.h.i.+ Ze’s father pa.s.sed away. As for Lu Yanchen, he nearly lost his life for s.h.i.+ Ze as well. Thereafter, it was only after s.h.i.+ Ze’s mother knelt down in front of the Lus that Old Master Lu did not pursue the matter anymore. However, the relations.h.i.+p between the two families soured from then on.”
