My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 812 - : 812, is this hotel owned by you?
Chapter 812: 812, is this hotel owned by you?
Su Wanwan felt something wasn’t right, and seeing a few people looking like they were headed toward her, she quickly turned around and dashed for the restroom.
She moved so fast that she vanished in the blink of an eye, leaving those few people with nothing to do but sigh with envy.
One of them raised a question, “I heard that the crew was all fixed staff brought over from M Country by Yan Shunhua, so how does Ye Qitian happen to know her assistant?”
“They were just hugging each other a moment ago, clearly they have a close relationship!”
“If Ye Qitian manages to secure an audition, it must be because of this little assistant!”
“Backdoor deals, really?”
...
“Exactly, it’s so unfair!”
In the end, it was up to the staff to step in and speak up before order at the scene finally stabilized.
**
Su Wanwan treated it as a minor interruption and didn’t pay much attention.
She was soon called in by Mary.
This was on the first floor of the hotel, where for this audition, the organizers had specially transformed a room for auditions, spacious yet, apart from a few tables and chairs, the rest was left empty to give the artists ample space to demonstrate their talents.
Apart from the center stage, the room was dimly lit; Yan Shunhua was seated right in the middle, flanked by the assistant director and the producer, and beyond them, two executives from the Gu Family had been sent over.
Su Wanwan entered and quickly found a place at the back to sit and quietly observe.
One by one, the auditioning actors came in, introduced themselves, stated the role they were trying for, and then picked a scene to perform live without props.
Each performer had only a few minutes, and once they finished, there would be a question and answer session.
This process continued one after the other, and by the time it finally ended, it was already six in the evening.
Yan Shunhua’s eyes showed obvious signs of fatigue, yet she still promptly held a brief meeting to decide which impressionable actors would stay for a second audition.
Su Wanwan, responsible for taking notes, paused when she heard the name “Ye Qitian”.
The nominator was one of the executives sent by the Gu Family.
Yan Shunhua immediately rejected the idea, “He isn’t suitable for the second male lead, his acting is too poor.”
“What about the third male lead then?” another executive asked immediately.
Yan Shunhua didn’t respond.
Seeing her attitude, the executive grew displeased.
The assistant director interjected conciliatorily, “The third male lead is quite fitting indeed, he has the right looks and presence.”
The producer agreed, “Ye Qitian is quite popular right now; having him in this movie would definitely secure the box office.”
Seizing upon this opportunity, the executives revitalized, “Rest assured, Ye Qitian is currently our Gu Family’s favored artist, there will be no issues with cooperation.”
“He has a good image, perfect for the big screen.”
“Director Yan, you’re new here so you might not be aware, but Ye Qitian’s mother is from the Ming Family, and his two aunts are married into the Gu and Huo Families…”
Su Wanwan nearly succumbed to secondhand embarrassment.
So Ye Qitian was this well-connected. The entertainment industry really was a deep pond—all about one’s background…
Yet Yan Shunhua remained unmoved until the very end.
She valued this movie highly and had stringent demands for the cast.
The two executives from the Gu Family seemed somewhat disgruntled, but it was getting late, and Mary had already reserved the VIP room upstairs, so everyone got up and made their way upstairs to eat.
…
Upon leaving the audition room, Mary came up to Su Wanwan, “Wanwan, can you do me a favor and go to the hotel entrance to welcome General Manager Gu?”
“Sure,” Su Wanwan had met Gu Shaoting before and agreed immediately.
“Thank you so much, Wanwan. The Chairwoman can’t drink alcohol, so I must stay with her. I’ll leave Gu in your care,” she said.
“It’s no trouble, hurry on over,” Wanwan replied.
Mary nodded with a smile and quickly followed the others upstairs.
Meanwhile, Su Wanwan went outside the hotel and waited at the entrance for about fifteen minutes before Gu Shaoting finally arrived.
He came alone, carrying a suit coat in his hand and dressed in a crisply ironed shirt and trousers.
Although he was over forty, he was well-maintained, graceful, and elegant. There was a faint resemblance between him and Gu Huai’an in his brows and eyes. As he approached, Su Wanwan noticed several women around her couldn’t stop looking at him.
As a good friend of Yan Shunhua and the other half owner of the company, he had given off an aloof and serious impression during their last meeting.
Wanwan did not dare to be negligent, speaking with polite formality.
To her surprise, he initiated the conversation, “Miss Su, do you know Ye Qitian?”
Wanwan quickly replied, “I do, he’s my friend.”
“Is that so?” Gu Shaoting raised his eyebrows. “Then why have I heard that he calls you ‘Little Junior Sister’?”
Wanwan felt somewhat awkward, “We met at a Judo gym. He’s older than me and we share a master, so he’s always called me Little Junior Sister.”
Gu Shaoting nodded, “Not many girls like to practice Judo.”
Wanwan smiled, “Yeah.”
Seeing that she didn’t want to talk in detail, Gu Shaoting did not continue the conversation.
They arrived at the stairwell, and just as Wanwan pressed the elevator button, someone called out from behind…
“Wanwan?”
Turning around, Su Wanwan saw Jiang Yi, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time.
She was dressed in an L Family dress with a square neckline, wearing high heels, carrying a designer bag, and her hair styled in a manner that screamed affluent sophistication.
“It really is you,” Jiang Yi approached quickly, her tone warm, “What a coincidence, are you here to have dinner with President Huo?”
Wanwan really didn’t care to engage with her.
Talk about enemies on a narrow road!
Even a simple meal could lead to running into someone she disliked!
Jiang Yi was used to Wanwan’s attitude and looked towards Gu Shaoting, “Hello, I am Wanwan’s aunt, might I ask who you are?”
She took the initiative to ask, usually prompting the other person to politely introduce themselves, and this man looked quite cultured, but…
Seeing that Su Wanwan had no intention of dealing with it, Gu Shaoting glanced at Jiang Yi and then looked away.
An awkward silence ensued.
Jiang Yi, extremely embarrassed, could only say, “Wanwan, your father is also upstairs having dinner…”
“The elevator’s here,” Su Wanwan interrupted her, “Mr. Gu, please.”
Gu Shaoting stepped inside the elevator.
Wanwan quickly followed, then promptly pressed the button to close the doors.
Jiang Yi: “…”
**
Gu Shaoting didn’t ask about Jiang Yi’s identity.
He seemed completely uninterested.
Wanwan was just fine with not having to explain. When the elevator reached the second floor, she held the door for the elders to exit first, and then led him to the reserved private room.
Pushing open the door, she heard the sound of people urging others to drink:
“Fill it up, fill it up!”
“If you don’t drink this cup, you’re not giving me face.”
“Exactly, everything is easier to discuss over a drink!”
“Any condition can be negotiated! Just as long as you drink this one cup!”
“Director Yan, come on…”
Su Wanwan took a few quick steps to the large round table.
First, she glanced over at Mary.
Then she reached out and picked up the cup of white spirit in front of Yan Shunhua, “I’m sorry, but our chairman is unwell and can’t drink. Let me drink this cup for her.”
Having said that, she downed the entire cup of white spirit in one go.
Setting down the cup, she noticed that everyone at the table seemed somewhat shocked and fell silent, looking at her.
So, Su Wanwan picked up the liquor bottle beside her and poured herself a full cup, “Here, I’ll toast to you all next.”
Everyone: “…”
“Wanwan!” Yan Shunhua finally reacted, stood up, and snatched the cup from her hand, “Stop drinking.”
Su Wanwan blinked, “Chairman, I can drink for you, I can hold my liquor very well.”
After saying this, she looked toward the two big shots across from her, “Could you reconsider the contract matter?”
“Wanwan, what contract are you talking about?” Yan Shunhua asked, puzzled.
At this moment, Gu Shaoting had already walked over. Hearing her question, he slightly raised his eyebrows, “Hasn’t the contract already been signed?”
“Exactly,” said Yan Shunhua, looking at Su Wanwan, “Wanwan, did you misunderstand something?”
Su Wanwan was already stunned.
Someone across the table let out a “Pfft” and laughed, “Director Yan, your assistant is really quite amusing, huh?”
Mary quickly explained, “Wanwan, did you get it mixed up? The contract they were talking about wasn’t with our company; our contract has already been signed with General Gu.”
Su Wanwan: “…”
The moment she walked in, she had heard those words and, recalling what Mary said about Yan Shunhua not being able to drink, she thought these big men were pressuring Yan Shunhua to drink in order to sign the contract…
Isn’t that how they always portray it on TV?
The people at the table were already laughing, “This little girl is quite fierce, huh?”
“To drink such a large cup of white spirit just like that? Impressive!”
“A heroine among women!”
“Such an impressive capacity for liquor!”
“Where is this young lady from?”
Gu Shaoting sat down casually, “So, are you still planning to urge Director Yan to drink tonight?”
“Not at all!”
“I’m afraid I’d be the one to pass out first!”
“Director Yan really has some talented people around him…”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
Her face turned red.
Not from the praise, but from… embarrassment!
Normally, that white spirit would be poured into everyone’s glass to sit there, and then they’d drink it slowly from little cups.
But not her; she downright gulped down the entire big cup of white spirit, and had Yan Shunhua not stopped her, she almost drank the second cup…
Just then, her phone rang, and Su Wanwan hurriedly said, “Excuse me, I need to take a call.”
Seeing her face flushed, Yan Shunhua was concerned, “Wanwan, are you alright? Do you feel dizzy?”
“No, I’m fine, I can hold my liquor very well…” Su Wanwan said with a laugh, then turned around and dashed out without looking back.
So embarrassing!
Yan Shunhua frowned with concern. She was about to stand up when someone came over, “Director Yan, regarding the promotion schedule for this film…”
**
The women’s restroom.
The call was from Huo Jingshen. After exchanging a few brief words with him, Su Wanwan hung up.
Then, she looked at herself in the mirror.
And thought back to the awkward moment in the private room…
Ahhh!
Am I an idiot, Su Wanwan?
However, at that moment, she really didn’t think about anything else. Her first thought was that the chairman was unwell! The chairman couldn’t drink! So she had to block the drinks for the chairman!
She was truly out of her mind!
…
The white spirit was too spicy. Su Wanwan rinsed her mouth and splashed her face with cold water, finally calming down.
Leaving the restroom and turning the corner, she saw two familiar people standing in the hallway outside.
One was Jiang Yi, whom she had recently met downstairs, and the other was Su Yuntang.
Moreover, the latter looked very upset, with red eyes and a strong smell of alcohol – clearly having drunk quite a bit.
When Jiang Yi saw Su Wanwan approaching, she quickly spoke with a smile, “Wanwan, your dad came straight over when he heard you were here to see you.”
“Oh,” responded Su Wanwan, “He’s seen me now, so goodbye.”
After that, she tried to leave.
“Stop right there!” Su Yuntang shouted, his voice sharp.
Not sure if it was the alcohol, but he made no attempt to hide his anger.
There were VIP private rooms on this floor, and next to them was a service desk; upon hearing the noise, two female service staff immediately looked over.
Not wishing to attract onlookers, Su Wanwan stopped, turned around, and looked at him, “Is there something else, Station Manager Su?”
Upon hearing the words “Station Manager Su,” Su Yuntang felt his blood pressure soar.
He had to struggle to keep his temper in check, “I’m asking you, why are you still here so late?”
“Do you own this hotel?” Su Wanwan retorted, “What right do you have to be here, but I cannot be?”
This hotel belonged to the Mo Family’s properties, so it obviously wouldn’t be Su Yuntang’s.
And Su Yuntang’s face turned even uglier at her words, “Who did you come with?”
Su Wanwan glanced at Jiang Yi.
The snake was stirring up trouble again!
“Why are you looking at her? Feeling guilty?” Su Yuntang immediately snapped.
Enduring her temper, Su Wanwan replied, “I came with a leader.”
“Which leader?”
“The leader from the internship company.”
“Male or female?”
Su Wanwan’s pretty face darkened, “What exactly do you want to ask?”
Seeing that she was unwilling to answer, Su Yuntang’s suspicions at the bottom of his heart were instantly confirmed, “Jiang Yi said she saw you entering with a man in his forties, how do you explain that?”
“What’s there to explain? What is there that needs explaining? Even if I explained, would you listen?” Su Wanwan fired back a series of rhetorical questions, concluding, “In the end, don’t you still only choose to believe that wretched woman’s words?”
Being called a wretched woman, a flicker of hatred flashed across Jiang Yi’s eyes. Then she lowered her head and explained with aggrievance, “Wanwan, you’ve misunderstood, I was only worried about you, so I told your father, I didn’t mean to tattle…”
“Wretched woman, shut your mouth!”
“You scoundrel!” Su Yuntang’s face turned red and his neck thickened, “How dare you speak to your elder like that?”
Jiang Yi held her husband back, “Yuntang, don’t be angry, it’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have told you about this, Wanwan is a good kid, I probably overthought it…”
Su Wanwan couldn’t stand watching the white lotus act, nor did she want to argue with these two any longer, “I’m going back first.”
“You stand right there!” Su Yuntang actually charged over, grabbing her arm, “Come back with me right now!”
“Are you sick or what?” Su Wanwan shook him off.
Perhaps not expecting Su Wanwan’s strength to be so great, and having drunk quite a bit of alcohol, Su Yuntang, already slightly unsteady on his feet, felt a sudden numbness in his arm and found himself thrown backward.
Jiang Yi, frightened, quickly supported him, “Yuntang, are you alright?”
Su Yuntang staggered a few times before steadying himself, his vision spinning, it took a long while before he recovered.
“Wanwan, no matter what, Yuntang is your father, how could you lay hands on him?” Jiang Yi accused.
Su Yuntang was still yelling, “I’m telling you to come back with me right now, do you hear me!”
“Have you had too much to drink?” Su Wanwan frowned.
“So now even I, as your father, can’t control you, is that it?” Su Yuntang pointed at her, his eyes bloodshot, looking every bit like a drunken fool.
“Don’t you find that laughable?” Su Wanwan said incredulously, “From childhood to now, when have you ever taken care of me? Now that I’m married, you actually want to control me? Let me tell you, I don’t need it!”
Done talking, she impatiently turned towards Jiang Yi, “He’s drunk, hurry up and take him away.”
It was clear as day, taking advantage of his drunkenness to make a scene!
Completely unreasonable.
Who knew Jiang Yi still wanted to persuade, “Wanwan, your father really has your best interests at heart, it’s so late, and it’s not appropriate for a girl like you to be in a hotel with a man. If someone with an agenda saw and it got out, the Huo Family would care about their reputation… Look at you, your face is all red, have you been drinking? It’s really not safe…”
All this nagging, full of insidious hypocrisy!
Su Wanwan rolled her eyes, unable to listen any longer, and walked away.
“Stop! You unfilial daughter! Stop right there!”
Staggering footsteps followed from behind.
Accompanied by Jiang Yi’s cries, “Yuntang, Yuntang don’t get agitated…”
Suddenly, Su Wanwan stopped in her tracks.
Because she saw a familiar figure standing in front of her…
In that moment of distraction, Su Yuntang had already caught up, and he raised his right hand.
The sound of the slap approached.
Looking at Yan Shunhua, Su Wanwan, in her surprise, somehow forgot to dodge.
“Slap!” A loud smack resounded as the slap struck her face.
“My God, Wanwan, are you all right?” Jiang Yi exclaimed with apparent shock, but she felt elated inside.
Ever since Su Wanwan married Huo Jingshen and reached the high branches of the Huo Family, the Su Family didn’t dare to offend her.
Furthermore, each time she returned home, Huo Jingshen would accompany her, and even Su Xueqin had to give way to this cold and arrogant rich heir by three points, naturally, Su Yuntang wouldn’t dare to treat her as before, readily resorting to violence and scolding.
Now, seeing the clear imprint of five fingers on Su Wanwan’s face, Jiang Yi’s pent-up anger from the past year seemed to suddenly break free, leaving her feeling exhilaratingly refreshed.
She struggled to suppress the corners of her mouth that were crazily upturning, and with feigned concern, she reached for Su Yuntang’s arm, not really exerting any force, “Yuntang, what are you doing? How can you hit a child like that?”
Su Yuntang was deep in his cups, and on top of that, he was in a fury, incapable of listening to any persuasion.
It was as if he had returned to the past.
Every time his daughter disobeyed, he would beat her.
The less obedient she was, the more he’d beat her.
After all, with enough beatings, she’d definitely become obedient.
Su Yuntang’s eyes reddened as he almost threatened, “Are you coming back with me or not?”
If Su Wanwan still refused to go back with him, he promised he would immediately slap her a second time.
So, he once again raised his right hand, “Answer me! Are you coming back with me or not?”
“Stop it!”
A crisp female voice suddenly rang out from ahead.
Su Yuntang looked up to see who it was.
The next second, he felt as if he had been struck hard with a stick; the alcohol effects vanished entirely, sobriety hitting him instantly.
His eyes fixated on the approaching woman, his expression froze, and the hand he had raised stayed suspended in mid-air, forgotten…
Jiang Yi was puzzled and hurriedly followed his gaze, her face also abruptly changing color.
Isn’t that…
“Chairman?” Su Wanwan, seeing Yan Shunhua, was a bit embarrassed.
When had the chairman arrived?
Could she have heard everything Su Yuntang and she had said?
To have been caught by a company executive in a confrontation with her father…
Yan Shunhua had already approached.
She was wearing a sleeveless, knee-length modified cheongsam that day, made of sky-blue embroidered fabric adorned with subtle patterns, with her shoulder-length hair giving off a gentle and graceful vibe, but her facial expression was somewhat stern.
Seeming to calm her emotions, Yan Shunhua asked, “Wanwan, do you need help?”
“There’s no need, Chairman,” Su Wanwan hurriedly declined. “I’m fine.”
“Your face is swollen like this and you say you’re fine?”
Hearing this, Su Wanwan reached up to touch her face.
It didn’t actually hurt.
Just now, she was so shocked to see Yan Shunhua that she forgot to dodge for a moment…
“I heard you arguing when I was coming over. Who are they? Are they causing you trouble?” Yan Shunhua asked again.
“It’s nothing, it’s already been dealt with,” Su Wanwan said nonchalantly.
Although her relationship with Su Yuntang was not good, family scandals should not be publicized; there was no need to let company leadership know.
Yan Shunhua frowned slightly, her gaze sweeping over to the two people beside them.
Jiang Yi was also scrutinizing her carefully.
Last time I saw the news, because it was a charity dinner, Yan Shunhua was dressed up in full attire, with heavy makeup, so Jiang Yi felt she looked very much like Ya Jin.
Especially those phoenix eyes that curled up and outwards, long and enchanting, they were exactly like those of Su Wanwan as if carved from the same mold.
Later, when she checked the information, she realized they were not the same person.
The Ya Jin in her memory was a girl who spoke softly, had a conservative personality, and because she was an orphan, she was very introverted, shy, and even felt inferior.
But this Yan Shunhua grew up abroad, her background and experiences were nothing short of legendary, and her excellent education made her appear extremely noble and elegant. That confident look in her eyes when she looked at people was something Ya Jin couldn’t compare with.
“You are Wanwan’s father, right?” Yan Shunhua looked at Su Yuntang, her gaze clear yet direct.
Su Yuntang didn’t answer.
He still stood there, staring at Yan Shunhua’s face, as if he was transfixed.
Jiang Yi felt uncomfortable inside and hurriedly tugged at his arm, “Yuntang! Miss Yan is talking to you.”
Su Yuntang finally snapped out of it, but his gaze couldn’t leave Yan Shunhua’s face, “You are…?”
“My name is Yan Shunhua, Wanwan is my assistant.”
Yan Shunhua?
Su Yuntang opened his mouth, still somewhat dazed in his mind.
Yan Shunhua had already turned to Jiang Yi, “May I ask what your relationship is with Wanwan?”
“I’m Wanwan’s… aunt.” While speaking, Jiang Yi’s hand was still tightly holding Su Yuntang’s arm.
Asserting ownership.
Yan Shunhua naturally saw this as well, “So that means, you are not Wanwan’s mother.”
Actually, what she said wasn’t wrong, but Jiang Yi, hearing her tone, somehow felt a bit uncomfortable, feeling like it implied she wasn’t Su Wanwan’s mother; that would mean she was the stepmother, the other woman…
But Su Yuntang had only ever married her, and she was the rightful daughter-in-law of the Su Family!
Ya Jin and Su Yuntang had never married, and if it hadn’t been for Su Xueqin desperately using all his connections to take Su Wanwan back from the orphanage that year, she wouldn’t have had to explain the complicated status of Su Wanwan to others over the past twenty years…
“In that case, let me explain.” Yan Shunhua, seemingly unaware that her remarks were inappropriate, swiftly explained, “Wanwan is my assistant. This afternoon, I and a producer were here for a casting session, and after finishing, we had a quick meal together. Since I can’t drink alcohol, Wanwan helped me take two drinks just now. This, as her leader, was my mistake, and I can assure you that such an incident will never happen again.”
She was neither servile nor overbearing, open in her manner, and even took on the fault voluntarily.
Su Wanwan hurriedly said, “Chairman, it’s not your fault, I wanted to drink.”
“I told you Wanwan is a good kid, it looks like we’ve all misunderstood.” Jiang Yi also quickly said, “Yuntang, now you can rest assured, right? Wanwan was here socializing with a female leader, it’s safe.”
After Yan Shunhua’s explanation, Su Yuntang also seemed to snap out of his shock, slowly nodding, “I understand now.”
Jiang Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, but then…
“Mr. Su, Wanwan is your daughter. If there is any misunderstanding between father and daughter, I suggest finding a place to sit down and communicate slowly instead of turning your speculations into facts. Moreover, as her father, you should have the basic trust and respect for your daughter, rather than believing the words of others, and lose your temper while drunk in public before knowing the truth.”
“Miss Yan, what do you mean by that?” Jiang Yi couldn’t help but say, “I am Wanwan’s elder, and I brought Yuntang to see her because I was worried about her. A young girl, so late at night in a hotel reeking of alcohol after drinking with men, anyone who saw would…”
“And before the truth was clear, Mr. Su just directly started hitting someone, isn’t that a bit too much?” Yan Shunhua interrupted her, her gaze still fixed on Su Yuntang.
Jiang Yi glanced at her husband, trying to help him explain, “Yuntang is just too worried about Wanwan, and he was drunk, a little agitated…”
“Being drunk and agitated are not reasons for violence.” Yan Shunhua interrupted again, “Wanwan is already twenty-one. If this can happen in the corridor, in front of so many servers, how can I not wonder if such behavior would only be worse in private?”
Jiang Yi’s face changed slightly, “Miss Yan, you’re really overthinking it, Yuntang was just angry in the moment…”
“Can Mr. Su explain it himself?”
Jiang Yi: “…”
This Yan Shunhua?
Each sentence seemed to deliberately interrupt her, only addressing Su Yuntang, and while she spoke, her gaze always stayed on Su Yuntang, without so much as a glance at her standing aside?
And what was that tone?
Interrogate?
Who is she?
Where does she get the qualification to question them?
As for Su Yuntang, he didn’t speak, and his entire face was nearly crimson.
On one hand, it was the effect of alcohol.
On the other hand, being publicly reprimanded by a woman in such a manner did make it somewhat difficult for him to save face.
“Forget it, Chairman.” Su Wanwan coughed twice, “He’s drunk. Let’s just let it go, and it’s getting late. I think I’ll go back and rest.”
Upon hearing these words, Yan Shunhua looked at her face.
The young girl had naturally fair skin and a small face, which was somewhat flushed from the alcohol, and now there was a very noticeable print of five fingers on the left cheek…
Under the glow of the corridor lights, at first glance, the redness set against her snow-white skin was strikingly alarming!
Fingers tense then tensing again, Yan Shunhua was silent for a few seconds, also aware that too much could be as bad as not enough…
She nodded, “Since Wanwan is not pursuing it, Mr. Su, Mrs. Su, both of you should watch your behavior.”
…
Watching the two leaving together, Jiang Yi was fuming inside.
This damn girl has such good luck!
Although her mother died early, being placed in an orphanage for so long, she could still be found and brought back by old master Su.
She knew the Little Princess of the Mo Family from kindergarten and with old master Su’s favor, she has grown wild over the years, developing an arrogant and unbridled character.
Finally sent abroad, Su Yanyan even stole her fiancé, yet the girl could turn around and marry the even more outstanding Huo Jingshen! Xing Yuyun had to respectfully call her sister-in-law…
Now that she’s about to graduate from college and looking for a job, she even encounters such a benefactor as Yan Shunhua, who protects her so strongly…
Jiang Yi took a deep breath, finally calming her emotions, and when she looked up, she saw Su Yuntang still staring blankly ahead.
Her brows tightened, “Yuntang?”
…
“Yuntang?” Jiang Yi abruptly pulled on Su Yuntang’s arm, “What are you daydreaming about?”
Su Yuntang returned his gaze, “Oh, it’s nothing.”
Jiang Yi: “…”
Not until they walked into the elevator did Jiang Yi speak seemingly casually, “Yuntang, don’t you think… that Ms. Yan looks quite like Ya Jin?”
Su Yuntang didn’t speak.
But such silence was clearly because he harbored the same thought as she did.
Jiang Yi continued, “But it’s just the eyebrows and eyes that are similar. Ms. Yan is an American Chinese, I heard she grew up abroad and was educated in the West, no wonder she’s so unaware of social etiquette, she doesn’t even understand the basic manners of us Chinese.”
It took a long time before Su Yuntang finally nodded slowly.
Yes.
The last time he accidentally encountered her on the street, he also thought the two looked very alike.
However, after just a few short sentences of interaction just now, he found that Yan Shunhua and Ya Jin were completely different, whether in speech, demeanor, expression, or even the tone of voice—haughty and compelling…
All completely different from Ya Jin.
And Ya Jin would never speak to him with such an attitude.
After all, it was she who had betrayed him back then, it was she who had done wrong, it was she who owed him…
