Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 811 - 728: Nothing to Talk About
"I hope so too! But it’s too early to let down our guard! You should still arrange for someone to keep an eye on things!"
Leng Mochen didn’t want to make enemies with them now, but he feared someone was quietly plotting something in the dark. Anything or anyone that threatened Li Sian’s safety, he would not easily let pass.
Long Wu agreed with this reasoning: "Alright! I’ll listen to you! Better safe than sorry! By the way, there’s been no news from He Yinyin recently. What’s she brewing up?"
Leng Mochen listened, a deep and unreadable look in his eyes, and silently took a sip of champagne.
Just then, footsteps sounded from behind, and both he and Long Wu turned to look, only to see Qin He in a light blue evening dress!
Long Wu glanced at the approaching Qin He and quietly winked at Leng Mochen.
"What’s this woman doing here?"
Isn’t this woman He Yinyin’s goddaughter? Speak of the devil!
Leng Mochen’s expression grew even colder. Her being here was really no surprise.
Qin He gracefully approached them, politely smiled at Long Wu, and then said to Leng Mochen with a smile, "Hello, President Leng! Didn’t expect to meet you here!"
Leng Mochen curled his lips and coldly replied, "Surprised?!"
Qin He smiled slightly, her eyes carrying a curious scrutiny, "Indeed! Why haven’t I seen Mrs. Leng?"
Leng Mochen gave her a cold glance, completely devoid of warmth in his gaze.
"Do you know my wife?"
Qin He smiled beautifully, "I don’t know her! But I’ve heard of her, admired her for a long time, and very much wanted to meet! I originally thought I could meet her at this reception today!
Unexpectedly, how unfortunate!"
At this moment, Long Wu chimed in, "Beauty! Who might you be?"
Qin He confidently looked at Leng Mochen, "Boss Long may not know me, but President Leng surely does! Right?"
"I don’t know you!" Leng Mochen replied indifferently.
Qin He’s expression remained unchanged, with a seemingly amused look, speaking with profound meaning, "President Leng, although it’s our first meeting, I thought we already had a deep connection!"
She was sure there was some connection between that ’facelift case’ and Leng Mochen, she just didn’t want to expose it face to face.
Long Wu, very mindful of Qin He’s investment in Han Mingzhe, scoffed: "Beauty! You can’t speak recklessly! You know our Leng Er has a family! Stirring up a family war over one remark of yours isn’t good!"
No matter how strong Qin He’s mental fortitude was, her face slightly changed at Long Wu’s words.
"I’m sorry! I didn’t mean it that way, forgive my presumptuousness..."
Neither Leng Mochen nor Long Wu responded to her, and Leng Mochen said coolly, "Let’s go!"
He didn’t want to have any superficial dealings with Qin He; the fish was already in the net, and he just needed to close the net in this way.
Long Wu gave Qin He a particularly meaningful up-and-down glance before sneering and stepping away.
Behind them, Qin He bit her lower lip in shame and anger, her eyes flashing with fierceness and doubt.
Why did she see disdain and mockery in their eyes?
Was there something she didn’t know?
...
Li Si was invited out by Bai Shasha, and the two went to a hot pot restaurant that Bai Shasha specifically wanted to visit for dinner.
As soon as they sat down, Bai Shasha looked at her phone and exclaimed.
Li Si looked at her puzzled, "What’s wrong with you again?"
Bai Shasha waved her phone after reading a message, "Didn’t I tell you about Wang Man coming to Beijing before? Then I forgot about it! She sent me a message before boarding the plane!"
Li Si asked, "What do you plan to do about it then?"
Bai Shasha reluctantly pursed her lips, "Honestly, I really don’t want to hang out with her, but since she’s already here, as classmates, I still have to go through the motions and fulfill my duty as the host!
Hey! How about it? Will you come with me later?"
Li Si laughed and shook her head vigorously, "No way! You know, my Buding has been particularly clingy lately, and if he weren’t asleep, I might not have been able to come out.
Mochen is attending a wine reception and might be back later, so after dinner with you, I’ll head back first!"
She felt indifferent about Wang Man, so she didn’t want to join that gathering.
Moreover, the key issue is that Wang Man has a weird obsession with Zhou Rou.
If they meet, they might end up talking about Zhou Rou’s whereabouts.
Having just calmed that situation down, she really didn’t want to bring it up at all.
Bai Shasha somewhat understood Li Si’s thoughts and expressed her understanding, "Alright! Your son comes first! Anyway, I guess she’s just here to play and relax.
Besides, I can’t accompany her long, after greeting her and having a meal, I’ll need to head home, my parents are coming over tomorrow, and I have to get their room ready!"
Thinking of her current situation, Li Si quickly reminded, "Don’t go alone! A pregnant woman comes first! See if your Xu Er has time to accompany you! If not, I’ll give you two people, but make sure not to say they’re from me!"
"Haha! Got it! I’ll ask my Xu Er later!"
The two chatted as they ate, easily moving past this topic.
Li Si occasionally shared some pregnancy tips from her own experience, and Bai Shasha listened earnestly.
After the meal, having settled the bill, the two walked out arm in arm, chatting and laughing.
As they passed a group of people entering, someone called out Li Si’s name.
"Li Si!"
Li Si looked in the direction of the voice and saw a weary-faced Tian Yaruo among the group, her face turning cold from its previous smile.
What a coincidence!
She and Bai Shasha came out for a meal and still ran into her!
You could say there’s really fate between them!
Tian Yaruo approached, "Li Si! Can we talk?"
Li Si coldly glanced at her, not wanting to say anything to Tian Yaruo!
"We have nothing to talk about!"
Bai Shasha put down her smile, curiously looking at Tian Yaruo, Li Si’s biological mother.
Just felt that the world is like this, while motherly love is indeed great, not every mother is that loving and selfless.
"Just five minutes, please!" Tian Yaruo told the group of middle-aged men and women with her to go ahead, saying she ran into an acquaintance and would talk for a bit.
The middle-aged group, while passing Li Si and Bai Shasha, gave them curious looks.
Li Si wanted to pull Bai Shasha along to bypass Tian Yaruo and leave, but Tian Yaruo quickly and tactfully extended an arm to stop them.
"Please!" Tian Yaruo pleaded with her eyes.
The bodyguards behind Li Si quickly took their positions, "Madam! What do you think?"
Ever since the sulfuric acid incident, the bodyguards around Li Si were all highly capable.
But they could see the woman blocking the lady looked neither dangerous nor aggressive.
Ultimately, it was up to Li Si!
Li Si, with an unpleasant expression, motioned for them to stand by behind her, then she sneered at Tian Yaruo, "What could you possibly have to talk about with me? Let me guess! Are you here to plead for Ye Duowei’s release, or do you expect me to magnanimously forgive and reconcile with the Tian Family? To happily become one big family?"
