Chapter 510: Chapter 510: Is He the Boyfriend?
Charity dinner.
Watching the jewelry being safely stored under the care of Gong Group’s bodyguards.
Lin Zhiyi and Xue Man both breathed a sigh of relief.
Xue Man looked at Lin Zhiyi and smiled, saying, “The finished product is beautiful, I’m sure it will fetch a good price today.”
“Yeah.”
Lin Zhiyi and Xue Man stood awkwardly as if they suddenly ran out of things to say.
Xue Man understood what she was thinking.
“Zhiyi, I still say the same thing, some things you need to see the essence, what you couldn’t get before, you won’t get in the future either, so leave some room as a person, and you’ll meet again.”
“President Xue, what do you mean?”
Lin Zhiyi felt there was more to Xue Man’s words.
This made her inevitably think of the time not long ago when Bai Ruoshu walked out of Xue Man’s office with a smile.
Xue Man did not answer her, “Let’s go, the banquet is starting.”
With that, she turned and left.
Lin Zhiyi was momentarily at a loss as to what Xue Man and Bai Ruoshu were thinking.
As she walked a distance, a familiar voice sounded from behind.
“Zhiyi.”
Lin Zhiyi stopped and smiled knowingly at the person coming.
“Mr. Sang, long time no see.”
“Third Young Master told me about the recent events, are you okay?” Sang Li asked.
“I’m fine.” Lin Zhiyi thought for a moment and continued, “Mr. Sang, can I ask you about someone?”
“Who?”
“Bai Ruoshu.”
She remembered that Sang Li often flew to Europe, perhaps he could hear something about Bai Ruoshu in that circle.
Her memories from her past life only lingered on the name and title of Bai Ruoshu.
She didn’t know much about the Bai Family.
Sang Li thought for a moment and said, “The Bai Family had some prestige in Southeast Asia and then went to Europe, where their business suddenly took off. But we haven’t cooperated with each other, although I’ve heard that the Bai couple often do some charity work.”
“As for Bai Ruoshu, she’s quite competent in the jewelry circle. Although she didn’t win the design for this Ji Nian Jewelry, her reputation remains strong.”
His words were watertight.
But Lin Zhiyi still understood.
“Their whole family is very good at getting along with people.”
Sang Li just smiled without saying anything.
As they talked, he suddenly raised his hand to tidy her hair.
“Don’t move, there’s something.”
Lin Zhiyi stood still.
Not far away, two pairs of eyes were fixed on them.
Bai Ruoshu watched the scene between Sang Li and Lin Zhiyi and sneered, “She really can’t stay idle for even a minute, attracting one after another.”
Yang Jingwei chuckled, “Based on the information Zhao Xuan leaked to you, I found out that Mr. Sang indeed held a private engagement party with Lin Zhiyi, but for some reason, it quieted down later.”
“Now the way he looks at Lin Zhiyi isn’t simple. This is a great opportunity.”
“I’ve heard that several madams have a good impression of Lin Zhiyi and even offered to introduce boyfriends to her. But she declined, saying she already had one.”
“Since her fiancé is here, let’s help her prove it and avoid further speculation.”
The mother and daughter exchanged a smile.
Bai Ruoshu reached out and took off one of Yang Jingwei’s earrings, “Mom, where’s your earring gone? Let’s get someone to help us find it.”
“Sure. Such a good thing, we must call Second Madam over.”
…
Soon, Bai Ruoshu and Yang Jingwei called a few of the madams who previously wanted to introduce boyfriends to Lin Zhiyi, and Liu He to come help look for the earring.
When everyone bowed their heads, Bai Ruoshu looked straight ahead at the distance.
“Second Madam, isn’t that Zhiyi there? Why is she so close with Mr. Sang? I heard from colleagues that she has a boyfriend, could it be Mr. Sang?”
Liu He was startled, quickly looking up.
Not far away, Sang Li and a woman were hiding in a corner, looking quite close.
The woman’s half profile and movements were almost identical to Lin Zhiyi.
The few madams looked up to see.
“It really is Miss Lin, so her so-called boyfriend is Mr. Sang, what’s there to be secretive about?”
“Exactly, Mr. Sang is quite the catch, others can only be envious.”
Bai Ruoshu chuckled, covering her lips, “Could it be that Zhiyi is shy?”
“Young girls today are thin-skinned, let’s just pretend we didn’t see and let the young couple have their moment.”
Yang Jingwei pulled her shawl, regardless of her expression or words, she appeared very considerate.
But the anxious look from losing her ancestral earring just now had completely vanished.
Liu He had seen many backstabbings in social circles by now and could immediately tell the mother and daughter’s trickery.
No wonder Lin Zhiyi asked her to stay away from them.
If not for the friendly madams pulling her over just now, she wouldn’t have come.
Now she was stuck in a difficult position.
What should she say?
If she admitted it, she couldn’t explain to Gong Chen.
If she denied it, Lin Zhiyi and Sang Li were almost glued together.
Watching as more and more guests gathered, what if more people saw them?
Liu He squinted and said, “My eyesight isn’t great, I really can’t see clearly, it probably isn’t, let’s hurry and find that earring, before someone else picks it up.”
Yang Jingwei saw Liu He trying to escape and reached out to hold her.
“Xiao He, can’t see clearly? Then let’s go forward and have a look, we should at least say hello to Mr. Sang since we saw him.”
“Right, Second Madam, what’s your daughter afraid of? It’s not something that can’t be seen.”
Bai Ruoshu tugged on the other side of Liu He.
The two of them linked arms and walked forward.
Being pregnant, Liu He couldn’t use much force and could only follow along.
Bai Ruoshu called out, “Zhiyi, Mr. Sang.”
When the woman heard someone, she immediately withdrew her hand from Sang Li and hid behind him.
Bai Ruoshu and Yang Jingwei smirked.
Everyone saw it.
Bai Ruoshu politely stepped forward, “Mr. Sang, hello.”
Sang Li nodded, “Is there something you need?”
“We just saw you while looking for the earring and came over to say hello.” Bai Ruoshu smiled innocently and glanced behind Sang Li, “Zhiyi, why are you hiding? By the way, congratulations to you and Mr. Sang, a perfect match.”
A woman’s voice came from behind Sang Li.
“Is that so? I think so too.”
With that, the woman peeked out.
Bai Ruoshu’s smile froze on her lips.
“You…”
“Miss Bai, I’ve heard a lot about you, my name is Chu Yin, not Zhiyi. I’m Mr. Sang’s companion tonight.”
Chu Yin wrapped her arm around Sang Li’s, leaning closer to him.
She almost announced to others that their relationship was special.
Of course, it was special, he was her sugar daddy, and she couldn’t let him get snatched away.
Bai Ruoshu was stunned for a moment, “Impossible, just now…”
She realized she had misspoken and quickly corrected herself.
“I’m sorry, Miss Chu, I thought it was Zhiyi at first, but you really look alike. I heard from colleagues that Mr. Sang and Zhiyi are close, so I mistook you.”
Chu Yin smiled at Bai Ruoshu.
What a schemer.
She immediately gave an exaggerated smile, putting on an innocent face.
“Don’t say that, I’m nowhere near as pretty as Miss Lin, but I’ve heard someone say I resemble Miss Bai a bit, Mr. Sang, does it look similar?”
Sang Li cooperatively examined her, “There is a bit of resemblance.”
No matter how good-minded, Bai Ruoshu couldn’t smile.
This woman was clearly a parasitic flower relying on a man, yet she said Bai Ruoshu looked like someone like her.
At this moment, a voice rang out from beyond the crowd.
“Mom, what’s all the fuss about?”
