Chapter 61: Speculation
If the person standing in front of Lu Ye right now was a greenhorn, he would probably be very interested in the relic Lu Ye mentioned. Unfortunately, the person in front of him was a veteran like Shi Qing. Just by looking at Lu Ye’s unconcealed expression, Shi Qing knew what he was up to. Therefore, Shi Qing only raised his brows slightly.
Lu Ye was a little unsure of what he was thinking when he saw how calm he was.
“What does the matter of Second Uncle Yun have to do with me?” After a long while, Shi Qing finally spoke, but his words caught Lu Ye off guard.
That shouldn’t be the case. The relationship between Shi Qing and Yun Xi had long spread among the high society of Jing City. It was said that when they were in City A, Shi Qing had even invited all the business big shots in City A to celebrate Yun Xi’s birthday in order to make her happy.
Now… could it be that Shi Qing had said that on purpose? But why did he say that?
Lu Ye looked Shi Qing up and down, trying to find any flaws in his words. However, it was a pity that Lu Ye had failed. Shi Qing’s actions proved that he really did not care. Whether it was Yun Yi or Yun Xi, they had nothing to do with him.
Shi Qing turned his head slightly. “Is there anything else?”
Lu Ye hurriedly shook his head. This was different from the plan. Lu Ye, who had an extremely average mental capacity, did not even have the chance to bid farewell to Shi Qing before running off in a panic.
Lu Ye shut the door on the rooftop loudly.
“President Shi?”
Shi Qing sneered as he listened to Xu Xin’s voice. “What secret do you think Lu Ye is hiding?”
After all, he had been by Shi Qing’s side for a long time. Hearing Shi Qing’s words, Xu Xin immediately knew what he should do. “Should I send someone to investigate Lu Ye?”
Shi Qing looked at Xu Xin with admiration. The anxiety and fear in his heart lessened.
After a while, when the panic had completely disappeared, Shi Qing waved his hand and gestured for Xu Xin to push him back into the venue.
At this moment, the atmosphere of the venue was even more lively than before. Su Yan had already rejected wave after wave of young talents who came to greet her. At this moment, she was sitting alone in a corner, holding a glass of transparent liquid in her hand. She had an indescribable elegance and nobleness.
It was as if Su Yan was born to live in such an environment.
Seeing Shi Qing approach, Su Yan glared at him and silently turned her head away. Shi Qing’s heart melted at the sight of her delicate and pretty face.
Shi Qing walked to Su Yan with a smile and said gently, “It was my fault just now, I apologize.”
Initially, Su Yan was not angry. Now that Shi Qing was the first to admit his mistake, she gave Shi Qing an out. “What happened to you just now?”
Shi Qing fell silent. Looking at him, Su Yan felt as though a cat was scratching at her heart. “Tell me, what else can’t you tell me?”
That was true. Shi Qing deliberated for a moment before sighing and saying, “This is because my mind is lacking.”
After he finished speaking, he spoke of the scene he saw earlier. However, he noticed that while he was speaking, Su Yan’s expression seemed very strange. In fact, after he finished speaking, Su Yan actually fell silent.
Such a reaction made Shi Qing unsure.
When Su Yan snapped out of her daze, she saw Shi Qing looking at her thoughtfully. She immediately revealed a proud expression. “This is very obvious.”
Shi Qing did not understand. Su Yan continued, “You clearly like me too much and are constantly worried that I will leave you.” After saying that, she smiled brightly. “I’m really happy that you think that way. Don’t worry, I won’t leave you. What you just saw won’t happen.”
When Shi Qing’s attention shifted elsewhere, Su Yan clenched her fists behind her back.
What was going on? Su Yan was confused. The situation that Shi Qing had mentioned earlier was clearly something that had happened in her previous life and still remained in Su Yan’s memories. But why did Shi Qing know about it? He even remembered what she was wearing.
This could no longer be described as a simple coincidence.
Could it be that Shi Qing had the same memories as her? Su Yan thought that she would be able to do it without anyone noticing, but she did not expect that Shi Qing would see everything.
Shi Qing looked at Su Yan quietly. Based on his understanding of Su Yan, Su Yan must know something, and the things that he had just seen could not be explained with a simple sentence of being hypnotized.
Could it be that… has all of this happened before?
This thought was too ridiculous and Shi Qing was unwilling to believe it. However, looking at Su Yan’s condition, he felt that this was the only explanation that made sense.
“President Shi, so you’re here. Our Lu family has really neglected you. I hope you don’t mind, President Shi.” Just as Shi Qing was thinking about that matter, Lu Yi, who had been chatting on stage earlier, slowly walked over with a glass of wine in his hand. There was a hint of apology in his words.
