She hurriedly put down the teacup in her hand, turned back and said, âMr. Nian, since youâre discussing a case, I think I should leave for now.â
âWhy do you have to leave? I wonât agree to that case anyway,â said Nian Junting carelessly while knocking the table with his slender fingers.
Luosang paused. Xiao Si widened his eyes and said, âAre you crazy? Turn down such a profitable case?â
âIâm not lacking money,â said Nian Junting with a deep and lazy voice, âI donât appreciate people like Yi Jingxi. He took advantage of his fiancee and mercilessly kicked her away after getting what he wanted. Do you really think he will help you make a fortune easily? Iâve never met him, but Iâd guess that he is definitely a snake. You know Iâve always disliked that kind of person. I only agreed to see him because of you.â
Xiao Si was a little speechless, but he knew that Nian Junting meant what he said. âYouâre right, but those Xu Family people got what they deserved. That old man in their family molested his students at such an old age, so disgusting,â he said.
Nian Junting snorted and said, âThatâs disgusting indeed, but it doesnât mean that Yi Jingxi has clean hands. Forget it, I donât intend to upload justice, I just donât appreciate people like him.â
The afternoon sunlight poured on Nian Juntingâs beautifully shaped face, and emphasized his proudness and elegance. It all seemed to be a part of his nature as the sun brightened his face, making it very pleasant to look at.
Luosang stared at him for a few seconds, and then, her calm heart rippled.
Ever since her father went to prison, all of her family and friends left her and tried everything to avoid her. Many of them were still cursing her father. Long articles were published on all kinds of news media to praise Yi Jingxi for his integrity, for placing righteousness over family loyalty, but no one saw the dirtiness in that manâs heart.
Without the Xu Family, without the failure of Luosangâs father, and without taking away everything she had, how could Yi Jingxi have ever achieved his success?
If Luosang hadnât put in a good word for him in front of her father, Xu Zheng Xuan, then he wouldnât even have had a platform to start his career.
The arrogant and picky Nian Junting was the only one who said something like that about him. Clearly, although he was standing on the top of the business world, he still had a clean conscience and integrity. There werenât many people in the world like him.
Suddenly, Luosang felt that Nian Junting had become much more appealable in her eyes. At least, he was more real than those hypocrites.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMr. Nian, I need to go to the bathroom,â Luosang said, abruptly interrupting Nian Juntingâs conversation with Xiao Si.
Nian Junting stared at her with displeasure.
âIt may... take a while,â Luosang added, showing an embarrassed look.
Nian Juntingâs face darkened immediately.
âGo, go,â Xiao Si waved his hand and said, âSheâs been with you all day and didnât even get the convenience to go to the bathroom. Now Iâm with you, donât worry.â
âThank you, Mr. Xiao,â Luosang thanked Xiao Si, then lowered her head and quickly walked out of the office.
Not long after she left, Yi Jingxi, well-dressed with a pressed suit stepped out of the elevator. He saw a familiar figure disappearing at the end of the corridor.
He narrowed his eyes and thought that was an illusion.
Why did that girl look so much like Xu Luosang? But she had no reason to show up in an upper floor of the building of Sheng Ting Investment.
âMr. Yi, whatâs wrong?â asked Lu Kang. He was showing him the way, when he noticed Yi Jingxi suddenly pause.
âNothing,â Yi Jingxi shook his head, cleared his mind then walked into the CEOâs office.
Luosang spent five minutes in the bathroom, then saw Lu Kang doing his work in the secretarial pool when she got out. After being informed that Nian Juntingâs meeting with Yi Jingxi wasnât over yet, she asked Lu Kang, âIt seems to be inappropriate for me to go in now; can I stay in the reception room for a while?â
