285 Entangled
Su Meng frowned and looked up at him coldly. âSir, whatâs the matter? If thereâs nothing else, Iâm going back.â
The man looked at her with a strange expression, which made Su Meng very uncomfortable.
However, she was injured and couldnât walk very fast. If the man wanted to, he could catch up with her easily. So, it was useless even if Su Meng ran. In that case, she might as well ask the man in front of her directly.
She could feel the manâs ill intentions, but this was the Wei family. Even if the man had any thoughts he shouldnât have, he probably wouldnât dare to make a move.
The man smiled and reached out to put his hand on Su Mengâs shoulder, but Su Meng dodged it.
Su Meng took a few steps back and looked at the man with a frown. âSir, I donât think we know each other.â
Seeing Su Mengâs reaction, the man smiled and consoled her, âMiss Su, donât worry. Iâm not a bad person, so you donât have to be afraid. Iâm not here to do anything bad to you, but I have something to tell you.â
Su Mengâs eyes narrowed and she said, âBad people never say theyâre bad people.â
The man, ââ¦â
This made sense.
Then, Su Meng said, âYou said you have something to do. Iâve asked you so many times already. Just tell me. If you donât, please make way. Iâm leaving.â
Seeing Su Mengâs impatience, the man finally decided not to tease her anymore. âMiss Su, let me introduce myself. My name is Xiao Chen. Iâve been paying attention to you since the banquet started because you gave me a different feeling from the first time I saw you. Later, it was proven that it was indeed the case. At the banquet, you shone brightly. Miss Su, I donât know if I have the honor to be friends with you?â
âMake friends?â Su Meng repeated.
Xiao Chen nodded to confirm. âMiss Su is a celebrity now. Itâs not just me, but many people want to be on good terms with you. After all, there arenât many feng shui masters as young as you, especially female ones.â
Xiao Chen kept a smile on his face, trying to act like a gentleman, but Su Meng only looked at him up and down and asked, âYouâre Xiao Chen? Whatâs your relationship with Xiao Xiao?â
Xiao Chen had said a lot, but Su Mengâs focus was only on his identity.
The guests at the birthday banquet today were all from the famous big families. Since Xiao Chenâs surname was Xiao, it seemed that he and Xiao Xiao were from the same family.
She took a closer look at Xiao Chenâs appearance and it seemed that he really did have a lot of similarities with Xiao Xiao.
Sure enough, Xiao Chen replied, âOh, Xiao Xiao is my sister. Sheâs part of the reason why I came to find you. Iâm really sorry, my sister has been spoiled by the family since she was young, and she does everything according to her mood. I apologize on her behalf for offending you today.â
Then, he looked at Su Meng carefully and asked, âMiss Su, you donât look well. Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?â
âSo youâre Xiao Xiaoâs brother. No wonder you two look so similar. I accept your apology. If you have nothing else, Iâll take my leave first. I still have things to do, so I wonât be accompanying you.â Su Meng nodded at Xiao Chen and wanted to leave.
But Xiao Chen once again extended his arm to block Su Mengâs path. Su Meng stopped and frowned slightly, looking at Xiao Chen in confusion. âMr. Xiao, itâs not gentlemanly to block the road again and again. Is this your sincerity in wanting to be friends with me?â
Su Mengâs voice turned cold and she was getting impatient.
Xiao Chen quickly explained, âMiss Su, please donât misunderstand. I donât mean anything else. Actually, my company is looking for a feng shui master to help look at feng shui, but after looking for a long time, I donât know who is reliable. Now that I know that Miss Su is such an amazing feng shui master, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you?â
Afraid that Su Meng would reject him, Xiao Chen added, âDonât worry about the payment, Miss Su. I will pay you higher than the market price.â
Xiao Chen looked at Su Meng with a smile. Before he came out, he had heard from Wei Xue that Su Meng loved money. As long as she had money, she would do anything.
Although he didnât understand why Su Meng, as the Young Madam of the Wei family, was so short on money, it was a good thing for him. He could use money to get Su Meng back.
