This was indeed a good idea.
Su Yige would completely benefit from this while Su Ziyue had to take the blame.
Su Yige was cunning indeed.
Su Yige had guessed one thing right. Indeed, she wanted to know where her father was.
She was desperate to find out her father’s location.
However, she had no news of him for so many years.
If Su Yige had proposed this to her when she had just returned to China, she might have agreed without hesitation.
That was because finding her father was the most important thing to her at that time.
But now, although she still wanted to find her father, she had scruples about any decision she made.
This was because she was not just Su Ziyue; she was also someone’s wife now.
Thinking of Qin Muchen, Su Ziyue's expression darkened. She no longer had the mood to continue discussing this with Su Yige.
“That’s the deal. Pick a time, preferably today, and I will get some reporters here. Then, you just need to play your part.”
Su Yige thought that Su Ziyue would definitely agree to her request, so she directly stated the plan.
Su Ziyue nodded. “Oh, let me consider it first.”
Hearing this, Su Yige's expression changed. “What? You want to consider it?!”
“Yeah, of course I have to. This isn’t just some trivial matter.” Su Ziyue leaned back lazily and said, “Please leave first. I have a lot of things to deal with and I need some time.”
As Su Ziyue said that, she lowered her head to look at the document.
Seeing the inattentive look on her face, Su Yige realized that Su Ziyue had no intentions of agreeing at all.
“Su Ziyue, how dare you mess around with me?!” Su Yige glared at her, her eyes bursting with flames of fury.
“I wasn’t.” Su Ziyue shrugged and shook her head. “I have no interest in you, nor do I want to mess around with you. I just really need some time to consider this deal.”
At this moment, someone knocked on the door from outside.
Knock! Knock!
There was a crisp knocking sound, causing the both of them to stop talking.
Su Ziyue got up to open the door, but Su Yige immediately stopped her. “Su Ziyue, you have no choice but to agree!”
“Get out of the way.” Su Ziyue hated Su Yige's arrogant tone. She was tired of Su Yige commanding her around ever since they were children.
Yet, Su Yige did not move away.
Seeing this, Su Ziyue sneered and kicked Su Yige's calf.
“Ow—!”
Su Yige turned to the side with pain. Then, Su Ziyue ignored her and walked straight to the door.
The one who had knocked on the door was An Xia. When she saw Su Ziyue, she asked aloud, “Why did you lock the door?”
“We were discussing some matters,” Su Ziyue said and opened the door to let An Xia see Su Yige who was still in the office.
When An Xia saw Su Yige, she almost blurted out ‘You b*tch!’.
Fortunately, she stopped herself from cursing in time.
“Please come in. We can talk in my office.”
Su Ziyue brought An Xia straight in, leaving Su Yige, whose calf was in pain, to stand there in a weird posture.
As an outsider had come in, Su Yige couldn't continue talking about the deal. Thus, she turned around and limped out.
After Su Yige went out, An Xia asked Su Ziyue in a low voice, “What's the matter?”
“It's nothing. She was just being crazy as usual.” Su Ziyue just smiled, not wanting to elaborate.
There was no need to explain it to An Xia because she would never agree to Su Yige's request anyway. She was not that stupid.
If she really did that, it would not only ruin her own reputation, but also Qin Muchen’s.
She was very grateful toward him for accepting her past, so she would never do anything that would leave a stain on his reputation.
She would have really become a grave sinner if she had stained the reputation of a high and mighty person like Qin Muchen.
Although it was likely that she might not be able to be together with him for long, she still missed him so dearly. She was already in a mess just after one day of not seeing him, so she could only use work to drown out her emotions.
As a result, she completed the work that would normally take a day and a half in a day.
Perhaps due to the bad luck Su Yige had brought to her early in the morning, it started to rain when she got off work.
After working overtime for an hour, Su Ziyue finally came out and stood at the entrance of the Su Tower, looking at the rain with a slight frown.
She didn't bring an umbrella when she left this morning as she didn't think that it would rain.
And now, she had to go out of the building to hail a cab.
With no other choice, Su Ziyue ran out with her bag over her head. She had to go home no matter what, so she ran out into the rain.
Su Ziyue ran to the side of the road, but still no cab passed by her.
While Su Ziyue was feeling anxious because she could not get a cab, a black Bentley slowly stopped in front of her.
Seeing the black Bentley, Su Ziyue felt inexplicably excited.
The next second, the window of the car was rolled down. When she saw the person inside the car, she felt a little disappointed.
It was not Qin Muchen in the car.
Was she so emotional when she saw the car because he drove a black Bentley as well?
Yet, the person behind the car window was a complete stranger.
He was an energetic-looking man in a suit and leather shoes, and he was so good-looking that others tended to trust him easily.
Unlike Qin Muchen's mysterious persona, this man looked particularly gentle and down to earth.
Although this man had little wrinkles, Su Ziyue could still tell at a glance that he was already in his thirties.
He then opened the door and got out of the car with a delicate, long-handled black umbrella. He was tall and slender and looked like a northerner.
He walked up to Su Ziyue and looked at her calmly and politely before saying with uncertainty, “Miss Su?”
Su Ziyue looked surprised. She then said with hesitation, “Hello...”
He stretched out his arm and moved the umbrella a little to cover Su Ziyue from the rain before saying, “Miss Su, I was the one who sent you to the hospital last time. You even sent me a text message after the incident. I didn't bring that phone with me on my business trips, so I only saw your message when I came back. “
He spoke very tactfully with a slight apologetic tone.
Finally, Su Ziyue remembered that incident.
When she was going home on Qin Muchen’s birthday, she had gotten into an accident...
After all, she was the one who had hit his car. Yet, not only did she not compensate him afterward, but he even sent her to the hospital.
Su Ziyue weighed her words for a moment before saying awkwardly, “Are you that kind car owner from previously?”
“I’m far from kind. Anyone would send the injured to the hospital first in such a situation.” His smile was as refreshing as a spring breeze.
Su Ziyue immediately took a liking toward him. “I’ve always wanted to thank you. What a pleasant surprise to meet you today. Hello, I am Su Ziyue.”
With an unabated smile on his face, he stretched out his hand to Su Ziyue. “Hello, I’m Feng Xingyan.”
Su Ziyue reached out to shake hands with him.
“Miss Su, where are you going? I'll give you a ride.” He then looked up at the sky. His brows were slightly furrowed for an instant before quickly easing up as if he didn't like rainy days.
“Mr. Feng, if it is convenient for you, I would also like to invite you to dinner.” She should indeed thank Feng Xingyan. She rarely encountered kind people nowadays.
Feng Xingyan smiled again. “Sure thing.”
After that, he turned his body slightly and motioned for her to move forward.
He held the umbrella and walked to the front of the car with Su Ziyue before opening the door for her to go in like a gentleman. Then, he went to the other side of the car and got in before driving off.
