After meeting Li Man last night, Gong Yi asked his assistant to check her current situation and asked someone to keep an eye on her.
After hearing the assistant's report, Gong Yi's eyes flashed. He put down the phone, stood up and quickly left the private room.
"Hey, where are you going?"
Xu Rui, who was woken up by the noise, opened his eyes drowsily. When he finished speaking, Gong Yi's hurried back had disappeared at the door, leaving only the cold wind on his face from the air conditioner.
After sneezing, Xu Rui rubbed his itchy nose, pulled the air-conditioning blanket to cover himself, and lay back on the sofa.

At that time, Starlight Cafe.
The waiter quickly brought the coffee over. Li Man took a sip and said in a somewhat picky tone, "The things in these ordinary shops are really fake. The taste is not very authentic, so I can only drink it as it is."
"Miss Li, please tell me what you mean." The other party obviously had something else in her words, and Chen Sisi could hear it.
Li Man smiled, put down the cup in her hand, and then spoke slowly, "After looking at me for so long, Miss Chen, haven't you noticed that your eyes and face shape are very similar to mine?"
So, the fake she was talking about was referring to her as a replacement? And the so-called ordinary store was probably a subtle allusion to her ordinary background, making her unworthy of Gong Yi.
Chen Sisi suddenly understood, but when she looked carefully, she found that her appearance was indeed somewhat similar to the woman in front of her. When she discovered this, Chen Sisi's heart suddenly trembled.
Noticing her expression change, Li Man's eyes flashed with satisfaction, "Ayi and I were high school classmates and each other's first love. At that time, his grades were better than mine. He could have been admitted to Peking University.
But for my sake, he chose a lower grade for his major and accompanied me to another place. However, later on, both of our families encountered some changes, so we had to separate.
The defenses in her heart have begun to collapse, but she can't just show her cowardice in the face of her rival's show-off. After all, this is just her one-sided statement.
Chen Sisi took a sip of coffee and tried to stay calm.
"So what? Since you've broken up, you're both in the past. People live for the present and the future, not the past. Even if Miss Li reminisces about the past, she should learn to move on."
"Ms. Chen is really good at deceiving herself." Li Man curled the corners of her lips in a smile.
"After all these years, I still haven't been able to forget him. I believe he's the same. Isn't the fact that he chose you the best proof? What do you think, Miss Chen?"
"Miss Li, since you are so sure that Gong Yi still loves you, and only you, why don't you go directly to him and reconcile? Why come to me and try to be subtle?"
If she hadn't called him and he hadn't answered, why would she have come to find her?
Under the table, the hand on his thigh clenched his pants. A hint of coldness flashed across Li Man's eyes, then disappeared in an instant.
"I had no choice but to leave him back then. He pulled you away in front of me last night. He was obviously angry with me. When a man is jealous, he will inevitably do some impulsive things.
But a substitute is just a substitute after all. If we hadn't met again, you might have been able to live your whole life as it is. But I'm right in front of him now. Even if he marries you out of a momentary impulse, you won't be happy."
"Ms. Chen is a smart person. She wouldn't be willing to be someone else's substitute in marriage, right? I hope she can give up when she sees the difficulty."
Chen Sisi was almost amused by Li Man's words. Wasn't her implication that if she didn't take the initiative to withdraw, she would be unwise?
She will not be anyone's substitute, nor will she be with a man who has another woman in his heart, but the choice is hers, and it is not the place of strangers to point fingers.
"If he's blind and wants to come back, I will never try to stop him."
Even if she is destined to lose in this relationship, she will never leave by being persuaded by Li Man.
The conversation was not going well, so Chen Sisi said something and stood up to leave.
Seeing the other party's cold and hard attitude, Li Man, who had been pretending for a long time, finally couldn't hold it anymore.
"Chen Sisi, stop!" This was her only chance. Her goal had not been achieved yet, so how could she let her go like this?
Li Man called out from behind, but Chen Sisi ignored her. Seeing this, Li Man stood up and quickly caught up to stop the person.
"I'd rather be a substitute than be shameless. Isn't it just because he's rich? Two hundred thousand, just to get away from him."
Her annual salary now exceeds 200,000 yuan. Do you really think she has never seen the world?
Chen Sisi sneered and pulled the corners of her lips, "So in Miss Li's eyes, your feelings for him are so cheap."
"Miss Li, if you don't have hundreds of millions of assets, don't try to imitate the wealthy and domineering CEOs."
