Chapter 267 Reencounter with the Little Cutie
Ding Muyan was taken aback by her unexpected turn of events, and chuckled, "Miss Rebecca's unwillingness to suffer any loss is quite similar to that of my old friend. Are you angry because I said you look like my old friend?"
"It's not worth getting angry," Su Youling shrugged. "Anyone would feel a little uncomfortable being compared to others like that, right?"
She tilted her head, intrigued, and said, "But do I really look that much like her? I'm really curious. How about Mr. Ding finds an opportunity for me to meet her?"
The car had already parked in the parking lot outside the restaurant. Ding Muyan stared intently into her eyes and sighed, "It's a pity she fell into the sea five years ago and her whereabouts are still unknown."
Su Youling covered her mouth in surprise, somewhat apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ding, I didn't mean to offend your friend. I didn't know she already..."
Ding Muyan couldn't find a single flaw on her face. His eyes flickered, and he said calmly, "Ignorance is no excuse. Miss Rebecca, you don't need to feel sorry."
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Ding Muyan casually inquired about the business of Su Youling's exotic restaurant, naturally transitioning to her curiosity about her growth experience abroad over the years.
Su Youling deftly deflected the question, her answer being subtle yet leaving him no room for criticism.
Unable to find a way to approach the topic, Ding Muyan turned to teasingly asking, "Miss Rebecca, aren't you even a little curious about Miss Karina from earlier? After all, she should be your strongest competitor in this bidding process."
Su Youling rested her chin on her hands on the table, looking at him with an open and honest expression: "Why don't you tell me about it, Mr. Ding?"
Ding Muyan chuckled lightly, his eyes holding a deeper meaning, "Then I have to mention my old friend who looks a lot like you again, Su Youling, who is also the former president of Yitao, President Su."
Su Youling blinked and showed an expression of being all ears.
Ding Muyan tapped his left cheek with the tip of his tongue and chuckled, "Miss Rebecca should know that Yitao was originally a subsidiary of the Li Group, and the president of the Li Group, Li Tingxi, is this President Su's husband."
He paused, tapping his fingertips lightly on the table as he subtly observed Su Youling's reaction. "Five years ago, Su Youling accidentally fell into the sea, which greatly traumatized Li Tingxi. Over the past five years, he has meticulously punished everyone who had coerced or framed Su Youling with ruthless methods, including his half-brother Li Qidong..."
Ding Muyan was a great storyteller, and in just a few words, he vividly described the tragic fate of those who had bullied Su Youling.
Su Youling wore a calm, unperturbed smile, completely adopting the perspective of an observer, and commented indifferently, "It sounds like this President Li is a good man who is deeply devoted but short-lived."
However, only she herself knew the turmoil in her heart.
Over the years, she had deliberately avoided paying attention to Li Tingxi's news. When she returned to China after five years and saw him again, he already had Karina and a daughter by his side.
She thought Li Tingxi must have forgotten her long ago, but she never expected that he had done so much for her over the years.
Was it because he felt guilty and wanted to make amends? But he still had someone new by his side, and this person wasn't even Shen Xiyue.
Su Youling found her initial reaction to the situation rather amusing, and her expression turned cold. "President Ding, I'm not interested in President Li's private life. Let's talk about something else. I've always lived abroad, so I'm not familiar with this kind of thing in China..."

I'm not very familiar with the situation in this circle yet, could you give me some pointers?
Su Youling gained a lot from the meal.
As they got into the car to head back, Ding Muyan suddenly knocked on the window. After the window rolled down, he leaned down and smiled seductively at her, "Miss Rebecca, you probably don't have a boyfriend, right? If I were to pursue you, would you be willing to give me a chance?"
After realizing what was happening, Su Youling tilted her head and gave a polite smile. "President Ding will probably be disappointed. I'm already a mother of three."
After saying that, she calmly turned her head away, leaving behind a farewell that was blown away by the wind.
Ding Muyan watched as the car merged into the traffic and quickly disappeared. After a moment of stunned silence, the expression on his face gradually became playful.
...
South Street of Forest Park in the city center of C.
Wenxi carried Yueyue out of the car, and Yangyang and Xingxing followed suit.
You can see the sign for "Sunshine Kindergarten" after walking a few steps.
This is a private kindergarten that Wenxi found quite good after screening, not only because of its excellent security, but also because of its nice environment and convenient transportation.
There are many art galleries, museums, and art museums in this area. Many parents send their children to kindergarten here with the idea of cultivating their artistic sensibilities from an early age.
Wenxi's purpose today is to take the three little ones to visit and experience the kindergarten.
However, since it's not open yet, they can only stroll around the area for now.
There was a science and technology exhibition hall not far from the right turn. Yangyang rarely saw anything that interested him, so he said something to Wenxi and went in. Xingxing followed him in.
Yueyue wasn't interested, so she took Wenxi's hand and looked around.
There are also many quirky doll and accessory shops here; the displays alone at the entrance are enough to make people stop and look.
Yueyue, with her lively and playful nature, pulled Wenxi around, letting her look at and touch everything. Her big, dark, grape-like eyes were full of curiosity and interest.
There were too many people here, and Wenxi couldn't keep an eye on her three children for a while.
There was a food street right next door, and Yueyue's eyes lit up when she smelled the aroma. Without even telling Wenxi, she followed the scent and went there.
The little girl quickly found the source of the aroma: a small teppanyaki shop.
Because the stall was too high for her, Yueyue had to stand on tiptoe to see clearly. The sizzling, oily grilled squid made her mouth water. "Uncle, it smells so good! This must be delicious!"
The little girl's pleading eyes are hard not to evoke feelings of tenderness, especially since she is delicate and adorable, with a chubby little face that looks incredibly cute.
The stall owner, a middle-aged man in his early forties, was amused by her and smiled broadly. "Would you like to try some?"
As he spoke, he took out two skewers of squid, thoughtfully cut them into small pieces, put them in a disposable paper bowl, stuck two toothpicks in it, and handed it to Yueyue, saying, "Uncle wants you to taste it for me."
Yueyue swallowed hard, a shy blush rising on her fair face. After landing on her toes, she quickly waved her little hand, "Mommy said that Yueyue can't take other people's things for free."
Just as she was about to say she was going back to get the money from Wen Xi, a somewhat familiar voice suddenly rang in her ears, "No way, some people don't even have money to buy food and eat for free, what a cheapskate, they're shameless!"
