After a while, Su Tang asked a waiter for paper and pen, wrote down an address, and handed it to Bai Shiying.
Bai Shiying took it, glanced at it, folded the paper in half, and put it into her bag.
Bai Shiying looked at Su Tang, opened her mouth, then pursed her lips, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
"Sister Shiying, is there anything else?" Her tone was devoid of emotion, but there was no smile on her face.
"Is Xie Wei the person behind Chihiro?"
"Didn't that person from the Ouyang family tell you?"
"Is Chihiro's founding related to me?"
"Yes," even though Su Tang didn't want to admit it, it was the truth.
"You helped me before?" Bai Shiying knew her previous situation. If it weren't for someone helping her, she might not have been able to stay in this circle.
She knew nothing about the person who helped her. Before coming, she thought it was Xie Wei, but upon closer inspection, the timing didn't match up.
She had a gut feeling that the person who was helping her was the one sitting across from her right now.
"Hmm," Su Tang didn't deny it. With the Bai family's power, as long as they were willing to investigate, they could still find out these things.
Why are you helping me?
"Don't misunderstand, I'm not doing this to help you, I'm just helping Xingzhi." Su Tang and Bai Shiying looked at each other and noticed a hint of gratitude in each other's eyes, and she chuckled.
"No need to thank me in a hurry. After all, you're just a link in my plan to pursue Brother Xingzhi. We should be considered to be in a mutually beneficial relationship."
Bai Shiying nodded and then asked another question.
"So what about now? If we're going to talk about rivals, then why are you helping me now?"
"Rival in love? No, you don't deserve that word. You'll only be worthy of it when you fully realize what it means."
I'm only helping you now to repay a debt of gratitude.
"Because of you, I have felt jealousy, envy, and disgust, but I have also appreciated and been grateful." Looking out the window, she seemed to be reminiscing about the past.
"Grateful?" Bai Shiying was a little puzzled.
"Yes, I'm grateful," Su Tang said, looking at Bai Shiying with a smile. "Originally, I wouldn't have had the chance to stay by Xingzhi's side, but it's all because of you."
"It was because I let him step into that world that I am able to stay by his side now."
"...It's too early to say some things now. I just hope that once you fully remember, whatever choice you make, you won't hurt Xingzhi's heart again."
"If we can't be sisters, I don't want to be your enemy either," Su Tang said before leaving.
Bai Shiying watched Su Tang's retreating figure, finished her coffee, picked up her bag, and left.
"Please help me ask for a day off," Bai Shiying said to her agent, sitting on the sofa and looking at the address Su Tang had written down. "Or you can cancel everything."
"Seriously?"
"Hmm, even more real than pearls."
Have you decided what you want to do?
Bai Shiying raised her eyes, her gaze filled with unwavering determination: "I'm going to the capital to pursue someone very important!"
