A commotion suddenly broke out in the tea room.
The female employee nudged the stunned Xiao Xin with her elbow, smiling ambiguously: "Don't know him? You call that not knowing him?"
"..." Xiao Xin said nothing, walked up to the man, and said coldly, "Lead the way."
The man smiled politely, turned around, and led the way.
...
The president's office is on the 38th floor.
As soon as Xiao Xin entered the room, he saw a person standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
The man had his back to him; he was slender, with a waist so thin it could be encircled by one hand, as if a gust of wind could topple him over.
Xiao Xin walked two meters behind him, her voice unconsciously softening: "I heard you were looking for me?"
He spoke very softly, afraid that if he spoke loudly, he would scare the figure in front of him away.
Jiang Yuqing slowly turned around, and Xiao Xin paused noticeably the moment he saw those cold, clear eyes.
He unconsciously took two steps back, looking uncertainly at the person in front of him: "Jiang, Yuqing?"
Jiang Yuqing's lips curled into a strange smile as she slowly approached Xiao Xin with one hand in her pocket, finally stopping a foot away.
Xiao Xin stared at the magnified face before him, his pupils suddenly contracting, and he instinctively clenched his fist at his side: "It really is you..."
Jiang Yuqing twitched the corner of his mouth, which, combined with his slightly sickly pale face, made him look indescribably eerie.
"Yes, it's me."
Even the words he spoke carried a chilling aura that was suffocating.
Xiao Xin felt a chill spreading through his body, swallowed hard, and his long eyelashes trembled slightly: "You...you're not dead?"
If he remembered correctly, He Yunzhou was with Jiang Yuqing on the day he died, but Jiang Yuqing didn't die, while He Yunzhou did. The answer to this is obvious.
Jiang Yuqing suddenly leaned close to his ear and chuckled, "What, are you disappointed that I didn't die?"
Xiao Xin, breathing rapidly, suddenly lost control and grabbed Jiang Yuqing by the collar, shoving him against the French windows.
He pressed against Jiang Yuqing, his eyes red with anger: "Is He Yunzhou's death related to you?"
Jiang Yuqing's collar was gripped tightly by him, and she frowned uncomfortably: "I... I can't breathe..."
Xiao Xin grabbed his collar tightly: "I'm asking you, is He Yunzhou's death related to you...?"
He was so angry that his mind was buzzing, and he threw all reason to the back of his head.
A red mark was left on Jiang Yuqing's neck from being strangled. Her lips were slightly parted, and an unnatural blush rose on her face, making her look even more alluring.
Seeing that he seemed speechless, Xiao Xin finally let go of his hand. "So, you used this look to seduce He Yunzhou back then?"
Jiang Yuqing raised her hand and loosened the tie around her neck, panting as she turned her head to look at Xiao Xin: "What, are you jealous?"
Xiao Xin's nerves were torn between reason and collapse. Looking at Jiang Yuqing's unrestrained smile, he felt a wave of nausea.
He felt a sudden headache, squatted down, clutched his head, his fingers gripping his disheveled hair, and muttered unconsciously, "Why did He Yunzhou die? Why, why..."
Jiang Yuqing squatted down in front of him and asked with a smile, "Since you care so much about He Yunzhou's death, why are you with Fu Yan?"
Does it matter to you whether he lives or dies?
Xiao Xin suddenly looked up at him, her eyes filled with shock: "Are you even speaking human language? He's your boyfriend, that's a living, breathing human being. Don't you have any conscience saying such things?"
Jiang Yuqing chuckled and suddenly reached out her slender fingers to hook Xiao Xin's chin.
Xiao Xin instinctively shrank back because of the coldness of Jiang Yuqing's hand, but Jiang Yuqing pinched him hard, preventing him from retreating.
Xiao Xin glared at him with red eyes: "..."
Seeing that he had stopped struggling, Jiang Yuqing traced her icy fingers from Xiao Xin's earlobe to his collarbone, finally pressing her fingertips against his delicate Adam's apple, and sneered: "Xiao Xin, are you really stupid, or are you pretending? Wasn't He Yunzhou's death because of you?"
Xiao Xin: "I don't know what you're talking about..."
Jiang Yuqing suddenly grabbed his throat tightly, pressing her thumb against his Adam's apple with slight force, her smile growing colder.
Xiao Xin did not struggle, the veins on his neck were bulging from being pinched.
A sense of defeat suddenly rose in Jiang Yuqing's heart, and she let go of him.
He stood up straight, walked to the French windows, and looked out.
"Xiao Xin, I approached He Yunzhou because of you."
Xiao Xin couldn't believe it: "I..."
“That’s right,” Jiang Yuqing continued, “I tried to pursue you back then, but you always ignored me. I originally wanted to use He Yunzhou to get closer to you, but I didn’t expect that you liked that good-for-nothing.”
Xiao Xin: "You're crazy..."
Jiang Yuqing turned around, looked at him and smiled: "Two years ago, on the morning of your birthday, you confessed to He Yunzhou, but you hung up right after you finished the call. I'm sorry, I was the one who answered the phone, but you hung up before I could even explain..."
"Then that day I took He Yunzhou to the mountains, just so you wouldn't have to celebrate your birthday together."
"You liked him, so I was going to destroy him. But I never expected that you would fall for Fu Yan now. You're really something, Xiao Xin. I really underestimated you..."
Xiao Xin's mind was a complete mess. He straightened up and looked at Jiang Yuqing expressionlessly: "Jiang Yuqing, are you sick? Do I even know you? And you're already saying you like me?"
“Xin Xin,” Jiang Yuqing suddenly called out to him, “Have you forgotten that time in the cafeteria? I had low blood sugar, and you took me to the infirmary. After that, I wrote you love letters, and you rejected me countless times. But I’ve never met anyone more arrogant than me. You’re the first, which makes me find you even more interesting…”
Jiang Yuqing turned to him and gave him a relieved smile: "But none of that matters. You don't need a reason to like someone. Since you don't like me, I'll just destroy everything you like. What do you think, Xin Xin..."
