A look of surprise flashed across Hua Ruoling's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. "What secret? I don't understand what you're talking about."
Shi Xi's eyes curved into a smile, "Are you really not understanding, or are you pretending not to understand?"
Hua Ruoling's eyes flickered as she stared at Shi Xi, her heart filled with astonishment.
What exactly does Shi Xi know?!
"However, I've never liked meddling. As long as you stay away from me and don't provoke me, I'm happy to keep your secret for free." Shi Xi had no idea what Hua Ruoling's secret was.
All she knew was that Xie Er was threatening Hua Ruoling in order to make her behave herself.
Hua Ruoling remained defiant, "I have no secrets, you don't need to lie to me."
Shi Xi shrugged and walked past Hua Ruoling.
Shi Xi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she hadn't followed her.
She genuinely didn't want to get entangled with these rich kids.
All they know is romance and love.
Can't we just focus on making money?
What kind of social climbing is done in order to marry into a wealthy family?
She curries favor with the powerful and wealthy just to make money!
What are the advantages of marrying into a wealthy family?
Shi Xi thought to herself, "Once I have money, what kind of man can't I have?"
Sweet face, queen's heart.
Shi Xi went to the exit to wait for Sheng Yan, but before Sheng Yan arrived, Xie Er arrived first.
When Xie Er saw Shi Xi, a confident smile appeared on his lips. "What? Waiting for me here?"
Shi Xi resisted the urge to roll her eyes. "No."
Xie Er remained confident, "I know, all women are like this, saying one thing and meaning another."
I've seen this kind of feigned indifference trick many times. Weren't you deliberately waiting for me to come out here?
Shi Xi's gaze fell on Xie Er, and she smiled slightly, "Sorry, I didn't intend to leave."
After Xie Er spoke like that, Shi Xi, who had originally intended to leave, no longer wanted to go.
Shi Xi walked to a corner of the banquet, picked up an ice cream strawberry pudding, and scooped out a large spoonful.
Today has been truly a day of bad luck!
Xie Er wanted to continue following Shi Xi, but was stopped by Hua Ruoling halfway.
Hua Ruoling said, "Come with me!"
They finally realized they needed to plot something bad.
The two went to the empty balcony.
Hua Ruoling was furious. "I helped you get the lowest offer from Hua's Group, and you've made my secret known to everyone?"
"When did I make your secret known to everyone?" Xie Er was completely confused.
"Shi Xi just came to my side and said she knows my secret." Hua Ruoling gritted her teeth. "Didn't you tell her?"
Xie Er asked in disbelief, "How could I have told her these things?"
"How did she know?"
Shi Xi, who was eating pudding while hiding by the balcony, looked conflicted.
How would I know?
Isn't it because you guys are too loud?
Although it's quiet here, it doesn't mean it's completely secluded!
Why can't you guys chat on WeChat? Or book a hotel room?
Hua Ruoling and Xie Er had also considered the things Shi Xi had thought of.
But they don't trust technology and are afraid of being caught red-handed, so they never interact on WeChat and always communicate face-to-face.
However, face-to-face communication is not safe!
Shi Xi didn't want to listen to their conversation anymore.
According to the novel's premise, the more you know, the faster you die.
She just wanted to be a rich woman who knew nothing about the world.
Shi Xi left cautiously.
"Shi Xi? What are you doing here?"
But then a gentle voice called out to her.
Shi Xi held the pudding and wondered to herself, "Who the hell is so tactless as to call out to me?"
Looking up, Shi Xi discovered that the person standing in front of her was actually Hua Xuanhe.
Oh wow.
Hua Xuanhe is here?!
"I just hid away to eat something." Shi Xi blinked, looking playful and cute.
