Chapter 103: Chapter 103: Did you arrange Su Lianxi’s matter?
Su Zixi woke up from a dream and asked subconsciously, “Was it you who arranged Su Lianxi’s matter?”
“Hm?” He Jingyao smiled faintly, tactfully responding, “I couldn’t have guessed she would go seduce the investor.”
He had thought that since Su Lianxi already had Ning Yichen, she wouldn’t be so shortsighted. Apparently, he had overestimated Su Lianxi’s intelligence.
Su Zixi asked awkwardly, “So, you’re saying today’s incident has nothing to do with you?”
“When you left school to go to the Su Family, I got the news immediately,” He Jingyao furrowed his brows, “so, it’s not entirely unrelated to me.”
Su Zixi felt a bit guilty, “I’m sorry…”
“Why apologize?” there was a glimpse of amusement in He Jingyao’s eyes.
“I thought all these things were orchestrated by you…” Su Zixi felt even more guilty.
She felt her assumptions were wildly exaggerated—if it were true, wouldn’t it mean that Ning Yichen, Su Lianxi, and including herself, were all being manipulated by this man?
“No need to apologize,” He Jingyao looked at her intently, “after all, this result is indeed what I anticipated.”
Su Zixi’s cheeks heated up, her heart pounding.
She cleared her throat, stood up, and said, “Well, I should go back to my room to study.” With that, she rushed away.
Lost in her bashful feelings, Su Zixi completely failed to realize that He Jingyao hadn’t really denied her suspicion.
…
Su Zixi lay on her bed browsing Weibo on her phone.
In the evening, a famous paparazzi exposed evidence of a big-name celebrity’s affair. The netizens were suddenly riled up, and Su Lianxi, who had not yet entered the entertainment industry, was quickly forgotten. Although HI Group was well-known, He Jingyao’s photo had never been circulated online, so ordinary netizens naturally didn’t pay as much attention to him as they did to the big-name celebrities, and thus the marriage news also didn’t attract much attention.
For Su Zixi, this was certainly good news. However, Su Lianxi benefited from it, too.
She knew this must be Ning Yichen’s doing, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence.
If that was the case, didn’t it mean that even if Su Lianxi had betrayed him, Ning Yichen still chose to forgive her, even helping her smooth over the incident?
He actually loved Su Lianxi that much!
Su Zixi couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
It seemed her decision to let go was wise. If Ning Yichen was deeply in love with Su Lianxi, then even if he knew that she had been the one caring for him for three years, he wouldn’t likely start liking her.
She suddenly wished she could confront Ning Yichen and ask him what was so good about Su Lianxi that he would do all this for her.
But what right did she have?
Now that she was He Jingyao’s wife, the last possibility with Ning Yichen had also completely vanished. Besides, if she still couldn’t forget Ning Yichen, wouldn’t that be a betrayal to He Jingyao? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even though there was still a bit of sourness in her heart, in time, she would inevitably let go completely.
With that in mind, she took a deep breath, forcefully closed the page, threw her phone aside, and opened a book to read.
Soon, she heard a knock on the door.
Su Zixi leaped up from the bed, walked over, and opened the door, only to see He Jingyao standing outside in a black shirt.
Your eyes smiled, deep and tender, making Su Zixi’s heart tremble.
“Is there… is there anything you need?” she stuttered.
What do you think?
