Chapter 475: 475, seems, there is a problem
Standing at the corner, Song Qinghuan bit her lip, unable to move. She didn’t want to eavesdrop on someone’s private conversation, she just wanted to know if she really knew Bai Rubing.
She didn’t know what was said on the other side of the call, but Bai Rubing got angrier: “… Yes, I do have someone I like, don’t compare yourself with him. I’m nothing compared to him, and I’m not afraid to tell you, he is my boss… not a supervisor, but the big boss of our company.”
Song Qinghuan was horrified, stupefied, and her head was spinning.
Was the person Bai Rubing liked her boss, her big boss? That must be Shi Yuhuan…
“I never agreed to this marriage from the beginning, it was always my mother who spoke to your mother, I don’t know what they talked about, but whatever my mother said mustn’t have been what I said. I explicitly told you the day after we met that we couldn’t be possible, but I don’t know how my mother communicated to your mother. I still don’t understand how they let us meet again…”
Song Qinghuan couldn’t bear to listen anymore, her complexion was ashen, Bai Rubing’s voice was cold and harsh. People who didn’t know any better might think she was chatting with her sworn enemy.
Yet despite this, Song Qinghuan could guess what was going on. Most likely Bai Rubing’s parents wanted Bai Rubing to agree on a blind date.
After coming back from the blind date, she told her mother that the man was not her type. But, her mother didn’t give the truth and must have loved the man very much, hoping he would become her son-in-law, so she concealed everything, even pushing towards getting them engaged or even married.
Even if so, wasn’t Bai Rubing being a little too much? She had been harassed by Zhan Cheng before and knew the torment and worry, but she had always tried not to hurt Zhan Cheng while rejecting him.
The harshest words she ever said were probably when she told him to die because of a text message.
Speaking of the text message, Song Qinghuan suddenly felt like it might be connected to Bai Rubing.
She might be overthinking but today Bai Rubing burnt a bad impression in her heart.
Afterward, Song Qinghuan was a bit distracted. She finished eating and played with her phone, occasionally stealing glances at Bai Rubing.
Bai Rubing appeared as if nothing had happened, still chatting and laughing radiantly, like a delicate yet unpretentious social butterfly, completely at ease among the elites.
Everyone except Shi Yuhuan, who didn’t even glance her way. He didn’t look anyone in the eye, just indifferently stared straight ahead.
The crowd chatted about boring topics until Shi Yuhuan abruptly stood up, indifferently announcing, “Excuse me, everyone, I have something to attend to. Please enjoy.”
Everyone stood up to see him out.
After Shi Yuhuan left, everyone exhaled in relief, thinking they could finally relax.
Before leaving, Shi Yuhuan took a deep look at Song Qinghuan, the warning in his eyes was too obvious to miss.
Thus, she pursed her lips and sat quietly for a minute before she, too, stood up and politely announced, “Excuse me, everyone, I have to go. Please enjoy.”
All eyes turned to Song Qinghuan. The looks were complex, but not difficult to read the contempt mixed within, as if they all assumed she was trying to follow Shi Yuhuan.
Only Bi Yuntao looked disappointed. He stood up and offered, “I see, shall I walk you back then?”
