Chapter 554: 554, Chance Encounter, About Finding Sister
Seemingly feeling her gaze, Li Chengyun slowly turned his head, his eyes drifting towards her. There was no hint of surprise, just an ambiguous expression caught somewhere between a smirk and a smile, that felt ice-cold and devoid of warmth.
“Hey!!” Song Qinghuan found the situation somewhat awkward and uncomfortable, but being acquainted, she still gave a soft greeting.
“What brings you here?” Li Chengyun’s voice was icy cold.
Before Qinghuan could reply, another excited voice rang out spontaneously, “Miss Bai, you are actually in New York.”
A figure was sprinting towards Qinghuan at a rapid pace.
Arms wide open, as if to give Song Qinghuan a big hug, only to be stopped by Qinghuan raising her hands: “Li Qianze, you’re in New York too!”
Because of Li Qianze’s arrival, Song Qinghuan no longer felt the suffocating isolation with Li Chengyun.
She couldn’t help it; she always thought that Li Chengyun was colder and harder to deal with than Shi Yuhuan.
“You two catch up. I have things to do!” In his dignified and aloof manner, Li Chengyun glanced briefly at the pair before turning to leave.
Li Qianze, his brows relaxed in amusement, waved at him before turning to Song Qinghuan, “Did you come by yourself? Where’s your brother?”
Song Qinghuan curved her lips into a smile, “I came alone.”
Speaking of this made her feel sad, she really didn’t want anyone to know that she was abandoned right before boarding and hence came alone.
“Oh, so that’s how it is…” Li Qianze noticed that something was off with Song Qinghuan’s expression but was unsure whether he should ask what had happened.
After some thought, he decided to let it go. In such a wonderful encounter, anything unpleasant should be set aside to enjoy the joy of being reunited.
Seeing Li Qianze, Song Qinghuan’s mood improved a lot. She asked him with a smile, “Why are you and your brother in New York? On a business trip?”
Li Qianze chuckled lightly and shook his head, sounding somewhat melancholic, “No, we’re here looking for our sister.”
Song Qinghuan was taken aback, “Looking for your sister?” 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Li Qianze nodded, “Yes, have I ever told you that I have a younger sister? She was taken away just a few days after her birth, and we’ve been looking for her ever since. Despite years of searching, we’ve had no news. My brother is weird; some Feng Shui master told him that our sister would show up in New York these days and he genuinely believed it. So here we are, roaming around New York for days, without any certainty that our sister is even alive, blindly searching for her. I find it ridiculous.”
Song Qinghuan was so surprised, she laughed out loud, “Li Qianze, stop joking, okay? Your brother, Li Chengyun, listened to a Feng Shui master saying that your sister might appear in New York in recent days, so you guys came to find her. Are you sure the person who wanted to come to New York to find your sister was your brother, Li Chengyun, and not you?”
“Yes, it was my brother!” Li Qianze confirmed with a nod.
She chuckled in disbelief.
Song Qinghuan shook her head, finding it hard to believe, “Your brother would listen to a Feng Shui master’s words? Please, do you think I’m a three-year-old kid? Please, stop teasing me!”
Li Qianze looked at her very seriously, “I’m not teasing you, okay? Everything I’m saying is true. After my sister was lost in the hospital, our family had been searching for her but found nothing. We finally gave up later. After my brother took over the Li Family, he started looking for our sister vigorously. However, many imposters claimed to be our sister and showed up at the Li’s, which infuriated my brother. Since then, he kept this matter a secret from the public and only carried out the search secretly.”
