Chapter 66: Xu Liu’s Meeting
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The next morning, when Gu Yun left for work, he did not wake Hai Tang up, so she slept until ten o’clock.
After a simple meal, Hai Tang sat in the study and began reading. She was engrossed in her book, and by the time she came back to her senses, it was already afternoon.
She saw a message from an unknown number on her phone. The content was: [Hai Tang, long time no see. I have some photos here that you must want to see. Let’s meet at the Impression Cafe at five o’clock this evening.] Hai Tang looked at the sender at the end. It was Xu Liu.
Didn’t Xu Liu just sign a contract with Yu Heng’s company? Why did he suddenly look for her and say that he had some photos that she wanted to see?
Hai Tang guessed that it might be because of yesterday’s trending searches, but she could not figure out what would make her and Xu Liu have a relationship. After all, she did not have much contact with Xu Liu in the past, and she had already left Yu Heng and married Gu Yun.
Out of curiosity, Hai Tang still arrived on time.
However, before she left, she sent a message to Gu Yun,[l went out to meet a friend at Impression Cafe.]
Gu Yun replied,”Okay, have fun.”]
When they arrived at the Impression Cafe, Hai Tang was led to a private room on the second floor by the waiter. As soon as she entered the private room, she saw Xu Liu, who had red lips painted on, sitting inside.
“Hello,” Hai Tang was the first to greet her politely.
Xu Liu smiled and gestured for her to sit across from him. He pushed her a cup of coffee. Hai Tang glanced at it but did not drink it. Instead, she asked, “”Miss Xu, is there anything you need from me?”
“You’re so vigilant. Are you afraid that I’ll drug the coffee?”Xu Liu said with a fake smile.
“That’s not it. It’s just that I don’t like things that suffer.”Hai Tang replied.
“But weren’t you used to suffering when you were by Yu Heng’s side?”Xu Liu lit a cigarette.
Hai Tang did not mind the sarcasm in her words. She said lightly,””That’s all in the past, isn’t it?”
“Yeah, you’re doing well now. You’ve hooked up with rich people and are covered in luxury brands. No wonder you left Yu Heng.”Xu Liu glanced sideways at Hai Tang’s clothes. Her entire body was from high-end luxury brands. It was obvious that she had found a big sugar daddy.
Hai Tang lowered her head and glanced at herself. Her clothes were randomly picked out when she went out. From the look in Xu Liu’s eyes, they should be expensive. However, she did not take Xu Liu’s mockery to heart. Instead, she replied coldly,””l’m here to listen to Miss Xu say something valuable. If you can’t say anything, then I’ll leave.”
Xu Liu snorted coldly.” Hmph, let me get straight to the point. Were you the one who tampered with the trending searches yesterday?””
“What?” Hai Tang did not quite understand what she meant and asked in confusion.
Xu Liu leaned back and blew out all the smoke on Hai Tang’s face.” Yu Heng and I are trending. Why did you buy the trending topic of ” Yu Heng likes his childhood sweetheart “? Are you deliberately trying to suppress me?”
As he spoke, Xu Liu glared at her in disgust and said,”All the cats and dogs are here to ride on my popularity. They’re really shameless.”
Hai Tang’s expression changed. She already understood that Xu Liu had misunderstood her as the instigator. She straightened her expression and explained,””Miss Xu, I think you’ve misunderstood. I don’t know anything about this at all, including these trending searches. I only saw them in the evening. I didn’t even treat his so-called childhood sweetheart as myself from the beginning. Besides, I’ve already broken up with Yu Heng. I don’t want to have anything to do with him anymore.”
Seeing Hai Tang speak so righteously, Xu Liu was speechless for a moment, but when he remembered how Yu Heng kept calling Hai Tang’s name last night, Xu Liu’s face darkened again.’”‘Who would believe your nonsense? Do you think I don’t know that you’ve been pestering Yu Heng for so many years?”
Hai Tang fell silent. She looked at the furious Xu Liu in confusion.
Fighting over a man was the most stupid thing she could do. So, for so many years, even though she had seen countless women around Yu Heng, she never quarreled or made a fuss.
This was also where Yu Heng found her boring. Sometimes, she was too calm, which made Yu Heng lose a lot of interest..
