Chapter 4 - Chance Encounter

Bai Qian went straight to the shopping mall in the city center. She pushed her shopping cart towards the snack area. She wanted to buy some snacks for her children.

As she was walking, a familiar voice came from the big screen above her head. She suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Thank you for your concern, everyone. However, Lu Rong and I want to focus on our careers at the moment. We are not in a hurry to get married. When we have good news, we will definitely inform everyone!"

On the screen, Qi Yue's face was blissful. When she mentioned Lu Rong, the corners of her mouth would curl up into a smile. That smile came from the bottom of her heart.

"That means to say, we will hear good news soon then."

Qi Yue's face instantly turned red. At this moment, her silence was better than words.

Bai Qian's heart tightened. She could not help but clench her fingers as she tightly gripped the handle of the shopping cart.

The so-called suicide note that was supposedly written by Bai Qian six years ago did not just reveal the truth of her 'infidelity'. It also contained words that begged Lu Rong to take care of her sister, and it would be best if he could marry her.

When this suicide note was revealed, no one doubted its authenticity. It was really killing two birds with one stone.

With a bang, her train of thought was interrupted.

Tilting her head, her pupils constricted, and she saw someone she didn't expect.

The man was tall, and compared to six years ago, he appeared more mature and steady. There was a faint sense of oppression between his brows. Even if she was a step away from him, she could still clearly feel it.

At this moment, the shopping cart in his hand happened to be at the front of her cart.

The man looked at her coldly, he neither moved nor spoke a word.

Bai Qian's throat seemed to be blocked by something. She moved the shopping cart stiffly and took two steps back. "I'm sorry."

Lu Rong's indifferent gaze swept past her, and the disappointment in his eyes disappeared in a flash.

Only then did Bai Qian remember that back then, she had been in a car accident and then fell into the sea. Her entire face had been destroyed, and then it got infected and started festering. She had no choice but to have plastic surgery so that her face could at least look presentable.

But after that, the results of the plastic surgery were really too good. When she first saw her appearance, she was stunned. Her entire face was so perfect that not a single flaw could be picked out.

She flipped her hair and pointed to the passage in front of her. She said to Lu Rong, "Mr. Lu, after you."

"You know me?" When Lu Rong heard this unfamiliar voice, he could not help but frown.

"Mr. Lu, who in the city doesn't know you?" Bai Qian smiled at him ambiguously. She casually pointed at the screen and said, "Just now, the screen was playing an interview with your fiancée. Your deceased wife has passed away for so long, yet you never forgot about her last words. You still take care of her sister on her behalf. You really have deep feelings for your deceased wife."

Since he had used her 'suicide note' as an excuse, why not use it to disgust him?

She watched with satisfaction as Lu Rong's eyes gradually turned cold.

'Lu Rong oh Lu Rong, you have to endure these disgusting words. Compared to the grievances I have suffered, this is nothing.'

In Lu Rong's impression, he had never seen this woman in front of him. However, her figure was too similar to Qi Qian's. Even the little movements of how she tucked and flipped her hair were exactly the same. Thus, he couldn't help but walk over earlier.

But now it seemed that this woman in front of him wasn't Qi Qian as she had thorns all over her. Qi Qian on the other hand was gentle and well-behaved. She wouldn't talk to him like this at all.

"Lu Rong!" a woman wearing a dark red coat walked over quickly. She held onto Lu Rong's arm affectionately and called out delicately.

Lu Rong asked in a neutral voice, "Are you done?"

The woman shook the chocolate box in her hand and said, "Yes. Let's go pay the bill."

"Okay."

Bai Qian looked at the back of the man and woman who were gradually disappearing into the distance. Her nails were deeply embedded in her palm, but she did not feel any pain.

'Lu Rong, Qi Yue! I will not let the both of you off!'
