I looked at the smile on Lin Xiaxian's face and just felt it was irksome and irritating.
Even though I didn't want to encounter Lin Xiaxian, we always ended up meeting by what seemed like coincidences.
If it hadn't been for overhearing her conversation with Gu Zhiyan in the restaurant last time, I would have mistaken her for a fragile, easily bullied woman, clinging to men like a parasitic vine.
After all, the first time we met, she cried pitifully, yet her words were cunning, drawing forth a man's compassion.
But during our later interactions, I realized Lin Xiaxian was not as simple as just being a green tea type. On the surface she appeared pure and flawless, but once you dug deeper, it was all dark inside.
"Miss Lin, this is asking the obvious, I came to Cheng Yu's company; it couldn't solely be to visit you, could it?"
My tone was slightly mocking. I hadn't fully investigated the matter of the gemstone yet, but I felt it was closely connected to Lin Xiaxian.
