Rebirth from the Ashes Chapter 229

Chapter 229 - Come Around

“Waiter.” Shen Xi impatiently cried. “There’s a crow here disrupting the peace and quiet.”

Li Jingran shot Shen Xi an angry look and growled through clenched teeth. “Brat! Do you know who you’re talking to?”

How dare the brat called her a crow. How could Li Jingran possibly give birth to such a rude and insolent thing!

Across the room, Chen Nan arrived late and embarrassedly drew close. “Xixi, I was held up with something a moment ago. Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Shen Xi politely put away the phone and smiled at him. “It’s okay. I just got here.”

Chen Nan helped Shen Xi with her schoolbag rather habitually. He smiled obligingly as he just noticed Li Jingran. “Ms. Li, you’re here as well.”

Removing all negative sentiments, Li Jingran resumed her dignified and classy self as she returned with a nod and a smile. “Oh, she’s a friend of yours, Mr. Chen.”

Chen Nan immediately replied, “Oh, no, I’m not worthy of that title. She’s a guest of Zhizhi. Zhizhi’s waiting on us so we should get going.”

Fury overtook Li Jingran as Chen Nan led Shen Xi away. She clenched her teeth so hard blood could be drawn.

The d*mn brat. Shen Xi got chummy with Gong Zhi and became some sort of guest to rile her up. The brat was trying to drive her mad by doing so when Li Jingran was here.

Li He caught the sight of Shen Xi as he was walking over and sighed. He was afraid to say anything to Li Jingran who was in a fit of anger to avoid adding fuel to the fire.

He had a feeling that the Su family’s castaway biological daughter was no ordinary person. Jingran’s biggest loss was perhaps cutting ties with her.

Gong Zhi was no Miss Goody-Two-Shoes either and was known to be a snob. There was only a handful in the entertainment industry whom she would be so accommodating to send her manager to fetch on her behalf.

Moreover, the girl had an unclear relationship with Mr. Fu. Her value would be immeasurable if Mr. Fu took a fancy to her.

He must lay it all out to Jingran once she simmered down to see if she would come around to accept the girl back into the family.

Despite the hoo-ha, at the end of the day, they were a family. Blood was thicker than water.

“Jingran, let’s go. Mr. Fu is dining in the restaurant on the top floor,” Li He told her.

Jingran wanted to meet with Mr. Fu to ask for Cai Ni. However, they were not able to chance an encounter until today.

Li He asked around and found out that Mr. Fu was staying in the First Snow Hotel. After completing his itinerary of the day, he would dine at the hotel in the afternoon.

Hence, he planned out this encounter to run into him in the restaurant. Jingran could grab the chance to dine with Mr. Fu and it would be easier to bring up the matter then.

Mr. Fu had gone to the top-floor restaurant ten minutes ago. Li He went to take a quick look and made sure only he and his manager, Jing Yu, were around. Mr. Fu was dining alone.

“Sure.” Li Jingran resentfully watched Shen Xi and Li He went into the lift. Her chest was tight, and her head was buzzing. Li Jingran did not see eye to eye with the vile brat and she never wanted to see Shen Xi again.

“Jingran, get a grip.” Li He reminded her.

Li Jingran often got herself in a frenzy every time she ran into her biological daughter. The statement that children were the death of the parents rang true in Li Jingran’s case.

Pulling herself together, Li Jingran elegantly and gracefully rocked her heels and followed Li He into the lift.
