Chapter 523 - Su Jianan’s Rival in Love (2)
Su Jianan’s rival in love?
Xiao Yunyun couldn’t help staring.
It was Lu Boyan who Su Jianan married and he was the perfect man in more than ninety percent of the girls’ dreams in City A. So it was normal for Su Jianan to have one or two rivals in love.
But Han Ruoxi who was such a competent rival was already behind bars. There was still someone who wanted to get involved in Su Jianan and Lu Boyan’s relationship?
Xiao Yunyun asked curiously, “Cousin, which heroine is so brave and bold?”
Luo Xiaoxi directed Yunyun’s attention the other way. “On your eleven o’clock, there’s a woman in a blue dress. Her name is Xia Mili who was your cousin-in-law’s classmate when they were studying in America.”
“Classmate?” Xiao Yunyun was inwardly worried, “Then, does Xia Mili know my cousin-in-law since long time ago?”
“Calm down!” Luo Xiaoxi patted Xiao Yunyun’s shoulder, “Your cousin met her when she was ten years old!”
“That’s right.” Then Xiao Yunyun remembered that the love between Lu Boyan and Su Jianan was a typical puppy love and nodded. “Then my cousin still wins. That’s great!”
Luo Xiaoxi gave Xiao Yunyun an approving eye and changed the topic, “But we still have to keep an eye on that woman!”
Xiao Yunyun asked, “Do we? Everyone in the world knows the attitude my cousin-in-law has on regards to my cousin! Besides, their babies will come into the world soon! Then, why do we still have to watch her?”
“Because Xia Mili still has feelings for you cousin-in-law!” Luo Xiaoxi looked angry. “A few days ago, your cousin received some photos showing your cousin-in-law going into a hotel with the woman!”
“…”
“…”
“I… f*ck!” After making sure that she hadn’t heard it wrong, Xiao Yunyun almost jumped up, “What is going on? Is there really something going on between that woman and my cousin-in-law?”
“It’s still unknown whether they have any kind of relationship but your cousin believes in him. She just feels strange about those photos and has forgotten about them.” Luo Xiaoxi glanced at Xia Mili with anger. “But I can’t pretend they don’t exist! I don’t know why this shrimp showed up at my wedding but it can’t be wrong to watch her!”
Shrimp?
Xiao Yunyun wanted to laugh but a great sense of mission stopped her.
She nodded solemnly. “I got it! Sis, I will watch Xia… the shrimp!”
Then, Luo Xiaoxi calmly went on according to the wedding procedures.
Xiao Yunyun was watching Xia Mili like a closed circuit camera.
Su Jianan’s enemy was her enemy! She wouldn’t knock her enemy down. She would just beat her to death!
While Xiao Yunyun was on her surveillance mission, Shen Yuechuan was still surrounded by other best men and bridesmaids who tried to dig out more gossip about him and Xiao Yunyun. They asked Shen Yuechuan if he was claiming his possession by draping Xiao Yunyun’s shoulders with his coat.
But Shen Yuechuan was skilled at debating and it only took him a few words to fend off their attacks. He glanced through the crowd and quickly noticed Xiao Yunyun who was sneaking around.
He walked over and patted Xiao Yunyun’s shoulder from behind. “What are you doing?”
“Wow!” Xiao Yunyun was terribly scared. She covered her chest and turned around to stare at Shen Yuechuan, “Don’t just scare people randomly!”
“It’s daytime and you were so easily scared…” Shen Yuechuan stared at Xiao Yunyun with suspicion, “Are you being a thief?”
Xiao Yunyun denied, “You’re the thief! I’m just…”
When she was speaking halfway, she suddenly recalled Luo Xiaoxi’s words: “Su Jianan has just forgotten about the photos which showed Lu Boyan and Xia Mili walking into the hotel together.”
It was to say that even if there was something going on between Lu Boyan and Xia Mili, Lu Boyan didn’t know Su Jianan had received the photos.
But according to Shen Yuechuan’s relationship with Lu Boyan, Shen Yuechuan would surely know something if there was really some unspeakable relationship between Lu Boyan and Xia Mili.
If she honestly told him that she was spying on Xia Mili, it would be indirectly telling Lu Boyan that Su Jianan knew about Xia Mili’s existence.
Shen Yuechuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Yunyun who was still hesitating. “Just what?”
He knew Xiao Yunyun quite well so her actions were even stranger for him—a frank and direct girl like Xiao Yunyun wouldn’t even finish her words. It wasn’t her style.
He glanced in the direction Xiao Yunyun was looking and sharply captured a kind of familiar figure—Xia Mili.
Xia Mili was surely attending Su Yicheng’s wedding in the name of the company. Xiao Yunyun and Xia Mili didn’t know each other. Since she was secretly staring at Xia Mili, it was easy for him to imagine that Su Jianan knew about her.
But as far as he knew, Lu Boyan had yet to tell Su Jianan about Xia Mili, in case she would overthink about it.
Being the case, the reason why Su Jianan knew about Xia Mili and the reason why Xiao Yunyun watched Xia Mili for Su Jianan’s sake were unknown.
Thinking about that, Shen Yuechuan quietly looked back and leisurely looked at Xiao Yunyun.
Xiao Yunyun had no idea that her secret had been cracked. She waited for a while and said with difficulty, “I’m just wondering… if I can have a rest. I’m so tired.”
“Of course you can,” Shen Yuechuan said, “You can choose to enjoy the afternoon tea or a spa. Or you can just sleep in a room, do as you like.”
Xiao Yunyun nodded. Seeing Xia Mili heading to the hotel, she hurriedly said, “I haven’t decided yet. I’ll go back to the hotel first!”
Shen Yuechuan looked at Xiao Yunyun’s figure, then he shook his head and scolded inside, “Idiot.”
She tried to lie when she was usually unable to hide anything. Her behavior clearly showed that she was following Xia Mili.
Xiao Yunyun was really watching Xia Mili for Su Jianan’s sake. It seemed to be getting more and more interesting.
On the other side, Xiao Yunyun followed Xia Mili back to the lobby of the hotel.
There was an open cafeteria on the south of the lobby. When looking through the windows, you could see most of the view of the garden. It was a good place to enjoy the afternoon tea.
Xia Mili chose a place to sit down. Xiao Yunyun tapped on her phone and sat beside Xia Mili while pretending to be casual.
Apart from the prejudice she held, Xiao Yunyun had to admit Xia Mili was a glamorous woman.
She was tall and dressed in a long blue gown which not only flowed with her beautiful curves but it also enhanced her pure skin. Every move of hers showed her attractive elegance.
It was even rarer that there was a feeling of efficiency which added to her elegance.
Once she sat on the couch, Xia Mili took over the laptop from her assistant. Her well-protected fingers tapped on the screen. She leaned over and held the phone between her ear and shoulder to talk about business matters on the phone with fluent German. Her words were brief and clear, with strong logic and mighty power.
What’s more, her mighty power was just a symbol of her capability without a single attack, which not only raised other women’s defense against her, but would spare hindering the brightness of men.
Such a woman couldn’t be described with her smarts alone. There was nothing in the world she couldn’t get as long as she wanted it.
If she really had feelings for Lu Boyan… Xiao Yunyun thought the conditions wouldn’t be as optimistic as she had imagined. Compared with Han Ruoxi, Xia Mili was a stronger opponent.
At the time, Xia Mili hung up the phone and passed the laptop to her assistant, “At what time is the appointment that you scheduled with Steven?”
“According to what Special Assistant Shen said, Boss Lu was free at 7 pm. You can have dinner together.”
Xia Mili thought for a second and said, “Cancel the arrangement I have from 5 to 6. I have to go back to the hotel to get prepared.”
The assistant replied, “Okay.”
Xia Mili processed a couple of other things related with her job and then stood up. “Let’s go out and see how the wedding is going.” She had another mission, except for attending Su Yicheng’s wedding for her company.
After Xia Mili and her assistant had been gone for some time, Xiao Yunyun realized Steven was Lu Boyan’s English name, which was to say, Lu Boyan and Xia Mili had an appointment to meet on the next day. From Xia Mili’s tone, they wouldn’t be meeting for work.
If it were for work reasons, Xia Mili wouldn’t have to cancel the schedule before meeting Lu Boyan and getting dressed up for it.
There was no need to ask her why she knew Xia Mili would go home earlier to dress up. She was also a woman and could definitely see what Xia Mili had in mind.
At the moment, it seemed that she had to secretly ask Shen Yuechuan about it the next time he saw him.
After making up her mind, Xiao Yunyun walked out of the hotel and was dragged into a game. Maybe someone arranged it on purpose or it was just a coincidence. She became Shen Yuechuan’s partner once more.
Others wooed about it and claimed it to be destiny.
After getting along with this group of people for so long, Xiao Yunyun understood that any sign of nervousness would be taken as admission about her obsession for Shen Yuechuan.
After thinking for a minute, she just pretended that she couldn’t understand their behavior and cooperated with Shen Yuechuan. Then they won rounds of the game and made all the others lose terribly.
Gradually, the best men and bridesmaids lost in their efforts to tease. They just wailed miserably.
Xiao Yunyun got happier and pulled Shen Yuechuan. “I think we can still be partners in the following game!”
Shen Yuechuan smiled.
Even if Xiao Yunyun didn’t say it, others would arrange for them to be partners!
Luo Xiaoxi watched the show by the side and instantly understood Xiao Yunyun’s plan. She leaned over and said to Su Yicheng, “Yunyun is much cleverer than we thought!”
Su Yicheng smiled. “Don’t forget that she’s a graduate from medical academy.”
“But how could she fail to see Yuechuan likes her?” Luo Xiaoxi racked her brain but still couldn’t come up with an answer. She sighed. “When it comes to love, the ones involved never see things clearly——just like you couldn’t see you had fallen in love with me long ago!”
“…”
Su Yicheng kneaded his temple and said to himself, “Everything your wife says is correct.”
