Chapter 347 - Two Coincidental Encounters
Chapter 347: Two Coincidental Encounters
Su Mushi took a while to react and instinctively replied, “How could Wanwan have a good relationship with Pei Xu?”
“I’m talking about Shen Xi!” Su Yi glared at him viciously, pointed at him, and clenched his teeth. “Get changed now and come with me to find her!”
Su Mushi was weak from the beating and dared not speak. His body was wounded and even breathing was painful, but he obediently went to get dressed.
Su Muyan did not speak. Su Muxuan glanced at him, and they saw the same abhorrence in each other’s eyes.
‘Shen Xi? That vicious brat probably wanted our family to die, so why would she help us? Dad is really dreaming.’
**
In the evening, Shen Xi accompanied Yun Jinping to the neighborhood supermarket to buy groceries. From afar, she saw a black Bentley parked about 500 meters in front of them.
A man was standing next to the Bentley and talking on the phone. The warm orange sunset shone on him, eliminating some of his coldness and unapproachable vibes.
The man stood out and had such a kingly aura that it was hard to ignore.
Yun Jinping noticed him too and felt that her daughter was looking at the man. She asked in a soft voice, “He’s very handsome, huh?”
Shen Xi snorted and averted her gaze. She muttered, “So what? What’s so good about being handsome?!”
The man was Fu Qingli.
‘What kind of sh*tty luck do I have to bump into him twice in a day?!’
Yun Jinping took her daughter’s arm and said with a smile, “Well, you’re right, but at least he’s pleasing to the eye.”
“Mom, if you do this again, I’ll tell Old Shen about this!” Shen Xi threatened.
Yun Jinping said, “Go ahead then!”
Shen Xi looked at her. “Mom, I’ve noticed that since you started working, you’ve taken more interest in handsome men. Don’t get influenced by my teacher.”
Yun Jinping smiled. “Everyone would appreciate youths that are full of vitality!”
She herself had noticed that after working and gaining exposure to new things, she could maintain a young mind and felt energized.
As the pair of mother and daughter walked and talked, they soon approached where Fu Qingli was standing.
Shen Xi did not look at him and brushed past him.
Fu Qingli saw the little girl the moment she appeared in his sight. Her face that had an uncanny resemblance to his mother was bright with smiling eyes.
The older woman with gentle eyes that she was holding was her adoptive mother.
When the two came toward him, he had a momentary hallucination; perhaps because the sunlight was too soft.
He thought he saw Shen Xi holding his mother’s arm as they waved at him.
After a moment’s illusion, everything returned to normal. The little girl standing across from him only took a glance at him, then averted her cold eyes and did not look at him again.
On the contrary, her adoptive mother looked at him several times.
Fu Qingli did not mean to do anything when he saw her pass by, but he became irritated when he saw her ignore him and brush by him indifferently.
He was certain she recognized him and she most likely did too from a previous encounter in her hometown.
“Shen Xi.” Fu Qingli instantly regretted calling out to her.
However, his actions preceded his thoughts. He had already shouted her name.
Shen Xi did not even turn her head and pretended not to hear him.
Yun Jinping tugged on her daughter’s arm. “Xixi, do you know him?”
Shen Xi shook her head and quickened her pace. “No.”
Fu Qingli was not only rebellious but also arrogant. When he saw that she still ignored him, he shouted, “Shen Xi!”
His voice was loud and clear.
Yun Jinping felt that it was impolite to ignore anyone and pulled her daughter to a stop. “Xixi, he’s shouting your name…”
‘Who’s that young man? He looks nice…’
“Mom, maybe it’s one of my fans…” Shen Xi explained and kept pulling Yun Jinping to leave.
Fu Qingli watched her flee and disappear. He sighed and opened the car door to get in.
‘Damn it! She actually affected me! It must be that face of hers that screwed with my head…”
Shen Xi walked a long distance away from Fu Qingli while Yun Jinping asked her who that person really was.
“Mom, I really don’t know…” Shen Xi met Yun Jinping’s skeptical gaze and conceded. “Okay, okay… He’s Fu Qingli.”
“Fu Qingli?” Yun Jinping paused for a moment. “Qingxuan’s older brother?”
Shen Xi nodded reluctantly. “Mm.”
Although he was Fu Qingxuan’s older brother, he was not at all likable. He was proud, arrogant, and brutal, a self-righteous tyrant.
“Xixi!” Yun Jinping hit her. “Why didn’t you say so earlier? How can I face Qingxuan and Qingye after this?”
Shen Xi dodged and looked at her with pitiful eyes. “You hit me because of an outsider? Am I still your baby?”
Yun Jinping pointed at her and was speechless. “You can go ahead to the supermarket and wait for me. I’ll go over and ask what’s going on. Maybe he needs help.”
The young man was Qingxuan’s older brother. Qingxuan had taken care of her daughter previously, so Yun Jinping could not neglect his older brother even though her daughter was young and clueless.
Since his car stopped by the side of the road, there must be something wrong with it.
“Mom.” Shen Xi sighed and ran over to hold her. She gave in, “Fine, I’ll go with you…”
‘Even if this big boss’ car broke down, he could get a new car in a minute. Why should commoners like us concern ourselves with him?’
Fu Qingli saw from the rearview mirror that the mother and daughter were walking toward him and looked doubtful.
‘That girl’s smart and must have known that I have a prejudice against her, so she’s holding a grudge and is giving me the same treatment.’
Yun Jinping walked over to the car window and looked at him with an apologetic smile.
Shen Xi stood behind her mother smiling perfunctorily.
Fu Qingli looked at her fake smile and felt suffocated. She really did not like him. He opened the car door and looked at Yun Jinping. “Do you need something?”
Yun Jinping smiled shyly and wanted to confirm with him. “You’re Qingxuan’s brother, right?”
Fu Qingli replied, “Yes, I’m Fu Qingxuan’s brother, Fu Qingli. Hello.”
“This is my daughter, Shen Xi. She was Qing Ye’s stylist. When she went to Vienna before the New Year, she stayed at your house.” Yun Jinping pulled Shen Xi forward. “So thank you for taking care of my daughter.”
Fu Qingli said, “You’re welcome.”
He was not made aware of this. ‘If that bastard didn’t come home for New Year’s Eve, I wouldn’t have known that these two idiots found our sister’s doppelganger behind my back!’
“Do you have a problem with your car? If you have time, come in and have a seat at my house. We live nearby.” Yun Jinping smiled gently. “My daughter’s given you a lot of trouble, so I should thank you properly.”
When Shen Xi saw her mother’s enthusiasm, she said, “Mom, Mr. Fu is a very busy man. He still has to work.”
Fu Qingli intended to refuse, but when Shen Xi stole his words and wanted him to get lost, Fu Qingli smiled and said, “Auntie, I have time.”
Shen Xi’s heart roared. ‘Get lost!’
Yun Jinping quickly nodded and agreed. She took out the house keys and gave them to Shen Xi. “Xixi, Mommy’s going to buy groceries, so you can take Mr. Fu home first.”
Shen Xi handed the keys to Fu Qingli. “You can go there by yourself first. My house number is 507. My mom can’t carry so many things, so I’ll go with her.”
Fu Qingli took the key, looked at her, and said, “I’ll come with you then.”
Since coincidence brought him to meet her twice in one day, this was fate. Fu Qingli wanted to see what was so special about this little girl that made his two brothers so happy that one of them did not even want to return home for the New Year.
Su Mushi took a while to react and instinctively replied, “How could Wanwan have a good relationship with Pei Xu?”
“I’m talking about Shen Xi!” Su Yi glared at him viciously, pointed at him, and clenched his teeth. “Get changed now and come with me to find her!”
