Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 755 - 672: Suspicious Appearance
Li Si grabbed her arm and whispered, "Don’t act like this! Sit up quickly! Don’t you see everyone around is watching?" She glanced at the couples at the surrounding tables; they were all curiously sneaking glances over here.
Bai Shasha leaned on the table with her elbow instead, blinking pitifully, "Si, let’s just stay here for a little longer. I don’t want to go home!
I even took time off work today. There’s no way I’d be in the mood to go back to work right now!"
She wished time could rewind so she wouldn’t have gone through the trouble of this entire half-day.
Li Sian comforted her, "Fine! We’ll do whatever you want!" After saying that, he thought of her parents. "It’s lucky you didn’t call your mom and dad—otherwise, your mom would probably have flown over here to see you immediately!"
When Bai Shasha thought of her mom, a chill ran down her back, and she tensed up. "Spot on!"
She could already imagine how her mom would nag her endlessly if she found out it was all a misunderstanding.
Bai Shasha wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination or if the ice cream she’d eaten earlier was too cold, but her stomach started feeling off.
Suddenly, a sharp, twisting pain hit her gut. She grabbed her stomach and cried out, "Ouch! Si, my stomach hurts a bit! Could you watch our bags for a moment while I run to the restroom?"
Li Si stood up in concern. "Are you okay? Do you need me to come with you?"
Bai Shasha quickly bent over and waved her hand. "No need! I’ll be right back!"
Li Si watched her retreating figure with worry and sighed softly.
It had to be the cold food that upset her stomach!
Forget about Bai Shasha—she herself felt a little out of sorts too.
But thinking about how the two had only recently gotten married and how there might be more changes soon, she let it go.
Just then, she received a message on her phone. When she opened it, it was from Jiang Tong, who was sitting not far from them:
"Madam! There’s a suspicious man sitting near the window by the entrance!"
Bai Shasha briskly covered the distance to the restroom in just a few long strides. When she had entered earlier, she’d noticed the restroom was tucked in the western corner.
As she passed one of the tables, she caught someone out of the corner of her eye acting a bit sketchy.
When she focused her gaze, Yin Xian was covering his face with his hand, making him look even more suspicious.
"Yin Xian?!"
Yin Xian realized he’d been spotted and had no choice but to awkwardly lower his hand. "Bai Shasha! What a coincidence!"
Bai Shasha let out a mocking laugh. "Yeah, what a coincidence!"
She had already heard from Li Si about Yin Xian’s relationship with Leng Mo. She thought to herself how unpredictable and tangled these rich families’ affairs were.
Yin Xian didn’t seem worried about Ye Duowei finding out. Did he ever consider the potential consequences of dating Li Si’s sister-in-law? Wouldn’t it be awkward for everyone?
Determined to marry into Li Si’s family, Yin Xian’s boldness left her speechless.
But now wasn’t the time to talk—her stomach was killing her.
After throwing that line at him, she strode past Yin Xian and headed for the restroom.
Meanwhile, Li Si—who had received Jiang Tong’s tip—saw Yin Xian standing up in the distance.
She remembered that Leng Mo’s hospital was nearby and immediately understood.
She’d heard that Leng Mo and Yin Xian had broken up, so was he here trying to win her back?
What an incredible coincidence, for her and Shasha to also end up here.
This kind of encounter was more awkward than she could have imagined.
Yin Xian noticed that Li Si had seen him. He smiled bitterly and walked over.
"Hey! Li Si, I didn’t expect to run into you here!"
Li Si stayed seated, simply tilting her head up to look at him from across the table. She said coolly, "Yeah. Didn’t expect to meet you either."
If there was anyone she hoped not to bump into right now—besides the Tian Family—it would be this man standing before her.
He knew perfectly well about Ye Duowei and the Tian Family’s complicated relationships with her, yet he still went to provoke Leng Mo.
Whether it was out of genuine feelings, ulterior motives, or a secret agreement with Zeng Qiuping, his actions had caused her trouble and frustration.
And what Zeng Qiuping had told Mrs. Leng—that she’d dated Yin Xian—made her utterly disgusted.
Looking back, she didn’t feel like they had ever been in a "relationship."
If there were even the tiniest bit of flirtation at the beginning, everything was obliterated after Leng Mochen entered her life.
Most of the time, she’d ended up being the one people unfairly accused. Whether it was Yin Qi or Ye Duowei, they all thought something had happened between her and Yin Xian.
The mere notion of this romantic entanglement made her feel nauseated and deeply uncomfortable!
Yin Xian coughed lightly to cover his awkwardness and the turmoil in his heart. "Li Si, I want to apologize to you. For everything in the past and even now, I know my actions have bothered you.
Honestly, I never intended to hurt you, but things kept turning out this way..."
Li Si snorted coldly and cut him off with a harsh gesture. "Yin Xian! Please stop saying things that could be misinterpreted by others! We’re not that close! I don’t even think you owe me an apology.
If you really did date my sister-in-law Leng Mo, then let’s see if you end up part of the family."
She wasn’t naive—she knew Zeng Qiuping’s divorce meant Leng Mo would never get involved with Yin Xian again, no matter the reason.
Maybe Yin Xian truly was innocent in some aspects of this whole situation, but he was still the spark that ignited it all.
If he hadn’t appeared or gotten involved, maybe none of this mess would have happened.
The disdain and mockery in Li Si’s eyes pierced Yin Xian deeply. He never thought he’d see the day when the once pure and sweet girl in his memories would treat him so icily.
He couldn’t tell when exactly Li Si had started avoiding and resenting him.
The truth was, he had done too much to drive her away.
"Li Si, do we really have to talk like this? Yes, maybe I made mistakes in my relationship with Leng Mo.
But have you forgotten we used to be friends? I still remember how happy we were at the ski resort together. If it weren’t for Ye Duowei, maybe we..."
Li Si abruptly stood up and snapped, "Enough! Yin Xian! Even without Ye Duowei, there would have never been an ’us’!
Oh, and don’t make it sound like that ski trip was just the two of us. Yin Qi and Beibei were there as well!"
She couldn’t take it anymore. Why was Yin Xian acting like this today?
Yin Xian clenched his fists. "Fine! I guess I’m just embarrassing myself."
He couldn’t even explain why. Seeing Li Si’s expression stirred something in him and made him want to pour out everything he’d kept bottled up for so long.
Yin Xian turned, his demeanor filled with desolation, and started to head back to his seat. Just then, Leng Mo walked in with an indifferent expression. She immediately caught sight of Yin Xian and Li Si.
Leng Mo cast a calm glance at Yin Xian and then at Li Si, whose face was flushed with anger, before walking toward them.
Li Si was slightly stunned to see Leng Mo. This was their first time meeting recently.
The night Mr. Leng Sr. had fallen ill, she and Leng Ning had left early, so she hadn’t seen Leng Mo, who had arrived later.
"Second Sister-in-law! You’re here too!" Leng Mo greeted her first.
Li Si felt as though she couldn’t get out from under the weight of accusation. Leng Mo’s gaze—though clear—carried a subtle hint that made it seem as though there really *was* something between her and Yin Xian.
Damn Bai Shasha! Of all times to run off, she had to pick this moment to have stomach issues.
