At this point, there’s nothing to do but watch and wait! 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
Li Si glanced at Jiang Tong and the others not far away, giving them a hint.
Bai Shasha’s situation is special, and Li Si cannot let her innocently follow and take risks.
So, the most important thing right now is to transfer Bai Shasha to a safe place as much as possible.
That way, she can be free of worries.
Jiang Tong, who has been closely watching this place, was already on alert at the first moment. Now, seeing Li Si’s hint, he quickly nodded and then took out his phone to send a text message under the table.
On the surface, Li Si told Bai Shasha that Qin He and Wang Ruotong across from them could hear some whispers, but secretly she told her to find a chance to leave later, as someone would escort her to a safe place.
Bai Shasha was initially reluctant, how could she be at ease allowing Li Si to take risks alone?
But under Li Si’s stern gaze, she understood deeply that she is no longer like before, and the baby in her belly cannot afford any mistakes.
Moreover, even if she stays here, she could likely become a burden to Li Si.
So she gritted her teeth and agreed reluctantly!
Wang Ruotong saw Li Si and Bai Shasha being very aloof, intimately whispering and laughing without bothering with them.
She hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Li Si, do you remember the time we met in Hong Kong? Actually, I went there with my mom to attend a family member of Sister He’s wedding banquet!
I really didn’t expect Sister He would want to meet you! If I’d known earlier, I would’ve introduced you guys to each other already!"
"Is that so! I really didn’t expect it! You sure have a lot of relatives! Wang Ruotong, you’ve changed so much, I almost don’t recognize you anymore!"
Wang Ruotong heard the insinuation in Li Si’s words, her face flushed, instantly thinking of her aunt and others, and the things she was doing at the moment.
Yet, she felt she hadn’t done anything to wrong Li Si, merely introducing her to Sister He!
Moreover, Li Si’s husband was being ambiguous with another woman, knowing this in advance and preparing defenses isn’t bad, is it? She was doing this for Li Si’s own good!
Thinking these thoughts, Wang Ruotong suddenly became calm, she smiled at Li Si: "Everyone has to grow up, right? Li Si, you have changed a lot too! I remember when we were kids, we were inseparable little pals! Back then, you often came to my house to do homework and had dinner!
The difference between the you then and the present you is immense! But it’s understandable, as your identity and status change, people naturally change too! I can understand that!"
Li Si smiled noncommittally, she watched Wang Ruotong speak to herself, secretly disappointed.
Although Wang Ruotong’s mom was somewhat scheming and calculating, Wang Ruotong had always been a symbol of straightforwardness in her heart.
In Beijing, she and Qin He would inevitably meet one day, but had not expected it to be Wang Ruotong who made the connection.
"Understanding is a good thing! Wang Ruotong, you know, I remember childhood things more clearly than you! Back then, before you were called Wang Ruotong, you were that cheerful, adorable little girl Wang Chuang!
But once the name changes, fate, character, and interactions all change too. I understand! You’re right; everyone has to grow up eventually!"
Wang Ruotong’s face showed stiffness; how could she not detect the sarcasm in Li Si’s words?
But she couldn’t understand why introducing Li Si to Sister He seemed like she had committed an unforgiving crime to Li Si.
Just as she was about to say something, Qin He, who had been silently listening with a smile, lightly touched her waist.
So she didn’t follow up, and Qin He smiled: "I didn’t realize you two were such good friends as children! I’m really envious!
Looking at myself, it seems I’ve failed somewhat! Always been alone since childhood! Girls my age kept their distance! Luckily, our family found my sister last year, relieving my regrets!"
Li Si’s eyes shifted, a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth; the sister Qin He mentioned must be the renamed Qin Xin!
It seems Qin He’s agenda today differs slightly from what Li Si originally guessed!
Wang Ruotong couldn’t help but pout, defending Qin He: "Sister He! You’re something! A woman who suddenly appeared, you treat her like a sister. Does she treat you as an elder sister? Like when we went to the Zheng Family wedding, she..."
Qin He raised an eyebrow and lightly rebuked: "Tongtong! Don’t talk like that anymore!"
Wang Ruotong felt she misspoke, glanced at Li Si, and quickly lowered her head.
Li Si and Bai Shasha exchanged glances, seeing amusement in each other’s eyes.
Afterwards, the group chatted plainly, Wang Ruotong was quietly nudged by Qin He and reacted with a smile: "You all keep chatting; I’m heading to the restroom!"
She stood up and looked at Bai Shasha: "Anyone need to go? Let’s go together!"
Bai Shasha’s eyes flickered, seeing Li Si lightly nod at her, stood up naturally: "I’ll go with you!"
She knew the Sijia’s bodyguards were seated not far away, so she wasn’t too worried about her safety.
Especially now that she received Li Si’s hint, she realized Qin He came prepared today, and talking was inevitable.
What she could do now was seize the chance to leave and not cause trouble for Li Si.
After the two left their seats, Qin He’s eyes flashed with a gentle smile: "Li Si! Pleased to meet you! Honestly, I’ve heard of you from others long before today!
Our meeting today exceeds my expectations! You’re quite impressive!"
Li Si looked at her indifferently, her eyes calm and dark: "Really? As they say, let’s not speak in riddles. If you’re calling yourself Qin He, then the flower basket and invitation I received at the store celebration were from you? If you have something to say, be direct; why beat around the bush?"
Qin He clearly didn’t expect Li Si to be so blunt; she smiled frankly: "Since you’re straightforward, I won’t circle around! Actually, I wanted to meet you to inform you of something!"
"Oh! What is it?" Her exterior showing no emotion, Li Si internally speculated on what Qin He might say or what motives she held.
Qin He appeared hesitant, took a deep breath, and spoke softly: "The sister I mentioned earlier, who unexpectedly appeared, I inadvertently discovered she might have something going on with Mr. Leng...I’m sorry, maybe my guess was mistaken. I hope it doesn’t cause you trouble..."
After she spoke, she watched Li Si’s expression closely, seeing her unchanged serenity and was slightly shocked inside, forming immediate suspicions.
Li Si’s demeanor perhaps indicated one of two things: she knew or she didn’t care!
How is that possible? What woman could tolerate such things?
Li Si laughed mockingly: "Is speaking half a sentence a habit of Miss Qin? The sister you’re referring to is Qin Qiu, right? What a coincidence; at the Zheng Family wedding the other day, I happened to meet her! Oh, and your grandfather too! Fabricating rumors in front of me without understanding the situation—does someone taught this even cause such drama?"
