Chapter 562: Chapter 562: A Friend Called Chi Enen
But she had never considered changing her way of speaking or her temper; she was fortunate in this life and destined to stand at the top of upper-class society, so why shouldn’t she do as she pleased? After all, she had the support of her family; she didn’t need to please anyone.
Yet, this man, ti after ti, drove her crazy, ti after ti, left her at a loss for what to do. She began to doubt whether she really needed to change her personality. If she was so great, why didn’t this man like her, why did he always avoid her!
Kim Zhiyuan glared at him and asked the last possibility, “Or is it that you already have soone you like?”
“Boss, your drink.” A subordinate replaced the old goblet with a new one on the table and sneaked a glance at Kim Zhiyuan.
With just a look, Kim Zhiyuan sent him scurrying away; he quickly averted his gaze and retreated to the side.
Han Qifeng’s actions, also under Xi Zelie’s control, paused for a mont as if lost in thought. But he quickly reverted to his original deanor, still using the once comfortable tone that now seed to offer a distinctly different feeling— the forr was purely comfortable, the latter was so soothing that it made one want to shoot him, “I don’t like you.”
Without changing her expression, Kim Zhiyuan ground her teeth and forced out a sentence, “I know! Anyone with eyes can see that you don’t like ! It’s your problem that you don’t like ; that’s fine with ! I’m just asking you whether there’s any woman by your side more suitable for you than ?”
For heirs like them, suitability was more important than affection.
“There is one.”
“Who?” Kim Zhiyuan pressed.
Xi Zelie gave her a dismissive glance, “That has nothing to do with you.”
Once again, Kim Zhiyuan experienced a sense of helplessness because of him. Her beautiful almond eyes shimred with persistent pride, “I won’t give up. I’ve persisted for so long; I won’t give up until the last mont. You may have soone you like but aren’t married yet, and even if you are, you can get a divorce. As long as you’re not dead, I still have a chance.”
Xi Zelie lifted his head and replied casually, “Suit yourself.”
With that, he continued flipping through the accounting book in his hands.
If she was free to suit herself, then suit herself she would. A determined woman is not afraid of a persistent man; Kim Zhiyuan didn’t believe she couldn’t win him over! Having resolved her mind, she returned to being the graceful heiress of a wealthy family and suddenly recalled the phone call she had just received from Li Beijue. She placed her hand on the accounting book the man was looking at, interrupting his work, “Hey, a friend’s cousin got into so trouble. Can you do a favor and tell your subordinates to let her go?”
“What happened?”
“It’s about your Big Brother’s mole who’s being kept here. Doesn’t he have a young girlfriend? That woman is my friend’s cousin.” Kim Zhiyuan was well aware of the Xize family’s internal politics and paused, frowning, “You can take care of the mole, but dealing with his girlfriend won’t affect you much…”
“I rember that person’s girlfriend is from Rainy City, when did you have friends from Rainy City?” Xi Zelie’s gentle Peach Blossom Eyes swept over her.
“Who says I haven’t? I’ve been in Rainy City for several days. I t soone. She has a nice personality, nad Chi Enen.”
No sooner had she finished speaking than the man in front of her suddenly narrowed his eyes, gentle yet sharp, he repeated, “What did you say your friend’s na is?”
“Chi Enen.” Kim Zhiyuan was surprised, “Why, you know her too?”
mories flashed through his mind like a movie, and the corners of his lips tightened; he did not respond. He still rembered the last ti they had talked in the Hospital; was she also in Country Y? With whom? With Li Beijue?
“I’ll have soone release your friend’s cousin in a while.” He didn’t answer Kim Zhiyuan’s question, stood up, “I have other matters to attend to, and can’t keep you company any longer. Please feel free to stay.”
“Hey!” Kim Zhiyuan wanted to follow, but she was stopped by two subordinates. Stamping her foot in anger, she could only watch helplessly as the man’s figure disappeared down that luxuriously shining corridor—
