Chapter 383
This engagement was originally a verbal engagement so it was naturally something that couldn’t be considered official.
When Song Lie met Sheng Man, he realised that he desperately wanted to break up the unofficial engagement with Ye Zhi. In his opinion, Sheng Man was much better than Ye Zhi.
The fact that Sheng Man was the daughter of the Sheng family was already a head start for her and a huge boost for him.
But now? Ye Zhi, an orphan girl whom he had looked down on before, flew up the branches and became a real phoenix.
Not only was Sheng Man not a noble girl, her father was also seemingly the mastermind behind the abduction of the Sheng family’s real daughter and became a prisoner.
As soon as the father-daughter duo collapsed together, Song Lie’s mood inevitably fell. When he was walking on the street, he even wondered if there were people laughing at him for being blind.
If it were up to him, he would also laugh and snicker at the person who gave up the chance to wed the real Young Lady of the Sheng family for a criminal’s daughter.
Song Lie couldn’t do anything else, but he was extremely shameless. He stayed at home and pondered hard for a few days. Soon, he made a decision.
Ye Zhi didn’t have a boyfriend now anyways; all he needed to do was chase her back.
After Song Lie figured it out, he immediately lowered his need to uphold his reputation and called Ye Zhi. However, the call never reached her as he was still on Ye Zhi’s blacklist.
Song Lie called Ye Zhi’s studio again. This time, the people in the studio talked about other things and didn’t disclose any sort of information to him.
Song Lie didn’t give up and he drove directly to the area where the Sheng mansion was located. He happened to have a friend living nearby, so he made an excuse to go in and waited near the mansion.
After some time, a car approached the direction of the mansion.
From Song Lie’s point of view, he could only see that there was a man and a woman sitting in the front row of the car. The faces of the two were not very clear, but somehow, they conveyed a sense of familiarity.
Song Lie thought they were just nearby residents, but when he was about to turn his head, the car stopped.
The door of the car opened, and Ye Zhi, who Song Lie had been waiting for all day, actually got out of the car.
Song Lie was taken aback. He straightened his posture subconsciously and stared closely in her direction, only to see that Ye Zhi was not leaving in a hurry. Instead, she bent down slightly and smiled at the young man in the driver’s seat.
When facing Song Lie, Ye Zhi always looked cold, but this time, she was actually smiling ever so softly.
This just meant that the relationship between Ye Zhi and the man in the car was not at all simple.
When Song Lie was about to take a closer look, Ye Zhi closed the car door and walked towards the Sheng mansion. The car did not leave the property, much to Song Lie’s surprise, as it trailed slowly behind her.
The speed of the car was extremely slow and it only moved a short distance each time, following Ye Zhi at a moderate distance.
When the car got close, Song Lie could see the face of the man in the car. Although he had a disguise on, Song Lie recognised him at a glance.
Gu Ren.
Song Lie had many fans, but compared with Gu Ren, he was leagues behind.
