Chapter 766: 773 Post-syndrome 2_1
"Not at all..." Lin Xiangwan managed to say with a semblance of energy.
Xuexue studied her intensely, looking at her from left to right. "You claim it’s not, yet your dark circles are so evident, and you even have bags under your eyes. Also, there’s bewilderment in your eyes but your face is surprisingly flushed... Teehee, sis, my mind wanderings are going wild here, why do you look like my brother’s girlfriend?"
"Who is your brother’s girlfriend, does she look like me? Why haven’t I heard you mention this before?" Lin Xiangwan hadn’t realized what she meant and asked innocently.
"Teehee..." Xuexue’s mouth was stretched into a broad grin, almost reaching her ears. "It’s not about the appearance sis, it’s just that when my brother brought a girlfriend home, on the morning after, his girlfriend would look just like you are now..."
When realization dawned on her, Lin Xiangwan’s face turned bright red. "..."
"Sis, were you with Su... er, Big Brother yesterday evening?" Xuexue suddenly asked.
"No!" Lin Xiangwan denied it, blushing fiercely, "Don’t speculate things!"
"Really not?" Xuexue looked at her in disbelief. "Then who was it if it wasn’t Big Brother Su?"
"That’s none of your business!"
"Then it was indeed Big Brother Su, right?" Xuexue asked, her face lighting up with delight as she raised her eyebrows teasingly.
"No!" Lin Xiangwan’s face turned even redder as she quietly tried to explain it, "It was my ex-husband!"
Xuexue seemed unconvinced. "Really? Aren’t you and your ex-husband out of love?"
From what she knew about her sister, she wouldn’t be back with her ex-husband, right? After all, her ex-husband had cheated on her.
It must be Su Yueze, right? Su Yueze was unusually quiet yesterday and didn’t come over either.
"Ah..." Lin Xiangwan was aware that Xuexue wouldn’t believe her. The more she was in doubt, the more remorse Lin Xiangwan felt.
See, others wouldn’t believe that she could do such a thing.
From this, you can tell how indescribable and incomprehensible what happened yesterday was.
"Let’s stop talking about him, it’s disturbing! How are our sales in the past few days?" Lin Xiangwan asked, looking worried.
"Really good, but the growth is not that significant..." When asked about this, Xuexue also seemed troubled. "Why can’t there be a sudden surge in profits? That would be exciting, but now, the daily turnover is just around twenty thousand so it’s not that interesting!"
"Hmm, this income is within my expectations. After all, there are many small restaurants now. Growing by solely relying on this is not feasible." Lin Xiangwan recalled Qin Muchuan’s words, these kind of businesses can barely manage to survive but they can’t be relied upon for entrepreneurship.
The longer the time passed, the more she believed it was true.
"Sis, why don’t you ask your ex-husband for advice again? I believe Mr. Qin Muchuan is pretty competent. Just a few words from him can help you make money!" Xuexue said, looking up to him in admiration.
Lin Xiangwan felt a surge of resentment. She didn’t believe that without him, she couldn’t have a good life. "Why should I ask him? That guy... he’s not that reliable and his business isn’t that great either. If he really had a solution, his company wouldn’t be in crisis now!"
Angrily, she belittled him verbally, as though this would vent her resentment.
"Hehe..."
Xuexue laughed, "Sis, you’re clearly just jealous!"
"Jealous? What a joke! What would I be jealous of him for?" Lin Xiangwan scoffed. "Just what sort of woman is Zhou Ziqing? A woman who could get into bed with his father and he was willing to be with her, which just goes to show how low his IQ is. Having such a low IQ, I think his previous success in the business world was just sheer luck, like a blind cat catching a dead mouse!"
Not to mention how solid his family background is. Given the same network of relationships at that level, she could do even better.
However, she could only keep these thoughts to herself and definitely not voice them out to others.
Seeing how agitated Lin Xiangwan was, Xuexue felt even more convinced that the boss hadn’t been with her ex-husband yesterday.
The probability of her being together with Su Yueze was higher which made Xuexue feel a twinge of sadness.
But she kept reminding herself that she had no right to feel upset, there was no reason for her to be upset!
She simply had to let go of everything and avoid creating any abnormal situations.
The ringtone of an incoming call echoed, Xuexue promptly answered it. "Alright, you’re looking for Designer Lin? Oh, it’s Ms. Zhang, isn’t it? Designer Lin..."
She looked at Lin Xiangwan while she asked the caller.
The latter hastily shook her head.
Xuexue quickly relayed to the caller," I’m afraid I have to apologize, Ms. Zhang. I just checked our Designer Lin’s schedule. She’s working with a client right now. Rest assured, I will contact you as soon as she’s available. Also, there will absolutely be no other person, literally no delays in your affairs!"
After a series of reassurances, Xuexue hung up. "Sis, what’s wrong with you today? You pushed away some well-paying work, why?"
"It’s just work, right? It’s just about earning a little more or a little less. There’s no significant loss." Lin Xiangwan was still lying lazily on the table.
"Sis, why don’t you just go home and rest, there’s really no need for you to be here." Xuexue started urging her to leave.
"I don’t want to go home!" Lin Xiangwan spoke softly. Being at home would only remind her of him, which angered her. What sort of shameless man would change his mind and still have the audacity to provoke her.
"Poor thing!" Looking at Lin Xiangwan, Xuexue’s face turned bright red. "Sis, do we all appear so haggard after... that?"
"Huh?"
"I mean, after making love!" Xuexue asked again.
"No, absolutely not!" Lin Xiangwan adamantly replied. "It’s just about the person, that jerk, just a damn beast!"
As Lin Xiangwan cursed, she inadvertently felt an intense pain and her face went ashen, looking paper-like. "Ah..."
"Sis, what’s wrong with you? You’re breaking out in a sweat, what’s going on?" Xuexue asked anxiously.
"Ouch, it really hurts!" Lin Xiangwan thought that all she needed to do was rest, but the intensifying, constant pain made her incapable of not feeling the pain!
"Where does it hurt? What type of pain is it?" Xuexue was completely inexperienced in these types of situations and was utterly confused.
"I...I..." Lin Xiangwan clenched her eyes shut and suddenly fainted.
"Ah..."
Xuexue screamed in shock, and in her panic, the first reflex that came to mind was to call Su Yueze, right?
She would have to contact the boss’s boyfriend in a situation like this!
Coincidentally, Su Yueze was nearby, and he barged in less than five minutes later. "What’s the matter?"
He was asking even as he picked her up.
Xuexue answered in a fluster. "I don’t know either. My sis cursed Qin Muchuan and then suddenly fainted!"
"Ah..." Su Yueze guessed what might have happened.
