Gao Changsheng snorted dismissively, âWhatâs so surprising about such entertainment news?â
âItâs not that!â Xiaojing became anxious, looked up at Su Zixi, and said, âThe problem is, the exposé says the newcomerâs surname is Su, and the third character of their name is âxi,â and they are⦠they are also a university student!â
As soon as she finished speaking, everyoneâs gaze converged on Su Zixi!
But Su Zixiâs thoughts flashed like lightning to yesterday at the Muyun Hotel, where she encountered Su Lianxi. Lianxiâs expression had seemed so off, and while Su Zixi didnât understand why at the time, now she figured it must have had something to do with the role intended for Su Lianxi going south, making her so anxious that she even risked seducing an investorâ¦
But in doing so, where did that leave Ning Yichen?
Su Zixi suddenly stood up!
Shen Yushan hurriedly grabbed her, âDonât be angry! We all know for sure it wasnât you!â
She glared at Xiaojing, âWhat nonsense are you talking about?â
Xiaojing spoke with a sense of grievance, âIâm not suspecting our captain, and I only mentioned it so she could be prepared.â
Su Zixi waved her hand, took a deep breath and said, âIâm fine.â
She really didnât think the issue would involve her. After all, she wasnât a celebrity; why would anyone think of her without any reason?
However, did Su Lianxi really do such a thing?
What would Ning Yichen think if he knew?
Su Zixi pursed her lips, then suddenly said, âXiaojing, did the news say anything else?â
Xiaojing shook her head, âNo. But there was a rather blurry photo attached.â
Su Zixiâs eyes lit up, âLet me see.â
Xiaojing immediately handed her the phone.
The photo in the news was indeed very blurry. It only vaguely showed the womanâs full forehead and dense eyelashes. The resolution was also very low; even Su Zixi couldnât confidently assert that the woman in the photo was Su Lianxi.
But, the red knitted cardigan she wore seemed familiarâ¦
Su Zixiâs gaze was drawn to the womanâs coat, and after a long moment, she finally realized that she had a similar piece of clothing! She wore it throughout last autumn, but later took it home, not leaving it in the dorm.
If the woman in the photo really was Su Lianxi, then the cardigan was most likely her own! Su Lianxi wearing her clothes⦠was she trying to frame her?
Thatâs outrageous! Su Zixi was so angry she wanted to smash the phone!
Shen Yushan, who had been frowning at the photo, also remembered and said, âZixi, thatâs your cardigan, isnât it? Red knitted cardigans are too rare, I havenât seen anyone else wearing such an ugly sweaterâ¦â
Su Zixi gave her an annoyed look.
Hearing what Shen Yushan had said, some of the teammates became uncertain, considering the fact that Su Zixi left their dinner halfway the day before, claiming she had something to deal with, and that no one knew where she was last night. Could it really beâ¦
But Su Zixi wasnât paying any attention to her teammatesâ suspicions. She returned the phone to Xiaojing and turned to leave the conference room.
Shen Yushan hurried after her, âZixi, I absolutely believe you! And your sisterâs name also includes âxi,â right?⦠It must be her! Sheâs from the Film Academy, she certainly has the motive to do such a thing!â
Despite her quick pace, Su Zixi didnât know how she was feeling.
Her sister framing her for something? She wouldnât get upset about thatâafter all, she had experienced her sisterâs selfishness and cold-heartedness before.
What she didnât understand was, given that Su Lianxi already had Ning Yichen, why would she do such a thing, why would she betray him!
