314 The New Darling (1/2)

Lei Xinyi was a sharp woman who knew the ropes and it never ended well for people around her. If she was to assume everything and that everything was not up to her liking, she may even run away which wasn't the worst part. Who knows how he would find her this time around.

She had too many enemies to walk in the open sky…

He wanted to address the easier questions first because if she wasn't getting anything she wouldn't stop pestering him or may even go around investigating.

Su Qianwei…

Yes, he was angry at her but it all ended some days of not knowing where she was. He cared about her and her security was a concern, he had sent his people to search her but she wasn't seen after the night she came to his place to...

Her being Lei Xinyi's cousin and a Lei's heir, if only made him more concerned about her safety.

For a moment his eyes sharpened thinking of how Lei Xinyi had collaborated with her to fool him. They were efff*ng playing around with him, throwing him at each other like volleyball.

And now that he thought about it, the little Raven already knew about her feelings for him. Those days she wasn't having jealousy streaks against Su Qianwei, she knew what was cooking for sure!

Lei Xinyi gave him a sheepish smile avoiding his eyes awkwardly catching onto what he was thinking.

He cleared his throat and frowned at her questions, ”The earlier ones are quite random. Oppose to what you believe, I really didn't have a grand meeting with Su Qianwei.

It was on one of the Christmas Events that she served me cake bragging about how tasty it was and would do the same every year. Slowly she just warmed it up for herself. She was too young and her trying to be genuine in her advertisement was too cute.” He fondly spoke of that witch, looking in a distance with a smile, like playing it all in his head.

She listened to him with a soft smile when she wanted to rip his eyes out which were gleaming in that witch's memory.

She wouldn't say it out loud but she was jealous of how they went way back to the roots!

His smile widened and he looked about ready to spew some sugary sweet bullsh*t about the b*tch when she had enough and cut him off, ”Your Father?”

His smile faltered before he smirked bitterly at the memory, ”My mother has a good life as a widow that's for sure and I have a good life being what I am. The man had messed up a lot with the company and Underworld which proved for my ascendance to be hard.”

She noticed how he spoke of his father like there wasn't even supposed to be feeling like it was too platonic to be sentimental.
