Chapter 120 - Engagement (2) (1/2)

Xi Jiaying was searching for the man, even though she doesn't know his name, she was sure that he will help her truly.

She was rushing in the corridor, bumping into several people in a state of panicking daze and was constantly uttering a single word to everyone, ”SORRY”. She was now getting irritated on herself. She thought to herself as she always does to make herself known about her wrongdoings, 'How can I panic so much. I know I have heard something very dreadful for my heart, a murder plan and that too of my brother-in-law but still the plan hasn't been executed yet. It can be ruined properly if dealt with it on time'.

In that process, she again bumped into someone and her head almost got smashed, ”Ahh!”, she exclaimed and at the same time another person's painful exclamation alsk sounded, ”Ahhh! I am really sorry, if...”.

Xi Jiaying rubbed her head and looked at the person who has also fallen on the floor rubbing her head to ease the pain. She was none other than Lifen, about whom Jie has informed her but she didn't knew. Its the first time today that the other party with whom she has bumped also apologized to her in return. There is nothing in apologising in these types of small stuffs as it only shows your level of mannerisms.

The girl really looked like a doll, so pure and clean. It was the first impression she got from her face. And with their small exchange of words, she can tell that she held politeness as the priority. Overall she was quite cute, lovely but beautiful girl inside out. Xi Jiaying has always been like this, she always tries to perceive one from their first impression and first encounter.

”It's okay, dear. It was my fault in the the first place to not see you coming. You aren't hurt”, she said frankly.

Lifen gently shook her head, ”No I am fine, but previously you were telling something about mur...der, what is it and whose death is being planned”.

When she bumped into her, she just heard the last part of her murmuring. She has heard her mention the name Deming and then something about murder. But still she wants to confirm it.

Xi Jiaying squinted her eyes to examine her quietly for few seconds, while they were still sitting on the floor.

After confirm that she was really a bit concerned, she asked ”Who are you? And why you look so concern? Do you know my brother-in-law in some way?”.

Lifen's heart trembled a little, so she had heard right before. Someone was planning a murder of Deming. But why and who? She paused for a minute and then tried to answer calmly, though her voice was still trembling, ”Yeah I know him. I am his friend and also his former personal assistant”.

Hearing her words, Jiaying blankly blinked at her. Was she wrong at judging her? No, she has nothing in her which Jie mentioned earlier. Then why ?
