Chapter 557 - Venomous snake (1/2)

Ruoxi looked through the photos. ”It's indeed strange. Why would someone do such a thing? Unless she is trying to replace Meili?”

Lin Lihua chuckled. ”As if anyone can replace her. No one knows how much she has been through to get to this level. Why would they want to ruin all her hard work?”

She took back those photos. ”The most weird thing is that Small Xixi was the only one who saw Meili's costume, and it was copied too.”

Ruoxi frowned. ”She was bugged too?”

”I don't think anyone would be that idle. How would they know that Small Xixi would see Meili's costume?”

Lin Lihua took another sip of her terribly bitter coffee. ”But if I remember correctly, Small Xixi would never leave Southside Villas without saying hi to our family and Lu Shaoting's.”

Ruoxi jolted. ”That's right! Perhaps she mentioned Meili's dress in passing and someone who didn't want her to pass her audition gave the information to Annie Lan. Who could it be? Lu Shihan? Lu Shichen? That's rather impossible. Why would boys do that?”

Lu Shihan and Lu Shichen were Lu Shaoting's twin sons. They were only two months younger than Lu Xian Li because the latter was born premature.

Aside from the fact that they were Su Ling's only children, there was nothing interesting about them.

Presently, Lin Lihua definitely understood what Ruoxi was driving at. Coincidentally, Katy Blanc had just returned from Le Blanc Group and arrived at that moment.

”Katy, come here.” Lin Lihua called before she got past them.

Katy wasn't too happy about being called by Lin Lihua in Ruoxi's presence. It obviously spelt trouble. But, she still went over. ”Mother, is there anything I can do for you?”

Lin Lihua ignored this ”mother” address. She had long decided to turn a deaf ear to it. ”Small Xixi was here last night.”

”And?”

”What did you guys talk about?”

Katy shrugged. ”Nothing particulary. I'm too old to hold a discussion with a 21 year old.” What would they talk about, stuffed toys and first crushes?

Ruoxi interjected. ”But I overheard…”

”What?” both Lin Lihua and Katy asked.

”Nothing…” Ruoxi held a hand over her mouth.

Katy smiled bitterly. This Ruoxi was messing with her yet again. Hadn't she had enough? ”If there's nothing else, I will go to sleep. I had a terribly long day today.”

When Katy left, Lin Lihua looked at Ruoxi. ”Just now…”

The girl hurriedly took Lin Lihua's hand. Those who didn't know would think she was distracting Lin Lihua to help Katy out. But in real sense, she was letting Lin Lihua know that there was something to hide. ”Mother, do you remember Doherty? He used to visit us in school when we were kids.”

”What about him?”
