Chapter 2006: Chapter 2007: Jiang Nuan vs Fu Yi 9
Jiang Nuan came out just in time to bump into Xu Qingrong rushing over.
Xu Qingrong saw her, pursed her red lips, and rudely blocked her, "Where is Fu Yi?"
Jiang Nuan stopped and looked at her. Her gaze held indifference and sympathy, but not the sharp confrontation Xu Qingrong imagined.
But Jiang Nuan’s calm demeanor made Xu Qingrong feel even more uncomfortable than if she were confronting her directly!
"Why are you looking at me like that? I’m asking you where Fu Yi is. He went out shortly after you did. Don’t tell me you didn’t see him!"
Jiang Nuan raised her eyebrows and leisurely asked her, "Is Doctor Xu questioning me?"
Xu Qingrong’s throat choked, her eyes evasive, angrily saying, "If you don’t want to tell me, forget it. I’ll find him myself!"
Seeing her about to leave, Jiang Nuan suddenly called out to her, "Wait a minute."
"What!"
Xu Qingrong deeply disliked her, not only for overshadowing her at first but also for a subtle, inexplicable sense of crisis later. Her woman’s intuition told her to be wary of this woman in front of her.
Jiang Nuan didn’t mind her unfriendly attitude. She pointed kindly, giving directions, "The person you’re looking for is in there."
Xu Qingrong looked in the direction she pointed.
She immediately saw the women’s restroom.
Her brows furrowed, seeming not to believe, "You said Fu Yi is in the women’s restroom?"
"Impossible!" she denied without even thinking.
Jiang Nuan was only kindly giving directions and wasn’t responsible for making her believe, "I’ve already told you where he is. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I’m leaving now."
Xu Qingrong’s expression turned hesitant. After she turned around, she called out to ask, "Where are you going?"
"Back to the hotel."
Jiang Nuan waved her hand freely, walking briskly away without looking back!
...
After Jiang Nuan turned a corner out of sight, Xu Qingrong came back to her senses, hesitating for a moment before biting her lip and walking into the women’s restroom.
Logically, she felt Jiang Nuan was playing a prank on her, and it was impossible for Fu Yi to be inside.
But emotionally, she couldn’t help but walk in.
As soon as she went in, she exclaimed in surprise, "Fu Yi?"
The man standing absentmindedly by the sink was indeed the person she was looking for.
She quickly walked over, a hint of blush appeared on her delicate face. She looked up at the man in front of her, her eyes rippling with waves of emotion, indicating she was quite moved, "Why... why did you come in here?"
This is the women’s restroom, after all.
After asking this, the image of the woman she had just bumped into flashed in her mind again. Her heart filled with girlish enthusiasm seemed to be doused with a bucket of cold water, cooling it by half.
Looking at Fu Yi again, she became awkward, her eyes wandering, biting her lip and asking, "Did you come in looking for Doctor Jiang? Do you know Doctor Jiang?"
She didn’t deny that Jiang Nuan was attractive, but it was only just attractive—far from terms like breathtaking or stunningly beautiful.
She had known this man for many years and was well aware that he didn’t just look at appearances. His status and position meant he was never short of beautiful women throwing themselves at him, but there were rarely any scandalous rumors about him in high society.
In fact, among the top eligible bachelors in Capital City, Fu Yi and Shen Yu were the ones occasionally linked with small-time internet celebrities or models, while Li Shengxiao, Zhong Yuye, and Fu Yi almost never had rumors.
These three men were also the most sought after by the socialites and heiresses in high society!
She was no exception.
Li Shengxiao was already married, the Zhong Family was fraught with internal conflicts, and Zhong Yuye personally gave off an overly gloomy and rebellious impression.
