Chapter 0006 – Uncovering His False Veil (1 / 2)

Lin’s Group, the premier infrastructure company in F City, had a long-term business partnership with the real estate company, Inkling Group.

Faced with Lin Qing’s self-introduction, Jiang Xia replied without any confidence.

“My name is…Jiang Xia, hobo.”

Lin Qing responded with a calm smile, but Jiang Xia was unable to remain calm.

Shit… She didn’t think she’d run into her target right here.

Is that luck?

Moreover, Lin Qing’s image was too different from what she had imagined, she never expected Lin Qing to be such a weak scholar.

The good news is that the hanging heart is finally put down, looking at the table full of normally unattainable gourmet feast, Jiang Xia’s mind only left two words – dry rice! Drop all the racks and feast!

Jiang Xia ate while listening to Lin Qing.

He just graduated from college, only twenty-three years old this year, studied software engineering, and just graduated into a big network factory.

“The future is bright.” Jiang Xia sighed as she kept stuffing her mouth with onion-braised chicken skewers, the stuff was almost making her dizzy with the aroma.

But in Lin Qing’s eyes, such a day was too dull until Tang Ei appeared in his life.

Lin Qing is the standard child of other people’s families. He grew up with excellent grades, listened to his parents and teachers, and was admitted to the ideal high school and university without any problems.

So when Tang Ei, who was a few years older than him, took the initiative to enter his life, it brought Lin Qing much surprise.

“We met online, she works as a secretary in a private company, initially asking questions related to computers, and after meeting offline a few times, we slowly became cross friends, which in turn developed into a relationship of lovers.”

In Lin Qing’s eyes, Tang Ei is a gentle big sister, he is an only child, brought up by a nanny, Tang Ei has brought him care and attention that he has never experienced.

Under her fierce attack, Lin Qing was completely overwhelmed and quickly sank into Tang Ei’s tenderness.

“Are you sure… she’s not after your fortune?” Jiang Xia swallowed a large piece of salmon sashimi and analyzed.

“I suspected it before, but I’ve never disclosed my family background to her, and most of my daily expenses on weekdays are paid for by Sister Tang Ei, and she’s invited me to her family’s villa – Sister Tang Ei doesn’t seem like someone who lacks money.”

Sister Tang Ei said that she likes younger than herself and loves my talent and all that…

The more Jiang Xia listens, the more he thinks it is unfair, rich second generation + smooth career path + being adopted by a rich woman, when will such a good thing fall on me ah!

But…everything changed after that accident.

Lin Qing’s eyes became dull.

It was perfectly normal for lovers to have a date on Christmas Eve, and it was Tang Ei who took the initiative to propose; Lin Qing had also made up his mind to propose after thinking for a long time, and he had laid out enough surprises, but for some reason, as the date loomed closer, Sister Tang Ei became busier and busier, and often didn’t respond to his messages.

“You can’t detect if she’s cold or not?” Jiang Xia swallowed a large mouthful of roasted meat.

“This is obviously a fishing expedition!”

“How could that be, Sister Tang Ei must be really busy… “Lin Qing’s simplicity even made Jiang Xia feel a bit pitiful.

By the end of the day Tang Ei never responded, and even when Lin Qing called, it showed that the other party was on the phone.

“The place where I proposed was this Yakitori.”

Just as Lin Qing was getting anxious, Tang Ei suddenly sent him a message.

“Let’s call it a day, after that we’ll be on two diametrically opposed life trajectories, good riddance.”

Lin Qing couldn’t wait for her, so he went to look around near Wanxiang Plaza, and was finding his way near that convenience store when the attendant at the Yakitori store informed him that there was a serious traffic accident at the intersection.

In the dark, Lin Qing felt that Tang Ei must have met an untimely end, and that was why he was so disoriented that he rushed towards the intersection and accidentally collided with Jiang Xia.

“But for better or worse, I didn’t find her.”

Lin Qing identified every body, and Tang Ei wasn’t among them.

“I was told there was only one survivor of the accident, and I was going to contact him to ask for leads, but I could never find any information on that survivor.”

Since then, Lin Qing couldn’t contact Tang Ei, and she just evaporated.

Jiang Xia had already eaten her fill, and she began to analyze along with Lin Qing’s thoughts.

“I just think there is a little bit very strange, according to what you said you know at least more than two years, so long both parents should have met it, even if she disappeared out of thin air, you should be able to contact her family right, if all play disappeared then – it will not be a joint effort to cheat you right. “

Jiang Xia said and then waved his hand again and again.

“Of course I’m making empty promises, just random speculations, and I would have appreciated you treating me to such a feast today.”

“It’s okay.” Lin Qing suddenly held Jiang Xia’s hand.

“I’m the one who should be saying thank you, you look so much like her, that’s why I recognized the wrong person and forgot to say so much. Like you, she also has a straight nose, charming eyes and a tear mole at the corner of her eye, it’s practically carved from the same mold!”

“Yes, since childhood, my mother has been counting down my pointed chin and thin lips, what fire type pointed face, born to steal men’s material, I did not expect that this look has been praised one day.”

Jiang Xia held onto the wall and walked out of the yakitori store, stretching towards the road – she had eaten too much.

It was after 9:00 p.m. It was time to go home.

“This date with Sister Tang Ei has always been a regret in my heart, and now that you’ve helped me realize it, I really can’t thank you enough.”

Lin Qing said as he pulled out his car key and pressed it, and the lights of a luxurious convertible sports car in front of the Yakitori store flashed in response.

“Want to go for a ride? As compensation.”

“This…how can it be good?” Jiang Xia’s mouth excused himself, but his body was already very honest as he sat in the co-pilot’s seat and fastened his seatbelt.

With the roar of the engine, the sports car sped along the bypass highway.

“Wooha!” Jiang Xia, riding in a car of this class for the first time in his life, excitedly raised his arms.

“How much does this car cost!”

“I don’t know! But it seems like it’s the only one in all of F City!”

“You know what! That’s how we drove around on the highway after my first date with Sister Tang Ei!!!”

“Wow! That’s so romantic!”

Perhaps the scene evoked Lin Qing’s memories, and he began to obliviously recount his past with Tang Ei, and because the wind was so loud, Jiang Xia also listened to one sentence at a time.

“…So, we really are a match made in heaven! The heavens are really unfair, stripping Sister Tang Ei from my side, do you think that Sister Tang Ei will come back again?”

Already off the highway, Lin Qing stopped the car on a section of tree-lined path and suddenly turned to Jiang Xia and asked.

Lin Qing had just drank a lot of sake during dinner, and looking at his drunken eyes, Jiang Xia suddenly realized that he was not in a very safe place right now.

“Jiang Xia, you and Sister Tang Ei are really too much alike, in fact, it’s not impossible for you to replace Sister Tang Ei…”

“No no no! You’ve had too much to drink,” Jiang Xia subconsciously pushed Lin Qing away.

He froze for a moment and then seemed to sober up a bit, scratching his head in embarrassment and apologizing.

“I’m sorry…I just got so caught up in the moment…I just miss her so much…ever since she left, I feel like the world’s gone bleak too…”

While it’s a bit out of place to tell it at this point, and you’re telling the story vicariously, there’s a lot of it that you’re making up, isn’t there?

Jiang Xia suddenly collected his excitement and said coldly.

Under Lin Qing’s stunned gaze, Jiang Xia took out that red diary.
