Su Yang was skeptical about what Su Qian said, but she could hardly ignore the impact of those words.
After all, it was a fact that Su Qian was with Xu Lize's fourth uncle. Moreover, the things she said were not any business secrets. It was not strange at all that Xu Wenfeng would tell her.
As for Xu Lize's selling of the equity, as long as someone was willing to find out, they would surely be able to figure out the truth. Besides, if he really opened a venture - capital company in Nanshi, one could immediately find out about it by using the enterprise - query software on the computer.
Moreover, if it weren't for Xu Wenfeng telling Su Qian, Su Yang didn't think Su Qian would have known about their trip to Paris.
But why was it Paris specifically? The Paris that left her those memories that seemed both beautiful and unreal?
"So what you mean is that there's no such thing as the equity anymore. Anyway, the 10% equity that Xu Lize wanted has been cashed out to fund his own company. So the so - called 'no divorce for ten years' has become just a piece of waste paper?"
Actually, Su Yang wasn't really interested in these things. What she cared about was something else.
"Of course it's not just waste paper. You can sue him!" Su Qian's attitude became obviously haughty. "Make him return the 10% equity to you. If he can't, make him pay you in cash."
As she said this, she shook her head, looking quite pained. "My dear sister, if you don't sue him, you'll probably end up losing both your dignity and your fortune."
"Why?" Su Yang resisted the urge to turn around and leave. She suddenly wanted to hear what Su Qian would say next.
"I don't know if you've ever heard of a woman named Ren Sijia."
As Su Qian's voice faded, a cold laugh from Su Yang echoed in the empty restroom.
"Judging from your expression, you do know her?" Su Qian clicked her tongue. "Do you know who Ren Sijia is?"
"Xu Lize's first love?"
Su Yang was just guessing, but she didn't expect her guess to be so accurate.
"To be honest, I'm not very clear about their relationship, but I can get the general idea. Ren Sijia and Xu Lize grew up together. The two families have a good relationship. When the Ren family's business failed a few years ago, it was Xu Lize who asked his fourth uncle for help. His fourth uncle stepped in, and the Ren family's business was saved. So his fourth uncle has a deep impression of Ren Sijia. Because of this, Ren Sijia almost recognized Xu Lize's mother as her god - mother. In the end, it didn't happen because Xu's mother always wanted Ren Sijia to be her daughter - in - law."
"Since their relationship was so good, why didn't they get married?" Su Yang smiled.
She suddenly thought that all love stories were so clichéd and similar, as if they were carved from the same template, just to produce a flower that left people feeling melancholy and regretful, making the memory unforgettable.
Su Qian gave her a strange look, shook her head and said, "I don't know. All I know is that when I first met Xu Lize, there were rumors in the circle that there was always a woman in his heart. That's why he didn't date or get married until his thirties and became a diamond bachelor."
As she said this, Su Qian reached out and pushed Su Yang, asking her to take a step back. Then she squinted at her from side to side, sighed and said, "Do you know how surprised everyone was when they found out you were Mrs. Xu at the banquet just now? Many people said that from a distance, you really looked a bit like Ren Sijia. Also, is this dress you're wearing from Brand B?"
Su Yang was taken aback. She didn't know why Su Qian suddenly asked this.
She looked down at the off - white embroidered dress on her body, recalling the huge logo on the paper bag, and didn't refute.
Su Qian then sneered coldly. "The wife of Director Cai at our table is a good friend of Xu's mother. They've been playing mahjong together for more than twenty years, and she goes to the Xu family several times a week. Just now at the dinner table, after she saw you, she casually mentioned that Ren Sijia loves things from Brand B the most. From bags to clothes to jewelry, they're all from Brand B. Xu Lize even got her a super VIP card at Brand B. Many people have seen her use it. It's for exclusive customization and personal service."
As she said this, she looked at Su Yang again, with a hint of pity in her eyes. "Tell me, what does Xu Lize think of you? A fake or a knock - off?"
"Are you done?" By this time, Su Yang had completely lost her patience.
Whether what Su Qian said was true or false, all she wanted to do now was to get out of the restroom quickly and breathe some fresh air outside.
"I advise you to think it through clearly. Really. Look at me now. I'm very clear - headed. What do you think I'm with Xu Wenfeng for? He's married, and his wife is an elderly pregnant woman now. Do you think I'm expecting him to divorce his wife and marry me? " Su Qian laughed exaggeratedly. "Don't be ridiculous. I admit I'm vulgar. I'm just after the money! When Xu Lize came to me and proposed marriage back then, I was also after the money. That's why I was driven by vanity and wanted everything. Well, in the end, you got the position of Mrs. Xu first. Of course I'm not willing. Who do you think you are? What makes you so special?"
"Move aside..." Hearing Su Qian's increasingly familiar tone, Su Yang pushed her away coldly, telling her not to block the door anymore.
"Su Yang, wake up!" Su Qian was still "advising" her as she opened the door. "If it weren't for the fact that you look a little bit like Ren Sijia, a businessman like Xu Lize, who only cares about business, would never have proposed marriage to you. Of course, it didn't really matter whether he married me or you back then. Anyway, we were just stepping - stones in his business. 10% of Mingkai's equity, Su Yang. You only got one million for it. You're really stupid..."
With a "bang", Su Qian watched helplessly as the heavy relief wooden door was slammed shut by Su Yang from the outside.
Su Qian stood there quietly. After waiting for more than ten seconds and hearing the footsteps gradually fading away outside the door, a meaningful smile slowly appeared on her face.
Then she took out her phone from her bag and quickly dialed a number.
The phone rang, and a soft "Hello" came from the other end.
"Sijia." Su Qian turned around and walked further in. While pushing the doors of each cubicle in order, she said excitedly, "I just saw Su Yang and told her everything you told me before."
"What?" Ren Sijia exclaimed on the other end of the phone. "Qianqian, you... How could you... Oh, my relationship with Brother San... That's all in the past. Why did you tell your sister these things?"
"She should know these things." Su Qian didn't think it was a big deal at all. "Moreover, didn't you tell me these things just so that I could pass them on to her?"
"Oh... I didn't mean that!" Ren Sijia quickly defended herself over the phone. "I just... I just thought I got along well with you. Your sister doesn't seem to like me very much, but I..."
"Okay, it's okay!" After checking the last empty cubicle, Su Qian said cheerfully, "What does it matter if she doesn't like you? It's enough that I get along well with you! Sijia, let me tell you, I fully support you in getting Xu Lize back. Really, only when two people in love are together can it be a perfect ending!"
