Chapter 592: Chapter 592: Don’t Lock Your Heart

Gong Xin quickly signed the autographs, while Suizi and Shen Liangyin enthusiastically fueled this enthusiasm. Every time Gong Xin looked tired, Shen Liangyin and Suizi would change the topic.

They could casually chat with Gong Xin individually. Together, the effect of their mesmerization on him was even more astounding.

It took just over an hour to complete all the autographs that Shen Liangyin had brought.

"I must have signed over a hundred, right?" Gong Xin’s eyes were dazed as he looked vaguely at the postcards he had signed.

"Just a few dozen. These postcards are thick, so it seems like a lot," Suizi lied blatantly.

Shen Liangyin quickly gathered up all the signed cards, smiling like a flower in full bloom. This was the initial accumulation of capital, wasn’t it?

"Let me check if the dishes are ready." Suizi stood up and went out to signal the waiter. The dishes were brought out shortly after.

Gong Xin felt as if his hands were numb. Shooting for two days straight wasn’t as tiring as signing these "dozens" of autographs.

He originally thought that after signing so many autographs, these two women would worship him even more and try to please him nicely. But it seemed that Gong Xin was thinking too much.

The women were focused on money. Now, having gotten the signed cards, they couldn’t even bother to pretend to care, keen on ending the meal early and discussing how to cash in on their loot.

Seeing the two women eating silently, not uttering a word, Gong Xin felt extremely embarrassed on the side. He tried to start a conversation several times, but nobody responded.

Suizi took a handkerchief and wiped her mouth.

"I’m done eating."

"I’m pretty much done too." Shen Liangyin echoed.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Gong. When you visit D City next time, please let us know. It’ll be our turn to treat you." Suizi politely said.

To translate Suizi’s words, Shen Liangyin thought, this meal was covered by Gong Xin. As for the next one to be covered by Suizi, that seemed far from near. Stingy, truly.

"Let’s sit for a while longer. I still have some questions about the city’s history." Gong Xin was breaking into a sweat at the thought of these two ladies leaving.

Your answer is too long, please try again.

"I am going to the restroom. I’ll be right back." Suizi stood up.

"I’m going too." Shen Liangyin habitually touched up her makeup.

Both women didn’t hear Gong Xin’s attempt to keep them. Now that the autographs were in their hands, who had the time to entertain a stranger?

Seeing the two women leave, Gong Xin was ecstatic. He took out a paper package from his pocket, quickly poured it into Suizi’s glass, and stirred it well with a chopstick.

The white powder quickly dissolved in the juice. Gong Xin picked up the glass to take a closer look and made sure there were no flaws. Only then did he put the glass down.

Shen Liangyin, who was coming out of the toilet, saw this through the glass.

Gong Xin was facing away from Shen Liangyin and didn’t see Shen Liangyin who had come out. However, Shen Liangyin, through the glass Gong Xin was facing, saw his actions.

Shen Liangyin’s first reaction was that she was seeing things. Before she could verify, Gong Xin had put down Suizi’s glass and returned to his seat.

Shen Liangyin had seen a lot in her time as a factory manager. She was sure she was not mistaken; this man had tampered with Suizi’s drink.

Shen Liangyin’s heart rate accelerated.

Realizing Gong Xin didn’t notice her, Shen Liangyin quickly retreated back to the restroom, aware that she had arrived at a crossroads.

If she pretended not to know and let Suizi consume that tampered drink, Chen Hansui would certainly be in trouble.

She didn’t know what Gong Xin was planning but it was clear that it wouldn’t be anything good.

Chen Hansui had indeed caused her a lot of trouble in the past.

She had always opposed her and sabotaged her from the position of a lofty factory director to being a second-in-command at a beer factory.

According to Shen Liangyin’s previous line of thought, her embarrassing fall and wardrobe malfunction should also be blamed on Suizi.

Wasn’t it because Chen Hansui always wore nice clothes that provoked her?

Besides, if anything happened to Chen Hansui, perhaps she could tell Yu Jingting, and maybe Jingting would divorce Chen Hansui....

All of these thoughts crossed Shen Liangyin’s mind in an instant.

Reason told her that if she wanted to take revenge on Suizi, this could be the only opportunity.

Moreover, the one drugging the drink was Gong Xin and not her. If things went south, it wouldn’t fall on her.

"What are you standing here for?" Suizi emerged and saw Shen Liangyin standing in the restroom with a complex expression.

"Nothing, let’s go." Shen Liangyin was still undecided, still wrestling with her conscience.

The yellow light shone on Suizi’s face, and the mirror on the restroom wall reflected the silhouettes of two women.

Shen Liangyin was slightly entranced looking at Suizi.

Today, Suizi was also wearing a white dress covered with a light pink coat, looking graceful and intellectual.

Although Shen Liangyin also wore a white dress, standing next to Suizi, she appeared as nothing more than a maid. She couldn’t understand why Suizi looked so stunning in the same white dress?

Now, Suizi’s clothes were always high-end, custom-fitted by her fourth aunt, neither too tight nor too loose, naturally making her stand out from the crowd. A little secret which Shen Liangyin failed to understand.

Suizi in a white dress appeared like an unblemished goddess. A voice echoed in Shen Liangyin’s mind, if Suizi were tainted, would people still like her?

She had witnessed Suizi’s popularity in the beer factory.

Being the wife of the factory director, Suizi was highly respected. Jingting’s wife knew very well how to negotiate, especially with matters concerning family diplomacy.

Whatever issues arose, Suizi was sure to handle them on behalf of Jingting. Moving school, for instance, was solved by just having a word with Suizi, helping every residential worker in the factory, sending soup to the sick workers at the factory.

These were all small things but were greatly appreciated.

There was nobody in the factory who didn’t admire Suizi. Even Shen Liangyin’s smooth integration in the group was because of Suizi.

Being a jealous and Comparative person, Shen Liangyin couldn’t help but feel inferior around Suizi who always outshone her and wished for Suizi to encounter some misfortune.

Once Suizi left the door, everything that followed had nothing to do with her ... Shen Liangyin thought, yet felt unease in her heart.

The feeling was like being constricted by a glass cover, causing suffocation.

Shen Liangyin walked ahead of Suizi. Just before reaching the door, a hand grabbed her arm, startling Shen Liangyin.

It was Suizi.

"You’ve stained your dress." Suizi spotted a red patch on the back of Shen Liangyin’s dress.

Looking in the mirror, Shen Liangyin realized that her period had arrived.

It wasn’t there when she’d been to the restroom earlier and came suddenly, even staining the dress. It was more like excessive bleeding than menstruation...

Shen Liangyin was mortified. Suizi pulled out a sanitary pad from her bag and took off her coat.

"You handle this first. After coming out, you can use my coat."

"And you will just wear this?" Shen Liangyin’s dress had full sleeves attached and Suizi’s was a two-piece suit with a sleeveless dress inside.

The weather was a bit chilly in the evening and wearing full sleeves was just right while wearing Suizi’s dress wouldn’t be very comfortable.

"It’s okay, I can handle the cold. You go handle this first. I’ll wait for you here." Suizi’s words brought tears to Shen Liangyin’s eyes.

The glass cover on her heart seemed to shatter.
