Liu Xuan placed special emphasis on the word "me."
Lin Qi mulled over her answer.
Meanwhile, Lin Xin chimed in, "See! I knew it. It has to be about you and my sister-in-law."
Lin Qi still ignored Lin Xin.
'Liu Xuan had said "me," not "us." That distinction was worth exploring.'
'Something about Liu Xuan?'
'What could it be?'
Lin Qi's mind drifted, back to many years ago.
He and Liu Xuan had met because of an accident during an experiment.
It was only after that incident that Lin Qi managed to get his foot in the door with the corporation.
His education, his career—everything had been smooth sailing since.
'Perhaps that was what Liu Xingyuan wanted to discuss.'
Lin Qi glanced at Liu Xuan, but the words caught in his throat. In the end, he didn't ask her directly.
'This might involve one of Liu Xuan's secrets. Even if I were to ask, I couldn't do it in front of so many people.'
For a moment, they both fell silent, and the atmosphere grew strange.
