Chapter 565 - Saying Hi

Since the time Tang Hebe came to join her old friends, she had indeed drank too many cups of coffee to keep herself going. It was only because one of her friends saw how she was only pouring down coffee down her throat that she bought him a milk tea. And even though Tang Hebe did enjoy the milk tea but it was too sweet for her liking and it was definitely not coffee!

So, right after that, she came to get another cup of coffee to remove the taste of milk tea from her mouth. She already knew she was kind of addicted to coffee but it couldn't be helped now.

Out of all the places, she definitely didn't think she'd run into Raelle here. And at first, she didn't want to but she couldn't help calling out to her.

"Missy, let me hold that for you."

Tang Hebe looked at the person who came over to stand beside Raelle to take those two cups from her hand. 

"Oh, but I can carry it," was Raelle saying to that woman.

"But that doesn't mean you have to," replied another lady from her other side.

Raelle didn't say anything and passed them the cups and then she turned her attention back to Tang Hebe. Of course, she didn't recognize her. After all, she had never seen her face before. In fact, it could be said that Raelle had never even taken Shui Xian's first wife that seriously to consider learning more about her.

"Do you know me?" asked Raelle.

Tang Hebe smiled at that, "I think anyone who pays attention to the news these days would know who you are."

"Can't argue with that," said Raelle. Even she knew how heated the conversation online was. But the good thing was she had already asked her PR team to get rid of this discussion. This much heat was enough. She didn't want any more unwanted attention than she was already receiving. "But is there anything you have to say to me?"

Tang Hebe shook her head, "Not really. I just wanted to say hi."

"That's all?" asked Raelle.

Tang Hebe nodded in reply, "It's not every day you'd run into President Raelle just so randomly buying coffee. I thought I should take advantage of this moment and show you my face."

"Show me your face?" repeated Raelle in interest.

Tang Hebe hummed softly, "I heard President Raelle has an impeccable memory. You won't forget once you see someone. So, I should be doing everything to show you my face. Who knows I might need your help in the future?"

"But perhaps you don't know that I have another talent," told Raelle. "I can easily delete people from my memory."

Tang Hebe's smile broadened as she shook her head, "Something tells me, you won't be forgetting me." She held out her hand, "It's a pleasure to meet you."

Raelle didn't take her hand but said, "I believe you didn't introduce yourself. If you want me to remember you, I should at least know whom I'm giving space in my memory."

"Tang Hebe."

Raelle pulled up the corners of her lips into one of her what she considered to be a polite smile as she said, "Oh, then it's definitely nice meeting you." She looked at her hand that Tang Hebe hadn't pulled back and said, "No offense but I don't like touching strangers."

Only then did Tang Hebe take her hand back and smile in understanding, "I understand. Hope I'll be seeing you again. If you don't mind?"

"If we are in the same city, it's inevitable that we'd run into each other," said Raelle. "See you again, Miss Tang. Have a good day!"

Tang Hebe looked at her back as she strode out of there and nodded her head. "She knows," she mumbled to herself. She was actually surprised at how calm Raelle was. Even if she knew she was Shui Xian's ex-wife, Raelle didn't react. She was pretty chill and easygoing. 

She didn't know what Raelle actually knew about her. Even if she didn't recognize her face, she did recognize her name. That meant she knew at least something about her. But then again, Shui Xian couldn't possibly hide his first marriage.

It could be considered quite a pleasant meeting between an ex-wife and the current wife. If anything it had to be one of the most peaceful meetings ever! They were both civilized, educated, and successful women. There was no reason for them to be at each other's throats.

Tang Hebe had a pleasant smile on her face when she went back to join her group of friends with a cup of coffee. She wasn't lying when she told Raelle that she just wanted to say hi. She indeed just wanted to say hi to her. And it had nothing to do with Shui Xian. But others didn't need to know that for now.

As Raelle walked out of there, she turned to Anna and said, "Should I start using mobile payment?"

"It's not necessary," replied Anna tactfully. After all, just how many times did Raelle even buy anything for herself? Whatever she needed was bought by the people around her. She hardly had the need to even pull out her card to swipe.

"But everyone is using it now," Raelle pointed out. 

"Just because everyone is using it, you don't have to," said Hailey from the other side. "After all, Missy is always special. How can you follow other people?"

"Why do I think you both are trying to coax me like a kid?" asked Raelle. 

Both Anna and Hailey's eyes opened wide. 

"Forget it," said Raelle. 

They were happy that she dropped the topic. But then again, Raelle didn't like troublesome things and that's why she never carried cash on her person. Even if she carried her phone with her, it was only like a duty. She still found her phone to be quite troublesome.. It was still better to just let the people around her pay.
