Chapter 133 - Your Grandma is Here

In the washroom, Shen Fanxing stood straight before a sink. Both of her fair hands were under the tap as the cold water flowed between her fingers.

She tried curling her fingers to hold the water, but the water continued to flow through the gaps between her fingers.

She smiled silently to herself. What should be gone could never be held onto.

Sighing softly, she cleaned away the wine stains on her gown.

Just as she walked out of the washroom, Shen Fanxing felt a breeze. She paused and turned around, and noticed a terrace not far away.

Rather than returning to the noise in the hall, she preferred to take a breather on the terrace.

A breeze blew across her with a tinge of coldness.

Tonight, she wore a really simple and elegant gown and it painted her as a capable and shrewd lady. She had a slender figure with perfect proportions. She carried herself with poise.

There was little emotion in her sparkling eyes as she stood silently with an air of indifference and nobility.

Just like the wind.

“Fanxing—”

A familiar voice sounded behind Shen Fanxing. She frowned and turned around to see Su Heng gazing at her with a complicated expression, his hands in his pockets.

Shen Fanxing’s composed face darkened instantly. Looking at the empty terrace, she lowered her gaze and prepared to leave.

“Fanxing—”

Su Heng seemed to be here to seek her out. Seeing that Shen Fanxing was about to leave, he hurried forward to block her path.

In that instant, the two of them became intimately close. Su Heng caught a whiff of her faint scent.

Shen Fanxing had no choice but to stop moving. She took two steps back before looking up at him coldly.

“So… you’re here to settle scores on behalf of your beloved?”

Su Heng shook his head quietly. Hearing Shen Fanxing’s emotionless voice, an unspeakable desolation arose in his heart.

“No. I know it’s not your fault this time.”

Shen Fanxing let out a cold chuckle.

Not this time, but previously she was!

“Then what do you want to do?”

“I… bid for Qianrou tonight… because I’ve promised her before. But I didn’t expect the other lady to be you…”

“Enough, Su Heng. You didn’t expect it to be me, but in the end, you chose her even after realizing it was me. I didn’t cherish any hope that you would bid for me. But neither did I expect you to flaunt your love for her at tonight’s event…”

Shen Fanxing spoke slowly and calmly, and her eyes were as emotionless as a pool of still water.

However, that made Su Heng even more uncomfortable than her mocking him.

“I… apologize on behalf of Qianrou.”

“There isn’t a need… I won’t accept it.”

Shen Fanxing gave him a piercing stare before she swept past him.

…

When Shen Fanxing returned to the event hall, Xu Qingzhi looked solemn and glum.

“What’s wrong?”

Xu Qingzhi tilted her head in a direction and said, “Your grandma is here.”

Shen Fanxing frowned and looked ahead. Jiang Rongrong happened to be looking in her direction.

The next second, Jiang Rongrong marched towards Shen Fanxing with a glass in her hand.

She sized Shen Fanxing up from head to toe. Her shrewd-looking eyes reflected her satisfaction.

“Not bad.”

Shen Fanxing responded with an indifferent gaze, before she directed her attention to the man beside Jiang Rongrong.

Jiang Rongrong introduced smoothly, “This is Young Master Ding Haoding from the Ding Corporation!”

“Young Master Ding, this is my granddaughter, Shen Fanxing! Fanxing, hurry and greet Young Master Ding!”
