556: Tang Xinyang's feelings

Tang Xinyang's feelings

As Xiong Zhi shook her head, Linfeng stared at her dumbfoundedly.

When did he seduce her?

She was the one doing the seduction!

Xiong Zhi stood up.

"I have been enlightened thanks to you. I'll go there and correct myself." She walked away before Linfeng could question her.

Linfeng: ???

'I could not understand a thing.'

Meanwhile, Tang Xinyang walked fast and ignored the people who came up to her. She immediately caught up with Jang Shin, but she did not call out to him. She just walked past him and said without looking at him. "I changed my mind. I want to sit somewhere here. The person surnamed Jang should sit at Linfeng's table."

Jang Shin: "..."

Tang Xinyang was fast and took the seat he was eyeing. Seeing that Tang Xinyang settled herself there, Jang Shin sighed and just shook his head. Since Xinyang wanted him to remain at that table, he would let her. It was not a good idea to go against her wishes right now.

Tang Xinyang sat there with crossed arms and looked at the woman on the table with anger.

Then she was stunned.

"...Sister Mei?"

The short-haired woman in the sophisticated dress was taken aback as well. "Miss Tang Xinyang."

Xiao Mei carefully put down her glass. She was surprised.

Who would not be taken aback when a woman suddenly sat down at their table without saying anything and then looked at her with such intimidating eyes?

Tang Xinyang recovered. Now she understood why Jang Shin took this table. Xiao Mei was one of Xiong Zhi's people after all.

But wait...

"Are you single, Sister Mei?" 

Song Xuantin had been calling Xiao Mei as Sister Mei. Tang Xinyang, Song Xuantin's and Xiong Zhi's close friend, naturally got acquainted with Xiao Mei. She was friendly and started calling Xiao Mei as Sister Mei as well.

Xiao Mei was perfectly alright with this as she saw the three girls like her sisters.

Xiao Mei was taken aback once more by her sudden question. "Why do you ask?"

Tang Xinyang pouted. "You are pretty, feminine, has backbone, and is very hard working and capable. Surely many men are chasing after you." 

Her Jang Shin would not be one of those men, right?

Xiao Mei blinked. Tang Xinyang was very straightforward that she did not know how to deal with those very direct compliments.

Xiao Mei coughed to ease her embarrassment. "I am very honored that you think highly of me, but why do you ask that?"

Tang Xinyang: "So are you dating someone?"

Xiao Mei: "..."

Why are you so interested in my romantic affairs?

"Are you?" Tang Xinyang was still insisting.

Xiao Mei could not help but think of a certain man. She dispersed the thought immediately. Why did she think of him suddenly? Really, it must be because he is the only man Xiao Mei was close with.

"I am not dating anyone."

Tang Xinyang pouted even more. "You should enjoy life more and start dating... but not my Jang Shin."

Xiao Mei: ????

Tang Xinyang then looked around. "Where's Xuantin by the way?" She knew that Song Xuantin was arranged to be with Xiao Mei on one table.

Xiao Mei glanced at the second row. "She saw someone she knew."

"Oh."

Tang Xinyang called out a waiter to pour her a glass of fruit wine. She then sat there drinking silently, seemingly in deep thoughts.

Xiao Mei looked at Tang Xinyang strangely. She had been with Tang Xinyang many times and knew that the woman was not at all silent like this. 

This was rare.

When she was about to ask if Tang Xinyang had something in her mind, a woman suddenly came to sit with them.

Xiong Zhi was surprised to see Xiao Mei on the table. "So it is actually you."

Xiao Mei: "Huh?"

Xiong Zhi waved her hand and glanced at the quiet Tang Xinyang who just shot her a glance and did not ask what Xiong Zhi was doing here.

Xiong Zhi turned to Xiao Mei. "Where's Song Xuantin?"

Xiao Mei tilted her glass at the second row. "She is with Tanaka Group."

Xiong Zhi nodded. Tanaka Group was Gu Zhen's partner company, after all. It was normal for Song Xuantin to greet Shinichi and inquire about Gu Zhen.

Xiong Zhi turned to Tang Xinyang with a strange light in her eyes. "Xinyang, you are doing great."

"Huh?" Tang Xinyang absentmindedly asked.

Xiao Mei also looked at her boss curiously. 

So what was really happening here?

"Ignoring Jang Shin. This will give him a sense of urgency." Xiong Zhi just repeated Linfeng's words.

"What do you mean?" Tang Xinyang's attention was attracted.

"Linfeng knows Jang Shin a lot. I don't want to get ahead of you, but I want you to feel more assured."

Xiong Zhi glanced around, leaned forward, and whispered. "Jang Shin might have feelings for you."

"I know." 

"Linfeng said so, it must be true--" Xiong Zhi paused, then asked in surprise. "What did you say?"

"I know."

Tang Xinyang knew?

"I just confirmed it earlier."

Xiong Zhi fell silent.2

"...Then, why are you sad?" 

They should be celebrating right now. Knowing Tang Xinyang, she should have pushed down Jang Shin already and made proof of their love.

Tang Xinyang shook her head exasperatedly. "I don't know why myself. I... I even think that it might be a good thing if I didn't know it like before, and just kept chasing after him. I don't know why I'm feeling this way. Now that I know, I feel more down."

'...'

Xiong Zhi did not understand at all. If it was her and she came to know that Linfeng had feelings for her, she would strike while the iron was hot.

Tang Xinyang swirled the fruit wine in her glass. Her eyes were melancholic.

"I feel like I am pressed down underwater and cannot breathe."

Xiong Zhi patted her back in concern. "Try to breathe in and out."

"That's not what I mean."

"Oh." Xiong Zhi put down her hands.

Tang Xinyang continued. "I feel like, I am waking up a person who is pretending to be sleeping. Jang Shin might have feelings for me, but he probably does not love me enough to face it. He doesn't even accept it. I don't know, but this feels more disheartening. I just felt that it is like that."

A woman had their sixth sense in these matters. And their intuition was generally always on point.
