1621: Embarrassed to See Me

Embarrassed to See Me

Xia Xibei returned to the company, and after talking to management about her upcoming schedule, she was ready to go back.2

However, when she heard that there was a car accident on the way back, and there was a lot of traffic, she chose to stay and rest temporarily.

While on her break, other people happened to have gone out, and she was the only one left in the meeting room.

She did not think too much, picked up the phone, and began to check the news.

After a while, there was some movement at the door.

When she looked up, she saw a face that surprised her.

Wasn't this... Dong Shulan's stepdaughter?

Xia Xibei did not have a deep impression of Meng Sushan. However, relying on her strong memory, she still recognized Meng Sushan and knew that she was Dong Shulan's stepdaughter.

If Xia Xibei was Dong Shulan's biological daughter, the two of them would be considered sisters.

Unfortunately, Dong Shulan was not related to her.

When Meng Sushan joined the company as a trainee, Xia Xibei knew about it.

At that time, Qiao Yanjue had already told her about it.

Qiao Yanjue was more concerned than her about these people who might become enemies.

After that, Xia Xibei would occasionally receive news about Meng Sushan.

However, Meng Sushan had been quite peaceful and did not do anything, so she did not care. There was no need to pay too much attention to an ordinary trainee anyway.

Moreover, there was no relationship between the two parties, so why should they pay attention?

After so many months, Xia Xibei, who had been busy, didn't care about Meng Sushan's existence anymore.

She just didn't expect that Meng Sushan would approach her.

"You are...?" Xia Xibei was calm but still looked puzzled. "What are you doing here?"

Hearing Xia Xibei's doubts, Meng Sushan's mood suddenly sank quite low.

She had thought that Xia Xibei would recognize her.

Now, Xia Xibei actually asked her who she was. Didn't that mean she didn't care about her at all?!

With just one sentence, Meng Sushan felt that her calculations were half-smashed.

However, Meng Sushan's nerve and mental fortitude was still very good, and she immediately pulled herself together.

"Hello, my name is Meng Sushan, and my mother is Dong Shulan."

"Dong Shulan?" Xia Xibei put the phone away with a calm face. "You're her stepdaughter, huh?"

"Right," Meng Sushan nodded, "We are very close."

"Say, what do you want to see me about?" Xia Xibei directly interrupted her.

Xia Xibei didn't know if their relationship was really that good, but even if they had a good relationship, so what? What did it matter to her?

Meng Sushan's smile instantly stiffened.

It seemed that Xia Xibei didn't care about Dong Shulan at all!

Although she knew that Xia Xibei was not Dong Shulan's biological child, after all, Dong Shulan had raised her for so many years. There was no need to be like this, right?

Meng Sushan was all kinds of upset, but she still smiled and said, "It's nothing, just... I..."

Her eyes rolled and she quickly thought of a reason, "It's just that mom misses you and wants to see you!"

She gave herself credit for improvisation!

Bravo!

She originally wanted to form a relationship with Xia Xibei before making a request.

Although Xia Xibei's reaction was unexpected, it was still possible to go on!

"She misses me?" Xia Xibei froze for a moment, then smiled. "She wants to see me?"

"Yes!" Meng Sushan immediately nodded. "She has always missed you! It's just that...."

"She's embarrassed to see me, right?" Xia Xibei retorted.
