Chapter 121: Familiarity
A girl who was playing with her phone accidentally looked at the trending searches. When she saw the photo, she could not look away.
“Sis, what are you looking at?” A young man came over with two glasses of water and handed her one.
“I’m looking at Weibo.”
The girl took the glass of water without even looking at it, her eyes still on the phone.
“Is it that interesting?” The young man was puzzled.
He had rarely seen his sister in such a daze.
“I don’t know why…” The girl paused, her beautiful face looking a little lost. “I feel very sad whenever I see her.”
“Who is it?” The young man came over and the girl showed him her phone.
On the screen was Xing Jiuan, who had just alighted from the car. She looked cold and arrogant, like someone who had walked out of a painting.
“I think I’ve seen this person somewhere before…” The young man was puzzled.
Initially, he also thought that this person was amazingly stunning. However, in the next moment, he felt a sense of familiarity.
“Did we both lose our memories?” the girl asked casually.
“No, Sis, I think I saw her not long ago.”
“I saw her a while ago when I was overseas,” the girl thought.
However, this sense of familiarity did not feel like they had only met once or twice.
“When did you see her?”
“Let me think…”
The youth thought for a while and suddenly sat up straight. “I remember now. It was at the charity auction from before.”
There were many people at the auction, and there were people from their family who’d gone as well.
“Dad and I went there before. Sis, do you remember when I told you that someone had bid for a dozen items?”
He had bought more than a dozen items in one go, which added up to almost a hundred million. It was not an amount that just anyone could take out.
Therefore, many people were paying attention to those people.
“She was the one?”
“Sort of. It’s the man with her.”
“They probably came together. Dad said he wanted to go over to them and say a few words, but we saw someone head over first and the man seemed to be unhappy about it, so we didn’t go.”
“Who was he?” the girl asked curiously.
If their father had wanted to approach this person personally, he must not be ordinary.
“I asked, but Dad didn’t tell me, and he didn’t want me to find out either.”
“I understand.”
The girl looked down at the picture again.
“Sis, why are you so concerned about this person? Oh yes, she’s a girl.”
“Of course I know that,” the girl said and walked away.
The young man sat there, not understanding why his sister was suddenly ignoring him.
The girl walked to the side and dialed a number.
“Hello, Uncle Zhao.”
“Hey, Xixi. What’s the matter?”
“The variety show you mentioned before, can we still participate?”
“You want to go on that variety show?” The other party was a little surprised.
“Yes.”
“Well, I’ll have to ask the director. I’ll get back to you soon.”
“Alright, thank you.”
After hanging up, the girl lowered her head and leaned against the wall behind her, closing her eyes slightly.
“Who… are you?”
She waited a moment before the call came back.
“Xixi, the filming for the current episode of the variety show will end in about four days. Do you have time in the next few days?”
“I’m free anytime.”
“Do you want to head over today or tomorrow? I’ll let them know.”
She paused. “Today. I’ll pack right away. Thank you, Uncle Zhao.”
“You’re welcome. It’s rare that you want my help.”
