Chapter 169: A Vicious Woman
Athena could barely process so much information. Situ Jingyi was such a wicked woman. She appeared to be a gentle and refined young lady from a wealthy family, but recalling the moment she erupted with emotion when Athena begged her to save Ji Xiangyu, it was truly disheartening.
Could it be that she wanted to break them up when she and Ji Xiangyu were together before? How she wished she could remember things about her and Ji Xiangyu, so she wouldn’t feel so tangled and sad!
She didn’t know how she walked out of Andrei’s room. All she remembered was the fact that she was Qing Tian constantly playing in her mind. She walked into a stairwell and sat quietly, thinking about some things.
In the dim stairwell, a familiar scene flashed by. It seemed like a long time ago, in a similarly dim stairwell, someone was holding her. The image wasn’t very clear, but she vaguely felt it might be related to Ji Xiangyu!
Just then, someone started talking on the floor above. They probably didn’t know she was there, as they weren’t speaking very loudly. Athena dared not move, or the motion-activated light would turn on!
It was a man’s voice: “Master Situ, all arrangements for reselling the hotels have been made. William will be back in a couple of days to inspect the hotels. We’ve also bought quite a few small shares. If anyone opposes us in the Board of Directors, we’ll still have forty percent of the shares!”
Following that was a man’s hearty laughter, which could be identified as Situ Haonan: “Well done. If this goes smoothly, Ji’s Enterprise will lose at least half of its assets! Hahaha~~~~”
“Master Situ, the General Manager holds percent of the shares. If he sides with the Chairman, together they’ll have more than us. What should we do?”
Situ Haonan became displeased: “That Director Bai isn’t cooperating. First, go investigate him and find some leverage. Make this old man go home and rest properly, or transfer his shares. Get everything by any means necessary, understand?”
The man said: “Yes, I’ll take my leave now!”
Athena gasped, covering her mouth in surprise, afraid of making even the slightest sound. This secret was too terrifying. Situ Haonan was planning to resell hotels and had already acquired shares from small shareholders? What should she do?
Later, the people upstairs left one after another. She felt that besides Situ Haonan’s voice, the other person’s voice was also very familiar. Where had she heard it before? She couldn’t recall!
Dazed, she took the elevator, intending to go to Andrei’s office to find him and relay this news. Everything seemed to be falling into place, but as soon as she entered the elevator, she was scrutinized by a young girl. She stepped forward to meet her. It was a young girl with wine-red dyed hair, about her age. This appearance seemed somewhat familiar!
The woman was dressed very elegantly, her large eyes staring directly at her. Athena felt a bit uncomfortable and averted her gaze.
The woman suddenly spoke: “Qing Tian, what are you doing here?”
Qing Tian. This woman called her Qing Tian. She must have known her before. Who could it be? She had no impression at all.
Athena didn’t turn back, pretending not to hear. The woman walked around to the front of her, picked up her work ID, and looked at it rudely and impolitely: “Athena? What’s going on? Role-playing?”
Athena was very annoyed. She impatiently pushed the impolite woman away and said: “Miss, please mind your manners. This is the Holy Courtyard Hotel, not your home!”
The woman’s bright red lips moved as she said to Athena: “Oh, you’re right, this is my family’s hotel. So what? You’re the Chief Assistant, right? I’ll have Brother Yu deal with you properly!”
Athena was confused. Brother Yu? Could she be referring to Ji Xiangyu? This must be Ji Xiangyu’s sister. She deliberately examined the fashion-forward young lady in front of her. Indeed, there were similarities to Ji Xiangyu.
But how could she know her? Who was she?
