Qingchi immediately became much more enthusiastic, sweeping away her earlier hostility: "Oh, so we're relatives! I knew it—when I saw you earlier, you looked so familiar! I must've seen you somewhere before!"
Li Si curled her lips. Who's her relative? What a thick-skinned remark!
"I'm the owner of Simeng. We've indeed met before!"
When Qingchi heard the word "Simeng," her expression froze. Her eyes darted around as if she suddenly remembered something. She gave a sheepish laugh and said, "No wonder you look familiar! Young lady, don't hold onto past grudges. I honestly didn't know what kind of relationship you had with Brother Jin back then! Otherwise, I wouldn't have..."
As she spoke, she sneaked glances at Jin Jiachao's face, afraid the young lady might exaggerate stories about her later.
