I shuddered all over and whirled around, only to see Zhao Mengxi standing behind me with her arms crossed and a contemptuous look in her eyes.
I hadn't expected to encounter Zhao Mengxi here. There was no guarantee Gu Tingshen could help, and if he didn't, running into Zhao Mengxi meant the chances of getting Sister Su out were virtually nil.
A mocking smile played on her lips as she stared straight at me, "Shen Chenhuan, what can you even do without my dad?"
She was clearly trying to humiliate me and to let those people understand that I was no longer associated with Master Zhao, which meant I couldn't fish in troubled waters under his guise anymore.
My face remained stoic and I said nothing while Zhao Mengxi approached me.
Sister Su was someone of status in our circle and had even recently become the deputy director of finance. She knew everyone in Guangzhou, big or small.
