Inheritance of Two Trillion

”So, was this sentence worth the meal?” Huo Qianxun asked with a smile.

”Absolutely!” Bai Xiaosheng laughed, ”I even made a profit!”

As the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard a woman’s sharp voice coming from next door, ”Yo, isn’t that Mr. Huo there!”

Bai Xiaosheng and Huo Qianxun looked up.

A young woman with a great figure, an oval face, and a pointed chin was sizing them up and down, her lips curving into a smirk that didn’t quite reach her eyes.

”Zhang Li.” Huo Qianxun’s brow furrowed slightly.

Is she an acquaintance? Bai Xiaosheng wondered internally.

However, given her unfriendly expression and Huo Qianxun’s lack of a pleasant demeanor, it seemed there was some bad blood between them.

”It’s quite rare to see you here,” Zhang Li walked over, slammed her plate onto the table, and sat down with a chair pulled out, her legs sheathed in black stockings. She crossed one leg over the other, pointing her foot, provocative and alluring, deliberately displaying it for Bai Xiaosheng’s side to see.

”It’s been a long time indeed, but as far as I remember, I didn’t invite you over,” Huo Qianxun said, slightly annoyed.

Zhang Li chuckled softly, ”Relax, this is a self-service restaurant, I’m not eating your food. No need to be so petty. Besides, it’s because of you that I left Zhongjing University. Don’t you feel a bit sorry about that!”

”My old classmate!”

Zhang Li’s last words came with a chilling look in her eyes.

Turns out she was Huo Qianxun’s classmate, Bai Xiaosheng was surprised.

However, he too had endured a rather unpleasant past during his university days and didn’t hold much regard for university classmates.

As for Zhang Li’s seductive allure, it might be tempting to others, but Bai Xiaosheng had seen all types of beauties. Such looks hardly piqued his interest.

”You might think of me as your old classmate, but I certainly don’t think of you!”

Huo Qianxun snapped in anger, ”Zhang Li, you know best what you did! We were supposed to compete fairly for a position at the university! Yet, you slandered and framed me and even tainted my father’s reputation. If my dad had really been selfish, then tell me, how could you possibly compete with me!”

Huo Qianxun was seething with rage; she wasn’t as forbearing as Officer Feng Li.

She had a fiery temper, and once provoked, it would burst forth.

Zhang Li, however, crossed her arms, tilted her head slightly and scrutinized her with a scoff, ”You don’t acknowledge me as a classmate? I’m embarrassed to acknowledge you! Thankfully, you made it possible for me to leave Zhongjing University. An old university teacher doesn’t make much in a month. The clothes you’re wearing don’t even match the value of my high-heeled shoes. What, did you save up for a long time just to afford a meal here?”

Then, she glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, who was still silent and expressionless, ”Oh, this must be your boyfriend, huh? Quite handsome. But nowadays, what matters is money, status. Ah, we’re just not on the same level anymore, I’d say you wouldn’t understand.”

Zhang Li sneered, ”Just a commoner!”

”You!” Huo Qianxun was so furious she clenched her teeth, then spit out, ”You’re no different, you commoner, aren’t you here eating as well!”

”That’s different!” Zhang Li laughed out loud, ”This restaurant belongs to my boyfriend, and if I see fit, I could throw you out at any time!”

As she said this, she grew even more smug, acting as if she was the owner’s wife.

While they were talking, a man came over with a jovial laugh, ”Lili, you’ve got friends here?”

”Yes, my dear. But they’re just some nobodies,” Zhang Li cooed.

Bai Xiaosheng raised his head and met the man’s gaze.

Upon seeing Bai Xiaosheng, the man’s face filled with terror, as if he had seen a ghost, and he blurted out, ”It’s you!”

”Long time no see,” Bai Xiaosheng watched him calmly, a smile forming, ”Your leg seems to have healed!”
