Reborn As Super Heiress-Chapter 35 - 33 Love Letters
Chapter 35: Chapter 33 Love Letters
Huo Sining felt nervous, afraid of being recognized, and kept her head down the whole time.
Unexpectedly, when she looked up again, the man had already left in a hurry, leaving her with only the view of his tall retreating figure.
Indeed, that was all in her past life. In this time and space, at this moment, that event hadn’t happened yet.
For some reason, thinking of this made Huo Sining feel a bit disappointed, and an indescribable emotion flashed through the depths of her heart.
Su Jinyuan was just about to arrange for Song Hui and others to go to a restaurant for a meal when the secretary approached him:
“Mr. Su, the receptionist said there are two young ladies in the waiting room who have asked to see you.”
Seeing the secretary’s suggestive look, Su Jinyuan knew what it meant. He felt a wave of disgust and impatience in his eyes, waved his hand, and said, “Send them away, don’t they see I’m busy?”
Just as the secretary was about to go inform the receptionist to handle the situation, Su Jinyuan’s gaze inadvertently swept over the lobby and paused, he hurriedly called out to the secretary, “Wait.”
The secretary was puzzled, but Su Jinyuan’s eyes had fallen on Huo Sining. He couldn’t help but walk towards the waiting room, entering under the secretary’s curious gaze.
The heavily made-up woman, seeing Su Jinyuan coming over, thought it was to meet her and was immediately surprised and delighted.
She stood up nervously, clutching her purse, and revealed what she believed to be her most charming smile, “Brother Jinyuan, I am Wu Linger, the second young miss from Wu’s Jewelry. We were on the same flight last time in Pudong, I don’t know if you still remember…”
Before Wu Linger could finish, Su Jinyuan completely disregarded her, walked past her, and finally stopped in front of Huo Sining, “What are you doing here?”
Lost in the memories of her past life, Huo Sining suddenly looked up to find Su Jinyuan standing right in front of her.
She was startled at first but quickly regained her composure, stood up, and said cheerfully, “You’re finished with the meeting? I’m here to sell you something.”
Sell something again? Surprise flickered in Su Jinyuan’s eyes, “Is it the same kind as last time?”
Huo Sining shook her head, her smile brimming with pride, “Actually, it’s from the same batch as last time, but the quality is even better than the previous one, it will definitely exceed your expectations.”
Su Jinyuan’s interest was piqued, knowing that Huo Sining wouldn’t speak without certainty. Since she dared to say so, it meant that what she wanted to sell must be something good.
However, he looked down at the time and frowned, “It’s past twelve, you haven’t eaten yet, have you? Let’s eat first, and we can talk about this afterwards.”
“Ah?” Huo Sining didn’t react at first.
But Su Jinyuan didn’t give her a chance to argue, directly taking hold of Huo Sining’s arm and walking towards the door.
Amidst the astonished looks of everyone around, Su Jinyuan faced President Song with an unaffected expression and asked with a smile, “President Song, you wouldn’t mind adding another pair of chopsticks, would you?”
Of course, President Song wouldn’t mind; he nodded with a smile, yet his gaze lingered on Huo Sining, glancing up and down.
President Song was utterly baffled. Wasn’t it said that the President of Donghua wasn’t interested in women, that he was almost thirty and reportedly never had a girlfriend? But it didn’t seem like that was the case now.
He didn’t know what this girl’s background was, but she seemed to have won the favor of Su Jinyuan, the old bachelor. It seemed that Su Jinyuan was really not as he appeared to be, actually fancying these unripe green grapes.

Internally scoffing, President Song had been considering when to introduce his cousin to Su Jinyuan, but it looked like there would be no chance now.
Now interested in Huo Sining, once they arrived at the restaurant and while Su Jinyuan was away at the restroom, President Song couldn’t help his curiosity and started to gather some information about the girl, asking, “Miss Beauty, may I ask your distinguished surname?”
Huo Sining felt hungry, so she was engrossed in eating and, without lifting her head when she heard Song Hui ask, she replied, “My last name is Huo.”
The surname Huo? In S City, there seemed to be no prestigious family with the surname Huo that could match the status of the Su Family.
Song Hui couldn’t help but frown involuntarily, “Miss Huo, it’s a pleasure to meet you. May I ask who your father is?”
Huo Sining then realized that the other party was trying to fish for information about her background. She looked up at Song Hui’s smiling face and felt a hint of ill intent, narrowing her eyes slightly:
“I’m an orphan. I’m currently selling ornamental fish at the Flower and Bird Market near Chenghuang Temple. Why, President Song, are you interested in buying one?”
Selling fish?! The smile on Song Hui’s face froze, and he didn’t ask any further questions.
However, throughout the meal, his gaze still occasionally fell on Huo Sining and Su Jinyuan, filled with both confusion and suspicion.
Su Jinyuan, however, did not notice anything unusual about Song Hui. Seeing Huo Sining eat with such gusto, he couldn’t help but think of his sister, Su Qingqing, who also ate wholeheartedly, unconcerned about anything else.
Seeing Huo Sining’s ravenous eating, a trace of amusement flickered in Su Jinyuan’s eyes. Noticing which dishes she went for more, his chopsticks unconsciously picked up some more of those dishes and placed them in her bowl, softly advising, “Eat slowly, don’t choke.”
When Huo Sining saw Su Jinyuan helping her pick up dishes, she paused, feeling a bit embarrassed, and muttered a thank you, noticeably slowing down her eating pace.
After eating, Huo Sining was getting impatient to leave, but the meal seemed like it would take a while to conclude. She checked the time and started getting restless.
Su Jinyuan noticed Huo Sining’s anxious expression and couldn’t help but ask softly, “What’s the matter?”
Huo Sining had no choice but to share with Su Jinyuan, “I’ve set my sights on a shop. I’ve negotiated a price with the owner, and we’ve arranged to sign the contract and transfer ownership this afternoon, but I’m short on cash right now.”
Su Jinyuan understood, no wonder this girl had come to sell her goods to him; she was trying to gather money to buy the shop.
“How much are you short?”
“Ah?” Huo Sining was taken aback and said with some embarrassment, “The shop is four million, I’m short by three hundred thousand.”
A four million shop? Could this young lady have been deceived?
Su Jinyuan frowned slightly, “Where is this shop located? I’ll send someone to go with you. I’ll front you the three hundred thousand for now.”
Huo Sining felt awkward and hurriedly waved her hands, “It’s not necessary, I can go by myself.”
Yet Su Jinyuan overrode Huo Sining’s objections, directly instructing the woman next to him, “Secretary Lin, accompany Miss Huo for the trip. She’s going to buy a shop, help her take a look, and if the money isn’t enough, you make up the difference.”
Seeing the firm arrangement, Huo Sining knew she couldn’t refuse anymore and reluctantly accepted.
After reflecting, she felt she couldn’t owe such a favor for nothing. She took out a box that contained three large pearls from her backpack and handed it to Su Jinyuan, boldly saying, “Here, this is for you!”
After speaking, she excused herself to the others at the table, turned around, and left the private room. Secretary Lin hurriedly followed.
Su Jinyuan held the box in his hand, already guessing what was inside. He appreciated Huo Sining’s unwillingness to take advantage of others for nothing and her principled way of doing things, yet he also felt a bit helpless. He shook his head, smiled faintly, and took a bite of food.
But everyone else in the room had their own thoughts, especially Song Hui, whose gaze occasionally rested on the box, secretly musing, could that box contain a love letter from the young lady?
