Chapter 381: Chapter 381: A Better Buyer

She thought that reliving her life could change her fate, but somehow, some things seemed destined by the heavens.

This life, she no longer visits the Han Family, yet Han Jifeng comes to find her at school.

Han Jifeng is no longer entangled with Xia Zhengguo; instead, he becomes the director after reporting Xia Zhengguo.

Now, Han Jifeng is proposing to marry Lai Wenyan.

During a chance encounter in the rest area, Han Jifeng’s calm eyes reflected in the glass, the moment they brush past each other, inexplicably suppresses her emotions.

This sensation takes Tang Li back to her previous life.

—The afternoon Han Jifeng took her to exchange for Lai Shengxia in her previous life.

That time, Han Jifeng had the same pair of eyes.

He was unwilling to set foot in his own villa, merely instructing his secretary to take her out. The black Mercedes-Benz, the secretary opened the rear door, and she saw the man sitting inside.

At that time, it had been a very long time since she had seen him.

Perhaps a year, or even two years.

At that moment, Han Jifeng already possessed a superior demeanor. As he sat there pursing his thin lips, she felt incredibly estranged. This unfamiliarity left them speechless in the same car, and then she became the "Lai Shengxia" that he negotiated with the kidnapper about.

Recalling the past, Tang Li had a bad premonition.

This premonition stems from Han Jifeng.

Since she could be reborn, does it mean that others could be as well?

This thought, once it emerged in her mind, lingered and refused to leave.

If Han Jifeng, like herself, holds deep love for Lai Shengxia, and now he has ascended to the position of director, why wouldn’t he try to take Lai Shengxia away instead of marrying her?

Or—

Did Han Jifeng notice her anomalies and, fearing she might harm the Lai Family, decided to keep her close to prevent any potential damage to Lai Shengxia?

Tang Li suddenly wanted to laugh.

Lai Shengxia’s voice came from behind her: "Ah Li, don’t you like Director Han?"

While speaking, Lai Shengxia returned to sit beside Qin Yansheng.

"It’s all family, don’t talk about adding trouble," Lai Shengxia assumed Tang Li was simply upset because Lai Wenyan didn’t recognize her in public, hence her reluctance to agree to the marriage, then continued: "Adults have their hardships. No one can live as they please. Your uncle is a man of soft heart hidden behind harsh words, ultimately he would consider your wellbeing, wouldn’t he?"

Ouyang Qian, preventing Lai Wenyan from speaking harshly, followed along with her daughter to mediate: "Before leaving tonight, Ah Li had a little argument with her uncle, and it seems this girl hasn’t calmed down yet."

She glanced again at Tang Li and smirked, "Knowing we were coming to the state banquet, she didn’t need my urging, Ah Li changed her clothes as soon as she got home."

What this implies is, if Tang Li didn’t like Han Jifeng, she wouldn’t have been so eager.

Lai Wenyan’s expression softened: "If she didn’t want to come, we couldn’t have forced her." Looking again at Han Jifeng, he grew more pleased with this son-in-law: "I approve of this marriage. If I refuse now, and she calms down later, she might blame me for breaking up a loving couple!"

Then, Lai Wenyan changed the topic: "Ah Li and my daughter are the same, from today onwards, Jifeng, you are my son-in-law of the Lai Family..."

At that moment, Tang Li stood up.

This gesture, in Lai Wenyan’s eyes, was extremely rude, and he immediately glared at Tang Li, warning: "In such a public setting, sit back down."

Tang Li took a glass of red wine from the table, drank it all in one go, one after another, three glasses in total, then threw the empty bottle back, looking at Lai Wenyan’s extremely grim face, she smirked, "Uncle wants to sell me for a good price, but there are even better buyers out there."

You bastard!

Lai Wenyan, furious, was about to scold her for her lack of restraint, but Tang Li had already left her place.

At this moment, the state banquet had officially started.

Apart from the security personnel, only Tang Li was standing.

Under the dazzling crystal chandeliers, Tang Li was not drunk, yet her cheeks were tinted with a flush of red, attracting the sideways glances of the surrounding guests.
