Chapter 875: Distant Cousin
Within the conglomerate, the affairs grew more complex by the day, leaving Shen Xi with no choice but to channel all her emotions into work. In the midst of it all, she even managed to carve out time for a graduation thesis defense.
While the official announcement of Li Zhe and Meng Yu’s relationship was made abroad, it became the talk of the town back home. Li Industries, like a delicate sapling swaying in the wind, seemed on the verge of collapse.
Observing the two opposing groups in the meeting room, Li Jin felt an uncomfortable tug at her heart. Why did no one consider her an existing heir? Did they really have to cling to Li Zhe, a homosexual unlikely to have descendants?
"Are you Li Jin, my cousin?" a voice came from behind Li Jin, prompting her to turn around in surprise.
A girl in a floral dress stood before her, her eyes clear and a gentle smile playing on her lips.
Although the girl appeared innocent, Li Jin’s wariness instantly surged. After all, she used to portray herself as this type of girl.
"Who are you? Why are you calling me cousin?" Li Jin asked, her gaze tinged with suspicion.
"I’m Lin Mi. My grandfather is your grandfather’s cousin, and my mother is your father’s cousin," Lin Mi replied with a smile.
