The CEO'S Incredible Heiress (Book 2)

Chapter 304: Plain Young Master Lee

Or rather, Krystal had gone to the school to get Sehun’s contact number. She did not know how to begin repairing their relationship, so she might as well make a trip down personally.

“I’m here to visit you. You’ve been back in the capital for so long, but I haven’t been to visit you yet.” Krystal’s voice was deliberately lighthearted.

“I also wanted to know more about your work environment,” she said.

In the past, Sehun might really have done his duty as an elder brother to her. However, it was impossible now. Knowing what Jennie’s life was like in the Kim family, Sehun’s impression of Krystal was that she was just an ordinary person. Their sibling relationship was long gone.

“Can’t you see that I’m in the middle of a consultation right now? The time that patients and doctors have is very precious. Next!”

An old woman walked in, trembling. “Doctor Gu…”

Krystal looked disinterested in her plight. However, Sehun was already engrossed in his work. He got the old lady to sit down and began his consultation.

It seemed that he was only interested in his work and would not be deliberately making things difficult for himself.

Krystal said, “Sorry, I’ll wait for you to get off work.”

She turned around and walked out. Chen Jierou was still smitten, so Krystal reached over and pulled her away.

Finally, it was six o’clock. Sehun took off his white coat and changed into his casual clothes. He even smelled like disinfectant.

“Brother.” Krystal ran over.

“What’s the matter?” Sehun did not even bat an eyelid at her. With the treatment book in his hands, he strode forward.

Krystal followed him and said, “My birthday is coming up soon. In the past, I used to celebrate my birthday with Jennie. This year, I want to invite her again. Do you think that’s a good idea?”

In order to ease her relationship with Sehun, she was willing to bow her head to Jennie.

“Not really.” Sehun stopped in his tracks. “We’ve already parted, so let’s go our separate ways.”

“Big Brother, my mom was indeed not very nice to Jennie in the past. I only found out later. If I had known earlier, I would have gotten her to change long ago. This time, I want to celebrate Jennie’s birthday with her. I also want to resolve our misunderstandings. After all, Jennie and I have been sisters for eight years.”

Sehun said calmly, “Is that so?”

“You can trust me, Brother.”

“I only believe in the truth.”

“Brother! Seeing is believing!” Krystal emphasized.

The past was already in the past. She did not believe that Sehun would be able to make comparisons like this forever. As long as she performed well now, she could definitely dispel his worries.

Only then did Sehun raise his eyes and look at her calmly for a few seconds. He said, “In the past, the Lee family was wrong and didn’t come to pick up Jennie in time. Now, the Lee family is reforming and making up for this mistake. In that case, I hope that the relationship between the Lee and Kim families will just end peacefully here.”

“Big Brother!”

Sehun’s strides were big. After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Krystal clenched her fists tightly as regret surfaced in her heart. If she had known… if she had known that Sehun would accomplish such achievements, she would not have been so brazen towards Jennie before.

She also regretted avoiding Sehun and Old Master Lee when they came to visit her.

“Krystal, Krystal?”

Krystal was stunned and realized that Chen Jierou was still beside her. She had seen everything.

Krystal said in a low voice, “Big Brother and I had a misunderstanding. Jennie slandered me in front of him. I wanted to resolve this misunderstanding today…”

“Jennie is too much! What right does she have to slander you!” Chen Jierou was indignant.

“It’s not her fault. After all, Big Brother is her biological brother. Big Brother should believe her.”

Chen Jierou said angrily, “Jennie is a troublemaker. Why is she always causing problems everywhere?”

“Forget it, it’s fine. I believe my brother will wake up soon.”

“By the way, you said that we should dress more plainly when meeting Big Brother. Why?”

“He has always dressed very plainly. He doesn’t like others to dress too gorgeously,” explained Krystal.

“That’s not true. Can’t you see that his shirt is a limited edition? The fabric of the jacket he changed into at the back is also very unique. His entire outfit is custom-made.”

Chen Jierou’s family was in the clothing business, so she was relatively knowledgeable.

Krystal was stunned. “What did you say?”

“I said he’s wearing custom-made clothes! They’re expensive. How could an ordinary person afford them? What part of him can be said to have anything to do with simplicity?”

Krystal could not believe it. On the way home, she was in a daze. After returning home, she asked the servant, “Where are the clothes I wore when I was young?”

“I think they were all thrown out.”

“Is there nothing left?”

“Miss, you are the one who said to throw everything away. You thought they were eyesores.”

Krystal’s expression turned extremely ugly. One of the servants seemed to have thought of something and said, “I saw a few pieces of good quality clothing. I saved them for my granddaughter to wear. Miss, if you want, I’ll bring them back for you.”

“Get them.”

Soon, the servant brought over a small bag with a dozen sets of clothes inside. They were all clothes that Krystal had worn back in that small town.

So many years had passed, and the maid’s granddaughter had worn them many times. However, the colors were still bright and hadn’t faded.

Krystal grabbed a handful of clothing. There were no labels on them. The designs were simple and mainly consisted of plain colors, black, white, and gray. At first glance, everything looked inconspicuous. Upon closer inspection, every part of the needlework was fine and uniform.

And in fact, just based on the fact that it had remained the same even after so many years, one could tell the value of the material and workmanship.

Krystal was shocked. What kind of family was the Lee family?

How was she able to wear handmade, high-end clothes while living in a small town!

***

After Jennie’s college entrance examination results were announced, Second High hung up a banner and held a celebration party for the entire Year Three class.

At the banquet, Principal Lu specially invited the teachers from First High School over. He showed them Jennie’s marks one by one.

The faces of the teachers and principal of First High School turned red and white.

They couldn’t blame Principal Lu for being arrogant. Back then, when Wen Yongwei had been the first prize winner of the domestic Mathematical Olympiad, First High School had almost hung a banner at the entrance of Second High School.

Right now, Principal Lu was just trying to get back at them. It was nothing special. Moreover, when the teacher from First High School mentioned the bet he had made, his voice was especially loud.

Jennie did not stay for long and walked out.

The others were still busy, and only she appeared at the entrance of Second High School.

It was already summer vacation and there were not many people at school. She strolled out and heard Krystal calling out to her, “Jennie!”
