Chapter 42
Walking out the door, Su Qianci did not ask Yang to follow her around but took a taxi to a law firm half an hour away from home, according to her memory .
Sheng Ximing, one of the best lawyers in Kingstown . In her previous lifetime, Tang Mengying had set her up multiple times to be in legal troubles . Each time, Sheng Ximing was the one who had saved her .
It was the city center of Kingstown . In her previous lifetime, Tang Mengying had once taken her shopping around this area . And during lunch time, she had met Sheng Ximing . Walking into a restaurant near the law firm, Su Qianci found the spot that she remembered . At this spot, a man in his forties wearing a pair of wire-rimmed glasses was sitting in front of a laptop . The delicate food in front of him remained untouched . The man's eyebrows were knitted . Clearly, his case was not an easy one .
In Su Qianci's last lifetime, Sheng Ximing mistook her for a friend of his . Because Su Qianci looked like that friend, Sheng Ximing had done everything possible to help Su Qianci . Before the day Su Qianci had been set up to be the murderer of Captain Li, Sheng Ximing had told her that he had good news for her . She never had the time to hear the good news . What was it that Sheng Ximing was trying to tell her?
Feeling sorry, Su Qianci gazed at Sheng Ximing . Feeling Su Qianci's gaze, Sheng Ximing looked up at her sharply . It only took a glance for Sheng Ximing to be confused . A waiter carried a tray over and served a cup of coffee to Sheng Ximing . "Mr . Sheng Ximing, your coffee . "
Sheng Ximing reached for the coffee but took his hand back because of the heat . Accidentally, he tipped the cup and spilled the hot liquid on the floor .

The waiter became pale . "Sir, are you okay?"
Sheng Ximing shook his head and quickly cleaned himself up . He subconsciously looked to the direction of the girl . However, she was already gone . Was he delusional? Feeling incredibly sorry, Sheng Ximing looked down . However, as he turned his head, a slim figure had already appeared in front of him . The girl had bright eyes and flawless skin . Her face looked exactly like the person he had remembered at first glance .
However, with a closer look, they were quite different . The woman he remembered was elegant but warm . The girl in front of him seemed to be smiling, but her eyes were cold and distant . The girl's features were also more delicate than the woman he had remembered . Despite their difference, Sheng Ximing was still dazed .
Looking at the middle-aged man with a smile, Su Qianci greeted him politely . After all, for him, it was their first encounter . Looking at her smile, Sheng Ximing could not help comparing her to his old friend . They were so much alike . Feeling excited, Sheng Ximing's eyes lit up .
"Hello, my name is Su Qianci . "
Her words made his excitement go away immediately .
It was not her…
