Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 404 Identical

"Hospitalized?" Zhuo Yiqing was surprised, "Which hospital?"

"That... I’m not really sure. How about you leave a business card, and I’ll ask then let you know?"

"Sure, that’d be a trouble. Thank you."

Zhuo Yiqing exchanged contact information with him, left the Su Building, and headed to the airport with his assistant.

Every profession has its own circles, and the important client Zhuo Yiqing was going to pick up today was a top figure in their legal circle.

She was Gina, the head of Ruida Law Firm, one of the global Big Four law firms.

The Ruida Headquarters is located in Empire, specializing in international arbitration, international trade, antitrust, and transnational mergers and acquisitions. They are very strong in these areas, with branches and cooperative agencies in dozens of countries around the world.

This trip to China was to discuss cooperation.

Before this, Zhuo Yiqing had spoken to her over the phone but had never met her in person; however, based on her voice, she seemed quite young.

After driving for dozens of minutes, they arrived at the airport. Zhuo Yiqing looked at the time; there was still half an hour before the plane would land, so he had his assistant hold up the pickup sign and wait at the exit.

During the wait, he lowered his head to deal with work on his mobile phone, and time swiftly passed by without notice.

Dozens of minutes later, the flight landed and passengers streamed out continuously.

Zhuo Yiqing was conversing quietly with his assistant while scanning the crowd for a woman who might be Gina. Suddenly, he saw a familiar face in the crowd.

He was slightly startled, his eyes widened. His assistant beside him seemed to have also spotted the person, wearing a bewildered and surprised expression.

The young woman was strikingly attractive, frequently drawing sideways glances from passersby. She quickly noticed the pickup sign on their side, smiled slightly, and briskly walked towards them.

"Hello," she stopped in front of Zhuo Yiqing and his assistant, speaking softly in fluent Chinese, albeit with a distinctive Chinese-accented cadence, "I am Gina, Su Yao."

"Su, Su Wanxin?!" The assistant, not as composed, gasped in shock.

Su Yao, hearing the name he mentioned, asked in confusion, "Who is Su Wanxin?"

The assistant was dumbfounded, turning his head to look at Zhuo Yiqing, only to see that their usually composed Lawyer Zhuo was also sporting a baffled expression.

Zhuo Yiqing looked at the woman in front of him; she had the same appearance as Su Wanxin. It’s just that she had ear-length short hair and, compared to Su Wanxin, seemed to lack a certain unwell appearance.

Su Yao noticed their reactions, her brows slightly furrowed with dissatisfaction.

To size up a cooperation client like this upon first meeting, where did their professional demeanor go?

Zhuo Yiqing quickly regained his composure, smiled apologetically, and explained, "Sorry, it’s just that you look very similar to a friend I know, so I was a bit surprised."

"Oh?" Su Yao raised an eyebrow, "How similar are we, to the extent that you would be so shocked?"

"...Exactly alike."

Zhuo Yiqing was correct; if her hair was a bit longer, her figure a bit slimmer, she would truly be indistinguishable from Su Wanxin.

Su Yao, hearing him say so, had a fleeting glint in her eyes. "Do you have a photo? I’d like to see."

"This way, please, President Su. Let’s walk and talk."

Zhuo Yiqing reverted to his professional lawyer demeanor, leading Su Yao outside while pulling out his phone to find a photo of Su Wanxin.

In fact, there are quite a few photos of Su Wanxin on the internet, many of which are screenshots taken by netizens from the variety show she was on before.

Zhuo Yiqing casually picked a few and handed his phone to Su Yao.

Su Yao took the phone, and at the first glance of the photos on the screen, she stopped in her tracks.
