Chapter 536: 536: Li Shengxiao was already very powerful at 16
“It’s here.” Rong Yan found where the notebook was kept, and just as she picked it up, she saw something like a photo album placed on the rack where the notebook was.
She hadn’t planned to look through it, as it was impolite to go through someone else’s things without their permission. Yet, when she saw a very cute photo on the album cover that resembled Little Baby, she couldn’t resist the itch and picked up the album to flip through it.
There weren’t many photos inside, each showing the passage of time. There were adorable baby photos, as well as photos of a toddling child at one or two years old. The reduced photo on the cover was of Li Shengxiao at around five years of age.
The little boy in the photo had delicate features and dark eyes, which vaguely connected to his current appearance. He bore a slight resemblance to Little Baby, but only to a certain extent.
Because compared to the little boy in the photo, Little Baby was obviously cuter and more tender.
As Rong Yan flipped from the first to the last photo, she noticed that the man in the limited number of photos had fewer smiles after the age of eight, and the photos themselves became rarer.
The closer to the end, the more prominent became the noble and majestic air of the man in the photos, and the deeper grew the impatience in his brow.
Some photos even revealed a maturity and fatigue on his face that didn’t match his age.
Suddenly, Rong Yan remembered the news about this man that she had seen before. The news reported that he took over the Li Group at the age of 16 in a crisis, and within just five years, he led the Li Group to a new level. In recent years, he had ventured into many businesses that the Li Group had never touched before. Under his leadership, the Li Group was prominent not just in Capital City, but all over the globe!
All of this was inseparable from the investment of that young man who couldn’t be younger…
16 years old… she thought, what was she doing at 16?
It seemed that at 16, she was still foolishly blinded by a jerk and a cheap girl, although due to good luck, she entered the entertainment industry and shot her first TV series “Mermaid’s Tear,” gradually gaining a bit of fame. But that little bit of fame had little to do with her; it was purely a stroke of luck. Later, she gradually discovered that Shi Mufeng and Rong Weiwei were secretly in contact, and her attention fixated on whether the two were deceiving her by being together.
Thinking back, she was like a fool at 16, leading an ordinary life and could worry for a whole day about some trivial girl issues.
While at that time, Li Shengxiao had already become a man who commanded power and influence in Capital City, taking control of the Li Group at a young age and becoming a prominent new elite in many people’s eyes!
Rong Yan finished flipping through the last photo and silently put the album back.
Forget it, making these life-sapping comparisons was something she’d rather not do; continuing to compare would only be humiliating herself.
Even now, the gap between her and that man was as vast as the difference between heaven and earth!
After placing the album back in its place, she picked up her notebook, found a spot on the couch, placed the notebook on her lap, and opened the laptop.
