Chapter 692: A Daydream Turns into a Nightmare
"Why are you crying?" Shen Hanxing sighed helplessly. Through her tears, Qiao Xi saw Shen Hanxing pass her a piece of tissue. She then patted her shoulder and said gently, "The past is the past. You have to look forward, understand?"
"I know, I’m just happy..." Qiao Xi nodded hard and choked. "I’m so happy, Mrs. Ji. Thank you..." The best thing she had ever done in her life was to give Shen Hanxing directions. She never thought that the thing she had mustered up her courage to do would give her a new life. She looked at Shen Hanxing through her tears. Her heart was filled with admiration, envy, bitterness, and despair. Mrs. Ji was really beautiful and warm. She was like a glowing object that people could not help but chase after. It was no wonder that she could attract an outstanding man like President Ji. Shen Hanxing’s elegance, confidence, and calmness were things that she would never be able to imitate in her entire life. No matter how hard she tried to get close to her, she would only be imitating her.
At that moment, Qiao Xi suddenly felt so ashamed that she couldn’t stay any longer. She covered her face with the documents and lowered her head, saying in a low voice, "It’s getting late. I won’t disturb Mrs. Ji’s rest. I’ll take my leave first..." She hurriedly turned around as if she was escaping.
Shen Hanxing shook her head with a smile. Qiao Xi’s personality made her feel inferior and shy easily. She was also sensitive and thoughtful. She hoped that Qiao Xi could interact with more people and experience more things at the foundation so that she could improve on that.
Qiao Xi’s hangover soup was pretty good. Shen Hanxing had a good night’s sleep after drinking it. When she woke up the next day, the sky was bright.
"Sister-in-law, you’re awake?" When Ji Qian saw Shen Hanxing coming down the stairs, her eyes sparkled with joy and she ran over hurriedly. "Sister-in-law, how was the wedding yesterday?"
"What do you mean by ’How was it’? What else can a wedding be like?" Shen Hanxing asked in confusion.
Ji Qian’s question was really strange. She didn’t seem like someone who was interested in these things. Could it be that a small news agency had reported yesterday’s incident?
