Chapter 32 Wounds under the Brightness
Zhang Xinxin’s eyes widened, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears. Despite the burning pain on her face, she said nothing, bent down, and began picking up the scattered items on the ground.
Seeing this, a trace of regret and heartache flashed across Zhang Jian Country’s face. He stepped forward to stop her, saying, "Oh dear, what are you doing? You don’t need to pick these up. Go back to your company quickly!"
Zhang Xinxin forcefully shook off his hand, and stubbornly continued picking up the water bottles and fruits on the ground, putting them back into the basket, and holding it tightly.
"What are you doing? Are you planning to help me carry them home??"
Zhang Jian Country anxiously and angrily said, "It’s still two or three kilometers to go back. How can you, a young girl, manage that? Put it down quickly! Put it down!"
Zhang Jian Country tried hard to pull Zhang Xinxin’s hand, but somewhere from within, Zhang Xinxin found the strength to shake him off and clenched her teeth as she walked forward.
The onlookers around watched the fashionable and beautiful Zhang Xinxin carrying a shabby basket, followed by an anxious and angry middle-aged man, and they all looked on curiously, whispering among themselves.
Noticing his daughter being the topic of gossip, Zhang Jian Country became increasingly anxious and was about to snatch the basket from Zhang Xinxin when he was suddenly interrupted by a sharp horn sound beside him.
Neither of them initially wanted to pay attention to the horn, but the sound kept blaring, which was quite irritating, so they frowned and turned to look.
"Li..."
Zhang Xinxin’s expression changed when she saw, and just as she was about to speak, she realized her father was beside her and forced the words back down her throat.
