It was true that recently, she did not bother to dress up because she was feeling down. She wore the police uniform all the ti, which did appear to be slightly sloppy and slovenly.
However, people like her, who were naturally endowed with good looks, would still stand out in the crowd even if they were occasionally sloppy with their dressing.
Cheng Jing heard the gossip as well, and she frowned. Just when she was about to give them a good scolding, Nian Xi stopped her at the last second. She wanted to hear more of what they had to say.
The female colleagues obviously did not notice that they were behind them, as they continued with their lively discussion. After all, Nian Xi ca from a well-off family, and she had even managed to find a handso boyfriend like Jiang Yuning, who was the cream of the crop. Thus, people were quite jealous of her in the past.
This was human nature. We would inevitably gloat when misfortune befell upon others who were previously better off than us.
Oh, you an her? Yes, she doesnt look as pretty as before. After all, Nian Xi isnt young anymore, said a female colleague.
Yeah. Shes already so old, and yet shes still unmarried. Now that shes dumped by her boyfriend, who knows when shell be able to marry? So what if she cos from a rich family? She cant get married, another colleague added.
Thats true. I guess its also good to be average like us. But in my opinion, I feel that you cant be too picky even if youre rich. Feng Ji Chuan is so handso, and I heard that he dated Nian Xi for seven to eight years. They had plans to get married, and they had even sent out their wedding invitations. But all of a sudden, she decided not to marry him. While Feng Ji Chuan has said that they broke up because he failed to cherish her, he was such a nice person. Hes also handso and capable, and he ca from a decent family. I think shes the pretentious one, a colleague remarked.
Yes. But do you guys think that maybe shes destined to remain single? Both her previous and current relationships ended like this. I heard that she jinxes her spouse! another colleague said.
No way! a colleague exclaid.
Why would Professor Jiang disappear out of the blue then? I heard that the situation looks grim for him, another colleague remarked.
Nian Xi and Cheng Jing were speechless.
These gossip mongers seriously have nothing better to do! Cheng Jing bellowed. Unable to put up with them any longer, she charged over and slamd her palms on the table. Youre the jinx! Were all in the police force, and yet all of you can still be so superstitious. Why dont you go be a fortune teller instead?
When the female colleagues saw Cheng Jing and Nian Xi, they jumped in fright and turned to flee.
However, Nian Xi grabbed hold of two of them and pressed them down on the chair. She then pointed at one of them and said, I know you. You ca here last year. Youre Tan Qianqian, arent you? You liked Feng Ji Chuan, but he never liked you. Because of that, you bore a grudge against and would badmouth about when you have nothing better to do. I didnt hold it against you in the past since I was in a good mood. But now, a scientist who contributed to our country is missing. Instead of thinking about the case, you dished the dirt on his family and maliciously defad them. Should I report you to the upper managent?
Tan Qianqian jumped in fright, but she then retorted indignantly, Since when did I defa Professor Jiangs family?
Nian Xi sneered coldly and slamd the table, before replying with emphasis on every single word, Im his fiance, so Im his family. Do you have a problem with that?
Tan Qianqian was badly shaken by her aura, and she could only blink her eyes in terror. She had completely forgotten about the fact that a fiance was not an imdiate family mber in the eyes of law.
Besides, you said that Im ugly, Nian Xi added with a chuckle. I still look better than you even if Im ugly. No matter how gorgeous youre dressed, its useless. I still look better than you even when Im dirty and disheveled. Why do you bother to apply makeup at all? No matter how beautiful your makeup is, it cant conceal those flaws of yours, such as your puny eyes, your downturn mouth, and your flat forehead!
Nian Xi, youre too much! Sister Xie, who was slightly older among the girls, shouted.
Shut the hell up. So what if I marry at an older age? Everyone in the police station knows that your husband is a lazy bum. Everyone knows that he keeps a mistress outside, and you can only put up with the humiliation. What rights do you have to criticize others? Nian Xi continued. Sister Xies face turned shockingly red, and she quickly turned around to leave.
