After leaving Liang Lei’s house, Chen Ningxi asked in the elevator, "Did you co to pick up for sothing specific?"
Cheng Qiaobei glanced sideways. He always wanted to protect her, yet things had escalated into a public scandal.
"Let’s talk at ho."
"..." It seed there really was sothing.
Chen Ningxi had set her phone to silent while at Liang Lei’s house, and now calls kept coming in from her bag.
He Yunyi’s friend sent him a link, followed by a ssage: Luckily, you didn’t end up with her back then, or you’d be the one suffering now.
A completely out-of-context remark, He Yunyi didn’t realize until he opened the link. But his first reaction was that it was fake news.
He Yunyi: Spreading false information is illegal.
The other person replied: It’s true, absolutely, I’ve checked.
He Yunyi’s face darkened, but he was more worried about Chen Ningxi.
He Yunyi: If I find out you’re spreading this to others, we’ll stop being friends.
The other person replied; I’m just trying to help, don’t misunderstand.
He Yunyi: If you really wanted to help, you wouldn’t have said what you did.
He Yunyi: She’s just sick, not committed a cri, so shut your mouth.
The person repeatedly apologized, and He Yunyi stopped responding, focusing instead on worrying about Chen Ningxi.
He thought about ssaging her to ask but decided to call instead, figuring she must be getting a lot of ssages.
But the calls wouldn’t go through, which made He Yunyi even more anxious.
He contacted an old schoolmate at Danjiang Hospital, Zhang Duo, and confird Chen Ningxi’s condition was real.
Both were deeply moved because she was so outstanding, no one expected fate to deal her such a blow.
At the sa ti, Guo Heming saw the news and maliciously comnted under the post: I’m fortunate to know the woman involved. She’s very scheming. To get rid of her fiancé and be with her current husband, she set him up, secretly fild her fiancé, and now soone’s finally exposing her. Her family has high-ranking officials, be careful with your comnts.
First comnt: Damn, set up her fiancé? Didn’t she cheat then?
Guo Heming replied to the first comnt: Not just cheating, she played around quite a bit. And indeed, she aborted her fiancé’s child.
Second comnt: Secretly fild her fiancé? She’s into that?
Guo Heming replied to the second comnt: That’s not her only kink.
Third comnt: Exciting, I like it, but I’m afraid of getting sick. Hahaha...
Guo Heming replied to the third comnt: Use protection.
Fourth comnt: How do you know so much? Were you lucky enough to ss around with her?
Guo Heming replied to the fourth comnt: Haha, no comnt.
Fifth comnt: How’s her skill?
Guo Heming replied to the fifth comnt: Like the popular review said, you think a young person could beco a manager without any skill?
Sixth comnt; Truly a ’talented’ individual.
Guo Heming replied to the sixth comnt: Quite the complint, sir.
Guo Heming single-handedly pushed his comnt into the top few hot comnts.
Lu Xingyan was playing a ga when a ssage popped up on his phone, which he ignored at first, but then a call ca in.
He held the phone between his shoulder and head, "What’s up?"
ng Jingbo: "Quick, look at the link I sent you."
"Wait, I’m gaming." Lu Xingyan clicked rapidly, the keyboard clacking.
ng Jingbo urged, "It’s about your little sister, aren’t you going to look?"
"!" Lu Xing bit stopped, "Manager Chen? What’s up with Manager Chen?"
"Ah, just see for yourself."
ng Jingbo hung up, and Lu Xingyan picked up his phone to check the link. Initially, he didn’t believe it.
Lu Xingyan: It’s fake.
ng Jingbo: Dude, look at the hospital diagnosis, who would dare fake this?
Lu Xingyan exited, zood in on the diagnosis. He didn’t really understand, but the words uterus and fallopian tubes were clearly for a woman’s checkup report.
ng Jingbo: Xingyan, your opportunity has co.
Lu Xingyan frowned: What for?
ng Jingbo: She’s under a lot of pressure now; her husband must be mad at her too. Go comfort her, bring so wine, you might sleep with her tonight.
ng Jingbo: No need for protection, her condition makes it fine. Haha, you’ll enjoy it.
Lu Xingyan, disgusted by the vulgar words on the screen, cursed at ng Jingbo: "ng Jingbo, F**K YOU, from today we’re not brothers anymore, stay as far away as possible."
After cursing, he hung up, instantly blocked the number, and deleted it on WeChat.
He opened the company’s group chat, it was quiet, with the last ssage from Chen Ningxi about the orders from the power company, asking them to post it on Monts.
He clicked on Chen Ningxi’s WeChat, typed: Manager Chen, are you okay?
He thought about it and deleted it, then retyped: Manager Chen, don’t take it to heart,
Finding it all nonsense, he exited WeChat, scrolling the contact list to the na starting with C, staring at the three characters of Chen Ningxi’s na, his finger hesitant to press.
Too worried about her, he eventually pressed to call.
His heart raced, unsure of what to say once connected, how to comfort her.
The phone rang for a long ti, until it automatically hung up.
Lu Xingyan recalled what ng Jingbo said, her husband might be mad at her, his mind wandered with all sorts of thoughts. But if her husband divorced her...
Still young, in his first impulsive and infatuation phase of life, Lu Xingyan t Chen Ningxi.
He believed that love ant being willing to give it all for soone.
Lu Xingyan called his mother, the first thing he said was: "Mom, what if I marry a divorced woman?"
Lv Jianglan felt a buzzing in her ears, "What nonsense, you’re interested in soone divorced? Why did she divorce? How old is she?"
Lu Xingyan faltered, "A few years older, not too many."
Lv Jianglan rubbed her aching temples, trying to stay calm to learn who she was, and persuade him.
"How’d you two et?"
Lu Xingyan: "We work at the sa place."
"What’s her na?"
"Tell if it’s okay first."
"I need to know about her, her character, and why she divorced?" Lv Jianglan questioned.
Lu Xingyan stopped speaking.
"Xingyan, if you don’t tell why she divorced, I can’t agree."
Lu Xingyan trusted Lv Jianglan too much, "She...has so fertility issues."
Lv Jianglan nearly fainted from anger, "Lu Xingyan, are you trying to kill ? Marrying a divorced woman is one thing, but one who can’t have kids? Why would you want her? Even a hen needs to lay eggs, what’s the point of marrying her? How far have you two gone?"
Lu Xingyan: "Mom, calm down, we haven’t gone far."
Lv Jianglan shouted: "I’m telling you, Xingyan, this woman is definitely no good."
Lu Xingyan opposed Lv Jianglan for the first ti, shouting: "What you say doesn’t count, I want to, if you don’t let marry her, we’ll sever mother-son ties, and I won’t co ho anymore."
He hung up, tossing the phone onto the bed.
...
After getting ho, Cheng Qiaobei led her to the living room, letting her sit down, just as Chen Weichuan called.
Cheng Qiaobei glanced at the number, "Dad, her phone might have been on silent in her bag and she didn’t hear."
Chen Ningxi realized her phone was on silent the whole ti, she wanted to reach for it at the entrance but Cheng Qiaobei held her back.
Cheng Qiaobei answered the call, unconsciously squeezing her fingertips, "Hmm, no, still don’t know... okay, Dad, I’ll get back to you later."
