Tang Xi stord out of the private room, cursing under her breath the whole way. Blinded by rage, she didn’t even pay her bill!
As she reached the entrance of the café, a figure suddenly flashed in. Tang Xi, not seeing clearly, bumped squarely into the newcor.
In just an instant, the person pushed her away. Tang Xi stumbled, twisting her ankle!
Although not seriously injured, it hurt trendously.
This caused her anger to explode. "Are you blind?!"
Being bumped into was bad enough, but then he pushed her away! It was as if he were treating her like a disease.
Qin Jinchuan, who had been bumped into, was already in a foul mood. Seeing Tang Xi start cursing made a dangerous glint flash in his eyes.
"Miss Tang Xi?" Recognizing her, he spoke, his voice laced with nace.
Hearing his words, Tang Xi froze, montarily speechless.
Damn it! I was so furious with that scoundrel Jiang Bo that I completely forgot to put on my disguise when I ca out.
Subconsciously, she reached into her bag for her sunglasses.
Qin Jinchuan snorted. "You bump into soone and then dare to curse at them? Is this your public image?"
Tang Xi’s breathing grew heavy as she donned her sunglasses and looked at Qin Jinchuan.
I originally wanted to hit back with a sharp retort. But when I saw clearly it was soone from the Qin family, I forced myself to swallow the words on the tip of my tongue. The Qin family...! If I provoke this family, life will beco very difficult. Ye Yuning’s recent experiences are proof enough! And this business with Jiang Bo is already so annoying.
Her mind spun with a thousand thoughts; Tang Xi didn’t want to stir up more trouble at this mont.
Lowering her head, she managed an apology, "Oh, it’s Eldest Young Master Qin. My apologies!"
Qin Jinchuan had already picked up the docunt she had dropped. Truth be told, despite his disagreeable nature, so of his actions were quite gentlemanly.
However, when Tang Xi rembered what docunt had fallen to the ground, she instinctively reached out to snatch it back.
But Qin Jinchuan dodged her hand. "A paternity test? Your children aren’t your ex-husband’s? Is this why you divorced?"
I can’t believe I just stumbled upon such huge gossip! Qin Jinchuan thought, inwardly stunned.
Hearing that the children weren’t her ex-husband’s, Tang Xi’s face stiffened for a mont. Her previously subservient deanor began to crumble.
With a less-than-pleasant tone, she said, "Give it back to ."
Qin Jinchuan sneered and contemptuously thrust the docunt at her, his tone clearly disdainful.
Tang Xi didn’t argue with him, mainly because she couldn’t afford to.
Swallowing her anger, she turned and left.
「...」
Qin Zijian was already waiting in the private room.
Seeing Qin Jinchuan enter, he smiled. "What took you so long? When you called, didn’t you say you were at the door?"
"Ran into a little sothing," Qin Jinchuan said, taking off his coat.
As Qin Zijian took out so docunts and placed them on the table, he asked, "What kind of ’sothing’ could you run into here?"
"Bumped into Tang Xi. Guess what I saw?" A spark of gossip lit up Qin Jinchuan’s eyes.
Qin Zijian’s eyelids twitched. "Is she here having an affair?"
Qin Jinchuan offered no imdiate comnt.
"For people in that circle, it’s hardly surprising," Qin Zijian continued, his tone clearly biased against Tang Xi.
People say one shouldn’t judge without knowing the full story. Yet, these two n not only passed judgnt but were also gossiping eagerly.
Qin Jinchuan chuckled. "Not that. Her two kids aren’t her ex-husband’s!"
"What? Not her ex-husband’s?" Qin Zijian was shocked. He then remarked, "When they divorced, she played the victim, acting as if she’d been subjected to dostic abuse."
Many had seen the photo Tang Xi released at the ti explaining her reasons for the divorce.
Qin Zijian tsked. "It’s true what they say: pitiful people often have a detestable side."
Back then, I even thought that with Tang Xi’s status in the industry, if her standing in her family was truly that low, then choosing divorce was the right decision for her! Who would have thought this woman wasn’t decent at all. So that was the reason for her alleged dostic abuse! What man could tolerate that?
Qin Jinchuan advised, "You should keep your distance from that woman you’re seeing, too!"
Qin Zijian had recently grown close to a woman from that sa circle, and Qin Jinchuan was reminding him.
Qin Zijian dismissed it with a laugh. "It’s just for fun. Don’t you worry your head about it."
Hearing that Qin Zijian was just playing around, Qin Jinchuan naturally said no more.
The people in that circle are a complete ss! It’s best to stay far away from them.
"Here’s the evidence you asked for," Qin Zijian said, pushing the folder toward Qin Jinchuan.
The two quickly changed the subject, no longer discussing Tang Xi.
But as soon as Qin Jinchuan heard the word "evidence," his expression turned serious.
「...」
If Tang Xi’s current situation was vexing, Ye Yuning’s was even more so. As long as her bleeding persisted day after day, Xiao Linye definitely wouldn’t give up on taking her to the hospital.
But how on earth am I supposed to go? That’s the huge problem!
"Ugh! This is so frustrating!" Ye Yuning was truly at her wit’s end.
I can dodge it today, but I can’t dodge it tomorrow! Oh, Seventh Master Xiao, how did I ever get mixed up with you? Ye Yuning felt like she was going crazy.
She sohow made it through the workday. The mont Xiao Linye picked her up that evening, Ye Yuning felt like crying.
Before I knew his true identity, I didn’t feel this way.
Now that she knew his identity, an inexplicable fear arose in Ye Yuning’s heart whenever she saw him.
She... was terrified!
