Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Almost Fell for It
Editor: Atlas Studios
“I know you.” The other person smiled, “Oh, by the way, let introduce myself. My na is Xia Xinyu, and I am Jingyao’s fiancée.”
Su Zixi’s eyes widened suddenly, and her right hand loosened, causing the delicate gift bag to fall to the ground with a thud.
“Heh…” Xia Xinyu chuckled softly, “Don’t be afraid, I’m not here to settle scores with you. A man like Jingyao, how can a woman resist him?”
Su Zixi felt a buzzing in her head. She clenched her fist and lowered her eyes, saying, “Miss Xia, I’m very sorry, I didn’t know…”
“You don’t need to apologize.” Xia Xinyu sighed softly, “Rest assured, I don’t oppose your relationship. Even if I marry Jingyao in the future, you need not worry about .”
Su Zixi looked at her in disbelief.
“Jingyao and I have a typical arranged marriage. Although I like him very much, he has no interest in …” Xia Xinyu smiled bitterly, “I ca to see what kind of woman he fancies. Also, a piece of advice, before I give birth to Jingyao’s first son, you better not get pregnant. Otherwise, Mrs. He might be unhappy. It wouldn’t be good for you.”
Xia Xinyu’s words sounded like sothing from a TV drama—absurd and unreal.
Is this what high society is like? Even marriage doesn’t an loyalty to one another.
Su Zixi felt her mind in a turmoil.
She still didn’t understand why He Jingyao was so interested in her, but she knew very well that she could never accept such a role…
“Miss Xia, you misunderstood.” She heard her own stiff voice, “I don’t have that kind of relationship with Mr. He. I also will… Don’t worry, I will avoid eting Mr. He as much as possible in the future.”
Xia Xinyu looked troubled, “If you say that, Jingyao will surely bla . This wasn’t my intention…”
“I won’t say anything.” Su Zixi gritted her teeth and said, “I’m sorry. I’ll be leaving now.”
After saying that, she turned and walked into the campus, leaving the delicate gift bag behind.
Xia Xinyu quietly watched her back for a long ti before smiling faintly.
She walked over, picked up the gift bag, and looked a bit lancholic.
She hadn’t expected there to be another woman Jingyao could connect with. If the elders of the He Family knew, what would her engagent to He Jingyao an?
Moreover, this engagent was originally arranged by both sets of parents. He Jingyao had never accepted it. Even before Su Zixi appeared, the possibility of her marrying He Jingyao was very slim, let alone now.
Luckily, that woman knew nothing.
Xia Xinyu stood there for a mont before getting into her car, starting it, and driving away in a cloud of dust.
…
When Su Zixi returned to the dormitory, her mind was still in a daze.
She hadn’t expected that Mr. He already had a fiancée. So, what did she an to him? A re plaything?
Thinking about it made her nose tingle, and she felt a mix of sadness, grievance, and anger.
If He Jingyao’s fiancée hadn’t appeared in ti today, she might have eventually fallen for Mr. He.
As a child, she hated infidelity in marriage because of Su Guo’an’s betrayal. Even if He Jingyao and Xia Xinyu’s marriage didn’t require loyalty to each other, she would never be the one to intervene.
She decided she would never have any contact with He Jingyao again!
Su Zixi made this resolution in her heart, but instead of feeling relieved, it just made her… feel even more miserable.
