727 She was not Reconciled
Shen Hanxing fell silent. Putting herself in her shoes, she would feel uncomfortable if she were to live in soone else’s house all the ti, no matter how easy-going the owner was. How could she live comfortably in a place that was not her own? Moreover, the gap between the Ji Family’s and Qiao Xi’s lives was like a chasm, and it was not a good thing for her to keep experiencing this gap. She pitied Qiao Xi’s previous experience and was grateful for her help. She was afraid that it would be unsafe for her to live alone, so she had invited her to stay with the Ji Family. Now that she thought about it, her good intentions might not have been what Qiao Xi wanted.
“I’ll find ti to talk to Qiao Xi.” Shen Hanxing had never been a stubborn person, and she was very good at accepting other people’s opinions. “The conditions of the dormitory at Starry Foundation are not bad. She can make more friends by living with her colleagues. I’ll ask her if she wants to move in.” As she thought about this, she couldn’t help but smile. She shook her head and said, “I’m afraid that Qiao Xi has been thinking about this for a long ti, but she didn’t dare to tell . If there’s no problem, I’ll let her move into the dormitory in a few days.”
After all, humans were social animals. Qiao Xi’s personality would only beco more cheerful if she were to integrate into society and other people’s social circles. She would then be able to face life better. Ji Yan did not care about Qiao Xi’s thoughts, nor did he care if she could integrate into society. He only cared that Shen Hanxing had been convinced by him, and there was one less person in the family who would fight with him for his wife. This realization made him very happy, so he casually agreed and the corners of his lips curled up. “Alright, I’ll listen to Madam.”
Shen Hanxing glanced at Ji Yan and noticed that he was smiling faintly with his brows lowered. Her heart skipped a beat. She hooked her arm around the collar of his shirt and pulled him closer to her. She did not need to exert much force and Ji Yan naturally followed her pull and bowed to her without any resistance. Who would have thought that the arrogant and high-and-mighty Ji Yan would have such a mont of obedience? Shen Hanxing could not help but smile. She tiptoed and kissed the corner of Ji Yan’s lips. “Good night, Mr. Ji.”
!!
“Good night, Madam.” Ji Yan’s gaze softened and he returned Shen Hanxing a gentle good night kiss.
Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing, who had gone back to their respective rooms, did not notice Qiao Xi who was standing at the corner of the stairs with a pale face. Her eyes were dull and listless. When she heard the door close, she bit her thumb hard, her eyes filled with anxiety. Was she about to be driven away? They won’t let her continue to live with the Ji Family? Once she left the Ji Family, she would return to her ordinary life in this bustling city. S City was so big and had such a large population. If she was the most ordinary one, would she still have the chance to see Ji Yan? Would she be able to co into contact with him again? Then would Ji Yan really beco the bright moon in the sky, visible but unattainable, and she would never have the chance to touch it again? As soon as she thought of this possibility, Qiao Xi’s heart ached terribly. She could not accept such a cruel reality. In her entire life, she had only t Ji Yan, this “bright moon”! Could it be that she could only watch as they drifted further and further away from each other, and could only forever treat him as a beautiful dream?
She clearly had a long life ahead of her, but at that mont, Qiao Xi felt as if she could see the end of her life with a single glance. The despair and helplessness she felt made her feel anxious and all sorts of negative emotions welled up in her heart. She even bit her finger, a habit which she had long since gotten rid of, unconsciously. A strong emotion flickered in her eyes. She didn’t want to leave, or rather, she didn’t want to give up on Ji Yan. Lowering her eyes, Qiao Xi didn’t stay any longer. She grabbed her glass of water and turned to enter her room.
Early next morning, Shen Hanxing was awoken by her phone’s ringing. She was still half-awake and lay lazily on the bed, not wanting to move. However, her phone rang again after it had finished its first ti, seemingly persistent.
“Hello?” Shen Hanxing had no choice but to pick up the call. “Who is it?”
“You still know how to answer the phone?” An irascible voice drowned out Shen Hanxing’s voice. Shen Yong seed to have no idea how to speak properly as he said in a low voice, “”How many tis have I called you? Do I have to urge you repeatedly before you answer the phone? You’re so arrogant!”
“What are you trying to say exactly?” Shen Hanxing furrowed her brows. She was still drowsy, and her mood instantly turned sour after being shouted at by Shen Yong. “I don’t have ti to listen to you scold people. I’ll give you one minute. If you still continue to scold people, then don’t say anything.”
