Sister Xue, whose mood had been fine, suddenly pressed the cigar butt onto the sofa armrest. After a sizzling sound, the armrest quickly sported a new hole.
The air was filled with a burnt sll.
The group, who had just been laughing and chatting, all fell silent and exchanged glances.
Nobody knew who was on the phone, but that person had angered Sister Xue to this extent.
Everyone in the circle knew that although Sister Xue wasn’t very capable, she had strong backing.
She was able to bring out two celestial celebrities, all thanks to the power behind her.
Those who wanted to climb up were far from enough to please her, yet there were still fools who managed to make her angry.
Sister Xue did not do well in school in her early days, and when Lang Erping scolded her articulately, she did not understand the aning behind his words at all.
But one thing she did understand was that the person on the phone was scolding her, and definitely not with good intentions.
After all, words like "despicable as a rat," "skin..." and even "death..."
She understood all these; she guessed Lang Erping was surely cursing her to die.
Dare to wish her dead?
It seed she had been too kind to these two, elevating them too high.
With one word from Sister Xue, Lang Erping and Qin Qing’s situation beca even more difficult.
Not to ntion thinking about his Qingqing from his past life, he no longer even had the leisure to think about who that person was.
A mont of indiscretion feels good, the result is the crematorium.
Another troubleso day.
Lang Erping anxiously made calls all day in his room, and when he dragged himself out, he saw Qin Qing wrapped up like a bear, sitting in the living room, eating fruit with the air conditioning on.
Imdiately, his anger exploded uncontrollably.
He stomped over and turned off the air conditioner.
"Don’t keep the air conditioning so low every day, the room is frosting over, and it’s sumr now...."
"I just got a notice to pay the electric bill, and just this month’s bill is almost ten thousand...."
Qin Qing tightened her clothes with a wronged expression, "But if it’s not this low, I’m too hot...."
"Hot? Then don’t wear so many clothes, like it’s winter." Lang Erping irritably ruffled his hair.
Qin Qing couldn’t accept it, tears streaming down, "Husband, how can you say that, aren’t you forcing to die?"
"Do you really want to be like those vulgar won outside, bare arms and wrists?"
Lang Erping suddenly fell silent.
He naturally did not want that, but....
A silent tension spread between them, tears shimred more intensely in Qin Qing’s eyes.
Lang Erping, feeling like escaping, stord out and slamd the door, leaving Qin Qing gasping and crying in the room.
Soon, sweat began to bead on her forehead, dampening the hair on both sides.
With the air conditioning off, the temperature in the room slowly rose, and she couldn’t stand the heat.
After hesitating for a long ti, she finally sobbed and slowly took off the heavy coat.
She was not unaware of their plight.
In her previous life, as the housekeeper, she was best at managing household chores.
But she also felt miserable; as a woman, to live well, she still had to rely on her man.
The Marquis indifferently earned money and still withheld so from her, what was that about?
In that mont, the Marquis who once seed grand and powerful in her heart, no longer stirred her emotions.
It was as if the person she used to look up to had stepped down from the pedestal and had beco like the ordinary people around her.
These two, once praised by the Holy Emperor for their unshakable love as a couple, rely because of so trivial household matters, had developed a rift.
Even in their hearts, both harbored resentnts towards each other.
Qin Qing felt that Lang Erping no longer appealed to her.
Lang Erping felt that Qin Qing was no longer understanding like the Jieyu flower.
That night, Lang Erping did not return ho for the entire night.
The next day, the third day... until the fifth day, Qin Qing finally got in touch with him.
It was unknown what had happened to him during those days, but he seed inexplicably more gloomy and indifferent.
Qin Qing did not dare to speak or ask.
As soon as Lang Erping stepped through the door, Sister Xue followed suit.
Qin Qing keenly sensed a bizarre and strange atmosphere flowing between them.
Sister Xue, unlike her displeasure in the previous days, as if nothing unsightly had transpired among them, cheerfully pulled out a contract.
"Here, I’ve secured this for you, a jewelry advertisent."
At this ti, Qin Qing also did not dare to say that she did not want to accept it.
Lang Erping silently took it.
Sister Xue’s peculiarly widening smile stretched further as she stealthily slapped Lang Erping’s buttocks where Qin Qing couldn’t see.
"You’ve perford very well these past days."
Lang Erping, seething but unable to voice his anger, clenched his fingernails tightly into his flesh, but remained silent.
He had never thought about selling his charm, just never imagined that this woman would drug him...
Qin Qing noticed the increasingly off atmosphere between her husband and Sister Xue and looked over with furrowed brows and wariness.
Realizing Qin Qing’s probing gaze, for the first ti, Lang Erping fiercely glared back at her.
Qin Qing: "..."
She had her suspicions, but dared not think further, only managing to rigidly divert her gaze.
The location Sister Xue secured for the jewelry advertisent shoot was in Country F.
Without much delay, the couple had to pack and leave overnight.
Throughout the trip, this once affectionate couple did not exchange a single word, and even walked with a distance between them, like two strangers who did not know each other.
On the day before they arrived at the airport in Country F, Su Li, too, dragged her suitcase, and walked out from the airport.
Regardless of which parallel "small world" it was, there was a nation akin to this one.
Romantic, beautiful... filled with an artistic aura.
Choosing this place was sothing the Su couple considered for a long ti.
Considering its rich cultural atmosphere, it was undoubtedly a great place to unwind.
Mom Su even cheerfully thought, perhaps her daughter might have a romantically unforgettable encounter.
After all, her girl was so beautiful, so attractive, that even in a foreign land, she would captivate many.
Though foreigners and locals have different aesthetic standards, appreciation of beauty is universally common.
Indeed, as Mom Su had thought, right when Su Li exited the airport, she received several roses from tall, romantic n of Country F.
What was amusing yet perplexing was that won also expressed their keen interest in her.
Following the detailed guide prepared by Daddy and stowed in her suitcase, Su Li checked in at several popular spots.
At each location, she would send photos back to her parents, letting them share in the joy.
So entangled destinies are always bound to follow.
On the last day of her trip, Su Li encountered those two old acquaintances on the streets of this passionate country.
