Capítulo 1392: Chapter 541: Good Girl (Part 2)
But she didn’t want to ask that man for help anymore.
Years ago, when her mother was hospitalized because he indulged in a lavish lifestyle outside, and eventually passed away, she developed an intense dislike for him and decided to sever ties when she grew up.
Although over the years, Sun Xining’s thinking beca less extre, she still preferred not to ask him for anything unless absolutely necessary.
Although… every ti she saw those overdue bills, they surely made her quite frustrated.
She’s still using an iPhone 14, its screen showing several scratches, the edges slightly damaged; she’s even thought about getting a new phone recently, but she’s a bit strapped at the mont.
What’s most frustrating for Sun Xining is knowing that if she wanted, she could escape this predicant in an instant and return to that previous lifestyle filled with vanity.
Since coming to Peng City, n like Brother Chen in her departnt are definitely not just one or two; even the neighboring company has a vice president pursuing her, and there are more accomplished n as well.
If Sun Xining wanted to put in a bit of effort and tactics, she knew she would never have to worry about money.
But she’s long tired of that old lifestyle, so she continues to persevere.
Even though… she often feels confused and uncertain.
“I fell in love with you secretly but dared not tell you because I knew I couldn’t give you what you want…”
The sudden ringtone snapped Sun Xining back from her thoughts; she glanced down, furrowed her brow slightly, hesitated for a mont, then pressed the answer button.
“Hello?”
“Ningning, it’s .”
On the other end, Sun Liancheng spoke with a sowhat ingratiating tone, “It’s the weekend, are you still sleeping? I called you several tis before and you didn’t answer…”
“Is there sothing you need?”
Sun Xining did not explain, just interrupted her father.
Sun Liancheng seed accustod to her attitude and showed no displeasure, just continued with a laugh, “I was just worried since you hadn’t replied to my ssages, thinking maybe you’re alone in Peng City and we should keep in touch sotis…”
“If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll hang up.”
“Don’t, don’t!”
Sun Liancheng quickly said, “Ningning, consider this a request from your father, just chat with for a few minutes, I really don’t have anyone else to talk to…”
Listening to Sun Liancheng’s slightly pleading tone, Sun Xining felt a touch of softness, but didn’t show it, rely pursed her lips and asked coldly, “Have you been drinking again?”
“You can’t falsely accuse your dad, I really haven’t drunk in a long ti.”
Seeing Sun Xining hadn’t really hung up, Sun Liancheng breathed a sigh of relief, laughed, and said, “Tonight just happens to be your Uncle Zhou hosting dinner due to a job transfer, I only drank a few cups…”
“Which Uncle Zhou?”
“It’s Zhou Wang’s dad, your high school classmate, I told you before…”
Upon hearing the confirmation, Sun Xining’s heart beat faster for no reason, but she still feigned nonchalance and asked, “So did you et Zhou Wang?”
“Of course not; Xiao President Zhou is quite the figure now, I hear his enterprises are nationwide, can’t easily make an appearance… I just heard Old Zhou ntion him, there’s always so sentintality.”
Sun Liancheng said with a sigh, “I heard his nomination materials have been sent to the province, after the New Year, he won’t just be one of the city’s top ten outstanding youths but elevated to the provincial level…”
Sun Liancheng rambled on about many things, but Sun Xining never responded, nor did she hang up; she simply listened quietly.
Sun Liancheng understood his daughter, continuing to dive into the topic.
Actually, he had already noticed before, that his daughter, who never wanted to speak to him much, exhibited a bit more patience when the subject involved Zhou Wang or related thes.
Which is quite normal, after all Zhou Wang is such an excellent young man, Sun Liancheng thought even as a woman, it would be hard not to like him…
“So Ningning, do you still keep in touch? I rember last ti you ntioned you were quite familiar with each other…”
“Why are you asking that?”
Feeling inexplicably annoyed and restless, Sun Xining replied sowhat irritably, “We used to be quite familiar, but since you wanted to find a proper job, our contact has long ceased…”
“I was rely asking casually…”
“No more talk, I’m hanging up.”
Sun Xining hung up the phone, looked at the ti; it was already six in the evening. She vaguely felt she’d forgotten sothing but couldn’t recall what it was.
At this mont, her phone rang again, and upon noticing the caller, she finally rembered. She straightened up, her young and beautiful form glowing with an ivory hue under the setting sun.
“Hello~”
Following brief adjustnt, Sun Xining’s voice turned soft and raspy, with a faint touch of laziness, tickling the heart of the young man on the other end of the line.
“Ningning, it’s , Ah Gui. Are you ready? We’re heading out to pick you up now…”
“Where are we going?”
“Uh, did you forget? We planned to join a yacht party today… the one Young Master Jie talked to you about; he said you agreed.”
Finally confirming she hadn’t forgotten, Sun Xining replied, stepping lightly and barefoot out of bed toward the bathroom, “Of course I didn’t forget, I just wasn’t feeling well…”
“Co on, Ningning, you know how Ah Jie is, he invited you so many tis and you never ca. It’s rare that you agreed once; if you bail again, he will be furious…”
Ah Jie said in a low, urgent tone.
Standing in front of the mirror arranging her hair, Sun Xining’s lips curled slightly, showing a faint tone of helplessness:
“Alright, but I just took so dication and feel weak, I’ll need to take my ti, can you wait for ?”
“Of course, we can…”
Nearly two hours later.
Ah Jie and Ah Gui finally saw Sun Xining arriving fashionably late.
Ah Jie was initially very impatient, had it not been for Ah Gui calming him down, he feels he would have already driven off.
But upon seeing Sun Xining, Ah Jie felt the long wait had been worth it…
A standard oval face, almond-shaped eyes, porcelain smooth skin almost free of visible pores, reflecting a soft filter; long, slightly wavy hair naturally falling upon her slender exposed waist.
The low-rise jeans created a natural hourglass figure, with a sparkling star-shaped ornant at the small of her back attracting the gaze of the two young n, involuntarily swallowing hard.
In Ah Jie’s eyes at this mont, the radiant Sun Xining surpassed the four girls he saw at the airport that day, even excelling beyond them.
Mainly because the girl in front of Ah Jie carried a halo…
Born in a small inland town, coming from a middle-class family, an innocent background, recently graduated and started working in Peng City; she’s a flawless pure gem, untouched by his gifts or nurous invitations, never responding.
She is truly a gem hard to find in today’s society!
Definitely superior to those four vain girls at the airport…
Sun Xining glanced at the rcedes G-Class before her, nodded slightly with approval, then suddenly dazed.
He seed to have a car like this too…
Coming to her senses, Sun Xining opened the rear car door and sat in the backseat of the rcedes G-Class as a refreshing fragrance diffused through the car.
“Sorry for keeping you waiting, are we already late?”
By this ti, Ah Jie had long discarded his earlier impatience, shaking his head with a smile:
“Don’t worry, today’s party is rather special; those people won’t arrive so early. We’re right on ti going now…”
