When Xia Ning woke up the next morning, she found herself lying on a fair and strong arm. She instantly recalled what happened last night. They made up just like that. It was unbelievable, but it seemed to make sense.
Feeling the warm skin pressing against her body, she shifted uncomfortably. Even though they had shared the same bed for quite some time, this was the first time they had been intimate in more than two months. Furthermore, they had played until very late last night. Thinking about some of the scenes from the previous night, she felt a little uncomfortable.
The moment she moved, Qiao Yu moved as well. He pulled her closer and hugged her tightly.
It was already hot in the summer, and it was even hotter when she hugged him.
Xia Ning wanted to push him away, but she couldn ‘t. She felt helpless.
At this time, Qiao Yu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her,””You’re awake?”
“Yes.” Xia Ning responded and said a little unnaturally,”it’s a little hot, you …”
“Let me hug you to sleep for a while. I’ll carry you to take a shower later.” Qiao Yu said as he closed his eyes.
Xia Ning was speechless. She stared at the ceiling, speechless. Who asked him to carry her to the shower?
Under normal circumstances, he would cause a scene again.
“I have a meeting in the morning. I have to get up now.” Xia Ning said in a low voice. There was a regular meeting at the huaining group today.
Hearing this, Qiao Yu opened his eyes and looked up. He suddenly stood up, and before Xia Ning could react, he carried her in his arms and walked towards the bathroom.
Xia Ning panicked a little when she suddenly lost her cover. She said loudly,””What are you doing!”
“Take a bath!” Being concise and comprehensive was Qiao Yu’s usual style.
The shower took an hour. When Xia Ning came out, she looked at the man behind her and couldn’t help but call him a hooligan. She then went straight to the cloakroom.
Qiao Yu watched as she left and couldn’t help but smile. His expression was filled with satisfaction. This morning was not bad.
By the time Xia Ning came downstairs after changing her clothes and putting on makeup, Qiao Yu had already prepared breakfast.
Xia Ning walked over and took a bite of the sandwich. She heaved a sigh of relief. She was really hungry.
“I’m going home tonight!” Qiao ran came over with two glasses of milk and handed one to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning’s expression froze. She looked at Qiao Yu, who was also looking at her, waiting for her to refute.
“En!” Xia Ning finally gave in. She wanted to see her son.
Seeing that Xia Ning had agreed, Qiao Yu’s heart instantly relaxed. He picked up a piece of bread, spread some jam and cream on it, and placed it on Xia Ning’s plate.
After breakfast, Qiao Yu sent Xia Ning to the huaining Corporation.
The car was parked in a secluded spot with no one around. Xia Ning got out of the car and waved at Qiao ran before walking towards the huaining Corporation building.
Qiao Yu didn’t mind Xia Ning’s cautious behavior anymore, because he still had evidence in other people’s hands. If they were to be exposed now, he was afraid that the photos would be leaked and it would definitely affect Xia Ning.
After a moment of silence, Qiao Yu took out his phone and made a call,”Chen Hong, tell Li Man that I’ve already given her the money. If she says one more word or even half a word wrong, I will make her pay the same price.”
“Do you need me to teach you how to do something as small as letting someone understand their situation?”
Qiao Yu hung up the phone right after he finished speaking. His expression was extremely serious. She was the only one who believed that Li Man and Jin Yan were a couple. There were some things that he couldn’t tell her yet, because he didn’t have any evidence.

NEXT CHAPTER
It was already 10:10 a. M. When Xia Ning arrived at huaining Corporation. Fortunately, the meeting was scheduled to start at 10:30 a. M.
When Xia Ning arrived at the office, Shen Tianlang was already waiting for her. He was sitting on the chair with his head lowered, deep in thought.
“Chairman su!” Qian Feng bowed and greeted her respectfully when he saw Xia Ning enter.
Hearing Qian Feng’s voice, Shen Tianlang immediately stood up and turned to look at Xia Ning. He nodded and said,”Good Morning, Chairman su.”
Xia Ning smiled.”Mr. Shen, have you been waiting for me for a long time?”
“No, I just arrived.” Shen Tianlang replied.
Xia Ning nodded and looked at Qian Feng, who was standing next to her.”How’s the arrangement for today’s meeting?”
“President Shen has made the arrangements,” Qian Feng replied.”We’re just waiting for you, Chairman su. I’ll tell you the process of the meeting and the important things to discuss later.”
Xia Ning nodded and looked at Shen Tianlang.””As expected, the Huai Ning group can’t do without President Shen.”
Shen Tianlang looked at Xia Ning and said sincerely,””Thank you,” he said.
“I don’t need a thank you. I’m a businessman, and I want to see profits.” Xia Ning smiled and said,”I’m looking forward to your performance, President Shen.”
Shen Tianlang nodded seriously.”I won’t let you down.”
“Then let’s prepare for the meeting. Tell me the main points of today’s meeting.” As Xia Ning spoke, she picked up the documents that Qian Feng had prepared on the table.
Qian Feng answered all of Xia Ning’s questions.
Looking at Xia Ning’s skillful movements and calm analysis, Shen Tianlang felt that his cousin was not as simple as he thought. Although she was not in charge of the huaining group, her eyes never left it.
After the meeting, it was already 11:30 pm. Xia Ning chatted with the directors for a while and was about to leave.
Shen Tianlang blocked her way at the elevator.
“What is it?” Xia Ning looked at him and asked in confusion.
“Ke, can you go somewhere with me?” Shen Tianlang asked after some hesitation.
He had called her ‘President su’ in the office earlier, but now he was calling her ‘ke’. This meant that what he wanted her to do was a private matter. Xia Ning looked at Shen Tianlang and asked,”where is it?”
“The nursing home.” Shen Tianlang replied.
Xia Ning looked at him in confusion.”Why are we going to the nursing home?”
“Grandfather wants to see you.” Shen Tianlang explained,”ever since the will was made public, Grandpa moved out of the Shen family’s ancestral house and went to a nursing home.” This was also a financial problem.
Upon hearing this, Xia Ning’s expression turned a little calmer.”You know, I don’t want to see him, and I don’t want to see him.”
“Ke, he’s an elder. Can’t you fulfill his wish?” Shen Tianlang said in a low voice, his eyes full of pain.
Xia Ning looked at Shen Tianlang and sneered.”He’s your elder, but to me, it doesn’t matter whether he’s around or not. Even if my mother was alive, she would have the same attitude as me. We won’t acknowledge him, so why should I go see him?!”
“Ke …” Shen Tianlang tried to persuade her, but Xia Ning had already pressed the elevator button and the door opened.
Shen Tianlang turned around and looked at Xia Ning. He said in a sad voice,””Grandpa is sick, very sick. Maybe this is the last time you can see him.”
Xia Ning stopped in her tracks. Last time? She looked ahead coldly, and the next moment, she walked into the elevator.
In the car, Xia Ning was leaning back in her seat and browsing the news on her phone.
Shen Tianlang looked at her as he drove, his eyes full of gratitude.”Ke, Grandpa will be very happy to see you.”
Xia Ning glanced at him and said,”I don’t know if he’s happy or not, but you’re happy.”
Shen Tianlang smiled without saying anything. He was really happy.
Xia Ning’s gaze returned to her phone screen, which was showing the latest news about Jin Yan.
Recently, she had been busy filming and had finally made the headlines. However, Jin Yan’s side was in an uproar.
Someone had leaked the news that “the season waiting for you” had changed its female supporting role. It was suspected that Jin Yan had a bad relationship with the original female supporting role, Li Man. It was said that in Apple TV’s large-scale variety show “in love, we have to be together”, Jin Yan’s partner had originally been Li Man, but Apple TV had never officially approved it.
As a superstar singer, Jin Yan had a huge fan base. When the news broke, his online fans were instantly agitated.
“Oh my God, it’s Li Man, that B * tch. Back then, Heavenly King Jin decided that she would be the second female lead. I even said that even Heavenly Kings have to accept women who get promoted through unspoken rules. Now, Jin Yan has kicked her out of the production team. How satisfying.”
“I don’t know how many men Li Man slept with to get to where she is today, but she still wants to partner with Heavenly King Jin? What is Apple TV thinking? if she and King Jin are a couple, I won’t watch it. ”
“It’s said that the second female lead is Yang Xin. She has good acting skills, a good character, and no scandals. She’s definitely better than Li Man. I’m really looking forward to the director’s Virgo.”
“I’m really looking forward to King Jin’s variety show. This is his first variety show. I wonder who will be his partner. Let’s have a vote. Who do you guys want to be with him?”
Xia Ning was relieved to see that no one had found out about Jin Yan’s relationship with Li Man. She felt lucky for Jin Yan. Fortunately, his relationship with Li Man had not been exposed. Otherwise, he would have been under a lot of pressure judging from the netizens ‘attitude.
About 40 minutes later, they arrived at the nursing home that Shen Tianlang had mentioned. They drove in and parked the car. Shen Tianlang then brought Xia Ning inside.
Xia Ning followed Shen Tianlang into the house. The weather was nice today and the sun was shining brightly. There were many elderly people sitting on the chairs on both sides of the house, chatting happily.
Shen Tianlang brought Xia Ning to a room on the second floor. As soon as they opened the door, the smell of medicine greeted them. Xia Ning could not help but frown.
“Grandpa, I’m here.” Shen Tianlang walked toward the window as soon as he entered.
As soon as he left, Xia Ning’s vision widened. She looked around the house-there was a bed, a table, a chair, and a small window. It couldn’t be any simpler.
She then looked at Shen Yuanqi, who was lying on the bed. She had not seen him for just over two months, and he had actually become like this. His eyes were sunken, his mouth was half open, his face was dark and thin, and there was a needle inserted into the back of his thin hand, and he was on an intravenous drip.
Who would have thought that the man who had once dominated the business world for so many years would one day be in such a state, living in a small room in a nursing home and waiting for death?
“Ke, Grandpa is calling you.” Shen Tianlang suddenly turned his head and said to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning came back to her senses, glanced at Shen Tianlang, and walked over.
On the bed, Shen Yuanqi’s mouth was half-open, and his turbid eyes were fixed on Xia Ning. He wanted to say something, but his voice was very soft and could not be heard clearly.
Shen Tianlang put his ear to his mouth and said,””Grandpa, what do you want to say? I’m listening.”
“I want to … Talk to … Ke alone.” Shen Yuanqi said in a low voice.
Shen Tianlang knew that Shen Yuanqi wanted to see Xia Ning mostly because of Xia yunning, and most of the things he wanted to talk to her about were related to Xia yunning, so he also understood Shen Yuanqi’s meaning.
As an elder, he could not admit his past mistakes in front of the younger generation.
He nodded and said,”okay, it’s time for lunch. I’ll get you some food.” He then stood up and said to Xia Ning,”Grandpa wants to speak to you in private. Remember to call me if you need anything.”
Xia Ning nodded and Shen Tianlang left.
The door closed, and the room instantly became quiet. Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi on the bed and said nothing. She had nothing to say to him, and she came today because of Shen Tianlang. At the same time, she wanted to see what he was up to.
Shen Yuanqi’s eyes moved slightly and his gaze was fixed on Xia Ning. Seeing that she didn’t speak, he finally spoke first,”Xiao Ke …”
His voice was a little low and hoarse. It wasn’t loud, but it definitely wasn’t as sick as Shen Tianlang had thought. He seemed to be in good spirits.
Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi with a sneer in her eyes. So this was a scam. He lied to Shen Tianlang, and Shen Tianlang naturally lied to her.
“Old master Shen seems to be in good spirits.” Xia Ning pulled out a chair and sat down. She leaned back and looked at Shen Yuanqi.”Why did you call me here?”
Shen Yuanqi sighed, looked at Xia Ning and said in a low voice,””Are you still not willing to call me grandfather?”
“Did I not make myself clear last time? I don’t have a grandfather. ” Xia Ning shifted her gaze away from him, her expression cold and distant.
“I know I’ve let your grandma down, but I don’t have much time left.” Shen Yuanqi sighed.”I have liver cancer, late-stage.”
Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi and sneered,””What does this have to do with me? are you trying to get my sympathy by telling me this? Would the arrogant old master Shen also ask for other people’s pity?”
Shen Yuanqi’s expression darkened and he said in a low voice,””I know you hate me. If I had known that your mother was my child, I wouldn’t have stood by and watched. It was my fault. I let her down.”
The corners of Xia Ning’s lips curled up, but she did not say anything.
If he was still the Supreme old master of the Shen family, and the huaining group was still the Shen family ‘s, would he have said this to her?
In this world, human relationships were often thinner than one would think. There were no eternal family, only eternal interests.
“Ke, Tianlang is a good boy. I’m very happy to hear that you’ve allowed him to return to huaining group.” Shen Yuanqi continued,”that child has been kind from the bottom of his heart. In the past, I was afraid that he would suffer. Now that I think about it, his kindness has helped him. However, he is your cousin after all. If he doesn’t have any shares in the group, I’m afraid he will be looked down upon easily. You see …”
Xia Ning took out her phone from her bag and scrolled through it, but she did not answer.
“I know that you use the name ‘huaining’ to commemorate your grandmother, so I don’t blame you for changing the name of the company.” Shen Yuanqi looked at Xia Ning and said in a low voice,”if your grandmother knew that you and your sister were in charge of the huaining group, she would definitely be happy. She used to look forward to your uncle getting married and having children.”
He didn’t blame her for changing the name of the corporation?
Xia Ning found it funny. She looked up at Shen Yuanqi and a hint of ridicule flashed in her eyes.”It’s just a name change. Do I need to ask for your opinion?” Also, how do you know if my grandma is happy or not? don’t forget that she hates you the most. ”
Shen Yuanqi was stunned, and his muddy eyes moved.”Xiao Ke, do you have to talk to Grandpa like this?”
Xia Ning put away her phone and looked at Shen Yuanqi. She said with a faint smile,””There’s something you need to be clear about. I’m the chairman of the Huai Ning group now, and I decide the future of the group. I have the freedom to make any decision I want. Even if I donate all of the shares under my name to charity one day, that’s my pleasure.”
Shen Yuanqi’s fingers moved, and blood flowed backward in the syringe.
Xia Ning glanced at him. Did he get triggered?
“The needle moved.” She said in a low voice. She took the alcohol cotton on the table and helped him pull out the needle.
Shen Yuanqi looked at Xia Ning’s side profile with a confused expression. He seemed to have thought of something.
Throwing the syringe aside, Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi and sneered,””You’d better take it easy. I don’t want Shen Tianlang and the others to blame me for anything that happens to you.”
“You look so much like your grandmother.” Shen Yuanqi suddenly said.
Xia Ning chuckled.”I’m her granddaughter. Of course I look like her.”
“Your grandma is much gentler than you.”
Xia Ning raised her eyebrows and looked at Shen Yuanqi with interest.”That’s why she met a scumbag.”
Shen Yuanqi’s skinny face stiffened for a moment. He sighed,”if your grandmother was still alive, she would be very happy to have a granddaughter like you.”
Xia Ning did not respond. This old master Shen was really good at enduring. He was not angry even after she had insulted him like that. He was really a smart person.
Shen Yuanqi continued.”If I didn’t do those disgraceful things back then, your grandmother, me, your uncle’s family, your mother, and you would definitely be the most enviable family in the world.”
“There’s a saying that spilled water is hard to retrieve. What has been done is done. ”
Shen Yuanqi seemed to not hear the sarcasm in Xia Ning’s words and continued,””When your uncle was young, he wanted a sister the most. He didn’t know about your mother’s existence, so he put all his attention on Wei Ran.”
“That uncle of mine is really not an ordinary person. He treats the little sister of the mistress as his own sister, but he treats his own sister as an enemy.”
Shen Yuanqi glanced at Xia Ning, who was looking down at her phone. He frowned and sighed,””That’s my fault. Your uncle and your aunt Wei Ran were implicated by me. I’ve spoiled her too much. If you want to blame someone, then blame me. Don’t make things difficult for them. After all, they are your mother’s siblings. ”
“Brothers and sisters?” Xia Ning murmured and looked up at Shen Yuanqi. She said indifferently,”according to blood relations, that seems to be the case.”
Shen Yuanqi’s eyebrows moved and he continued,””Your uncle has suffered a stroke and is now bedridden. He can’t move freely. “Your aunt Wei Ran’s life isn’t easy either. She’s already been punished. She’s divorced and childless. Who knows what will happen to her for the rest of her life? she was young and insensible at that time. Please forgive her. If your mother knows about this, she will agree. After all, we’re a family. There’s no such thing as overnight hatred!”
Xia Ning was suddenly glad that her mother had passed away. If she were to see her father in this state, she would be sad no matter how indifferent she was.
In the end, Shen weiran was raised by his side and doted on for decades. Even if Shen Chuxia was born from his first wife, she was not close to him, so his heart naturally leaned towards the former. Any repentance was fake. His only purpose was to protect Shen weiran.
“We’re a family now. ” Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi and smiled.”I saw a piece of news recently. Ms. Shen weiran isn’t doing as well as she used to be. After she divorced song Bocheng, she couldn’t stand the loneliness and became a mistress. Although her reputation is bad, she definitely doesn’t have to worry about food and clothing. However, the weather isn’t good. She’s just a wild flower that she raised outside. She was accidentally discovered by the first wife. The first wife is also a tough one. Not only did she get someone to beat her up, but she also took a nude photo of her. It had been all over the internet some time ago. It’s a pity that I was in United Kingdom at the time and didn’t have the chance to add fuel to the fire. ”
When Shen Yuanqi heard this, his face instantly turned green. He looked at Xia Ning and said in a deep voice,””She’s your aunt!”
“My mom is your biological daughter.” “Are you going to sacrifice my mother just to protect an illegitimate daughter?” Xia Ning retorted.
“But your mother has already …” Shen Yuanqi wanted to explain, but he swallowed his words when he saw Xia Ning’s expression.
Xia Ning knew what he wanted to say. She stood up and looked down at Shen Yuanqi.”Because my mother is dead, you can ignore all the grievances she has suffered. In fact, you don’t love my grandma that much, or else why would you be so cold to her daughter? all you think about is your Shen group, and you only care about Shen weiran and Chen Donglai. Sometimes, I feel disgusted when I think about it. ”
“Enough!” Xia Ning interrupted him coldly,”I don’t want to hear any nonsense from you. Let me tell you, if you didn’t say this, I might not have bothered with Shen weiran. But now, I’ve decided that I’m going to make her suffer a thousand times.”
“Xiao Ke … Cough, cough …” Shen Yuanqi called Xia Ning. He couldn’t catch his breath and couldn’t stop coughing.
Xia Ning glanced at him and said,”since you’re sick, you should rest well. After all, my grandmother will only be at peace if someone like you is alive. If you’re dead, I’m really afraid that you’ll shamelessly go and look for my grandmother.” As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and left.
“Cough, cough …” Shen Yuanqi covered his mouth and coughed violently. The door opened and closed, blocking all his sounds.
At the top of the stairs, Xia Ning was about to go down when she bumped into Shen Tianlang, who came up with a bowl of porridge.
Xiao Ke, what’s wrong? where are you going?” Shen Tianlang asked.
“We’re done here, I’m going back,”Xia Ning said calmly.
“Ah, Grandpa hasn’t eaten yet. Let’s wait for him to finish eating before we leave. I’ll send you off.”
“No need,” Xia Ning walked past him and left.
Shen Tianlang turned around and shouted at Xia Ning, who was walking down the stairs,””Ke …”
However, Xia Ning completely ignored him and went downstairs in the blink of an eye.
When Shen Tianlang returned to the ward, the nurse was changing Shen Yuanqi’s needle and re-injecting him.
“What’s going on?” He placed the porridge on the table.
The nurse replied,”old master Shen moved a little just now. The needle moved by accident. It’s nothing. Someone pulled it out for him.”
“Yes, thank you.” Shen Tianlang recalled Xia Ning’s cold expression when she left. He then looked at Shen Yuanqi, who was lying on the bed in a daze. He suddenly understood that his grandfather must have said something to make her unhappy again.
Ke’s temper was still as stubborn as ever. Grandpa was sick, couldn’t she just accommodate him?
Xia Ning quickly walked out of the nursing home. She really couldn’t stay there any longer. She was so disgusted by Shen Yuanqi that she was about to throw up.
She could tell that Shen Yuanqi felt that his daughter and son had nothing, so he wanted to play the family card to get something from her. He really did not change.
It was probably because the Shen family’s recent defeat had made his proud heart unable to take it. Even if she threw her money into the sea, she would not leave them a single word.
The area around the nursing home was too remote, and it was noon. Xia Ning waited at the entrance for a long time but still couldn’t get a taxi. She had no choice but to give it a try at the intersection ahead.
As she walked, she took out her phone and dialed Zheng Ziming’s number.
“Ziming, help me check Shen weiran’s movements.”
“What are you doing? I haven’t seen my aunt for a long time, have I?” Xia Ning chuckled.”If I don’t meet her, she might say to others that I don’t respect her.” She hung up the phone and walked to the intersection to wait for a taxi.
After waiting for ten minutes, there was still no taxi. Xia Ning looked up at the sky and the sun was shining brightly in her eyes. She looked at the time and saw that it was already past oneo’ clock, so she decided to walk a little further.
She walked along the road, and after some time, a blue sports car stopped beside her.
“Hey beautiful, are you alone?” A man’s teasing voice came from the car window. The window rolled down, but the driver’s seat was on the left, so the man’s face could not be seen clearly.
Xia Ning frowned and ignored the man, continuing to walk forward.
However, the sports car did not give up and continued to chase after her.
“Beauty, why are you walking by the road alone under such a bright sun? get in the car, big brother will take you to play!” The man in the car continued to speak, his tone becoming more and more frivolous.
Xia Ning continued to ignore him. She turned a corner and the car behind her caught up.
“Beauty, why are you ignoring me? are you afraid that I will bully you?”
Xia Ning suddenly stopped in her tracks and smiled.”Alright, give me a moment.” She walked to the bushes and bent down as if she was looking for something.
Hearing Xia Ning’s words, the person in the car couldn’t help but snicker smugly.”You’ll be teased one day too!”
He looked at Xia Ning, who was standing outside the car, and saw that she had already stood up and was walking towards him. He smirked and unlocked the car door. Just as he was about to show off to her, he heard a loud crash on the car door and the car shook.
Bang! Something fell to the ground. The next moment, he saw Xia Ning clapping her hands and walking forward.
What’s going on? why aren’t you coming up? And what else was going on! The person in the car got out and turned to look at the other door.
It didn’t matter if he didn’t look, but the moment he saw it, his entire face turned green. F * ck, did he have to be so ruthless! There was a big hole in the back of the blue car. It had obviously been hit by a heavy object, and the paint on it had fallen off.
He turned his head and looked at the brick on the ground. He gritted his teeth in anger. He was wondering what she was looking for, but she was looking for a brick to smash his car! He turned around and glared at Xia Ning, who was walking further and further away. He gritted his teeth in anger.”You B * tch, stop right there.”
Xia Ning continued to walk forward as if she had not heard him.
He was so angry that he went after her. This time, he blocked Xia Ning’s way.
He jumped out of the car and glared at Xia Ning.”Xia Ning, what do you mean by this!”
“Smash the car!” Xia Ning raised her eyebrows.”Why? young master Song, do you think I didn’t smash it hard enough?”
“What the hell, you’re still in the right after smashing someone’s car?” Song chenfeng glared at Xia Ning, so angry that his lungs hurt. Was this woman crazy? She was unlucky every time she met him.
Xia Ning raised her eyebrows.”So, does it make sense that young master Song likes to hit on pretty girls?”

When Xia Ning woke up the next morning, she found herself lying on a fair and strong arm. She instantly recalled what happened last night. They made up just like that. It was unbelievable, but it seemed to make sense.
Feeling the warm skin pressing against her body, she shifted uncomfortably. Even though they had shared the same bed for quite some time, this was the first time they had been intimate in more than two months. Furthermore, they had played until very late last night. Thinking about some of the scenes from the previous night, she felt a little uncomfortable.
The moment she moved, Qiao Yu moved as well. He pulled her closer and hugged her tightly.
It was already hot in the summer, and it was even hotter when she hugged him.
Xia Ning wanted to push him away, but she couldn ‘t. She felt helpless.
At this time, Qiao Yu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her,””You’re awake?”
“Yes.” Xia Ning responded and said a little unnaturally,”it’s a little hot, you …”
“Let me hug you to sleep for a while. I’ll carry you to take a shower later.” Qiao Yu said as he closed his eyes.
Xia Ning was speechless. She stared at the ceiling, speechless. Who asked him to carry her to the shower?
Under normal circumstances, he would cause a scene again.
“I have a meeting in the morning. I have to get up now.” Xia Ning said in a low voice. There was a regular meeting at the huaining group today.
Hearing this, Qiao Yu opened his eyes and looked up. He suddenly stood up, and before Xia Ning could react, he carried her in his arms and walked towards the bathroom.
Xia Ning panicked a little when she suddenly lost her cover. She said loudly,””What are you doing!”
“Take a bath!” Being concise and comprehensive was Qiao Yu’s usual style.
The shower took an hour. When Xia Ning came out, she looked at the man behind her and couldn’t help but call him a hooligan. She then went straight to the cloakroom.
Qiao Yu watched as she left and couldn’t help but smile. His expression was filled with satisfaction. This morning was not bad.
By the time Xia Ning came downstairs after changing her clothes and putting on makeup, Qiao Yu had already prepared breakfast.
Xia Ning walked over and took a bite of the sandwich. She heaved a sigh of relief. She was really hungry.
“I’m going home tonight!” Qiao ran came over with two glasses of milk and handed one to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning’s expression froze. She looked at Qiao Yu, who was also looking at her, waiting for her to refute.
“En!” Xia Ning finally gave in. She wanted to see her son.
Seeing that Xia Ning had agreed, Qiao Yu’s heart instantly relaxed. He picked up a piece of bread, spread some jam and cream on it, and placed it on Xia Ning’s plate.
After breakfast, Qiao Yu sent Xia Ning to the huaining Corporation.
The car was parked in a secluded spot with no one around. Xia Ning got out of the car and waved at Qiao ran before walking towards the huaining Corporation building.
Qiao Yu didn’t mind Xia Ning’s cautious behavior anymore, because he still had evidence in other people’s hands. If they were to be exposed now, he was afraid that the photos would be leaked and it would definitely affect Xia Ning.
After a moment of silence, Qiao Yu took out his phone and made a call,”Chen Hong, tell Li Man that I’ve already given her the money. If she says one more word or even half a word wrong, I will make her pay the same price.”
“Do you need me to teach you how to do something as small as letting someone understand their situation?”
Qiao Yu hung up the phone right after he finished speaking. His expression was extremely serious. She was the only one who believed that Li Man and Jin Yan were a couple. There were some things that he couldn’t tell her yet, because he didn’t have any evidence.
When Xia Ning woke up the next morning, she found herself lying on a fair and strong arm. She instantly recalled what happened last night. They made up just like that. It was unbelievable, but it seemed to make sense.
Feeling the warm skin pressing against her body, she shifted uncomfortably. Even though they had shared the same bed for quite some time, this was the first time they had been intimate in more than two months. Furthermore, they had played until very late last night. Thinking about some of the scenes from the previous night, she felt a little uncomfortable.
The moment she moved, Qiao Yu moved as well. He pulled her closer and hugged her tightly.
It was already hot in the summer, and it was even hotter when she hugged him.
Xia Ning wanted to push him away, but she couldn ‘t. She felt helpless.
At this time, Qiao Yu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her,””You’re awake?”
“Yes.” Xia Ning responded and said a little unnaturally,”it’s a little hot, you …”
“Let me hug you to sleep for a while. I’ll carry you to take a shower later.” Qiao Yu said as he closed his eyes.
Xia Ning was speechless. She stared at the ceiling, speechless. Who asked him to carry her to the shower?
Under normal circumstances, he would cause a scene again.
“I have a meeting in the morning. I have to get up now.” Xia Ning said in a low voice. There was a regular meeting at the huaining group today.
Hearing this, Qiao Yu opened his eyes and looked up. He suddenly stood up, and before Xia Ning could react, he carried her in his arms and walked towards the bathroom.
Xia Ning panicked a little when she suddenly lost her cover. She said loudly,””What are you doing!”
“Take a bath!” Being concise and comprehensive was Qiao Yu’s usual style.
The shower took an hour. When Xia Ning came out, she looked at the man behind her and couldn’t help but call him a hooligan. She then went straight to the cloakroom.
Qiao Yu watched as she left and couldn’t help but smile. His expression was filled with satisfaction. This morning was not bad.
By the time Xia Ning came downstairs after changing her clothes and putting on makeup, Qiao Yu had already prepared breakfast.
Xia Ning walked over and took a bite of the sandwich. She heaved a sigh of relief. She was really hungry.
“I’m going home tonight!” Qiao ran came over with two glasses of milk and handed one to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning’s expression froze. She looked at Qiao Yu, who was also looking at her, waiting for her to refute.
“En!” Xia Ning finally gave in. She wanted to see her son.
Seeing that Xia Ning had agreed, Qiao Yu’s heart instantly relaxed. He picked up a piece of bread, spread some jam and cream on it, and placed it on Xia Ning’s plate.
After breakfast, Qiao Yu sent Xia Ning to the huaining Corporation.
The car was parked in a secluded spot with no one around. Xia Ning got out of the car and waved at Qiao ran before walking towards the huaining Corporation building.
Qiao Yu didn’t mind Xia Ning’s cautious behavior anymore, because he still had evidence in other people’s hands. If they were to be exposed now, he was afraid that the photos would be leaked and it would definitely affect Xia Ning.

“Do you need me to teach you how to do something as small as letting someone understand their situation?”
Qiao Yu hung up the phone right after he finished speaking. His expression was extremely serious. She was the only one who believed that Li Man and Jin Yan were a couple. There were some things that he couldn’t tell her yet, because he didn’t have any evidence.
NEXT CHAPTER
It was already 10:10 a. M. When Xia Ning arrived at huaining Corporation. Fortunately, the meeting was scheduled to start at 10:30 a. M.
When Xia Ning arrived at the office, Shen Tianlang was already waiting for her. He was sitting on the chair with his head lowered, deep in thought.
“Chairman su!” Qian Feng bowed and greeted her respectfully when he saw Xia Ning enter.
Hearing Qian Feng’s voice, Shen Tianlang immediately stood up and turned to look at Xia Ning. He nodded and said,”Good Morning, Chairman su.”
Xia Ning smiled.”Mr. Shen, have you been waiting for me for a long time?”
“No, I just arrived.” Shen Tianlang replied.
Xia Ning nodded and looked at Qian Feng, who was standing next to her.”How’s the arrangement for today’s meeting?”
“President Shen has made the arrangements,” Qian Feng replied.”We’re just waiting for you, Chairman su. I’ll tell you the process of the meeting and the important things to discuss later.”
Xia Ning nodded and looked at Shen Tianlang.””As expected, the Huai Ning group can’t do without President Shen.”
Shen Tianlang looked at Xia Ning and said sincerely,””Thank you,” he said.
“I don’t need a thank you. I’m a businessman, and I want to see profits.” Xia Ning smiled and said,”I’m looking forward to your performance, President Shen.”
Shen Tianlang nodded seriously.”I won’t let you down.”
“Then let’s prepare for the meeting. Tell me the main points of today’s meeting.” As Xia Ning spoke, she picked up the documents that Qian Feng had prepared on the table.
Qian Feng answered all of Xia Ning’s questions.
Looking at Xia Ning’s skillful movements and calm analysis, Shen Tianlang felt that his cousin was not as simple as he thought. Although she was not in charge of the huaining group, her eyes never left it.
After the meeting, it was already 11:30 pm. Xia Ning chatted with the directors for a while and was about to leave.
Shen Tianlang blocked her way at the elevator.
“What is it?” Xia Ning looked at him and asked in confusion.
“Ke, can you go somewhere with me?” Shen Tianlang asked after some hesitation.
He had called her ‘President su’ in the office earlier, but now he was calling her ‘ke’. This meant that what he wanted her to do was a private matter. Xia Ning looked at Shen Tianlang and asked,”where is it?”
“The nursing home.” Shen Tianlang replied.
Xia Ning looked at him in confusion.”Why are we going to the nursing home?”
“Grandfather wants to see you.” Shen Tianlang explained,”ever since the will was made public, Grandpa moved out of the Shen family’s ancestral house and went to a nursing home.” This was also a financial problem.
Upon hearing this, Xia Ning’s expression turned a little calmer.”You know, I don’t want to see him, and I don’t want to see him.”
“Ke, he’s an elder. Can’t you fulfill his wish?” Shen Tianlang said in a low voice, his eyes full of pain.
Xia Ning looked at Shen Tianlang and sneered.”He’s your elder, but to me, it doesn’t matter whether he’s around or not. Even if my mother was alive, she would have the same attitude as me. We won’t acknowledge him, so why should I go see him?!”
“Ke …” Shen Tianlang tried to persuade her, but Xia Ning had already pressed the elevator button and the door opened.
Shen Tianlang turned around and looked at Xia Ning. He said in a sad voice,””Grandpa is sick, very sick. Maybe this is the last time you can see him.”
Xia Ning stopped in her tracks. Last time? She looked ahead coldly, and the next moment, she walked into the elevator.
In the car, Xia Ning was leaning back in her seat and browsing the news on her phone.
Shen Tianlang looked at her as he drove, his eyes full of gratitude.”Ke, Grandpa will be very happy to see you.”
Xia Ning glanced at him and said,”I don’t know if he’s happy or not, but you’re happy.”
Shen Tianlang smiled without saying anything. He was really happy.
Xia Ning’s gaze returned to her phone screen, which was showing the latest news about Jin Yan.
Recently, she had been busy filming and had finally made the headlines. However, Jin Yan’s side was in an uproar.
Someone had leaked the news that “the season waiting for you” had changed its female supporting role. It was suspected that Jin Yan had a bad relationship with the original female supporting role, Li Man. It was said that in Apple TV’s large-scale variety show “in love, we have to be together”, Jin Yan’s partner had originally been Li Man, but Apple TV had never officially approved it.
As a superstar singer, Jin Yan had a huge fan base. When the news broke, his online fans were instantly agitated.
“Oh my God, it’s Li Man, that B * tch. Back then, Heavenly King Jin decided that she would be the second female lead. I even said that even Heavenly Kings have to accept women who get promoted through unspoken rules. Now, Jin Yan has kicked her out of the production team. How satisfying.”
“I don’t know how many men Li Man slept with to get to where she is today, but she still wants to partner with Heavenly King Jin? What is Apple TV thinking? if she and King Jin are a couple, I won’t watch it. ”
“It’s said that the second female lead is Yang Xin. She has good acting skills, a good character, and no scandals. She’s definitely better than Li Man. I’m really looking forward to the director’s Virgo.”
“I’m really looking forward to King Jin’s variety show. This is his first variety show. I wonder who will be his partner. Let’s have a vote. Who do you guys want to be with him?”
Xia Ning was relieved to see that no one had found out about Jin Yan’s relationship with Li Man. She felt lucky for Jin Yan. Fortunately, his relationship with Li Man had not been exposed. Otherwise, he would have been under a lot of pressure judging from the netizens ‘attitude.
About 40 minutes later, they arrived at the nursing home that Shen Tianlang had mentioned. They drove in and parked the car. Shen Tianlang then brought Xia Ning inside.
Xia Ning followed Shen Tianlang into the house. The weather was nice today and the sun was shining brightly. There were many elderly people sitting on the chairs on both sides of the house, chatting happily.
Shen Tianlang brought Xia Ning to a room on the second floor. As soon as they opened the door, the smell of medicine greeted them. Xia Ning could not help but frown.
“Grandpa, I’m here.” Shen Tianlang walked toward the window as soon as he entered.
As soon as he left, Xia Ning’s vision widened. She looked around the house-there was a bed, a table, a chair, and a small window. It couldn’t be any simpler.
She then looked at Shen Yuanqi, who was lying on the bed. She had not seen him for just over two months, and he had actually become like this. His eyes were sunken, his mouth was half open, his face was dark and thin, and there was a needle inserted into the back of his thin hand, and he was on an intravenous drip.
Who would have thought that the man who had once dominated the business world for so many years would one day be in such a state, living in a small room in a nursing home and waiting for death?
“Ke, Grandpa is calling you.” Shen Tianlang suddenly turned his head and said to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning came back to her senses, glanced at Shen Tianlang, and walked over.
On the bed, Shen Yuanqi’s mouth was half-open, and his turbid eyes were fixed on Xia Ning. He wanted to say something, but his voice was very soft and could not be heard clearly.
Shen Tianlang put his ear to his mouth and said,””Grandpa, what do you want to say? I’m listening.”
“I want to … Talk to … Ke alone.” Shen Yuanqi said in a low voice.
Shen Tianlang knew that Shen Yuanqi wanted to see Xia Ning mostly because of Xia yunning, and most of the things he wanted to talk to her about were related to Xia yunning, so he also understood Shen Yuanqi’s meaning.
As an elder, he could not admit his past mistakes in front of the younger generation.
He nodded and said,”okay, it’s time for lunch. I’ll get you some food.” He then stood up and said to Xia Ning,”Grandpa wants to speak to you in private. Remember to call me if you need anything.”
Xia Ning nodded and Shen Tianlang left.
The door closed, and the room instantly became quiet. Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi on the bed and said nothing. She had nothing to say to him, and she came today because of Shen Tianlang. At the same time, she wanted to see what he was up to.
Shen Yuanqi’s eyes moved slightly and his gaze was fixed on Xia Ning. Seeing that she didn’t speak, he finally spoke first,”Xiao Ke …”
His voice was a little low and hoarse. It wasn’t loud, but it definitely wasn’t as sick as Shen Tianlang had thought. He seemed to be in good spirits.
Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi with a sneer in her eyes. So this was a scam. He lied to Shen Tianlang, and Shen Tianlang naturally lied to her.
“Old master Shen seems to be in good spirits.” Xia Ning pulled out a chair and sat down. She leaned back and looked at Shen Yuanqi.”Why did you call me here?”
Shen Yuanqi sighed, looked at Xia Ning and said in a low voice,””Are you still not willing to call me grandfather?”
“Did I not make myself clear last time? I don’t have a grandfather. ” Xia Ning shifted her gaze away from him, her expression cold and distant.
“I know I’ve let your grandma down, but I don’t have much time left.” Shen Yuanqi sighed.”I have liver cancer, late-stage.”
Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi and sneered,””What does this have to do with me? are you trying to get my sympathy by telling me this? Would the arrogant old master Shen also ask for other people’s pity?”
Shen Yuanqi’s expression darkened and he said in a low voice,””I know you hate me. If I had known that your mother was my child, I wouldn’t have stood by and watched. It was my fault. I let her down.”
The corners of Xia Ning’s lips curled up, but she did not say anything.
If he was still the Supreme old master of the Shen family, and the huaining group was still the Shen family ‘s, would he have said this to her?
In this world, human relationships were often thinner than one would think. There were no eternal family, only eternal interests.
“Ke, Tianlang is a good boy. I’m very happy to hear that you’ve allowed him to return to huaining group.” Shen Yuanqi continued,”that child has been kind from the bottom of his heart. In the past, I was afraid that he would suffer. Now that I think about it, his kindness has helped him. However, he is your cousin after all. If he doesn’t have any shares in the group, I’m afraid he will be looked down upon easily. You see …”
Xia Ning took out her phone from her bag and scrolled through it, but she did not answer.
“I know that you use the name ‘huaining’ to commemorate your grandmother, so I don’t blame you for changing the name of the company.” Shen Yuanqi looked at Xia Ning and said in a low voice,”if your grandmother knew that you and your sister were in charge of the huaining group, she would definitely be happy. She used to look forward to your uncle getting married and having children.”
He didn’t blame her for changing the name of the corporation?
Xia Ning found it funny. She looked up at Shen Yuanqi and a hint of ridicule flashed in her eyes.”It’s just a name change. Do I need to ask for your opinion?” Also, how do you know if my grandma is happy or not? don’t forget that she hates you the most. ”
Shen Yuanqi was stunned, and his muddy eyes moved.”Xiao Ke, do you have to talk to Grandpa like this?”
Xia Ning put away her phone and looked at Shen Yuanqi. She said with a faint smile,””There’s something you need to be clear about. I’m the chairman of the Huai Ning group now, and I decide the future of the group. I have the freedom to make any decision I want. Even if I donate all of the shares under my name to charity one day, that’s my pleasure.”
Shen Yuanqi’s fingers moved, and blood flowed backward in the syringe.
Xia Ning glanced at him. Did he get triggered?
“The needle moved.” She said in a low voice. She took the alcohol cotton on the table and helped him pull out the needle.
Shen Yuanqi looked at Xia Ning’s side profile with a confused expression. He seemed to have thought of something.
Throwing the syringe aside, Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi and sneered,””You’d better take it easy. I don’t want Shen Tianlang and the others to blame me for anything that happens to you.”
“You look so much like your grandmother.” Shen Yuanqi suddenly said.
Xia Ning chuckled.”I’m her granddaughter. Of course I look like her.”
“Your grandma is much gentler than you.”
Xia Ning raised her eyebrows and looked at Shen Yuanqi with interest.”That’s why she met a scumbag.”
Shen Yuanqi’s skinny face stiffened for a moment. He sighed,”if your grandmother was still alive, she would be very happy to have a granddaughter like you.”
Xia Ning did not respond. This old master Shen was really good at enduring. He was not angry even after she had insulted him like that. He was really a smart person.
Shen Yuanqi continued.”If I didn’t do those disgraceful things back then, your grandmother, me, your uncle’s family, your mother, and you would definitely be the most enviable family in the world.”
“There’s a saying that spilled water is hard to retrieve. What has been done is done. ”
Shen Yuanqi seemed to not hear the sarcasm in Xia Ning’s words and continued,””When your uncle was young, he wanted a sister the most. He didn’t know about your mother’s existence, so he put all his attention on Wei Ran.”
“That uncle of mine is really not an ordinary person. He treats the little sister of the mistress as his own sister, but he treats his own sister as an enemy.”
Shen Yuanqi glanced at Xia Ning, who was looking down at her phone. He frowned and sighed,””That’s my fault. Your uncle and your aunt Wei Ran were implicated by me. I’ve spoiled her too much. If you want to blame someone, then blame me. Don’t make things difficult for them. After all, they are your mother’s siblings. ”
“Brothers and sisters?” Xia Ning murmured and looked up at Shen Yuanqi. She said indifferently,”according to blood relations, that seems to be the case.”
Shen Yuanqi’s eyebrows moved and he continued,””Your uncle has suffered a stroke and is now bedridden. He can’t move freely. “Your aunt Wei Ran’s life isn’t easy either. She’s already been punished. She’s divorced and childless. Who knows what will happen to her for the rest of her life? she was young and insensible at that time. Please forgive her. If your mother knows about this, she will agree. After all, we’re a family. There’s no such thing as overnight hatred!”
Xia Ning was suddenly glad that her mother had passed away. If she were to see her father in this state, she would be sad no matter how indifferent she was.
In the end, Shen weiran was raised by his side and doted on for decades. Even if Shen Chuxia was born from his first wife, she was not close to him, so his heart naturally leaned towards the former. Any repentance was fake. His only purpose was to protect Shen weiran.
“We’re a family now. ” Xia Ning looked at Shen Yuanqi and smiled.”I saw a piece of news recently. Ms. Shen weiran isn’t doing as well as she used to be. After she divorced song Bocheng, she couldn’t stand the loneliness and became a mistress. Although her reputation is bad, she definitely doesn’t have to worry about food and clothing. However, the weather isn’t good. She’s just a wild flower that she raised outside. She was accidentally discovered by the first wife. The first wife is also a tough one. Not only did she get someone to beat her up, but she also took a nude photo of her. It had been all over the internet some time ago. It’s a pity that I was in United Kingdom at the time and didn’t have the chance to add fuel to the fire. ”
When Shen Yuanqi heard this, his face instantly turned green. He looked at Xia Ning and said in a deep voice,””She’s your aunt!”
“My mom is your biological daughter.” “Are you going to sacrifice my mother just to protect an illegitimate daughter?” Xia Ning retorted.
“But your mother has already …” Shen Yuanqi wanted to explain, but he swallowed his words when he saw Xia Ning’s expression.
Xia Ning knew what he wanted to say. She stood up and looked down at Shen Yuanqi.”Because my mother is dead, you can ignore all the grievances she has suffered. In fact, you don’t love my grandma that much, or else why would you be so cold to her daughter? all you think about is your Shen group, and you only care about Shen weiran and Chen Donglai. Sometimes, I feel disgusted when I think about it. ”
“Enough!” Xia Ning interrupted him coldly,”I don’t want to hear any nonsense from you. Let me tell you, if you didn’t say this, I might not have bothered with Shen weiran. But now, I’ve decided that I’m going to make her suffer a thousand times.”
“Xiao Ke … Cough, cough …” Shen Yuanqi called Xia Ning. He couldn’t catch his breath and couldn’t stop coughing.
Xia Ning glanced at him and said,”since you’re sick, you should rest well. After all, my grandmother will only be at peace if someone like you is alive. If you’re dead, I’m really afraid that you’ll shamelessly go and look for my grandmother.” As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and left.
“Cough, cough …” Shen Yuanqi covered his mouth and coughed violently. The door opened and closed, blocking all his sounds.
At the top of the stairs, Xia Ning was about to go down when she bumped into Shen Tianlang, who came up with a bowl of porridge.
Xiao Ke, what’s wrong? where are you going?” Shen Tianlang asked.
“We’re done here, I’m going back,”Xia Ning said calmly.
“Ah, Grandpa hasn’t eaten yet. Let’s wait for him to finish eating before we leave. I’ll send you off.”
“No need,” Xia Ning walked past him and left.
Shen Tianlang turned around and shouted at Xia Ning, who was walking down the stairs,””Ke …”
However, Xia Ning completely ignored him and went downstairs in the blink of an eye.
When Shen Tianlang returned to the ward, the nurse was changing Shen Yuanqi’s needle and re-injecting him.
“What’s going on?” He placed the porridge on the table.
The nurse replied,”old master Shen moved a little just now. The needle moved by accident. It’s nothing. Someone pulled it out for him.”
“Yes, thank you.” Shen Tianlang recalled Xia Ning’s cold expression when she left. He then looked at Shen Yuanqi, who was lying on the bed in a daze. He suddenly understood that his grandfather must have said something to make her unhappy again.
Ke’s temper was still as stubborn as ever. Grandpa was sick, couldn’t she just accommodate him?
Xia Ning quickly walked out of the nursing home. She really couldn’t stay there any longer. She was so disgusted by Shen Yuanqi that she was about to throw up.
She could tell that Shen Yuanqi felt that his daughter and son had nothing, so he wanted to play the family card to get something from her. He really did not change.
It was probably because the Shen family’s recent defeat had made his proud heart unable to take it. Even if she threw her money into the sea, she would not leave them a single word.
The area around the nursing home was too remote, and it was noon. Xia Ning waited at the entrance for a long time but still couldn’t get a taxi. She had no choice but to give it a try at the intersection ahead.
As she walked, she took out her phone and dialed Zheng Ziming’s number.
“Ziming, help me check Shen weiran’s movements.”
“What are you doing? I haven’t seen my aunt for a long time, have I?” Xia Ning chuckled.”If I don’t meet her, she might say to others that I don’t respect her.” She hung up the phone and walked to the intersection to wait for a taxi.
After waiting for ten minutes, there was still no taxi. Xia Ning looked up at the sky and the sun was shining brightly in her eyes. She looked at the time and saw that it was already past oneo’ clock, so she decided to walk a little further.
She walked along the road, and after some time, a blue sports car stopped beside her.
“Hey beautiful, are you alone?” A man’s teasing voice came from the car window. The window rolled down, but the driver’s seat was on the left, so the man’s face could not be seen clearly.
Xia Ning frowned and ignored the man, continuing to walk forward.
However, the sports car did not give up and continued to chase after her.
“Beauty, why are you walking by the road alone under such a bright sun? get in the car, big brother will take you to play!” The man in the car continued to speak, his tone becoming more and more frivolous.
Xia Ning continued to ignore him. She turned a corner and the car behind her caught up.
“Beauty, why are you ignoring me? are you afraid that I will bully you?”
Xia Ning suddenly stopped in her tracks and smiled.”Alright, give me a moment.” She walked to the bushes and bent down as if she was looking for something.
Hearing Xia Ning’s words, the person in the car couldn’t help but snicker smugly.”You’ll be teased one day too!”
He looked at Xia Ning, who was standing outside the car, and saw that she had already stood up and was walking towards him. He smirked and unlocked the car door. Just as he was about to show off to her, he heard a loud crash on the car door and the car shook.
Bang! Something fell to the ground. The next moment, he saw Xia Ning clapping her hands and walking forward.
What’s going on? why aren’t you coming up? And what else was going on! The person in the car got out and turned to look at the other door.
It didn’t matter if he didn’t look, but the moment he saw it, his entire face turned green. F * ck, did he have to be so ruthless! There was a big hole in the back of the blue car. It had obviously been hit by a heavy object, and the paint on it had fallen off.
He turned his head and looked at the brick on the ground. He gritted his teeth in anger. He was wondering what she was looking for, but she was looking for a brick to smash his car! He turned around and glared at Xia Ning, who was walking further and further away. He gritted his teeth in anger.”You B * tch, stop right there.”
Xia Ning continued to walk forward as if she had not heard him.
He was so angry that he went after her. This time, he blocked Xia Ning’s way.
He jumped out of the car and glared at Xia Ning.”Xia Ning, what do you mean by this!”
“Smash the car!” Xia Ning raised her eyebrows.”Why? young master Song, do you think I didn’t smash it hard enough?”
“What the hell, you’re still in the right after smashing someone’s car?” Song chenfeng glared at Xia Ning, so angry that his lungs hurt. Was this woman crazy? She was unlucky every time she met him.
Xia Ning raised her eyebrows.”So, does it make sense that young master Song likes to hit on pretty girls?”
