Tang Feiling suddenly frowned and sighed. “How can Yan Rusheng do this to you? That violinist’s class is beneath yours.”
Xuxu snorted quietly in her heart. This lady’s character was really unlikeable. At least she couldn’t bring herself to like Tang Feiling.
Xuxu didn’t respond and smiled instead. “Miss Tang, I have something on. I need to leave.”
She turned on her heel, ready to leave.
Tang Feiling quickly grabbed her wrist and stopped her. She exclaimed, “Hey, Xuxu! We’ve just met and you are already leaving? It has been some time since I last saw you. Let’s grab lunch together.”
Xuxu shook her head and declined her politely once more. “I really have something on. Thank you for your kind offer. Next time perhaps.”
She awkwardly retracted her arm, which Tang Feiling was still gripping on tightly.
Tang Feiling pouted and her expression revealed pity. “In that case, it’s quite a pity indeed. I wanted to give you a treat.”
Xuxu managed a feeble smile and walked away.
Moments later, Tang Feiling’s voice rang once more. “Xuxu, you shouldn’t dwell on it too much. Men born into wealthy families are rarely devoted and faithful to their wives. You will find another one with your qualities.”
She seemed to broadcast to everyone for fear that no one else knew that her husband had cheated on her.
Xuxu’s expression turned stony but her strides remained calm and collected.
“Isn’t she the childhood sweetheart of Third Young Master Yan?”
“That’s why I said it’s impossible for an orphan girl like her to marry a rich man and have a happily ever after. Fairy tales don’t exist in real life.”
The corners of Xuxu’s mouth coldly twitched.
She had initially wanted to shop but to her dismay, she met Tang Feiling. And true enough, her appearance thoroughly destroyed her mood.
She left the mall and went to a random restaurant. She ordered several spicy dishes.
After she had finished her meal, she didn’t feel like going home yet, so she aimlessly wandered around on the streets.
She suddenly caught sight of a familiar building which made her heart skip a beat.
“How did I end up here?” Xuxu muttered to herself and hastened her footsteps as she went to the side of the road.
She stretched her hand to flag a taxi.
She opened the door and got in.
“Isn’t that Sister Xuxu?”
“I think so.”
Two people came out of the building and caught a fleeting glimpse of Xuxu getting inside the taxi. They discussed in hushed whispers.
…
Xuxu peered out from the taxi’s windows. She hasn’t been out in quite some time, but she felt better after being cooped up at home for days.
She felt that she should get a job and shouldn’t stay at home to rot all day long.
“Miss, you haven’t told me your destination.”
The taxi driver suddenly turned around and spoke to Xuxu.
Xuxu looked at him and deliberated. “Bright Elegance Park.”
She hasn’t visited her grandfather for quite some time.
Xuxu propped her head against the window and was about to doze off when her phone vibrated.
She whipped out her phone and saw that Su Yan had sent her a text.
He sent her a photo taken at the Donghai Train Station. Yan Rusheng was half-squatting, half-kneeling in front of her in the photo. Su Yan had edited it and added a caption.
‘Wife, please give me another chance…’
Xuxu chuckled and was about to stow her phone away when Su Yan followed up with another text. “You should have made him kneel properly and beg for forgiveness.”
She frowned and ignored.
Suddenly a thought struck Xuxu. She dialed Su Yan’s number.
