Mu Xiaoxiao yawned as she placed a hand on Yin Shaojie’s chest. “Oh yeah, we’ve just returned from abroad, so we’re tired. We were planning to turn in early; you should get some rest too,” she said deliberately.
An Zhixin’s gaze shook.
So they had gone overseas for fun…
An Zhixin had never been overseas or even anywhere outside her province. She had previously lived in City B with her mom, but she had remarried. Not wanting to be burdened by her, her mom abandoned her to her dad in City A.
Her gaze was obviously envious and even… showed a little jealousy.
It was fun to be able to go overseas to play!
However, going overseas for fun seemed like a normal thing to Mu Xiaoxiao from her tone.
It must be great to have money!
Mu Xiaoxiao was only trying to hint to An Zhixin that she and Yin Shaojie were actually about to sleep together and how they were on intimate terms, but An Zhixin thought she was trying to boast about being overseas.
Upon seeing that the door was about to close, An Zhixin hurriedly blocked it.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at her and asked, “Is anything else the matter?”
An Zhixin was a little flurried, but she tried hard to calm herself down.
She looked towards Yin Shaojie as though she was waiting for a reaction from him.
Even simply a pitiful glance from him would do…
However, there was none.
“That…” An Zhixin’s thoughts were running a little wild. “It’s nothing. I just wanted to say goodnight.”
“Oh, goodnight,” Mu Xiaoxiao answered politely.
An Zhixin took two steps back.
The door in front of her shut mercilessly.
Her face was somber as she trudged to the lift.
As she watched the lift descend level by level, she replayed the scene where Mu Xiaoxiao had implied that she was throwing herself at him. The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt.
An Zhixin’s gaze burned with fury.
She threw everything in her hands — even the plate — into the rubbish bin.
The lift arrived at the top floor with a chime.
As An Zhixin walked in, she couldn’t help but turn to look at the door.
This unit was way better compared to the one she had been living in before, and even the door lock was technologically advanced.
An Zhixin had fantasized about Yin Shaojie countless times. If she could only move in to her own place and live together with Yin Shaojie, that would be perfect…
She was obviously aware that this wasn’t right.
Yin Shaojie was already very good to her. He let her have such a luxurious condominium to stay in and had bought her so many new clothes. He had already treated her so well by giving her access to this place.
It was only that he didn’t like her. He liked Mu Xiaoxiao…
An Zhixin knew all of this and that she stood no chance with him.
However… she just couldn’t give up!
The lift doors closed slowly.
An Zhixin leaned against the wall and covered her face with her hand.
Like that, no one would be able to see her gloomy expression.
An Zhixin walked back to the condominium.
Wang Shiyu was laying on the sofa and eating some fruit. Upon seeing her sad expression, she sat up and asked, “What’s the matter? Has Young Master Jie returned?”
Previously, even though Zhixin looked disappointed when she returned, she had never looked… so sad as though she had lost her soul like today.
An Zhixin walked over to sit down beside her. Suddenly, she leaned over and hugged her.
She sobbed as she said, “Shiyu… what should I do? I really, really like him!”
