In the reception room on the 21st floor of SE Entertainment, Xia Ning looked at Zou Mei, who sat opposite her, and said, “We have seen each other before.”
“Yes.” Zou Mei nodded, “We did meet, just in this SE building. It was also at a press conference that took place eight months ago.”
“We were on the most-searched-for rankings together!” Xia Ning smiled with her pupils darkening. She fixed her eyes on the woman opposite her, “I supposed that you would hate me.”
“At first, I did hate you. Because of you, my peers laughed at me for a long time.” Zou Mei said frankly, “However, you showed me the charisma of an actress, not on the stage, but really in your person.”
Does she have charisma? Xia Ning raised her eyebrows, stood up, and said to Zou Mei, “I apologize to you for the trouble I brought you before.” Saying so, she stretched out her hand.
Zou Mei looked at the woman in front of her, paused momentarily, and stood up slowly. Seeing her stretch out her hand, Zou Mei suddenly smiled. This was Xia Ning, who dared to love and hate distinctively.
“Actually, I was wrong in the first place.” Zou Mei stretched out her hand to shake hands with Xia Ning.
Xia Ning smiled lightly, “You make me have faith in the journalistic profession.”
“You make me believe that there are pure performers in this world, too.” Zou Mei smiled.
After chatting for a while, Zou Mei was about to leave. Before she went away, she looked at Xia Ning and said sincerely, “I trust your mother, for only a pure mother could give birth to a child as pure as you.”
“Thank you!” Xia Ning nodded.
Zou Mei left. Zheng Ziming came in.
“We have settled the matter and the lawyer also established liaison. Are you free this afternoon? Shall we go to play some ball games?”
Thinking of Enoch who was still at home, Xia Ning was a little hesitant.
“What’s the matter?” Zheng Ziming frowned.
“Next time.”
“Why?” Zheng Ziming approached Xia Ning and looked at her, “Will you go to Qiao Yu’s home again? Asteria, do you know what your action means?”
Xia Ning looked at Zheng Ziming, “For the time being, I will live there.”
“Asteria, you must be crazy!” Zheng Ziming moved back and forth in the conference room, raised his head to look around with agitation, fixed his gaze on her and said angrily, “Will you remarry him?”
“Let’s put it off until some time later.” Xia Ning said in a low voice.
“What do you mean by that?!” Zheng Ziming grew unhappy, “Asteria, I know you feel sorry for that child. But there is completely no need for you to make it hard on yourself…”
“It’s enough. Don’t say it anymore.” Xia Ning interrupted him, “As the matter has already been settled, I will leave.” With these words, she walked out.
Seeing so, Zheng Ziming hurried to follow, “Asteria, listen to me…”
Zheng Ziming followed Xia Ning to the parking lot, speaking all the way, “When we finish these matters about the Shen family, let’s go back to Britain. There is completely no need to contact Qiao Yu. If you miss that child, you can chat with him through video call thanks to the high technology nowadays. Anyhow, I don’t believe that Qiao Yu is sincere to you. Have you forgotten all those things in the past? ! At least I did not forget. If you forget, I will tell you one by one.”
Xia Ning turned to look at Zheng Ziming, feeling speechless, “Are you terribly bored…”
Hoot… Someone in a car beside them gave two short hoots on the horn, which interrupted their conversation.
Xia Ning and Zheng Ziming turned at the same time and saw a man in a suit alight from a black Bentley. There was tenderness in his handsome face as he looked at Xia Ning, “Have you finished all the things?”
Xia Ning did not expect that Qiao Yu would suddenly come here. She nodded by instinct and asked, “Why are you here?”
Qiao Yu came up to her and said gently, “I came to bring you home.”
