Zhang Min’s eyes, as if poisoned, glared fiercely at Han Xi, her cold voice seeming to be laced with ice shards: "I won’t let this go. Sooner or later, I’ll come to settle the score with you."
Han Xi slipped her hands into her coat pockets, a slight, indifferent smile on her lips: "Do you still have that chance? Or do you think my husband and my grandmother are people you can afford to offend?"
"Han Xi, don’t be too smug. Let’s wait and see."
Right now, Zhang Min wished she could tear Han Xi to pieces. Seeing her speak so fearlessly, slandering her, Zhang Min was about to explode with anger.
Han Xi brushed past Zhang Min indifferently, not wanting to waste time with them here.
Han Yaxin turned around to look at Han Xi with a glance as terrifying as a midnight ghost. Their family’s current downfall was all thanks to her, and she was determined not to let it end like this.
"Mom, let’s go home first. There will always be a chance to teach her a lesson later."
......
Today, Han Xi got off work early. After coming out of the operating room and instructing the nurses about some matters in the afternoon, she went home.
When she got home, Wen Yichen wasn’t there. She changed her shoes in the entryway and went upstairs, took a hot shower in the bathroom, and after drying her hair with a hairdryer, Han Xi took out her phone and called Lu Jinghan. The call was quickly answered on the other end.
"Missed me?"
Lu Jinghan closed the file in his hand, his clear voice tinged with affection.
"No, just wanted to tell you I won’t be home for dinner tonight. We have a class reunion."
Lu Jinghan picked up a cigarette from his desk, turned his head to light it, letting the white smoke spill from his lips: "Really didn’t miss me? Think it over before you answer."
Han Xi sat at the dressing table with a soft smile, somehow feeling there was a hidden warning in his words: "Maybe just a little bit."
"Mrs. Lu, can I accompany you to the class reunion tonight?"
"Why would you go to our class reunion? You don’t even know them."
Han Xi pressed the phone to speaker mode and placed it on the dressing table, picking up the water on the table to pat her face.
"Then try to stay away from male classmates, and don’t drink. Call me after the reunion, and I’ll pick you up."
Lu Jinghan’s little thoughts are really... Han Xi didn’t even want to say anything.
"Got it, I won’t say more now. I need to get ready to leave."
After hanging up the phone, Han Xi applied light makeup and found an outfit in the wardrobe to change into, then drove to Chu Ci’s place.
When Han Xi arrived, Chu Ci was just coming out of the villa. Chu Ci got into the passenger seat, after circling around the front of the car: "Let’s go pick up Manman."
"It’s so cold, and you’re wearing so little. Does Fu Bin know?"
Han Xi frowned at Chu Ci, steering the wheel to turn right at the corner.
Chu Ci smiled and raised an eyebrow: "If he knew, could I still come out dressed like this? It’s a rare class reunion, even if I’m pregnant, I want to look good."
"I’ll wait and see how Fu Bin will lecture you when we get home tonight."
Chu Ci leaned against the passenger seat, smiling silently as she looked out the window: "I called Feng Yi this afternoon, and he said he wouldn’t agree to break up with Manman, and he also said he knew he was wrong."
"But Manman minds that Feng Yi is too good to Yu Shiyuan, to the point of ignoring her existence."
Mentioning Yu Shiyuan made Chu Ci angry. She turned to look at Han Xi: "I told Feng Yi that Yu Shiyuan likes him and is playing little tricks. Guess what Feng Yi said?"
