really.
If Xiang Jin still doesn't understand what Li Shuhui is thinking after spending so much time together, then she's a real fool.
but--
Li Shuhui is not credible.
She had deceived her so many times, successfully manipulating her every time using Jiang Anqing as leverage. How could she easily discard such a useful handle? Only when she truly became worthless would Jiang Anqing also become worthless, and only then would Li Shuhui truly let her go.
However, she could never keep her promise before that.
After a moment, Xiang Jin calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Okay. But I need to know one thing: why do you hate me so much, and why do you hate Jiang Anqing so much?"
This matter has always puzzled Xiang Jin.
If it really was just because Jiang Anqing deceived her, selfishly sending her own biological daughter to the Xiang family as an adopted daughter to enjoy all the riches and honors, she could simply kick her out and not have to see her anymore. Why push her to the brink of despair and refuse to give her any way out?
There are only two reasons for this: either Li Shuhui is utterly wicked, or there is another hidden reason.
While in prison, Xiang Jin often thought of the way Li Shuhui looked at her—a look filled with envy, jealousy, and a kind of obsessive hatred.
It's like looking at another person through her.
"Do I need a reason to hate you?" Li Shuhui blurted out.
After a long silence, her gaze turned gloomy: "Especially when I see your face, it only reminds me of that disgusting bitch. She made my life miserable when she was alive, so I'll make yours miserable too. Who told you to look like her?"
"Does she look like Jiang Anqing?" But she doesn't look like Jiang Anqing at all. Jiang Anqing has an oval face, while Xiang Jin has a full face. Jiang Anqing has a gentle nose, while Xiang Jin has a high nose. Jiang Anqing has a broad and flat forehead, while Xiang Jin has a fuller forehead... If we're talking about resemblance, it seems that only the eyes are somewhat similar.
They all have fox-like eyes, alluring and seductive.
But if it wasn't Jiang Anqing, then who was it? And who did she look like that made Li Shuhui hate her so much?
Li Shuhui withdrew her gaze, her expression turning cold once more: "Alright, that concludes our conversation. One last friendly reminder: never try to tell Murong Xiao the truth, or you'll pay the price."
After he finished speaking, the video cut off, and the screen went completely black.
Xiang Jin took a deep breath and put down her phone.
She wrapped herself in the blanket, staring blankly out the window, feeling a chill run through her body.
A few minutes later, she pulled out the IV tubing, changed out of her hospital gown, and staggered out of the ward. She had only taken a few steps when she collapsed in the corridor.
She was too weak; she felt dizzy and powerless.
But she couldn't stay here any longer. She couldn't just sit and wait to die. She had to find a way to save Jiang Anqing. If this torture continued, she really would die. The first person who popped into her mind was Xiang Deming. She would beg him; he would surely have some clues, even if it was just a hint.
Xiang Jin struggled to get up and walked outside step by step.
"Oh my god! Xiang Qi, the number one talented woman in the design world, has actually become the new spokesperson for 'Deep Sea'! Oh my god, is my CP going to become a reality?!" In the corridor, three young girls couldn't help but scream while looking at the news on their phones.
After all, it was a hospital, and such a sound was too jarring, immediately attracting Xiang Jin's attention.
"Oh my god! I heard rumors from netizens before, but I thought it was just a rumor. I didn't expect it to be true! The number one talented woman is hundreds of times better than that Fang Xinman. She and Master Xiao are a perfect match!"
"Maybe Lord Xiao blacklisted Fang Xinman for Xiang Qi's sake! Ahhh, hurry up and kill me to liven things up for them!!"
"But...didn't Master Xiao get married? Wouldn't Xiang Qi become a mistress?" The girl standing on the far side spoke in a low voice.
"That ugly hag in my house? Does she even deserve Master Xiao? If Master Xiao likes her, I'll eat shit on live stream!"
"But breaking up someone else's family is wrong."
"What do you mean by breaking up someone's family? Which eye of yours saw Xiang Qi break up someone's family? Are they truly in love? True love that breaks free from constraints and worldly conventions is our role model!"
"But I still feel sorry for Mrs. Murong..."
…………
As the three people walked away, their voices grew fainter and fainter. Xiang Jin came to her senses and realized that her hands, which were supporting her against the tree, had dug deeply into the trunk, and blood was flowing from between her fingers, but she didn't even feel any pain.
Despite the scorching sun overhead, she felt no warmth whatsoever.
Has Xiangqi already become the spokesperson for the 'deep sea'? So the deep love he couldn't see through or reach really was Xiangqi... In such a short time, how far has their relationship progressed? Do they talk about their hobbies, design, and dreams? Do they talk about themselves, and what do they say...?
Will they... hold hands? Will they kiss? Will they look at each other with loving eyes? Will they...?
stop!
Stop thinking about it!
Xiang Jin forced herself to pull herself out of her increasingly out-of-control emotions. She hastily wiped the blood off her fingers, went out, took a taxi to the Xiang family home, and went straight to Xiang Deming's study.
Xiang Deming was not at home. Xiang Jin went to the headquarters of Xiang's Group, but was told by his assistant that he had just left on a business trip abroad.
It seems he's avoiding her.
Knowing she would come begging to him, and knowing he might soften his heart, he simply avoided her. Nothing was more important than the future of the Xiang family and Xiang Qi's future; what did sacrificing his adopted daughter matter?
Xiang Jin took a deep breath.
That feeling of helplessness and despair spread throughout my body again.
She walked out of the building in a daze, when she suddenly heard a familiar voice. Looking up, she saw Murong Xiao standing not far away next to a Maserati, as if waiting for someone.
He's back?
Her heart, which had been cooling, suddenly began to boil. She subconsciously took a step to run towards him, but a gentle and clear voice came from behind her.
“Ah Xiao.” It was Xiang Qi.
Like a joyful little bird, she hurried towards her happiness.
Xiang Jin flashed and hid behind the huge pillar.
She instinctively covered her mouth, afraid that she would make a sound.
Ah Xiao... She had known him for many years, but she never had the chance to call him that, and he never gave her that chance either. It turned out that from beginning to end, only Xiang Qi could enter his heart.
I have to admit, for a moment, Xiang Jin felt jealous.
A frenzied, rampant, and uncontrollable jealousy.
"Have you found it?" Murong Xiao asked Xiang Qi, his voice urgent and serious.
"No, she doesn't seem to have been here before, but I do know another place, that place is..."
"No need." Murong Xiao was inexplicably irritated. Ever since that phone call from the hotel, he had been unable to contact Xiang Jin. He had rushed back after dealing with matters abroad, only to find that Xiang Jin was nowhere to be found. She wasn't at home, not at the company, not at the Xiang family... and he couldn't reach her by phone either.
