In the photo of her back, Xiang Jin is wearing a light blue dress, holding a book, and walking slowly forward. Dappled shadows fall from the trees, and she slightly turns her head, her eyes like stars, her smile as warm as a spring breeze.
Who else could this be but Xiang Jin?
Kelly's face turned deathly pale instantly.
She stared blankly at the two of them, still unable to accept the reality before her eyes.
How could this be? How could this be... Xiang Jin is actually the proprietress of Feng Rong, the wife of Murong Xiao, and the most enviable woman in this country. How could she live a better life than me?
How could she accept this? How could she swallow this insult?
"Kelly, remember to keep your promise," Xiang Jin calmly added.
"What promise?" Murong Xiao asked.
“It’s nothing. She said if I brought my husband to meet her, she would quit the design industry forever and never touch it again. I think she’s quite sincere, so I asked you to come up.”
"Oh? Then you should indeed keep your promise. If it's inconvenient, I can help you again?"
Kelly's face was as white as could be.
She's finished, she's really finished... Murong Xiao's words were simple: if she didn't keep her promise to leave the design industry, he would take action directly. Who told her to be so stupid as to offend Murong Xiao's wife, making such a confident bet, only to lose everything?
Kelly couldn't even cry anymore.
She regretted it so much it hurt her guts. If she had known Xiang Jin's husband was Murong Xiao, she would never have said those words, even if it meant being killed. But how could Xiang Jin marry Murong Xiao? She was so lowly, so despicable. She hadn't even graduated high school, and she…
"Mr. Xiao, do you know that Xiang Jin has been to prison? She's a woman who's been to prison!" Suddenly remembering something, Kelly shouted at the backs of the two men.
The faces of everyone in the office changed, and they all looked at the two people.
Xiang Jin and Murong Xiao, who were already preparing to leave, stopped in their tracks upon hearing her words.
Kelly thought her words had worked, and quickly said, "She's not only been to jail, but she's also had ambiguous relationships with many men. Many of her colleagues can testify to that! Youwei can testify too, Youwei, come out now!"
Fan Youwei stood still without moving, not uttering a single sound.
The way Kelly was looked at by her other colleagues changed.
Xiang Jin did receive flowers in the office, but there was no evidence to prove that the flowers were bought by another man. Kelly was clearly desperate and trying to smear Xiang Jin.
Xiang Jin's expression turned somewhat cold at this moment.
She never expected that even at this point, Kelly would still find time to criticize her!
Just as she was about to speak, a leisurely voice came from beside her: "I already knew all this."
"You know? Then why are you still with her..."
“But what does it matter? As long as she’s willing to be with me, she can do whatever she wants.” Murong Xiao calmly interrupted her.
Upon hearing this, Kelly's face contorted in disgust.
Xiang Jin glanced at the fascinating expression on her face, then calmly withdrew his gaze and pulled Murong Xiao away from the company.
The office remained deathly silent; you could hear a pin drop.
"Kelly, finish your resignation procedures in a bit, you don't need to come in this afternoon." Xu Jianshen said calmly, turning around and walking briskly towards his office.
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu! I've worked diligently for so many years, you can't treat me like this!" Kelly completely broke down.
"There's nothing I can do. Who told you to offend Murong Xiao? Besides... don't make those oaths so carelessly next time, you know? This is your own fault." After saying that, Xu Jianshen returned to his office and slammed the door shut.
The atmosphere in the office remained eerie.
Chen Anxing, who was standing in the corner, couldn't stand it anymore and quickly came out to give a shout. Only then did everyone get into the zone and start working.
However, how could they possibly work with peace of mind after such explosive news?
Qianqian wasn't in the mood for work either. She stared at Mu Xin's signature on her notebook, grinning foolishly. Wow! Her idol was actually Feng Rong's boss's wife! She'd just hugged and kissed her! She'd hit the jackpot!
She covered her mouth, afraid she would scream, and stared silently at the autograph. After a while, she paused, then turned to the second page.
On the second page, there is a new image: an unfinished steamed bun.
Qianqian was shocked. She opened the webpage with trembling hands and searched for the signature of the unfinished steamed bun. After searching for a long time, she finally found it in an illustration of a news report.
Then she screamed and stood up abruptly from her seat.
Mu Xin... Mu Xin is like an unfinished steamed bun... Oh my god, could there be any more explosive news than this?
She not only hugged her idol, she also kissed her!
She's going to die!
…………
Everyone watched as Qianqian hugged and kissed a notebook, and then looked at Kelly behind her, who was scolding and beating Fan Youwei and crying uncontrollably. They silently sighed, "Murong Xiao's charm is really too great... He's only been here for less than half an hour, and two of them have gone crazy."
If we stay any longer, will we all go crazy?
But none of this concerns them anymore. After all, there is a difference between gods and mortals. Their arrival once in a lifetime is already more than 99% of people's lives, and there probably won't be a next time.
…………
Back in the car, Xiang Jin immediately apologized.
"I'm sorry, I took advantage of you... but they were so persistent that I just couldn't take it anymore."
Murong Xiao remained silent.
Thinking he was angry, she had no choice but to lower her stance further: "I'm sorry... I won't do it again next time. I just wanted to teach Kelly a lesson and slap her in the face, that's all. If you mind, I'll never mention your identity again."
Her voice grew softer and softer until it finally fell silent.
Suddenly realizing there was no sound beside him, Murong Xiao turned around and pinched her cheek: "What's wrong? You look so worried."
Xiang Jin: "?"
It turns out he wasn't listening at all!
Then why is she apologizing? What a load of rubbish!
She silently withdrew her hand from his arm, pouted slightly in annoyance, and looked out the window. Murong Xiao didn't look at her either, as if he was seriously thinking about something.
Just as they were about to get out of the car, Murong Xiao opened the door first.
"Xiang Jin, come with me to Feng Rong's banquet tomorrow. Remember to dress up." After saying that, he got out of the car, leaving Xiang Jin in the car looking completely bewildered.
Su Ming, who was driving, explained: "Tomorrow, Fengrong's senior management will be holding a banquet to celebrate the successful investment in the Australian project. Most of Fengrong's senior management will be attending."
Xiang Jin was stunned. She naturally understood what it meant that most of Feng Rong's senior management would be attending.
This signifies the official public announcement of her identity as the proprietress of Fengrong, and it also represents announcing Xiangjin's existence to the world.
From now on, she will be the proprietress of Fengrong; from now on, she will officially appear before the world as Murong Xiao's wife; from now on, they will be husband and wife, sharing honor and disgrace.
She was no longer alone, and she no longer had to suffer scorn and exclusion.
He wanted to give her the most prestigious honor in the world.
