Chapter 14 Farewell
The noise in the bar was so loud that for a moment, Lin Xiao thought he had misheard.
"W-what?!"
His exclamation of disbelief immediately attracted the inquiring gazes of his friends around him. He was so scared that he waved his hands repeatedly and quickly found a quiet place.
"Did I hear correctly, Sister Ning? What did you want me to do just now?"
Lin Xiao's father had business dealings with the Jiang family. When he entered school, he happened to be one grade younger than Jiang Wanning and Su Xu. He usually liked to hang out with these two big sisters.
It can be said that I witnessed with my own eyes that Jiang Wanning, who was once so arrogant and glorious, was willing to sink into depravity for love and gave up the shining life she once had.
At that time, Lin Xiao felt very sorry about this, and he and Su Xu scolded Shi Wang behind his back for a long time.
Now, after receiving Jiang Wanning's affirmative answer again, the joy on his face was almost beyond words.
"Of course I can do it, Sister Ning! Don't worry about me doing it!"
"Have you really decided to come back? That's great! Tomorrow at the old place, have my younger brother host a welcoming banquet for you. I guarantee it'll be grand and celebrate the return of our Lemon King!"
Jiang Wanning was amused by Lin Xiao's middle school aura on the other end of the phone. She chatted with him for a while and hung up the phone after confirming that they would meet at Zero Degree Bar tomorrow night.
Almost at the same time, a message alert popped up on her phone screen.
It was sent by Su Xu.
I have to say that my best friend is really efficient. It hasn't been long since we talked on the phone and the other party sent me an address.
[This is the house of my boyfriend's cousin's friend. It's vacant at the moment, so you can stay there for a while.]
Looking at this long list of intimate relationships, Jiang Wanning's mouth twitched slightly.
Before she could reply, two more messages came quickly.
[Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go accompany my little brother, otherwise he will be angry later.]
Jiang Wanning looked at another message, which was an intimate photo of Su Xu and her current boyfriend.
The latter shows the possessive attitude of a little wolfdog, which has nothing to do with the word "milk puppy".
She shook her head, wanting to admire her best friend's ability to judge people, but then she thought of Shi Wang. She felt that she was about the same as her, so she said thank you to her.
However, after this message was sent out, it fell into oblivion and there was no further response from the other end.
Jiang Wanning looked down at the time and it was already three o'clock in the morning.
After all this trouble, she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes. After a simple wash, she took a short nap and it was the next morning.
After checking out of the hotel front desk, Jiang Wanning took a taxi directly to the address Su Xu sent her last night.
It was in an upscale residential area in the west of the city, not far from the location that Shi Wang gave her yesterday.
She did not go back to her apartment in the east of the city to get her things. After all, the most important things to her had been completely lost, and the rest were just insignificant possessions.
It is true that when she chose to stay in Shenzhen with great enthusiasm, she never thought that she would be so alone when she left.
At this point, Jiang Wanning couldn't help but laugh at herself. Just as she was about to use the password to open the electronic lock, she didn't expect that the door was pushed open from the inside first.
The beams of light in the winter morning fell on the other person, and a hint of surprise flashed in the man's eyes, who had obviously just woken up.
"Senior Jiang?"
It turned out to be Xie Yanchuan!
......
At the same time, Shi Wang on the other side had already taken Xu Moli back to the apartment from the hospital.
Qin Huifang received a call yesterday and rushed over early this morning. When she saw them coming back, she hurried out to greet them.
"Hey, Jasmine, come and let Auntie see if you're okay. Why were you so careless yesterday?"
Seeing the woman's eyes intentionally or unintentionally sweeping over her relatively flat belly, Xu Moli turned around generously and let people look at her: "I'm fine, Auntie."
"The doctor said I was lucky. I fell from such a high place and only suffered some scratches. I need to rest for a while. I'm sorry to bother you, Auntie."
Seeing this, Qin Huifang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
An eager smile appeared on her fat face again, which was completely different from the arrogant attitude she usually had in front of Jiang Wanning.
"It's no trouble, no trouble. We will all be a family from now on, so why be polite?"
"This is the breakfast I bought when I first came here. You and Shi Wang came back from the hospital so early, so you must not have eaten yet. You must be starving, right?"
As she spoke, she hurriedly welcomed the two of them into the house and led them to the dining table.
There were several steamed dumplings and rice porridge wrapped in plastic bags on it.
Shi Wang couldn't help but frown. When Jiang Wanning was around, she was always the one who prepared breakfast at home.
She always said that the fast food sold outside was not clean and hygienic enough, so she would get up much earlier than him every morning to prepare a table full of delicious breakfast.
At that time, he also said that the other party was doing something unnecessary and that it would be better to rest for a while with that time.
Now it seems that his stomach has become spoiled. Smelling the horribly greasy dumplings and the bland white porridge on the table, Shi Wang really has no appetite at all.
"Mom, didn't Wan Ning come back to get her things?"
Shi Wang looked at the things in the living room that had been moved out of Jiang Wanning's room. They were still placed in the same place as before. He thought about how she had clearly promised to be well-behaved yesterday. Could it be that she was still angry with him?
"She's coming back to get her things and move out? I haven't seen her come back, so could it be that she's changed her mind?"
"If you ask me, that girl may look obedient and well-behaved, but she's actually quite cunning..."
Seeing that the two were not moving, Qin Huifang had already moved to the dining table and started to eat heartily.
"Why are you still standing there? Come and have dinner."
Shi Wang's brows couldn't help but furrowed even deeper: "I don't have much of an appetite, so I won't eat for now."
He returned to the room feeling exhausted, but soon Xu Moli followed him in.
"Shi Wang, Wan Ning is young. Maybe she was mad at me last night and went to stay at a friend's house. Don't bother with her."
"Besides, you were exhausted all day yesterday. Go take a shower and rest for a while."
Jiang Wanning doesn't have many friends in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
But for some reason, Shi Wang's mind flashed back to the scene of running into Jiang Wanning and Xie Yanchuan walking together that day.
His originally somewhat worried mood instantly calmed down, and he went to the bathroom at Xu Moli's suggestion.
Xu Moli stood there, watching the hot mist rising from the bathroom, but her expression was gloomy.
At this moment, a message suddenly popped up on the phone that Shi Wang had placed on the table before going to take a shower.
It turned out to be a farewell text message from Jiang Wanning.
Xu Moli glanced at the content above, and her eyes instantly became gloomy.
