Xue Lingxue laughed out loud, "What nonsense! If there is a chance, I will definitely be willing to do it! It's just some gossip, what's the big deal! Hey! I dream of freedom, but this kind of thing can only be dreamed of. The reality is that I can't convince my parents. They gave birth to me and raised me, and I can't really resist without caring about anything. That would be too conscienceless.
Thank you for supporting me over the past year. If it weren't for your constant encouragement, I would not have been able to persevere until now. I have made up my mind that if this marriage is unavoidable, I will accept it.
As long as we get married, I will have accomplished my mission. If I really can't live with him, I can just fight him. I will learn Taekwondo and Kung Fu. I don't believe I can't win!"
Xue Lingxue clenched his fists fiercely, full of fighting spirit.
Chen Xinyue laughed so hard that she fell down, holding her stomach, unable to straighten her back.
Without Zhang Jingxuan in the UK, even the air became a lot fresher. Xue Lingxue's pressure was reduced by more than half, and she performed better. After her thesis was passed, she successfully obtained her diploma.
Not to mention Chen Xinyue, her goals have always been clear. She has been a top student since she started studying abroad. Now that she has graduated and is preparing to return to China, her tutor is reluctant to let her go and specifically wants to keep her.
Seeing that Chen Xinyue was determined to return to China, he had to give up.
The two of them discussed the time of returning home with Chen Ruiyu and Qu Zhiyang, and immediately went back to pack their luggage. They sent part of the luggage back to China first, and kept the important things with them.
Before leaving, Chen Xinyue went shopping and took a car to the villa area in the suburbs alone.
After ringing the doorbell.
A cute little girl opened the door for her, "Mary, I miss you so much! Mom said you won't come to teach me anymore, why?"
Chen Xinyue touched Jane's head lovingly and gave her her gift. "I really can't teach you anymore because I have to go back to China. Are you lonely, Jane?"
Jane nodded dejectedly, "I'm often alone and have no friends."
Chen Xinyue looked at the villa across the street, "I remember John said there were two kids in that house. Can't they play with you?"
Jane sighed, "They are David and Lily, they are about my age, but their mother doesn't like them to go to other people's houses to play because they are mixed-race, not pure British."
Chen Xinyue was stunned for a moment, and asked softly: "Will Jane discriminate against them?"
Jane shook her head.
Chen Xinyue's smile deepened. "In this case, Jane can take the initiative to go and play with them. I just bought a lot of cakes, so we can share them. If you don't dare, I can accompany you. I am also Chinese. Maybe David and Lily's mother will be more friendly to me."
Jane's eyes lit up and she clenched her fists excitedly. "Mary, I want to try it myself. If it doesn't work, can you help me again?"
Chen Xinyue readily agreed.
Jane carried the bag and went diagonally to the opposite side. Chen Xinyue happened to see her talking to Annie through the glass window. However, Jane did not go in. Instead, she opened the bag at the door to prove that she was really there to share the cake with David and Lily.
Anne smiled politely at first, but her expression suddenly changed when she saw the photo dropped from the bag. She picked it up first and looked at Jane seriously, "Where did you get this photo?"
Jane was a little scared, but she answered honestly.
Chen Xinyue noticed Annie looking at her and immediately drank her tea as if nothing had happened.
Soon Jane led Annie into the house and nervously handed the photos to Chen Xinyue, "Mary, Annie said she wants to see you, and I'm sorry I messed up the photos."
Chen Xinyue made a surprised expression, and then pulled Jane into her arms, "It's okay, it's my fault. I had too many things on the way here, so I just put them in a bag. I was so happy to see you that I forgot about it for a moment. Anyway, the photos are still there, I can sort them out."
Jane breathed a sigh of relief and smiled brightly again.
Chen Xinyue immediately opened a cake for her and said, "Eat it. I picked it especially for you. It's all your favorite flavors."
"Thank you, Mary." Jane went to the living room with the cake.
Chen Xinyue then looked at Annie in confusion, stood up and shook hands with her, "Hello, what can I do for you?"
Anne looked at Jane who was eating seriously and laughed uncomfortably. "I have some questions to ask you. Can I invite you for a cup of coffee?"
Chen Xinyue was a little embarrassed. "Can we do it another day? I came here mainly to say goodbye to Jane today. I want to spend some time with her."
Anne looked a little unnatural, and couldn't help asking, "Are these photos all yours?"
Chen Xinyue nodded calmly and chuckled twice. "These are all the photos I took after coming to the UK. Some are of friends, some are of scenery, and some are to record the moments of life. Because I am going back to China, I developed all the photos. Is there any problem?"
Annie hesitated, took a deep breath, and said with a smile, "I do have something to ask you. Is tomorrow okay? Tomorrow morning in the coffee shop, I want to ask you about some photos."
Chen Xinyue nodded and exchanged contact information with Annie.
After Anne left, she went to the living room to have snacks and chat with Jane.
She stayed at Jane's house all afternoon until Jane's parents came back and John took her back.
Annie stood by the second-floor window and watched the car go away.
The next morning, Chen Xinyue arrived at the agreed coffee shop on time.
Anne has arrived. She is dressed elegantly like a lady and looks delicate and beautiful.
Chen Xinyue was dressed casually, and the two of them looked like they were not the same kind of people at all.
Annie's eyes flashed with confusion, as if she didn't understand how someone like Chen Xinyue could be Zhang Jingxuan's friend, so she got straight to the point and asked, "Hello, Mary, my name is Annie. Excuse me, I asked about your situation. I heard that you are Jane's tutor and a student. I want to ask how you know Mr. Zhang?"
Chen Xinyue's face darkened, and she looked unhappy. "You investigated me? Don't you know that this is an invasion of privacy?"
"I'm sorry, I really care too much. Please forgive my intrusion."
Annie obviously didn't expect Chen Xinyue to have such an outburst, and she immediately apologized sincerely.
Chen Xinyue pursed her lips and looked at her warily, "Okay, why did you ask me out?"
"Um. Can I see those photos from yesterday again?" Annie pleaded.
Chen Xinyue hesitated for two seconds before handing her the photos. Annie looked at each one and she explained, "This is our school. I came to the UK to study here. This is the library. These are my classmates, our group photo. This is my best friend."
Annie pulled out the photo taken in the apartment. It showed a man and a woman sitting on the sofa. The man looked lazy and the woman was pouting. They were very close to each other.
Because the photo was taken from behind the two people, only their side faces were captured. From this angle it looked like a woman was acting coquettishly with a man, but in reality it was Xue Lingxue and Zhang Jingxuan arguing.
Annie pointed at the man and woman above, her expression slightly angry, "Who are this man and this woman?" (End of this chapter)
