Chapter 539: 539, have you made up with your Xiaobai?
“I know what I should do.”
Xu Jing gently interrupted him, “Brother-in-law, don’t worry. I know your difficulties. No one else will know about what happened in the past. Over the years, you’ve been secretly helping me; you helped me divorce from Qu Zhi Zun, then you helped me return to Nancheng, and found me a job. You also helped Yunyao and Xu Rui get together…When she caused such a big scandal, you still reconciled and helped me buy this house and sent her to study in Italy. Don’t worry, I remember all these funds, bit by bit. When I have money, I will pay you back, I promise.”
Mo Yaoxiong didn’t say anything.
Xu Jing didn’t say anything else either.
After dinner, she escorted him to the door.
“Alright, I’m going. You should rest.” Mo Yaoxong put on his shoes and left.
Xu Jing stood there, listening to his footsteps slowly departing. When the elevator emitted a “ding” sound, she closed the door, turned around quickly, and went into the bedroom. Opening the curtain next to the balcony, she looked at the area below.
As expected, the man’s figure appeared after a while.
Even though Mo Yaoxiong was almost fifty years old, he still maintained his physique. It was apparent that he exercised regularly. His back was straight when he walked, his hair was dyed black, and one would think he was only in his thirties looking at him from this angle.
Not until the man got into a black Audi and drove away slowly did Xu Jing close the curtain and sit down in the living room.
She looked at the nearly untouched food on the table, a cold smirk slowly emerging from her beautiful eyebrows.
Then, suddenly, she picked up the bowl of soup and threw it on the floor.
A “clang” sounded as the porcelain shards flew around, and soup spilled all over the place.
She had told herself not to think about the past anymore. Everyone has their own fate. Clearly, her fate was different than Xu Xian’s.
But why!
Why can’t even her daughter be spared!
Why!

As the Spring Festival approached, the festive atmosphere in Nancheng seemed to become more prevalent.
Although people no longer cared much for the traditional New Year’s celebration due to the improved living standards, some customs still need to be followed, especially for families with the elderly and children. They would have a more festive atmosphere.
Mo Weiyi was sitting in the car, sleepily watching the bustling streets passing by.
Then, suddenly, her phone rang.
Taking a look at it, surprisingly, it was Su Wanwan calling.
She answered the phone immediately, “Wanwan.”
Su Wanwan asked, “Are you still in the countryside?”
“No, I’m back.”
“Good, I’m having a meal at a cafe downstairs of the TV station. Their dessert is delicious; you would definitely like it. I’ll send you the location so you can come and eat next time.”
“I’ll come and meet you!” Mo Weiyi suddenly said.
**
Half an hour later, Mo Weiyi arrived at the dessert shop.
Su Wanwan had let Zhao Qianqian go home and also ordered a pot of rice for her.
As Mo Weiyi sat down and began to devour her food, Su Wanwan raised her eyebrows, “Are you that hungry? Where did you come from?”
“The hospital.”
“Who’s sick?”
“Xiaobai.”
“Uh…”, Su Wanwan sighed, “You went to see him again even though you know your chances are slim?”
Mo Weiyi smiled, “I went to feed him soup, and I planned to go home and sleep afterward. But then you mentioned that this place has good food, so I came right over to see you – doesn’t that mean I love you the most?”
But Su Wanwan looked at the time, “Hurry up and eat. I have to go back to work.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
She saw that Su Wanwan had her work badge hanging around her neck. It looked like she was putting on a tough act.
“How do you feel about the internship?”
Su Wanwan sighed, “It’s alright. I only help out with scripts every day. It feels a little dull.”
The TV station was hierarchical, with established veterans having a lot of say. The interns and even the newly-hired official employees always had to start from the bottom and work their way up.
Su Wanwan’s internship supervisor, Xia Mei, was twenty-eight and not yet married. She was considered a strong woman.
Xia Mei had several people under her, so even though she was arranged by Di Chenghe to mentor Su Wanwan, the intern, she was too busy to even care for her. So in the end, Su Wanwan spent each day getting familiar with the role of a director in the TV station while doing odds jobs.
Mo Weiyi nodded as if she understood, “I’ll go in with you later to take a look.”
“Look at what? Handsome guys? There are no handsome guys behind the scenes!”
The only good-looking one was probably Di Chenghe, right?
But Di didn’t often come to the TV station. Since arranging supervisors that day, she had not seen him.
Mo Weiyi laughed, “I’ll go and give you some support, so no one can bully you.”
“Get out of here,” Su Wanwan handed her a napkin, “Hurry up and eat and leave. Don’t disturb me while I’m working.”
“Baby Wanwan, I’ve barely spent half an hour with you.” Mo Weiyi pouted, feeling unhappy.
Seeing her act cute like this, Su Wanwan squinted her beautiful eyes, “Did you get back with Xiaobai?”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
She couldn’t hide anything from best friends.
So, she could only share the whole story.
Su Wanwan had a shocked expression, “Damn, did you make Mr. Xiao throw up blood in anger?”
“I was almost scared to death at the time.”
Mo Weiyi still felt scared even thinking about it now.
The two of them chatted until they lost track of time.
It wasn’t until Mo Weiyi yawned that Su Wanwan jumped up in surprise as she saw the time, “Damn, I’m late!”
