Qiao Xi’s pupils constricted. Something she wanted? Did this woman know what she wanted? Her heart was beating fast, and she didn’t know how to respond.
Qiao Xi licked her dry lips and suppressed the excitement in her heart. She said in a low voice, “The car I called is about to arrive. I don’t know what you’re talking about…” Her pupils trembled, making it seem even more obvious that she was being insincere.

She was in a very bad state right now. Her combed hair was a little messy, her forehead was covered in sweat, and it was oily under the sun. Her face was red from running just now, and her lips were dry and scalded. She looked terrible. She was different from Su Ling, who was a socialite that was exquisite from top to toe. How could such a person have any perseverance and conscience?
Su Ling chuckled and said casually, “I don’t have time to waste on hypocritical persuasion. I’ll only give you one chance. If you still have your so-called conscience, then accept your fate. If you still want those things that you’ve been hoping for, then get in the car. It’s up to you to choose.” After that, she didn’t look at Qiao Xi anymore, as if she really didn’t care.
Qiao Xi’s heart tightened. Should she get in the car? It was not a loss to go with the woman and take a look. She was useless, and what did she have that others could scheme for? At most, if it was something she couldn’t accept, she would just get out of the car. It’s just a free ride, and she would even save money! Qiao Xi’s eyes flickered as countless reasons appeared in her mind. In the end, they turned into determination as she opened the car door with trembling hands.
“Put the things in the trunk.” Su Ling revealed a smile that implied this situation was within her expectations. She waved her hand and her eyes were filled with determination. The car door closed, and the two figures gradually disappeared.
“Sister-in-law!” On the other side, Ji Qian was holding onto her phone when she suddenly shouted with an inexplicable excitement in her voice. She sprawled on the sofa with a fawning look in her eyes. “Sister-in-law, are you going to be at home the whole day? Do you have anything to do?”
Shen Hanxing, who was reading a book, raised her head and asked with a smile, “What’s wrong?”
“My friend said that rural tourism was opened in the suburbs and that it’s really great! Since everyone’s free, why don’t we go have some fun?” Ji Qian tried to hint. As she said that, she even acted coquettishly to grandma and shook her hand. “Grandma, Grandma, let’s go there and play together. My friend said that you can pick fruits and fish there, and you can reminisce about the past!”
Ji Ning had also seen the photos posted by others on her social media platform. The scenery was beautiful and tranquil, and she couldn’t help but feel moved. Her eyes were filled with slight anticipation as she looked at Shen Hanxing.

I can’t walk.” She had suffered enough in her life, so she didn’t have any interest in reminiscing about the past. However, she wouldn’t dampen the spirits of the younger generation. She said affectionately, “If you guys want to go, then go together and have fun for a few days.”
“You’re not old, Grandma.” Ji Ning pursed her lips and laughed quietly, then denied in a low voice, “You’re still young, Grandma.”
“That’s right. Grandma is still young.” Ji Qian’s words became even sweeter. “Grandma, why don’t you come along? How can we be at ease if you are at home alone?”
“You only know how to say nice things to coax people. I’m not so old that I can’t move.” The smile on grandma’s face deepened and she patted Ji Qian’s hand, still refusing. “I’m not interested in these things. You young people can have more fun together. Go ahead and relax.” There were servants at home to take care of her, so they didn’t have to worry about her.
Seeing how determined her grandmother was, Ji Qian turned to look at Shen Hanxing. Everyone else had gone with their families and had a great time. When she thought about the photos her friends had sent her, she felt like dying from jealousy. She wanted to go out with her family too!
“Since you want to go, then let’s go.” Shen Hanxing couldn’t stand Ji Qian’s and Ji Ning’s gazes and finally decided. “Let’s stay over there for a night. Call Ji Mo to come down and ask Mr. Ji and Ji Zhou.”
“You’re so great, Sister-in-law!” Ji Qian cheered and hurriedly went to inform Ji Mo, who was in the studio upstairs.
