“Why are you crying?” Shen Hanxing sighed helplessly. Through her tears, Qiao Xi saw Shen Hanxing pass her a piece of tissue. She then patted her shoulder and said gently, “The past is the past. You have to look forward, understand?”
“I know, I’m just happy…” Qiao Xi nodded hard and choked. “I’m so happy, Mrs. Ji. Thank you…” The best thing she had ever done in her life was to give Shen Hanxing directions. She never thought that the thing she had mustered up her courage to do would give her a new life. She looked at Shen Hanxing through her tears. Her heart was filled with admiration, envy, bitterness, and despair. Mrs. Ji was really beautiful and warm. She was like a glowing object that people could not help but chase after. It was no wonder that she could attract an outstanding man like President Ji. Shen Hanxing’s elegance, confidence, and calmness were things that she would never be able to imitate in her entire life. No matter how hard she tried to get close to her, she would only be imitating her.

She covered her face with the documents and lowered her head, saying in a low voice, “It’s getting late. I won’t disturb Mrs. Ji’s rest. I’ll take my leave first…” She hurriedly turned around as if she was escaping.
Shen Hanxing shook her head with a smile. Qiao Xi’s personality made her feel inferior and shy easily. She was also sensitive and thoughtful. She hoped that Qiao Xi could interact with more people and experience more things at the foundation so that she could improve on that.
Qiao Xi’s hangover soup was pretty good. Shen Hanxing had a good night’s sleep after drinking it. When she woke up the next day, the sky was bright.
“Sister-in-law, you’re awake?” When Ji Qian saw Shen Hanxing coming down the stairs, her eyes sparkled with joy and she ran over hurriedly. “Sister-in-law, how was the wedding yesterday?”
“What do you mean by ‘How was it’? What else can a wedding be like?” Shen Hanxing asked in confusion.
Ji Qian’s question was really strange. She didn’t seem like someone who was interested in these things. Could it be that a small news agency had reported yesterday’s incident?
“Your sister-in-law just woke up. Let her eat something first.” Ji Ning followed and gently tugged at Ji Qian’s hand, saying in a low voice, “If there’s anything you want to say, say it later.”
Ji Qian, who had always been unable to hide things, paused and pouted. “Alright, you can eat first then, sister-in-law.”
“What happened?” Shen Hanxing smiled and shook her head when she saw Ji Qian’s aggrieved expression. “Go on, I’ll listen while I eat.”

“Sister-in-law is the best.” Ji Qian immediately cheered and followed Shen Hanxing with sparkling eyes like a little tail. “Sister-in-law, the Lu Corporation and the Su Family’s stocks fell today. There’s a lot of commotion on the internet! Previously, the marriage between them caused such a huge commotion. Everyone was saying that the Lu Corporation was about to take off!” Ji Qian mumbled, “One of my friends even wanted to bring Lu Nuannuan along. I can’t stand her the most. I can’t stand the way she acts like her brother is the best in the world. I can’t be bothered to play with her!”
Shen Hanxing was deep in thought. Most of the time, the interaction between the children at home reflected the family’s attitude. Ji Qian’s friends had never brought Lu Nuannuan out to play for so many years. Of course, they didn’t suddenly become friendly to Lu Nuannuan because they found out that she was special. Everyone had their own circle. For a socialite like Ji Qian, who was destined not to inherit the family business and had no interest in managing the company, the friends she had were not strong women. Even so, her friends had a keen sense of smell and wanted to hang out with Lu Nuannuan. This was, of course, because of their family’s instructions. It seemed that many people in the circle were optimistic about the future development of the Lu Corporation.
“Did someone report the Lu Corporation’s financial problems? Or was the project not up to standard?” Shen Hanxing’s eyes flashed with understanding. “When did this happen?”
“Sister-in-law, how did you know?” Ji Qian’s eyes widened in disbelief. “I haven’t even told you anything yet!”
Shen Hanxing smiled when she saw Ji Qian’s expression, but her eyes darkened.
“Did you already know that this would happen?” Ji Ning pursed her lips and looked over, her fawn-like eyes filled with curiosity. She had always had sharp instincts, and Shen Hanxing didn’t try to hide it. She smiled and nodded. “I vaguely know a little.”
It seemed that Lu Feng was really anxious. Since things had already gotten to this point, he probably took action before dawn, right? Lu Shaoyang’s wedding was enough to make Lu Guo’s dream reach its peak. Every day that followed would be a nightmare that he would not be able to accept.
