The smile on Li Xiao’s face gradually disappeared as she watched the figure leave with the things. She picked up a spoon and stirred the coffee.

What an innocent woman, she even dared to threaten her. Did she think that if Qiao Yu found out about this, he would still help and protect her like he always did?

She didn’t understand. She had already given birth to another man’s child, so why was she still so self-righteously staying by Qiao Yu’s side? if it was her, she would have been too ashamed to face anyone.

A man like Qiao Yu, who exuded a cold and Noble aura, needed a pure and innocent woman by his side. Thinking about it carefully, Xia Ning wasn’t pure and innocent in the past. She would rather not know her after reading all her dark history. It was an insult to them for such a woman to be in the upper class.

Why did she try so hard to become the heir of miles South Corporation? wasn’t it because she wanted to be by Qiao Yu’s side one day? It was obvious that she was infinitely close to this goal.

Li Xiao picked up her coffee cup and took a sip. She let out a deep breath. At this moment, she felt extremely carefree.

As soon as they left the café, Xia Ning’s face darkened. How could she be in a good mood when someone brought up the past, and the one that she couldn’t face the most?

She thought that it would be a secret that only she knew, but she didn’t expect that paper couldn’t contain fire.

She looked at her watch; it was only 3:00 am. She looked up at the street. The sun was shining brightly, so she had no choice but to move to another place and wait for Qiao Yu to pick her up.

Xia Ning noticed that there was a café across the road and was about to cross the road to rest.

At that moment, her phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Jin Yan.

At the thought of not contacting Jin Yan for a while, Xia Ning felt a little guilty and picked up the call.

“Jin Yan.”

“I haven’t been in contact with you for a few days. What have you been busy with recently?” Jin Yan’s voice was heard from the other end of the phone, and Xia Ning felt an inexplicable sense of relief.

“I just came back from Hawaii. I’ve been promoting the movie city of despair recently. How about you?” She asked.

“I’m preparing for the shooting of the movie, of course. I’ve already made arrangements for the movie in province W. The rest will be in province X, but it’ll be done in the next two days.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for your notice.” Xia Ning thought for a while and asked,”do you have time now?”

“I’m free. Why?” “You’re treating me to a meal?” asked Jin Yan.

“I can’t eat. Qiao Yu has a dinner appointment tonight. I want to go with him.” Xia Ning said,”I want to buy you a drink.”

“I can’t today, I have something to deal with.”

“Okay, another day then.” Xia Ning reminded him,”I know you’ve put all your heart and soul into this movie, but you have to take care of your health.”

“Yeah, you too.”

Xia Ning ended the call and looked at her phone, feeling a little empty at this moment. To be honest, she needed someone to talk to her for a while and she needed to resolve it.

The first person she thought of was Jin Yan, because he was the one who had pulled her back from the edge of death and despair.

Unfortunately, she had forgotten that Jin Yan might not always have time to accompany her. There were some things that she had to face on her own.

But she couldn’t vent the pent-up feelings in her heart. She felt that her chest was tight and her head was a little dizzy. Perhaps she needed to go back to United Kingdom and see a psychiatrist.

In the living room of the villa, Jin Yan was sitting on the sofa with a pile of documents on the table in front of him. He was holding a phone in his hand.

The huge villa was extremely quiet. The female voice on the phone was very clear.”I saw her leave in a daze. Does it hurt?”

“You don’t have to tell me about this. Just do as I say.” Jin Yan hung up the phone and placed his phone on the table. He picked up a document and read it, but he didn’t flip a page for a long time.
