He Xiaoqi was crying with tears streaming down her face, clinging to the slide rail, looking extremely embarrassed. When Shen Jian妮 rushed over and laughed, her face turned even more awkwardly red. She couldn’t care less, her mind heated up, and she shouted, "You shameless slut trying to seduce my brother, how good can you be? You’re the one who’s always caught up in scandals, take care of yourself first." The moment He Xiaoqi opened her mouth, the director frowned deeply, but fortunately, the class bell rang, and the children were already taken into the classroom, so no child was poisoned by such words. Understanding what President Feng wanted her to teach, she quietly noted it in her heart. However, Shen Jian妮 was not happy when she heard it. Not to mention that she didn’t have the guts to seduce He Qimo, even if she did, it would only be to get a few more job invites, an uncompleted seduction attempt at best. Besides, how could He Xiaoqi say this about her in public... How was she going to act in dramas after this! At once, she pushed away Xiao Liu, who was about to pull her away, tied her carefully styled big wavy hair with a rubber band, swung her handbag, and said, "Come on, make another baseless accusation!" He Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, not daring to speak. Shen Jian妮 pointed her handbag at He Xiaoqi’s nose and continued, "He Xiaoqi, let me tell you, I have nothing to do with your brother. I’m still a pure maiden who hasn’t even held a man’s hand! You better not slander me every day, slandering your brother, or I’ll sue you for defamation. Also, don’t think just because you have a mouth that you can show off your three-sentence lack of character intelligence! This is a kindergarten, have some decency when you speak, watch your foul mouth or you’ll ruin your karma and find it hard to give birth in the future!" Shen Jian妮’s words were like a machine gun, making He Xiaoqi’s face look awkward and fueling her anger, her tearful eyes trembling with rage, she retorted, "Who are you saying will have a hard time giving birth! As if you sound better than me when you talk!" Upon hearing this, Shen Jian妮 laughed, folded her arms, and said leisurely, "Hey, I do sound better than you, not to mention I don’t curse when I talk. Even if I do, I don’t use dirty words, you can’t argue with that." Shen Jian妮 was pleased, because no matter what, her high school level literary skills had improved, and she had definitely outshined He Xiaoqi. The people around were completely dumbfounded. Especially Liang Yichao, holding a cigarette between his fingers, he wanted to smoke but saw it was a kindergarten, and didn’t dare. He wanted to put it back in the cigarette box, but he’d never seen such a lively scene of a woman’s quarrel, which amused him so much he wanted to bring over a sofa and a plate of seeds to watch.... Immediately, Shen Jian妮 and He Xiaoqi went back and forth in their argument. Liang Yichao couldn’t help but find it amusing. The director, however, couldn’t listen anymore and furrowed her brow deeply. After a pause, the director interrupted, "Alright, since Miss He has already enrolled in our kindergarten, let’s follow our kindergarten’s rules. We need to continue with classes—you all making such a ruckus, what does that look like... Mr. Liang’s people should change into security uniforms as required, and Miss He will now go to the senior class for lessons. As for this lady..." The director looked at Shen Jian妮. Shen Jian妮 immediately smiled brightly, "Shen Jian妮." "Oh..." Finally realizing who this familiar-looking person was, the director was enlightened, aware that offending anyone was unwise. She silently promised never to enroll these three people’s children into the kindergarten in the future. She then smiled formally and said, "It’s not convenient for our kindergarten to have non-parents inside, Miss Shen, please leave as well." With the director’s polite request to leave, everyone knew it was not good to cause further disturbance. Moreover, Shen Jian妮 understood that once He Xiaoqi entered the kindergarten, given her princess temper, she’d have plenty of time to cry in the future. She then winked at He Xiaoqi and said, "Alright He Xiaoqi, I’m leaving now, I’ll make sure to tell your brother about your current situation." Her words made He Xiaoqi’s eyes redden even more, especially since she couldn’t verbally defeat Shen Jian妮 after a long argument. Plus, her brother no longer cared for her, having driven away and left her with Mr. Wen, then Mr. Liang came over per Feng Chengjin’s request, confiscated all her cards, handbags, and phone, and left her here. Now completely isolated, Liang Yichao even threatened her. If she dared to speak disrespectfully or do anything excessive to any child, be it verbally or physically, they’d cut off her food and starve her to death. She dared not do anything, dared not say anything. What embarrassed her most was her pride—a dignified He Family lady being mocked to the level of a kindergarten...thinking of her former playmates, she imagined the humiliation being worse than any ordeal if they found out... She would become the first heiress in Rong City’s second-generation circle to have her intelligence fully despised. Her reputation was utterly ruined... He Xiaoqi felt her face and heart twisted into the deepest knot. Unable to kill, unable to cry to death. He Xiaoqi was thrown into the kindergarten, with guards in uniform arranged to watch over her. While Shen Jian妮 went off with Mr. Liang to a café for a drink. This wasn’t a big deal, friends as they are, it’s fate to know each other within circles. Shen Jian妮’s fiery temper reminded Mr. Liang a bit of Yu Wei, so he found it amusing and they hit it off rather well. Chatting away, Shen Jian妮 completely forgot about her schedule, leaving Xiao Liu frustrated and almost in tears. What made Xiao Liu feel headache, face ache, and stomach cramps were the contents of their conversation. Liang Yichao: "Hey, I didn’t realize Miss Shen could act so well, and she’s just as fiery in life." Shen Jian妮 was proud, "Haha, not at all. It’s just like Zhou Yu and Huang Gai appreciating each other." Xiao Liu twitched his lips but said nothing. Liang Yichao laughed even more, "You even use idioms! Impressive, I appreciate knowledgeable women, a beauty and a talent, rare indeed. But isn’t the second half of the idiom not quite right?" "Is it wrong?" Shen Jian妮 was surprised, thought for a while, and said, "Then what’s the correct one?" Liang Yichao was momentarily stunned, English words flashing through his mind, he shrugged, "I don’t know, maybe something like being up to no good? Let’s check it on Baidu." "Okay." Shen Jian妮 took out her phone. The two leaned over to look at the entry. Xiao Liu twitched his lips, despairing over these two failing in their Chinese language, sorrowing over the rise and revival of Chinese culture. For these two who haven’t even read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he looked at the kindergarten opposite and sighed deeply... Pinghu District, a villa. Gu Zixuan woke up, and it was already past noon. Faced with Feng Chengjin, who was anxious for her to conceive, Gu Zixuan felt both some reassurance and humor, yet also an indescribable pressure. After all, considering Feng Chengjin’s fearless temperament... He must be in a tough situation at home to want to marry her this way... Gu Zixuan’s thoughts were rather wandering. Just then, Feng Chengjin received a call, his expression darkened as he said he needed to go out. Because of what happened yesterday, Gu Zixuan knew Feng Chengjin wouldn’t easily let go of these matters, so she didn’t mind much. She smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright." Feng Chengjin looked at her, as if he wanted to say something but didn’t, eventually pursing his lips and choosing silence. He kissed her hair, "Wait for me to come back." The rightful source is N0velFire.ɴet Gu Zixuan nodded, answering "Hmm." Gu Zixuan sat in the living room for a while, thinking about He Qimo whom she saw yesterday, already emaciated and haggard, and the sorrowful words he spoke, feeling a heavy weight in her heart. Finally, she thought about the past eight years, the mutual torment, and too many explanations and apologies left unsaid. She couldn’t say she completely forgave He Qimo for once disregarding her, allowing his family to bully her. But after the misunderstanding was resolved, his repeated avowals of "loving her" felt like a knife, stabbing into her heart over and over again. After a pause, she picked up her phone and called He Qimo’s number. The ringtone sounded bit by bit until a cold female voice announced that he didn’t answer. After thinking for a moment, she called Liang Xi’s number. The call connected quickly. But at the moment the voice echoed, Liang Xi’s voice, be it joyful, helpless, or anxious, eventually turned into a slight tremble, "Madam, why are you calling at this time?" Liang Xi didn’t want to change his address, out of persistence, out of the sadness from witnessing the president’s tumultuous love life, the last bit he wanted to hold on to. Gu Zixuan’s heart ached a bit too; she smiled and said, "I’m looking for He Qimo, he..." Before she could finish, Liang Xi, as if understanding her, said, "The president is in the hospital; he went to the emergency room last night. If you want to see him, just come...I, honestly, don’t really understand if the president still wants to go on living..." In an instant, Gu Zixuan’s blood felt frozen.
