Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After dinner, Qi Yunduo suggested going to KTV. She still could not bear to part with Zhao Yunxiao and wanted to spend more time with him.

However, Xu Jiaojiao had to go back and draw, so she rejected the invitation.

Zhao Yunxiao did not want to go either. He said that he had to go back and write his thesis. He was already in his fourth year and was about to graduate, so it was only natural for him to work on his thesis.

Qi Yunduo was an understanding girl. When she heard that Zhao Yunxiao wanted to write his thesis, she let him go.

Su Luo drove them home, dropping Zhao Yunxiao off along the way. When she reached the main road and waited for the red light, she suddenly heard someone honking.

Thinking that she had crossed the line, she looked through the rearview mirror and realized that she had not. She turned to look to the side and saw Xu Zhengyang driving. He smirked at her and glanced at Zhao Yunxiao, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

Zhao Yunxiao felt that something was wrong. “Do you know him?”

“I don’t,” Su Luo replied quickly.

Then, the green light lit up, and Xu Zhengyang rushed past, scaring Su Luo.

Sheesh, what a childish scumbag!

After returning home, Xu Jiaojiao began to draw. Qi Yunduo had wanted to discuss with her what to do next regarding Zhao Yunxiao…

However, when she saw how seriously Xu Jiaojiao was painting, Qi Yunduo was sensible enough not to disturb her and went online to ask for help instead.

Xu Jiaojiao continued to draw until the next morning. She was so tired that her shoulders were sore.

‘I’ll sleep for a while before I continue!’ Xu Jiaojiao thought to herself, ‘There’s not much left anyway. I should be able to make it in the afternoon if I take a nap.’

Hence, she went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into her pajamas, and fell asleep on the bed.

Sunlight shone into the ward and sparkled on the ground. There was a woman in her thirties lying in the ward with an IV drip in her wrist.

A little boy was lying beside the bed, his eyes sleepy. The woman stroked the little boy’s soft hair gently.

The little boy seemed to have sensed something and opened his eyes. “Mom, are you not feeling well?”

“No, I’m fine.” The woman’s gentle voice was like a breeze in spring.

“Will Daddy come to see you today?” There was anticipation in the little boy’s eyes.

“Probably!” the woman said gently.

Just then, the door of the ward was pushed open. Qi Shenbai walked in with a bouquet of flowers in his hands. The little boy was originally a little down, but when he saw Qi Shenbai, he suddenly became excited and ran to his side to hug him. “Daddy!”

Xu Jiaojiao woke up from her dream and realized that her pillow was wet. Yes, she was crying. She was sobbing as if her world was collapsing.

She lay on the bed and curled up, hoping that perhaps her heart would not hurt so much.

No, it did not seem to work. Tears kept flowing down, and her heart ached so much that it was difficult to breathe. Her head hurt so much that it felt like it was about to split.

The woman in the dream was gentle, kind, and elegant. Xu Jiaojiao could not help but feel sad.

It turned out that Lil Bai already had a wife and a child.

Then why did he still seduce her? Why did he lie to her?

Xu Jiaojiao felt wronged. She felt even more miserable than when Lu Zhuo ran away from the altar, when her brother despised her, and when she was being bullied.

She had never felt so upset in her life…

After crying for a long time, Xu Jiaojiao felt that her body had dried up. She could no longer shed a single tear.

She suddenly sat up. “I have to verify it with my own eyes. If it’s true, he has to apologize to me.”

Even if they were going to break up, she had to get to the bottom of everything. She had to see them with her own eyes, see how good that woman was, and see how Qi Shenbai would face her.

“Madam, do you want to come out for a meal?”At this moment, there was a knock on the door. It was the butler. He knew that Xu Jiaojiao had been painting all night last night and must be tired. She might even be sleeping now.

However, before Mr. Qi left, he had told them to make sure she ate, so the butler knocked on her door anyway.

Xu Jiaojiao acted as if she did not hear him. She got off the bed and stood on the ground. Her head buzzed, but she did not care. After she steadied herself, she went to the wardrobe to look for some clothes.

The butler stood at the door. Seeing that she did not respond, he went downstairs.

Xu Jiaojiao changed her clothes and asked Cang Xing to prepare the car. She also called Pei Yan to ask for an address, but told him not to tell Qi Shenbai.

In the car, Xu Jiaojiao kept crying, and the scene in her dream kept flashing in front of her.

Xu Jiaojiao was angry at herself. Why was she so weak-willed? Why was she crying so much?

She hated herself for not being strong enough, but she could not help it.

Cang Xing looked at Xu Jiaojiao from the rearview mirror and was a little worried. “Madam, maybe I’d better go with you.”

“No need.” Xu Jiaojiao tried her best to control her emotions, but her voice was nasal. “I’ve already contacted Pei Yan. He’ll pick me up when I get there.” “Okay!” Cang Xing agreed, thinking that it might be because the Madam missed Mr. Qi too much. Maybe that’s why she was crying..
