Chapter 1143: A past that can’t be erased!
After hanging up the phone, Xia Ning looked at the huge room and mulled over the words she had just heard on the phone. Saint Maria’s Cathedral. Images flashed through her mind. Blood, blood was everywhere.
A certain emotion in her heart was on the verge of bursting out. Her hands clutched the bed sheet tightly, the veins on her forehead bulging, and she broke out in cold sweat. Her eyes were wide open, and her body could not stop trembling. Suddenly, she held her head, and tears kept falling. She muttered to herself,”I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
At this moment, the phone that she had thrown aside suddenly rang.
She looked at the phone coldly and was about to smash it when she saw the caller ID. It was Zheng Ziming.
She clenched her phone tightly and tried to control her emotions. After a long time, she managed to control herself and picked up the phone.
“What’s wrong, Astria? why are you taking so long to answer the phone?” Zheng Ziming complained on the other end of the phone.
Hearing this familiar voice, the restlessness in Xia Ning’s body subsided a lot.
“I say, Asteria, look at the news on the internet. Is it really good for the two of you to show off your love every day? I’m so envious and jealous. ”
Xia Ning swallowed her saliva and leaned against the bed, staring blankly at the top of her head, still not saying a word.
“Astria, when are you and Qiao Yu going to get back together? but you guys got married and divorced in the United Kingdom, so China’s no such thing as getting back together. But there’s a problem with your household register. ” Zheng Ziming continued to speak on the other end of the phone, but he vaguely sensed that something was wrong.”Astria, are you listening?”
...
Xia Ning looked up and her gaze gradually focused. After a long time, she said in a low voice,””Ziming, do you think there’s a medicine in this world that can make people forget the past or those unhappy things?”
“What’s wrong, Astria?”
“Nothing, I was just thinking about some unhappy memories.” Xia Ning replied.
“Don’t think too much about it, astrya. The past is the past. We can’t change it anymore, but the most important thing is to grab hold of the present. You have a man who loves you, and you have a child who you love. To anyone, this life is already complete enough.”
“Yeah, it’s perfect enough.” Xia Ning closed her eyes slightly. Her voice was trembling with excitement as she said,”but some of the past can’t be erased. I’m working hard too. I’ve been working hard.”
“Astria, you’ve always been considerate of everyone. No matter what the result is, you’ve tired yourself out. You need to vent. If you can’t tell Qiao Yu, you can tell me.”
“Yes, I know. Thank you, Ziming.” Xia Ning said in a low voice.
“Do we still need to be polite between us?”
“Yes.” Xia Ning hung up the phone and lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
She closed her eyes slightly, adjusted her breathing, and calmed herself down. After some time, she got up, changed her clothes, and went out.
Taking time into consideration, Xia Ning asked Qiao Yu to pick her up at the place she was going to in the afternoon. She also brought her clothes and shoes for the dinner.
The meeting place was a high-end coffee shop in the city. When Xia Ning arrived, she followed the waiter and found Li Xiao, who had been waiting in the corner for a long time.
When Li Xiao saw Xia Ning walking over, she stood up and said with a smile,””You’re here. ”
“How could I not be present when my junior invited me?” Xia Ning said calmly.
This form of address had already pulled the relations.h.i.+p between the two apart. Today, they were only meeting as a senior and a junior, and it had nothing to do with friends.h.i.+p.
