Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Zheng Ziming was lying in bed making the call. Hearing Xia Ning’s words, he sat up at once.
How did Asteria know about this? Did Qiao Yu tell her?!
Yes, the second year after their divorce, he ran into Qiao Yu in London. He was chased down a couple of streets before he finally blocked him to ask about Asteria. At that time, he told Qiao Yu Asteria was living a great life with a new boyfriend.
Asteria was a compet.i.tive person. She would never want anyone to know about her situation, and especially not Qiao Yu. Also, he did not want Qiao Yu to feel privileged because Asteria liked him. That was why he said that.
Zheng Ziming went into silence for a long time before he finally said, “Asteria, I just didn’t want you to get hurt again. Even if Qiao Yu showed up, what could it do? You and he were not going to be the same kind of people.” Zheng Ziming continued in a low voice, “It took you a lot to get out of it. I didn’t want you to go back in there again. Only away from him can you live a better life!”
“You are overthinking. I’m not blaming you,” Xia Ning leaned against the couch and said calmly. “I just didn’t want to you hide anything from me.”
“It’ll never happen again. Right, you must have heard that from Qiao Yu. Where are you? It can’t be…”
Xia Ning curled her lips. “I’m at Qiao Yu’s place.”
“Are you kidding me, Asteria? Why are you at his place? I knew he was up to no good. Wait there. I’ll pick you up at once…”
Hearing Zheng Ziming’s loud voice on the phone, Xia Ning suddenly thought she should not have told him. She sighed. “You are still injured. Don’t push your limits. Enoch is sick. I’m here to take a look.”
The man on the phone calmed down at once. After a while, he said, “If you miss him, stay with him for a few days. After all, he’s your child. You went through a lot to give birth to him.”
Xia Ning curled her lips and looked extremely peaceful. “Ziming, you are the one who really understands me.”
“We’ve been friends for so many years. You are being too courteous with me.”
“Go to bed early. Have a good night.” Xia Ning finished the call and hung up. She took a look at her phone, stood up and went back to the bedroom.
It was dark in the room. There was only Enoch in the bed. Xia Ning darted a look outside. Was Qiao Yu still not going to bed so late?
Remembering her talk with him just now, she suddenly felt that she was more comfortable without him here. She put her phone on the side table and went to bed. Seeing Enoch’s quiet look in his sleep, she smiled slightly and closed her eyes. Soon, she fell asleep.
In the study room on the third floor, Qiao Yu was sitting at his desk. He wanted to go through some files but he could not focus at all. His head was filled with her cruel words just now.
He had thought that after he confessed to her and explained what happened before, she would change her mind. But her heart was harder than he had thought. Even the kid was nothing to her.
All of a sudden, his phone rang.
Qiao Yu took a look and it was from Chen Hong. He frowned a little and wanted to decline the call. But suddenly, he thought of something so he picked up.
The other side said something and Qiao Yu’s face was cold as ice. “Don’t ask me about this kind of stuff anymore!” As he spoke, he hung up directly.
On the other side, Chen Hong looked at his phone with confusion. Didn’t Boss say everything related to Miss Xia needed to be reported to him? What was wrong with him today?
Well well well, whatever! He’s the Boss!
Just as Chen Hong was putting down his phone and getting ready to shower, his phone rang again.
Chen Hong picked it up and was shocked. It was Boss! He picked it up and did not dare to treat it lightly.
“Yes, yes. Boss, I will not let you…” Before Chen Hong could finish, the other side hung up.
Seeing the black phone screen, Chen Hong felt helpless. Were they in a fight? Anyways, someone is about to get unlucky!
