Chapter 779: Rejected!
After leaving the Shen family, Xia Ning went straight back to her car. She turned her head to look at the gate of the Shen family outside the car window. It was still the European style of the last century and looked sacred and solemn.
It was probably because the Shen family was not around. The manor was too quiet. After looking at it for a long time, there was a sense of desolation.
No matter how prosperous a family was in the past, they would never be able to escape the shadow of the changing times. The brilliance and glory within them gradually faded away under the corrosion of time. In the end, all that could be left was just a superficial image of the future. Maybe soon, even the image would no longer exist.
Xia Ning looked away and looked to the front. She, her mother, and her grandmother will have nothing to do with the Shen family from today onwards.
After checking the time, Xia Ning drove straight back to the Qiao family’s house.
Halfway through, Jin Yan called and Xia Ning picked up.
“Xiao Ke, I saw the news.”
Xia Ning put on her Bluetooth earpiece and made a sound of acknowledgment.
“Are you sad?”
Xia Ning smiled. “I’m not sad. I just feel carefree. The anger in my heart has finally been let out. The Shen family thought we were trying to suck up to them. That was funny. But from today onwards, they have to suck up to me. Do you think this is karma?!”
“I can hear that you’re really in a good mood from your voice. That’s good. Don’t make yourself unhappy because of those unrelated people.”
“Yup, I know.” Xia Ning frowned. “Tell me, if Mom didn’t come to S City back then, would the tragedy not have happened?”
“Xiao Ke, let bygones be bygones.”
“Sure,” Xia Ning answered. She looked at the red light in front of her and stepped on the brakes. She leaned against the back of the chair and heaved a sigh of relief. She curled her lips subconsciously. “Actually, I was the one who couldn’t let it go. The Shen family caused me to lose my mother and I was all alone. That’s why I wanted them to cry and let them have a taste of despair. In fact, it’s not good for my parents or even my grandmother to find out about the past. The dead need peace. But Jin Yan, I’m so upset. If I don’t vent, I don’t know what I will do.”
“Xiao Ke, you did the right thing. Uncle and Auntie will be proud of you. Don’t let your imagination run wild.” Jin Yan’s voice was very soft, like a spring hitting cotton.
Xia Ning chuckled. “Only you would support me like this.”
“Didn’t you support me as well?”
“Yeah, you are the best singer I know. Your voice can reach the depths of a person’s spirit. That’s the sound of nature.” Xia Ning’s eyes fell to the front and something flashed across her eyes. Just then, the green light turned on. She came back to herself and started the car.
“Let’s have dinner together tonight. Just treat it as a celebration and a celebration of your release from hatred.”
Xia Ning remembered her promise to Qiao Yu and said after a moment of silence, “No, I have something on tonight. You can eat with Li Man.”
“Li Man went to film. I’m alone, so I want to ask you out. Forget it, you have a date. I’ll eat by myself.”
“Sure, let’s meet another day.” Xia Ning finished and hung up. She stepped on the accelerator and sped up.
In the living room in the villa, Jin Yan was sitting on the couch and looking at his phone screen. His handsome face was unreadable.
“Why, is Music King Jin rejected just like that?” The woman sitting next to him suddenly spoke with a teasing tone.
