Chapter 1030 - 940: Seeking Forgiveness
Lu Qing could sense from Qin Miaomiao’s words that she cared deeply about her friend Xu Jiaojiao, especially when she saw her drunk, and his mood also became anxious due to Qin Miaomiao’s concern.He turned around, grabbed Qin Miaomiao’s hand, and held her shoulder, saying: "Don’t worry, things will work out when the time comes, I believe everything will get better."
"Really? If that’s the case, Jiaojiao can be happy every day like before."
Qin Miaomiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking about the unhappiness surrounding her one after another, she couldn’t feel better. If it wasn’t for Lu Qing always being by her side, she wouldn’t know how to look at all this optimistically.
Besides Xu Jiaojiao, Ou Beichen has also become mysteriously elusive recently. He keeps things vague no matter what is asked and doesn’t explain why he returned to the country. Qin Miaomiao has many thoughts she’s unable to express, especially facing Ou Beichen, who appears indifferent to everything and everyone’s matters, making it hard to speak up.
"Alright, don’t let your mind wander, you’ve been so busy lately we should rest early."
"Got it."
Lying in bed, Qin Miaomiao kept thinking about Su Lan; if her initial suspicion is correct, Su Lan would soon reveal herself. She hopes her suspicion doesn’t come true but knows Su Lan isn’t simple.
In a short time, Su Lan has garnered high praises from Xu Jiaojiao and left a great impression on others in the company. This alone is enough to draw attention. Thinking of the recent events and Su Lan’s profile resembling Rong Lan, Qin Miaomiao’s heart tightened, even recalling the days before Rong Lan passed away, she closed her eyes uncomfortably.
Lu Qing did not disturb Qin Miaomiao, knowing her heart wasn’t in a good place. Since Rong Lan’s departure, her inner feelings are certainly conflicted and struggling, so he let her be while she lay on her side.
Due to her hangover, Xu Jiaojiao woke up with a headache at her temples and felt slightly dizzy. Seeing her clothes still on, she looked around without noticing anything amiss, and suddenly remembered last night’s events, realizing she was drunk.
"Every time I drink, I regret it the next day. I just..."
As Xu Jiaojiao was about to complain about her drunken misbehavior, she unexpectedly noticed someone walking in from outside. Shocked to see the man coming in, she immediately stopped talking.
"How did you get in here?"
Xu Jiaojiao never expected Jin Jing to appear in her bedroom, nor did she expect him to bring breakfast. Recalling last night when he accompanied Yue Chengjun for a maternity check-up, she felt very uneasy.
"I came last night. Lu Qing and Qin Miaomiao brought you back and opened the door for me."
Jin Jing recalled rashly returning each other’s keys before, and hadn’t had a chance to take them back yet. Now, looking at each other awkwardly, he realized the breakfast in his hand hadn’t been given to her.
"Your favorite custard buns and black rice porridge, eat them while they’re hot."
Xu Jiaojiao looked at the store name on the custard buns, remembering this place was a bit far from her apartment. Seeing Jin Jing silently placing the breakfast on the table, he must have gone out of his way to get breakfast from that store. Although he meant to mend things, her heart could no longer be moved by him.
"You eat the breakfast, I don’t have an appetite."
Xu Jiaojiao, dealing with her hangover, couldn’t eat anything, nor did she want to feel agitated seeing Jin Jing again, so she directly refused.
