After the breakup, Mr. Shang thought that the father was more valuable than the son.

Because of the previous conflict in the bathroom, the moment Song Xier saw Shang Ji, she instinctively did not want to bump into him again, so she did not pay attention to the person sitting opposite him.

I thought she was mistaken.

But when she looked over again and found that the person sitting opposite Shang Ji was really Qi Xiaorui, Song Xier was stunned on the spot.

Qi Xiaorui actually knows Shang Ji?

Although Song Xier and Qi Xiaorui had met before, their real acquaintance was after Su Mei moved there, and they were not very familiar with them yet.

However, in the few times we met Qi Xiaorui, Song Xier felt that she was a very good girl, enthusiastic, generous, helpful, and had a good personality.

The last time she went out, Song Xi'er made an appointment with her to go to the library to review together at some time, but the appointment didn't happen because she had to take care of Yang Ming in the hospital.

Song Xier looked at the two people not far away blankly, forgetting her movements for a moment.

Somehow, she suddenly thought of the ring she saw in Shang Ji's pocket before.

And the necklace in her hand now...

Could it be that Shang Ji's new target is Qi Xiaorui?

But although she was not very familiar with Qi Xiaorui, Qi Xiaorui had mentioned her family situation to her. According to Zheng Rou's criteria for choosing a daughter-in-law, Qi Xiaorui was definitely not a satisfactory candidate for her.

But if Zheng Rou is not a satisfactory candidate, then there is only one possibility left - Shang Ji is satisfied.

Just like he fell in love with her at that time, this person became Qi Xiaorui this time?

But although Shang Ji liked her, what he liked was not her as a person, but her...

But what about Qi Xiaorui?

She had been with Shang Ji for so many years, and Shang Ji had given her many things, but not a ring.

Because the meaning of a gift like a ring is too special, it cannot be given lightly or casually.

Even though they had been together for so many years, the reason why Song Xier misunderstood that she and Shang Ji were in love was because Shang Ji was really good to her.

So good that she really felt that they were in love and very affectionate.

Now she knows that it was her own fault, and that Shang Ji's love for her for so many years was only due to physical desire.

And although he didn't want to admit it, Shang Ji's various reactions and attitudes towards her in the past did show that he really liked her body.

Song Xi'er remembers that one year in her junior year, it rained heavily after class. She didn't bring an umbrella, and she was soaked when she came home.

She was returning to rent a house, but she forgot to bring her keys. Chen Hui didn't answer her call at that time.

It was late spring and her lips were purple from the cold. She didn't want to go back to the store and worry Su Mei, so she called Shang Ji.

Shang Ji personally drove to pick her up and then took her to Jingwan.

But she was so cold that her body had no warmth after taking a bath, and her feet were so stiff that she could no longer feel anything.

She remembered that Shang Ji looked at her and said, "You are so pitiful."

Then he lifted up the hem of his clothes and covered her cold feet inside.

His body temperature was so hot that Song Xier instinctively shrank when her feet touched his lower abdomen, and then she wanted to pull them out in embarrassment, but he held on and refused to let go.

Song Xier still remembers her feelings at that time.

It was as if all the light in the world was shining on her body. In addition to warmth, there was also an uncontrollable grievance.

At that time, she really felt that she was the happiest person in the world, and she wanted to cry pretentiously in his arms. Later, Shang Ji carried her back to her room, causing her to be late for morning class the next day.

Just because of the need of desire, a person who is so aloof outside can be so good to her in private, so good that she even gives her the illusion that he likes her too.

But even so, he never gave her a ring.

But Qi Xiaorui...

How long have they known each other?

Or, has it been a long time?

Song Xi'er suddenly thought of a saying that was very popular on the Internet before. Love never distinguishes first come first served. Sooner or later, if you don't have time, you just like it.

So Shang Ji likes Qi Xiaorui?

But what about Zhuang Lin’s sister?

Hasn't he been waiting for Zhuang Lin's sister?

He even did not hesitate to marry the other person's sister in order to let the other person return to the country.

By the way, I don’t know if Zhuang Lin’s sister came back from the last engagement.

Song Xier couldn't control her chaotic mind, and she couldn't control herself from thinking about things that had nothing to do with her.

She clearly knew that no matter who Shang Ji liked or married, it had nothing to do with her, but the moment she saw Qi Xiaorui, she still couldn't control the wound in her heart that she thought had begun to heal.

She thought she had begun to let go slowly and could no longer care.

But the reality is that people are different.

Shang Ji doesn't like Zhuang Lin.

But Shang Ji may like Qi Xiaorui...

Song Xi'er forced herself to look away and saw the bathroom at the end of the corridor. She walked quickly there, even a little panicked from behind.

When Yang Ming's message came over, Song Xi'er was holding the sink with both hands. Her freshly washed face was covered with wet drops. The hair on her forehead was wet, and the drops of water were falling down drop by drop along her chin.

The phone rang several times in a row, and Song Xier finally seemed to hear it.

Yang Ming asked her if she had arrived, where she was, and if she wanted him to pick her up.

[No, just wait for me outside the restaurant. 】

Song Xier put away her phone and took several deep breaths in front of the mirror.

By the time she came out of the bathroom, she had calmed down.

Song Xier took out the necklace box from her bag and planned to hand it to Yang Ming and leave.

As for the relationship between Qi Xiaorui and Shang Ji...

She doesn't have to care.

"Professor Hong."

The familiar name made Song Xi'er look up and saw Yang Ming and Professor Hong walking inside the restaurant's entrance not far away while talking.

Professor Hong?

Song Xier followed subconsciously, but she didn't go in.

There is a green plant as tall as one person planted outside the restaurant. Standing outside, you can see the people sitting inside through the gaps in the green plants.

Yang Ming led Professor Hong directly to the table where Shang Ji and Qi Xiaorui were sitting. Qi Xiaorui stood up immediately when she saw Professor Hong, looking obviously excited and happy, but also a little reserved.

Shang Ji stood up and shook hands with Professor Hong. After saying something, they sat down together. Song Xier could only see people but could not hear sounds.

It’s not surprising that Shang Ji knew Professor Hong, but looking at the situation in front of him, it was probably Shang Ji who introduced Professor Hong and Qi Xiaorui to each other.

Qi Xiaorui is also from the Department of Architecture, and every student in the Department of Architecture admires Professor Hong.

"Miss Xi'er." Yang Ming's voice suddenly sounded.

Song Xier looked up and saw Yang Ming coming out at some point.

Song Xi'er quickly put the expression on her face away and walked over: "I saw the nurse cleaning up the ward. I'd better put away such valuable things better next time. I'll leave first."

Yang Ming took the box handed over by Song Xi'er and when he raised his head and was about to say something, he saw Song Xi'er walking into the elevator nearby without looking back.

……

After Shang Ji came out of the hotel and got into the car, Yang Ming handed the necklace to him: "I left it in the hospital before. Miss Xi'er just sent it over."
