752 As Long As You Like It
Ji Ning’s eyes were brimming with tears, and she had secretly wiped them away several times. Qiao Xi forced out a smile. She knew that she wouldn’t be back any time soon. At the very least, she wouldn’t show up at the Ji family’s house before she could sort out her emotions and face Shen Hanxing without shame. She hid the embarrassment and tried to smile. “Anyway, I wanted to thank everyone for taking care of me during this period of time. I’m really grateful to all of you.” They had given her the strength to start a new life.
“Qiao Xi, please have a meal with us before you leave.” Ji Ning was a little reluctant, and in a soft voice, she urged, “You haven’t had breakfast yet.” Ji Ning was always sensitive and vulnerable. Before Shen Hanxing married Ji Yan, she had kept herself in a state of self-denial for a long time. Because of that experience, it was easy for her to empathize with Qiao Xi. She liked the gentle, humble, and easy-going Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi was indeed a very likable girl. She was diligent and had a sense of propriety, even though in many cases, her sense of propriety resulted from her habit of trying to please them.
“No need,” Qiao Xi tried to decline.!!
“There’s no rush. Let’s have breakfast before you go.” Ji Qian immediately went up to Qiao Xi and held her arm, leading her to the dining table. Qiao Xi’s dress had been washed many times and felt like it would tear at the slightest touch. Ji Qian frowned and said without thinking, “Qiao Xi, why don’t you wear the dress you bought some time ago? This one looks very old.” It was also very ugly, with plain colors and no shape, giving off a cheap feeling. Ji Qian considerately swallowed the remaining words.
Qiao Xi lowered her head and looked at it, feeling uneasy. She pinched the edge of her dress and said softly, “It is old, but it’s very comfortable.” Wearing it, she felt much more at ease. She wouldn’t have to worry about other people sizing her up, and she wouldn’t have to worry about other people seeing through her dirty thoughts from her dressing.
“And this is what I should be wearing.” She smiled in relief. An ugly duckling was an ugly duckling, and not every ugly duckling could become a white swan.
“Clothes are just clothes. There are no clothes that one should not wear.” Shen Hanxing had already taken her seat. She looked up at Qiao Xi and said calmly, “As long as you want, you can wear any kind of clothes.”
Qiao Xi was stunned as she looked at Shen Hanxing. She couldn’t help but feel envious. How could Mrs. Ji say such things with such confidence? it was as if she had never doubted herself. She was always so beautiful, so elegant, making others feel inferior. Qiao Xi wondered if she really had the right to like those things that were beyond her reach.
At that moment, steady footsteps came from upstairs. Ji Yan had just finished his morning run and returned to his room to take a shower. He strode down the stairs with his hair still slightly damp. Qiao Xi was visibly nervous. Did he remember what had happened last night? She clenched her fists subconsciously as she felt a burning pain in her fingertips that had touched Ji Yan’s arm.
“Grandma, Madam. Good morning.” Ji Yan’s calm black eyes glanced at the them and greeted calmly.
“Good Morning, Mr. Ji.” Shen Hanxing could not help but smile when she saw the bite mark on Ji Yan’s throat.
“Big brother, what happened to your neck?” When Ji Qian looked up, she saw the red mark on Ji Yan’s neck and shouted in shock, “Did you get into a fight with someone at the social gathering yesterday? Who had the guts to attack you, big brother?”
Ji Ning also looked at Ji Yan in concern, and Ji Yan instantly fell silent. Shen Hanxing wanted to laugh, and she felt her face heat up, and even her neck turned pink. Ji Qian and Ji Ning were both innocent girls who had never been intimate with men, so it was understandable that they couldn’t figure out what the red mark was. However, Grandma wasn’t. She looked at Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing, who looked a little embarrassed, and smiled meaningfully. It seemed that the couple were very intimate.
“Big brother, who did this?” Ji Qian was still prattling on, her face filled with righteous indignation. “How dared they do this? And one’s neck is vulnerable. It might be injured seriously if you’re not careful. Eh? Big brother, your mouth is also injured…” Ji Qian stopped suddenly. She was innocent but not stupid. Looking at Ji Yan’s slightly red and swollen lips, she suddenly understood! She covered her mouth in embarrassment and widened her eyes in horror. What did she just say?! Her brother wouldn’t kill her to silence her, right?
