Chapter 2301: How Small and Insignificant
As Ning Shu got up from the couch, she felt much better as the energy of the Unsurpassable Martial Arts could slowly repair the body.
Recently, Xue Jing had been under a lot of psychological pressure, and this caused her body to be under a lot of pressure as well.
Many things weighed heavily on her heart, and her mind was in a mess. Not knowing what to do, she had lived each day like a dead man walking.
When Ning Shu drew the curtains, she covered her eyes with her hand as the sunlight shone upon her face.
Instantaneously, her heart brightened up.
As she thought of the universe and the thousands of astral planes that existed, she was reminded of how small and insignificant she was. Nothing mattered as much as it seemed.
At the same time, there was nothing that couldn’t be solved.
She took a deep breath and inhaled a huge amount of air deep into her lungs.
While she prepared breakfast, she hummed a simple tune and ate leisurely after that.
She had to work hard to pay the housing loan and strive to reach the pinnacle of life.
After having a few more portions of breakfast, she started to practice again. Until now, An Xuchen and Yan Suni still had not called to give her an explanation.
Maybe they were having a good time together now.
Ning Shu couldn’t wrap her head around why Yan Suni would let her best friend marry her boyfriend.
In the end, she was nothing but selfish. She said that she did not want to get married, yet she wouldn’t give up on An Xuchen.
On top of that, she felt as though she was being generous towards Xue Jing. Was Xue Jing that worthless in her heart?
In spite of everything, Xue Jing was still a graduate of a prestigious university and was also a capable employee in her company.
The only thing was, she was not as pretty as Yan Suni.
In fact, Yan Suni looked down on a little Xue Jing for being a spinster that no one wanted to marry. Although Yan Suni herself had no intention of getting married, she had many suitors.
Her boyfriend’s family were pressing for them to get married, and Xue Jing was also rather old and wanted to get married. So, Yan Suni came up with this plan to take advantage of the situation.
To her, even if her boyfriend was married, he was still her boyfriend.
This was the first time that Ning Shu had seen something so absurd.
Sure enough, the longer you lived, the more you would realize how ridiculous things could turn out. Who knew what she would encounter in the future?
As Ning Shu practiced, she was suddenly interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing.
She stopped and picked up the phone. At once, a voice roared through the phone. “Xue Jing, I’ve been waiting for you and it’s almost two hours past our agreed time! What the hell are you doing?”
“Are you going back on your words?” Wang Ke’s voice sounded furious. “I’m giving you another half an hour. If you’re not here by then, I’m going to send an email about us to everyone in our company tomorrow!”
“You’d better come here quickly if you don’t want me to tell your husband. Don’t make me mad! I’m really upset right now.”
Ning Shu put her phone on the table and listened to him fuming on the other end of the call, before pulling her hair up while tying it unhurriedly.
Right after, she put on a layer of heavy makeup which made her look different from usual.
She put on a pair of pants and a shirt because wearing a skirt would only make it easy for that *sshole.
When she was done, he was still giving her an earful on the other end of the phone.
Putting her phone into her bag, Ning Shu glanced at the bottle of medicine that she had prepared yesterday and then headed to the hallway to change into a pair of shoes before leaving the house in high spirits.
Even if this world was not meant for a good break, she was determined to take a good break.
Soon after, she called a cab and headed to the address that Wang Ke gave her.
The place that he had asked to meet at was a hotel. As soon as she arrived, she saw him pacing back and forth in front of the hotel.
Wang Ke was a thin man who was still single and had never had a girlfriend before.
That was why he hung on to Xue Jing.
When the cab stopped in front of the hotel, she paid the driver.
As soon as Wang Ke saw her, he marched right towards her and complained unhappily, “What were you doing? Do you know how long I’ve waited for you?”
