He slowly turned around, his dark eyes flashing with a cold light as he stared at Xia Zhitong's unyielding tearful eyes.
Huo Chengxi's lips curved into a lukewarm smile. He stopped in his tracks and stared at her disheveled appearance.
"Huo Chengxi, don't tell me you don't know the story behind that earring of yours.”Xia Zhitong took a deep breath, and her cold fingertips touched the other earring that was hanging on a chain in front of her chest.
Ever since the last time she saw him, Xia Zhitong had noticed that the earring on the man's right ear was of the same design as the earring on her chest.
There was no expression on the man's cold face. On the contrary, Ji Yaqin, who was at the side, looked back and forth in surprise at the ear and neck earmuffs of the same design.
Xia Zhitong continued," This pair of ear diamonds was specially designed by a famous designer when my father and the Huo Family were engaged. It has a unique cutting technique and contains a blue diamond. It's unique in the world.”
Ji Yaqin's eyes widened in disbelief. She pointed at Xia Zhitong's head and jabbed it fiercely." Hey, don't think that you can get close to our Chengxi just because you went out to make a fake earring. Chengxi and I have lived together in America for many years, and I have never heard of a fake fiancée like you!”
Xia Zhitong used the last of her strength to push Ji Yaqin away." I'm not lying! If you don't believe me, you can ask your fiancé. He cherishes this earring so much. How could he not know that this earring is actually from the Xia family and Huo Mian? He looked at her, his handsome face revealing incomparable evil and darkness. His thin lips coldly spilled out a sentence," Fiancée? A bankrupt orphan of the Xia family? A woman who doesn't even know how to serve a man, a woman who has no value and no beauty, what right does she have to be my fiancée! Wake up!"
He walked towards her and looked at her lying on the ground arrogantly. His hand slowly reached out…
Ji Yaqin, who was beside her, wrapped her arms around her waist. Ji Yaqin smiled charmingly and coiled around Huo Chengxi like a snake.
Ji Yaqin smiled seductively and said sarcastically to Xia Zhitong," I almost forgot to tell you that Chengxi proposed to me tonight. I'll be her bride soon. Will you give me your blessings?”
Xia Zhitong's current state was like a joke in their eyes.
Her tears were hot and stinging, cutting her porcelain-like face, wetting her hair and the soft carpet.
He watched as the golden boy and jade girl left.
Xia Zhitong's heart felt like it was being strangled by someone, so tight that she couldn't breathe…
It turned out that her mother's relic did not bring her happiness, but humiliation. The person she had been looking for for so long was actually so heartless.
She moved her trembling hand to her bag, took out her phone, and dialed a number. She sobbed as she said," Amy, come and pick me up. I failed…"
Xia Zhitong was curled up on the sofa with a glass of hot milk in her hand. The steam from the milk filled her eyes, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying. They were dry and uncomfortable now, and the heat hurt her eyes. She put down the glass of milk and looked at Amy in a daze." Amy, can you help me back to my room?" I feel much calmer now."
Amy sat cross-legged next to Xia Zhitong. She was watching a TV series, and she angrily turned off the TV. Then, she picked up a newspaper from the table and pointed at a baby photo on the newspaper." Are you in a good mood?" Hmph, if I were you, I'd beat this ungrateful man to death. You've been guarding this broken necklace all this time, hoping for such a heartless fiancé.”
Amy narrowed her eyes and read the title of the newspaper from 20 years ago." Huo Tianao, the president of the Huo Corporation, has a son named Chengxi…Damn it! It was simply infuriating. Did he think that he was so great just because he was the heir of a large corporation? How can you bully our Little Tong like this?”
Seeing that Amy was even angrier than she was, Xia Zhitong threw the newspaper on the ground and kicked it around." Forget it, Amy," she said." You don't need a fiancé like him." I thought he would help me. I think…forget it.”
Xia Zhitong had fantasized about her fiancé, whom she had never met for the past twenty years. However, reality was too cruel. Not only was he a flirt, but he had also humiliated her several times. Since she was not fated to be with him, she should not think about it. She did not want to be with a rich young master.
Life continued.
Xia Zhitong usually stayed in the dormitory, but she stayed at Amy's house during the weekends.
Whenever she was free, she would participate in the reconstruction. Then, with Amy's company, she would visit every special school in S City.
Occasionally, she would " pass " by the Xia residence and look at the seal on the dusty door.
Her tears would flow uncontrollably. Although she rarely lived in this house, this was everything that her father had built with his own hands. Now, there was nothing left.
Xia Zhitong stood alone with her walking stick and placed the small white flower in front of the door. The wind blew past the flower bud and a few petals fell, looking desolate and beautiful.
She wiped away her tears sadly and turned around to see a familiar and kind face.
She recognized this old face. It was the butler of the Xia family, Uncle Yan.
"Young miss, you…"
Xia Zhitong smiled at Uncle Yan." Long time no see, Uncle Yan. How have you been?”
Uncle Yan could not help but tear up. He walked towards Xia Zhitong and blamed himself," Eldest Miss, it wasn't that Uncle Yan didn't let you pay your respects to Old Master that day. It was this vicious mother and daughter who didn't let Uncle Yan open the door. I was really stupid at that time. Why did I listen to that woman's words and believe that you were the jinx that jinxed Old Master? It was only until…until that day when I was packing Old Master's belongings that I realized that Uncle Yan had trusted the wrong person…"
Uncle Yan pounded his chest in grief. Xia Zhitong didn't know how to comfort him. She held onto Uncle Yan and said," Uncle Yan, don't be like this…It's all in the past…"
"No, I can't! We can't just let it go like this!" Uncle Yan grabbed Xia Zhitong's hand and said angrily," Young Miss, do you know what I found in Old Master's belongings? A will! It turns out that Old Master left all of the Xia Corporation's assets to you, but once Old Master died, in the blink of an eye, you had nothing! Old Master was such a cautious person in business. How could he owe so much debt? It must be that vicious woman's scheme!”
Xia Zhitong held her breath, and her body started to lose its balance.
She pressed her temples tightly, her lips trembling, but she couldn't speak…
"Eldest Miss, you must take back everything for our Xia family and find Little Miss Jing. Uncle Yan knew which special school Little Miss was in.”
Uncle Yan gave Xia Zhitong a piece of paper. Xia Zhitong held it tightly in her hands. Her cold sweat had blurred the handwriting, but she remembered it firmly, as if it was deeply imprinted in her heart.
After calling a taxi to send Uncle Yan off, Xia Zhitong leaned on her walking stick and prepared to hail a taxi as well. However, it was difficult to hail a taxi at this time.
Just as her injured legs were about to collapse, a luxurious car suddenly stopped in front of her.
The car window rolled down, revealing a handsome smiling face.
"It's you? Si…Brother Driver?" Xia Zhitong did not expect to meet him here.
"Aren't you the…the…driver from last time? What are you doing here?" Xia Zhitong blinked her watery eyes in confusion. Her eyes were still red and swollen from crying. She was wearing a bright yellow dress, making her look delicate and thin.
