Hello, lovely readers! ^^
Sorry for the interruption, but we'd like you to help with a tiny request. It'd mean a lot to us if you're willing to spare 3 minutes to help with this poll on Ko-fi telling us what series brings you/which you read mostly on this site. Here's the link - https://ko-fi.com/polls/What-series-do-you-enjoy-the-most-on-our-site-Or-A0A71UA533 Thanks in advance! Bless you all. 💗
As we enter this Lenten season, may this be a time of reflection, renewal, and quiet strength. May our hearts grow softer, our faith deeper, and our hope stronger as we journey toward Easter.
Chapter 119: Buying Black Material from You
Shen Jingxiu's gaze remained fixed on Wen Yan's face.
Seeing no hint of surprise in Wen Yan's expression, he asked, "The banquet here is almost over. I plan to go back. Do you want to come with me?"
Wen Yan was a little surprised by his words. She subconsciously glanced at Su Yang before redirecting her gaze back to Shen Jingxiu.
"Can we go now? Is it appropriate for us to leave?"
Although she asked carefully, Wen Yan's heart was already filled with joy.
‘Yes! Who is this amazing guy? I'm so bored and have been wanting to go home. I shouldn't have worn these high heels today. My feet are killing me!’
Hearing Wen Yan's thoughts, Shen Jingxiu discreetly glanced at her shoes.
They were small and pretty, but it was clear that they wouldn't be comfortable to wear.
He turned to Su Yang and said, "Mom, I already greeted Uncle Biao just now."
Su Yang nodded. "Then you can take Yan Yan home first. It's getting dark, so drive slowly."
"Okay, let's go then."
After saying that, Shen Jingxiu looked at Wen Yan again. "Let's go and get your coat first."
After getting their coats, the two of them left the banquet hall side by side.
At this time, Min Xiaxia was still searching in the banquet hall.
However, she couldn't find the person she was looking for, but she saw Wen Yan leaving with a tall figure.
Just seeing Shen Jingxiu's figure alone made Min Xiaxia envious and jealous.
Why did Wen Yan have such good luck? The man she was with just based on his back couldn't be ugly like the one she attached herself to.
Thinking of this, Min Xiaxia searched even harder.
Finally, she found Qiao Kexin in the restroom.
At the moment, Qiao Kexin looked lost and her eyes were swollen, as if she had been crying.
When she saw Min Xiaxia staring at her through the mirror, she immediately hurriedly packed up her makeup.
Just as she was about to leave, Min Xiaxia suddenly called out to her.
"Hello, can I talk to you for a moment?"
Qiao Kexin didn't have any mood to spare at the moment.
She gave Min Xiaxia a glance and said expressionlessly, "We seem to not know each other."
Min Xiaxia smiled. "We will know each other if we talk, right?"
But Min Xiaxia couldn't be sure if there was anyone else in the restroom, so she lowered her voice and leaned closer to Qiao Kexin's ear.
"Do you know Wen Yan? I want to ask you something about her. This isn't the place to talk. How about we go somewhere else?"
Hearing Wen Yan's name, Qiao Kexin instinctively cringed.
But seeing the obvious malicious glint in Min Xiaxia's eyes, she hesitated.
A few minutes later.
The two of them arrived at a secluded place.
After finding a place to sit, Qiao Kexin spoke first, "Your name is Min Xiaxia, right?"
Min Xiaxia chuckled lightly. "So you already know me."
Actually, Qiao Kexin didn't know her before. But ever since she watched that variety show of Wen Yan's, she knew about Min Xiaxia.
A woman who is annoying and unpleasant.
"Just say it directly, what do you want from me?"
"It's not a big deal, I'm just curious about Wen Yan. But there is very little information about her online, so I wanted to ask you."
"Oh?" Qiao Kexin looked at Min Xiaxia warily. "You already know that we are acquainted. Don't you think I know less about her? Do you really have to inquire about her from me?"
Min Xiaxia raised an eyebrow. "To be honest, I just found out recently that you might know each other. I don't even know your name yet. But I saw you going to the terrace with her just now, and it seemed like you stayed there for a while before parting unhappily. It looks like you two don't have a good relationship."
After hearing this, Qiao Kexin frowned. "I think you shouldn't beat around the bush to inquire about my personal matters. Can you just be straight with me? I've seen your show, and it seems like you don't really like her, is that true?"
Min Xiaxia's smile froze on her face, and after two seconds of silence, she spoke.
"Since you've figured it out, I'll be upfront. I don't really like her, and she's blocking my way. So if you have any black material on her, you can consider selling it to me. We can discuss the price."
"How much can you offer?"
Hearing Qiao Kexin's question, Min Xiaxia's lips immediately curled into a smile.
"It seems like my guess was right. You can't stand her either. Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly. But it depends on the value of the information you provide. If it's explosive enough, several million won't be a problem."
"Several million?" Qiao Kexin chuckled. "Are you kidding?"
Min Xiaxia's expression changed slightly. "You still have quite an attitude. But with just a bit of information, you can earn several million, and you still look down on it?"
Qiao Kexin certainly looked down on it.
A one-time deal, what can several million do?
Furthermore! She couldn't even come up with any black material on Wen Yan! And she didn't dare to expose any black material on Wen Yan!
The biggest material on Wen Yan right now was her identity as the adopted daughter of the Shen family.
But Qiao Kexin absolutely did not dare to offend the Shen family!
Because just a few minutes ago, Shen Jingxiu from the Shen family found her.
He wasn't someone she could provoke on her own!
A few minutes ago...
After being fiercely threatened by Wen Yan, Qiao Kexin left the terrace with a sense of dissatisfaction.
She had intended to find her stepfather and tell him that she wasn't feeling well and wanted to go home first.
However, she had only walked a few steps away from the terrace when a stranger in server attire called her.
"Hello, are you Miss Qiao Kexin? Mr. Shen would like to see you. Please follow me."
When Qiao Kexin heard the words 'Mr. Shen,' she couldn't help but feel a shock.
"Which Mr. Shen?"
However, the strange server did not give a direct answer and simply smiled politely, "You will know when you arrive."
The more the server avoided saying anything, the more uneasy Qiao Kexin felt.
She had just been defeated by Wen Yan, and she hadn't expected someone from the Shen family to send someone to look for her.
"Can I choose not to go?"
The server continued to wear a faint smile, "Mr. Shen said that if you choose not to go, you will regret it."
If someone else had said this to her, it might have been a joke or boasting. But the Shen family had the power to make this statement a reality.
Therefore, even though Qiao Kexin was unwilling, she obediently followed the server upstairs.
Soon, she was led into a room, and as soon as she entered, the door was closed by the server from the outside.
