Chapter 662

The sound of Jiang Nannan crying came intermittently from the phone.

It was very restrained.

Her crying made one's heart ache.

"Nannan?"

Shu Xia waited patiently, waiting for Jiang Nannan's emotions to calm down.

After crying for a while, Jiang Nannan finally calmed down.

"Xia Xia, I'm going to resign."

Shu Xia knew how much Jiang Nannan liked this job, "Why are you suddenly resigning?"

"Huo Jingyan is a bastard! He made a move against Sheng An."

"Have you talked to Huo Jingyan?" Shu Xia asked with a frown.

Jiang Nannan's tone was relatively calm, "I just walked out of his company. I said so much to him, but it seems like he didn't take a single word in. Alright, don't worry about me, I'm going back to find Sheng Laoshi first."

"Take care of yourself."

"Mm."

Jiang Nannan was squatting by the side of the road, and when she stood up, she felt a bit dizzy.

Perhaps it was because she had cried for too long, leaving her somewhat drained.

She hailed a taxi.

On the way, her mother suddenly called.

"Mom?"

Since finding out about Huo Jingyan's infidelity, she didn't seem to have called home.

Perhaps it was a subconscious cowardice, a desire to escape.

She didn't know how to tell them.

"I had a fight with your dad today, so I took the opportunity to come stay at your place for two days and take care of you while I'm at it. What's been going on with you lately? Why haven't you come back to see us?" Jiang's mother rattled off a series of sentences.

Jiang Nannan bit her lip, "Mom, it's not very convenient recently. Dad will go to coax you in a little while, and I can take care of myself. I've been too busy lately and have been traveling for work often. I'll come back to see you and Dad in a while."

"I'm already almost at your place. No matter how busy you are, you still have to come home to rest at night in Jing City, right? I'll cook and wait for you. I just called your husband, and he agreed to let me come over." Jiang's mother didn't give Jiang Nannan a chance to refuse further and hung up the phone directly.

Jiang Nannan was burning with anxiety. She called Jiang's mother back, but Jiang's mother didn't answer.

Looking at the familiar street view outside the window, Jiang Nannan had never felt as lost as she did now.

——

During the lunch break.

Shu Xia received a message from Zhang Tezhu.

【Mrs. Qiao, Qiao instructed me to book a restaurant while he was busy with work today. I am sending you the address.】

Immediately following was a location pin for a restaurant.

It was the hot pot restaurant they had been to before.

Looking at the location of the hot pot restaurant, Shu Xia was dazed for a moment, feeling that when Qiao Muting was with her, he would accommodate her dietary habits.

There were some details she hadn't paid attention to before.

Thinking about it now, she felt he wasn't as cold and heartless as he appeared on the surface.

These past two days, they had been getting along harmoniously at home, and there were some things they both deliberately avoided and did not touch upon.

Just as she was feeling a bit distracted, Butler Qin suddenly called, "Young Mistress, the Old Madam asked me to tell you not to come to the Laozhai today. You two young people should spend the birthday outside."

In previous years, when the Young Master had a birthday, he would always come to the Laozhai to spend it with the Old Madam.

This year, the Old Madam had the intention of letting the Young Master and the Young Mistress have some time to themselves.

"Birthday?" Shu Xia asked back instinctively, and then suddenly thought of something.

She remembered, today seemed to be Qiao Muting's birthday?

When they were getting their marriage certificate, she had seen Qiao Muting's ID number.

"That's right, today is the Young Master's birthday." Upon hearing this, Butler Qin's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that the two young people hadn't made any progress in their relationship yet?
