Chapter 87

What "being someone's mistress," what "rushing to curry favor"—aren't they just taking advantage of the fact that Xia Xia is kind-hearted?

These people have had their consciences eaten by dogs!

She knew better than anyone what kind of person Xia Xia was.

She picked up her phone, thinking of calling Xia Xia, but then put it back down; it was better not to let Xia Xia worry.

This phone call from Old Fu was just meant to disgust her.

Had she known earlier that Old Fu and Fu Chenyan were two-faced, she should have stopped the two children from being together in the first place.

It was Xia Xia who said that Fu Chenyan was a very good person and worthy of trust.

In the end, Xia Xia had misplaced her heart.

Zhang Dechun could not stop grinning as he looked at the painting that Shu Xia had restored for him.

It was restored so perfectly!

It was the best-restored painting he had ever seen.

Glancing at Shu Xia, who was still in the workshop continuing to restore the next painting, he felt the money was truly well spent.

"I feel like you paid Shu Xia too little." Gu Cheng had just finished his livestream, and as he was about to leave, he saw Zhang Dechun beaming while holding the painting Shu Xia had restored, so he couldn't help but feel indignant on Shu Xia's behalf.

With Shu Xia's skills, she could earn much more.

Zhang Dechun glared at Gu Cheng, "What do you know? It's already past work hours, stop being an eyesore and get lost!"

If he didn't know that it was impossible for Shu Xia to stay with him, he would have wanted to hire Shu Xia for a few more years; by then, he would bring over all sorts of difficult-to-restore antiques, and after going through the process, his grandson would be set for life.

It was a pity, though, that Shu Xia had a better career path waiting for her.

If he maintained a good relationship with Shu Xia, he might be able to benefit from it in the future.

Shu Xia was very focused and did not hear what Zhang Dechun and Gu Cheng had said.

After feeling some discomfort in her cervical spine, she put down the work in her hands, stood up, and went to wash her hands.

It was only after she came out of Zhang Dechun's shop that she realized it was raining outside.

Fortunately, her car was parked right at the entrance, so she quickly got in and headed back to Xinghai Villa.

When the car was halfway there, Jiang Nannan called, "Xia Xia, can you come keep me company? I'm at Meise Bar."

"Wait for me."

Shu Xia immediately turned the car around, navigated to the location of Meise Bar on her phone, and drove toward the bar.

Jiang Nannan had a fiery personality; if she weren't in a bad mood, she wouldn't have run to a bar alone to drown her sorrows.

She arrived at the bar very quickly.

Unlike the drizzling rain outside and the empty streets, the bar was packed with people.

She searched for quite a while before she found Jiang Nannan.

There was an empty bottle on the table in front of Jiang Nannan, who was completely tipsy, still holding a mixed cocktail and continuing to drink.

"Drinking so much?" Shu Xia frowned and asked.

Jiang Nannan giggled, "Drinking makes me happy, Xia Xia, drink with me. I have money; my husband earns so much money, I should help him spend more of it, don't you think?"
