Chapter 215: Afraid The Truth Would Devastate Her
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Jiang Ci ran out of the hospital. Huo Fei followed behind him. “What happened? Where are we headed to?”
“Go to Imperial University and look for Qianqian,” Jiang Ci said.
“Sister Qian!” Huo Fei thought about what Jiang Ci had just said about her crying and immediately asked, “What’s happened to Sister Qian?”
The two arrived at the parking lot. Jiang Ci didn’t say anything and quickly opened the car door.
Huo Fei immediately got into the passenger seat. The car rushed out before he could fasten his seatbelt.
Jiang Ci sped through countless traffic lights.
Shi Qian wiped her tears calmly as her emotions gradually recovered.
At this moment, she finally understood why Shang Sizhan suddenly transferred her to another school and didn’t allow her to go to C University with Jiang Ci.
He probably already knew that her mother was not dead and was the current Bai Liyue.
It wasn’t jealousy toward Jiang Ci. He was afraid she would find out about Bai Liyue. His concern was the unbearable pain she would endure if she found out that her mother was not dead but had abandoned her and forgotten about her.
He was afraid the truth would devastate her.
Indeed, this matter soulfully killed her.
Shi Qian laughed at herself.
Her father didn’t care, and her mother didn’t love her.
A moment later, Shi Qian stood up, picked up the bag of snacks, walked to Sheng Xu and Lu Sizhe, and handed it to Lu Sizhe.
“Thank you, but I don’t eat snacks.”
“I’m not eating either,” Lu Sizhe said. “Sheng Xu asked me to buy this for you.”
Shi Qian looked at Sheng Xu and placed the snacks in his arms. “Thank you. I have to go.”
Sheng Xu couldn’t help but say, “Qianqian, it’s fine if you broke up with that man. It’s not worth it to be sad for that kind of man. There are many good men in this world, just like me…”
Lu Sizhe almost burst into laughter.
Shi Qian was stunned for a moment before she realized what he meant.
Sheng Xu had amused her.
“Yes, you’re quite good.”
Sheng Xu’s character was indeed good. He had not demonstrated disgraceful character usually exhibited by other wealthy young masters. It wouldn’t be a faulty choice to be friends with him.
Shi Qian turned around and left afterward.
Sheng Xu stared at Shi Qian’s back in a daze until she disappeared.
He came back to his senses and muttered, “She said… What did she mean? Did she finally realize I was good for her?”
Lu Sizhe looked at Sheng Xu.
He really couldn’t bear to shatter his friend’s beautiful fantasy.
He couldn’t tell she didn’t mean it that way at all.
At most, she treated Sheng Xu as a friend.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Sheng Xu asked unwillingly. “Had she realized I’m good?”
In the end, Lu Sizhe said mercilessly, “1 can’t tell. It couldn’t be that way.”
Sheng Xu rolled his eyes at him.
Lu Sizhe snatched the snacks from his arms and turned to leave.
Sheng Xu was bereft of speech.
Shi Qian had just walked to the roadside and was about to take a taxi back.
Jiang Ci’s car suddenly stopped before her, and he got out.
“Qianqian, what happened?” Jiang Ci walked up to Shi Qian and asked as he looked at her slightly red eyes.
Huo Fei also immediately got out of the car. Shock filled his face when he saw that Shi Qian had indeed cried.
“Sister Qian, what’s wrong?”
Shi Qian looked at the two and asked curiously, “1 don’t understand. What are you talking about?”
She didn’t notice Sheng Xu had called Jiang Ci.
“Why were you crying? Is it because of Shang Sizhan?” Jiang Ci asked.
Surprise flashed across Shi Qian’s eyes, but she immediately realized that Sheng Xu must have told Jiang Ci.
She could not tell when they had become so close.
“It’s not because of Master Zhan,” Shi Qian said calmly.
“Then why?” Jiang Ci asked again.
Shi Qian took a deep breath.
She couldn’t tell about her mother. She no longer wanted to discuss it with anyone.
Jiang Ci realized she didn’t look good, so he stopped asking. “It’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it for now. I’ll send you home first..”
