Chapter 1063: Was it Worth It?
Did you need something? asked Ning Shu. It had been a long time since they had seen each other. For Xia Xiaoman to come here so abruptly, it was definitely because she needed something.
Xia Xiaomans face was a little red, causing her entire face to flush a strange dark red and making her sunburn spots more conspicuous.
I... Xia Xiaoman squeezed her s.h.i.+rt like she was finding it hard to speak.
Ning Shu didnt rush her and had the secretary bring two cups of water. Xia Xiaoman wiped her hands on her s.h.i.+rt, then picked up the cup and drank all of the water.
Ning Shu had the secretary pour more water, but Xia Xiaoman hastily waved her hands to stop her. Thanks, Big Brother Wenlang. Im not thirsty anymore.
Big Brother Wenlang, I... Xia Xiaoman opened her mouth, but in the end, still didnt say anything.
Xia Xiaoman really couldnt bring herself to say it. In reality, Chu Xiaoran was the one that had forced her to come here.
It was hard to imagine that it was actually Chu Xiaoran that made her to come here. In the past, Chu Xiaoran would be infuriated whenever she mentioned Xu Wenlangs name, but now he was having her go look for Xu Wenlang because Xu Wenlang had money.
Chu Xiaoran often saw Ning Shu on TV. Ning Shu was already T Citys amba.s.sador, and a public welfare advertis.e.m.e.nt about her was often broadcasted on TV.
Chu Xiaoran loathed Ning Shu. His eyes became bloodshot when he saw how well-off his enemy was doing, so he came up with an idea, which was to have Xia Xiaoman go ask Ning Shu for money.
As of now, Chu Xiaoran didnt mind his woman going to find Xu Wenlang at all since he didnt have any money to gamble with anymore. The fact that he had been able to tell Xia Xiaoman to sell herself showed that he only thought of Xia Xiaoman as a money-making tool now.
Even if Xia Xiaoman really slept with Xu Wenlang and got money from Xu Wenlang, that just meant that he had information on Xu Wenlang and would be able to get more money from Xu Wenlang in the future.
Due to Chu Xiaorans physical threats, Xia Xiaoman had no choice but to come look for Ning Shu.
However, as she faced the person who had almost become her lifelong partner, all she felt was embarra.s.sment. She hadnt wanted to appear in front of Big Brother Wenlang in such a wretched manner.
Big Brother Wenlang, Ill leave first... Xia Xiaoman abruptly got up, then hastily left.
Ning Shu lifted her brows. Xia Xiaoman had clearly come here for something, but she left before even saying what it was.
The person that had been keeping an eye on Chu Xiaoran said that Chu Xiaoran had sent Xia Xiaoman here to get money from her.
Ning Shu was speechless. The current Chu Xiaoran really was disgusting. However, he had always been this despicable, otherwise he wouldnt have done something like s.n.a.t.c.hing another persons woman in the first place.
Xia Xiaoman had headed back with her hands empty, so shed naturally have to face Chu Xiaorans rage. Chu Xiaoran had been hoping for Xia Xiaoman to bring back two piles of money, but she hadnt even gotten a single coin.
When Xia Xiaoman said that there was no way she could ask Big Brother Wenlang for money, Chu Xiaoran completely exploded. He grabbed Xia Xiaomans hair and started slamming her head against the wall like he wanted to kill her.
Xia Xiaomans face was soon covered with blood and she pa.s.sed out. Chu Xiaoran immediately started panicking.
He hastily brought Xia Xiaoman to the hospital. Xia Xiaoman was reliant on Chu Xiaoran, but Chu Xiaoran was just as reliant on Xia Xiaoman. He wouldnt be able to survive without Xia Xiaoman. He wouldnt have food or money to gamble with.
At the hospital, the doctor said that Xia Xiaoman had a cerebral concussion, but the hospital fee wasnt cheap. Chu Xiaoran dug around at home and finally gathered enough money. After paying the hospital fee once, he completely ran out of money, so he just brought Xia Xiaoman home.
This time, Xia Xiaoman paid no attention to him. Big Brother Wenlangs one question Was this worth it? kept echoing in her mind.
She didnt know if it was worth it.
