Chapter 427 - 427 428 Peach Blossom (5) _1
?Chapter 427: Chapter 428 Peach Blossom (5) _1 Chapter 427: Chapter 428 Peach Blossom (5) _1 At eight o’clock in the evening, Jing Haohao finished her dinner. She was about to lie in bed watching TV to fall asleep when her mobile phone dinged a notification.
Jing Haohao, chuckling at the clownish actor on TV, idly picked up her mobile.
It was a notification from Weibo. Jing Haohao clicked on it and saw a photo.
It was the same sex scandal involving the TS Entertainment Company. In the new photo, the faces of the two people were still pixelated out, but the lady’s whole neck was exposed this time.
From the photo, the woman seemed to have delicate bones. Her clavicle looked particularly elegant. Her neck was covered with bruises of different colors, making the photo look ambiguous yet enchanting.
A slim diamond necklace was hung around her neck, making her neck look long and slender.
Jing Haohao was all too familiar with that diamond-studded necklace because Shen Liangnian had bought her an identical one while they were out shopping together two years ago.
Luckily, Jing Haohao and Fang Lu were shopping when they ran into Shen Liangnian and Qiao Wennuan. At that time, Jing Haohao had already started dating Liang Chen and returned the necklace to Shen Liangnian.
The necklace was a best-seller of that brand, with thousands of people around the world owning it.
However, the matching underwear, the Four Seasons Hotel, and the diamond necklace, there were too many coincidences. It made Jing Haohao realize, perhaps these weren’t coincidences at all. Her intuition had always been right; she was just deceiving herself by not accepting the reality.
She enjoyed her free life. She didn’t want to be forced to stay and live a life she didn’t want.
So, she hypnotized and comforted herself to calm her nerves.
However, even now, she was still reassuring herself that everything was just a coincidence…
Liang Chen had finally acted. What should she do? Should she go back?
But, she was not willing.
She was an individual, not his property.
Jing Haohao, pale-faced, threw her mobile aside, hugged the comforter, and sat blankly on the bed.
The humorous variety show on the TV kept the laughter alive, but Jing Haohao felt like her heart was constantly sinking, sinking endlessly with no place to stop.
…
Jing Haohao didn’t sleep all night. With dark circles under her eyes, she went to the mall.
Jin asked her worriedly what was wrong when he saw her looking unwell.
Jing Haohao shook her head, managed a smile, changed into her uniform, and when she went out, the mall’s sales clerks were chatting together.
“My boyfriend bought this for me yesterday. Do you think it looks good?”
“It looks lovely. Xiaomei, you’re so lucky. Your boyfriend treats you so well, picking you up and dropping you off every day.”
“Zhang, stop making fun of me. You’ve married a government official who brings you a stable income. You don’t have to worry about the future. And your child is so cute.”
“Jin, what about you? Where’s your boyfriend?”
“My boyfriend will be back in a few days. I’ll have him treat you all to a meal!”
“Jing Haohao, come sit with us. There aren’t many customers in the morning anyway. Let’s chat for a while.”
Jing Haohao found the smiling and carefree colleagues slightly annoying. She forced a smile and said, “I need to go to the bathroom.”
And quickly left.
Standing in front of the bathroom mirror, Jing Haohao cupped water in her hands to refresh her face.
