2768 Love Comes Like The Southern Breeze (286)
Qiao Ruoxi knew that the Mu Group was the one who had provided the champion with a chance to further their studies. However, her brother had yet to undergo surgery and her child had yet to be born. It was still too early to talk about furthering her studies.
"I can't go for the time being, at least until after the baby is born," said Qiao Ruoyi honestly.
"Baby?"
Mu Yunli stopped in surprise and turned to look at her.
"Yes, I'm pregnant with Feng Yunan's child."
Qiao Ruoxi did not want to hide it from him anymore. He already knew about her relationship with Feng Yunan from last time. It was better to tell him some things now. At the very least, he did not have to waste any more time on her.
Mu Yunli's face was really tense this time. He had always been able to face her easily, but today, he was at a loss.
He knew that he had appeared a little late, but he felt that he still had a chance.
However, it now seemed that he was wrong. It was too late.
Qiao Ruoxi and Feng Yunan already had a child. What else could he do other than to give her his blessings?
After Mu Yunli digested the shocking truth with difficulty in his heart, he squeezed out a bitter smile and said, "Not bad. Congratulations on becoming a mother soon. I also hope that he will treat you better."
"Thank you, Mr. Mu."
Mu Yunli thought of something and added, "If he doesn't treat you well, you can come to me anytime."
Qiao Ruoxi didn't say anything else. She was grateful to Mu Yunli and hoped that he could find the girl he was right for as soon as possible.
…
A new week began. On Monday, Qiao Ruoxi reported to Di Ruiling Jewelry on time.
Everything went smoothly. Qiao Ruoxi hung her work pass around her neck and officially joined the design center.
However, as soon as she entered the design center, she saw Ling Xuan. Coincidentally, her seat was directly opposite Ling Xuan's.
As soon as she came in, many eyes stared at her. Ling Xuan greeted her hypocritically, "We meet again, Qiao Ruoxi."
Qiao Ruoxi did not say anything, so Ling Xuan deliberately said, "Don't be so cold. We are all working in the same department now. We will be colleagues in the future. Please take care of me."
She even stood up and reached out to shake Qiao Ruoxi's hand.
Qiao Ruoxi had not forgotten what Ling Xuan had done to her. Ling Xuan had almost given her a miscarriage. She could not smile at her.
"There's no need to shake hands," said Qiao Ruoxi. Then, she sat down at her seat.
In the eyes of her colleagues, her indifference was a display of aloofness and arrogance.
Someone whispered that she and Ling Xuan were the champion and the runner-up respectively. The two of them were worlds apart. However, she had no manners and education at all.
Furthermore, Qiao Ruoxi did not have a university degree, while Ling Xuan graduated from a famous design university overseas. Thus, everyone acknowledged Ling Xuan more and questioned Qiao Ruoxi.
Some people even suspected that she had won the championship because she was lucky. Some even said that she had cozied up to a big shot.
When Qiao Ruoxi went to get some water, Ling Xuan also came over to make coffee. When Ling Xuan passed by her, she whispered into her ear, "Qiao Ruoxi, just you wait and see! I will definitely defeat you with my strength!"
Qiao Ruoxi ignored Ling Xuan's provocation. She only wanted to do her best because it was not easy to get her current job opportunity.
Their new colleagues gave them a test. They had to design a set of jewelry that matched Di Ruiling Jewelry's new season of products.
Qiao Ruoxi and Ling Xuan both began to work on the design. Many of their colleagues were waiting to see a good show. They wanted to see which of the two newcomers would be eliminated.
The first week of work went quite smoothly. Qiao Ruoxi did not make any big mistakes, but she never produced a design that satisfied her.
…
In the same building, in the President's office, Feng Yunan asked Xiu Yi, "How is Qiao Ruoxi doing at the design center?"
In order not to make it seem as if Qiao Ruoxi received special treatment, Feng Yunan did not go to the Di Ruiling Design Center for a week. He did not know if Qiao Ruoxi would be able to adapt to the new environment.
"Young Master, Young Madam's working condition is quite good. She's also very serious about her work."
"Good."
Feng Yunan thought of a problem and asked, "I asked you to investigate what happened five years ago at Wenjing Garden. How is it?"
If Feng Yunan hadn't asked, Xiu Yi would have forgotten to report to him. "Young Master, we've secretly visited a few old servants of Wenjing Garden. One of them saw the woman who entered your room."
"Who was it?"
"The old man said his name is Wen Chenxi, but I've checked carefully. Wen Chenxi is Wen Ruhai's eldest daughter. She seemed to have died in a fire a long time ago. That's why my subordinates are not sure. How could a person who died in a fire appear in your room? It doesn't make sense. My men still need some time to investigate."
Wen Chenxi…
This name was very unfamiliar to Feng Yunan. It was his first time hearing it.
Xiu Yi thought of something else. "By the way, I clearly remember that a girl came out of Wenjing Garden back then. She informed me to go in and pick you up. My subordinate carefully recalled that the girl looked very much like Young Madam, but I'm not sure."
After all, five years had passed. Who could remember it so clearly?
"Did Qiao Ruoyi go to Wenjing Garden five years ago?"
Feng Yunan asked in surprise. However, on second thought, it was impossible!
Wen Chenxi… Qiao Ruoxi… Both of their names had the character "xi". Was there a connection between them?
Before they could figure out what was going on, another one of the foreign team members sent back the latest report.
"Young Master, our men found Wei Lingxiao overseas. This is the document you wanted. The document shows that he was once related to Miss Wen Ke'er five years ago. According to him, he issued the order to destroy the Qiao family under the name of KANS. It was Miss Wen Ke'er who asked him to do so…"
Feng Yunan took the document in shock and read it carefully.
He never thought that Wei Lingxiao and Wen Ke'er were once a couple.
The document also showed that Wen Ke'er had once had a child with Wei Lingxiao.
Wen Ke'er and Wei Lingxiao used to be lovers, but Wen Ke'er never told him.
What puzzled him the most was why Wen Ke'er wanted Wei Lingxiao to destroy the Qiao family.
Feng Yunan suddenly realized that the Wen family and the Qiao family seemed to have a complicated relationship. What exactly happened five years ago?
In order to find out the truth, Feng Yunan took his jacket and went out. He wanted to personally ask Wen Ke'er for the reason.
…
Feng Yunan personally drove to the set where Wen Ke'er was working.
When Wen Ke'er learned that Feng Yunan was here, she rushed over as soon as she got off the set.
In a cafe near the studio, Wen Ke'er saw Feng Yunan and smiled. "Brother Nan, you finally came to see me!"
Feng Yunan raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him who was smiling beautifully. He felt terrified.
Wen Keer performed too well in front of him!
He had always thought of her as the purest angel. But now, he learned of her unbearable past.
He even suspected whether she was really the girl who had saved him at the Blue Sparrow Mountain more than ten years ago.
