Xu Xi turned to Jiang Nanshu and smiled: “Yes, I’ve decided to go abroad. I’ll resign from the station and go abroad to pursue a PhD. It’s better for all of us. Oh, don’t be so serious. I’ll be back in just two years. By then, your child will be able to call me godmother.”
As she spoke, she reached out and touched Jiang Nanshu’s belly, gently stroking it.
“How does it feel to be pregnant? Are you uncomfortable?”
Jiang Nanshu’s belly wasn’t particularly big yet, and she could accept it.
But she still nodded: “I feel terrible. I can’t eat or sleep well. Anyway, I’ll only have this one child in my life. There’s no way I’ll have a second one.”
Xu Xi nodded in deep agreement: “If I have children in the future, I’ll only have one.”
Jiang Nanshu looked at her with a half-smile: “Then you’d better hurry up, lest you still be all alone when my child grows up.”
Xu Xi lightly punched Jiang Nanshu’s arm: “Don’t curse me. I’ll definitely get married by the time I’m 28.”
After comforting Xu Xi, Jiang Nanshu helped her tidy up the messy house.
In the afternoon, Lu Qingyan came here to pick up Jiang Nanshu and take her home.
Xu Xi waved to Jiang Nanshu, and seeing his back, her eyes welled up with tears: “Jiang Jiang.”
“Hmm?”
Jiang Nanshu turned around. Compared to before, her once cold and aloof expression softened, making her appear much gentler.
Xu Xi smiled: “It’s okay. Wait for me to come back.”
“I know. Don’t forget me after you’ve been abroad for two years.”
Xu Xi nodded seriously: “I will.”
Jiang Nanshu waved back and, with Lu Qingyan’s help, got into the car.
After the car drove away, Xu Xi began packing her luggage, sending her few belongings back to her hometown, and then went to her landlord to cancel her lease.
She bought a ticket for the next day and deleted all contact information related to Yang Jiashu before departure.
She canceled her own card and opened a new one, which contained only her family members, Jiang Nanshu, and Yan Yidan.
Then she embarked on her journey abroad.
After Xu Xi left, the Yang family was investigated by the police.
The reason was that a shipment of seafood contained something unclean, and through their channels, this shipment would have been distributed to various places.
The CEO of the Yang Group had no idea that such a thing would appear in this batch of goods. He claimed that he had been framed and demanded that the police find out the source.
However, the signature of the CEO of Yang’s Group was indeed on the shipment document. He was detained by the police for allegedly buying and selling illegal items and was very likely to be sentenced.
And the length of the sentence depended on the severity of the case.
If it’s less severe, it will take three to five years.
If the condition is severe, it can last for more than ten years but less than twenty years.
Yang Jiashu’s brother was arrested, and now the entire Yang family was in chaos. He took over and was under investigation by the police again.
One week later, Yang Jiashu got engaged to Miss Guan.
When Jiang Nanshu learned of this news, she was having a cross-border chat with Xu Xi.
Xu Xi said that she was diligently practicing her English; foreigners were warm and interesting, and because she was from China, the people at her school were exceptionally kind to her. Plus, the scenery was beautiful, making her feel great.
Jiang Nanshu thought about it. Even though Xu Xi was far away abroad, she was still intentionally or unintentionally inquiring about Yang Jiashu’s whereabouts. She still sent Xu Xi the news of Yang Jiashu’s engagement.
Xu Xi didn’t reply to her message for the entire afternoon.
That evening, she finally sent a smiley face and replied: [I see, it was expected. I don’t want to know anything about him anymore.]
Jiang Nanshu didn’t know how to comfort her, so she could only reply: [You deserve better, Xi Xi.]
