"Ningyu, apologize!" Seeing the two of them enter, Mo Yichen pulled Mo Ningyu over, his tone very serious.
Mo Ningyu's personality was aloof and proud. Although her mood had changed a lot, she had never apologized to anyone since she was young.
Turning her head to the side, she stood up and walked straight towards the bathroom.
"Ningyu, stop!" Mo Yichen called out to her, wanting to make her stay, but Sha Zhixing's voice suddenly sounded. "Wow, everyone has prepared so many things today. Could it be that they specially arranged it because they knew I was coming?"
Her sweet voice was filled with joy. There was not a hint of bad mood in it. She sounded like she was fine, and even sounded a little narcissistic.
The rest of the people in the room burst into laughter after her words, and the tense atmosphere dissipated as well.
Mo Ningyu, who had just taken a few steps, turned around and looked at her in a daze. She could not believe that she could smile so naturally.
Did she not mind at all?
Mo Yichen and the others were also very surprised by Sha Zhixing's attitude. Only Luo Xichen's expression did not change at all. He hugged her and sat down on the sofa. He took a small plate of cake, scooped it up with a small spoon, and lovingly brought it to her lips. "Since everyone has prepared so much for you, don't let them down," he said casually.
"I'll go to the washroom first. I'll come back later." Sha Zhixing pushed his hand away and stood up and walked straight to the washroom. She acted as if nothing had happened from the beginning to the end, as if nothing had happened two days ago.
Mo Ningyu looked at her quietly and went to the washroom with her.
Sha Zhixing acted as if she did not see her. She washed her hands, wiped her hands with a tissue, and was about to leave.
When she brushed past Mo Ningyu, she suddenly grabbed Sha Zhixing's wrist.
Sha Zhixing stopped in her tracks, but she did not turn around.
Mo Ningyu looked at her fixedly and suddenly asked, "So generous?"
Sha Zhixing knew that she was referring to the incident on the cruise ship. After a moment of silence, she said coldly, "It has nothing to do with you. It's only because of him!"
Him? Xichen?
Sha Zhixing did not explain and went straight to the private room.
Mo Ningyu looked at her back quietly and suddenly called out to her. "Sha Zhixing!"
Sha Zhixing stopped in her tracks and waited for her to continue.
"Do you know the real reason why everyone is gathered here today?" Mo Ningyu's voice came from behind her again.
Sha Zhixing's back stiffened and she turned her head slowly.
"What do you mean?" Her eyes were locked on her and her voice was cold.
"Xichen is going to Northern Ireland. He will stay there for a long time. Everyone is doing it for him!" Mo Ningyu raised her voice.
Boom!
Something seemed to explode in Sha Zhixing's head.
Luo Xichen is going to Northern Ireland?
Why didn't he tell her about this?
Mo Ningyu did not say anything. She turned around and walked past her to the private room.
Sha Zhixing's mind was in a mess. She did not go straight to her room. Instead, she went to the boulevard outside the Imperial City to clear her head.
Luo Xichen did not see her. He was afraid that something might happen to her, so he came all the way here a few minutes later.
Sha Zhixing stood under a phoenix tree with her back to him. A few purple petals fell from her hair. Her slender back was straight as if she was deep in thought.
"What's wrong?" Luo Xichen asked gently as he walked behind her.
Sha Zhixing slowly turned around and looked at Luo Xichen. She pursed her lips and said, "Luo Xichen, I'm firing you!"
