Jiang Xi lost face on Rong Nian's bed in the morning and spent the entire day avoiding him.
As soon as work was over, she quickly packed up her things and took off.
She had just left the company when her phone rang. She picked it up and saw it was a call from Mrs. Luo.
Jiang Xi looked at her phone, gathering a full ten seconds' worth of energy, before pressing the answer button.
"Jiang Xi, what did I tell you? I said you are not allowed to divorce Bichen. You're not allowed to divorce him. Are you trying to anger me to death?"
As soon as the call connected, Mrs. Luo's roaring voice came through, nearly deafening Jiang Xi.
She held the phone away from her ear, listening to Mrs. Luo rant for a full five minutes before she spoke.
"Gu Bichen is climbing up the social ladder, eager to throw me away. I really can't help it," Jiang Xi said with a mix of innocence and helplessness.
