Shen Qianqian curled her lips slightly and walked to the living room with two plates of shrimp dumplings.
She found that after she decided to find an opportunity to talk to Jiang Di about her resignation, she felt that the shrimp dumplings on the plate were much more cute and pleasing to the eye.
"Xiao Kong, here are your favorite shrimp dumplings." Shen Qianqian placed the plate in front of Xiao Kong.
"Mom, it's delicious." Xiao Kong picked up a shrimp dumpling and asked Shen Qianqian, "Mom, why don't you eat it?"
Shen Qianqian, who was in a daze, smiled and said, "Mom will eat it now."
After Xiao Kong finished eating and fell asleep, Shen Qianqian tidied up Xiao Kong's clothes under the light of the small orange lamp in the bedroom. Then, she opened the books that she hadn't opened for several days after moving in.
This time, Shen Qianqian still hoped to find a suitable job. At least, if she met a colleague that she didn't like, she could still have a job that she liked to work for a while.
On Saturday morning, Shen Qianqian sent Xiao Kong to Mother Liu, her son, and her daughter-in-law's place. Then, she took the subway to work.
Because the lunch break on Saturday was slightly longer, Jiang Di invited Shen Qianqian to have lunch together.
Originally, Shen Qianqian wanted to use the lunch time to do some reading, but she couldn't resist Jiang Di's insistence, so she had to agree.
However, what Shen Qianqian didn't expect was that when she and Jiang Di just crossed the sidewalk and turned a corner, a young woman suddenly rushed in front of her and slapped her. She didn't even see the woman's face clearly.
Shen Qianqian subconsciously raised her head and met a pair of eyes filled with jealousy. However, she had no recollection of the face that was filled with anger.
She didn't know him at all. Shen Qianqian was speechless. Before she could say, "Did you get the wrong person?", Jiang Di stepped forward.
When the woman saw Jiang Di standing in front of Shen Qianqian, she was so angry that she wanted to raise her hand again. However, this time, the slap did not fall as she wished. Jiang Di held her wrist tightly.
"Jing Nuo, what are you doing!" Jiang Di frowned and shook off her hand. He turned around and asked, "Are you okay?"
Just as Shen Qianqian was confused and did not know what was going on, the woman called Jing Nuo suddenly started sobbing. She felt wronged and started crying.
"Jiang Di, didn't you say you love me? Didn't you want to propose to me? How can you be with another woman in the blink of an eye?" Jing Nuo asked Jiang Di, wiping her tears.
Propose? Shen Qianqian was stunned. She understood the true identity of the woman in front of her.
Shen Qianqian sized up Jing Nuo. So, this was the girlfriend that Jiang Di had proposed to. She was tall, had fair skin, and was quite good-looking. However, her temper was a little bad.
"Didn't you say you didn't agree?" Jiang Di frowned, slightly annoyed.
Shen Qianqian saw that the atmosphere between the two was not very good. She felt that she might have been misunderstood. It was better to leave the scene first.
So, for Jiang Di's sake, Shen Qianqian endured the anger of being slapped for no reason. She stepped forward tentatively and whispered to Jiang Di, "Why don't you two talk first? I'll go back."
Jiang Di was helpless. He looked at Shen Qianqian apologetically and said, "Okay."
Shen Qianqian had already turned around and walked back, but the woman behind her was still shouting, "Stop!"
Jiang Di stopped Jing Nuo. When he saw that Shen Qianqian had finally walked away, he let go of Jing Nuo's hand.
"Is it because of this woman that you insist on breaking up with me?" Jing Nuo asked angrily with her hands on her hips.
"You know best why I want to break up with you. You and your ex-boyfriend are still together. I have tolerated it many times, but I won't do it again in the future." Jiang Di's gaze was no longer as gentle as before. Instead, it was cold.
When Jing Nuo saw that Jiang Di was really going to turn around and leave, she anxiously blocked Jiang Di's way and said, "I promise you, it won't happen again. Didn't you want to propose to me? I promise you."
Jing Nuo looked at Jiang Di with pleading eyes and held his hand tightly. However, this time, Jiang Di was not soft-hearted. He pulled his hand out of her hand.
"Jiang Di, you still say it's not because of this woman?" Jing Nuo suddenly raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, "These few days, you haven't seen me. I've gone to your exhibition hall and asked around. There's a woman called Su Yun who told me that you're having a good time with this woman."
"Jing Nuo, are you done?" Jiang Di's sharp eyes swept over her. The original coldness was replaced by a thin layer of anger.
"I'm not. Didn't you say that you like me very much? But this doesn't stop you from liking others, right?" Jing Nuo insisted on blocking Jiang Di's way as if he was a heartless man, which attracted the attention of many people on the street.
Although Jiang Di didn't care about other people's eyes, he had been tired of it for a long time. There was impatience in his eyes.
"Jing Nuo, although we are over, there are some things that I still want to make clear to you. That woman just now is just my colleague. I don't have that kind of feeling for her. Don't judge me with your style and vision."
Jiang Di sighed slightly. After all, he had sincerely loved the woman in front of him. He lowered his voice and said, "I have been with you for three years. Let's part on good terms. It's time for you to find the person you like."
"No, I just found out that the person I really like is you." Jing Nuo began to cry again. She felt that what she said now was not a lie. Because when Jiang Di really decided to leave, she found that she was used to him.
"Don't lie to yourself, this isn't it." Jiang Di pulled his hand away and looked at Jing Nuo resolutely. "Don't come to me again."
Jiang Di wanted to go directly to the company to find Shen Qianqian. Later, he thought that Shen Qianqian might not even have eaten. He didn't know if her face was fine, so he changed his route. He first went to the pharmacy, then to the mall to buy some food.
Jing Nuo looked at Jiang Di's disappearing figure. After hesitating for a moment, she still felt that she couldn't let go of the resentment in her heart. She was ready to rush to the company to find trouble with Shen Qianqian.
Jing Nuo went to the company angrily. However, on the bench outside the company, she found Shen Qianqian.
Shen Qianqian thought about the recent troubles. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she should resign from the company earlier.
Shen Qianqian was thinking about it when suddenly a sharp female voice sounded beside her.
"You're here." Jing Nuo said sarcastically. "Why are you pretending to be pitiful? Are you waiting for Jiang Di to pity you?"
Shen Qianqian frowned and got up. She looked at Jing Nuo in confusion. Why were women so unreasonable recently? Did they want to find trouble with others without knowing what was right or wrong?
"Stop right there." Jing Nuo saw that Shen Qianqian completely ignored her and turned to leave. She immediately rushed in front of her, grabbed her hand and pulled hard. When she turned around, she raised her hand and was ready to slap Shen Qianqian again.
"Slap!"
The crisp sound of the slap sounded. However, this time it didn't fall on Shen Qianqian's face, but on Jing Nuo's face.
Jing Nuo covered her cheek and looked at her in disbelief. Shen Qianqian glanced at her sharply and loosened her grip on Jing Nuo's arm.
"You …" Jing Nuo didn't expect Shen Qianqian to react so quickly. She looked a little weak, but there was a touch of determination in her eyes.
"The first time, you slapped me without saying anything. I can take it as a misunderstanding. But now that you want to find trouble with me, I'll return it all to you." Shen Qianqian said fearlessly.
"I don't know what conflict you have with Manager Jiang, but others are not the target of your venting. You don't have to bear this. You solve your own problem. If you can't solve it, then bear it."
Shen Qianqian finished speaking and turned to leave. Jing Nuo wanted to stop her, but she immediately turned her head and warned her, "If you come to find trouble with me again, I'll hit you again. It doesn't matter if we're inside or outside."
Shen Qianqian's actions and domineering eyes probably scared Jing Nuo, so she really left with her tail between her legs.
Su Yun, who had been looking out of the exhibition hall, immediately pretended that nothing had happened when she saw Shen Qianqian return. She turned her body to one side, but her eyes still glanced at her from time to time.
Shen Qianqian originally wanted to ignore her, but when she passed by Su Yun, Su Yun suddenly said in a strange tone, "Aiyo, what's wrong with your face? It seems a little red and swollen. Don't tell me you …"
There were still people walking around in the exhibition hall. Su Yun deliberately raised her voice and pretended to make a fuss. "Don't tell me you were hit by someone."
Su Yun clicked her tongue and said, "Don't tell me you were seducing a man and got caught by his real girlfriend."
Shen Qianqian looked at Su Yun thoughtfully. When she heard the woman's words just now, she suddenly felt that maybe Su Yun was the one who "tipped off" her to the woman's sudden "attack" today. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that Su Yun's eyes were on her, and that woman just happened to block her?
"You know what happened, right?" Shen Qianqian didn't want to argue with Su Yun anymore. Anyway, she was going to leave her job soon, so she didn't want to bother with her at all.
Shen Qianqian turned around and left. Jiang Di pushed the door open and came in.
Jiang Di saw Shen Qianqian's back flash by and enter the office. He returned to his office and sent a message to Shen Qianqian.
"Are you okay? I'll wait for you on the rooftop."
The text message notification sounded. Shen Qianqian picked it up and looked at the message on it. She hesitated for a moment.
After a long while, Shen Qianqian still decided to go up.
Gently pushing open the door of the security elevator, Shen Qianqian saw Jiang Di's tall and straight back appear in front of her.
The afternoon sun was dazzling and warm. Shen Qianqian hesitated for a moment and slowly stepped forward.
"Manager Jiang …" Shen Qianqian was considering whether to say that she wanted to resign at this time.
Jiang Di, who was looking at Shen Qianqian from afar, heard Shen Qianqian's voice behind him. He immediately turned his head and looked at Shen Qianqian apologetically. "Is your face okay?"
