Chapter 1540. Sister Xi, You''re Tough


    After she walked off for a few steps, she turned back and kicked her feet viciously on the table in front of everyone. All the girls instantly staggered backward in fright.


    Lastly, let me warn you all. Dont ever let me hear you say that things dont look too good for my man. You better not mess with me. Right now, my fianc is missing and I feel terrible, so Im not afraid to do crazy things. Its none of your business as to whether or not Ill end up as a spinster. Even if Im rotting away alone for the rest of my life, its my own business, Nian Xi said. With that, she walked over to the corner with dignity and found a spot to settle down.


    Even though there were many people in the meeting room, nobody dared to make a sound. Everyone nced at her furtively in fear, and even the older men did not dare to breathe out loud, out of fear that it would draw out the ire of Nian Xi, who had just lost her fianc.


    Cheng Jing sat down beside her and secretly gave her a thumbs up. Sister Xi, youre tough!


    Nian Xi took one nce at her without speaking.


    Cheng Jing quickly patted her on the shoulder gently and said, Dont be angry anymore. Those gossip mongers are just jealous of you. Things didnt go well in their own lives, so theyre unhappy. Thats why theyre very pleased when misfortune befalls upon others.


    I know. Im feeling downtely, but I suddenly feel less oppressed after venting it out, Nian Xi replied loudly. As expected, you need to find someone to be your punching bag when youre in a bad mood!


    The group of people seated in front of her was scared speechless when they heard what she said.


    Subsequently, for a long time, nobody in the police station dared to mention Jiang Yunings name in Nian Xis presence. There was no news about Jiang Yuning, and many people thought that it was likely that he had died. Probably because this came as a strong blow to Nian Xi, she began to practice her marksmanship in the shooting range or practice with a punching bag whenever she was free. A fine, unmarrieddy like her soon became quite tanned when summer only just began.


    On Murong Zes birthday, Nian Xi was invited over to his banquet, and when Yu Wen saw the state that she was in, she was heartbroken. Xixi, Yuning is a good man, and we all like him very much. But you have to be forward-looking. Youre still young, and you have a long life ahead. Dont wallow in self-pity over his disappearance, she said.


    Grandma, Im not wallowing in self-pity, Nian Xi replied softly as she stared at the ground.


    You are, Yu Wen rebutted as she held onto Nian Xis hands. Look at you. Youve trimmed off your hair, and your skin has be as tan as Louis Koo. Youve also lost weight and your hands are covered in thick calluses. They feel so rough now that they seem as if youve been chopping wood in the mountains every day


    Nian Xis lips twitched, and Luosang could not help but speak up, Its not as tan as Louis Koo! Youre being too dramatic.


    Close enough, Yu Wen said. Its only the start of summer. Will she be as tan as an African by the end of summer then?


    Ive been practicing my marksmanship and physicalbat skillstely, so Im less particr about my appearance as before, said Nian Xi calmly.


    Xixi, youre a distinguished descendant of our family, Murong Ze exined. Your mother wanted to raise you like a princess when she gave birth to you back then. It truly breaks our hearts to see you like this. Be a good girl and dont tire yourself out. Youre still young. When you gradually age, youll know that youll be able to put certain things behind you. Youll still want to marry someone.


    I know, Nian Xi said, and she felt her nose burn slightly. She then held up her chopsticks and continued, Lets dig in. Its rare for me to have a day off that I can use to spend with you guys. Im leaving if we continue to talk about this.


    Let her be, Grandma and Grandpa, Nian Junting consoled softly. Our family is filthy rich, and if she cant find a spouse in the end, we have enough money to support her wilful ways for the rest of her life.


    Yu Wen let out a long sigh.


    After the group came out from Feng Garden at 7:00 p.m., Nian Xi was the first to leave in her car. Luosangs heart went out to Nian Xi as she watched her leave. I suddenly think that Im pretty blessed when I see how Nian Xi is, she said.
