Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 605 - 341 He’s so fierce!_2

Shen Zhixi’s phone lit up briefly. It was a message from Shen Zhiqiao, saying that she had something come up and to wait a bit longer for her.

Shen Zhixi didn’t reply, not even bothering to look at it.

Time ticked by, second after second, until the phone screen turned off automatically from being unattended for so long, and the inside of the car darkened once again.

His car was parked behind Jiang Xuan’s, which was right next to a streetlight, while his own was shrouded in the shadow cast by Jiang Xuan’s car.

The first thing Shen Zhixi did when he came to the human world was to kidnap Xia Ye. He thought he might have done so for revenge, or maybe he just wanted to ask her, to ask her why she wasn’t grateful for everything he had done for her, why she didn’t help him when he was being tortured.

Later, because Xia Ye’s soul was sealed, all the accusations were stuck in his throat, but now that it had been unsealed and she had returned, he didn’t want to ask anymore.

He didn’t see what they did inside the car, but the room for imagination was more maddening than seeing the reality.

After getting out of the car, Xia Ye walked to the driver’s side. Her interactions with Jiang Xuan inside the car, the looks they exchanged, and every gesture stirred Shen Zhixi’s nerves. ƒгeewebnovёl_com

Because, at least in his eyes, Xia Ye had once looked at him with the same gaze...

He didn’t want to ask those questions anymore; he could find another way. He could treat her even better than Jiang Xuan, much better.

He wanted... that look to return.

FB’s team made it to the quarter-finals, and it dominated several trending searches. The match was won handsomely and was practically a foregone conclusion.

Fans were waiting at the airport with light signs and flowers to welcome the team, celebrating their glorious homecoming.

The team, dressed in their uniforms, simply walking out of the arrival gate with their long strides, was enough to send a thrilling rush of excitement through anyone.

By the time they exited the airport, each member’s hands were filled with chibi dolls fashioned after them.

Pang Shen didn’t have anything, but from the crowd of fans, he spotted the most enthusiastic one, Zhou Yao.

The journalists’ questions mostly revolved around Xia Ye and her apprentice, as their standout performances in the O-zone friendship tournament had been a highlight, and their absence from the quarterfinals was the only disappointment.

Pang Shen said, "The two kids need to be in school, such minor competitions don’t need their participation. When the big brothers make it to the finals, we’ll take them abroad for fun."

It sounded boastful, but the journalists knew they had the ability to back it up.

Fans were screaming madly. Xia Xing, irritated by jet lag and fatigue, only slightly lifted his eyelids. Victory in the match was already commonplace for him, until he opened his phone and saw a message from Little Tiangao, which finally made the corners of his lips turn up.

Heaven Has No Eyes: Watched the match, second brother is so cool~

Xia Xing’s fatigue instantly vanished. Having such an adorable sister was truly the most wonderful thing in the world.

He was glad she had returned, back to their side.

The second semester of freshman year seemed to pass particularly quickly, as new students adapted to the pace of life at Beijing University and began to find their stride.

Shen Zhiqiao had not been to the hospital for a while; the last time she saw Liu Manyi’s check-up report, it had seemed very strange to her.

However, she heard that Liu Manyi and the baby had been discharged from the hospital and were out of danger.

Shen Zhiqiao was currently at the Life Sciences Institute, revising the morning’s experimental data on her computer after the lab session.

"That’s my goddaughter."

The speaker was Xia Ye, seated with Huang Yan and Ji Xiaomin at the next table. Xia Ye had saved several photos of Jiang Xiaohua on her phone and introduced her as her goddaughter to anyone she met.

The little one was much fairer now, unlike the bluish-purple tint that covered her body when she was just born, with only a few strands of hair on her head. But her delicate features were beginning to take shape.

Xia Ye often visited the Jiang Family to see Xiaohua. Jiang Yunyang also liked this little sister and wanted to hold her every day, but Jiang Yunzhou wouldn’t let him.

Now, it was a common sight to see Jiang Yunzhou, holding Jiang Xiaohua very professionally, speed walking ahead while Jiang Yunyang stumbled behind him, unable to catch up despite his hurried attempts, his little legs simply too short.

Liu Manyi, the biological mother, could hardly get close to her own daughter except for when it was time to breastfeed.

Huang Yan said, "The kid looks very healthy, not like a premature baby."

Ji Xiaomin said, "Her mom must be a great beauty, I wouldn’t be wasting my youth in the Academy of Sciences if I had that nose."

Huang Yan asked her, "Where would you go if not to the Academy of Sciences?"

Ji Xiaomin replied, "To beauty pageants~ To become a star~ To marry a rich guy~"

"..."

In this day and age, it was rare to meet someone so honest about their desires. Huang Yan fell silent, then commented, "Perhaps that’s exactly why heaven didn’t give you a high nose bridge."
