1120 Perplexed and Smitten 180 (1/2)
”I'm sorry.” As soon as she said her piece, he apologized. ”Will that do?” he continued.
”You're not sincere at all.”
”What must I do to show that I'm sincere?”
Instead of answering him, she got out of bed and placed the glass and her mobile phone onto the table before helping him to the washroom.
There were more than ten disposable toothbrushes provided by the hospital.
He squeezed some toothpaste onto the toothbrush and began brushing.
An Xiaoning stood beside him and looked at his reflection in the mirror.
Likewise, he stared at hers and discovered that she was staring at him blankly without blinking. After rinsing his mouth, he asked, ”What are you looking at?”
”Nothing much.”
Just as she was about to help him out of the bathroom, he stopped her and said, ”I have to relieve nature's call.” When they reached the toilet bowl, he said awkwardly, ”I… I need to do a number two.”
She tried to help him remove his pants, as if she were his mother. He quickly said, ”You may go out, I'll remove my pants on my own.”
”Alright, be careful not to fall down.” She exited and waited outside.
An Xiaoning cleaned up the table and disposed all the leftover food and cans of beer into the rubbish bin. She then picked up the garbage bag and handed it to the bodyguard outside, telling him to chuck it inside the large trash can.
She then opened the windows to let some fresh air in. She felt much more relaxed while standing by the window and letting the cool breeze caress her face.
What a wonderful feeling.
After she'd been standing there quietly for about six minutes, her mobile phone began to ring all of a sudden. If not for that, she wouldn't have bothered moving.
It was a call from Mei Yangyang.
”Yangyang.”
”Sis, hurry and go online to take a look at Weibo. Someone uploaded a video of you in the hospital ward. It was uploaded not long ago. I just informed Chief Fan about it. Hurry and go take a look. I've already sent you a link to the video clip.”
”Okay.”
She immediately went on Weibo after ending the call. She first checked the list of hot topics being searched to see that her name was not on it before proceeding to watch the video clip.
The video depicted the entire scene that took place from the moment she entered the ward up until Hu Xin left.
It was obvious who had uploaded the video.
Hu Xin had even deliberately tagged a few marketing accounts that had massive numbers of followers, as well as the official accounts of several media companies.
Currently, two of the marketing accounts had already shared the video clip on their pages, and they had even posted a new thread that included screenshots of Hu Xin's post as well as the original video clip.
There had already been hundreds of comments on Hu Xin's Weibo post within a short period of time…
An Xiaoning skimmed through the comments and found that all the netizens were berating her and showing sympathy for Jin Qingyan, just like she had expected.
Moreover, the netizens seemed to have become detectives and began speculating about the tricks that An Xiaoning had used to deal with Jin Qingyan and take over the Jin Corporation.
They began conjecturing over An Xiaoning's motives.
They began spreading the word around zealously, as if they had just discovered a groundbreaking secret.
One of the most liked comments read: ”Everyone, hurry and save a copy of the video clip. This is a massive exposure of the dark side of society. I can't believe the owner of the mighty Jin Corporation would actually succumb to a woman who had him wrapped around her finger. An Xiaoning's dirty tricks are clearly very effective. From the way I see it, she must have compelled Jin Qingyan into marrying her twice. As shown in this video clip, Jin Qingyan had long been driven to his wits' end by this woman! What he needs now is the help and support of us netizens. Everyone, hurry and spread the word!”
After she stared at that comment for almost a minute, an unforgettable memory popped up in her head.
For as long as she could remember, she had always known that she was not a favorable child.
