682 Life is Unpredictable

Shen Hanxing looked at Lu Feng’s lonely back and sighed. It could only be said that fate made a fool of people. There were always many things in this world that could not go as one wished them to.

Just as Shen Hanxing was lost in her thoughts, Ji Yan’s warm hand held hers and he looked gently at her with his dark eyes. “Madam, you’re not happy?”

Shen Hanxing could not help but look up at Ji Yan. He seemed to always be able to sense the changes in her emotions, as if he was watching her at all times. Shen Hanxing could not help but smile. She held Ji Yan’s hand in return and shook her head, “I’m just a little emotional.” Life was unpredictable, just like how Lu Feng should have been happy and full of spirit, but now he was all alone, just waiting for death in a small department of Lu Corporation. He was a piece of trash that people talked about, and whether he struggled or gave up all depended on others.

“Life is impermanent, but people are always the same.” Ji Yan’s deep voice fell into Shen Hanxing’s ears, sounding a little nonchalantly overbearing. “Isn’t one’s life meant to fight against Fate?” Ji Yan’s dark eyes fell on Shen Hanxing’s face. His calm gaze was deep, but there was a frightening stubbornness hidden within it. Ji Yan thought that before he met Shen Hanxing, he had let nature take its course most of the time. There was nothing to persist in and he did not care about life or death. However, after he met Shen Hanxing, he was filled with ambition and desire, which gave rise to even more stubbornness. No matter which step Fate wanted to push him to, he would not give in. He only wanted to be with her forever and ever, and no one could separate them.

Shen Hanxing pursed her lips and smiled. Hadn’t she been fighting against Fate her entire life? She felt a little relieved and then turned to look at Ji Yan. “I’m a little hungry after all that fuss. Let’s go get something to eat?”

Ji Yan naturally nodded in agreement. The Lu Family’s wedding was really full of ups and downs. Fortunately, the people in the upper-cla.s.s society were all actors with excellent acting skills. In the second half of the wedding, everyone had a tacit understanding and no longer mentioned the unpleasant things that had happened before. The wedding ended smoothly. By the time they got off the cruise, the sky was already dark. The lights on the beach were on, and luxury cars came and went to pick up their owners.

Shen Hanxing had Jiyan’s suit jacket draped over her shoulders. She held his arm as they walked down the escalator. Not far away, Wei Xi’er and Zhuang Li were talking about something in each other’s arms. A sweet smile appeared on their faces as they bent over to get into the car. Shen Hanxing’s eyes flickered when she saw this. She was already used to people coming and going. Friends in a person’s life were destined to meet and go their own ways. After Wei Xi’er had taken the initiative to distance herself from her, she was not going to tactlessly stick around and cause trouble. At first, Shen Hanxing thought that she and Wei Xi’er should have distanced themselves from each other like this and become cold strangers. However, on the cruise ship today, Wei Xi’er was the first to reach out to her. The worry in her eyes was not fake.

Shen Hanxing stopped in her tracks. Ji Yan tilted his head and glanced at her. There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes, but they also seemed to be overflowing with love. His wife looked cold and decisive on the surface, but she actually had a heart softer than anyone else’s. She would always remember the little kindness of others. Ji Yan didn’t rush Shen Hanxing. He just stood with her in the cool sea breeze and said nothing.

As the car door opened, Shen Hanxing called out, “Miss Wei.”

The smile on Wei Xi’er’s face froze. She turned to look at Shen Hanxing and moved her red lips. For a moment, she did not know what to say. She did not hate Shen Hanxing because of what she had said to her. She knew very well that Shen Hanxing had said those things to her because she saw her as a friend. She just did not know how to face Shen Hanxing. She had promised her properly back then, but she had ended up with Zhuang Li and had even said some nasty things to Shen Hanxing. She kept feeling a little guilty.

Zhuang Li followed Wei Xi’er’s line of sight to look at Shen Hanxing. The smile on his face faded. It wasn’t clear when it had happened, but Zhuang Li’s cold haughtiness had turned into complete arrogance. His eyes were getting darker and darker. He was like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, dangerous and cold, making people feel very uncomfortable.

Shen Hanxing glared at Zhuang Li coldly. She felt that some of his actions were extremely revolting and did not seem like the way a boss should act. Just like now, his eyes were cold and his chin was raised. He should have looked domineering and intimidating to others, but in Shen Hanxing’s eyes, he was like a rooster with its neck raised. He did not feel intimidating or domineering at all. She only found him a little ridiculous.
