Chapter 136: Chapter 136: I Care About You (2)_1

In the past, when there were no grudges, Xia Wan’an wouldn’t have noticed many things. However, now that there were, she realized it’d been like this for many years. Whenever Han Zhijin was present, Ai Jiang would barely chat with her and Song Youman.

Even with this newfound knowledge, Xia Wan’an acted as usual, absent-mindedly slumping onto the table with a listless, sleepy posture.

This time, though, she didn’t doze off. Instead, she stayed alert to listen to the conversation between Ai Jiang and Han Zhijin.

"Hey? Han Zhijin, your phone case is pretty nice."

"Oh."

"Where did you buy it? Do you have a link? I want to get one too."

"It’s a gift from Youman. You should ask her."

"Oh, I see. Is this Bluetooth earpiece your newest model? Can I check it out?"

"..."

Listening to their conversation, Xia Wan’an couldn’t help but smirk.

Ai Jiang was trying to flirt with Han Zhijin, but poor Han Zhijin... didn’t realize it at all!

"Ding Dong——"

At the sound of a notification, Xia Wan’an lifted her head and glanced at the illuminating phone screen.

It was a reply from Qin Shujian to a message she had sent the previous night: "Little Fourth Sister, don’t worry, I’m safe. There won’t be a tsunami. I checked the latest weather forecasts, and it’s all sunny. I’m afraid of getting tanned, so I use a lot of sunscreen every day!"

Xia Wan’an: "..."

The most awkward thing in the world is to tell a joke, but the other person doesn’t understand.

Xia Wan’an was speechless and another message came in: "Little Fourth Sister, thanks for your concern."

Xia Wan’an: "..."

Xia Wan’an: "I really want to know, how did you manage to survive until now?"

The message that Xia Wan’an sent out received no response for a long time.

Just as she was about to put down her phone and continue pretending to sleep on her desk while eavesdropping on Ai Jiang flirting with Han Zhijin, a text from Qin Shujian came in.

It was a long message.

"Me? My parents favored boys over girls and thought I was dumb when I was little, so they got rid of me. It was my grandmother who took me in and raised me, yet she wasn’t my biological grandmother. When I went to school, I’d always end up last in class, and my classmates would make fun of me. After graduating from high school, I stopped studying because my grades were too low. Then, I decided to become a server and later a film extra. Until, I encountered my agent and somehow became famous."

Xia Wan’an had made a sarcastic remark, yet Qin Shujian answered it seriously.

If it had been another time, Xia Wan’an might have been speechless, but at that moment, seeing these messages from Qin Shujian stirred up unutterable feelings in her.

It turns out, everyone you see shining brightly in this world has probably gone through a heartbreaking journey you know nothing about.

Like Jingnian, like Qin Shujian...

"Little Fourth Sister, why did you suddenly ask me this? You’re concerned about me, aren’t you?"

Seeing Qin Shujian’s new message, Xia Wan’an’s lips twitched up slightly. Then she typed a line back: "Yeah, I’m worried about you."

"Wan’an, who are you texting with? You look so happy?" Ai Jiang suddenly leaned over.

Xia Wan’an instinctively hid her phone, intending to say "a friend," but the words stalled in her throat. Then, looking at Ai Jiang with a teasing smile, she spat out two words: "He Che."
