“You must be kidding me.”
Ji Yunshi mumbled with a pale face.
Gu Qingjiu heard that clearly, but she didn’t deliberately ask. She merely cast a glance at her child and said, “You’re married and even have a child? Your child is adorable.”
With that, she greeted the baby in a friendly manner.
Snot bubbles blew out from the baby’s nose as the baby happily gazed at her.
Ji Yunshi shifted the child’s face away, looking displeased as she replied blandly with a hum.
Gu Qingjiu, who could tell that Ji Yunshi wasn’t too keen on continuing this conversation, stopped talking.
She wasn’t interested in engaging someone who was showing her a cold attitude.
From what she remembered, Ji Yunshi was a girl as high-profile as Zhong Xiaoxiao in their class.
Ji Yunshi was multi-talented, and at the time liked singing and dancing. She was the sort of outstanding girl who would participate in the school’s annual singing and dancing competitions.
Although her academic results weren’t particularly striking, back then she also had plenty of admirers.
Gu Qingjiu remembered that Ji Yunshi was in that group that wanted to enroll in university, but from what she could see now, it was clear that she didn’t finish her university studies, or maybe never even enrolled in it.
Or else, she wouldn’t have such a child of this age so quickly.
Her countenance also looked quite terrible, making one wonder what she had gone through.
Life was unpredictable like this.
“Yunshi, Qingjiu.”
Zhong Xiaoxiao walked over and greeted them with a smile. Gu Qingjiu naturally nodded in response. Ji Yunshi, however, appeared a tad awkward as she evaded Zhong Xiaoxiao’s gaze and then hummed.
Ji Yunshi’s condition was very much like that when she first saw Gu Qingjiu. But after Gu Qingjiu revealed her identity, she seemed to grasp something.
However, facing Zhong Xiaoxiao, Ji Yunshi looked pathetic in comparison.
She was reluctant to even look at the duo before her.
Zhong Xiaoxiao lowered her body and teased the baby in Ji Yunshi’s arms. “Your child is pretty adorable. Such an obedient baby.”
She had just finished speaking when Ji Yunshi suddenly spoke out in a displeased, shrill voice. “Stop with the sarcasm.”
Zhong Xiaoxiao halted, then sat down beside Gu Qingjiu. “I wasn’t being sarcastic. I was only speaking the truth. Back then it was your choice to have the baby. No one forced you into it.”
Ji Yunshi stared at the two girls before her, who were similarly poised, elegant, pretty, and had an outstanding disposition, without the vulgar air of some ordinary girls. They were the perfect example of a fair, rich, and beautiful woman.
Even the chubby lass Gu Qingjiu whom she used to despise, was now so strikingly outstanding.
Contrasting herself, who had a sloppy and ungroomed appearance, on top of a terrible countenance, and a child in her arms, looking totally like a married woman.
The contrast was stark.
They were seated opposite, and the distance between them was like a distinguished line, piercing into the depths of Ji Yunshi’s heart which had become increasingly fragile in recent years.
She clenched her teeth and simply walked away with her baby.
Unwilling to speak another word with them.
Gu Qingjiu didn’t say anything. Zhong Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, looked up and murmured as she stared after Ji Yunshi’s back view. “She was the one who chose her path. Who could she blame? Back then she insisted on being together with that man and as a result, didn’t even get to attend university. Now that she turned into this state, who could she blame? Aye…”
She sighed as she explained the reason behind Ji Yunshi’s transformation.
There were plenty of people like her in real life, and myriads of reasons could have caused them to land in such a state.
Just then, someone pushed open the door from outside, following which a glamorous person entered.
Clad in a white dress, with long hair draping past her shoulders, carrying a small handbag, looking exquisite and gracious. As she entered, she cast a glance that carried a hint of arrogance at the others.
There was a high-and-mighty air about her.
And this person was Xie Yuning whom Gu Qingjiu was on bad terms with back then.
