Alix's end was a surprise to many because they didn't expect her to take her life. They thought she would have gone into hiding, but she chose to vanish from the face of the earth completely, abandoning her child in the process.
Alix died in disgrace, and forever she would be remembered that way. Also, her death was like a reassurance that she would never appear to cause trouble again.
Alix was dead, but many people were still talking bad about her, and this lasted for almost a week.
Bai Jun, on the other hand, thought how cruel Fu Hua was, that caused a woman like Alix to take her life because of shame.
Alix had looked unshakable to her, but it dawned on her that there was a point a human being would reach, and not want to continue the journey.
Bai Jun learned one thing from Alix's death, and that was her pride. She was shamed so much that her pride was hurt, and because she couldn't leave with it, she had to end her life.
Seeing how cruel Fu Hua was, Bai Jun was now preparing her heart for anything, and at the same time, planning a big blow.
Today, was Xiulan's last day to work for Fu Ling. She was very efficient with her work today as if she wanted to leave a lasting impression.
At the end of the work hours, she took her resignation later to Fu Ling, who signed it and directed the finance department to pay her for the current month, plus a little bonus for how hard she had worked this current year.
Xiulan left no parting words for Fu Ling. After she took her pay from the finance department, she went back to Fu Ling's office to thank him.
Before she left his office finally, Fu Ling said to her, "Miss Xiulan I wish you well."
Xiulan thanked him again and left finally. She has thought that her mind and heart would be free after resigning, but no it wasn't. It felt more chaotic and constricted.
Soon, it was the day of Jia Li and Fu Hua's wedding anniversary. Jia Li and Fu Hua posted a few pictures on their social media pages, also the Fu family posted their photos with a simple sentence caption, wishing them many wonderful years together.
All of their fans posted about them as well. They congratulates and wished them well together.
On their wedding anniversary day, was on a weekday, so Jia Li and Fu Hua both went to work. Jia Li's colleagues did not fail to gift her, as she was loved by them.
Fu Hua also received gifts from some of FJ's board of directors and also his HODs. No ordinary worker dared to gift since he wasn't easy to approach, so Jia Li was the one that received the gifts on his behalf.
At the end of work that day, they both returned home, to the little surprise the family put together for them.
The surprise was delicious dishes covering the big dining table, an anniversary cake, a few bottles of Champagne, and gifts. Also, simple decors were put around the dining room.
Jia Li and Fu Hua didn't see this until they washed up and came down for dinner. This young couple was all smiles as they were celebrated by their family.
Jasmine who couldn't stay away from food asked her mother to give her the biggest share of the cake. The little girl loved the flower decors on the cake and asked for them.
Fu Hua picked it from the center of the cake and handed it to her.
"Thank you, Daddy!" Jasmine said happily before putting it in her mouth. The flower fancy was edible and sweet, so the little girl enjoyed it.
"Da Xia, don't eat too much of it, look, there are so many dishes for you to eat here. If you finish those fancy flowers, then there would be no space in your stomach." Fu Lei said to his granddaughter with a kind smile.
"Okay, grandpa, I won't eat all of them," Jasmine replied enthusiastically.
The little girl took one more bite from the fancy cake flower, before giving it to her mother to out away, and began to eat the healthy food assembled in front of her.
The wedding anniversary celebration was so simple, yet much heartwarming.
Two days later, Meixu received more collaboration from different companies. After the trouble online and the matter was cleared, she became a hot topic.
Some people said that she had a good eye for not signing with LIXX at that time. As if she had, it would have been a slap on her face, and also her family's face if Alix was later revealed as the owner, which is true.
Meixu's fame rose because of that, and now, she was getting so many offers, including interviews, movie roles, endorsement deals, and the rest.
After spending a long time at her agency today, she was exhausted and wanted to go somewhere cool to relax.
As if he was in the spirit and knew what was going on in her mind, Shi Qiao called her and asked out for drinks and food, to which she agreed.
During the time Alix was after Meixu, Shi Qiao showed support to her publicly, which warmed a little spot in her heart, as he was not afraid of his company's stock plummeting because of her.
Now sitting in the restaurant he brought her to, Shi Qiao asked after they placed their order, "Will you be very busy at the remaining part of this year?"
"My schedule will be tight, and my manager is currently working on filling it up. I have some movie scripts to look at. Why are you asking?" Meixu replied?
Shi Qiao smiled and said to her, "I would love to hang out with you often, and I hope you will leave space in your schedule for it."
Meixu stared at him silently for a few seconds without saying anything. Shi Qiao was uncomfortable with the silence and thought that he must have stepped out of line and apologized for his actions.
"I'm sorry if I stepped out of line."
Meixu chuckled softly. She found his apologetic look funny and couldn't help laughing over it.. She wasn't annoyed with him because he didn't offend her, so it was surprising that she would laugh.
