In just a few days, Xia Jiaojiao suffered the most beatings she had accumulated over the years.

Even when she was naughty as a child, Xia Mingyuan never laid a finger on her, but now, after being beaten repeatedly, Xia Jiaojiao is completely stunned.

What do you mean, "Let her see who he is"? Who else could he be? Who else could he be but Qiao Nansheng?

She personally led Qiao Nansheng to the men's restroom, watched him go in, and personally put up the sign that it was being cleaned at the door. How could that be wrong?

Xia Jiaojiao refused to believe it and forcefully pried the man's face up.

"How...how could it be you?" Xia Jiaojiao took several steps back and bumped into the wall behind her to steady herself.

Where exactly did things go wrong? How could it not be Qiao Nansheng?

Xia Jiaojiao looked around and finally saw Song Lingge and Qiao Nansheng standing side by side with her.

Qiao Nansheng was there, beside Song Lingge.

I wonder how long they've been here, or if they've been here since the beginning?

In their eyes, was she just like a ridiculous clown?

But Xia Jiaojiao couldn't figure out what went wrong. How could Qiao Nansheng turn into Zhang Binbin?

This question needed to be answered by Zhang Binbin. Xia Jiaojiao glared at him angrily: "What are you doing here? Tell me, how could it be you?"

Zhang Binbin's lips trembled several times, unsure how to answer the question.

He straightened his clothes, which had been torn by Xia Jiaojiao during their passionate encounter, and bowed to Xia Mingyuan: "Director Xia, Jiaojiao and I... Don't worry, no matter what others say, as long as you agree, I will definitely take responsibility for Jiaojiao."

After saying that, Zhang Binbin, ignoring Xia Jiaojiao's attempts to pull him away, struggled to squeeze out of this troublesome place.

He's a tough guy too, able to persevere for so long amidst the scornful looks and words of others. He and Xia Jiaojiao are truly a perfect match.

The male lead left, and Xia Jiaojiao's body went limp, collapsing against the wall and half-sitting on the ground.

She frantically rubbed her hair, venting her frustration: "What went wrong? How did it turn out to be him?"

No matter how infuriating she is, she is still his biological daughter. Since Zhang Binbin has promised to take responsibility and at least has another partner, there is no need to let her continue to embarrass herself in public.

Even if one's mind has calmed down, one's attitude and words cannot change so quickly.

"What are you still doing clinging to there? Get back home right now."

After Xia Mingyuan finished speaking, he turned and left. He had already lost face beyond belief. If he stayed here any longer, he would be the one collapsing on the ground crying.

The matter was almost over, and Song Lingge originally wanted to pull Qiao Nansheng and Qin Sihai away.

However, regardless of the circumstances, Xia Mingyuan was the host today, and it would seem impolite for them to leave quietly.

So she had no choice but to stand aside; she really didn't intend to stay there and watch the spectacle.

Besides, there are no more jokes to watch now; we've seen everything we needed to. If we stay any longer, given Xia Jiaojiao's personality, she'll probably take her anger out on her again.

God is my witness, Song Lingge did not do anything malicious this time, and she never expected to see such a big show.

If the blame had to be pinned on her, she could only accept one thing: she wasn't entirely unaware of the situation. However, Xia Jiaojiao's retribution was entirely her own doing and had nothing to do with her.

Song Lingge was not surprised by Zhang Binbin's appearance.

When Song Lingge ran into Fang Guanghua at the supermarket, she admitted that mentioning Xia Jiaojiao was intentional, but she did nothing else.

Since Fang Guanghua is interested in her, he will definitely be interested in the dinner she suddenly mentioned, and will naturally investigate why Xia Jiaojiao would have dinner with Song Lingge.

Fang Guanghua was able to learn about Xia Jiaojiao's situation only through his crony friend, Zhang Binbin.

Song Lingge believed that Xia Jiaojiao, with her pride, would definitely not tell Zhang Binbin the real reason.

Fang Guanghua and Zhang Binbin wanted to know the reason, and the best way was definitely to come here to eat as well.

Song Lingge could only speculate up to this point; she naturally had no idea what other inside stories there were.

As for why Zhang Binbin was in the bathroom, and why Xia Jiaojiao was still able to have a relationship with him, couldn't she recognize him? Song Lingge had no idea why.

Xia Mingyuan bumped into Song Lingge and the others head-on, feeling very embarrassed.

He looked at Qin Sihai and the other two leaders with a slightly apologetic expression, only glancing at Song Lingge and Qiao Nansheng out of the corner of his eye.

Very good, Xia Mingyuan is still rational and doesn't treat them as imaginary enemies. Song Lingge secretly rejoiced.

He just hopes his daughter can inherit a little bit of his rationality.

"Professor Qin, I'm so sorry, it's a great misfortune for our family today..."

"Director Xia, there's no need to say more. You should try to think more positively," Qin Sihai comforted him understandingly.

Xia Mingyuan was also grateful: "I'll head back now. I'm really sorry about today. I'll apologize to you another day."

Today's apology turned out like this, and I doubt anyone will dare to apologize again next time, everyone thought to themselves.

Not long after Xia Mingyuan left, Wan Jianguo returned, his forehead covered in sweat.

It seems this hotel's location isn't very good; if the bathroom breaks down, getting to another one will be quite a hassle.

"Where is Xia Mingyuan?" Wan Jianguo asked.

If he can't even handle something this simple, Wan Jianguo probably won't entrust him with anything, big or small, in the future.

"Director Xia has gone back," a leader replied.

Wan Jianguo couldn't help but spit out his anger. He'd caused all this trouble, and then just dusted himself off and left?

"Professor Qin, you know what a mess this is today..." Wan Jianguo smiled back at Qin Sihai.

Qin Sihai waved his hand: "No one could have predicted what happened today, let's not talk about it anymore. It's come to this point, why don't we call it a day?"

He is the star of today's dinner, so naturally everything revolves around him.

"Okay, I'll give you a ride. Old Li, go and settle the bill."

The leader who was called Lao Li felt frustrated. He was just a supporting character, so how did he end up paying the bill?

No, this definitely needs to be taken back and reimbursed by Xia Mingyuan.

On the way home, Song Lingge was driving.

Qiao Nansheng didn't wipe his face, but still drank a small glass of wine.

Qin Sihai sat in the back seat, observing Song Lingge and Qiao Nansheng through the rearview mirror.

He was still somewhat worried that the two children might seek revenge because of what happened last time.

Once you reach his age, you'll understand that nothing in this world matters except life and death.

Living your own life well is the best revenge against others.

After hesitating for a moment, Qin Sihai said, "That boy seems to be from your school too?"

"Yes, his name is Zhang Binbin, and he's in our class," Song Lingge replied.

She was so open and honest that Qin Sihai didn't know how to continue the conversation.

"Nansheng, didn't you see Zhang Binbin when you went to the restroom?" Song Lingge asked.
