Capítulo 979: Chapter 584: What’s So Good About n? Isn’t Building a Career Better?
Pingjiang Airport
Except for going through security, boarding the plane, and throughout the entire flight, Ruan ngxi wore sunglasses. The security personnel saw a girl coming over, dressed in a long sun-protective coat with her clothes fluttering and her long hair flowing, and frowned slightly.
Her whole deanor radiated an air of aloofness, wearing sunglasses, exuding a vibe that said ‘strangers keep away’, as if she was saying:
Don’t co near !
This drew quite a few curious glances, as if she were so kind of celebrity.
“Miss, can you please remove your sunglasses?” The security personnel, seeing her appearance, thought she was doing it on purpose, as it’s not uncommon for people to pose deliberately at the airport.
It was only when she removed her sunglasses, revealing a pair of eyes swollen like peach pits, that the security personnel paused, coughed lightly, compared it with her ID, and gestured that she could put them back on.
Before the plane took off, she received a ssage from Tang Wan.
A friend of many years, who didn’t ask too many questions, simply said:
[Have a good rest at ho, when you get back, co to eat at our place, let know when you’ve landed safely.]
Once the plane landed, the scorching sun and a wave of humid heat hit her, and upon hearing the familiar local accent, she almost teared up again.
“Xixi——” The one who ca to pick her up was her father.
After all, he had watched her grow up since she was little, and noticed right away that sothing was wrong, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, the flight was exhausting, let’s get in the car first.”
He just gave his daughter a deep look. Having not slept all night, and having cried a whole night, her voice already carried a hoarse texture. It wasn’t until she got in the car that he turned to look at the person in the passenger seat.
Ruan ngxi still wore her sunglasses. She had just taken out her phone when she heard the car lock activate. But after waiting for several seconds, there was no sign of the car starting.
“Dad? Why aren’t we going, I’m starving.”
“Is it because work isn’t going well? Did your boss give you a hard ti? Or did soone bully you?”
Ruan ngxi gave a half-hearted smile, “Who could possibly bully ?”
“Take off your sunglasses, let have a look.”
Ruan ngxi bit her cheek, knowing she couldn’t escape, and before she could act, her father had already taken it upon himself to remove her sunglasses.
She forced back the bitterness, holding back the tears that almost spilled out.
“What’s going on after all?” The man, holding the sunglasses, his hand’s veins visibly throbbing, stared at her intently, his expression particularly serious.
“I broke up.” Ruan ngxi spoke directly.
Originally thinking it was so grievance at work, he never expected…
Break, breakup?
His fingers suddenly applied pressure, and with a “crack——”, the leg of the sunglasses snapped.
Ruan ngxi was ready to let her emotions out, intending to have a good cry in her dad’s arms, but seeing the broken sunglasses, her pupils shook slightly, “Dad, these sunglasses are expensive.”
“When did you start dating?” he pressed on, his hands reaching for the other intact leg of the sunglasses.
“Actually…”
Ruan ngxi felt it was more unrequited love rather than a breakup, stamring, not knowing how to explain it to her father.
“Speak up! When did this relationship start?”
“Our relationship didn’t even count as dating.”
“Crack——” The other leg of the sunglasses broke too, Ruan ngxi nearly fainted from breathlessness.
Those sunglasses were a brand item, not cheap, oh my dear dad.
“What’s all this, dating or not, what do you an not count as dating!”
The first thought that sprang to his mind was:
Was his daughter played by so jerk?
“Dad, stop asking, let’s just go ho, I’m starving.” Ruan ngxi sighed, “Matters of the heart aren’t sothing you can force.”
“What’s not to like about my daughter, so pretty and with a good job, what’s not to like, who’s the blind brat!” he gritted his teeth, started the car, ready to leave the airport.
“You silly girl, if you’re dating, at least tell , I’ll look out for you.”
“If you want to date, I’ll introduce you to soone. I know plenty of fine young n, way better than that little jerk.”
…
He nagged the whole way, while Ruan ngxi either looked out the window or lowered her head to text Tang Wan, occasionally responding to her father’s speech, in one ear out the other.
Once ho, after her mother learned she had broken up, she didn’t say much, only asked her to eat well and rest well.
The first day back ho, she slept until she lost track of ti, the following days were quite fulfilling and enjoyable. Her dad, seeing how heartbroken she was when she returned to Pingjiang, was very worried about her and would often take her out to social events.

Going out more to lift the mood, making more friends.
