The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO Chapter 228 - 228 228 Jealousy

228: Chapter 228: Jealousy 228: Chapter 228: Jealousy After much reflection, Xia Wan’er decided to have the Dragon King search for that Jiangnan woman!

Yet by this ti, three years had already passed since the Dragon King’s promise!

Was she still upholding that promise, was she still foolishly waiting?

Xia Wan’er actually held no hope in her heart.

But when she and the Dragon King t that woman with the picturesque brows and eyes, her heart was also deeply touched!

A woman as poetic, beautiful, and flowing as water, waiting painfully by the lake for a lover who broke his promise—despite nurous pursued n, she remained as firm as Qing Zhu, as steadfast as a rock.

Green mountains and clear waters, a beauty waiting for her husband!

It was like a scroll of ink painting unveiling itself, with the air of longing rushing toward her!

“How could you have the heart to betray such a woman?” At that mont, Xia Wan’er was extrely dissatisfied with the Dragon King; he really was no man!

When the woman saw the Dragon King, her eyes shone brilliantly, but as soon as she saw Xia Wan’er by his side, the light in her eyes instantly vanished, replaced by deep sorrow.

After waiting painfully for three years, her lover had brought another woman before her!

What a trendous blow for the girl!

Xia Wan’er, seeing the disappointnt and sadness in the girl’s eyes, couldn’t help but feel a twinge of pain herself, and she took the girl’s hand: “From now on we are close sisters!

We must love each other dearly!”

Under Xia Wan’er’s coercion, the girl finally followed the Dragon King to Yanjing.

What made Xia Wan’er happy was that not long after, the girl gave birth to a lovely baby girl during a rainy day.

Xia Wan’er proposed the na Ting Yu, so the girl was called Liu Tingyu!

Xia Wan’er had thought they could live simply from then on, but unexpectedly, the girl’s family curse dood her to die before thirty!

Looking back now, that must have been why the girl so readily accepted her!

When everyone realized this truth, it was too late.

Only then did they discover that, although they had brought the girl over, they had gradually neglected her.

Now, wanting to make ands, it was all too late!

The girl died, and Xia Wan’er and the Dragon King buried her beside the lake where they had first t and built a villa.

From then on, they lived in the villa, enjoying its companionship to relieve their guilt.

With a sense of guilt, Xia Wan’er wanted to properly compensate Liu Tingyu, but she discovered that on the delicate face of young Tingyu, there was an expression of cold indifference and resistance beyond her years.

In this way, seventeen or eighteen years quickly passed by.

Xia Wan’er picked up a blanket and gently covered Liu Tingyu, a look of worry flashing across her beautiful eyes.

Liu Tingyu was twenty-four now, and if nothing unexpected happened, she had less than six years left!

Over the years, Xia Wan’er had been seeking a way to solve this problem, but no matter how hard she tried, the conclusion she arrived at was an incurable dead end!

Xia Wan’er was not resigned, possibly driven by guilt toward her sister, but more out of her love for Liu Tingyu.

She gritted her teeth and said, “Child, don’t worry, I will break this curse no matter what.

I’ll ensure you live to thirty, live to forty, and stay happy until old age!

I still want to hold your child, hear you call mother, and hear the child call Granny!

I, Xia Wan’er, will definitely make it happen!”

She gently smoothed Liu Tingyu’s forehead hair and kissed her gently on the head before tiptoeing her way out.

In the bedroom, Liu Tingyu still slept soundly, like a sleeping beauty.

After more than two hours of sleep, Liu Tingyu finally rubbed her hair and got up.

Seeing the blanket on her body, a complex expression flashed through her eyes.

“Ting Yu, ti to get up!

Co down for breakfast!” At that mont, Xia Wan’er’s voice ca from downstairs.

Liu Tingyu straightened her clothes and ca downstairs, seeing the busy Xia Wan’er, a faint smile appeared on her face, “Aunt Wan, I haven’t seen you in such a long ti, I’ve missed you!”

Despite saying that, Liu Tingyu made no affectionate gestures.

Xia Wan’er sighed inwardly, but her face didn’t show any signs of disappointnt.

She smiled and said, “Co on, try your Aunt Wan’s cooking.

Even your father has never had the good fortune to taste the als I make!”

Liu Tingyu washed her hands and sat at the table.

The two ate the delicious al before them, with Liu Tingyu occasionally expressing her amazent.

Liu Tingyu and Xia Wan’er sat facing each other, like the most beautiful picture in the world.

Although it was beautiful, there was a lack of warmth, and an excess of formality!

As they ate, Xia Wan’er suddenly asked, “Ting Yu, how is everything at Yan University?

Is everything okay?

Have you thought about what to do after graduation?”

Liu Tingyu’s chopsticks paused for a mont before she replied, “Everything’s pretty good with .

Right now, I am working as an assistant to the president at Chaoyang Biotechnology.

President Yun, Yun Hanrui, is taking good care of .

Don’t worry!”

“I heard…” Xia Wan’er hesitated before saying, “There was a teacher at your school nad Liu Xin; I…”

“Aunt Wan, can we not talk about that person?” Liu Tingyu put down her chopsticks.

“It’s nauseating to talk about such a person when there’s good food in front of us.”

Xia Wan’er let out a faint sigh.

Normally, when daughters face troubles, they would whine and cry to their mothers, but Liu Tingyu would rather bear it all herself than show any weakness in front of her!

What she didn’t know was how much Xia Wan’er wished Liu Tingyu would show her vulnerability just once, whine to her just once?

Her strength made Xia Wan’er feel sowhat sad.

“I heard from your father once, that you’ve got a boyfriend now?” Xia Wan’er steadied herself before asking.

Liu Tingyu’s body stiffened, and she laughed, “Aunt Wan, I’m twenty-four.

Is it really so strange for to have a boyfriend?

When my mom was twenty-four, she had already given birth to !”

Upon ntioning Liu Tingyu’s mother, Xia Wan’er felt sowhat suppressed.

She said softly, “Ting Yu, since you have a boyfriend, why not bring him to et us soti?”

“What?” Liu Tingyu looked up, sowhat surprised.

Xia Wan’er said softly, “After all, I am your Aunt Wan.

I think both your father and I would like to formally et this boy.

After all, he’s going to be with you for life, and we’ll have to et him sooner or later, right?”

“Aunt Wan, you…

you don’t object to having a boyfriend?” Liu Tingyu was a bit hesitant.

“Silly girl!” Xia Wan’er said tenderly, “When did I ever oppose you having a boyfriend?

I am so happy you’ve found your own happiness!”

Liu Tingyu fell silent.

She picked up her chopsticks, took a slice of lotus root and placed it in Aunt Wan’s bowl.

“Aunt Wan, thank you!”

Xia Wan’er felt a mix of shock and pleasure, a bit of sourness but also happiness in her heart.

“We’re family, no need for thanks!”

The idea that her eighteen years of effort could be outvalued by a boy she had never t made Xia Wan’er feel sowhat jealous.
