The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement
Chapter 176 - 176 The Sick And Weak Girl176 The Sick And Weak Girl
After getting He Miao’s approval, Chen Xiang clapped her hands happily and looked up at her with a smile. “Then, Sister He Miao, you can come over to my house to play next time. I’m bored being alone at home every day.”
“Alright,” she said. He Miao nodded in agreement.
After getting her contact information, Chen Xiang jumped up in joy. She was about to say something when the butler stopped her. “Miss, it’s time to go home and take your medicine. President Chen is still waiting for you at home.”
Chen Xiang immediately lowered her head unhappily. After a long while, she blinked and looked at He Miao pitifully. “Then, sister, I’ll be leaving first. Next time, you must come over to my house to play with me.”
“I will.” He Miao agreed while sending the young lady to the car. She turned around and saw Xia Yan standing not far behind her, looking at her with a gentle gaze.
“Is Chen Xiang’s body in bad condition?” He Miao asked in confusion.
The little girl just now was obviously abnormally thin, which could only be due to the ravages of illness.
Sure enough, Xia Yan nodded with regret and said, “Cancer. The Chen family has tried their best to treat her, but they could only barely keep her alive. It’s basically impossible for her to recover.”
“So her brother named the company after her?” He Miao looked in the direction the car had left. She had a better impression of the CEO of Morning Fragrance company, Chen Zheng.
“That’s right.” Xia Yan nodded and continued, “Speaking of which, you want to set up your own brand. Perhaps Morning Fragrance will become your biggest competitor because this company was built from scratch by Chen Zheng. It was built by him.”
“I’ve heard some of it before, but I don’t know the details. I’m all ears,” He Miao said. “There’s no harm in knowing more about your competitors and your enemies.”
Xia Yan and He Miao walked back to the party venue side by side and said, “Back then, Chen Zheng was just like you. He graduated from the university in the capital from the Fragrances and Perfumes Department. He was the top student in the school and was invited by the leading perfume company in the industry. Unfortunately, his family had an accident at that time.”
He Miao seemed to have thought of something, and she asked tentatively, “A car accident?”
“Yes,” Xia Yan sighed softly and said, “Chen Zheng’s mother drove out with Chen Xiang, but they got into an unfortunate car accident on the way. Their mother died on the spot, and Chen Ziang was taken to the hospital for an examination, only to be diagnosed with cancer. As a result, Chen Zheng rejected the opportunity to stay in the capital and returned here to spend all his savings to treat his sister.”
“However, no matter how much money they spend, no matter how advanced the hospital is, they couldn’t cure her. They could only prolong her suffering.”
Xia Yan smiled wryly and said, “At that time, Chen Zheng was on the verge of going crazy, but he endured it for his sister. He spent all his savings and even agreed to his girlfriend’s decision to break up in order not to drag down others. He then began to sell his family property and focused on treating his sister’s illness.”
He Miao suddenly looked at her as if he had sensed something, and asked in a decidedly casual tone, “What happened after that?”
“After that, Chen Xiang couldn’t stand the constant running around, and she didn’t want to live such a life anymore. She refused to cooperate with the doctor, and she would rather die than let Chen Zheng give up his bright and beautiful future for her. She forced him to live a good life for her.”
At this point, Xia Yan’s eyes turned bloodshot as if she was reminiscing about a sad past. “In order to fulfill her sister’s wish, Chen Zheng sold the antiques at home and saved enough money to set up the Morning Fragrance company. Step by step, it developed to its current state. After the company was established, Chen Xiang’s illness was inexplicably alleviated.
“Maybe a person’s mood can really play a big role in the recovery of an illness.” He Miao looked at Xia Yan with a heavy heart. “Chen Xiang has already accepted her illness. What about you? When will you be able to get over that relationship?”
“You know?” Xia Yan looked at her in disbelief and tears welled up in her eyes. “It’s not that easy to get out of this. I don’t even have the face to see him again.”
“It’s CEO Lu’s decision, right?” He Miao seemed to have seen through everything. She picked up the tissue that the waiter handed to her and stuffed it into Xia Yan’s hand. “Your mother didn’t agree to you two dating and forced you to break up with him.”
“I really hate it!” Xia Yan turned her head away and gritted her teeth to hold back her tears. “But what could I have done? She was my mother and I was still young at that time. I could only listen to her. I still chose to leave him when he was at his most difficult time.”
“I don’t blame you.” He Miao sighed softly. “Actually, you could have gone to him and explained it to him.”
“It’s no use.” Xia Yan shook her head and said, “He already has someone else by his side, and I can only stay in the past. Actually, he’s a really good person. If you have the chance in the future, please help me see if he’s happy.”
“Alright,” she said. “Yes,” He Miao replied in a low voice, but her eyes suddenly stopped when she caught a glimpse of the figure at the door.
“Aiyo, little Xia Yan, why are you crying?” The madams put down the cards in their hands and surrounded them. It was unknown who first saw the man at the door and suddenly shouted in surprise, “President Jing? Why is he here?”
