After I was reborn, I fell in love with the cold and cruel boss

Xu Xixi's heart skipped a beat, and her smile suddenly became stiff and she wanted to take it back.

However, it was too late. The moment his hand was placed on her waist, the photo had been taken, freezing everything.

After taking the photo, Xu Xixi lowered her gaze and glanced at the hand on her waist. As if it was stained with something dirty, she avoided it and pushed him away violently.

Zhou Jing'an looked at what looked like a little hedgehog with its thorns erect and wary of him, and felt a little bitterness in his heart.

Xu Xixi didn't want to have an argument with Zhou Jing'an on Xiaomu and Qingbao's first birthday today, such a happy and joyful moment, so she forced herself to suppress the small volcano that was about to erupt and stood silently in the corner.

Finally, a group of people gathered together, sang birthday songs to Xiaomu and Qingbao, lit candles, and cut the cake.

It was very lively and did not end until nine o'clock in the evening.

Sheng Hongxi and his wife took Xiaomu and Qingbao back to Rose Manor, while Sheng Xingli continued to stay in the hospital to accompany Tang Yuezhou in his recovery.

Xu Xixi said goodbye to Sheng Xingli with some reluctance. She booked a flight for tomorrow morning and was going back to Beicheng.

"Xing Li, when will you come back to Beicheng?" Xu Xixi's face showed obvious depression and loss.

Sheng Xingli is her best friend and her most trusted friend.

For Xu Xixi, Sheng Xingli is an indispensable role in her life.

But since Sheng Xingli came to Nancheng and gave birth to Xiaomu and Qingbao, she has not returned to Beicheng for more than a year.

The two were once inseparable, but Xu Xixi was naturally not used to facing such a separation.

Thinking of this, Sheng Xingli gently hugged Xu Xixi, and he couldn't help but feel very regretful in his gentle words.

"Brother Ayue's body has not yet returned to a good state. The north and south cities are too far apart. The doctor's advice is to rest and recuperate now, so I plan to wait until his health is better before returning to the north city.

What's more important is..." Sheng Xingli couldn't help but frowned as if remembering something troubling, "Besides, although Huo Chi is dead, there are still many things that have not been dealt with. Brother Ayue has to stay in Nancheng to cooperate.

Investigation by the National Security Bureau and the police.”

Xu Xixi naturally knew that the complexity could not be explained clearly in a few words, so she did not ask any more questions, but said expectantly: "It doesn't matter, you are busy with your work now, I believe we will meet soon."

"Yes."

Hearing Sheng Xingli's firm answer, Xu Xixi breathed a sigh of relief, then lowered her eyes and remained silent for a long time.

Xu Xixi is a person who habitually expresses all her emotions and sorrows on her face. She is simple-minded and can't hide anything. Sheng Xingli knew from the look on her face that she had encountered something difficult for her, so he was cautious.

He made a sound to test: "Xixi, are you... unhappy recently?"

Sheng Xingli hit the nail on the head, and Xu Xixi had no intention of hiding it.

She hummed and said, "It's quite uncomfortable."

"Because of Mr. Zhou's matter?"

Xu Xixi hummed again.

During this period of time, because Sheng Xingli's predicament had made her very anxious, Xu Xixi did not tell Sheng Xingli about her emotional problems.

Looking at Sheng Xingli's confused look, Xu Xixi pretended to be casual and said, "He proposed to me some time ago."

Proposal?
