Chapter 1062: Supposed to be a Woman’s Best Time

“Tell her to come in.” There were some things she wanted to ask Xia Xiaoman.

The secretary led Xia Xiaoman inside. Xia Xiaoman’s expression was a little timid and reserved. Her eyes met Ning Shu’s gaze, then she quickly lowered her head.

Ning Shu saw that Xia Xiaoman’s eyes were bruised. It was obviously Chu Xiaoran’s doing.

“Have a seat,” said Ning Shu mildly. Xia Xiaoman timidly sat down on the sofa.

Ning Shu then asked, “Do you want to drink anything?”

“I’m fine, it’s ok.” Xia Xiaoman hastily waved her hands dismissively. She looked really flustered.

The cruelty of life had ruined Xia Xiaoman until she became very timid and lowly.

Ning Shu saw that her hands were very rough and there were small injuries visible. On her feet were very cheap flats. In the past, though Xia Xiaoman was simple, she was still very pretty when she cleaned herself up. Whenever she headed out, she never left her heels behind.

However, the heavy pressure of life made it so that Xia Xiaoman didn’t have the money nor the time to clean herself up. Once even survival was a question, living on became what was most important.

Ning Shu looked at Xia Xiaoman. Her skin had become rough and darker than before, and her lips were pale and colorless. These were signs of anemia and malnutrition.

There was a dark air hovering around her. Xia Xiaoman’s body was severely overdraft, to the point she might die young.

Ning Shu found it very depressing. Why couldn’t women love themselves more? Why couldn’t they bring themselves to leave a man? Xia Xiaoman’s actions made Ning Shu dislike her a lot, but Xia Xiaoman actually indulged in her own choices.

When Xia Xiaoman saw Ning Shu staring at her, she lowered her head again and gripped the hems of her shirt uneasily. She didn’t even have the courage to look at Ning Shu.

This man was wearing a well-ironed suit. His handsome appearance made her seem even more lowly in comparison. There were all sorts of emotions floating up in her heart, causing her to feel restless.

“Was this worth it?” asked Ning Shu. A woman actually managed to ruin herself to this point?

Xia Xiaoman lifted her head to glance at Ning Shu, then lowered her head again as she said quietly, “Big Brother Wenlang, I can’t go back anymore.”

Because there was no hope, so she didn’t want to waste the energy on even struggling? She’d rather choose to continue like this?

The current Xia Xiaoman wasn’t even thirty yet, but she looked like she was past forty. Her skin was dark and her body was so skinny, her entire body emitted the aura of exhaustion.

This was supposed to be a woman’s best time, the time when they’d walk in beautiful high heels to go shopping and have coffee with their friends.

Xia Xiaoman’s tragic life was completely her own doing. Perhaps she didn’t feel like her life was that tragic. She was with the man she loved and even had a child, so it counted as a complete family.

Ning Shu was originally about to ask for Xu Wenlang if Xia Xiaoman regretted things, but now that seemed clearly pointless.
