Rebirth of a Fashionista: This Life Is Soo Last Season

Chapter 143 - Wedding Gift

Sheng Jiaoyang dragged her suitcase out, but she didn't see Zeng Huan's car.

That was strange. From the moment she'd arrived, it didn't take long before she came out again. Why didn't Zeng Huan wait for her?

She called Zeng Huan, and the latter repeatedly apologised to her, saying that something had happened at home.

If that was the case, then Zeng Huan wasn't to blame. Sheng Jiaoyang had to let her take care of her family matters first. When the call ended, she dragged her suitcase and walked further ahead, ready to hail a taxi outside.

The taxi stopped by the roadside and just as Sheng Jiaoyang was about to get in, she felt a flash behind her. She turned around and saw a passer-by running away in a panic.

If you want to take a picture, then take one. Why are you running away? Sheng Jiaoyang withdrew her gaze and got in the taxi.

Not long after, she received a call from Grandfather Yang.

"Grandfather," Sheng Jiaoyang called out.

"Is everything okay on your end?" Grandfather Yang warmly asked.

Sheng Jiaoyang glanced at the driver in front of her and fixed her mask as murmured, "Grandfather, luckily you called!"

"Did Zhining bully you?"

"No." She touched her neck and thought: She'd better not talk about it, lest her grandfather worry about her.

"That's good then. Are you coming over now?"

Sheng Jiaoyang thought about it for a moment, but declined in the end.

"In that case, accompany me to the bank tomorrow. Your mother left you something in the bank vault. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."

"Okay. Grandfather, you should rest early. Good night!"

"I will, you should go to bed early too. Good night!"

After hanging up, Sheng Jiaoyang looked out of the window and fell in a daze.

When she got home, Xu Qing and Li Weiqi weren't back yet. She went straight to her room to wash up and rest.

As she brushed her teeth, she raised her chin in front of the mirror. There were some bruises on her chin and her neck.

Hateful Shen Zhining! Sheng Jiaoyang ground her teeth in anger.

The next day, Sheng Jiaoyang noticed that the bruises had darkened to purple. She cursed Shen Zhining under her breath a few times before fishing out a powder foundation. She then proceeded to cover her bruised chin and neck, but even so, she couldn't hide them completely. Thus, she had no choice but to put on a turtleneck sweater.

"Why are you up so early? It's the weekend, so you don't have classes today, right?!" Xu Qing saw Sheng Jiaoyang all dressed up and asked in surprise.

"No, but I have some business to tend to, so I'm leaving first. You two can enjoy your sweet time together with me out of the way," Sheng Jiaoyang teased on her way out.

Xu Qing blushed.

Sheng Jiaoyang went downstairs and got into the car that had been waiting by the roadside downstairs.

"Grandfather, are we going to the bank now? It's still early, only seven o'clock." Sheng Jiaoyang glanced at her watch.

"No need to rush, let's have breakfast first," Grandfather Yang smilingly replied.

"Oh, okay," Sheng Jiaoyang raised an eyebrow.

Grandfather Yang examined her from top to bottom. Sheng Jiaoyang's current appearance was completely different from what he was used to seeing, but ever since he'd learned that she was Jiaoyang, he found his granddaughter good-looking no matter how many times he looked at her.
