Bab 148: Chapter 148: Swallowing One's Teeth_1

Now, back to Qiao Xiaon'an.

She cheerfully went into a hotpot restaurant called Defuyuan arm in arm with Ye Jiajia.

She, Jiajia, and Weiwei are regulars here. From their college years to their working years, they come at least once a week.

"Two, will it be the red hotpot today, extra spicy?" the waiter asked with a beaming smile.

"The spiciest available." Qiao Xiaon'an smiled brightly at the waiter, hiding her misery from everyone.

She told Jiajia that her husband Amo had gone on a business trip, and she was bored being alone in the big villa.

So she had come to stay with her for a few days.

Jiajia asked why she wasn't going to work.

She lied, saying she was feeling unwell.

Even when she felt awful, she didn't want to tell Jiajia.

In front of friends and family, she didn't want to appear vulnerable or cause them to worry.
