Chapter 2888: Everyone Feels Sorry for Her
No wonder Xiaohan invited her to dinner; people at the hospital have been acting so strange.
They must have known about it long ago, and they’re all pitying her.
Li Mingxi lowered her eyes dismally; the magazine photo stung her eyes!
She tossed the magazine aside, took a deep breath, and started the car to leave.
Xiao Lang finally doesn’t like her anymore; he’s beginning his new life.
She should be happy for him...
Really shouldn’t be sad.
...
Li Mingxi didn’t return to her apartment but went back home instead.
As soon as she walked into the living room, she felt the atmosphere was off.
Her family was all sitting in the living room, and when they saw her return, their expressions were strange.
"You’re back," Grandma Li greeted her lovingly.
Li Mingxi nodded. "Have you eaten?"
Mother Li smiled and said, "Not yet, we’re waiting for you."
During dinner, Grandma Li and Mother Li kept putting food on her plate, treating her especially well. Even her usually quiet father spoke to her gently.
Her family was like this, and Li Mingxi found it overwhelming.
After the meal, she stood up with a smile and said, "I already know about Xiao Lang, you don’t have to worry about me, I’m fine."
With those words, and ignoring their expressions of wanting to speak more, Li Mingxi turned and went upstairs.
Not long after, Jian Yufei called, also worried about her feelings and came to comfort her.
Li Mingxi finally hung up her call and turned off the phone, thinking she wouldn’t answer anyone calling.
After taking a bath, Li Mingxi did a face mask and leaned against the bed to read.
Only when she’s reading does her heart find more peace.
"Knock knock knock——" suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
Li Mingxi looked up, "Come in."
The door opened, and Li Mingchen walked in with a smile.
He sat by the bed and smiled, "Sis, tomorrow a friend of mine is having a birthday party, come with me."
Li Mingxi laughed, "Not taking your nth girlfriend, why bring me?"
"They are not as pretty as you, of course taking you is more prestigious."
"Then why haven’t you brought me before?"
"I was immature before... Come with me tomorrow, will you?"
Li Mingxi understood his intention; he didn’t want her stuck at home, overthinking.

"I’m not going; you know I don’t like attending parties. I’d rather sleep if I have time to go out."
Li Mingchen retorted, "Sleeping is boring! Going out and meeting new friends is beneficial. Many people are going tomorrow, all outstanding, I can introduce some to you."
So he wanted to introduce her to a boyfriend.
Li Mingxi shook her head, "Thank you for your kindness, but I don’t need to meet more friends now. Go on, I’m going to sleep soon."
"Sis..." Li Mingchen was unwilling to give up.
"Get out!" Li Mingxi had no choice but to kick him out.
After driving Li Mingchen away, Li Mingxi couldn’t focus on her book anymore.
She had been trying to calm herself, but now her heart was unsettled again.
Li Mingxi had no choice but to turn off the light and get ready for sleep.
However, it was still early, and she couldn’t fall asleep; so she lay there, thinking randomly for hours before she felt a little sleepy.
...
Since Li Mingxi’s birthday, she hadn’t seen Xiao Lang.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
Although Li Mingxi hadn’t seen Xiao Lang, she had heard rumors about Xiao Lang and Lin Youyou off and on.
Every time Li Mingxi heard news about him, she would face it calmly.
