âLook in the mirror and youâll know the definition of losing face! Oh wait, you donât even have a face, so thatâs useless,â Han Qiqing retorted coldly.
So she wanted to argue with her, huh? Bring it on!
âYou â â This was Wang Shiyuâs first time being treated so badly, and she was so furious that she wanted to rush up and hit Han Qiqing.
An Zhixin grabbed ahold of her arm hastily and advised, âShiyu! Everyone here is a friend; donât be rash!â
Wang Shiyu flew into a rage and pointed at Han Qiqing. âCanât you tell? This woman thinks weâre too disdainful to be friends with! Yes, weâre poor, and thatâs why sheâs looking down on us! Do you think that youâre great just because youâre rich? Do you think that you can bully other people just because you have money?â
Han Qiqing was amused.
Since when did she bully her? She was the one who was screaming everywhere unmanneredly!
Han Qiqing harrumphed lightly and said, âNot everyone who is rich is great and not everyone who is poor is bad. However, some people are both poor and shameless â and there lies their gravest mistake!â
Wang Shiyu was driven to fury by her words, her face alternating between green and purple. An Zhixinâs face didnât look too good either.
Mu Xiaoxiao tugged on Han Qiqingâs hand and said, âAlright, thatâs enough.â
Whatever the case, Yin Shaojie was the one who had arranged for An Zhixin to stay here, so she could be considered a guest. It would be best that they didnât go overboard.
Of course, she wasnât afraid that Yin Shaojie would be angry, but rather, she felt that they should still be polite to one another.
Han Qiqing nodded at her and said, âJust let me say one last thing.â
She looked towards Wang Shiyu. Wang Shiyu had her battle face on and was glaring at her.
Han Qiqing alluringly smiled and swept a glance at the girls. âDidnât you mention that Yin Shaojie saving her had nothing to do with Xiaoxiao? Let me tell you something then! If it hadnât been for our good-hearted Xiaoxiao who saw how pitiful you were on that night and kindly called up Yin Shaojie to save you, do you think that Yin Shaojieâs arrival would have been so timely? The most important thing is: If our Xiaoxiao utters a single sentence and tells him not to bother with you anymore, take a guess â would you still be standing here?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
An Zhixinâs face paled as she heard these words. Her lips quivered slightly as though she wanted to deny her words.
Wang Shiyu started up her racket again and rebuked angrily, âWho do you think you are? Why should Young Master Jie listen to you? The people who understand Young Master Jie all know that he doesnât listen to anyoneâs orders!â
Even though Wang Shiyu didnât really know Yin Shaojie, she had heard many rumors about him in Erzhong. She knew that Yin Shaojie was an egotistic man who led life like an unopposed king who could do whatever he wanted. Thus, he was openly despotic, never put anyone in his eyes, and could never be controlled by another!
Thus, what right did Mu Xiaoxiao have to think that a sentence from her could change Yin Shaojieâs mind?
It was absurd!
âHa.â Han Qiqing smirked as she wrapped an arm over Mu Xiaoxiaoâs shoulders. âSorry to burst your bubble then. Our Xiaoxiao is the one and only person who can get Yin Shaojie to listen to her. Keen to test it out?â she bragged.
âGame on! Prove it to me then!â Wang Shiyuâs expression showed no fear of Han Qiqing as she lifted her chin in a standoff stance.
Just then, the reached its floor and the doors opened.
The uniformed guard had just finished his rounds on this floor and was about to enter the lift. When he saw who was inside, he quickly put on a smile and greeted, âMiss Mu, Miss Han!â
Wang Shiyu was shocked when she saw how respectful the guard was behaving towards them. Mysteriously, she started to panic a little.
