Chapter 69: Thatâs Enough
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xing Shuâs heart skipped a beat. Nie Xi heaved her chest in anger. Old Master Xing had suffered from dementia two years ago. Other than Xing Shu who visited him regularly at the sanatorium, the Xing family did not care at all. But now, Xing Zewu used an old man as an emotional blackmail on Xing Shu. He was really shameless to the core!
Xing Shu looked at Xing Zewu. âYou are using Grandpa to threaten me. Have you forgotten that Grandpa is also your grandfather? Grandpa treats you well, right? Is this how you repay him?â
Xing Shu remembered Old Master Xingâs kindness because when the Xing family wanted to acknowledge Xing Linlin as their goddaughter, it was Old Master Xing who stopped them. He felt that this was unfair to Xing Shu, his biological granddaughter. However, Old Master Xing had long relinquished his power. In addition, his Alzheimerâs was getting worse every year. He did not have any inheritance. Otherwise, he would not have been ignored by the Xing family.
Xing Zewuâs eyes were dark. He looked at Xing Shu with undisguised anger and disgust. âDo you think I want to bring this up before Grandpa? Iâm just reminding you that when the matter blows up, itâs inevitable that someone will blab to him. You know very well how well Grandpa treats you. If anything happens to Grandpa because of you, you wonât be able to rest in peace for the rest of your life.â
Xing Shu could not bear such a huge responsibility. She looked at Xing Linlinâ who was secretly pleased with herselfâand sneered, âIsnât it just a matter of the engagement with Cheng Xingyang? Since he doesnât want to annul the engagement, I wonât take the initiative to mention it. However, I didnât expect Cheng Xingyang to care so much about me. It seems that the side chick is only so-soâshe only managed to hold on to his body but not his heart.
When Xing Linlin heard this, she almost failed to hold on to her mask. Her hand was still holding Xing Zewuâs, and she could not help but pinch him so hard that it hurt. Xing Zewu turned to look at Xing Linlin, thinking that she was afraid of Xing Shu.
Xing Zewu asked, âLinlin?â
Xing Linlin was worried that if she continued to be mocked by Xing Shu, she would inadvertently reveal something that she should not have in front of Xing Zewu. After all, Cheng Xingyangâs unwillingness to annul the engagement was a thorn in her side.
Xing Linlin said, âBrother Xing, donât you have a meeting? Donât be late. Xing Shu is an adult after all. Let her think about it.
Xing Zewu nodded and was warmed by Xing Linlinâs sensibility. He looked at Xing Shu. âI really donât know whoâs the real daughter of the Xing family between you and Linlin. If youâre half as sensible as Linlin, Mom and Dad wonât be embarrassed by you at their age.â
Xing Shu sneered. âThen you have to be glad that Xing Linlin isnât a member of the Xing family. Otherwise, it would be incest if the two of you were together.â Xing Shuâs words disgusted the two ot them. She pulled Nie Xi into the car and buckled her seatbelt. Nie Xi glanced at the rearview mirror and for a moment, she wanted to reverse and smash the front bumper of the car.
Nie Xi said, âXing Linlin is really something. Sheâs scr*wing Cheng Xingyang on one hand and bewitching your brother on the other. Iâm interested to know if there are any other men who have been hoodwinked by that faux näif.â
Xing Shu closed her eyes in lassitude. Her legs were still weak after being ravaged by Cheng Lang the whole of last night. The encounter with Xing Linlin and Xing Zewu further frustrated her. She casually answered Nie Xi, âProbably.â
Nie Xi started the car again. âXing Shu, the weather isnât cold today. Why are you wearing a scarf? It seems like Cheng Lang is very passionate in bed.â
Xing Shuâs face turned red. She knew that she could not hide it from Nie Xi. Nie Xi parked the car in front of Xing Shuâs apartment and reached out to hook the scarf around Xing Shuâs neck with her fingertips, revealing mottled hickeys.
Some were pink, and some had deepened to purple. It was obvious that Cheng Lang was very fond of her neck.
Nie Xi was speechless. Then, she clenched her fist and placed it by Xing Shuâs mouth, mimicking a reporter. âLet me ask on behalf of all females. How does it feel to bang Cheng Lang? Is he a good lay? Does he sound sexy?â
Xing Shu kept leaning back, but Nie Xi pulled her back. âQuick, answer me honestly! Iâm really curious! Do you know what was on my mind when I saw Cheng Lang in the past?â
Xing Shu shook her head. Then, she saw Nie Xi rubbing her chin with a yearning expression. âI thought Cheng Langâs lips are so thin; it must be very sensual to kiss him.â
Unable to bear it any further, Xing Shu pushed Nie Xi away. Then, she opened the car door and got out.. âThatâs enough!â
