Chapter 944: Someone You Can’t Afford to Offend

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“I understand,” Zhou Cui’an spoke with a mournful tone, “But if you’re going to break up with me now, you should at least let me know the reason! I can’t bear this vague breakup.”

She knew she shouldn’t pry at this moment. Even knowing the reason wouldn’t change the outcome. Yet, she still wanted to know.

Perhaps, a glimmer of hope lingered in her heart. Maybe, after knowing the reason, there would still be a thread of hope.

Seeing Zhou Cui’an’s unwavering demeanor, Huangfu Shaohua couldn’t help but furrow his brow. After some thought, he spoke, “I’m getting married soon, so it’s time for us to part ways.”

Hearing Huangfu Shaohua’s words, Zhou Cui’an felt as if lightning had struck her. She hadn’t expected such a reason. She already knew about Huangfu Shaohua’s fiancée. At that time, she even thought she could outshine her and take her place.

But she never expected Huangfu Shaohua to break up with her for that woman.

Suddenly, as if realizing something, Zhou Cui’an looked up abruptly at Huangfu Shaohua and said, “Shaohua, let’s not break up, okay? Even if you’re getting married, we can still be together! I don’t mind. And I don’t need any status. Just let me stay by your side.”

The school had already given her a major demerit. Most likely, she wouldn’t be able to clear it before graduation. In other words, this punishment would haunt her for life.

By then, even if she graduated from Capital University, she wouldn’t land a good job. Her future was already doomed to mediocrity.

But, if she was with Huangfu Shaohua, things would be different. Even if she was just his lover, she could live comfortably. Moreover, with Huangfu Shaohua’s connections, she might even find a job at Huangye Group. Even if it was just an entry-level position, it was better than working in an ordinary company.

“Zhou Cui’an, what nonsense are you talking about?” Huangfu Shaohua remained unmoved. “Do you think that just because you’re willing to be my lover, I’m obliged to keep you by my side? Let me tell you, there are plenty of women who would be my lover. Each of them is stronger than you!”

With these words, Zhou Cui’an’s hopes were shattered.

Zhou Cui’an’s face turned grim, but she still wasn’t ready to give up. “Shaohua, I refuse to believe that you feel nothing for me. Remember, we’ve had many happy days together.”

“Zhou Cui’an, don’t overestimate yourself.” Huangfu Shaohua sneered. “Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to stay by my side? And besides…”

At this point, Huangfu Shaohua’s tone turned even more mocking. “I’m not a fool. I know what you’re after. You want to stay by my side because you can’t bear to lose this comfortable life. Zhou Cui’an, don’t be too greedy. This one million is already generous enough for you.”

Zhou Cui’an turned pale, feeling the embarrassment of her intentions being exposed.

But evidently, Huangfu Shaohua remained unimpressed.

Glancing at Zhou Cui’an, Huangfu Shaohua continued. “I’ll pay off your credit card until today. Any expenses after that are your responsibility. You’ll have to foot the bill yourself.”

With that, he stood up, ready to leave.

But before he departed, he issued a final warning. “Zhou Cui’an, considering our past acquaintance, let me give you a piece of advice. Some people are beyond your reach. Take care of yourself!”

And with that, he turned to leave.

Hearing his words, Zhou Cui’an was taken aback. She didn’t even notice the check on the table. Stepping forward, she grabbed Huangfu Shaohua’s hand. “Wait, don’t go.”

Huangfu Shaohua, who had intended to leave, was suddenly stopped in his tracks. Irritation flickered in his eyes as he looked at Zhou Cui’an. “Zhou Cui’an, have you finished? Can’t you understand human speech?”

“Shaohua, what did you mean?” Zhou Cui’an asked anxiously. “When you mentioned someone you can’t afford to offend, were you referring to Ye Leng’an? Who is she?”

For some reason, Ye Leng’an was the first person she thought of after hearing Huangfu Shaohua’s words.

It could be said that her current predicament was all because she had offended Ye Leng’an.

“Zhou Cui’an, stop causing a scene,” Huangfu Shaohua snapped, shaking off her hand. “We have nothing to do with each other anymore. Stop making a fuss.

“Shaohua, are you breaking up with me because of Ye Leng’an?” Zhou Cui’an stared at Huangfu Shaohua, hoping to find an answer in his expression. “Are you in a hurry to break up with me because I offended Ye Leng’an?”

“Zhou Cui’an, I’m warning you. You should stop now,” Huangfu Shaohua warned. “I’m willing to part amicably with you now because we had a good relationship before. If you continue causing trouble, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

With that, he pushed past Zhou Cui’an and swiftly left the café.

Left standing in place, Zhou Cui’an was stunned. Although she didn’t receive a clear answer, she was convinced that Huangfu Shaohua was rushing to break up with her because he feared offending Ye Leng’an. Otherwise, even if Huangfu Shaohua got married, she could still be by his side.

“Ye Leng’an, it’s you again. Why do you always have to sabotage my happiness?” Zhou Cui’an muttered with a ferocious expression. “I finally met such a good man. Why do you have to ruin everything for me?”

If Ye Leng’an hadn’t insisted on digging deeper, none of this would have happened.

Thinking of this, Zhou Cui’an’s hatred for Ye Leng’an deepened. At this moment, she even harbored thoughts of killing Ye Leng’an.

The people in the coffee shop were shocked by Zhou Cui’an’s ferocious expression.

Even the waiter approached, asking if she needed assistance.
