Leng Peini froze.
Yeah.
Ye Xingbei was right.
She disliked Ye Xingbei because Ye Xingbei was too beautiful, and Ye Xingli cared for Ye Xingbei overly much.
Many times, she felt that Ye Xingli treated Ye Xingbei much better than her. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She was jealous, indignant, angry, resentful.
But as Ye Xingbei said, Ye Xingbei already had a wealthy patron, she now belonged to another man, and could not possibly be with Ye Xingli again. Why did she still hate Ye Xingbei to death?
She didnât understand why, but she knew, the person she despised the most was Ye Xingbei.
Every time she saw Ye Xingbei, she would be burned by jealousy, making her internal organs unbearable painful.
If she had Aladdinâs lamp, her first wish would be to make Ye Xingbei disappear from this world in the most miserable way.
She fiercely stared at Ye Xingbei â if she could kill without paying the price, she would have long ago killed this annoying vixen!
Ye Xingbei saw the resentment in her eyes and sneered contemptuously.
There are such unreasonable people in this world.
Whether others were doing well or not, even though it had nothing to do with her, she just couldnât stand to see others doing better than her.
It was truly pitiful and laughable.
Leng Peini was angered by Ye Xingbeiâs calm and composed demeanor, she asked in an angry voice, âYe Xingbei, what are you laughing at?â
What she hated most was Ye Xingbeiâs demeanor.
Despite Ye Xingbeiâs humble origins, despite her being no more than a lost dog, she was never seen in a demeaning, pathetic state, always carrying herself like a princessâcomposed and elegant, making her look petty and narrow-minded.
Every time she stood in front of Ye Xingbei, she lost all her confidence, feeling diminished, as if she were only a servant girl.
Ye Xingbei reigned in her smile, leaned into her ear, and asked softly, âLeng Peini, the chocolate in my handbag was swapped by you, wasnât it?â
Leng Peini was stunned, her pupils constricting abruptly, her body tensing up, she almost screamed, âYe Xingbei, what nonsense are you talking about? How dare you accuse me! I wonât let you off!â
âSo scared, are you feeling guilty?â Ye Xingbei sneered, âLeng Peini, do you think that by secretly replacing the chocolate in my handbag and nobody saw you do it, then nobody will know it was you?â
Leng Peini violently grabbed Ye Xingbeiâs clothing at her chest, her fingertips whitening, her body slightly trembling, âYe Xingbei, I warn you, watch your mouth! If your unfounded guess causes a misunderstanding between Ah Li and me, even as a ghost, I wonât let you be!â
Ye Xingbei lowered her eyes to look at her hand, chuckled softly, âLeng Peini, since you are so anxious about Brother Li and since Brother Li cherishes me the most, rather than enmity, you should be nicer to me to win Brother Liâs favor. I really donât know what youâre thinking, befriending me is the shortcut to gain Brother Liâs affection yet you only want to get rid of me! Leng Peini, such a vicious person like you, doesnât deserve to be my Brother Liâs wife!â
Leng Peini held tight to Ye Xingbeiâs clothing, pushing her against the wall, she glared at her and said, âYe Xingbei, I warn you, donât you dare to blather in front of Ah Li! If you dare to start spreading rumors and disrupt my relationship with Ah Li, even if it costs me my life, I will ruin your reputation and make you suffer a miserable end!â
Ye Xingbei raised an eyebrow, chuckled disdainfully, âLeng Peini, arenât you curious how I knew that you swapped the chocolate in my handbag?â
