Li Zhiyuan furrowed his eyebrows. He had met many people like him who were nice on the outside but terrible deep down.
Shen Qianshu laughed in anger. Gu Xiaoli made it sound as if Shen Qianshu was the third party who messed up other people’s relations.h.i.+ps. The approach of retreating before advancing was well-used, and it made Shen Qianshu seem like the vicious queen while Gu Xiaoli appeared to be Snow White.
What a joke!
“Gu Xiaoli, don’t seem so sensible. I’m almost moved to tears . The two of you are truly in love, why retreat? I wish the best for both of you. I have broken up with Yuan Hui, so it’s fine. The two of you can get rid of public nuisance for society when together. You guys have to stay loving for life. Don’t cause trouble.” Shen Qianshu hit the nail on the head with this answer, hitting Gu Xiaoli so hard that she almost raged.
“Qianshu, I swear, I will forever…”
“Stop degrading the purpose of promises. Do you know how much of a joke it is when people like you make promises?” Shen Qianshu looked at him coldly and continued. “Yuan Hui, you and I are over. From today, we go our separate ways. Stop pestering me.”
“If you don’t save me, I’ll die…”
“You won’t die. You have a house on the west side of the city. Sell it and repay your debts. You would still have two million left. You won’t die.”
Yuan Hui was startled. He explained hurriedly. “That belongs to my parents, and they can’t sell it. They would first sell me…”
“Then just die.” Shen Qianshu laughed coldly and stared at him. “Get rid of a public nuisance for society.”
Yuan Hui looked at her, feeling slightly infuriated. But upon seeing Li Zhiyuan beside her, he appeared as if he had been cuckolded instantly. “Shen Qianshu, you have such a heart of stone that you would not save a dying man. Is it because you have climbed high? It’s no wonder that you are not in the slightest bit upset when my affair was exposed. Seems like I was already cuckolded long ago.”
Shen Qianshu stared at Yuan Hui, flabbergasted. Li Zhiyuan laughed. The expression in Shen Qianshu’s eyes seemed as if she was showing concern to a mentally disabled child. It was funny.
“What are you laughing at?” Yuan Hui was so embarra.s.sed he became angry.
Li Zhiyuan took a step forward and held Shen Qianshu by her waist. “Yuan Hui, huh? It’s rare that you are so clever. Be a man. You are dumped. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. If I were her, it’d be a miracle to be able to bear with you.”
“You…”
Shen Qianshu facepalmed seeing Yuan Hui’s chest heaving with suppressed rage. Li Zhiyuan looked at him coldly and said, “Stop pestering Qianshu.”
Li Zhiyuan placed his arm around Shen Qianshu and brought her into the car.
Shen Qianshu stayed silent through the entire ride.
Li Zhiyuan looked at her from sideways, confused. Was she naturally so cold? Her boyfriend cheated on her, and she was dumped. The third party was her cla.s.smate. She did not even seem upset in the slightest bit. This puzzled him.
“You’re aren’t upset at all?”
“I was already sad yesterday,” Shen Qianshu said calmly.
“It’s a breakup. You’re only sad for a day?” Li Zhiyuan looked at her and smiled. This little princess broke up and recovered from the sadness so quickly.
He did not think that Shen Qianshu was fickle in love. He thought that it was just because her feelings for Yuan Hui were not deep.
Yeah, like this.
“What else can I do? Wallow in self-pity?” Shen Qianshu propped her head and continued. “My feelings for Yuan Hui were never deep. I’m lucky to be able to see his true colors early. It is something worth celebrating for, not to be upset about.”
“That makes perfect sense.”
There was nothing wrong about that.
“CEO Li, I’m thankful for today.”
“How about you stop calling me CEO Li? It makes me sound old.”
“Prince Li.”
Li Zhiyuan was speechless.
Whatever. At least it sounds better than CEO Li.
