218 A Slap in the Face
“Oh? Are you talking about Xiang Cheng and his gang of scoundrels at the Grand Jett Hotel tonight?” a faint voice drifted out from Shen Xi’s mouth.
Jiang Xue, who had been silent all this time, immediately asked Shen Xi alarmedly when she heard the hotel’s name. “How did you know?”
Jiang Xue had hinted that the Xiang Group’s young master had asked her out, but she didn’t even tell Liu Cheng where exactly they were going to meet.
After all, there were so many people who wanted to climb up the social ladder, and it was hard to guarantee that there wouldn’t be any shameless people who would directly rush to Xiang Cheng and offer themselves to him.
Jiang Xue’s eyes were fixed on Shen Xi, wondering how she could have known where she and Xiang Cheng were supposed to meet.
Shen Xi looked at Jiang Xue as if she was an idiot. “Sorry, but the Xiang Cheng you speak of also asked me out, and I refused. Still, I didn’t expect that simply being invited as his female companion would make you so ecstatic. After all, it’s a little demeaning to you.”
“Shen Xi, don’t act like Brother Cheng asked you out when it’s you who secretly found out about Brother Cheng’s whereabouts.” Jiang Xue’s face darkened. “You’re too disgusting and shameless. Think for yourself. Are you worthy of Brother Cheng?”
Shen Xi didn’t expect that trash Xiang Cheng to have such a high status in Jiang Xue’s heart. She snorted coldly, took out her phone under everyone’s gaze, and showed the evidence to everyone.
Zhao Yuan immediately stepped forward to read the latest text message word by word. “Shen Xi, I’ll be at Grand Jett Hotel tonight. As long as you’re willing to come, you’ll be the only one by my side.”
Jiang Xue looked at the unfamiliar number and chuckled. “Shen Xi, even if you want to flatter yourself, you don’t have to put on such a self-directed show, right? This number doesn’t belong to brother Cheng.”
Liu Cheng immediately laughed and said to Shen Xi sarcastically, “Shen Xi, you got busted, huh? How embarra.s.sing! Like I said, do you think you’re worthy of him?”
Shen Xi didn’t refute and directly made a call, even putting it on speaker.
While Jiang Xue and the others were waiting to watch a good show, Xiang Cheng’s voice rang in the quiet dormitory, “What’s up? Did you regret rejecting me? Have you thought it through and decided to come find me?”
Xiang Cheng’s voice was extremely lighthearted, and when he thought about how Shen Xi had lowered her head to beg him, he instantly felt his ego grow bigger.
Jiang Xue’s mocking smile suddenly froze. She naturally recognized Xiang Cheng’s voice.
Shen Xi stared at Jiang Xue and was in a good mood. She deliberately said in a coquettish voice, “Don’t you have a date with Jiang Xue? I don’t even need to think it through. There’s no place for someone as unimportant as me.”
Zhao Yuan silently gave Shen Xi a thumbs up. At that moment, Shen Xi looked exactly like a b*tch.
Xiang Cheng, who was on the other end of the phone, had never heard such a jealous-sounding voice from Shen Xi before. He immediately sat up straight and hushed his bros around him.
Xiang Cheng’s voice also softened a lot. Thinking of Shen Xi pouting her little pink mouth and looking unhappy on the other end of the phone, he coaxed in a good mood, “What, are you jealous? Be good. As long as you’re willing to come, no matter who she is, she’s not as important as you. If you weren’t unwilling to come, I wouldn’t have asked her out.”
The atmosphere in the dormitory changed instantly. Jiang Xue was so embarra.s.sed that she almost wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Liu Cheng looked at Jiang Xue, not knowing what to do. She didn’t know what to say, for fear that she would anger Jiang Xue, who was obviously emotionally unstable.
Shen Xi looked at Jiang Xue with antic.i.p.ation, then hung up the phone without replying Xiang Cheng.
Shen Xi had originally wanted to embarra.s.s Jiang Xue hard, and now that she had achieved her goal, she naturally didn’t want to waste her breath on Xiang Cheng.
“Do you know why you have never seen this number before? Because I blacklisted Xiang Cheng, he bought this new number just to contact me. Jiang Xue, he’s just a man I don’t want, and yet you treasure him so. I guess that’s all you amount to.”
Jiang Xue’s eyes turned red from Shen Xi’s provocation. She gritted her teeth and said, “Shen Xi, what are you so proud of? You’re just Brother Cheng’s plaything. When the novelty wears off, you’ll be thrown away. And I will be the one to spend the rest of my life with him.”
