Chapter 22
Shut The Door And Bugger Off
Li Shengxia replied nonchalantly, “So what? I’m the one standing here at the end of the day, right?” She intentionally reached out to fiddle with Mo Nianchen’s collar in a flirtatious manner.
Gina was shaking with fury.
She always thought the crown prince was unapproachable, thinking about how she had never even touched his hands before. However, the man who was so far beyond her reach was currently sharing such intimacy with Li Shengxia. How should she, the ‘ex-girlfriend’, supposed to feel about that?
“Li Shengxia, don’t be so pathetic! At least I was once together with him. What about you? You’re always being around him without ever being exclusive. This is why you’re despised by most of the girls! Do you think you could’ve had peace back in school had it not been out of respect for the crown prince? You would’ve been dead long before this!”
A range of emotions moved across Li Shengxia’s face like a storm. She did not know that the other girls disliked her so much. She was suddenly reminded of how they used to ingratiate her so she would help deliver their love letters to the man. As it turned out, this was how they really thought of her.
It did not matter anyway because she did not like those annoying girls either.
What was so great about Mo Nianchen that the girls felt this fatal attraction toward him the way moths flew to a flame? She was constantly being pestered by these girls every single day!
It was the same for Gina, who never once said anything about this when needed her help to bring them closer to Mo Nianchen.
She had always felt a certain kind of disdain toward Gina, even more so now upon seeing how she was getting closer to Yin Tangyi. What frustrated her the most was the fact that Gina had actually gone out with Mo Nianchen!
For reasons unknown to herself, she felt uneasy every time she thought about this! She would not let this perfect opportunity to slip now that Gina had come forward to annoy her again!
At the thought of this, she flashed a cold smile at the other woman. “That’s still better than you! At least I’ve been by his side since the beginning, but you? You’re nothing more than a used rag that’s not even worth a second glance.”
Gina’s face fell instantly. “You…”
“What? You don’t need to care about what tactics I use because what matters is that I’m here by his side. Can you do the same? If not then shut the door and bugger off, thank you very much. Besides, if you don’t want to become a used rag that no one wants to keep, stop picking up things that others throw away!”
Gina had no idea this woman could be so mean!
The crown prince who was in deep sleep could not hear the conversation at all. Otherwise, Gina would have loved for Mo Nianchen to discover Li Shengxia’s true colors!
She could not be impetuous since they were in Mo Nianchen’s home ground, but there was no way she would just receive the insults plainly with no retaliation!
“Well, very well! Li Shengxia, you’ve been putting on a false pretense this whole time but really, you’re just a shameless and calculative woman! How dare you take advantage of the crown prince? He might cut you off once he wakes up!”
Li Shengxia suddenly felt a pang of pain in her chest although she appeared unperturbed. “Well, we shall see if that’s what’s going to happen. Perhaps he’ll adore me more.”
Her words were simple, but her voice hinted of unrivaled confidence.
In fact, Gina had seen how the crown prince indulged in this woman. She initially thought of recording the incident that happened today to send to Mo Nianchen later but Li Shengxia’s words reminded her otherwise.
She would be giving her a helping hand.
Gina was not that foolish!
She would be the one suffering great losses if things went wrong.
The woman was not stupid. She knew the crown prince had always treated Li Shengxia differently from other women!
He had never had any relationship that lasted longer than a week and yet never had he cast Li Shengxia aside since primary school, all the way through high school! Based on this one fact, it was enough to prove that the woman was more than a despicable used rag.
But what was the reason? Gina had sacrificed so much! Even taking the risk to go through multiple cosmetic surgeries and suffering to achieve this beautiful face she has today. Eventually, her determined effort paid off and she secured a chance to be with him…
The end result? Li Shengxia returned to his side once more and she got nothing in the end. She was dumped before she had the chance to touch his hand!
She was dissatisfied!
Li Shengxia finally broke the silence. “Do you get it now? Now shut the door and bugger off! I’m sure you know how poorly the crown prince thinks about you. You’ll be the one who bears the consequences!”
A flurry of emotions moved like a storm across Gina’s face. “You better watch out!” she said coldly.
“Sure, I’ll be waiting.”
Gina bit her lips despite not being bold enough to slam the door shut. Another surge of frustration rocked through her for not even getting the chance to lash out her anger. To suppress her fury, she stomped on the ground outside of the door. Unfortunately, her feet landed on a piece of the shattered wine glass Yin Tangyi had dropped to the ground earlier. Blood began to ooze out beneath her feet immediately!
The pain was hysterical. Celebrities must take good care of their legs as a slight scar could ruin the overall beauty. She had no alternative but to endure the pain and walk out of the room in silence.
Li Shengxia heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing the door shut behind the woman. She had been propping herself up with both arms for such an extended period of time that they began to shake. She was about to stand up but the man suddenly loosened his grip and thus she fell right into his arms, unable to escape.
She must have lost her mind. Why else would she have said something like that?
Gina would not have known.
So what if she was always by Mo Nianchen’s side? So what if she was now his wife? contemporary romance
He would not love her nor would he want her love. The woman knew she would end up in broken pieces once she invested in this relationship. There was no love between the two of them; it was only a test of strength, one where the loser would walk away with nothing left. She could not afford to lose.
Gina held her high heels in one hand as she hobbled after Yin Tangyi. Her face was washed over with displeasure.
Meanwhile, Yin Tangyi was standing outside of the hotel, smoking quietly.
He leaned his back against the cold wall as the harsh September wind harassed his face. The piercing pain was harder to bear than the icy rain of December.
“Young Master Yin,” Gina said as she now hobbled on her high heels. “I’ve hurt my feet. Can you please send me to the hospital?”
Yin Tangyi threw a quick glance at Gina. The woman’s eyes reminded him of Li Shengxia, thus his hand reached out subconsciously intending to caress her face. It was as if she was right there with him, like she never left.
However, the man quickly recollected himself. He opened the door and positioned himself on the driver seat. “Get in,” he said flatly.
Gina finally cheered up a little but just as she was about to get into the passenger seat the door was slammed shut right in her face. The denial of entrance shocked her into silence.
“Get into the back seat,” he said coldly.
