You Dare Speak To Me That Way?!
Li Shengxia nursed her burning cheek and said with a smile, “I’m just a nobody and I have nothing to do with you. So I hope, Madam, that you can be more courteous to me, or people might say that you’re sharp and unkind.”
“You… You b*tch!”
“That’s enough!” Yin Tangyi interrupted Qiu Haitang coldly, frowning impatiently. The soft lines of his face had hardened distinctly.
Li Shengxia had stated her choice, but he was still unable to stop caring about her!
Qiu Haitang never thought that her son had fallen so far, and said curtly, “Tangyi, can’t you see the truth? She’s a woman who would do anything for money. Stop thinking about her! She’ll only ruin your life!”
Wen Ting’er saw that Yin Tangyi was still struggling with his lingering affection for Li Shengxia, so she put on a kind act. “Shengxia, today’s my engagement banquet with Tangyi. I’m so glad you can come. I believe you’ll wish us well.”
Who knew that Li Shengxia would be so unappreciative? She barked out a cold, sneering laugh. “And why would I wish you well?”
Cracks started to appear in Wen Ting’er’s expression. She was terrified that Li Shengxia would snatch her Yin Tangyi away. “Then what do you want? Are you going to take back what you’ve thrown away? And didn’t you say that you were married? Is it because the guy you married is too ugly, too old, or too horny? Did you think that you’d still be wanted if you came running back?”
“That’s enough!” Yin Tangyi cut Wen Ting’er off.
He did not need others to keep reminding him that he was something Li Shengxia had thrown away!
“What old man? You married an old man?” Yin Tangyi stared at Li Shengxia, his voice shaking.
Wen Ting’er had kept this hidden from him so that he would not feel sorry for Li Shengxia. Immediately, she said, “Tangyi, I’m just shooting my mouth off.”
He just stared at Li Shengxia. She would rather marry some old guy than choose him?
Li Shengxia skipped over his question and answered Wen Ting’er, “I’m not in the habit of wishing strangers well. Plus, what I’ve thrown away, I forget about taking back. Even if you set it in front of me and beg me to take it back, I wouldn’t!”
Yin Tangyi’s face hardened completely. A coldness crept over his gaze, inch by inch.
She had already said she did not want him, but he had clung on stubbornly, waiting for her to change her mind. Hah hah, served him right. He should have given up long ago.
If she did not want him, then he did not want her either!
Li Shengxia turned to Wen Ting’er and added coolly, “As for to whom I’m married to, don’t you worry about that! Just know that mine is a thousand, ten thousand, times better than yours.”
These words kept spinning around in Yin Tangyi’s brain, and he froze stiff.
How could Wen Ting’er stand to hear such insulting words? She replied mockingly, “Heh, what a stubborn liar! What kind of wealthy husband can you snag after abandoning Tangyi? Do you honestly think that I wouldn’t know just how little you’re worth? I’m afraid it’s even possible that your stepmother sold you off to any old fart.”
Wen Ting’er was not wrong in saying this. In fact, Li Shengxia’s stepmother had done exactly that!
Wen Ting’er saw that Li Shengxia had no retort, and continued, “You’re nothing more than a former young miss. Did you think that you’re still one now? Hehe, I’ve yet to meet a man who’s better than my Tangyi. Looks like this is a case of sour grapes.”
