Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Cheng Fanjing did not expose the fact that Lin Shanchu had deliberately stepped on that woman. Instead, she condescendingly advised her to be sensible and not cause trouble.
In this way, Cheng Fanjing would look magnanimous and reasonable, but it would also show that Lin Shanchu was abusing her power to bully someone.
Abusing her power to bully someone?
Why not?
Lin Shanchu slowly reached out to caress the waist of the gown and stood up slowly. Her cat-like eyes were filled with a smile.
“Since you know that the Yun family is backing me up, why did you still want to provoke me?”
She slowly moved her wrists as her gentle voice was full of distress.
Cheng Fanjing’s heart skipped a beat. She did not think of causing trouble for Lin Shanchu today, but when she saw Lin Shanchu sitting there calmly, she felt that she was an eyesore.
Therefore, Cheng Fanjing acquiesced when the woman who tried to suck up to her said that she would teach Lin Shanchu a lesson on her behalf.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that this was an unwise decision.
It was wise that she tacitly allowed the woman to teach Lin Shanchu a lesson, but that it was unwise for her to take the initiative to deal with Lin Shanchu.
Cheng Fanjing forced a fake smile.
“I still have something to do, so…”
Smack!
The sound of a slap and Cheng Fanjing’s voice rang out at the same time.
Half of Cheng Fanjing’s face immediately turned red.
She was stunned by Lin Shanchu’s slap. She stood there with her head tilted, unable to come to her senses for a long time.
Lin Shanchu slowly retracted her hand and blew on it gently.
Even though she had moved her wrist, the strength she exerted was so great that her palm still hurt a little.
The surrounding people were shocked by this slap. No one dared to make a sound.
That person was Cheng Fanjing.
She was Cheng Fanjing, the most favored granddaughter among the Cheng family’s grandchildren and the one who was flattered wherever she went.
Lin Shanchu actually dared to hit her.
Moreover, she hit her too hard.
“You can go to the Yun family to seek justice for you,” Lin Shanchu said to Cheng Fanjing as she retracted her hand.
Cheng Fanjing slowly turned around and her face was full of hatred.
Lin Shanchu laughed.
Her eyes smiled radiantly.
“Of course, you can also go to Huo Xunzhou to seek justice for you. Although he’s my boyfriend who took me to meet his parent, didn’t he also dine and attend the cocktail party with you?
“You two have such a close relationship. He will help you for sure. What do you think?”
Cheng Fanjing used to despise Huo Xunzhou.
After Huo Xunzhou’s leg recovered, she started to have designs on Huo Xunzhou openly and secretly.
It was normal for Cheng Fanjing to have designs on Huo Xunzhou.
After all, Huo Xunzhou was handsome and considerate. Moreover, he was generous enough to give her shares and a roomful of diamond jewelry.
However, if Cheng Fanjing wanted to have designs on Huo Xunzhou, she could just snatch him away.
As long as Cheng Fanjing had the ability, she could even kidnap or rape him. If Cheng Fanjing really got her hands on him, Lin Shanchu would have to look at her in a new light.
Cheng Fanjing should never have provoked her while having designs on Huo Xunzhou.
It was fine if Cheng Fanjing wanted to snatch her man. However, she could not bear the grievance if Cheng Fanjing wanted to suppress her.
Huo Xunzhou and Cheng Fanjing’s dinner date was not a secret. It had long been spread in the circle.
Initially, everyone was just here to watch the drama unfold.
They all wanted to know if Huo Xunzhou, who had once confessed his love to Lin Shanchu in a high-profile manner, would dump her and choose Cheng Fanjing, who had a better family background, after his legs recovered.
Even though the two of them had gone on a dinner date, they never publicly announced that they were in an intimate relationship. As for Lin Shanchu, Huo Xunzhou never said that he wanted to break up with her.
Cheng Fanjing also became embarrassed because of this.
As long as Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu had not announced their breakup, they were still officially a couple. What was the point of her becoming a third wheel?
It was morally unjustifiable.
From any angle, Cheng Fanjing was at a disadvantage.
At first, everyone thought that Lin Shanchu was bossy, but when she mentioned Huo Xunzhou, everyone felt that there was nothing wrong with her slapping Cheng Fanjing.
However, no one dared to laugh at Cheng Fanjing because of her family background. They all turned around and pretended to do their own things.
It was natural that Cheng Fanjing could think of this.
On such an occasion, she could not just retaliate and fight with Lin Shanchu. It would be too unsightly to fight in public and embarrass the Cheng family.
However, she would be aggrieved if she let Lin Shanchu off the hook.
No matter what, she had to think of a way to get back at Lin Shanchu.
“What do you mean?” Cheng Fanjing looked up at Lin Shanchu and her low voice was unusually clear in the quiet lounge. “Lin Shanchu, let me tell you. There’s nothing going on between Huo Xunzhou and me. If you don’t believe me, I’ll swear to God!”
Cheng Fanjing’s expression was firm and serious when she spoke, but there was a trace of grievance in her eyes.
She felt wronged by Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu Imew exactly what she was thinking.
Cheng Fanjing was wary of her identity as the daughter of the Cheng family and would not fight with her on such an occasion. Therefore, she could only find a breakthrough in the affair between her and Huo Xunzhou.
Although she did try to be a homewrecker, she wanted to pull herself out of this matter without admitting it.
Her idea was right, but Lin Shanchu would never let her have her way.
“This is between us. Why are you dragging Huo Xunzhou into this? Before I arrived in Capital City, you already started hiring Internet trolls to slander that
I wasn’t worthy of Huo Chaosheng, didn’t you?”
Lin Shanchu was pleased to see Cheng Fanjing’s sudden change of expression. Then, she continued, “Go court whomever you like. Why did you have to resort to such petty tricks? What’s the point of a woman making things difficult for another woman? Am I right?”
There were quiet discussions around them.
“Cheng Fanjing did such a thing?”
“Does she like Huo Chaosheng or Huo Xunzhou?”
“She usually looks noble and magnanimous, but I really can’t tell that she’s a two-timer…”
“She really deserve this slap.”
Lin Shanchu was a lunatic!
She had the audacity to talk about this in public!
Cheng Fanjing clenched her fists and shouted, “Lin Shanchu, stop slandering me!”
Lin Shanchu did not retort her. Instead, she said calmly, “Whether it is a slander or not, let’s check out the trending list tomorrow.”
Cheng Fanjing’s face turned pale in an instant.
This crazy woman, Lin Shanchu, dared to say such things in public. She must have had a hold over her.
However, that should not be the case. She had taken care of it.
Cheng Fanjing’s guilty expression was too obvious. Everyone looked at each other without saying anything, but they were all convinced that Lin Shanchu was telling the truth.
Abusing one’s power to bully someone was not something new in this circle. It was even very common.
However, it was not a dignified deed. If it was brought to the table, Cheng Fanjing would be the one to lose her face.
Cheng Fanjing was so flustered that she became tongue-tied. Then, she quickly thought of a countermeasure in her mind..
