Chapter 34 - The Second Slap
"Ying Yue, I believe you have yet to tell your lawyer husband about your family's situation, your most virtuous stepmother." Xia Xiaoyu smirked, "That's right, with such a terrible family situation, how could you just say it out loud? If not, once I say it out, he would kick you to death, and at that time, you would really want to cry, but no tears will come out."
"Little Yu, don't say anymore." Seeing that Ying Yue's expression was turning uglier and uglier, Sun Yusheng once again pulled Xia Xiaoyu away. He also knew even more, that Ying Yue's greatest taboo was being mentioned about her family.
"Ying Yue, there's nothing left to say." Not only did Xia Xiaoyu not restrain herself, she became even more fierce, and pushed Sun Yusheng away, becoming even more insolent.
Let me tell you, what you hate the most is not your ego, but the fact that you always want to squeeze into a circle that doesn't belong to you. You're from a second-rate family, yet you still dare to fight with me for a husband.
"Little Yu..."
"What did you say?" Ying Yue held the bag tightly in her hand as she questioned.
"I say, you have a useless father and an unreliable vampire stepmother, what qualifications do you have to fight with me for Yucheng, Ying Yue …"
With a "pa" sound, Ying Yue slapped her second face in the hospital.
Last time, he attacked Qiao Anya who had evil intentions.
This time …
"Hubby... Hubby, are you alright? " Xia Xiaoyu looked nervously yet painfully at the same time, at Sun Yusheng who was blocking in front of her.
Ying Yue, on the other hand, looked at her hand in shock. She did not expect that it would be Sun Yusheng who received her slap.
Yes, she did.
However, she was also slapped in her face.
"Ying Yue, you actually dared to hit my husband. I'll fight you to the death."
"Xiao Yu." Sun Yusheng once again pulled Xia Xiaoyu, who wanted to go up and argue with Ying Yue, back to his side, while looking at her with the five fingered handprint on his face.
"Ying Yue, I owe you this slap. I will return it, so I hope that we won't continue to be like this."
"Sun Yusheng, you owe me, you two owe me, but you won't be able to repay me in this life. If I were you two, I would walk in circles whenever I saw you, but you guys always have to challenge me to the limit, and every time you guys have to act this unmanageable.
"Also, if you have the guts to receive this slap on Xia Xiaoyu's face, let me tell you this. If your woman dares to speak in such a manner again, I can guarantee that I won't miss this slap."
"Ying Yue, do you think that I'm afraid of you …"
Ying Yue directly walked out of the hospital after she finished speaking. She could no longer clearly hear what Xia Xiaoyu was saying behind her, but she could clearly feel the pain in her palm.
The man she once loved was now standing in front of another woman, bearing this slap without any regrets.
Ying Yue left very quickly, in a hurry, so fast that she wanted to use this rhythm to erase that memory.
She would rather hate Sun Yusheng than see herself acting in such a weak way.
Also, the feeling of losing, she thought she always won, but today she lost.
Something was not right. Ying Yue suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at the flow of traffic. A person's face appeared in her mind.
Gu Lin.
Yes, she was Gu Lin's wife now, so there was no need to be sad for the other man that betrayed her.
Also, the better for them to go home and see their parents together this afternoon.
Ying Yue arranged her emotions and took a taxi back to her apartment.
In the afternoon, the doorbell rang.
Ying Yue opened the door. Gu Lin, who was still dressed in a suit, appeared in front of her. A gentle light shone from his deep expression.
"Wait a moment." Because she was too nervous, Ying Yue forgot to invite Gu Lin in, who was standing by the door, and rushed into her bedroom.
Gu Lin continued to stand at the door in a very gentlemanly manner. However, his gaze still shifted towards Ying Yue's room. This was the first time he had entered this place.
Even though he didn't walk in completely, even though he was still standing in the doorway.
The most conspicuous thing was that there were two big bookshelves in the living room, which were densely filled with books. In front of the bookshelves was a desk, a notebook, scattered papers and manuscripts, and it was possible to clearly see the changes on them. This was the character of Ying Yue, the pursuit of perfection.
"Alright, I'm ready." After Ying Yue entered, she changed into a pair of black high heels and put on her backpack, completely unaware of the mistake she had just made.
"Let's go." Gu Lin nodded and smiled faintly. In the end, his gaze slipped slightly as he took another look at the room.
The car stopped in front of an old residential area. Ying Yue got out of the car first. While Gu Lin was looking for a parking spot, she bought some fruits from the store at the entrance.
"Do you want to buy something else?" Gu Lin had prepared many gifts, but all of them were rejected by Ying Yue.
"No, that's enough." Ying Yue smiled as she looked at the fruits inside the bag. After all, what they wanted the most was money.
Moreover, he had just given it to him two days ago, so there shouldn't be any problems.
The two of them walked down the shabby stairs. Once, Ying Yue had spent her childhood happily with her mother. Now, this was the place that she least wanted to go to.
When the doorbell rang, his stepmother was busying herself in the kitchen as she impatiently shouted at the girl sitting on the sofa.
"Wen Xi, open the door."
"Mom, didn't you see that I was busy?" Ying Wenxi looked at her makeup in the mirror.
"Is it that difficult for you to open the door? You only know to stay at home every day and not look for a job. You're already in your twenties, and you still want me to raise you …"
The doorbell rang again. Because Ying Wenxi couldn't stand his mother's nagging, he impatiently threw away the makeup mirror in his hands.
"He's here, he's here. Why are you in such a hurry? Really …" Ying Wenxi muttered as he opened the door. Seeing Ying Yue standing in front of the door, the impatience he had just shown was now completely apparent.
"It's you. Why did you want to come home?" Ying Wenxi rolled his eyes as he hugged his arms and leaned against the door in disdain. In the end, his gaze fell on Ying Yue's pair of black high heels.
"Wen Xi, who is it, quickly let people in, what does it matter if you are standing at the door." The stepmother stroked the cauliflower that had just been cooked and walked out with a smile. The moment she saw Ying Yue, the smile instantly disappeared.
"So it's you. What are you doing here? Did you send money here? If that's not the case, then go back. You're not welcome here."
Ying Yue was still standing there without moving. Ying Wenxi gave a cold snort, and spoke in a sour voice, "You're wearing a set of famous clothes, but you only bought this little thing in the end. Ying Yue, what are you showing off for?"
Ying Yue stared at Ying Wenxi's captivating red lips and laughed coldly, "Ying Wenxi, if I were you, I would rush back to wipe that thing off my mouth as soon as possible.
"You …" Ying Wenxi glared at her coldly. Just as the second round of explosions was about to begin, he heard his stepmother cry out in shock.
"You … "You are..."
