Lu Shaoting was so angry that he was almost emmiting smoke from his ears. Xu Liaowen's annoying laughter only made him angrier. Your best friend just experienced a romantic disaster and instead of cheering him up, you laugh at him? Was this how bros were supposed to treat each other?
When Su Ling saw Lu Shaoting flirting with his so called blind date that he didn't like right under her nose, she was so angry that if she knew sorcery, Yan Xue would be dead already. What made her even angrier was that as soon as Yan Xue left, he turned to her and hooked his arm around her shoulder with a smile.
At that instant, she completely forgot about who Lu Shaoting was and landed an extremely painful slap on his handsome cheek.
While Lu Shaoting was nursing his sore cheek, Su Ling was dealing with something even more annoying.
She had just arrived at her apartment block when she met Yan Xue.
Yan Xue was leaning against her flashy red audi and waiting for her. No one needed to say anything before Su Ling knew why she was here. She pursed her lips and pretended not to have seen her, going her way.
"Hmph! You know that I'm waiting for you, don't you Miss Su?"
Su Ling looked like she had just suffered a blow. She held her head high and turned to Yan Xue "Is there something I may help you with, Miss Yan?"
Yan Xue had a bewitching smile on her face as she walked towards Su Ling. She was about the same height as Su Ling but with her thirteen centimetre high heels, she had to lower her gaze a little to look at Su Ling. Under her gaze, Su Ling felt incredibly inferior. Yan Xue said, "Of course. I really need your help with something."
Su Ling bit her lips and tried not to lose her confidence. "It's quite an honor for a wealthy missy like Miss Yan to need my help. I wonder what you need?"
Yan Xue let her words out leisurely. "I wonder if Miss Su knows of the acquaitance between the Yan family and the Lu Enterprises?"
Of course Su Ling knew about it. Was there anyone in the capital who didn't? In fact, Yan Xue was being too humble. They were close friends and Lu Enterprises' number one business patners. Rumour had it that in the past, the Lu and Yan families had tried to make the first miss of the Yan family and Lu Aotian get married, but the children did not like each other. If the second children got married, the friendship would grow even stronger.
"I know about it." Su Ling said.
Yan Xue smiled even wider. If anyone else saw that smile, they would surely fall in love with her. "Then, surely Miss Su has heard about the marriage contract between the Lu and Yan families?"
"Marriage contract?" Su Ling was shocked. Wasn't it just a blind date?
Yan Xue looked down at her. "Oh, it seems like Miss Su is way behind the news. News about powerful families wouldn't benefit you after all." Su Ling caught on the meaning of her words and clenched her fists.
Yan Xue saw her clenched fists and sighed. "I don't mean to be rude, but isn't it true?
Miss Su, the Lu and Yan families do have a marriage contract. If my elder sister married Lu Aotian, the contract would have been honored but since Lu Aotian (as the rumours say) has someone else that he loves, it's up to Shaoting and I to honor it."
She continued while enjoying Su Ling's shocked expression. "I hate to tell you this, but you don't deserve a man like Shaoting. Forget about the marriage contract: the Lu family does not care about backgrounds as long as you are an honest person with a good reputation, but are you?"
Su Ling looked at her curiously. What was she talking about?
Yan Xue walked to her car, took a file and opened it under Su Ling's gaze. Then she started reading out, "Patient name : Su Ling,
Age: Eighteen
B Scan results : No clots, normal thickness of uterus,...should I continue?"
"How dare you!" Su Ling exploded. How dare she obtain her past medical result? It was the file of the B scan she did one month after having an abortion years ago. How did it end up in Yan Xue's hands?
Yan Xue continued, "Do you think the Lu family would accept someone with such a past?
Apart from that, you even tried to sabotage Lu Aotian's wife and got blacklisted by the Golden Designer Awards. Tsk, you are too delusional. Don't you think, Miss Su?"
If Su Ling were to check the file Yan Xue was reading from, she would find that ot contained blank paper. She had just asked someone to investigate Su Ling hurriedly. Where would she find her medical report? She had gathered the facts to make up something.
Yan Xue dropped one more atomic bomb before leaving, "Shaoting is a man who values purity and decency. If he knew that the woman he values, wait, he does not even value you. If he knew that you have such a dirty past, do you think he would ever look at you again?"
Su Ling's tears unknowingly fell. "What do you want?"
Yan Xue smiled like her point had finally been driven home. "It's simple. Stay away from my fiancé."
