Dongfang Chu looked at her warily. “Don’t tell me you have some thoughts about that guy!”
Nangong Lengyu was amused by her words. “Are you crazy? How could I be interested in him? Even if all the men in the world died, I wouldn’t like him!”
Upon hearing her certainty, Wen Ruoshui joked, “That might not be the case.”
No one could be sure about fate. Wasn’t there a saying that lovers and enemies hated each other?
“I can’t control others, but how can I not control myself?” Nangong Lengyu nearly spat out a mouthful of water. She was still very confident in herself. “You guys don’t know this, but even I find him annoying now.”
“It’s best not to meet someone like him ever again.” Dongfang Chu was still angry when she thought of what had happened in the morning.
Nangong Lengyu thought that this was definitely impossible. She still had to talk to him about breaking off the engagement. It definitely wouldn’t be resolved so easily.
Wen Ruoshui smiled. She could not deny that it was best not to meet him. After all, they had already formed a feud. Huo Ci was not a good person.
However, she had a feeling that Yu’er and Huo Ci were not that simple. An ill-fated relationship was also a kind of fate.
The food at the private restaurant was delicious and exquisite. It was also the restaurant that many rich people in the vicinity chose. When Wen Ruoshi ate, she would eat at the hospital, order takeout, or eat at a restaurant with her colleagues.
She had also heard that this place was delicious. This was her first time here, and it was indeed worthy of its reputation.
Dongfang Chu tore a drumstick for Nangong Lengyu and placed it in her bowl. “Have you thought about what to do about your fiancé?”
Nangong Lengyu nodded and ate happily. Inarticulately, she said, “I’ll look for him in the afternoon and tell him that I’m Nangong Lengyu’s boyfriend. We’re very in love. What’s done is done. If he’s sensible, he should withdraw quickly.”
Dongfang Chu was amused by her. “You’re cooking rice for yourself!”
Nangong Lengyu nodded seriously. “I’m extremely handsome in a male outfit. I’m gorgeous in a female outfit. Why can’t I? If I can split myself, I’ll definitely marry the female version of me in a male outfit.”
Wen Ruoshui smiled lovingly. “Yes, yes, yes. You’re right. You’re the most beautiful and handsome.”
Yu’er had always been so confident. She had never taken a liking to any man in her life. There were countless outstanding men chasing after her, but she had never seen her fall for anyone.
Indeed, no one was as beautiful as her in female clothes.
In her male form, no one was as handsome as her.
It was only natural that she did not like anyone else.
“Will he believe you?” Dongfang Chu was a little worried. “Who exactly is your fiancé? Why are you still hiding him? We’re not laughing at you.”
At the mention of her fiancé, Nangong Lengyu let out a cold laugh. She gritted her teeth and said, “Huo Ci!”
She was not hiding it from them. They were her best friends and shared all their secrets.
She had only found out about it not long ago. Her father had only mentioned it to her during the Lunar New Year. Previously, she had not even known that she had a troublesome fiancé. She had not thought of how to tell them.
“What?”
Wen Ruoshui and Dongfang Chu spoke in unison in shock.
Nangong Lengyu sighed gloomily, feeling hopeless. “It’s Huo Ci. There’s definitely nothing to talk about between us. It’s impossible for me to be involved with him. I have to cancel this marriage.”
Wen Ruoshui’s sixth sense was that things would not end so quickly between her and Huo Ci. However, she had not expected Huo Ci to be her fiancé. It was indeed as she had guessed. Even if the two of them had an ill-fated relationship, it would still be messy.
Yu’er had said that lying to him would not be that simple.
Huo Ci was not a good person, nor was he a gentleman. He was the kind of person who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
Dongfang Chu was about to go crazy from anger. “We have to break off the engagement! How can Uncle Nangong hand you over to a scumbag like Huo Ci?!”
What kind of verbal engagement was this? It was ridiculous for such a person to ruin the rest of his life for such a thing.
What era was this? Did they think they were still living in a feudal society?
“Calm down.” Wen Ruoshui looked at Nangong Lengyu. “Yan Yuanfei already knows your name. If you go to Huo Ci and say that you’re his fiancée’s boyfriend, what if he doesn’t believe you and investigates you?”
Yesterday, she introduced her to Yan Yuanfei and said that her name was Nangong Yu.
“So what if she’s called Nangong Yu? There are many people with the same name and surname in the world, not to mention that there’s a word missing in her name.” Nangong Lengyu felt that Huo Ci would not care about this.
He probably wanted to break off the engagement a long time ago. Who would be willing to be with a stranger he had never seen before and had no feelings for?
“Just in case, if you offend him and he becomes suspicious, he will definitely investigate your background.” Wen Ruoshui was meticulous and thought about it thoroughly. She had to consider unexpected situations.
“Then help me ask Yan Yuanfei not to tell Huo Ci anything about me. If you ask him, make sure he doesn’t know anything.” Nangong Lengyu thought about it and agreed.
If she came to break off the engagement, there would be no more complications. If Huo Ci refused to let go of her because of a name, it would not be worth it. She did not want to be entangled with him.
“Okay.” Wen Ruoshui nodded.
It was very easy to settle Yan Yuanfei’s side. He could also ask make arrangements if Huo Ci investigated Yu’er’s background.
In the meantime, Wen Ruoshui went to the washroom.
As soon as she walked over, the door of a private room beside her opened and a group of men and women walked out. From their clothes, one could tell that they were rich young masters and young ladies.
“Xixi, isn’t that Wen Ruoshui?” A woman in the corridor pointed at Wen Ruoshui’s back.
“Wasn’t she kicked out of your Dongfang Family long ago? Why does she still have the money to eat here?” The other woman’s eyes were filled with disdain.
“After she jinxed her whole family to death, the Wen Family’s assets will all be hers. They don’t lack money,” the woman with exaggerated makeup added sourly.
Wen Ruoshui was a rich lady. Even if she did not work in the Dongfang family, she would not be able to spend all the inheritance her family had left her in her lifetime.
“F*ck, if she wasn’t a jinx, I would have definitely played with her.” A man smoking beside her looked at the woman’s exquisite and soft figure not far away, his eyes full of desire.
Wen Ruoshui was pretty and had a good figure. She was a top-notch woman. The key was that she was rich. However, her life was too tough. He still wanted to live a long life, so he did not dare to provoke her.
“Wait for me.” Dongfang Xi’s eyes were sinister. She threw the bag in her hand to her companions and chased after them in her high heels.
