She managed to keep her cool, unnoticed by anyone, and thus stood quietly in the corner waiting for Rong Yan, showing no interest in networking with anyone.
Upon seeing Rong Yan, a lively shade of color finally appearing on her fair but unremarkable face, she approached her, “Rong Yan.”
“I was about to call you since you hadn’t arrived, but I was afraid you might be driving, so I didn’t dare.”
Rong Yan reached out to tousle her shoulder-length hair, her beautiful eyes curving into a smile, “I got held up on the way, so I’m a bit late. Haven’t you been waiting too long?”
Qi Yue enjoyed the sisterly aura emanating from her, obediently letting Rong Yan ruffle her hair, and shook her head, “Not at all, I’ve been here eating, and it didn’t seem long before you arrived.”
Rong Yan was just about to say that they could leave after a short while when Rong Weiwei arrived hand in hand with Shi Mufeng, rudely interrupting the conversation, “Sister, I didn’t expect to run into you here.”
Her tone was one of feigned surprise, as if the unpleasant incident in the parking lot earlier had never happened!
Rong Yan really admired her shameless ability, as she turned her head and scanned the two of them with an expressionless face, her cold gaze falling directly on Rong Weiwei, standing firm, she said icily, “Rong Weiwei, I remember warning you to stay away from me. Can’t you understand human speech?”
Rong Weiwei’s face struggled to maintain her smile after being metaphorically slapped, but she managed to restrain herself and forced out, “Sister, I came to apologize. About that advertisement, I really didn’t know they had approached you first, otherwise, I would have told them I wouldn’t take it…”
That was not what she had said in the parking lot.
At the time, she had proudly blocked her way in the parking lot, claiming from a position of superiority that she had intentionally snatched the advertisement.
Now, with others present, she pretended to be unaware beforehand.
Rong Yan stared at her and even laughed, her clear eyes intensifying as she gazed at her, her red lips shimmering, “Rong Weiwei, do you know what I admire about you the most?”
“…” Experience over the past year had taught her not to take up that kind of remark. Rong Weiwei feigned ignorance, pretending she hadn’t heard.
But Rong Yan did not let up, “What I admire about you the most is your ability to act shamelessly as if nothing happened, even after committing the barest of deeds, and to tell lies with your eyes wide open! Tell me, what are you plotting by turning up in front of me again?”
No sooner had she finished speaking than Shi Mufeng could barely contain his anger, intending to pull Rong Weiwei away. But Rong Weiwei, as if stubbornly rooted to the spot, refused to leave even after being blatantly insulted by Rong Yan. Clinging to his arm, she suddenly spoke out, “Sister, Mufeng and I are getting married.”
Shi Mufeng’s brow twitched, his instinct driving him to lower his head to look at her, unclear why she was suddenly spouting nonsense.
Until recently, their families had not explicitly objected to their relationship. But since the defamation case in court, his mother had been opposing their relationship, and recently had even outright demanded that he break up.
Marriage was completely out of the question!
But as a man, he couldn’t bring himself to publicly contradict Rong Weiwei and embarrass her, so he just pressed his lips together, his brow furrowed tight.
Seeing Shi Mufeng’s reaction, Rong Yan’s expression turned into a mocking smile as she looked toward Rong Weiwei, “Oh, is that so? That’s wonderful.”
People like them were indeed a perfect match for each other. Swapping anyone else would just ruin that person’s life. Better that they bind themselves together, causing mutual harm, and by doing so, act as agents of justice.
