In her car, tears of humiliation rolled down Zhou Yu's cheeks. She couldn't believe it! How could Jingwei shoot her down in front of so many people? How could he possibly pick that slut over Zhou Yu? Her vision clouded with tears as she drove back home, accelerating heavily.
How dare he… how dare he… how dare he! Who was he to dump her? Her, Zhou Yu, easily one of the most beautiful women in Shanghai!
She slammed her hands against her steering wheel, but that wasn't enough to vent her anger. She honked angrily at other cars on the road, purposely cutting them, but that could not quell the bitterness and anger in her heart.
Even the knowledge that she sent hooligans to destroy that slut's parent's store wasn't enough for her. After how they had humiliated her today, Zhou Yu would settle for nothing less than their complete and utter destruction.
An evil smirk began to bloom on her face as she thought about something else she could do to them. Zhou Yu hurriedly wiped away her tears, now grinning like a maniac.
"Li Xue Ning! I'll destroy all that you hold dear!"
=====
Back at Jingwei's apartment complex, Xue Ning, Jingwei and Wei Yan hurriedly stood to the side, making room for the many cars that were quickly driving through the gate.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEvery driver that was behind the wheel gave the couple a curious look, as though actually looking at them for the first time. Jingwei was used to people staring at him, so he merely cheerfully waved as they slowed down to stare at him.
Meanwhile, Xue Ning felt highly awkward as they gawked at her with impressed faces, as though she was a hero that saved an entire bus full of orphans.
Initially she wanted to get back into their car to avoid the staring, but on second thought, it would be pointless to run back only for Ming Guang to drive her inside anyway, seeing that she was already at the gate.
They could have entered his apartment, but it would be terrible to leave Ming Guang alone after Jingwei had locked him in his car with no way out.
"Hey, how did you escape Ming Guang?" Xue Ning asked curiously as they waited for him to drive in.
"Magic," Jingwei said cheekily.
"Sure, then you'd better hope that Ming Guang 'magically' forgives you for that stunt." Xue Ning scoffed. "I don't think he'll be happy with your actions."
"Oh, he definitely won't be," Wei Yan chimed in. "Senior Ming Guang hates it when people don't listen to his orders and get into trouble."
True enough, when it was Ming Guang's turn to drive through the gate, Jingwei could only give a sheepish laugh in response to the death glare levelled in his direction.
He rolled the window down, taking a deep breath to calm himself down. "Mr Sun, kindly never do that again!"
"Hahahaha…" Jingwei only laughed awkwardly, but gave no promises.
Ming Guang narrowed his eyes. "Mr Sun, will you let me out of your car?"
"Oh right, sure, I forgot about that," Jingwei said as Ming Guang glowered. He hurriedly tapped something on his phone, and now the car was back to being manually controlled. However, Ming Guang continued to glower until the four of them finally arrived back in his apartment.
Before they could enter, Ming Guang and Wei Yan had them wait outside while they quickly did a sweep of his apartment, before determining it to be safe enough for them to enter.
They then stood at attention, guarding the door from inside. Xue Ning and Jingwei watched how they refused to budge and could only think about how it was a bit of an overkill. There was nothing that would kill them in their apartment for now.
"You guys don't need to stand around! Come now, let's put your things in the guest room first," Jingwei said, leading them there.
Oh right. Xue Ning's heart began to beat faster.
She was going to be sharing a room with Jingwei from now on!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Wait! Let me pack my things first," Xue Ning said hastily, running into the room before they could enter. "You guys unpack the Epi-pens first - make sure to put them all around the house!"
"Yes Madam," Ming Guang and Wei Yan replied, and proceeded to do as she asked. Jingwei hid an amused smile - Xue Ning, with her reddening ears, was now taking charge of them as though she was the lady of the household.
He shook his head; technically Xue Ning was the lady of his household, it was within her rights to order them if she wished.
"I can help you! Let me!" Jingwei said, eagerly bounding behind Xue Ning like a delighted golden retriever.
Wei Yan and Ming Guang exchanged glances. Clearly, it was Miss Li who held the reins in this house!
"Nah, I can do it myself," Xue Ning said, waving him off. "Go pay attention to the Epi-pens! That's more important! Shoo! Go!"
She did not need him hovering over her while she was trying to pack and mentally prepare herself for sharing a room with him. Now that they technically had some form of sex, her brain no longer needed to imagine how it would feel. She needed to calm herself down from all the dirty thoughts flooding through it.
So she had to shove him out the door and lock it so she could pack. And as she packed, she realised that he still hadn't told her about Zhou Yu, or about Wu Shang Jing. She vowed to be less distracted by him, and instead, she would focus on eliminating the threats.
Meanwhile, Jingwei stared dumbfoundedly at the closed door.
"Xue Ning? Are you mad at me?" He asked hesitantly, knocking on the door. But Xue Ning only told him to go and pack first.
"Mr Sun? Where do you want to put the Epi-pens?" Wei Yan asked, carrying the huge box with his arms. Jingwei sighed.
Guess his wife didn't need his help moving her things into his room!
