“Alright.” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya nodded.
Guo Yujie had just taken a few steps out when she heard Xia Yixin say mockingly, “How unexpectedly loyal.”
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya ignored her and waved to call the waiter over. She had the teapot refilled with hot tea and placed it right beside her hand.
When the time came, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya did not want to show mercy.
But after Xia Yixin sat down, she did not speak a word and just stared intensely at s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
“Miss Xia,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said very coldly. “What exactly do you want to say to me? If you’re not going to talk, I will have to leave. I have many things to do at work.”
Xia Yixin pursed her lips and said, “There’s nothing really special about you actually. You’re a very normal person.”
“I won’t need to trouble you to comment on that, Miss Xia.” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya was annoyed. “What exactly do you want?”
“I read the news online. Han Zhuoling even revealed his relations.h.i.+p with you,” Xia Yixin said.
“So?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya did not have any patience with Xia Yixin.
“Don’t you mind it at all?” Xia Yixin said. “I know, given Han Zhuoling’s conditions, even if it’s his second marriage, he will still be very attractive. Money, power, and looks, there’s not one that he lacks.”
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya could roughly guess what Xia Yixin wanted to say, so she said, “So, seeing as he’s such a good person, how could you be so dumb as to just let go? It’s all thanks to you that I even stood a chance. Given how principled Zhuoling is as a person, even if he didn’t like you, as long as he’s married to you, even if he met me later on and realized that he liked me, he would still not have betrayed you.”
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya laughed mockingly and said, “He’s such a good man. Just this point alone is enough to make one cherish him. Now that you have given me such a chance, what is there for me to mind? Speaking of it, I have to thank you for this.”
“You!” Xia Yixin was indeed enraged by s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
She really did give her a chance!
But hearing it from s.h.i.+ Xiaoya really made her insufferably vexed and upset.
“Gloat all you want. There will be a time when you won’t be able to gloat,” Xia Yixin said coldly.
“I still don’t understand why you came to look for me today,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said. She used the tips of her fingers to test the teacup. It was really hot, which made her feel a.s.sured.
“What exactly do you want to say to me? If you just came to tell me all these pointless and meaningless things, I don’t have time to keep you company.” As s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said that, she prepared to stand up.
“Don’t you mind at all?” Xia Yixin said. “He was my husband once, and we had been so intimate before. All the intimate things he did with you, he did them with me before.”
“So?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya tilted her head slightly and said, “I still don’t get it. What is it you want to say? All these things, do you think I don’t know about it? Was your marriage just one where both of you chatted under the covers? If it was, then Zhuoling would have long discovered that you’d betrayed him and that the son was not his. He would not have been insulted and cheated on by you.
“Since I accept him, like him, and have fallen in love with him, then I have also accepted everything in his past. Without him mentioning it specifically, and much less without you mentioning it, who would not have thought of these things?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya thought it was really such a joke.
“He once had a failed marriage, but this doesn’t mean he doesn’t have the right to pursue a new relations.h.i.+p. I accept the fact that he had been married once, and I naturally thought of all these things you said. But so what?
“I really don’t mind. It’s clearly your fault, so why should I blame it on him? This is not fair to him,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said.
