Chapter 33

Su Kexin felt as though all the blood in her veins had frozen.

Lin Xiaoru actually knew about her past with Gu Yihan?

“You…” She opened her mouth to ask but Lin Xiaoru interrupted her immediately.

“You want to ask me how I know, right?” Lin Xiaoru’s smile brightened even further. “Han told me himself, of course.”

Su Kexin felt extremely uncomfortable about that.

Did Gu Yihan tell Lin Xiaoru about their past like it was a joke?

“Is that so.” Although Su Kexin felt extremely uncomfortable, Su Kexin did not plan to let Lin Xiaoru see it.

“Huh? You don’t seem too happy, do you? Big Sis.” Lin Xiaoru approached Su Kexin, holding a bottle of wine.

Su Kexin was reaching the limits of her patience, so her expression turned cold. “What are you trying to say, Lin Xiaoru?”

Lin Xiaoru finally wiped the fake smile off her face, her gaze turning dark. “Su Kexin, you know what I’m trying to tell you. I know that you’re working at the same office as Han right now, but I’m warning you, don’t covet that which isn’t yours!”

Looking at the bald-faced threat in Lin Xiaoru’s expression, Su Kexin suddenly found it somewhat amusing.

“Don’t worry.” She held up her hand expressionlessly. “I’m married now, so I’m not at all interested in your fiance.”

Only then did Lin Xiaoru see the ring on Su Kexin's finger. She blinked, but soon she burst out laughing.

"You're married now, Big Sis? Why didn't you tell us sooner?" Once she had a better look at the ring, she laughed even louder. "Looks like Brother-in-law is an honest sort of guy. He must treat you very well, huh?"

In Lin Xiaoru's dictionary, "honest" was a synonym for poor.

Su Kexin did not deny it. She just said calmly, "Does that put your heart at ease?"

"I've always been at ease." Lin Xiaoru returned to her usual innocent look, blinking as she said, "After all, after what happened two years ago… I'm sure Han wouldn't want to get back together with you, even if you asked him to. Am I right?"

Su Kexin's body trembled uncontrollably and she glared at Lin Xiaoru.

Lin Xiaoru laughed even more happily now, and she suddenly approached Su Kexin, her voice abruptly turning soft. "After all, who would accept a woman who's been defiled by a pervy old man?"

Lin Xiaoru's words were like needles poking mercilessly into Su Kexin's heart. Her body shook involuntarily. "That's enough, don't say anymore…"

However, there was no way Lin Xiaoru would listen. She just leaned in even closer, whispering into Su Kexin's ear with laughter in her voice, "Big Sis, does your current husband know that a disgusting pervy old man took your first time two years ago? And… all for ten thousand bucks…"

"That's enough!" Su Kexin finally could not stand it anymore. She stretched out her hands and shoved Lin Xiaoru.

"Ah!"

Lin Xiaoru did not expect Su Kexin to react so violently, and that shove took her by surprise. She fell to the ground and the wine bottle she was holding slipped from her hands as well, falling at Su Kexin's feet.

Crash!

The bottle shattered and the bright red wine drenched Su Kexin's body, the ugly red color like blood.

"Xiaoru!"

Before Su Kexin could react, she suddenly heard a cry and raised her head to see Jiang Ling running toward them in a panic. Lin Haisheng and Gu Yihan followed behind her.

Jiang Ling hurriedly helped Lin Xiaoru up from the ground. By now, Lin Xiaoru was nowhere near as sarcastic and cocky as she had been earlier. She just let her eyes turn red as she stumbled to her feet with her mother’s help, looking absolutely pitiful.

Gu Yihan had also come over to help Lin Xiaoru up. When he saw how messed up she looked and how red her eyes were, there was a flash of anger in his eyes as well. He turned around to face Su Kexin, saying, “What the heck are you doing, Su Kexin?!”

Unlike Lin Xiaoru’s gentleness, Su Kexin looked completely stubborn despite the red wine all over her body. “She kept trying to provoke me, so I accidentally shoved her. Sorry.”
