709 Targeted by a Poisonous Snake
Shen Hanxing actually dared to call her stupid? The time she meant was only an excuse to chat, but Shen Hanxing had taken it seriously. Shen Sisi’s face contorted in anger. “Sister, don’t joke around.”
“Do I know you very well? Why would I joke with you?” Shen Hanxing chuckled and swirled the glass in her hand. “You know very well what our relationship is like. There’s only the two of us here, so you don’t have to pretend to say that you want to talk to me. It disgusts me.” Shen Hanxing’s gaze swept across Shen Sisi mercilessly, then her lips curved into a sarcastic smile. “Even if you don’t feel disgusted, I do! Don’t disturb me, get lost!”
Shen Hanxing did not give Shen Sisi any face at all. Shen Sisi’s face was pale and the hatred in her eyes was about to burst. Her face darkened, and her voice was no longer pretending to be gentle and calm. Instead, it was mixed with viciousness. “Shen Hanxing, why are you so annoying?!” She wished she could tear Shen Hanxing’s face apart. Every time she thought of her, she hated her to the core and wanted nothing more than to destroy her!
“Same to you.” Seeing that Shen Sisi had stopped pretending, Shen Hanxing smiled and raised her glass elegantly. “If you behave like this, we can still talk.” At least it was not so hypocritical and disgusting.
“Shen Hanxing, do you think you’ve won?” Shen Sisi’s voice was a little sharp, and her pretty face was twisted with hatred. “I’m telling you, it’s not that easy to defeat me! You can only be smug for a while. I will never be inferior to you! I’m the daughter that Daddy loves the most and the pride of the Shen Family!” She was a little agitated and raised her voice. “Don’t even think about surpassing me in this lifetime. I’m the best. Don’t even think about winning me!”
“Shush…” In response to Shen Sisi’s aggressive declaration, Shen Hanxing calmly raised a finger and placed it on her red lips, signaling for her to keep quiet. Shen Sisi’s words did not seem to agitate her at all. Her eyes were calm and her tone was gentle. “Don’t be so agitated. You don’t want to attract others here and make a fool of yourself, do you?”
Shen Sisi choked. She wished she could flip the table in front of her, pull Shen Hanxing’s hair, and tear off her elegant and calm mask. She hoped that Shen Hanxing would be angry and lose her mind, unlike now, when she was so calm and indifferent as if she did not care about anything. She was like a clown.
Shen Sisi clenched her fists tightly. Indeed, she did not dare to make a scene. She knew how important this banquet was and she knew that she had only managed to get in because of someone else’s ability. She could not embarrass herself here. Her image had already fallen to the bottom recently and she could not take any more setbacks.
Shen Sisi bit her lip hard to control her emotions. “Sister, you are right. I just want some time with my Sister. It’s indeed not appropriate to attract other people.” With that, she smiled and sat up straight again. She even tidied her hair and turned back into the fresh and refined little fairy. If it was not for the viciousness in her eyes, her performance would have been perfect. Shen Hanxing could not help but take a few more glances. She was a little surprised. It seemed that Shen Sisi had not come back empty-handed from all the setbacks she had suffered recently. She now understood the situation and quickly controlled her emotions to make adjustments. She was a completely different person from the past when she got angry without thinking.
“I don’t think we have anything to talk about,” Shen Hanxing sneered.
“Why not?” Shen Sisi pretended to be surprised as she smiled and said, “I have a lot of things to tell you, Sister!”
“What if I say I don’t want to hear it?” Shen Hanxing frowned impatiently. “I have ears. I have the right to choose what I want to hear or not, don’t I? If you like this place, you can do as you please.” With that, she stood up and was about to leave, but a tall figure in a white suit was already standing at her exit, blocking her way. The lush vines cut off the light and cast a large shadow. The man stood in the dark, and his facial features were unclear. Only his evil and dangerous eyes were particularly noticeable, like a cold, poisonous snake, coiling on her skin, cold and twining. Goosebumps rose wherever his gaze swept past.
