Chapter 58: Fake Damsel In Distress
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Why are you already spouting nonsense now? Mr. Chen is advising you like this out of concern and protection for you. How can you be so ungrateful?”
“I know you have a misunderstanding between Brother Yuan and me, but that’s our private matter. You can’t take your anger out on everyone without distinguishing right or wrong… Work is work, and relationships are relationships. I hope you won’t make such a low-level mistake. You’ll only harm yourself. Do you understand?”
If she did not know Xin Xin’s true nature, Xia Wei would really believe her ‘deep love’ and ‘deep understanding’!
Xin Xin did not mention anything about her and An Nan deliberately making things difficult for her and bullying her just now. Instead, she retorted sarcastically, directly portraying Xia Wei as a crazy woman who did not know what was good for her and only knew how to cause trouble without regard for the occasion.
The persona she had set up for herself now was Xia Wei’s former ‘best friend’. She was a perfect girl who was gentle, kind, and considerate of others. She did not mind Xia Wei’s ‘misunderstanding’ of her and Chen Yuan’s innocence’. She was a fake damsel in distress that people would pity.
Xia Wei did not care much about Xin Xin’s accusation. She only thought that it was no wonder that the original Host could not beat this woman. How much hypocrisy and acting skills did this top-notch “fake damsel” need to be performed so perfectly?
Retracting her train of thought, Xia Wei looked at Xin Xin and suddenly smiled strangely. Then, she replied, “I’m fine, but you’re in danger…”
…..
As Xia Wei spoke, Weiwei, who was pretending to be mysterious, paused. Xin Xin did not understand what she meant. After instinctively asking what, Xin Xin immediately reacted. She felt that she should not have answered this woman, because Xia Wei did not hold back anything at all!
“You’re so forgetful at such a young age. Isn’t that dangerous? First, you forgot that Chen Yuan has a girlfriend, and her girlfriend is your ‘acquaintance’. Then, you deliberately approached and flirted with him, and you even said that I ‘misunderstood’ the two of you? What did 1 misunderstand? Don’t you like Chen Yuan? Are your gentleness and consideration in front of him fake? Then you’re really good at acting. I’m ashamed of my inferiority. This year’s Best Actress Award should belong to you, Xin Xin!”
“Oh, right! You’re not just forgetful. You also like your ‘good friend’s’ boyfriend habitually and like to eat leftovers from other people’s bowls…” Xia Wei’s eyes were filled with sarcasm. Her teasing gaze seemed to be able to penetrate one’s skin and flesh. Just a sizing up glance of less than a minute was enough to make Xin Xin almost collapse.
Xia Wei, who had a domineering aura and was full of courage, slowly sat up straight. Her teasing gaze shifted to Chen Yuan, who was beside Xin Xin.
The smile on her lips deepened. She was like a bewitching rose. “Just like Li Xian in university in the past, and the current Chen Yuan, you like to try everything 1 have for a moment. You’re really not picky!”
Xia Wei’s tone at the end of her sentence was light, like a feather that landed on one’s heart. It was extremely frivolous and unrestrained. If not for the sarcasm in her eyes, the few people in the room would have thought that her relationship with Xin Xin was really stronger than gold.
“Xia Wei, you…”
“What about me? Is there anything wrong with what I said? Didn’t you have an affair with Li Xian? Didn’t you seduce Chen Yuan? Why don’t you dare to admit it? You’re just a weirdo with a stinky vanity who likes to conquer men, especially men who belong to other women. You’re despicable! What did Xia Wei do to you? What right do you have to harm her like that…”
After a loud bang beside her, Xia Wei quickly restrained her uncontrollable emotions. She restrained the redness in her eyes and felt that it was not worth it for ‘Xia Wei’.
As for Chen Yuan’s intimidating posture of slamming the table and standing up angrily, it did not scare her at all. Xia Wei had lived for two lifetimes after all. She was naturally not afraid of such a tit-for-tat argument!
“Shut up! That’s enough, Xia Wei! Have you really lost your mind? What did Xin Xin do to you? Why did you insult her so viciously?”
“Listen carefully.. No matter how troublesome you are, it’s impossible between us! Why didn’t 1 see that you were such an eloquent and vicious woman in the past?”
