He Was Still Feeling Pretty Good About Himself
Not only did Ruan Mengmengâs merciless reply shock Gu Xuan, but it made him lose face as well.
He put aside his dignity before he began criticizing. âRuan Mengmeng, I didnât remember you being this opinionated before. At least when I told you the truth, you were still willing to listen.â
A gloomy expression washed over Gu Xuanâs handsome features.
If it was not for Old Master Ruanâs reliance on Ruan Mengmeng, he would not bother trying to coax the wayward and rude little girl.
âPff, the truth?â Ruan Mengmeng could not help but let out a laugh, completely disregarding his feelings.
âI didnât know insulting someone right when you meet them was called the truth. I mean, who are you? Why should I listen to you?â
âRuan Mengmeng, youâre incorrigible. We canât go on the whole day like this,â Gu Xuan said with a distressed look on his face.
Ruan Jiaojiao who was still nestled in her arms finally shed a few tears. âBig Sis, you werenât this way before⊠I know, itâs all my fault. Iâm in the wrong here. If I didnât get together with Big Bro Gu Xuan, you wouldnât have acted this way toward him. I feel really bad when I see you act this wayâŠâ
âYou feel really bad, is it? Alright, break up with Gu Xuan then. Iâll gladly go back with you guys when the two of you break up,â Ruan Mengmeng said uninterestedly.
Ruan Jiaojiao always pretended to look devastated when she was probably overjoyed beneath that mask of hers.
Ruan Jiaojiao was crying her eyes out when Ruan Mengmengâs words almost made her forget she was crying.
âBreak up with Gu Xuan?â
âThat wasnât how the story was supposed to go.â
âThat stupid Ruan Mengmeng. Why does she love Gu Xuan but hate me?â
âIf she heard that Gu Xuan was together with me, she could not help but make a fuss over the whole thing.â
âWhy is sheâŠâ
âBig Sis, IâŠâ Ruan Jiaojiao said anxiously.
âSo whatâs it going to be? Do you agree to do it? Since you guys care so much about me and want me to go back, then break up already⊠Iâll go back when you guys do.â
âRuan Mengmeng, donât you think youâre taking it too far? Jiaojiao has been letting you off the hook because thatâs just the type of kind-hearted person she is. But if you wonât stop testing her limits, Iâll show you what hellish WPA can be for you!â
Suddenly, a figure leaped out from the shadows.
He could not accept the girl that he placed on a pedestal getting bullied by Ruan Mengmeng for one second longer.
âYou again?â Ruan Mengmeng squinted with mockery in her eyes at Ye Feng who jumped out.
âI remembered the same words you spoke to me this morning. Weirdly enough, Iâm doing just fine in WPA. I think Iâll even be on time for school tomorrow.â
âDonât be so cocky, Ruan Mengmeng. This morning was just a coincidence!â Ye Feng said with diminishing confidence.
âAlright, weâll see if thereâs another pleasant surprise waiting tomorrow.â Ruan Mengmeng could not be bothered with spare tires such as him.
âMengmeng-â At that moment, Gu Xuan broke his silence.
His voice was dead serious and his dark prosecuting eyes stared intently at Ruan Mengmeng..
Ruan Mengmeng raised her eyebrows and looked at him.
âMengmeng⊠I didnât think breaking off our engagement would bring such hurt to everyone. Even though you may have been a little headstrong before, you were still able to listen to reason⊠To tell you the truth, my heart hurts seeing you this way.â
Gu Xuan furrowed his eyebrows as his deep dark eyes landed on Ruan Mengmengâs face. From the outside, he looked like an older brother who felt deeply guilty and responsible for his younger sisterâs fall.
He felt good about himself, thinking that Ruan Mengmengâs revolt, rebellion, and everything she did was solely to regain his attention.
Ruan Mengmeng furrowed her eyebrows and suddenly realized how blind she was before.
How did she not realize what a narcissist Gu Xuan was before?
âBarfâŠâ
She almost spewed up last nightâs dinner.
âSenior Gu, if your heart hurts, you should probably see a cardiac specialist and not stand in my way over here. Iâve stated my conditions and itâs all on the both of you right now. So⊠please move, Iâd like to go home.â
âRuan Mengmeng, why are you so stubborn!â Gu Xuan sharply rebuked. He could not wait to get Ruan Mengmeng back.
âWhere do you think youâll go if you leave the Ruan Family? Thereâs no place in the entire S City for you if youâre not the Second Miss of the Ruan Family!â
âBeep beep beep-â
Gu Xuan finished his sentence when three honks of a car horn sounded beyond the crowd.
Cars were not allowed to stop at the entrance of WPA, especially not after school hours.
Even the expensive luxury cars followed the rules of the school which was to stop three hundred meters away from the entrance.
However, a limited edition Maybach was parked right outside the school entrance for quite some time already.
