Chapter 1049: 260: Break Up with the Scumbag! (Nine More)

After the doctor’s examination, it turned out to be a viral cold, nothing serious. A couple of IV saline drips and some medicine would do the trick.

Hearing this, Wu Jinshu and Yan Erju breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side.

After drinking, Shangguan Xi and Wu Chenjun returned home, it was already nearing midnight.

As if knowing that Shangguan Xi would return late tonight, the gates to the Ni Family household were left open.

Just as Wu Chenjun’s car pulled up to the gate, Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui walked out from inside.

“Uncle, Auntie,” Wu Chenjun helped a completely inebriated Shangguan Xi out of the car.

“Is Xiaoxi okay?” Ni Cuihua asked worriedly.

Wu Chenjun, feeling somewhat embarrassed, replied, “She’s fine, just had a bit of beer. I’m sorry, Uncle and Auntie, I didn’t keep an eye on her.”

Shangguan Dehui smiled and said, “It’s okay, Yangyang has already explained the situation to us, Chenjun, thank you for being there for Xiaoxi at this time.”

At times like this, compared to family, Wu Chenjun, who grew up with Shangguan Xi, was more suited to be by her side.

There are things one can’t say in front of family, but there are no such taboos with friends.

Moreover, from a selfish point of view, Shangguan Dehui was very satisfied with this young man he had watched grow up.

Ni Cuihua helped Shangguan Xi into the house.

Shangguan Dehui stayed back to chat with Wu Chenjun for a few moments.

The hangover was truly unpleasant.

When Shangguan Xi woke up, it was already past ten the next morning.

Thinking back to yesterday, it felt like a dream.

When she thought of Zuo Ling again, Shangguan Xi felt not just a tinge of sadness but, more so, anger!

What a scumbag!

She hadn’t expected him to be such a person!

Shangguan Xi freshened up, got dressed, and headed downstairs.

“Good morning, Sister Xiaoxi,” Ni Yang greeted Shangguan Xi with a smile as she sat at the dining table.

“Good morning, Yangyang.” Thinking of yesterday’s events, Shangguan Xi felt something was off, “Yangyang, did you already know about Zuo Ling…”

It couldn’t have been such a coincidence.

Now that she thought about it, there was no reason for Ni Yang to have her buy pear soda out of the blue.

And after she and Wu Chenjun left the mall, Ni Yang didn’t page her either.

Ni Yang didn’t deny it and nodded, “Li Tong is my friend.”

“What?” Shangguan Xi looked at Ni Yang in surprise, unable to react for a moment. What was this situation?

Li Tong was actually Ni Yang’s friend!

Ni Yang recounted the whole story.

She had known for a long time that Zuo Ling was unscrupulous, which is why she had Li Tong test him, never expecting Zuo Ling to actually fall for it.

Hearing this, Shangguan Xi sighed endlessly.

She wasn’t unreasonable; she knew Ni Yang did this for her own good.

She not only did not blame Ni Yang but also wanted to thank her. If it weren’t for Ni Yang, she would still be in the dark about Zuo Ling!

“Yangyang, thank you!”

Ni Yang smiled and said, “What are sisters for? Oh, and Sister Xiaoxi, don’t be mad at Li Tong; she did what she did at my request.”

Shangguan Xi nodded, “Don’t worry, Yangyang, I won’t be mad at Li Tong. I need to thank her too!”

This matter was also greatly helped by Li Tong.

Ni Yang continued, “Sister Xiaoxi, don’t be too upset, a scumbag like Zuo Ling really isn’t worth your sorrow, there might not be lots of toads with two legs in this world, but there are plenty of men with two legs.”

“Right,” Shangguan Xi nodded again, “I understand, I’m not upset.”

Shangguan Xi wasn’t upset about Zuo Ling; she was saddened by the lost three years of youth.

Now, she only regretted not having seen Zuo Ling’s true colors earlier.

Seeing that Shangguan Xi was in good spirits, Ni Yang also let out a sigh of relief.

She had been worried about whether Shangguan Xi would get over this hurdle.

Now, it seemed that Shangguan Xi was much stronger than she had imagined.

“By the way, Sister Xiaoxi, when do you plan on breaking up with Zuo Ling?”

Just then, the voice of the nanny filled the air, “Xiaoxi, you have a phone call.”

Since there were elderly people at home and Ni Cuihua was busy with work, Ni Yang had hired two nannies from outside.

“Who is it?” Shangguan Xi turned and asked.

“It seems to be your boyfriend.” The nanny had been working in the Ni family for more than a month and often received calls from Zuo Ling.

Shangguan Xi walked over and picked up the receiver, “Hello?”

Zuo Ling’s voice came from the other end, “Hello, Xiaoxi, I’m really sorry about yesterday, my mom had another episode so I had to rush to the hospital, but I’m free today, how about we go watch a movie?”

Zuo Ling was very frustrated.

Yesterday, he confessed to Li Tong!

But to his surprise, Li Tong rejected him!

She even said he was a toad lusting after a swan’s flesh.

But it was clearly Li Tong who seduced him first, that wretched woman. If she weren’t the factory manager’s niece, he would definitely not spare another glance at Li Tong!

To think she was something special!

She doesn’t even compare to one ten-thousandth of Shangguan Xi.

Luckily, he hadn’t confessed to Shangguan Xi sooner, otherwise, it would have been all for naught.

Listening to Zuo Ling’s voice, a mocking look surfaced in Shangguan Xi’s eyes. Did this Zuo Ling really think she was still the same naive Shangguan Xi of the past?

How ludicrous!

“Zuo Ling, let’s break up.”

What?

Zuo Ling thought he must be hallucinating.

Was Shangguan Xi breaking up with him?

Shangguan Xi loved him so much, how could she break up with him?

“Xiaoxi, stop joking around; this joke isn’t funny at all.”

Shangguan Xi said seriously, “I’m not joking, Zuo Ling. How could a country girl like me be worthy of you?”

Upon hearing this, a shock went through Zuo Ling.

He knew.

He was finished!

That scene from yesterday must have been seen by Shangguan Xi; otherwise, she wouldn’t have said such a thing.

“Xiaoxi, things are not what you saw; I can explain. It was all Li Tong, that wench. She seduced me first…”

“Beep beep beep…” The busy tone came through from the other end of the phone.

“Ah!” Zuo Ling smashed the phone in anger.

“What’s wrong? Lingling, what happened?” Zuo Ling’s mother rushed out of the room, looking anxious.

“Shangguan Xi broke up with me!”

Upon hearing this, Zuo Ling’s mother rejoiced, “That’s good news! After all, you were ready to break up with her!”

Zuo Ling’s mother had never liked Shangguan Xi anyway.

Zuo Ling said furiously, “But Li Tong didn’t accept me! Li Tong rejected me yesterday!”

“What?” Zuo Ling’s mother exclaimed in surprise, “Li Tong actually rejected you? Didn’t you say Li Tong liked you? What on earth is going on?”

Zuo Ling’s mother was very anxious; she wanted to find Li Tong and ask about the situation personally.

After all, Li Tong was a big catch.

Without Li Tong, how would her son ever become a great factory manager?

After a pause, Zuo Ling’s mother continued, “Lingling, don’t worry. Maybe Li Tong is just testing you. She is, after all, the factory manager’s niece with many responsibilities…”

Zuo Ling sighed, “It’s impossible now; there’s no chance for me and Li Tong…”

Because Li Tong made it quite clear yesterday.

He couldn’t possibly demean himself by pursuing Li Tong.

So, he had to settle for second best and marry Shangguan Xi…

But now, Shangguan Xi had broken up with him too!

Zuo Ling’s mother frowned, “Is it really impossible? Did you offend Li Tong in some way? With someone like Li Tong, who’s such a pampered rich girl, her temper is quite fiery. Why don’t you go and sweet talk her again?”

“It’s no use!” Zuo Ling flung away his mother’s hand, “That bitch Li Tong was just playing me from the start! She never liked me!”

Zuo Ling had never been played like this his whole life!

He felt like a fool!

Zuo Ling’s mother was terrified, “Lingling, don’t get angry, Mom spoke out of turn. It’s her loss for not fancying you. When you make it big in the future, she’ll regret it!”

“Even though there’s no Li Tong, you still have Laibao. In terms of family background, Laibao is certainly not inferior to Li Tong!”

In terms of family background, Chen Laibao was of course not comparable to Li Tong.

But under the current circumstances, Zuo Ling’s mother could only use this to comfort Zuo Ling.

As a mother, she couldn’t bear to see Zuo Ling so heartbroken.

“Enough! Don’t talk anymore! Shut your mouth!” Zuo Ling glared furiously at his mother; he looked petrifying.

Zuo Ling’s mother swallowed hard, afraid to upset her son further, “Okay, okay, Mom won’t talk, Mom won’t talk.”

Ni Family.

Upon learning about Shangguan Xi breaking up with Zuo Ling, Old Lady Shangguan’s spirits lifted considerably.

Finally, they had broken up!

However, Old Lady Shangguan was still somewhat uneasy because Shangguan Xi and Zuo Ling had had a falling-out once before but got back together not long after.

Old Lady Shangguan feared Shangguan Xi might pull a fast one on her again.

“Xiaoxi, you won’t get entangled with that Zuo Ling kid again, will you?”
