LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 17
Fooling Around With Men
After replying to the email, Xing Shu closed the recruitment portal that she had been browsing in a good mood. She also ordered supper for herself and opened a bottle of wine. When she came out of the shower, the doorbell rang. Xing Shu thought that it was the food delivery and opened the door while drying her hair. Cheng Xingyang—who was standing outside the door—glanced at Xing Shu’s clothes and a hint of shock flashed across his angry face.
Xing Shu took a step back and tightened the belt of her bathrobe.
Why was Cheng Xingyang here?
Cheng Xingyang looked at Xing Shu—wrapped under the bathrobe—and could not help but frown. “You’re going to open the door in this? Xing Shu, why are you getting so bold?”
Not only did she dare to block him, but she also dared to resign? Who did she think she was?
“Xing Shu, even if I don’t acknowledge you as my fiancée, there’s no need for you to threaten me with resignation.” Cheng Xingyang suddenly saw the hickeys on Xing Shu’s neck. “What is this?” Cheng Xingyang was not a three-year-old child. He only felt his blood boiling. “Xing Shu! Explain it to me!” He had left such hickeys on Xing Linlin’s body countless times, so he naturally knew what the hickeys on Xing Shu’s body represented. He felt proud and complacent that there were hickeys left by him on Xing Linlin’s body, but now that he saw the hickeys on Xing Shu’s body, Cheng Xingyang felt that they were very glaring.
Xing Shu lowered her head to take a look. When she realized what Cheng Xingyang was talking about, she spread her hands frankly. “State your purpose. Otherwise, leave.”
Cheng Xingyang pushed Xing Shu away. “Xing Shu, how dare you. You actually dared to make me a cuckold. You’re finished! When I find that man, I’ll definitely kill him!”
Xing Shu stood by the entrance and watched as Cheng Xingyang walked around haphazardly. He even went behind the curtains and inside the cabinet. She looked at him with mirth. Coincidentally, the food delivery arrived. Xing Shu sat at the dining table and ate. She even poured herself a glass of wine.
Cheng Xingyang searched for a long time but could not find anyone. He was so angry that his chest was about to explode. “Xing Shu! Don’t forget that you’re still engaged to me! You’re indeed as Linlin said—a promiscuous woman who doesn’t know etiquette, integrity, and shame!”
Xing Shu snorted. “Did Xing Linlin teach you what etiquette is while banging you?”
Cheng Xingyang was pierced by Xing Shu’s gaze. In the end, he clenched his jaw and said, “Isn’t it normal for men to fool around? But women can’t. Women who fool around are loose. You’re the young lady of the Xing family after all. Do you know the consequences of fooling around with men?!”
Xing Shu instantly lost her appetite. She did not want to listen to Cheng Xingyang’s disgusting and warped logic anymore, and went straight to the bedroom to change. Cheng Xingyang was still furious when he picked up Xing Linlin’s call. He turned around and saw that Xing Shu had changed and was about to go out. He could not help but frown and say, “Xing Shu, where are you going so late at night? Can’t you have some shame? Are you so desperate for men?!”
Xing Shu said, “Wouldn’t you know if I lack men? Why? You’re allowed to f*ck a prostitute, but I’m not allowed to solicit men?!”
Cheng Xingyang’s eyes narrowed. “Who the f*ck are you calling a prostitute?!” Even at this point, he did not forget to defend Xing Linlin.
Xing Shu suppressed her frustration. Through the reflection in the elevator, she saw the hickeys on her neck. She was so confused by Cheng Xingyang’s anger she actually went out wearing low-collared clothes. However, when she thought about how these hickeys were imprinted by Cheng Lang, she felt an immense sense of satisfaction knowing that she had exacted revenge on Cheng Xingyang. Everyone dismissed her as a harmless kitten, but they did not expect that a harmless kitten would extend its sharp claws one day.
When the elevator arrived, Xing Shu ignored Cheng Xingyang—who was mad as h*ll— and went downstairs to her car. Coincidentally, her good friend—Nie Xi—called. “Xing Shu, are you asleep? Care for a drink?” Nie Xi—who had just returned to the country tonight—was a woman with a rich nightlife.
“You’re here?” Xing Shu started the car and thought that it would be good to go out for a drink. She had wanted to celebrate her promotion at home—but her good mood was ruined by Cheng Xingyang, so she decided to go somewhere else.
“I just got off the plane. How did you deal with that b*tch, Xing Linlin? She actually dared to hook up with Cheng Xingyang behind your back. Did she forget that her schooling was funded by the Xing family? If I were you, I would definitely tear her face apart!” Nie Xi had a fiery temper and said whatever she wanted. When Xing Shu found out two weeks ago that Cheng Xingyang had an affair, she immediately told Nie Xi about it.
Nie Xi had been overseas then. She was so angry that she lambasted over the phone. Nie XI would have dissed the adulterous Cheng Xingyang and Xing Linlin on her WeChat Moments the moment she found out about it if Xing Shu had not dissuaded her.
