Du Ruoxin was suddenly startled, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
"The people outside still don’t know, but he and I have already divorced. We haven’t remarried, at least not until your issues with him have been dealt with. We won’t be remarrying," Lin Xinlan said.
Hearing this, a surge of hope suddenly rose in Du Ruoxin’s eyes, and a trace of joy emerged in her heart.
Shaoze is still single, so does that mean she still has a chance?
Lin Xinlan saw what she was thinking and said:
"That’s right, we both have the opportunity to marry him now. You can compete with me fairly, but I believe Rong Shaoze will not change his heart about me. So you should let go of him sooner rather than later, otherwise the one who gets hurt will be you alone."
"Ha, no need to pretend to be kind here! I won’t give up on him, not even if I die! I will win him back; he belongs to me and will never be yours!" Du Ruoxin immediately ignited with fighting spirit, her words now carrying much more confidence.
Lin Xinlan said indifferently, "Is that so? Well, I can assure you that I won’t lose to you either. Rong Shaoze is mine, always has been!"
"You..." Du Ruoxin was shaken, astonishment flickering in her eyes.
She sneered coldly, "I have never seen a third party be as righteous and brazen as you. You stole him from me, you took my fiancé, you destroyed my happiness. You’re a shameless homewrecker, you wronged me, how dare you speak to me like that? In my eyes, your words are no different from those of a bandit!"
Faced with her insults, Lin Xinlan just smiled lightly.
"You say I’m the third party? May I ask if I destroyed the feelings between you two, or the marriage? Rong Shaoze never loved you, so I didn’t destroy your relationship. You were never married, so I didn’t destroy your marriage. In love, everyone is equal. If you must blame someone, blame him for loving me, not you."
Du Ruoxin was so angry that her face turned white and her body trembled.
When Lin Xinlan arrived, her smile was amicable.
She thought this woman would let her bully and insult her because of guilt.
Only now did she realize how wrong she was, this woman had no guilt toward her whatsoever.
She was more assertive than she had imagined, and even more shameless!
Du Ruoxin suddenly stood up, pointing at her and angrily said:
"You’re the one who did wrong, what right do you have to flaunt in front of me?! If it weren’t for you injuring me, I would have married Shaoze, I would be his wife, you wouldn’t have had a chance! It’s all your fault, you’re the one who injured me, you’re a despicable murderer! I want you to kneel and apologize to me, right now, immediately!"
"I will not kneel and apologize to you," Lin Xinlan said calmly.
"I am not the true culprit who hurt you, you should know who caused your injuries. Strictly speaking, I am also a victim; my life was always peaceful until I accidentally hurt you, I wouldn’t have gone through life and death experiences, and wouldn’t have endured the torment in my soul... It’s impossible to say I am without fault. Your being injured was caused both by me and another woman. I can apologize to you, but I will not kneel. Because you are not just accepting an apology, you are insulting me," she said.
Having said that, she stood up and added, "Miss Du, both Rong Shaoze and I respect you, and we hope that you can see things clearly, to make it easier on yourself."
