While chatting with a few close socialites in the garden, Su Ruowan caught sight of Shen Xi walking past. She excused herself from the girls before going after Shen Xi.
Shen Xi leisurely admired the garden as she made her way towards the washroom. She picked up a rock and weighed it in her hand as she let out a bloodthirsty smile.
Su Ruowan froze as she was intimidated by what she saw. Malice and hatred were brewing as she stood still, before deciding to follow Shen Xi.
The bathroom they were heading toward was slightly further away from the centre of celebration and barely any guest would come this way.
Hiding behind the washroom’s door with a stick in his hands, Gu Xiaohan was waiting to ambush Shen Xi.
He did not give a f*ck about playing by the rules and rather be a lesser man if that meant he could give Shen Xi the brat a taste of her own medicine.
Shen Xi squeezed the rock in her hand intently and slowly approached the washroom, eyeing cautiously the door.
Gu Xiaohan had been waiting for this moment. As he heard footsteps nearing, he raised the stick ready to strike the fatal blow.
Shen Xi pushed open the door and seized the stick in his hands before shutting the door behind her. Curling her lips, she let out an evil grin. “Well well, Young Master Gu has a habit of entering the ladies’ room?”
Gu Xiaohan would never have thought he would be discovered. He crankily shouted, “Brat! What are you trying to do?”
“I should be asking you that question.” Shen Xi’s eyes turned cold and murderous. “Young Master Gu, have you not found something to your liking in the feast that you had to come here looking for one?”
“You…” Shen Xi’s eyes gave Gu Xiaohan the creeps, but he could not even put up a fight. Hence, he glared at her as she lifted the rock in her hands. “You… It’s against the law to kill.”
“At least you know what fear is.” Shen Xi pulled him by the collar and shoved him into a stall. “Give me your phone.”
Gu Xiaohan had no clue what she was up to, but by the looks in her eyes and the rock in her hands, she would probably crack his head open if he said no. He reluctantly handed his phone over. “What are you going to do?”
Shen Xi showed him a video that she recorded and outrightly threatened him. “Young Master Gu, be a good boy and close the door. Not a word from you as you remain in there for ten minutes. One second less and the video of you using the ladies’ room will be spread online.”
If only looks could kill, Gu Xiaohan would have already done so but he could only clench his hands into fists and gave his best killer glare.
“I’ll post the video in the count of three.” Shen Xi may be smiling brightly but her cold eyes were merciless and cheerless. “Three…”
Bang.
Gu Xiaohan shut the door to the stall.
Shen Xi chuckled. What a sweetheart. She kicked the door and cautioned him. “Lock it up.”
Gu Xiaohan gnashed his teeth while fuming in rage. He had never been so humiliated and threatened to be locked in the ladies’ room.
How dare Shen Xi mess with him! That brat would never get away with it!
Now that the door was secured, Shen Xi drew her words slowly to give him a warning. “Be a doll or be prepared to see that video online.”
She then walked towards the windowsill and jumped off with agility.
Su Ruowan waited for a while before entering the same washroom. Since she was sure that Shen Xi was the only one here, she checked and nudged on each toilet stall door and wickedly curled her lips when she located the right stall.
