765 No Longer Feeling Sorry for Her
Shen Hanxing had come to relax today. She was too lazy to do anything in such hot weather, but Lu Shaoyang kept jumping around her as if he had lost his mind, which made her feel irritated. If Lu Shaoyang were still so annoying, she wouldn’t mind teaching him a lesson.
“What’s the point of solving matters with violence?” Lu Shaoyang couldn’t help but step back at the thought of being beaten and embarrassed several times. His eyes fell on Shen Hanxing’s beautiful face. Even though he felt that he had seen through Shen Hanxing’s character, he couldn’t help but feel moved. On impulse, he clenched his fists in anger and said to Ji Yan, “Mr. Ji, if you’re so capable, let’s not rely on your family background. Let’s compete with other abilities!”
It was funny that Lu Shaoyang wanted to compete with Ji Yan. It was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, overestimating its strength. Clearly, he had no understanding of his ability.
Shen Hanxing looked Lu Shaoyang up and down and asked, “What do you have to compare yourself to Mr. Ji?” Would an elephant care about an ant’s provocation? With his family’s support, a rich second generation came to provoke Ji Yan. Who gave him the confidence? Shen Hanxing was amused and angry at the same time. She looked at Lu Shaoyang and said sarcastically, “I didn’t expect you to have such an unusual way of thinking despite your ordinary personality. Who gave you the confidence?”
Lu Shaoyang was so angry that his face turned red. Lu Shaoyang’s feelings toward Shen Hanxing were complicated. He felt he had seen through her and that she was just a vulgar woman. On the other hand, he couldn’t help but like her. He wanted to attract her attention and make her regret it. He loved and hated her at the same time. Because of this, Shen Hanxing’s attitude hurt him even more.
“You don’t dare to compete?” Lu Shaoyang’s eyes were bloodshot. He said coldly, “President Ji, you are a man, so why are you acting like this? Don’t you have the balls?”
“Young Master Lu…” The man who came with Lu Shaoyang couldn’t stand it anymore. He pulled Lu Shaoyang’s arm and tried to calm him down. “We’re all here to play. Why are you so angry? Forget it. Forget it.”
“That’s right. We’re all here to have fun. Don’t ruin it. Let’s go and play too.” Someone agreed.
They tried to smooth things over, but Lu Shaoyang did not appreciate their kindness. Instead, he felt that they were looking down on him. He shook them off with a sullen face and said, “Go away! You guys said to yourself that it’s just for fun. Don’t tell me Mr. Ji can’t afford to lose?”
Why was Lu Shaoyang like a flea she could not get rid of? Shen Hanxing’s expression turned cold.
“There’s no need to break a butterfly on the wheel. Is there a need for Mr. Ji to participate in such a small matter?” Shen Hanxing looked at Lu Shaoyang coldly, then stood before Ji Yan. “It’s not easy for Mr. Ji to get some rest, so don’t bother him with trivial matters. Didn’t you want to compete? I’ll compete with you.” No matter who won or lost, it would be too much of a favor for Lu Shaoyang to let Ji Yan compete with Lu Shaoyang. Even Lu Guo could not be on equal footing in front of Ji Yan, so what right did Lu Shaoyang have to show off? Therefore, she didn’t need to take Lu Shaoyang’s words to heart, nor did she need to respect him.
Lu Shaoyang’s face turned dark. He could no longer maintain his calm expression and tried his best to protect his poor self-esteem. To him, this was a battle to protect his dignity. However, to Shen Hanxing, it was a trivial matter. She could not bear to let Ji Yan participate in the battle. What was even more ridiculous was that when he challenged Ji Yan, his love rival, it was Shen Hanxing confronted him. Ji Yan didn’t need to say or do anything and could enjoy Shen Hanxing’s protection. This difference made Lu Shaoyang’s jealous, and he said frantically, “Alright, don’t regret it!” In any case, he would not be the one to be embarrassed in the end!
Different living environments make everyone different. Perhaps Shen Hanxing was a talented person who constantly surprised people, but some things were destined to be different. She was born in the slums, and her economic conditions had limited her from coming into contact with many interests that burned money. He knew how poor the place was and saw how Shen Hanxing worked hard at various places to make a living. The money she earned in a day was not even enough for a meal. She was just asking for humiliation! This time, he wouldn’t feel bad for her anymore. She asked for it!
Lu Shaoyang thought coldly and even looked at Ji Yan with a slight provocation. “When Mrs. Ji loses face, don’t feel bad, Mr. Ji.”
