She lazily leaned back, sinking her whole body into the soft sofa. "Hmm, I remember."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jiayuan wanted to leave immediately without saying a word!
Cheng Tingting sneered, "What, want to leave, or can’t wait to be by my sister’s side? That unremarkable fool of a woman?"
"Don’t you dare speak ill of Anning!" Hearing her insulting Jian Anning, Lu Jiayuan couldn’t stand it anymore! In the past, he must have been blind to ever fancy such a heartless, vicious, and selfish woman!
Seeing him finally turn around but still defending Jian Anning, Cheng Tingting was a bit displeased.
Although she no longer felt anything for Lu Jiayuan, seeing the man she rejected continue to pursue the woman she hated—she still felt slightly annoyed.
It was as if something originally belonged to her; even if she discarded it, she refused to let Jian Anning have it.
"What, did I hit a nerve?" Cheng Tingting sneered, lowering her head, idly twirling the wine glass filled with red wine, gazing at her nail-polished fingers. "But what can you do? Even if you chase her now, you’re still my ex. So, next time I see you, how should I address you? Should I call you ’strong-bull’ or ’brother-in-law’?"
When she said "strong-bull," Lu Jiayuan knew immediately it was a playful term from their passionate days, during their X-rated moments!
The meaning was clear—if he dared pursue Jian Anning, she dared to expose his shortcomings in front of Jian Anning! She was the one who seduced him, but he had to be willing to take the bait! If he hadn’t been unable to resist climbing into her bed, they wouldn’t have been together!
"You!—" Lu Jiayuan was practically breathless! That part of his past was the most unwilling memory to recall! It was his youthful impulsiveness, failing to restrain himself, resulting in wrongdoing. Until today, Jian Anning still refused to forgive him!
Especially considering this woman was not worth such actions!
Even if Jian Anning were to truly forgive him, he wouldn’t have the courage nor the face to start anew with her! His past was a mess! Especially tangled up with her younger sister...
He could hardly imagine, if he were ever lucky enough to be with Jian Anning one day, how he would face her mother and stepfather’s family!
Watching him turn around, Cheng Tingting finally smiled. "Exactly. If you weren’t glaring at me as if your nose and eyes weren’t where they should be, I wouldn’t have to resort to this! After all, we were ’one-night couple, hundred days of grace!’"
She was well-versed in the art of advancing and retreating. After threatening Lu Jiayuan moments ago, she immediately softened. After all, she still wished to enquire about information regarding Yu Zexiao from him. If offended too much, he might leave outright!
After all, her current identity was "Situ Xuan’s fiancée." Although, this identity was her substituting for her sister’s "engagement." In fact, the person officially engaged to Situ Xuan was also called "Moon-Cheng."
