"No one’s here, Ye Ranran," murmured Xu Zi. Her hand rubbing against Ye Ranran’s arm intentionally or unintentionally.
Her nails barely grazing over the skin, the chilling touch caused goosebumps to form on Ye Ranran’s delicate skin.
"You’re so sensitive, no wonder Jun Mochan adores you so much."
Although Ye Ranran was not a breathtaking beauty, her appearance was very pleasing. Combined with her delicate skin, she was rather attractive.
"Are you implying that my brother has been neglecting you?" Ye Ranran squeezed Xu Zi’s waist hard.
Using all her strength, she pinched as hard as she could.
She didn’t care if anyone noticed.
If Xu Zi wanted to be abused, why should she decline the offer? She was the world’s best daughter-in-law.
The waists of women are generally soft and sensitive. When Ye Ranran squeezed Xu Zi with such force, she almost lost her balance.
Her long nails scratched Ye Ranran’s skin, Xu Zi looked ferocious, "Ye Ranran, how shameless can you be?"
She’d never seen a more shameless woman.
"Shameless? Xu Zi, when you were flirting with my ex-boyfriend behind my back, why didn’t you show any shame then? How long did you think you could hide it?" Ye Ranran held onto Xu Zi tightly, ignoring the pain in her arm.
If she was going down, she was taking someone with her.
Now that she was injured, she was at a disadvantage, if she was cast aside by Xu Zi.
That would be a tragedy.
Present at the ribbon-cutting ceremony that day, Ye Ranran wore a light purple dress, with a zipper at the back.
Catching sight of the zipper at the back, Xu Zi’s eyes flickered as her actions were faster than her thoughts.
She squeezed Ye Ranran’s arm with one hand while pulling the zipper on the dress with the other.
Realizing her intent, Ye Ranran was forced to let go of Xu Zi.
Xu Zi kicked at her. Losing her balance, Ye Ranran fell next to a flower bed by the door.
Her dress caught on a rose thorn and tore.
Xu Zi watched with a triumphant smile, her eyes usually filled with kindness now flashed with arrogance, "Ye Ranran, after nine years, you still can’t beat me."
"Yes, I can’t beat you. I will never beat you." Ye Ranran mumbled.
"Ye Ranran, you are too weak. With such frailty, you still dream of entering the Jun family." Xu Zi warned, gloating.
"What did you say?" A cold voice echoed from behind.
An intense cold wind formed behind her. She stood opposite the cyclone, facing its full force head-on.
In an instant, Xu Zi felt as though she was covered in a layer of ice. The cold made her teeth chatter and her arrogance instantly dissipated.
"Ah Yi, you’re back?" Xu Zi turned around, her face was warm with a perfect smile.
Ye Ranran pursed her lips and tried to stand up, using the flower bed for support.
The intense pain that came from her palms was unbearable. But she didn’t care.
Without a mirror, she knew how disheveled she must look.
A loving couple, and she, beaten and bruised.
Well, without comparison, there wouldn’t be hurt.
Huo Yi didn’t want to look at the fake smile on Xu Zi’s face, he walked past her directly to help Ye Ranran, "Are you okay?"
"Are you blind?" Did she look okay? She was covered in injuries from head to toe!
"Ah Yi was just concerned about you."
"Do I need his concern?" Ye Ranran retorted.
Xu Zi put on an expression as if she had been bullied, looking at Huo Yi pitifully, "Ah Yi..."
