Chapter 75 - No Escape (1)
Chapter 75 - No Escape (1)
Su Xiaofei groaned when she heard that. What did Mo Yuchen want from her this time? She hadn't expected him to come here and see her at all, given how she had already made it clear to him that she didn't want him anymore. She also went as far as asking her mother to call off their engagement.
"If I didn't utter the name of the devil, he wouldn't have come here to see me." She muttered to herself, but it was enough for her companion to hear.
Su Xiaofei didn't notice the sudden change in Lu Qingfeng's reaction, as she already dragged herself to stand up to see that wretched man who made a fool out of her and shattered her wicked heart into a million pieces.
Mo Yuchen was the person who broke her, ruined her beyond recognition. If it wasn't for him, would she try her best to prove that she was better than Ye Mingyu? If it wasn't for him, would she endure all those criticisms thrown her way when he married her?
The husband who should be the first one to love her, care for her, was also the first person who stabbed her in the back by plotting against her and her mother, having an affair with Ye Mingyu and the one responsible for the death of her unborn child.
Remembering how she suffered in his hands, Su Xiaofei wasn't sure if she would be able to keep her nonchalant mask in place without lashing out on Mo Yuchen the moment their eyes met.
"Young Master Mo, what brings you here?" Su Xiaofei joined the man in the living area and took a seat on the armchair next to the couch where Mo Yuchen was seated.
Mo Yuchen narrowed his eyes on her. Today, Su Xiaofei was wearing a dark red dress that could make any young woman look old and unfashionable. However, it didn't look bad on Su Xiaofei at all, as it only complimented the sharpness and arrogance of her facial features. It made her look more beautiful in one's eyes.
He really thought that this unreasonable young woman's personality had changed overnight, from an arrogant and demanding person to a confident and devilishly charming woman. It had been a month since he last saw her at the hospital, but she looked more beautiful and charming this time.
Now that he'd seen her again, the feeling of being unwanted by her was too obvious for him not to notice. Her eyes lost the admiration glint they used to hold whenever she was talking to him.
Su Xiaofei despised him? This idea startled Mo Yuchen down to his core. It didn't sit well with him that she had come to hate him.
From the moment they met, Su Xiaofei was the one who kept professing her adoration towards him, even going as far as to convince her parents to arrange their betrothal. Mo Yuchen obviously couldn't stand this young woman's arrogance, but he couldn't openly oppose his grandfather when the engagement between them was already established.
"I heard that you got involved in an accident. They said you were poisoned." He said, as if it explained his very presence at the Yun Mansion.
"Ah, so the news reached your ears, huh?" Su Xiaofei crossed her legs and cupped her chin with one hand, giving her a carefree look, as if the incident where she was poisoned had never happened.
Mo Yuchen's brows furrowed at that. Had she really been stabbed and poisoned? He wondered. But the reports that came to him were true and untampered. He was just waiting to see the CCTV recordings with his own eyes.
"It's only normal for us to hear such serious news." Mo Yuchen replied nonchalantly.
"So why did you come here? Did you perhaps come to see if I was dying or not? Too bad, Young Master Mo, it seems that you would need to endure seeing more of me in the future." Su Xiaofei chuckled, enjoying how soured Mo Yuchen's reaction was.
"It took you almost two weeks for you to decide to visit me? My, my, Young Master Mo, if I died that very same day, you would be too late for your fiancée's funeral, don't you think?" She smiled at him with such a contemptuous look on her face.
Mo Yuchen grimaced, knowing that Su Xiaofei was right. The news of her accident came too late for him to do anything. If he wasn't worried about what his grandfather would do and say later, he wouldn't come here to see Su Xiaofei himself.
"It seems my visit wasn't needed at all, given how you could speak such poisonous words, Su Xiaofei." He said, not hiding his disgust towards her.
"Feifei, I'm done. Didn't you say you want to go out with me today?"
Lu Qingfeng's sudden appearance had surprised Mo Yuchen. He hadn't expected that he would also meet this young man here today. He had always found their relationship odd, considering how unusually close Su Xiaofei was to this young man. They were too close, no— more like they were too in sync with each other, as if they were meant to be together.
Su Xiaofei's eyes lit up. She knew Lu Qingfeng was saying these to save her from Mo Yuchen's presence. Since he was already casually dressed in a white shirt and a pair of dark gray slacks, he was ready to leave with her at any time.
"Ah, Xiao Feng!" She clapped her hands together in excitement and stood up. "Give me a minute, I need to take my phone and purse upstairs."
Aunty Liu came back with a tray of refreshments for Mo Yuchen, but she was confused when she saw that Su Xiaofei was already leaving.
"Feifei, you are leaving with Xiao Feng?" The old woman asked confusedly. "Then what about your guest?"
"Aunty, please see Young Master Mo out, Xiao Feng and I were going to shop.." Su Xiaofei said, dismissing her unwanted fiancé without any hesitation.
