Shi Yaoguang narrated her flash marriage to Quan Jinbei as if telling a story, recounting the process in full.
After listening, everyone felt deeply moved.
"Wasn’t the Fourth Young Master’s actions a bit too much?"
"If it hadn’t been for the Third Master’s intervention, wouldn’t Miss have been..."
Soone brought this up, giving Shi Yaoguang a sympathetic look.
Indeed, Shi Yaoguang had a rough life.
Not only was she switched at birth, but when she was finally taken back, her fiancé didn’t even like her.
Even her family, in a bid to curry favor with the fiancé, went behind her back and supported the fake heiress to take her place once again.
Fortunately, at a critical mont, she made an important decision and sought refuge in Quan Mansion.
After that...
The idea of Quan Jinbei falling in love with her at first sight, although it sounds dreamy, wasn’t completely unfathomable.
The young ladies present felt a sense of regret upon hearing this.
If they had known the Third Master was capable of love at first sight, they too would have been willing to give it a try.
Of course, that wasn’t the main point.
The main point was...
Quan Jinbei publicly acknowledged his relationship with Shi Yaoguang!
He was even willing to offer his connections to pave the way for his wife.
This was no joke.
The extent of Quan Jinbei’s resources was unclear to everyone.
But as the tangled relationships were sorted out, it seed that everyone could sohow trace a connection to him.
Interest-related matters have always provoked wariness.
Quan Jinbei’s willingness to let others discuss matters concerning Shi Yaoguang’s endeavors at Quan Mansion was indeed an indication of his support for his wife.
After weighing their options, it was hard for the crowd to find a reason to refuse.
Considering this, everyone seed to have made up their minds.
Shi Yiqing observed the crowd’s reaction and knew they would certainly go.
Seeing this, she felt embittered.
Why should Shi Yaoguang get all this just by marrying Quan Jinbei?
Shi Yiqing, gazing upon Shi Yaoguang—who was the center of attention—felt a jealousy so intense it was as though a chasm had ford between them.
Cheng Lingdang watched her twisted expression and couldn’t help but laugh with great pleasure, "Shi Yiqing, aren’t you making a fool of yourself with anger? Don’t you know how to manage your expressions? You look so ugly right now, even Quan Sicheng might be put off."
"Shut up!" Shi Yiqing instinctively snapped.
Though she had so regret in her heart for not being able to marry Quan Jinbei and steal Shi Yaoguang’s mont of glory,
she also did not want to lose Quan Sicheng.
The words spoken by Cheng Lingdang struck her heart like a knife.
Of course, she was unwilling to accept it.
Cheng Lingdang, seeing her like this, rolled her eyes and said, "I shut up? Can my silence change anything? You’re going to be abandoned no matter what."
"But, you know... I don’t think Quan Sicheng will give up on you."
Shi Yiqing showed a hint of surprise, not believing Cheng Lingdang would say such a thing.
Of course, Cheng Lingdang wasn’t the type to be so kind-hearted.
She soon completed her thought.
"It’s clear that Quan Sicheng is gay. Isn’t he with you just to conceal the truth that he’s not interested in won? With you, he can still claim it’s because you were childhood friends. Anyone else wouldn’t be so easy to deal with."
With that, she patted Shi Yiqing’s shoulder, wearing a look of false sympathy, "Ah, at the end of the day, you’re quite the pitiful one too. I shouldn’t be so harsh with you."
Shi Yiqing: "..."
Even though she was being pitied, she couldn’t feel happy about it at all.
In fact...
She felt an urge to commit murder.
God damn it!!
Cheng Lingdang confronted her with an exasperated expression, innocently shrugging her shoulders.
"Don’t look at like that, I really didn’t do anything."
"And stop making a face as though I’ve stolen your man. I wouldn’t deign to snatch such trash."
Shi Yiqing couldn’t help but grit her teeth, "Cheng Lingdang!"
"Here I am, why are you yelling?" Cheng Lingdang dug at her ear, her face full of disdain.
Shi Yiqing with a darkened face, "Shut up!"
"Oh, so I should just shut up because you told to? Why should I?"
Cheng Lingdang stretched out her hand and made a funny face, "Blah blah blah, you got a problem with that? If you don’t like it, co and bite !"
"You—" Shi Yiqing was so angry she wanted to start hitting her.
But Cheng Lingdang teasingly ran off and threw herself into the arms of Mada Xiao, clinging to her arm and acting coquettishly.
Shi Yiqing’s face beca even uglier.
This was simply a combination of new resentnts and old grudges.
When the idea of getting rid of Shi Yiqing first arose in her mind, she felt she was being too cruel.
But now it seed that the decision to eliminate her couldn’t be more correct.
Fortunately...
She had resources at her disposal.
Thinking of the man she had saved in the alley that day, the corners of her mouth slowly curved into a smile.
She believed that Leng Yuchen would definitely help her.
Cheng Lingdang had no idea that she was soon to be in mortal danger. When she t Shi Yiqing’s venomous gaze, she even made a face.
Day after day, acting as though soone owed her billions.
Little did she know, she was the one who was in the wrong.
...
Shi Yiqing’s pent-up rage had nowhere to vent, and seeing Shi Yaoguang stealing all the lilight only made her feel worse.
After deliberating for a minute, she directly proposed to leave.
As expected, no one cared about her departure.
Even when she purposely approached Mada Xiao and told her she felt unwell and had to leave.
Mada Xiao didn’t show much concern for her, not even a perfunctory one.
This made her very dissatisfied.
On second thought, she ca to terms with it.
The reason Mada Xiao couldn’t see her was that her vision was obscured by other things.
As long as...
The eyesores disappeared, Mada Xiao’s attention would surely all be on her.
With this in mind, the irritation at the bottom of her heart dissipated.
After leaving the Xiao Family ho, she couldn’t wait to take out her phone and call Leng Yuchen.
"Hello."
The call connected, and Shi Yiqing timidly said, "Is this Mr. Leng?"
From the other end of the line, a low chuckle ca, "You’re calling , and you’re still not sure who it is?"
"I... It’s just that I was worried this wasn’t your number," Shi Yiqing’s voice was tinged with a soft coy tone, "Mr. Leng, I’m very glad to have t you."
Leng Yuchen seed to be laughing, his voice rising slightly, "Oh? We’ve already t, and you’re only glad now?"
"No, no... That’s not what I ant."
Shi Yiqing babbled out an explanation: "I... I’ve just had so feelings."
Leng Yuchen’s brow furrowed, his voice becoming a bit urgent, "What’s wrong? Who’s bullying you?"
"No... Nobody’s bullying , I’m just too fragile," she said, sniffing, "I just feel a bit wronged."
"What’s the matter? Tell , and I’ll solve it for you."
Leng Yuchen’s tone was very decisive.
Shi Yiqing hesitated to speak, "Nobody’s bullying , I just... I’m just unlucky."
"I don’t need you to do anything for , I’m calling you just because... I missed you a little... Besides you, I don’t know who else I can talk to about my feelings..."
