And so, instead of her getting bored waiting in his office, Li Chuntao decided to head out to find sothing to drink and waste ti while waiting for Shen Zichen's return. The hospital, surprisingly, wasn't really that busy, considering winter had just started and the roads were more prone to accidents, causing the ER to be flooded with patients.
She didn't wander too far from Shen Zichen's office and had taken the stairs instead of sharing the elevator with the others in the hospital. She tried her best not to attract unwanted attention from the public, but fate had different plans for her today.
Li Chuntao was about to take the stairs leading to the floor where Shen Zichen's office was when she caught a glimpse of a familiar woman who just ca out from the obstetrics departnt.
The corner of her lips curled up as she decided to confront the bitch who tornted her twin sister for months until her death.
The alluring figure that could charm n to her bidding was gone, because now, Lin irong was obviously heavily pregnant as her due date was approaching soon.
Lin irong couldn't even fit into her sexy lingeries and dresses and was now forced to wear baggy clothes that looked like bedsheets wrapped around her body. How bad was her fashion taste that she couldn't even choose a good dress for pregnant won to use?
Yu Lou followed behind her, making sure that Li Chuntao wouldn't get hurt just in case Lin irong snapped at her. Didn't they say pregnant won could do crazy things, driven by their hormones?
The hallway was deserted and there weren't any people, so Li Chuntao didn't see any issue in confronting this woman.
"Miss Lin, I wasn't expecting to see you here." Li Chuntao's voice caught Lin irong's attention, who turned to face her and looked at her with shock written all over her face.
Li Chuntao's eyes then landed on Lin irong's obvious protruding stomach and smiled.
"Oh, wow. Hasn't it just been a month since I last saw you? Now you are really round with a child. I wonder if it's a boy or a girl? Didn't people say that babies are blessings? But I think it's unfair for the baby to have a mother like you." She tsked and shook her head, much to Lin irong's chagrin.
Lin irong wondered how Li Xiuying earned such a poisonous tongue. One that could tornt her, hurt her with words that easily degraded her.
"Unlike soone who couldn't even give her husband a child for years," she spat back to Li Chuntao which earned a laugh from the latter.
Li Chuntao wiped the tear in the corner of her eye as she tried to calm herself down from the fit of laughter. This sa old joke again? Couldn't they co up with a better nasty remark for Ying other than shaming her for her inability to bear a child for Mu Jianyu?
"Miss Lin? Can't you co up with a better joke next ti we et? Cause I'm getting tired of hearing the sa thing. A joke will lose its humor when you overuse it, you know," She told Lin irong before giving her a disgusted look.
Lin irong was fuming in anger. Her hands clenching hard on her sides as she tried her best not to snap. Why? Why was it that every ti she t this woman, she always lost her composure and her hatred for Li Xiuying would multiply every ti she was taunted by her?
"Is that all that you can say?" She sneered back at Li Chuntao. "I heard you and Jianyu are already divorced. You've lost your husband to , Lady Li."
"And yet I see that he still hasn't kept his promise to marry you?" Li Chuntao covered her mouth with one hand as she tried to stifle her laugh but failed. "Don't worry Lin irong, I'm willingly donating my trash to you. Since you like taking other people's trash, I hope you'll have good use of him."
Li Chuntao enjoyed how Lin irong's face blanched then turned to red then back to white. This woman surely didn't have any talent in acting. Like Ying had said before, Lin irong must be a codienne because every word she uttered was nonsense and laughable.
Lin irong had already reached the limit of her patience. She didn't think she could stop herself anymore if Li Xiuying continued to dean her.
Seeing her ugly expression, Li Chuntao smirked, stepping forward and invading Lin irong's private space, before twisting the cap of the drink she bought earlier and offered it to Lin irong. She gave her a mocking smile, a smile that further infuriated the pregnant woman.
"Here, Miss Lin. You need to calm down. It would be bad for your baby if your blood pressure rises. You wouldn't want that do you? That's the only thing that binds you to Jianyu, right? If you didn't have your baby, do you think he would waste his ti on you?"
This ti, Lin irong finally snapped at her and slapped away the drink Li Chuntao was offering to her. The content spilled on Li Chuntao's white blouse and she was forced to step back in shock.
"Lin irong!" A familiar voice reached their ears and Li Chuntao hid her insidious smile behind her hands as she wiped off the splashed liquid on her face.
They turned their head and saw Mu Jianyu furiously walking towards them and glaring at Lin irong. Of course, Li Chuntao had seen him even before Lin irong noticed he was there.
How can she not use this chance to sow discord between them and let them go after each other's necks?
Wasn't that why she continued to push Lin irong's patience to the limit? Just so she would hit her? It would have been better if Lin irong's slapped her face, but Li Chuntao wouldn't want to give the woman the satisfaction of hurting her.
The one who should suffer wasn't her. It must be Mu Jianyu and Lin irong.
"What do you think you're doing to Ying? She was just concerned about you and yet you dare to hit her?" Mu Jianyu was fuming mad when he saw how Lin irong tried to hit his wife.
No. Mu Jianyu corrected himself. His ex-wife. His Ying had asked him for divorce a month ago and he was forced to give back her freedom even if he didn't want to. Since then, he hadn't seen Ying nor talked to her.
His eyes then softened as he looked at Li Chuntao, whose clothes were tainted with the drink she offered to Lin irong.
"Ying, are you alright?" Mu Jianyu asked her worriedly. He was about to touch Li Chuntao's head when she flinched and stepped back, not allowing him to touch her.
The pain that spread on Mu Jianyu's chest was instantaneous. Ying didn't want to have anything to do with him. She didn't even want him to touch her. The woman in front of him was treating him worse than a stranger.
"Don't you dare touch her!" Shen Zichen's voice ca behind Li Chuntao as he walked towards his woman and covered her torso with his white coat. He didn't care if it would need extre washing later due to the stains the drink would leave on it.
"You've already lost all your right on her, so fuck off, Mu Jianyu,"
