Zhen Shanmei lunged at Ning Meng, clawing her fingernails at her face!
Seeing this, Ning Meng couldn’t help but frown .
This woman… she was so naive!
Just as Ning Meng was about to evade the attack, Zhen Shanmei’s hand stopped mid-air . After a long while, she put down her shaking hand and glared at Ning Meng with her teary, red eyes . Then, she begged with a quavering voice, “Please, Ning Meng! You’ve already married my idol, Huo Beichen! And not only that, but you also have Lin Qingbei . Just tell me . Tell me who else do you want to woo? I’ll be your wing-woman, but can you please not touch my Li Haojie?”
Hearing this, Ning Meng could feel a string was pulled in her heart .
Zhen Shanmei continued in a choked voice, “I won’t ever compete with you in getting the latest designer bags in fashion ever again… No! I won’t compete with you for anything anymore! If you want to win so much, I’ll let you have them all! But please! Please… only this once, I beg you… not Li Haojie… not my Li Haojie…!”
Tears were running down her cheeks as she spoke . It seemed as though she could collapse at any moment .
Taking a deep breath, Ning Meng reminded the teary Ms . Zhen . “Zhen Shanmei, can you please pull yourself together? Sure, I was quite… unrestrained back in the days . I admit that . But my standards in men are quite high, remember? How could I ever be interested in Li Haojie?”
Zhen Shanmei, upon hearing Ning Meng’s words, paused for a moment before replying, “… yeah, I suppose you’re right . ”
Li Haojie, who was kind of being insulted earlier, was stunned after seeing Zhen Shanmei’s reaction to Ning Meng’s words . After a short pause, he yelled, “What do you mean by that?!”
Zhen Shanmei quickly stepped forward to comfort him . “Ning Meng is only interested in good looks when picking men . Every single one of her ex-boyfriends was more handsome than you . ”
Still, Li Haojie was not about to give up, and so, he came up with another excuse . “Perhaps she was at odds with you, that’s why she was seducing me . This is all a ploy to hurt you . ”
Zhen Shanmei stared at him in surprise . “But… but then, she would be paying too much of a price just for this small squabble of ours!”
Li Haojie was pissed!
“Zhen Shanmei, don’t you believe me?!”
“Sure… sure… I believe you…”
Before she was able to finish her sentence, Zhen Shanmei saw Su Tiantian, who was cowering behind Li Haojie . Seeing this, Zhen Shanmei raised her voice again . “Why is she here?!”
Li Haojie paused for a moment before coming up with an excuse for Su Tiantian . “She was just passing by . ”
Zhen Shanmei looked at them doubtfully . She, very much like Ning Meng, was not a person who liked to deal with underhanded ploys . Even if she had ever done something dishonestly, she would admit it .
After taking a long look at Ning Meng, Zhen Shanmei turned toward Li Haojie . “Haojie… since Su Tiantian is here, can you answer a question for me?”
“What?”
Zhen Shanmei looked him in the eye and asked, “Do you like Su Tiantian?”
‘Do I like Su Tiantian?’
Hearing this, a rush of anger stirred up in Li Haojie’s head . In an instant, he lost his temper . “Just what the heck are you talking about? What does this have anything to do with Tiantian?!”
Stubbornly, Zhen Shanmei continued to probe for her answer . “Haojie, just tell me . Tell me that you don’t even have a lick of affection for her . You only love me . Say that you love me . Then I’ll believe you . ”
After hearing this, Li Haojie diverted his eyes away from her—it would seem that her words had somehow troubled his conscience .
‘Come on, now . Just lie to her like how I usually do… how hard could it be? Why am I having a hard time facing her right now…’
Suddenly, Su Tiantian opened her mouth, “Ms . Zhen, actually, Mr . Li and I are…”
Zhen Shanmei yelled out loudly, interrupting Su Tiantian . “Shut up! I’m not asking you . I’m asking him!”
Li Haojie lost his temper again . “When I told you that your friend is seducing me, you didn’t believe me! You don’t trust me, not even a little! How can you say that you love me?!”
Zhen Shanmei was stunned after hearing this . Seeing her like this, Ning Meng let out a long sigh . This woman… she loved Li Haojie too much . She had spent 5 years with him, completely dazed by that man’s trickeries . How could one expect her to see the truth?
Thus, Ning Meng slowly raised her phone and said, “Oops . I forgot to tell y’all just now . I was recording a video earlier . ”
Looking at Ning Meng’s phone, Li Haojie’s face turned pale!
