"It’s her own fault for recklessly not watching where she’s going."
Gu Shaocheng’s casual remark pushed her heart further into the abyss, but the sentence he uttered next was like a needle, piercing through the courage she had mustered. "Miss Zhou, please have so self-respect."
His gaze fell on her hand, his thin, cool lips parted slightly, and his perfectly shaped mouth uttered two commanding words: "Let go."
She stared at him blankly, unaware of when she had released his hand.
With a graceful turn, he put an end to this minor episode in an effortless manner.
More and more eyes turned towards her, as if everyone was laughing at her.
Once upon a ti, she just had to stand quietly and cleverly by Gu Shaocheng’s side to receive countless envious and jealous looks. During those tis, she blushed, feeling uncomfortable. At this mont, nobody would comfort her by saying, "You can do whatever you want when you’re with ." Those tender words had vanished without a trace with the wind.
Now, she had to face a crowd full of mocking eyes, and all he gave her was: "Please have so self-respect!"
Chenxing watched Gu Shaocheng walk away helplessly, drained of energy, and a silent bitterness climbed up her heart.
Whatever dances or attractions she had in mind all vanished from her mind.
His every word and action had fueled the arrogance of those who looked down on her...
His every move had completely excluded her from his world...
No one would be cautious around her anymore because without Gu Shaocheng, she was nothing!
At these thoughts, Chenxing didn’t know how she felt, her heart filled with sorrow over her past. She was deeply infatuated with him but he was oblivious.
Run...
All she wanted to do was run...
She didn’t have the audacity to continue embarrassing herself here.
Probably everyone was treating her as a laughingstock who stubbornly refused to let go.
Chenxing glanced at Luo Xi, who was rushing towards her. At that mont, she didn’t want to return to Sister Luo Xi’s side and force herself to put on a brave face. All she wanted was to run away from this embarrassing place. But as she turned to flee, she bumped into soone again. Today was really her unlucky day.
It only got more humiliating from there.
The sound of glass shattering drew the attention of the crowd. The first one to scream wasn’t her, but the woman next to her who was splashed with wine. Her screams imdiately brought everyone’s attention back to the scene.
The dress on Chenxing was soaking wet, while the waiter holding the wine was panicking. The woman who got her outfit splashed yelled, "What the hell are you doing? Are you blind? Where are you going without looking?"
The woman was a miss from the Gu Family, known for her temper. Because she had a little disagreent with her boyfriend tonight, her temper flared, even more, when she saw Chenxing. She rembered gossip she had heard and concluded that her cousin had indeed broken up with this woman.
It had only been a few days since the woman who used to stand by her cousin’s side, treated with unlimited love, got dumped. The woman with a bad temper seed to have found soone more miserable than her, and all her snarky comnts ca out unrestrainedly. She berated both Chenxing, who was soaked, and the panicking waiter, "You two, both careless, are responsible for my dress. You’ll pay for it."
The waiter, who was doing his best to salvage the wine glass he was carrying, kept apologizing: "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry."
