Song Nan said, âWhat do you mean? Is this how you deal with problems?â
Shen Su couldnât help but ask, âMiss Song Nan, what right do you have to blame Bei Shuo?â
âSister Song Nanâ had become âMiss Song Nanâ at this moment. Song Nan was alarmed and hurriedly softened her tone. She said gently, âShen Su, youâve misunderstood. I donât blame Bei Shuo. Iâm older than her, and sheâs not familiar with the Mu Familyâs rules. I have to remind her from time to time because sheâs the Eldest Young Madam of the Mu Family. She has a heavy responsibility. She has to take on this responsibility.â
âYouââ How could Shen Su accept this? She wanted to flare up again.
âBei Shuo, take Shen Su somewhere else to play. Leave this to me. Donât let Auntie and the others know and ruin their mood,â Song Nan said to Bei Shuo gently without waiting for Shen Su to speak. Her voice was no longer as cold and stern as before.
Bei Shuo glanced at Song Nan and smiled faintly. âMiss Song Nan, Iâll leave this to you. Iâll take the honorable Miss Shen away first.â
She squeezed Shen Suâs hand hard and wanted to pull her along.
However, Shen Su turned around and smiled fiercely at Bei Le. âYouâd better put away your thoughts. Youâve found the right person to be pretentious in front of me. From now on, Iâll hit you every time you try to be pretentious!â
Bei Le couldnât help but shrink back.
After Bei Shuo pulled Shen Su away, Song Nan said coldly, âAlright, stop pretending to be pitiful.â
Shen Yu couldnât help but say, âMiss Song, our Bei Le was really bullied. She didnât do anything. Miss Shen slapped her. I canât bear to touch my own daughter. What right does she have?â
As she spoke, Shen Yuâs tears fell.
Song Nan was unmoved. She looked at Bei Le and sneered. âReally? Bei Le, did you really not provoke Shen Su?â
Bei Le covered her face and stammered, âIâm not. Iâm just talking to my sister.â
Song Nan sneered. âWhy would Shen Su attack you when youâre talking to your sister? Forget it, as long as you believe it yourself. Iâm just reminding you that this is the Mu Family and Shen Su is Mu Enâs girlfriend. No matter what tricks you have, youâd better weigh yourself first!â
Song Nan flicked her sleeves and left.
Shen Yu was furious.
Bei Le said aggrievedly, âForget it, Mom. Anyway, weâve already completed our mission. Letâs go home.â
Taking a step back in order to advance was also a method. Now, she could only bet on Mu Enâs feelings for her.
Shen Yu couldnât bear to see her precious daughter being bullied. She immediately gritted her teeth and said, âAlright! Iâll go pack my things now! Hmph! Iâll have plenty of chances to deal with that wild girl Bei Shuo in the future!â
Shen Yu left angrily. Bei Le sat down on the stone chair, feeling melancholic.
Suddenly, she felt a shadow envelop her. She was so frightened that she hurriedly turned around and saw Gu Ming standing a few steps away expressionlessly.
Bei Leâs expression immediately changed. She said coldly, âWhy are you here? Are you here to watch me?â
Gu Ming did not speak. There seemed to be pity in his eyes.
Bei Le raised her chin arrogantly. âI really didnât expect the dignified Young Master of the Gu Family to be my brother-in-lawâs assistant. Ha, donât you find it embarrassing!â
Gu Ming said calmly, âWhatâs so embarrassing about me getting a position with my own ability? Now that I think about it, itâs embarrassing that I only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun in the past. Itâs simply a waste of my life!â
Bei Le was heartbroken and said angrily, âYou mean to say that youâre wasting your time with me?â
Gu Ming shook his head gently.
Bei Leâs eyes were about to spew fire. âDonât think that Iâm not doing well just because Iâm being bullied now. Let me tell you, Iâll definitely find a man whoâs 100 or 1,000 times better than you! I donât want to enter a small family like your family for the rest of my life! I want to stand higher and make people look up to me!â
Looking at the familiar yet strange woman in front of him, Gu Mingâs insides burned. He was in so much pain that he wanted to die. He forced his voice not to tremble. âEveryone has the right to pursue their ideals. I wish you success!â
Gu Ming turned around and strode away without any reluctance.
Pa! There was a cracking sound behind her. Bei Le must have broken the cup.
Bei Le liked to smash things when she was in a bad mood.
If it was in the past, Gu Ming would have lowered himself to make Bei Le happy. Now that she had nothing to do with him, his heart for her had long been shattered like the glass behind him.
He was no longer the Gu Ming of the past, and Bei Le was no longer the Bei Le of the past.
Their relationship was over..
