While the bystanders might not know, it didn’t mean that it was the same for Xia Ruya. As she listened to Jiang Ruoyin’s gorgeous voice and watched her attractive poise, Xia Ruya felt inexplicably disgusted and horrible. She had never detested Jiang Ruoyin so much. She wished she could just leave.

Jiang Ruoyin was the true pretentious bitch!

Thought she couldn’t tell? From the time Jiang Ruoyin saw Si Yiyan standing beside Wen Xinya, her eyes had been filled with scorching excitement as well as a sense of envy and jealousy while it landed on Wen Xinya from time to time. Jiang Ruoyin had wanted to use the opportunity to strike a conversation with Mr. Si and gain his attention and actually used her as a stepping stone.

How totally shameless.

Also, Jiang Ruoyin could obviously tell that she was interested in Mr. Si first. She actually totally disregarded her interest as a friend and flirted with Mr. Si right before her.

Did it mean that someday, if Jiang Ruoyin were to be interested in her boyfriend, she would also seduce him without inhibitions? Everyone said to guard against fire, burglary, and your best friend—only then did Xia Ruya have a deep understanding of it.

Si Yiyan instructed the staff to send the clothes to the Mo Family and said plainly, “Let’s go!”

Wen Xinya hugged Si Yiyan’s arm joyfully and the two of them walked out of the Chanel store hand in hand.

As Jiang Ruoyin watched them leave, her gaze looked momentarily hazy. Thinking about how that Mr. Si totally disregarded her, her expression was slightly disappointed and embarrassed as she bit down on her bight red, seductive lips, tarnishing the beauty of the expensive lipstick with her subconscious act.

“Mister…” Jiang Ruoyin instinctively wanted to stop Si Yiyan. However, she suddenly shivered and felt a chill ran down her spine.

She subconsciously turned back and saw Xia Ruya looking right back at her.

Her gorgeous, elegant, pure, and flawless face was the same as before. However, for some reason, she just felt that the Xia Ruya right now was really terrifying!

Xia Ruya bit her lips and looked mistreated and slightly cold at the same time. Her emotions made her tears flow deep within her eyes incessantly as she said in a chilly manner, “He has already left. Who are you putting up this unbearable expression for?”

With a hazy gaze, she looked at Wen Xinya and that Mr. Si’s back views. Mr. Si only treated her like this because of Wen Xinya—Wen Xinya deserved to die.

After snatching everything that belonged to her, she had snatched the guy that she wanted.

Frightened, Jiang Ruoyin instinctively retracted her gaze and met Xia Ruya’s slightly sarcastic and icy cold expression, making her somewhat awkward. She bit on her lips and said worriedly, “Ruya, it’s just a skirt—just let it rest. Anyway, there are more beautiful clothes for us to pick here. You’ll definitely be able to pick something better.”

Ruya didn’t get the skirt that she liked and was instead embarrassed by Wen Xinya and that Mr. Si together. She definitely didn’t feel good.

Xia Ruya spoke with a soft voice, like a gentle breeze, but was overwhelmingly cold. “So what if the other clothes are beautiful, they’re not what I really want.”

A woman’s pursuit for a piece of beautiful clothing that she liked was the same as her intentions towards an outstanding man—the same kind of determined ambition.

However, regardless of clothes or men, she had lost to Wen Xinya!

How could she tolerate it?

Jiang Ruoyin didn’t understand the meaning, but she knew that Xia Ruya’s emotions right now were terrifying. “Ruya, you…”

Xia Ruya’s moistened gaze suddenly fell on Jiang Ruoyin as she asked, “Do you feel that I’m shameless to seduce someone else’s boyfriend and think that I was very embarrassing just now?”

Jiang Ruoyin gasped and couldn’t help but have goosebumps all over, as if a slimy, deadly snake had curled around her and tightened incessantly, robbing her breaths. She kept shaking her head. “No… I didn’t… Really…”

Xia Ruya’s tone became uncontrollably cold. Her tender lips, though gorgeous like a flower, were totally devoid of warmth. “You should clearly know whether you thought so or not. I just wanna warn you—don’t you dare treat me like a fool.”

She was only willing to continue being friends with Jiang Ruoyin because she had no other pawns after returning to Capital City. However, this didn’t mean that she would tolerate Jiang Ruoyin. Jiang Ruoyin’s act of using her as a stepping stone had crossed the line and utterly enraged Xia Ruya.

Xia Ruya liked to manipulate others. However, it didn’t mean that she liked to be manipulated by others.

Jiang Ruoyin turned pale as she hurriedly explained, “Ruya, we’re friends. Why would I treat you like a fool? Did I do anything wrong to make you misunderstand me?”

Just now, that gentleman’s Invincible Dragon black card almost blinded her. At that instant, a secret intention arose in her heart. This gentleman was young, capable, powerful, and so handsome—totally way more outstanding than that lecher. If she could gain his liking, she could dump that lecher. The Jiang family’s business could also sustain.

She wasn’t foolish and naturally understood what Xia Ruya meant. However, she wouldn’t admit it. Now, Xia Ruya had become the only successor of the Li Family and was of high status. To be friends with her was extremely beneficial both for herself and for the Jiang family.

“You really treat me as a friend?” Xia Ruya sneered and looked at her.

Friend—what a joke.

In the face of Xia Ruya’s obviously questioning tone, Jiang Ruoyin hurriedly added, “Ruya, I just felt like it was a waste. That white skirt really suits you. Can’t believe Wen Xinya that b*tch actually beat you to it.”

She subconsciously overlooked the fact that Xia Ruya couldn’t get this white skirt because of Wen Xinya and not because Mr. Si bought all rights to the skirts and designs.

Similarly, when a boyfriend cheated, most women would think that it was that woman who shamelessly seduced her boyfriend and wouldn’t think that it was an issue with the boyfriend.

This was the way that women were used to thinking and Xia Ruya wasn’t any exception. She said plainly, “Ruoyin, we’re friends, so I hope that there won’t be a second time that something like this happens. Got it?”

Seeing how Jiang Ruoyin frantically explained, Xia Ruya only felt vexed. Recalling how just now Mr. Si made her look bad in front of everyone and how Jiang Ruoyin saw it all, she detested Jiang Ruoyin even more. However, she didn’t show it.

Jiang Ruoyin only felt that at this point, Xia Ruya’s gentle expression was extremely scary and her sweet voice was like the hissing tongue of a poisonous snake. She couldn’t help but nod.
