Chapter 73: Everyone Has A Secret
Translator:HenyeeEditor:Henyee
Her eyes bloodshot and face fierce, Xiao Jinning shook off Xiao Jings hand and said in a cold voice, That was her own choice. She chose your family. Why do you blame me?
Xiao Jing sneered, You set her up and made her family turn away from her. How could she return to her parents? Xiao Jinning, if you dont want Liu Chengyu to find out about your real identity, dont want him to know that you are actually not the Xiao Familys daughter and dont want him to know youve been lying to him, then youd better lay low. Otherwise, I cant guarantee that I wont tell him about your secret. If Liu Chengyu finds out that Xiao Rou is the real daughter of the Xiao Family, while youre just a kid who was mixed up with Rourou, do you think he would still want you? Would he still take care of you like he used to?
Xiao Jinning shouted hysterically, How can you guys treat me like this?
How can we? Xiao Jing said coldly, Would you like me to remind you again? Since youve taken up Rourous place, youd better behave yourself. Dont try to frame Rourou over and over again. You trampled on her arteries after she was hit by a car, which almost killed her! We can let it pass and even forget what you did to her in school, but if you dare mess with Rourou again, I swear Ill make you feel regret!
She should die! Xiao Jinning yelled at him, her eyes entirely red. She had no idea whom she was talking to as she continued, Only when she is dead will I be safe. Ive done nothing wrong!
Xiao Jing sneered, Youre crazy!
Xiao Jinning screamed, Get out of here! Get out of my face!
Xiao Jing continued to sneer. What a psycho!
The two brothers then turned and walked away. Xiao Sa glanced back at Xiao Jinning, put his cell phone into his pocket and said, I didnt expect that she would be goaded into spilling everything she did.
Were Lin Ru and Xiao Hongyi bewitched by this woman? How could they abandon a true phoenix and embrace a pheasant? They must be out of their minds! Xiao Jing recalled the hysterical look that was on Xiao Jinnings face, and a hint of disgust flashed through his eyes.
Finally having vented the hatred in her heart, Xiao Jinning felt her head completely blank. She was in a black dress and her hair was done up, so she still looked alright. She slowly squatted down, took a deep breath and murmured with tears in her eyes, Why does everyone treat me like this? I just want to guard what I have. Whats wrong with that? Xiao Rou, why did you come back? Why? Why didnt you just die
Liu Chengyu had been hiding behind a pillar ever since Xiao Jinning ran out to catch up with Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa. There was a complex look on his face, and it wasnt possible to tell whether he was shocked or happy right now. So that girl was the real daughter of Lin Ru and Xiao Hongyi and his real fianceno wonder he liked her so much and couldnt help fixing his eyes on her when he first saw her.
Thinking of how he could have been with such a beautiful girl, yet that possibility was ruined by Xiao Jinning and Lin Ru with their lies, he looked at Xiao Jinning who was still squatting down on the ground with narrowed eyes before turning to walk back inside the salon.
It took Xiao Jinning ten minutes to calm down. When she entered, Liu Chengyu had just gotten out of the fitting room. She walked up to him with a smile. Liu Cheng smiled at her tenderly and said, Ive tried two suits and I think this one is better. What do you think?
Xiao Jinning was in no mood to choose clothes for him. Hearing his question, she nodded with a forced smile and replied, It looks good. Just pick this one.
Liu Chengyu nodded and told the stylist that he wanted this one and went to do his hair. Xiao Jinning sat on the sofa in a daze. Seeing the absent-minded Xiao Jinning from the fitting room, Liu Chengyu gave a cold smile.
Suddenly noticing that someone was looking at her, Xiao Jinning looked up at Liu Chengyu, and the latter smiled at her gently. Xiao Jinning lowered her head again and kept telling herself that it was just her delusion. How could Chengyu possibly smile at her that way? Chengyu had always loved her.
After the stylist finished doing Liu Chengyus hair, he got up and went to Xiao Jinning. The latter saw his feet stop in front of her, and then she looked up at him. Liu Chengyu reached out his hand to pull her up and asked tenderly, Did they scold you?
Xiao Jinning smiled and shook her head pitifully as she replied, Their tone was a bit harsh, but its alright. I can bear it.
Liu Chengyu nodded. Then dont speak with them anymore. Anyway, you have me now. You dont have to care about them.
Warmth welled up within Xiao Jinning. She put his arm around Liu Chengyu and said softly, Chengyu, you are so kind to me.
Liu Chengyu patted Xiao Jinning on the shoulder, saying softly, You are my fiance. Of course Ill be kind to you.
The smile on Xiao Jinnings face froze and she hugged Liu Chengyu more tightly. Noticing her reaction, Liu Chengyu raised his eyebrows and didnt speak. After a while, Liu Chengyu said in a low voice, The banquet is about to start. People are probably waiting for me there. Lets go over.
Xiao Jinning shook her head, still hugging Liu Chengyu. Liu Chengyu slightly frowned. When he was about to push her away, she suddenly asked, Chengyu, are you so kind to me only because Im your fiance?
Liu Chengyu frowned. Did he like this girl? He didnt know. Ever since he was a child, his parents had been telling him that she was the Xiao Familys Miss and his fiance, that he had to be good to her and they should love and take care of each other after they got married. He had been doing very well and even became a good man in the eyes of many; however, when that girl came into his sight, he found that he couldnt control himself. He had a fiance, yet his eyes would involuntarily come to rest on that girl.
So even though he had tried his best to defend Xiao Jinning at her school, his eyes couldnt help following that girl.
But now he knew the truth. She was his real fiance, and the one who stood beside him had stopped them from getting together.
Thinking of this, Liu Chengyu smiled and put his arm around Xiao Jinnings waist. His eyes turned tenderer and he whispered, What are you talking about? Although youre my fiance, I wouldnt be with you if I didnt love you!
Xiao Jinning finally heard the answer she had wanted to hear. She raised her head and kissed Liu Chengyu on the face, saying, I knew you love me the most.
Liu Chengyu chuckled and led her out of the salon as he asked, Silly girl, can we go to the banquet now?
