Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 539: The Tyrant CEO’s Wife-Chasing Hell
When Wan Tianning arrived, Shangxue was still by Xie Mingyu’s side, trying to appease him submissively.
Xie Mingyu was acting like a stubborn child, with a frosty expression from time to time.
"You say you have nothing to do with Lin Yue, why are you walking together?"
"We just happened to bump into each other at the door, Young Master, it’s really nothing." Shangxue explained patiently.
Xie Mingyu snorted coldly, "I don’t believe you."
"Anyway, you never believe me," Shangxue lowered her eyes sadly.
Seeing her expression, Xie Mingyu got even angrier and anxious, snorting coldly once more.
Wan Tianning, watching from the side, was dumbfounded.
Is Xie Mingyu still a man?
Even a woman wouldn’t act this way.
She thought she was quite melodramatic as far as women go, but compared to Xie Mingyu, she was still far lesser.
"Miss Wan." Shangxue greeted Wan Tianning.
Wan Tianning nodded and said to her, "You may leave now. I need to talk to Xie Mingyu."
Shangxue looked at Xie Mingyu, as if she was not reassured about leaving Wan Tianning with him.
Xie Mingyu, frustrated, waved his hand and said, "You may go now."
"Yes."
Shangxue nodded, and left the room first.
"Do you like Shangxue?"
As soon as Shangxue left, Wan Tianning leaned forward and asked Xie Mingyu.
Xie Mingyu glanced outside to make sure Shangxue wasn’t at the door to overhear, before nodding, "Yes, I do like her."
"If you like her, why do you treat her this way?" Wan Tianning asked, puzzled.
"What way? Isn’t this normal?" Xie Mingyu said. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Wan Tianning pursed her lips, "What’s normal about it? You like someone, yet you treat her like a servant, you call that normal? In your view, she doesn’t seem special, just treated like a servant."
"I’m not treating her like a servant, it’s her who sees herself as one." Xie Mingyu huffed with a scowl.
"What do you mean?" Wan Tianning was confused.
Xie Mingyu said with a cold face, "Since she was young, she’s been by my side. She knows everything about me, and naturally, I know everything about her. I never imagined that we’d have any relationship since back then I believed your sister was my fiancée. Later, seeing Ye Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue together, I realized it was my wishful thinking, but I wasn’t particularly heartbroken. Grandpa said I should get married, but those unknown, glamorous women from noble families didn’t interest me, so Grandpa proposed Shangxue marry me. Although Grandpa suggested it, I didn’t want to oppose it; instead, I was somewhat happy. That’s when I realized she’s different to me. What I didn’t expect was, she refused."
"She refused? That can’t be! She seems to follow you around and obey your every command, doesn’t seem like she dislikes you. Could it be, she really doesn’t like you?" Wan Tianning was surprised.
Xie Mingyu replied, looking grim, "Initially, I thought that too, and was very angry. I immediately found a stranger and planned to get married. But surprisingly, she remained indifferent, and before long, she was staying with Feng Jiuzun, saying she liked him. Angered, I went to be with Xunyou, who liked Feng Jiuzun too, and soon left. No matter how much I pressured her, she was always like this, willing to live or die for me, but unwilling to accept me. That’s when I went to Jiangcheng to relax, and met you."
"And then you wanted to marry me to provoke her further?" Wan Tianning asked.
Xie Mingyu nodded, "I wanted to marry Xunyou, which she didn’t believe because she knew Xunyou didn’t like me. But she doesn’t know you, so I thought maybe this could provoke her to realize her feelings."
"How stupid." Wan Tianning shook her head.
"Stupid? Are you calling me stupid?" Xie Mingyu frowned, angrily looking at her.
Wan Tianning said, "Of course, I’m calling you stupid. Why do you insist on probing her like this? Can’t you just use your mouth to say something instead of just venting? You can’t even talk?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, can’t you just ask her directly?"
"I’m Xie Mingyu, her Young Master. It should be her making a confession, not me," Xie Mingyu said urgently.
Wan Tianning: "..."
Now she understood.
Xie Mingyu isn’t ignorant about confessing, but his pride gets in the way, always feeling superior. He needs her to confess first, to be the one to take initiative.
Isn’t he just being a stubborn and arrogant person?
Just like Lin Yue?
"Let’s go on vacation!" Wan Tianning suddenly suggested.
Xie Mingyu frowned, unsure why she switched from discussing emotions to talking about vacations.
"Why go on vacation?"
"Obviously, to relax, just agree! I’m willing to cooperate with you, you shouldn’t refuse me!"
"You want to make Lin Yue jealous? But I think he already seemed jealous today, your goal is achieved. However, let’s agree upfront, once your goal is achieved, no backing out halfway. You must accompany me to finish this act before leaving."
"Okay, I understand, at least acting with you doesn’t do me any harm." Wan Tianning said with a smile.
Indeed, being rumored to be with Xie Mingyu, especially having wedding news spread around.
It’s not only harmless to her, but it’s a great thing, instant fame on trending topics, sticking to hot searches indefinitely.
Even her usually picky fans, upon seeing just a blurred photo of Xie Mingyu, immediately decided. It’s him, the future Brother-in-law Wan.
Who can resist such top-tier looks?
"Once this is done, I’ll invest in a film for you, making you the leading actress," Xie Mingyu added.
Wan Tianning replied, "Don’t think that by investing in a film, you’re doing me a favor. Let me tell you, I’m a big star, plenty of people want to invest in me and have to get in line."
"Alright, then I won’t join the crowd." Xie Mingyu said.
"I was just joking, why did you take it seriously?" Wan Tianning glared at him angrily.
Xie Mingyu chuckled and shook his head, "Women, always say one thing and mean another."
"Men, always stubborn and arrogant." Wan Tianning retorted without reservation.
This was possibly the first woman besides Ye Ningwan who dared to speak to him this way, confront him.
And she happened to be Wan Tianning, Ye Ningwan’s sister, which left him with no choice.
"Just keep arguing with me! If it weren’t for your sister, I wouldn’t let you off so easily." Xie Mingyu warned.
Wan Tianning chuckled, "Don’t bother considering my sister’s feelings, she doesn’t need you to take them into account, feel free to be impolite with me, I’d like to see how you’d be impolite!"
"Get lost! Seeing you annoys me, bring Shangxue back in." Xie Mingyu dismissed her.
Wan Tianning stuck her tongue out, made a face, and ran off.
Yet, she didn’t leave but intercepted Shangxue halfway.
"Miss Wan, do you need something from me?" Shangxue asked.
Wan Tianning nodded, "Yes, there are indeed some things."
"But, could it be saved for later? The Young Master is calling for me, I must hurry over." Shangxue said.
