Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 352 - 353: Do Only Things You Won’t Regret
Lin Banxia felt that Chu Tingting’s words were incredibly hurtful. The disdain and contempt in her eyes were so obvious, so glaring.
She was already someone who had died once, moreover, she had predicted that she might have to die again three years later.
So, Lin Banxia was no longer that timid or afraid of trouble. When someone proactively came to provoke her, backing down would truly destroy her dignity, only making her opponent believe she would be easier to bully in the future.
"The eldest young master of the Huo Family is a very charming man. I believe there must be plenty of people with designs on him, wouldn’t you say?" Lin Banxia replied calmly, her expression deliberately infuriating Chu Tingting.
"You... you don’t even stop to consider your status. Do you think you’re worthy of being the Huo Family’s young mistress?" Chu Tingting, proud and arrogant, had never faced setbacks growing up. Unsurprisingly, Lin Banxia’s words enraged her, causing her to rebuke her with a loss of decorum. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Lin Banxia replied indifferently, "And what status do I have? Don’t you already know that?"
"You’re nothing but a shameless, cheap woman!" Chu Tingting lashed out directly, as if berating her as lowly would ease her feelings.
"And how much more dignified are you? Aren’t you also actively chasing after a man, lowering yourself in the process?" Lin Banxia retorted coldly, unwilling to endure such insults.
Chu Tingting’s face flushed pale with anger at her words, but they were indisputable facts.
Everyone knew that she was openly pursuing Huo Yanting. This was practically taboo for her, a sore spot that anyone who touched would regret.
"Shut up! Who do you think you are to lecture me?" Chu Tingting suddenly stepped forward, raising her hand to strike Lin Banxia across the face.
Lin Banxia reacted quickly, grabbing her wrist and giving it a firm push. "You’re only lucky to have been born into privilege. You have an impressive father, and that makes you think you can go around hitting people?"
Failing to land the slap, Chu Tingting’s face turned red with fury. "Lin Banxia, do you believe I can have this pear garden bulldozed, leaving you homeless and wandering the streets?"
"I don’t think you have that kind of power." Lin Banxia was starting to feel cautious. If Chu Tingting truly tried to move against the pear garden, she was confident Huo Yanting would intervene. At that point, this conflict would become the biggest strain on their relationship.
Chu Tingting took a cold glance at the pear garden’s grand entrance, her lips curling into a sneer. "If you doubt me, just wait and see. I’ll make sure you understand what I’m capable of."
"Miss Chu, if you truly believe Huo Yanting will love you and marry you, you wouldn’t be running over here to cause trouble for me. In the end, you lack confidence, don’t you? Coming here to vent your frustrations—don’t you think that’s quite unfair?" Lin Banxia smirked mockingly.
"If you hadn’t been clinging to Yan Ting, would I even bother looking for you?"
"Haven’t you noticed? I haven’t gone looking for him at all recently," Lin Banxia countered sharply.
Chu Tingting froze for a moment, her expression growing even angrier. "No matter what, your mere existence disgusts me."
"If you truly need to hate me that much, then there’s nothing I can do about it," Lin Banxia replied before turning to leave.
Chu Tingting took two steps forward, chasing after her. "Lin Banxia, as long as you promise me that you’ll never see Yan Ting again, I won’t harm your pear garden."
"Why should I promise you anything? Who I meet and who I associate with is my choice and my freedom." Lin Banxia wasn’t foolish, outright rejecting her offer.
"You’re so unreasonable. You’ll regret it!" Chu Tingting was even more enraged and openly threatened her.
Lin Banxia curled her lips slightly. "I don’t have the time to dwell on regrets. I only do things that ensure I won’t have any regrets or unfulfilled wishes."
