She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!-Chapter 169: Rich Kids’ Game? I’m Not Playing Anymore (Part 7)
Upon hearing this, Ah Chen chuckled softly and said, "Mr. Han is joking, it can’t be him, because I don’t like him."
"So, I won’t like the flowers he sends either," she added.
The former commissioner was very fond, but in truth, she loved the flowers Xiao Su sent her the most, even if he gifted her many extravagant presents, later only giving her jewelry.
But what she yearned for the most was a bouquet personally chosen by him. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Han Fangli looked into her eyes, smiling yet calm, with no hint of emotion when mentioning Xiao Su.
It seemed she had truly let go of Xiao Su.
Han Fangli felt a bit confused; when Xiao Su first introduced her to them, he saw sweetness and infatuation in her eyes, and anyone could tell her heart was full of Xiao Su.
"I want to be the one who sends you flowers," he suddenly said, "Though you don’t like them now, I’ll try."
He turned and left without waiting for her reply.
Ah Chen didn’t say much either.
That might disappoint him.
She’s not the commissioner, she wouldn’t have any thoughts about this guy; her heart was filled a long time ago by someone that no one can replace.
The commissioner once indeed had a close relationship with Han Fangli, and today, Xiao Su’s abandonment and the ridicule of those around her shattered her heart. When Han Fangli suggested she follow him, she agreed with a smile. After that, Han Fangli paid the bill and took her away.
Actually, she held onto a hope that Xiao Su might care when he found out.
Back then she thought, as long as Xiao Su came back for her, she’d leave.
But Xiao Su didn’t look for her. After hearing she had gone with Han Fangli, he even called and asked Han Fangli to move her things.
Listening to that tone, she seemed like just a plaything.
Since then, she completely followed Han Fangli, transforming into an entirely different person.
In terms of finances, Han Fangli indeed didn’t treat her poorly, and even those around him wouldn’t dare ridicule her openly. Lost interest, he even gave her a breakup fee. But she had become a shell of herself, lacking the courage to extricate, drifting aimlessly in this circle. Her heart had decayed, maintaining only a beautiful façade, living muddle-headedly, without distinguishing today from tomorrow.
"Do you think he will be alright?" Lang Liqing asked worriedly, "He seems increasingly interested in you, some wealthy people are just like that, thinking it’s fresh and fun."
Ah Chen patted her hand: "It’s alright, don’t worry."
"What can he do? Fail in pursuit and smash up the shop? Then he’d have to compensate for all losses and spend time in jail."
Lang Liqing was amused: "True."
But the man just now probably wouldn’t do such a thing.
"Why are you so absent-minded?"
Qin Zhiyao’s words brought Xiao Su’s mind back.
He showed a slight smile: "Perhaps I didn’t rest well."
"Then let’s not talk much today, go home and rest, health is important," Qin Zhiyao said with a bit of concern, "I suddenly invited you for dinner, did I bother you?"
"No, no matter when, you’ll never bother me. If possible, I’d wish to be bothered by you for a lifetime," Xiao Su said, somewhat helpless, "It’s just you never gave me this chance."
"This time, is there a chance?" he asked.
"Coming back this time, will you leave again?" he asked again.
Qin Zhiyao said: "I won’t leave."
As for the earlier question, she didn’t answer, feeling a bit conflicted, because her heart isn’t with Xiao Su. But the person who took away her heart seems unlikely to give her an outcome.
So, she returned.
If she had to choose someone, then it’d be Xiao Su.
At least Xiao Su’s family is wealthy, and he’s liked her unwaveringly for ten years. She heard about him finding a stand-in but didn’t care much, that’s just a stand-in anyway, besides, everyone knows Xiao Su had no intimate relationship with that girl.
Being able to seek out the other person is because Xiao Su likes her.
And that girl was rumored to be from a humble background, rather poor. After being with Xiao Su for so many years, she should have gained quite a lot, not a loss; after working for a few years, she might not even earn a decent piece of jewelry. The disparity in status is too great, there’s hardly any possibility, she should understand this.
Without getting the answer he wanted, Xiao Su wasn’t discouraged.
At least this time, the other woman didn’t outright reject him.
He knew Zhiyao had someone in her heart, but returning proved there was no result. She also quickly arranged to have dinner with him, indicating there’s a good chance.
However, a lot happened today, which indeed affected his mood.
Xiao Su didn’t push further, planning to retreat a bit, and following the conversation, escorted Qin Zhiyao home, then drove himself home.
He remembered his phone was turned off, and took it out to turn it back on.
Because he was afraid someone would interrupt his date with Zhiyao, he turned it off.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he powered on, there was a message notification.
He opened it and found that many people had sent messages. He casually clicked open two to read, then his car, which was about to start, stalled and parked by the side as he went through the messages.
Someone also sent him a link, he clicked in and it was a video.
This video was trimmed of unnecessary parts, not cutting the beginning or end, capturing everything entirely.
From this angle, Xiao Su instantly knew who was live streaming, moreover, there was no blurring in the video, he knew that streaming account belonged to Wei Hui.
After watching the video, Xiao Su’s face turned livid, he slammed his fist on the steering wheel.
This scoundrel Wei Hui, has gone too far!
Ridiculous thing was Wei Hui intended to reveal Li Chen’s end, yet he himself stumbled.
He clicked into Wei Hui’s account homepage, discovering that the account was deleted, laughing in anger.
The other person just washed their hands and walked away, now it’s him being the subject of ridicule in the circle.
Xiao Su called Wei Hui: "Don’t you feel this time was too much?"
"Mr. Xiao, don’t be angry, I’m annoyed too, never thought things would turn out like this, it’s all the fault of those netizens with nothing to do, spreading such videos online. The few opposing us saw it, stirring the video up, I originally planned to pay to delete it, but it was futile, spreading everywhere." Wei Hui laughed nervously, "I was just broadcasting for fun, letting netizens see women like Li Chen who climb for wealth, didn’t expect it to affect you."
"I didn’t expect her reaction, and also this time Mr. Xiao you left too quickly, had you helped her pay, maybe things wouldn’t be so blown up."
"Shut up!" Xiao Su’s face turned ugly, "If you hadn’t been streaming it, nothing would’ve happened."
His quick departure was because he was eager to meet Zhiyao, not lacking the cash to pay.
Regarding Li Chen, he didn’t care.
But watching this video, those words echoed in his mind again, worsening his mood.
"This isn’t that serious, it’ll lose its heat after a few days," Wei Hui quietly added, feeling sorry for his account.
Those poor netizens are really a nuisance, flocking to his account to vent their frustrations, just how unhappily do they live, to do this.
"No next time for such things," Xiao Su hung up, worried if Zhiyao might see it, immediately arranging to have the video deleted.
This time, he managed to suppress the video’s popularity.
But the traces left in his heart are indelible.
And many in the circle know of this matter, laughing at him in some small groups.
Towards Li Chen, he still felt it was just her playing hard to get.
Only that idiot Wei Hui caused this big uproar.
With so many eyes watching, he wouldn’t think of Li Chen whatsoever, wishing she’d disappear forever from his sight.
Wasn’t Han Fangli interested in her?
I wonder if she realizes there’s no hope with him and goes to Han Fangli, he was quite looking forward to it.
Qin Zhiyao still saw the video, before she could speak, Lin Jiajia spoke: "Wei Hui streamed that matter, stirring the netizens."
"Previously Xiao Su was eager to find you, forgot the payment issue, he certainly isn’t lacking this bit of money, you should know, not the kind lacking manners."
Qin Zhiyao said: "I don’t care about her situation."
She indeed didn’t care much about this, no impact on her whatsoever.
She also believed Xiao Su didn’t intentionally avoid the payment.
"It’s just that Wei Hui really didn’t handle this well."
Lin Jiajia snorted: "Actually, he couldn’t stand her constantly spending Xiao Su’s money, without a care."
"But she really didn’t ask for anything." Qin Zhiyao’s eyes were complicated.
"What if it’s just playing hard to get? Doing this to get Xiao Su’s attention, hoping to change his mind," Lin Jiajia said.
Qin Zhiyao paused, said: "Then it’s quite foolish, Xiao Su won’t be swayed by this."
Ultimately, she’s just a stand-in, if Xiao Su cared, he wouldn’t use money merely to appease.
If she were smart, it’d be better to take those things, ask Xiao Su for more money, then she won’t worry about food and drink her whole life.
