Nie Xi had a wide circle of friends, and she was also the daughter of the Nie Family. Once she posted on her WeChat Moments, almost everyone in the upper echelon of society would know about the d*ck move of Xing Linlin and Cheng Xingyang. But Xing Shu had yet to fall out with the Cheng family for the time being, so she held back. Moreover, now that she had slept with Cheng Lang, she had exacted revenge on Cheng Xingyang. This was also much more effective than public cursing—it was a punch to Cheng Xingyang’s guts!

“How did I deal with her? Cheng Xingyang is very protective of her.” Xing Shu chuckled.

“D*mn it! Is Cheng Xingyang blind?! What does he see in that b*tch, Xing Linlin?!” Nie Xi cursed.

When the car arrived at the entrance of the bar, Xing Shu immediately saw Nie Xi standing at the door. Nie Xi was dressed very sexily, different from Xing Shu’s gorgeousness. If Xing Shu was as gorgeous as a peony, then Nie Xi was a flamboyant rose with thorns.

Nie Xi immediately noticed the marks on Xing Shu’s neck. “No way, Xing Shu. Cheng Xingyang has already slept with Xing Linlin so many times, yet you still let him touch you? Are you not afraid of getting sick? I’d better bring you to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow.”

Xing Shu said, “It’s not Cheng Xingyang.”

Nie Xi’s eyes widened in shock. Although Xing Shu was beautiful, she had always followed the rules. Ever since her engagement to Cheng Xingyang, she had always kept a distance from other men. She even said that she wanted to wait until their wedding night to have sex for the first time. But how long had it only been since Cheng Xingyang’s affair? She had already fooled around with another man behind Cheng Xingyang’s back? Nie Xi had told Xing Shu a long time ago that it was very simple between men and women—jump in bed when you meet one whom you like. As long as you were happy, nothing else mattered. However, Xing Shu had always disagreed with her. She did not expect Xing Shu to be enlightened during her absence overseas.

“Who is that man? How’s his technique? Tsk tsk, how many days has it been? They still haven’t disappeared yet. It must have been quite intense, huh?” Nie Xi asked curiously.

Xing Shu could not bring herself to discuss it so openly like Nie Xi, so she pulled her into a booth and sat down. Nie Xi grabbed her hand and raised her chin. “Look, who’s that?” Xing Shu followed Nie Xi’s gaze and saw Xing Linlin, who was being harassed by a few men. Wearing the same overused look of fragility, Xing Linlin bit her lips as if she could cry at any moment at being surrounded by a few drunk men who spouted dirty talk.

This was a famous members-only bar in Beijing called Sunset with membership available only at a fee of a minimum of a million yuan. Hence, the clientèle was either rich or famous. Xing Linlin was only able to obtain membership here because of Cheng Xingyang.

Xing Shu’s eyes narrowed. She had been in the Cheng Corporation Group for three years and had earned assets worth hundreds of millions for Cheng Xingyang. All the mergers and acquisitions—big and small—were all done by her. In the end, her hard work got her nothing in return. Instead, Xing Linlin was the one reaping all the benefits.

When Xing Linlin saw Xing Shu, her eyes turned red. “Xing Shu, help me…”

Nie Xi cursed and stared at Xing Linlin, “You b*tch, are you doing this on purpose?”

Xing Linlin shivered in fear. Her lips trembled as she said, “I’m not. I’m sorry. I just think that you guys are dressed very prettily today and are regulars at this bar. You can definitely think of a way to persuade them…” Her words conveyed two messages to the men surrounding her—One was that Nie Xi and Xing Shu were pretty; and the other was that they were regulars here and open to invitations. So, don’t harass me—I’m a good woman. Go harass them.

Even Xing Shu was amused by Xing Linlin’s words. However, she was worried that Cheng Xingyang would appear. After all, Cheng Xingyang was on the phone with Xing Linlin—probably calling for help—when she left the apartment. She felt disgusted at the sight of Xing Linlin and Cheng Xingyang and wanted to avoid them. However, when the men heard Xing Linlin’s words, they surrounded Xing Shu.

“You slut!” Nie Xi was not going to take it lying down. She moved to slap Xing Linlin, but Xing Shu held her back and led her to a crowded place. “Nie Xi, if you slap her, it’ll just make it easier for her to run crying into Cheng Xingyang’s arms.”

“Go cry, I’m not afraid of her!” Nie Xi was irate.

Xing Shu knew that Nie Xi was not afraid. It was not just Nie Xi; even Xing Shu wanted to slap Xing Linlin. However, this was a bar, and there were too many people. If they went up against Cheng Xingyang and Xing Linlin, it would only invite everyone’s speculation and implicate the Cheng and Xing families in the end.
