Chapter 391 - Whos The Mistress (2/2)

Chu Lui noticed she was about to leave and stood up in a hurry. He reached out and grabbed her hand. Instantly, it seemed like something had burrowed into his heart. His heart skipped a beat. It was a strange feeling.

Thump, thump, thump…

His heart was beating rapidly. His chest was full as if he had suddenly found something he was missing. All of a sudden, it dawned on him; but it was too late, it seemed.

”What are you doing?” Suddenly, a sharp shriek cut through the air. It was like an angry wind and a jealous rain, and it made the air turned icy cold instantly. Li Manni approached them, not believing what she was seeing.

Her own husband and her husband's ex-wife. How could they? She was carrying his child.

”Manni, go back first.” Chu Lui held Xia Ruoxin's hand tight, not wanting to let go instinctively. He was scared that he wouldn't find her back again after he let her go again.

”Go back? Why would I?” Li Manni was starting to become hysterical. She walked forward with rapid strides and reached her palm out without hesitation, her pretty eyes now filled with jealousy and hate.

She was going to murder her. Murder this shameless woman. She clearly knew that Chu Lui had a wife and was expecting a child soon, but she was still here shamelessly trying to rekindle their old flame.

Unforgivable.

There was a loud smack. It shocked everyone present at the scene. Luckily, it wasn't the peak period; and there weren't many people in the shop. The prices in this shop were high, and other than the waitress, there were only a few other people. Chu Lui would lose face otherwise.

However, his face was already lost. For example, there was a handprint conspicuous on his usually stony face. How was he going to explain it to others when he returned?

Was he going to say that he knocked against something or that he fell?

Li Manni's eyes were overflowing with tears. Her fingers were tingling, and her fingertips were already numb. She had put in a lot of force in that slap.

”Why? Why?” She went forward and pounded on Chu Lui. ”Why are you together with her? Did she seduce you? Xia Ruoxin, you shameless bitch. Why are you appearing in our lives now? What right do you have to meet up with my husband again?”

The people in the shop were eavesdropping surreptitiously, and with those words, they vaguely understood the situation. Their eyes landed on Xia Ruoxin as they looked down on her with hostility.

Out of all the things she could be these days, she had to be someone's mistress.

Chu Lui glared icily at them, and they didn't dare get in on the action anymore due to the intimidation from his coldness.

Xia Ruoxin rubbed her wrist, staying silent as Li Manni beat and scolded Chu Lui and as the condescending and unfriendly eyes landed on her. She turned around and took the vase that held the rose, which was half-filled with water. She put the rose on the table, and before anyone could react, water splashed onto the top of Li Manni's head.

The cold sensation on Li Manni's face made her shudder. The water trickled down her face, washing down her elaborate makeup and ruining it. She was pregnant, but which was more important: the child or beauty? She was wearing makeup and high heels. Did she even care for her baby?

”You poured water on me? You had the nerve to do so?” Li Manni touched her face. She couldn't believe that she, Xia Ruoxin, had the nerve to pour water on her. How dare she? How could she?
