267 Wives And Mistresses (2/2)

Lu Xinyi was at the end of her rope and snatched the phone from Su Qing then glared at her with teary eyes. She looked about ready to burst out crying. ”Damn burritos and holy muffins! You can't talk like that about him and…and you can't do this!”

Su Qing raised a brow at her in a challenge and put her b*tch face on, ”Why can't I? He is single so am I. You don't want him so I am going to go for him. And by the who are you to administer what can be said about him?”

Lu Xinyi felt like bursting into tears and beg her to leave him alone. The girl was everything she wasn't. There was no way she could compete with a woman of her standard.

She was a woman most of all, a woman who knew what she was doing, she was confident and not to mention she was a walking beauty, an enigma off and on camera!

Lu Xinyi pouted and raised an accusatory finger at her, ”You have a boyfriend and you can't…you can't go for him! He won't like you!”

She was talking about Yu Jian but Su Qing was in full acting mode and all her devotion was for the man in the photo. Lei Xinyi leaned back in her chair and enjoyed the show.

Su Qing scowled, her eyes reflecting the hurt Lu Xinyi brought. She inched closer to her seat and countered, ”Oh, I am very much single, he isn't my boyfriend! And why wouldn't he like me? I am beautiful, intelligent and a socialite who has an accomplished career.”

Then her lips parted as if realization dawned upon her and her eyes shone with anger, ”You have no reason to say that unless…unless you like him.”

Lu Xinyi's face deformed in anger at being called out and she shouted back, ”Of course, I like him! He is my best friend!”

An easy smile stretched on Su Qing's face and her demeanor changed. She leaned back and shrugged, ”Sweety, You are getting defensive which means you like him as a man…and Oh! Look now you are blushing. I can bet on my life you have wet dreams on him.”

Lei Xinyi was about a second away from bursting out laughing. Su Qing sure was on fire. She got the girl all riled up in seconds. Poor Girl!

The change in Su Qing mood and attitude confused her before her words register in her head and her face reddened further and in an instant, she put up her defenses, ”No! I don…”

Su Qing pointed her finger at her and chuckled, ”Your blush deepened and you are getting defensive again. If you said it with a straight face I would have believed you.”

Lu Xinyi pouted and opened her mouth to say anything then closed it. Her thoughts were conflicted.

She knew she didn't have him as a lover but she missed him like a lover. He wasn't her fiancé but she felt more engaged to him than her real fiancé.

And maybe in the sheltered piece of her heart, she did have feelings for him but she didn't want to admit to them. But she knew for sure if she could ever imagine someone to spend her whole life with it was him but...

But the realization came as even a surprise to her own self. She didn't know what she wanted but she sure didn't want to be seen as desperate after being replaced in a period of weeks by a man she thought was a constant in her life.

She turned her lips up, trying to smile but her lips wobbled and a tear slid down her cheek which she abruptly wiped, chuckled, and shrugged.

She sat in the silence for a while, mourning for her lost future staring at her hands laying on her lap. The other two women were observing her with bored eyes. Su Qing gave lei Xinyi a 'What the f*ck! Did she just hang?!' look.

Lei Xinyi scoffed and clicked her finger bringing Lu Xinyi's attention to her.

She hunched her shoulder and fiddled wither hands in her lap, her lips wobbling. Her voice barely a whisper in her confession, ”I told him no, he doesn't want to see my face since then. I tried to contact him... He hates me now there can't be anything done now and he... he has many others in life.”
