Wei Jiu’er smiled gracefully and reached out to pull Ling Bing’er gently. “It’s just a necklace, not worth getting so angry over. Let’s look at something else.”
“Miss Wei always knows how to speak…” Shen Qingyue gazed at Wei Jiu’er with a sly smile. “You waited until the argument was over before speaking. Were you intentionally waiting to see Ling Bing’er become your dog, ready to bite on your behalf? You’re such good sisters. Your reputation is all thanks to you, and Ling Bing’er takes the blame for your arrogance.”
Wei Jiu’er’s fake smile stiffened for a moment but quickly returned to normal. “I just didn’t have a chance to speak earlier. Don’t make baseless accusations.” Shen Qingyue laughed but did not respond to her words.
However, the meaning behind her laughter was clear to everyone present. Of course, those who had already fallen for Wei Jiu’er’s manipulation couldn’t comprehend it. Even if they managed to grasp some hint, Wei Jiu’er would immediately comfort them. In this regard, it was unclear whether Ling Bing’er was foolish or Wei Jiu’er was just too cunning.
The shop assistant interjected at the right moment, “Miss Shen, would you like us to wrap the necklace for you?”
“Yes.”
“Alright.”
Chen Ying had taken out her credit card to pay, but Shen Qingyue preempted her. “I’ll handle it myself.” She hadn’t initially planned on buying it, but now…
Chen Ying hadn’t returned home in a long time and was a bit short on funds, so she didn’t argue. “I’m just putting on a show. I didn’t actually plan to pay.
Luckily, you’ve got good taste. Hehe…”
They exchanged a few playful remarks and then prepared to leave with the necklace.
“Qingyue,” Wei Jiu’er approached again, her smile innocent. “You’ll come to
Zhen’s wedding, won’t you?”
Chen Ying cursed directly, “You damn…”
Shen Qingyue stopped her and smiled gently at Wei Jiu’er. “Why wouldn’t I go? Everyone already knows you’re the third party who’s risen to the top. My presence will certainly liven up the atmosphere. Weddings should be lively, don’t you think?”
Wei Jiu’er clenched her fist secretly. “Qingyue, why do you always talk about third parties like this? Zhen and I are deeply in love. If it weren’t for your interference, we would have been married long ago…”
Shen Qingyue struck at the heart of the matter. “You have quite the nerve to say that! If he truly liked you, would he have kept your relationship a secret? When I was with him, everyone knew he claimed to be single. By not making your relationship public, he’s telling you that while he may have feelings for you, other things are more important to him. A year ago, he was willing to give you up for the sake of his family’s interests, and he can do the same in the future. If anything happens, you’ll be the one abandoned. I really don’t know what you have to be proud of. By the way…” She hadn’t intended to bring up that night’s events, but now it seemed fitting. “Five days ago, Qin Zhen came to see me.”
Wei Jiu’er’s face drained of color because that night happened to be the one Qin Zhen had promised to marry her. She spoke reluctantly, “What did he want from you?”
“Who knows…” Shen Qingyue replied casually. “Let me tell you, Qin Zhen is a man with many desires, and you can only occupy a portion of his heart. If you’re willing to jump into the fire pit, I won’t stop you. I wish you happiness, respect, and locked fates.” With that, she turned and walked away with Chen Ying.
Ling Bing’er hurriedly said, “Don’t listen to Shen Qingyue’s nonsense, my brother has only ever liked you. She’s lying about my brother coming to see her a few days ago, it’s definitely to upset you. Don’t fall for it!”
Wei Jiu’er nodded absentmindedly, but deep down, she knew that Shen
Qingyue would not lie to her. Qin Zhen had never mentioned their wedding plans before, but that night, when he returned from outside, he suddenly changed his mind. It must have been something Shen Qingyue had done to anger him again. Qin Zhen had acted impulsively and agreed to the wedding.
The fact that Qin Zhen was angry because of Shen Qingyue showed that he cared. Last time, the night before he agreed to the engagement, he had stayed outside Shen Qingyue’s house all night… She bit her lip fiercely, determined not to let go. Even if Qin Zhen had someone else in his heart in the future, what she wanted was always the position of Qin family’s young mistress. She did not want to be an illegitimate daughter hidden from the world. Even if Qin Zhen were to have an affair in the future, she would help him conceal it, and she would never let go!
The two of them selected their jewelry and left the mall.
Ling Bing’er drove the car, and she noticed Shen Oingyue and Chen Ying in the square. A sinister gleam flashed in her eyes. She said, “Ju’er, with how Shen Qingyue treats you, do you want to take revenge?”
Wei Jiu’er also noticed Shen Qingyue and Chen Ying in the center of the square and knew that Ling Bing’er was about to cause trouble again. She offered a perfunctory piece of advice, “Let it go. Qingyue is just feeling upset…
As Shen Qingyue had said, Ling Bing’er was nothing more than her lapdog. Just a few words from her, and she was eager to help vent her frustrations. In the end, if something went wrong, the blame wouldn’t fall on her.. Why not take advantage of it?
