Chapter 2055: Collateral Damage Ex-Girlfriend vs. Darkened Current Girlfriend (Part 21)

Once they got in the car, Gu Shengyin finally couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing.

Cen Yuye was a bit curious: "You’re this happy?"

Gu Shengyin: "Of course. Look how badly you scared him, hahaha. Seriously, I’ve wanted to do that for ages."

Cen Yuye: "..." All right then, his future wife’s style always seemed a bit off compared to other people.

But he actually liked it.

The two of them, in a harmonious mood, went back to the Xie Family together.

On Xie Ming’s side, after being suspicious for a long time, he finally understood what Cen Yuye’s words meant.

Having finally found the "truth," Xie Ming and Zhang Hanhan had their first quarrel.

The first time, and also the most intense one.

"Hanhan, you actually went to see Xie Han behind my back. Why didn’t you discuss it with me?" Xie Ming was a bit irritable.

This girlfriend of his had a good temperament, could manage a household, usually relied on him, and had always been able to satisfy his macho mentality.

The only flaw was that her horizons were lacking.

That was also the thing Xie Ming disliked most about Zhang Hanhan.

This kind of woman could be a mistress, but as a wife, absolutely not.

Xie Ming had thought it through very clearly: once his company got on the right track and his future looked bright,

by then, the reputation of a promising young talent would definitely be his, and with his good looks as a bonus, finding a rich young lady whose family background was even better than his would not be difficult at all.

A woman like that as a wife wouldn’t embarrass him in public.

As for Zhang Hanhan...

This woman who had followed him all along, Xie Ming told himself he wouldn’t treat her badly; as long as she was willing to keep following him, he was willing to provide for her in comfort.

He never imagined that Zhang Hanhan would secretly land him in such huge trouble.

What kind of families were the Xie Family and the Cen Family?

They were like the Stabilizing Sea Needle of the business world in Cloud Sea City; all they had to do was move two fingers...

No, they didn’t even need to do it themselves.

Just a single look, and naturally there would be plenty of people eager to cling to those two families, rushing to the front to clear away any eyesores for them.

Xie Ming himself would’ve been very happy to be the one doing that kind of thing.

Yet now he had become the one being cleared away.

And the reason was this woman in front of him, who didn’t know what was good for her and kept provoking Xie Han again and again!

"You’re just completely brainless!" he cursed.

He didn’t know which sentence had touched a nerve, but this woman who was usually obedient and gentle to him in everything suddenly exploded.

She shrieked, "I didn’t discuss it with you? I’m brainless? Xie Ming, think about it with your conscience—if I had told you, whose side would you have taken?"

Xie Ming frowned at her, completely unable to understand what she meant by that.

Zhang Hanhan went on, "Don’t think I don’t know. You and that Xie Han might have broken up, but you’ve never gotten over her. I’m the one who’s your girlfriend! I went to see your ex and told her to stay away from you—how is that wrong?"

Xie Ming’s face darkened; no wonder Xie Han had looked at him the way she did.

"Of course it’s wrong!"

He glared at the woman in front of him. "What were you trying to do, Zhang Hanhan? How long have I been broken up with Xie Han? Do you not know whether I’ve had any contact with her? Do you have any idea who she is? Do you know who her fiancé is? I’m telling you, we absolutely cannot afford to cross these people, do you understand?"

"Zhang Hanhan, can you have a little self-awareness?"
