Chapter 2056: Collateral Damage Ex-Girlfriend vs. Blackened Current (Part 22)

"Self-awareness?"

Zhang Hanhan laughed with a strange expression.

She hadn’t expected that this was how Xie Ming thought of her.

How wonderful.

Since he wasn’t even giving her any face, she might as well tear everything apart. Who doesn’t know each other’s roots anyway?

"Who really lacks self-awareness? Xie Ming, how long have you been broken up with her? She’s a wealthy heiress, with a handsome and wealthy fiancé. And you, Xie Ming, you’re just a pitiful fool who got dumped, yet still can’t forget her. The one living in delusion is you!"

"Slap!"

Silence.

Until Zhang Hanhan, clutching her face, came to her senses.

She shrieked, "Xie Ming, you actually hit me? You actually hit me!"

As if driven by some stimulus, she reached out to claw at Xie Ming’s face.

Xie Ming wasn’t careful, and a sharp pain shot across his face—Zhang Hanhan’s sharp nails had scratched him, possibly drawing blood.

"You shrew!" He shoved her away with such force that she was thrown to the ground.

Xie Ming felt extremely annoyed, and looking at Zhang Hanhan on the ground filled him with disgust.

"I’m telling you, Zhang Hanhan, we’re done!"

"Pack your things and get out today. If you’re still here when I come back tomorrow, don’t blame me for being heartless!" He coldly dropped these words, slammed the door, and left heavily.

Silence returned to the room.

It was only long after Xie Ming had left that Zhang Hanhan realized what he’d said.

He wanted to break up with her?

And he wanted her to leave?

Beyond her initial confusion, Zhang Hanhan was overwhelmed with fear and helplessness.

Xie Ming didn’t want her anymore, what was she supposed to do?

She had no money, no job, and apart from the high-end clothing and jewelry on her body, she had nothing.

The living expenses Xie Ming gave her were almost entirely spent.

She didn’t own any property; the apartment she was living in was also under Xie Ming’s name.

This meant that if Xie Ming truly abandoned her, she wouldn’t even have a place to stay!

If that happened, she’d have to go back to her previous tight days, working from nine to five every day, exhausted, and not earning enough in a month for a single handbag.

No way!

She didn’t want to live like that again!

She scrambled to her feet in a panic, took out her phone, and called Xie Ming.

She loved him so much, she had to sincerely apologize, Xie Ming would definitely forgive her!

The call connected, but before Zhang Hanhan could think of what to say, she heard a busy tone on the phone.

Clearly, the other party had directly hung up.

Unwilling to give up, she dialed again, this time hearing a mechanical female voice instead of the busy tone.

He had blocked her outright.

Zhang Hanhan sat dazedly on the cold floor, her eyes filled with despair.

...

The next day, Gu Shengyin received news from the system.

"Zhang Hanhan broke up with Xie Ming, and she was kicked out?"

Gu Shengyin mused, "I wasn’t wrong about him; Xie Ming, this man, never had any feelings. Ultimately, the only person he loves is himself."

Because Zhang Hanhan got in the way of his career, he was mercilessly discarded by him.

If Zhang Hanhan truly was just a weak Tussah Flower, that would be one thing, but in reality, she was a deeply hidden Beauty Snake...

Gu Shengyin, feeling pretty good, popped a washed grape into his mouth.

Hmm, watching them dog-eat-dog is quite entertaining too.

It’s the eighth of the five night watch periods.

Hmm... Today’s 10,000-word goal probably won’t be finished by midnight, but I’ll post it by 1 AM. Everyone should go to sleep first; check it out tomorrow morning~
