Chapter 470 - This Girl...
" I don't want your so-called advice. It's my life, so I will deal with it myself. Don't interfere in my affairs. You're my brother so act like a brother only. Don't try to become my father." Bai Xiuren glared at Bai Ju and wriggled out of his grasp.
" And you. You must be really happy right? This is what you wanted right? Liwei, I am telling you, this girl is not right for you. She is a seductress and only behind your money. She said it herself that the position of Mrs Jin is hers."
" She is just trying to take your benefit. Don't get fooled by her. Liwei I never told you before, but I really like you. I have liked you since childhood. You know that if we get together I can help you in many ways. I can help Jin Corporations to get into the hospitality field as well. I have so many connections. "
Bai Xiuren walked to Liwei with her unstable steps. She was clearly drunk and exhausted yet she was trying to say her words.
She had a few more drinks after leaving the room and before coming out to talk to Xie Ming. She thought that she could handle it, but now her head was feeling dizzy.
Liwei frowned upon the strong smell of alcohol. He pursed his lips seeing her drunken state.
" Xiuren, I am sorry but I don't love you. I am a married man and I have a wife whom I love so much. You're the sister of my best friend and we have been friends for long. I don't want to ruin this friendship after this incident."
" I am letting you go today seeing your drunken state but don't ever talk to my wife this way. I brought her here to introduce to you guys not to get her humiliated like this. "
" Today, you really disappointed me. " Liwie shook his head in disappointment as he couldn't believe that Xiuren did all this.
She used to be a very confident girl and seeing her in this poor state, everyone's heart ached.
Xiao Jun pursed his lips as he watched everything from the side. He frowned seeing the heartbroken expressions on Xiuren's face.
' This girl… ' he sighed as his heart ached seeing her in this miserable condition. For some reason he can understand the pain she was in.
It's not easy to be in one sided love for so long. He was experiencing the same pain as her at this moment.
He clenched his hands into a fist as he saw the tears trickling down from the girl's face. Her makeup has been ruined long ago.
" Disappointed? Hah. That's really heartless of you Liwei." Bai Xiuren pursed her lips as she tried to control her tears.
When she heard his words, she felt a strong pang in her heart. She started to get sobered up now.
All the effects of alcohol started to disappear after hearing his words. She realized in what state she was in.
She could see the upset expression on Liwei's face and was holding Xie Ming by her shoulders.
' Is it really time for me to let him go?' she felt bad for herself that after building her image for so long, she ruined everything in a few minutes.
She never knew before that she can be this vicious. Other than insulting Xie Ming, she insulted her late mother as well.
She suddenly realised why Bai Ju slapped her because just like Xie Ming, they don't have a mother either.
In fact, their mother died after giving birth to them. She cannot believe that she said such words in spite of anger.
Her throat choked as she started to regret her actions. Now everyone was looking at her with disgust and was thinking that she is some crazy who is after someone else's husband.
Some people also gathered in the lobby to see what's happening. She felt extremely embarrassed.
" I…. I am sorry. I.. know that I crossed my lines but I didn't mean to say those words. Xie Ming.. I still don't like you as Liwei's wife but it.. was wrong of me to involve your family in our argument. I am sorry." Bai Xiuren wiped her tears and said in a quivering voice.
It was the first time that she acted this way after being drunk. She always thought that she had a good tolerance and could hold her liquor well.
But it seems like alcohol brings out the viciousness out of her.
Xie Ming was stunned when she was Bai Xiuren apologizing. She thought that she was the same as Xiao Li, Yuan Lei and others.
But surprisingly she could see the sincerity in her eyes. This was truly unexpected.
She was too shocked to say anything at this moment. She just stared at Bai Xiuren in daze and was trying to read her mind.
Xiao Jun's lips unconsciously raised when he saw her apologize to Xie Ming
" That's my girl.." he murmured in a low voice while staring at Bai Xiuren in admiration.
He has always liked her. She liked Liwie but he liked her. He noticed that she never treated him more than a friend but he always cared for her.
He loved how strong she was. She doesn't like to act weakly. She is strong and hates to show her weaknesses to others.
He could see the regret and embarrassment on her face after getting humiliated. It's not easy for a girl who was pampered to core to get suddenly slapped in public.
Xie Ming caught the gentle expression in Xiao Jun's eyes when he was looking at Bai Xiuren.
….
Liwei looked at Bai Ju and nodded at him to take Bai Xiuren home. Her condition did not seem right.
Bai Ju nodded and was about to hold Bai Xiuren's hand who was on the verge of passing out. Her head was feeling heavy while her body was tilting to the side.
But before he could hold her, Xiao Jun walked in long strides and caught Xiuren who was about to fall on the ground.
He held her in his embrace and looked at the girl in his embrace.
Bai Ju stared at Xiao Jun in puzzle as he suddenly caught Xiuren.
" Ah, thanks. Otherwise she would have hit her head hard."
" It's fine. Let me carry her. You are quite drunk." Xiao Jun didn't let Bai Ju hold her and carry her in a princess style.
Bai Ju stared at him in confusion and murmured while pointing at him, " You're drunk as well. "
Xie Ming smiled the way Xiao Jun made his move and carried Bai Xiuren in front of her own brother.
' Seems like I don't need to worry about Xiuren anymore.'
