Chapter 593: Chapter 592 Hesitation
After lunch, Liu Zheng drove Lin Ruoyun to a French restaurant, where the two sat by the window.
After ordering, Lin Ruoyun looked up at Liu Zheng, "Is your injury better now?"
"Thank you for your concern, it’s already healed, but I still have to wait a while before I can walk properly, sorry about that."
"It’s nothing, I’m free every day anyway."
Lin Ruoyun waved her hand dismissively.
"That’s good to hear. Oh, by the way, I’ve bought a few new sets of equipment and will take you to pick some out later, and let’s also buy a pair of sneakers."
Lin Ruoyun was startled.
She had thought Liu Zheng wanted to ask her out just to have fun together.
"Sure!"
Lin Ruoyun nodded her head.
"See you later then."
Liu Zheng smiled at her and got up from his seat.
Lin Ruoyun sat there, sipping her milk tea with her head down.
She was pondering what to say to Liu Zheng later without making it too awkward.
Right at this moment, she suddenly heard a familiar voice, "Ruoyun sis, how come you’re at this restaurant too?"
"Ah?"
Lin Ruoyun looked up to see the woman standing in front of the table, and was stunned.
Lin Ruoyun stared at the woman in front of her, hardly able to describe her expression at this moment.
This was Lin Ruoyun’s college classmate, Li Ruoyun.
Back when Lin Ruoyun was in her junior year of college, she had pursued Chen Minghao.
At that time, Lin Ruoyun found Li Ruoyun very impressive.
Because Li Ruoyun was beautiful, with sweet features and a lively personality.
However, Lin Ruoyun had never imagined that her past self would be pursued by a woman who had once chased after her boyfriend, and even succeeded in pushing her out of the throne of the class belle.
When Lin Ruoyun realized she had lost to Li Ruoyun in the competition for the title of class belle, she was very angry.
So, she secretly followed Li Ruoyun for a while and eventually caught her in a compromising situation.
"Ruoyun, you haven’t forgotten that we were good friends in high school, have you? I still remember one time you and your boyfriend went out for hot pot, and Chen Ming saw you. He cursed at you on the spot and almost hit your boyfriend. Later on, Chen Ming broke up with you."
"Ruoyun, how have you turned into what you are now? You used to be so kind. Why have you become... sigh, I really don’t know what to say."
Li Ruoyun looked at Lin Ruoyun with an expression of pain and sorrow on her face.
After hearing Li Ruoyun’s words, Lin Ruoyun sneered.
"Heh..."
A bitter smile appeared on her face.
"Li Ruoyun, what do you mean by this? Are you saying I used to be unkind, and it was Chen Ming who used to bully others with his power?"
A mocking smile graced Lin Ruoyun’s face.
After hearing this, Li Ruoyun gave a faint smile.
"Yeah!"
"You dare to admit it?!"
Lin Ruoyun’s eyes widened in outrage.
"Why wouldn’t I admit it? Did I say something wrong? I never understood how Chen Ming could fancy you. What’s so good about you? Aren’t you just pretty? Just look at how you’re dressed now, so unsophisticated, even your makeup comes from cheap brands. How could you match up to Brother Minghao?"
Lin Ruoyun looked shocked.
"No, that’s not it, I don’t use cheap makeup, I use high-end skincare products!"
"Hmph! I don’t believe they’re more expensive than Brother Minghao’s."
Lin Ruoyun ground her teeth in anger.
"You..."
Lin Ruoyun was left speechless by Li Ruoyun’s taunting.
Li Ruoyun smiled smugly and continued to provoke Lin Ruoyun, "Sister Ruoyun, I advise you to leave Minghao sooner rather than later. After all, he’s my boyfriend. If you keep this up, you’re only going to make things more awkward between us."
"You..."
Lin Ruoyun pointed at Li Ruoyun, a vein popping out on her forehead.
"Don’t think I don’t know that when you and Chen Minghao were dating, you slept with someone else. You sluts..."
Slap!
A loud smack landed on Li Ruoyun’s right cheek. Lin Ruoyun had hit her hard, and blood was oozing from the corner of her mouth.
Her eyes were filled with hatred, as if she wished she could swallow her whole.
Li Ruoyun covered her face, looking at Lin Ruoyun in disbelief.
"You dare to hit me?"
"I did, and what are you going to do about it? What do you think you are, showing off in front of me? Back then, you seduced my boyfriend, and now you have the nerve to come after my fiancé. I must teach you a lesson today!"
"You’re crazy!"
Li Ruoyun, furious, raised her hand to slap Lin Ruoyun.
But before she could touch Lin Ruoyun’s face, Lin Ruoyun had already dodged away.
"You dare to dodge?"
"Why wouldn’t I dare to dodge?"
"You... I’ll beat you to death!"
As she spoke, Li Ruoyun swung her hand to slap Lin Ruoyun again, but before it could land, Lin Ruoyun had already grabbed her arm.
"Let go of me!" Li Ruoyun screamed.
Lin Ruoyun was much stronger than Li Ruoyun, and despite her struggles, it was to no avail.
In the end, her arm was pinched red by Lin Ruoyun.
"Let go of me! Lin Ruoyun, if you don’t let go, I’ll tell my parents that you seduced my fiancé!"
"Hahaha..." Lin Ruoyun suddenly burst into laughter. "You are so naive. Back in the day, you took advantage of your daddy’s wealth to seduce Chen Minghao over and over again, and you even got me kicked out of school. And now you’re telling my parents? Are you about to say you were forced out of school by me, or that you got caught seducing my fiancé by me? How vicious of you! You’re just afraid of your dad finding out and blaming you, aren’t you? You mistress, you kind of woman should roll as far away as possible."
Lin Ruoyun’s words left Li Ruoyun speechless, but soon she calmed down, "Heh, Lin Ruoyun, are you threatening me?"
Lin Ruoyun sneered, "Take it however you want. If you’d like to think I’m threatening you, then go ahead and think that."
Having said that, Lin Ruoyun let go of Li Ruoyun’s arm and turned to walk towards the door.
Her silhouette was resolute and proud, without any hint of attachment to this world.
"Ruoyun!"
Li Ruoyun suddenly called out.
Lin Ruoyun turned around.
"Lin Ruoyun, I don’t care how embarrassing your situation is now, but I’m warning you, don’t harass my boyfriend anymore. Otherwise, even if my family goes bankrupt, I’ll make you pay!"
Lin Ruoyun’s gaze grew colder.
"You’re nothing but a dog Chen Minghao keeps outside, what right do you have to tell me what to do?"
Upon hearing this, Li Ruoyun was so angry that she trembled all over.
"Lin Ruoyun, you’ve gone too far! How dare you call me a dog? I’m telling you, I’m going to stick with Chen Ming, I’m going to marry him, and I want to see what you can do about it!"
Lin Ruoyun snorted coldly.
"Suit yourself, but don’t blame me for being heartless when the time comes!"
After saying that, Lin Ruoyun turned around and walked away.
Li Ruoyun trembled with rage.
"Lin Ruoyun, stop right there! If you dare to leave, I will go to your house and tear it down. I will let everyone know that you’re a mistress, a shameless mistress. I can’t stand your arrogant attitude, and I want you to taste the feeling of being spat on and scorned."
"Hmph!" Lin Ruoyun’s lips curled into a sneer, "Li Ruoyun, who do you think you are? You think I’m afraid of you? I’ll go right now and tell my parents, expose your little fox tail for good, and make you lose face in front of everyone."
"You..."
