Chapter 14: Wretched Woman, You’ve Ruined My Inner Peace!
After Chu Fei left, Jiang Yunqi suddenly felt a wave of frustration. Ever since she was young, she had always been the belle of the class—if not the school—and the line of men pursuing her could stretch all the way to France. Even a casual post on Douyin would garner millions of likes from her fans.
Yet why, of all people, did that infuriating man look at her with such disdain? He even took the initiative to break off their engagement. Did she truly have no appeal to him whatsoever?
The more Jiang Yunqi dwelled on it, the more upset she became. Her full chest heaved as she sank into deep self-doubt.
It was just like in “Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils”—why did Kang Min hate Qiao Feng so much? Was it not because at the grand assembly, he alone did not fawn over her? Was that not infuriating? Of course it was—enough to remember for a lifetime!
As Jiang Yunqi was lost in these thoughts, her best friend Luo Man found her standing in place, making faces.
Luo Man hurried over and asked, “Qiqi, what’s wrong? That guy Chu Fei didn’t do anything to you, did he?”
“No, we just added each other on WeChat,” Jiang Yunqi replied weakly.
Luo Man chuckled, “Just as I expected. That guy only stepped in to teach Jiang Yangrong a lesson because he wanted your attention. But I didn’t think you’d actually let him add you on WeChat!”
Luo Man had long grown used to such scenarios. With Jiang Yunqi’s looks, it wasn’t just men—sometimes even Luo Man herself was moved. She had seen countless pick-up routines, but Chu Fei’s wild approach was a first.
But knowing Jiang Yunqi, even if they were WeChat friends, Chu Fei’s chance of winning her over was less than one in ten thousand. She might not even accept his request!
Jiang Yunqi said honestly, “I was the one who added him.”
Luo Man’s expression visibly shifted to shock. “You added him? That’s impossible…”
The idea of Jiang Yunqi taking the initiative to add a man on WeChat was as shocking to Luo Man as a knife in the backside—truly an eye-opener!
“And he hasn’t accepted yet,” Jiang Yunqi added, twisting the knife.
Luo Man was incredulous. “What… no, what’s his deal? Just because he’s good-looking?”
True, Chu Fei was handsome, but he wasn’t the first attractive man to approach Jiang Yunqi—she’d never even bothered with the others.
Thinking of how Chu Fei had protected her earlier, Jiang Yunqi sincerely said, “He really did stun me with his looks.”
“What!” Luo Man’s face contorted in shock. “He stunned you? With what—should I call the police? Did you clean yourself up?”
Jiang Yunqi rolled her eyes. “You have a dirty mind.”
“Ah, well…” Luo Man scratched her head. “I just got carried away. But don’t tell me you like this Chu Fei!”
“How could I? Not even a dog would fall in love these days!”
“Then why did you add him on WeChat?” Luo Man’s curiosity was insatiable.
“He’s probably the first guy to dare reject me. I’m just curious how he managed it. You know, Luo Man, no man has ever dared to turn me down!”
It was the truth. With Jiang Yunqi’s beauty, a single glance from her could make a crowd of men bare their hearts. She had never met one who dared say no.
After a long pause, Luo Man said, “I think he’s just playing hard to get. Qiqi, you mustn’t fall for his trick!”
Jiang Yunqi’s eyes widened in realization. “You mean he’s scheming?”
“Of course! With your looks, what man wouldn’t be moved? That has to be his ploy!” Luo Man said quickly.
Jiang Yunqi regained a bit of confidence. “So that’s it. Then I’ll ignore him—even if he accepts, I’ll absolutely never message him first!”
Luo Man nodded emphatically. “Right, don’t talk to him!”
“Don’t worry. Even if I starve to death, die outside, or jump from here, I, Jiang Yunqi, will never say another word to him!”
“…”
After Luo Man escorted Jiang Yunqi back to the dormitory, Jiang Yangrong, now awake, arrived with a group of followers to ask Luo Man what had happened. Luo Man didn’t offer any details—she simply said, “Chu Fei… that man is unfathomable.”
Jiang Yangrong was left completely bewildered.
And so, the rumors at Longcheng University grew ever more bizarre.
“Young Master Jiang, what did Luo Man say?”
“She said Chu Fei is inscrutable!”
“What? Chu Fei’s involved with models?”
“Spread the word, Chu Fei keeps a house full of models!”
“Did you hear? Chu Fei used to work as a model at a KTV!”
“…”
Unaware that his reputation was becoming increasingly outrageous, Chu Fei had already returned to the villa.
He had planned to revisit old memories with Shen Miaoyu while the family was out.
But before he could even voice his invitation, he bumped right into Shen Miaoyu at the doorway.
Wearing a fitted skirt, Shen Miaoyu fell to the floor, her phone tumbling not far away. One of her black high heels had slipped off, revealing slender, alluring legs in sheer stockings, parted ever so slightly.
Chu Fei’s eyes lit up.
A wealthy family indeed!
He could barely contain the urge to take her then and there.
Sensing his gaze, Shen Miaoyu quickly pressed her legs together and rose to her feet, protesting, “Keep staring and I’ll gouge your eyes out!”
“It’s nothing I haven’t seen before,” Chu Fei replied carelessly.
Shen Miaoyu didn’t have time to bicker with him. She picked up her high heel, slid her stocking-clad foot inside, and the delicate curve from her calf to her ankle traced a nearly perfect, seductive line.
Chu Fei thought to himself—troublesome woman, always testing my resolve!
Once her shoes were on, Shen Miaoyu turned to leave. “I have to go out!”
But Chu Fei grabbed her back. “Who lights a fire and doesn’t put it out?”
“What are you talking about? I really have something urgent!”
Shen Miaoyu tried to push him away, but he caught her around the waist.
Chu Fei lowered his voice, “What could be more urgent than me? I’m about to take my pants off.”
She saw the desire burning in his eyes and knew that if she didn’t resist, she’d have a miserable day ahead.
She could only protest, “I really have something urgent—can you put me down first?”
“Then give your little brother a kiss.”
“You… shameless!” Shen Miaoyu cursed.
“There are even more shameless things I could do—want to see?” Chu Fei carried her toward the bedroom.
Knowing that if she let him have his way, she wouldn’t be free for at least five or six hours, Shen Miaoyu had no choice but to comply. She pecked his cheek and cried, “There, is that enough? Now let me go!”
“This isn’t what we agreed to,” Chu Fei said, tossing her onto the bed and lowering his gaze. “I’m very angry—the consequences will be serious.”
