Chapter 157: Chapter 0157: I Give You a Chance for Revenge
The CEO of Huangtu Corporation, a rising star in the commercial landscape of Jiangzhong City, a goddess in the hearts of countless men, and an idol among women, at this moment, cried like a helpless child!
Everyone wears a mask, and for someone like Qiu Ruoxi, no matter how tired, she insists on maintaining an air of superiority.
Because that is fundamentally what others envy and what makes survival meaningful.
But in that moment, she removed all disguise and directly took off the cold mask she had always worn, revealing her truest self.
If this scene had been witnessed by financial reporters, it would certainly have made the front page headlines of major financial newspapers tomorrow. n𝚘𝚟pub.𝚌o𝚖
Qiu Ruoxi had already suffered a bellyful of grievances today, but when she returned home, Qin Rumeng was still there, and her own father scolded her without asking for the reasons, even demanding she kneel down and apologize to Qin Rumeng.
In Qiu Ruoxi’s heart, she blamed Ye Xunhuan for her current misery, thinking that if he had told her about Qin Rumeng’s identity, she wouldn’t have argued with Qin Rumeng. All she wanted was to speak her mind, after all, Qin was an elder.
But Ye Xunhuan had not done so, and now he had brought Qin Rumeng back to the villa. Wasn’t he intentionally making her look bad and getting her scolded?
"Honey, I..."
"Ye Xunhuan, I know you really dislike me. You want to humiliate me and haven’t found a chance, but now you have seen one, are you satisfied?" Qiu Ruoxi shouted hoarsely at Ye Xunhuan, "Your aunt has taken revenge for you, giving back all the mockery I aimed at you over the long time. Are you satisfied now, happy now?"
"Is it because you find it very satisfying to see me criticized mercilessly in the company, or because you enjoy seeing my dad scold me when I get home!"
"Are you thinking, ’Qiu Ruoxi, Qiu Ruoxi, you’ve finally got your comeuppance, you know my power now...’"
Disgraced at the company, and now criticized at home, her heart filled with grievances, she needed to vent, now facing Ye Xunhuan, she spoke her mind unrestrainedly.
"Honey, I didn’t mean that!"
"You didn’t mean that?" Qiu Ruoxi’s face showed a miserable smile: "Ye Xunhuan, don’t you think you’re very hypocritical?"
"I..."
Ye Xunhuan had just started to speak when Qiu Ruoxi cut him off, "If you didn’t mean it, why didn’t you tell me she was your aunt, if you really didn’t mean it, why didn’t you stop her when she was mocking me..."
Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s words, Ye Xunhuan’s face somewhat darkened.
Indeed, if he had truly been determined to persuade Qin Rumeng, she wouldn’t have ignored his words, even if Qin Rumeng disliked Qiu Ruoxi, she would not have treated her so.
After all, Qiu Ruoxi was technically his wife, and saving face was important.
At the time, however, Ye Xunhuan had not thought so much, preferring to wait and see, besides, Qin Rumeng was not really going to harm Qiu Ruoxi.
But now he realized that he had overlooked one thing.
Qiu Ruoxi’s pride!
She had always been lavished with love, but now, after holding back her anger at the company, she had returned home only to face rebuke from her father.
"Sorry, I didn’t consider it thoroughly." Ye Xunhuan said with some regret.
"Ye Xunhuan, you are a wealthy young master, a word from you could indeed make me bow, a word from you could indeed deal a devastating blow to Huangtu Corporation, a word from you could indeed make countless people flatter and look up to you, but do you find it amusing to humiliate others this way?"
Ye Xunhuan felt guilty and didn’t argue with Qiu Ruoxi, but held on to her without letting go, allowing Qiu Ruoxi to vent.
He knew that if Qiu Ruoxi didn’t vent today, she might have suffocated.
After a long while, Qiu Ruoxi finally stopped.
Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath and looked at Qiu Ruoxi, saying, "I didn’t mean to humiliate you, nor did I intend to take revenge on you!"
"What do you have that’s worth my revenge?" Ye Xunhuan asked indifferently, "Moreover, I didn’t know my aunt would suddenly come to the company. I was completely unprepared!"
"She came last night to bail me out!" Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath and said.
"The reason she treated you that way might be because she found out about our divorce last time. She was upset, so she made troubles out of nothing."
"But she is my aunt, even if she is wrong, what can I do?" Ye Xunhuan said helplessly, "I scold her, but she is an elder, isn’t she?"
Qiu Ruoxi gave a miserable smile, "She came yesterday? But why didn’t you tell me?"
"I was going to tell you, but did you give me a chance?" Ye Xunhuan asked softly, "I went to your office, and before we could talk, you told me to get out!"
"How the hell was I supposed to tell you!"
Qiu Ruoxi opened her mouth but didn’t utter a word.
Indeed, Ye Xunhuan was chased away by her, but was that her fault?
If it weren’t for this jerk being so mouthy, would she have acted like that?
"If you insist on thinking that I am colluding with my aunt to humiliate you, then I have nothing else to say," Ye Xunhuan said earnestly, "Okay, now I’ve said everything that needed to be said!"
"I will go and explain to my parents, and I will settle things with my aunt," Ye Xunhuan stated firmly, "If you think my aunt hurt you, then I will make her leave immediately."
Ye Xunhuan played a tactical retreat with Qiu Ruoxi.
At that moment, Qiu Ruoxi was in a very bad mood. If she were faced with a domineering attitude, it would surely deepen the conflict indefinitely.
So he could only play a tactical retreat, letting Qiu Ruoxi choose for herself. If you’re upset, I will make Qin Rumeng leave, but if you decide to turn the page on this issue, I will take care of the rest!
Just then, Qin Rumeng suddenly rushed over from not far away. Seeing Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi together, Qin Rumeng sighed with relief, quickly walked up, and said sarcastically, "Look, still crying, how old are you, don’t you know it’s embarrassing!"
"If this gets out, I don’t know how many people will laugh their heads off!"
"The president of the grand Huangtu Group is actually crying."
Qin Rumeng seemed deliberately to antagonize Qiu Ruoxi, directly confronting her as soon as she appeared.
"You..."
"Qiu Ruoxi, do you feel really indignant, do you dislike me so much?" Qin Rumeng said coldly, "I’ll give you a chance for revenge!"
