Chapter 226 Extra Chapter 2 (Xiang x Xiao)
It was fine at first. Mei Yu and Xiao Feng had only been together for a short time, and on the surface she still maintained the reserve, thoughtfulness and gentleness that a girlfriend should have.
She knew that Xiao Feng respected Xiang Mingjue very much, so she was always extra polite when talking to Xiang Mingjue.
Even if Xiang Mingjue occasionally made a joke or teased her, even if Mei Yu felt uncomfortable and her cheeks turned red, she would not say a word.
She didn't dare to say a word back, but when something happened she would just snuggle into Xiao Feng's arms, with tears in her eyes or a look of grievance on her face.
Mei Yu is certainly not stupid, she is very smart.
Xiao Feng is well-known for protecting his shortcomings. After all, Xiang Mingjue is a living example of this.
When Xiang Mingjue first climbed the A-shaped tower of hearts as the King of Hearts, he had only gained fame and had not yet established his own authority.
At that time, Xiao Feng protected him so well that there were many voices of doubt and dissatisfaction from the public.
This is the rule of the game in this world: the strong win and the weak perish.
At that time, the struggle for the throne player position was intensified under the leadership of Jiang Hanyu, and even reached a point where it was out of control.
Although Xiang Mingjue avoided that person's limelight, he gradually came to prominence after Jiang Hanyu ascended the Spade King throne.
But there is the big devil Spade King in front and the flower umbrella Spade Queen behind, and one wave of troubles comes after another.
There were so many tough guys during that period that even the throne players didn't dare to underestimate any capable person at the maximum level.
Who knows when they will be replaced by it.
That was the most frustrating era for throne players, and also the era when max-level talents were most rampant.
Even for the powerful Jiang Hanyu, after he sat on the throne of Spade King, there were still people who were reckless and wanted to make moves.
What's more, Xiang Mingjue is a King who grew up under the protection of Jack.
There are too many people who look down on him, and both capable and incompetent people dare to step on him or make a few comments about him.
Xiang Mingjue never cared unless the person really danced in front of him.
But Xiao Feng was not as magnanimous and forgiving as him. As long as anyone dared to say something bad about Xiang Mingjue in front of him, that person would be in trouble today.
Xiao Feng doesn't like to use violence, but once he does, he looks like a devil crawling out of hell, which is very scary.
He showed no reason for favoritism or protection, and gave everything to Xiang Mingjue without a trace of reservation.
But now, Mei Yu appeared. She only needed to act coquettishly in a low voice, or just stand there quietly with her arm around Xiao Feng's arm, and she could divert most of Xiao Feng's attention.
Xiang Mingjue watched all this happen silently, and for the first time he felt like an outsider.
If he has never been favored by anyone, he won't care about the so-called loss.
But the fact that he had once obtained it and the feeling of disparity after losing it now is a fact that he cannot argue with.
Xiao Feng would not have a quarrel with Xiang Mingjue over such a small matter, even though that person was his girlfriend Mei Yu.
But if this happens too many times, there will definitely be a gap between the two of them.
How could Xiang Mingjue not know? Of course he knew.
He could only choose to retreat. Between not making Xiao Feng angry and disgusting Mei Yu, he had no choice but to choose the former.
Although he seemed very passive, Xiang Ming actually did not feel very determined.
He showed weakness only because he didn't want Xiao Feng to be in a difficult position between the two of them.
But Mei Yu obviously did not realize this. As Xiang Mingjue gave in without any bottom line, she felt more and more that in this home of three, Xiao Feng was the master who had the final say.
The King of Hearts is just a title, but in reality he is just a poor guy who relies on his Jack to survive.
If she could get all of Xiao Feng's love, would the honor and status that the King of Hearts had also be within her reach?
When a person starts to give in and lowers his bottom line every time, what can he get in return?
The other party's pity or the last bit of kindness? No, it will only make the other party escalate and push further.
If Xiao Feng was not there that night, Mei Yu would not leave any food for Xiang Mingjue.
She would rather throw most of the food into the trash and waste it than let Xiang Mingjue have a bite.
Although Xiang Mingjue was the owner of these ingredients, he was not qualified to decide whether to keep or go.
When the two were alone, Mei Yu didn't even want to say a word to him, and her eyes were filled with disgust and coldness.
Whenever Xiang Mingjue wanted to talk to her, nine times out of ten, his response was the sound of a door slamming rudely.
Although these are not pleasant experiences, but... they are interesting, aren't they?
Xiang Mingjue looked at Mei Yu quietly, condoning any arrogant or even provocative behavior of hers.
This made Mei Yu have an even more absurd idea: could it be that Xiang Mingjue was also interested in her?
Otherwise, why would he resist? Is he really a loser who can only rely on Xiao Feng?
Mei Yu hates Xiang Mingjue very much, and she is surprised that even Xiao Feng, a straight man, can notice it a little bit.
She used the excuse of gender differences to not allow Xiang Mingjue to use the bathroom at home, so he could only use the bathroom in his own room.
Even though the reason was so far-fetched, even Xiao Feng felt that she had gone too far.
But Xiang Mingjue smiled and waved his hand, saying that he could understand Mei Yu's thoughts and it was indeed not very convenient.
In this way, Xiao Feng could not say anything more, but Mei Yu still felt aggrieved, and it took Xiao Feng a long time to coax her.
However, this is not the end of the story, it is just the beginning.
That night, Xiao Feng was away on business. After Xiang Mingjue broke the toilet in his room, he leisurely walked into the living room in his slippers.
There was a sound of water splashing in the bathroom. Mei Yu was taking a shower.
Xiang Mingjue waited quietly outside for a while. After Mei Yu came out wrapped in a bathrobe, he stood up.
Although Xiang Mingjue is thin, he is still a tall man after all, especially when he stares at Mei Yu intently and tries to get closer.
At that moment, Mei Yu was obviously panicked, but she still pretended to be calm and said:
"What are you doing? Don't you know I'm taking a shower? Why did you come out of the room?"
When Xiang Mingjue heard this, he felt funny. Who did she think she was?
In fact, he did say that, but his voice was particularly gentle:
"Meiyu, are you suffering from paranoia?"
Although Xiang Mingjue's words were full of ridicule and sarcasm, Mei Yu did not hear it.
Because after that, Xiang Mingjue grabbed her arm.
Mei Yu screamed and tried to break free with her face flushed red. In fact, she did break free once she struggled.
Xiang Mingjue looked at the woman in surprise, unable to understand why she had such a big reaction. He just wanted Mei Yu to move aside.
"Don't touch me! I'm your brother's girlfriend! What are you doing! You're such a slut!"
Mei Yu pushed Xiang Mingjue hard and shouted angrily.
Xiang Mingjue was a little confused by her scolding, then he pulled the corner of his mouth and said nonchalantly:
"A girlfriend isn't a wife. What are you talking about? Are you calling me a slut?"
Mei Yu was shaking with anger, her almond-shaped eyes widened into a circle, and she did look a bit cute.
So, Xiang Mingjue smiled happily and said, "Yes, I am a lowly person."
Afterwards, he entered the bathroom where Mei Yu had just finished bathing, completely ignoring the curses Mei Yu was cursing outside.
There are too many of Mei Yu's personal belongings placed in this bathroom, all in pairs.
The little bit of joy in Xiang Ming's determination was quickly shattered by what he saw before him.
He walked out of the bathroom with an expressionless face, ignoring Mei Yu who was still pestering him, and went back to his room.
He knew that when Xiao Feng came back, there would inevitably be another farce.
Mei Yu's accusation made Xiao Feng burst into tears. He smoked in silence, occasionally looking up at her. Xiang Mingjue saw the silent questioning in her eyes.
In just a moment, he suddenly lost all desire to defend himself.
Just like a rotten whale, let it rot.
Xiang Mingjue's sudden indifference immediately made Xiao Feng confused.
On one side was his girlfriend's crying, and on the other side was his best friend's cold eyes. Xiao Feng was confused and extremely irritated.
Xiao Feng had no way to deal with this matter because this was the first time Xiang Mingjue refused to communicate with him like this.
Mei Yu's demands and dissatisfaction were not resolved, so she made a bold decision on her own.
She changed the lock on the bathroom door at home.
Such a decision was something that neither Xiao Feng nor Xiang Mingjue had expected.
When Xiang Mingjue found out, Mei Yu was still shouting at him confidently.
He just smiled and said, "It's his own fault.
Soon Xiao Feng also found out about this matter, and not surprisingly, he and Mei Yu had the biggest quarrel in history.
"Meiyu, are you crazy? Are you crazy? Do you still know whose home this is?!"
"I know! But so what?! Xiao Feng, you are actually yelling at me for an outsider. You are really not a human being..."
"Outsiders? Who are you talking about? Meiyu, let me tell you, this is Xiang Mingjue's house. You and I are complete outsiders!"
"Is it because Brother Jue has been too nice to you lately? That's why you dare to act so arrogantly and presumptuously here! Who do you think you are?"
"Who am I? Who am I? I'm your girlfriend, Xiao Feng! Your future wife! It's true that this house belongs to Xiang Mingjue, but I just want to protect myself. What have I done wrong?"
"Xiao Feng, have you really considered me? There's another man at home. Do you know how scared I was when I came out of the shower that night and found Xiang Mingjue standing outside?"
"You don't care about me at all, and you don't love me at all, right? Otherwise you wouldn't be arguing with me here. To put it bluntly, in your heart, I'm not as important as that loser, right?"
Xiao Feng was silent, and suddenly asked in a hoarse voice:
"Who are you calling a wimp?"
"Who else can I blame? I called Xiang Mingjue a loser!" Mei Yu laughed in anger. "Why, you still want to defend him?"
"Without you, he's nothing. He's just a piece of trash, a piece of trash who will die in the poker field sooner or later!"
"Meiyu, don't push me." Xiao Feng was trying his best to restrain himself, "You keep calling him a piece of trash, but he once saved my life!"
"He did save you, but Xiao Feng!" Mei Yu cried, "You haven't done enough for him. I beg you, please wake up!"
"I'm the one who truly loves you! Xiang Mingjue is just using you! If you're no longer useful, will he still want you?"
A long silence followed her, and Mei Yu asked the final question:
"If you have to choose between me and Xiang Mingjue, who would you choose?"
Xiang Mingjue didn't continue listening. He just looked back and saw his lonely shadow reflected on the lonely and dim floor.
He opened his lips slightly, wanting to push the door open and say something, but in the end he swallowed it back.
Can he say it? And how should he say it?
He said, I want it, I'm not using him, you are.
You don't love him, your love is too selfish, I am the one who loves him.
But he was afraid that Xiao Feng would ask, what is it?
How should he answer?
Do I have to ask him to say, I am the one who loves you the most?
No, he doesn't want it.
The author has something to say:
There should be another chapter about the two of them, which will be written after the main story is finished. I have to continue writing the plot.
