"Self-awareness?" Ouyang Huanshi sneered, wiping his wrist with a handkerchief. "I didn't see that at all. You embarrassed me in front of everyone today. Even if you tried to pretend not to know me, your attitude was truly terrible. You're so ungrateful, and you even know the word 'self-awareness'."
"Well, it was a special situation. Who allowed you to push this innocent girl to the ground right in front of me and even beat her? Even if it was a passerby, it would be normal to be dissatisfied, let alone someone I know."
"What a stubborn person..." Ouyang Huanshi glared at her. When she tried to raise her hand again, Chu Shangli's simple movement reminded her of the numbness in her wrist. In the end, she could only snort in frustration, "But I still have to tell you—this is a rare act of kindness on my part. Qiu Feishuang is a bitch who's the same inside and out. It's not that I'm targeting her. If you meddle in her affairs, you'll only bring yourself bad luck."
"But you haven't been able to deal with me until now. Your fiancé even agreed to take me in for three days."
"That's exactly it..." Ouyang Huanshi tsk-tsk'd. "I hate to admit it, but I have to admit that you have a prettier face than the average bitch. Even with all the trickery, you still managed to break Brother Tianhe's sword and steal the show. But do you really think that just because you're special enough and caught someone's eye, you'll get a universal pass? That's absolutely impossible... There are more complicated reasons. Even Uncle Shuiqing, who has a bit of a quirk, wouldn't offend both the Ouyang and Zishu factions for the sake of so-called 'love.' And the wife of Zishu's family is a rational person. I'm afraid she would sternly refuse your request to be a concubine."
"So... you said I was stubborn, but you're the one who really can't listen. A concubine of the Gongyi family? Gongyi Tianhe's wife? I'm not interested. First of all, not to mention noble sentiments, it wouldn't be nice for me to interfere when someone has a fiancée—first of all, I can't handle the complicated affairs of the Gongyi family. But if I marry into the Gongyi family, I will definitely have to deal with those troublesome things. From this perspective, I admire you, Miss—you can face this future with such composure and not feel upset at all."
“…”
Ouyang Huanshi's face turned completely purple in an instant - uglier than at any time before.
Immediately, she chuckled, "From the way you talk, it's not as if you can't take the position, but rather that you don't want it. What on earth makes you so arrogant?"
"I'm not bragging, Miss Ouyang. If I really wanted to compete with you, you might not be able to defeat me. You'll soon find out. I'll make you lose with conviction, and even give you the prize. Compared to Gong Yi Tianhe, I'm more interested in the moment when a high-and-mighty person like you, Miss Ouyang Huanshi, has his pride crumble."
Chu Shangli brushed past Ouyang Huanshi's shoulder, not even bothering to look at her.
When Ouyang Huanshi wanted to turn around and grab Chu Shangli, he grabbed nothing——
When they arrived at the study door, Gong Yishui was already waiting there early in the morning.
Gongyi Shuiqing looked past Chu Shangli and obviously noticed Ouyang Huanshi, and smiled with pursed lips.
