This was the first time Jiang Tian had spoken so sharply.
After saying that, she dragged Yun Jing back to the coffee shop.
She practically ripped off Cheng Xiuyuan's face.
His face turned pale and then flushed.
No one dares to say that about him.
He has lived for over twenty years, and all he hears around him are compliments.
After all, given their family background, who would risk offending a wealthy family by talking nonsense to him?
This was the first time Cheng Xiuyuan had been scolded without any mercy.
It's like being doused with a bucket of cold water in the dead of winter.
He finally realized that Jiang Tian really hated him.
This dislike didn't stem from Duan Muqing and Shen Qingshu, but from a dislike of him as a person.
Cheng Xiuyuan's fingers twitched slightly, his heart aching.
For a privileged individual, facing someone's dislike is a very difficult thing.
For the first time, Cheng Xiuyuan realized that Jiang Tian was not what he had imagined.
The coffee shop wasn't far from him, but Cheng Xiuyuan no longer had the courage to walk there.
Jiang Tian's words were like needles, piercing his heart.
On the other side, after Jiang Tian pulled Yun Jing back to the shop, Yun Jing quickly poured her a glass of lemonade.
He could tell that Jiang Tian was genuinely angry.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have said so much.
"Calm down. Those kinds of people are always self-centered. They don't consider your joys and sorrows. Instead, they feel that whatever they give you is a gift to you."
Yun Jing gently comforted Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian smiled, seemingly not so angry. She took the lemonade, took a sip, and then said, "I don't want to be so angry either, but that kid really stepped on all my sore spots. If I don't scold him, he'll keep nagging me."
Yun Jing knew very well that Cheng Xiuyuan was that kind of person.
If he fails to achieve his goal, he might resort to any means necessary against Jiang Tian.
It's like a piece of chewy candy; once it's stuck on, it's very difficult to remove.
Fortunately, Jiang Tian scolded him, and at least Cheng Xiuyuan, at his age, still had a strong sense of self-respect, so he wouldn't easily come to her door again.
Yun Jing understood the intention, but that didn't mean he didn't feel sorry for Jiang Tian.
If he has a high enough status, and if he is not seen as a gigolo by others, then he can protect Jiang Tian and keep her from a lot of harassment.
He didn't say anything.
He needs to think about what he can do to improve his status as quickly as possible.
This can't go on any longer.
Every time Jiang Tian was wronged, he would feel disgusted with himself.
If he had any ability, he wouldn't have been limited to being a bystander.
Jiang Tian's recent tirade had an effect; Cheng Xiuyuan indeed stopped bothering her.
Duan Muqing was still hospitalized, and Cheng Xiuyuan didn't dare to see him. Jiang Tian's words brought him to deep reflection.
For a moment, Cheng Xiuyuan didn't know where to go.
The Duan family was in chaos because of Duan Muqing's hospitalization, and Cheng Xiuyuan wouldn't choose this critical moment to bother them.
He settled into his apartment.
Cheng Xiuyuan certainly didn't lack material resources.
Even if the couple treated him badly, he was still their child, and he would naturally receive what he was entitled to.
The sentence that has been most deeply on Cheng Xiuyuan's mind these days is actually Jiang Tian's comment that he is a pitiful wretch who lacks love.
Having lived for so many years, no one has ever seen him so clearly.
Cheng Xiuyuan laughed self-deprecatingly; he really was a pathetic wretch.
He never received love from his parents, and he didn't even dare to get close to the people he liked. He was so humble that he created opportunities for others.
What else could it be but a lack of love?
Cheng Xiuyuan slept in his house for a day and a night in a daze, and then received a call from Shen Qingshu.
Cheng Xiuyuan would normally be overjoyed to receive her call.
But he was so badly hurt by Jiang Tian that he was even a little delirious.
He stared at the phone screen for a long time before finally answering: "Hello?"
