Chapter 416: I won’t let you suffer
Shi Runrun's heart felt as if it had been ripped out from her chest!
"Bai Xue, if you have any objections to me, you can always come to me! Don't mention that my parents are dead. Even if they were still alive, what happened between us has nothing to do with them! Speak with some respect, or I will never let you off even if I risk my life!"
"You!" Bai Xue stared blankly at the woman with red eyes in front of her. After she came to her senses, she was so angry that she subconsciously wanted to yell back.
The agent who had been observing the situation nearby was shocked when she saw this. She quickly ran over and grabbed Bai Xue.
"Alright, Xue'er, we're all acquaintances, there's no need to make a scene..."
He lowered his voice and whispered in Bai Xue's ear: "There are people watching around!"
These words reminded Bai Xue, and she immediately calmed down.
She subconsciously looked around. Although this was a high-end luxury store, there were other people there as well.
The commotion here had already attracted some people to look over. Bai Xue was startled and restrained her expression.
The agent breathed a sigh of relief and continued to smooth things over with Shi Runrun, saying, "Ms. Shi, Xue'er's personality is just like that. You should know that. She doesn't mean any harm. Besides, we all have to work together tomorrow, so it's better not to make things too awkward, don't you think?"
Before Shi Runrun could say anything, Bai Xue sneered, "That's right, I'm already looking forward to our cooperation tomorrow!"
Bai Xue's words were so meaningful that it was hard not to notice the malice in her tone!
Obviously, just as Shi Runrun had thought before, Bai Xue took on her script just to settle personal grudges.
I'm afraid that when the project starts, it won't go smoothly. Thinking of this, Shi Runrun felt unhappy and irritated.
But in the face of Bai Xue's protest, she pursed her lips tightly, her little face tense as she looked back without showing any weakness.
Seeing this, Bai Xue crossed her arms and called to her agent, "Let's go!"
After Shi Runrun watched Bai Xue leave, Xiao Shujing just came out of the fitting room. She heard everything that was said just now and was so angry that she wanted to run up and grab Bai Xue.
"This vicious woman, I'll teach her a lesson!"
Shi Runrun's eyes jumped in fright, and she quickly reached out to grab the other person, saying helplessly and amusedly, "Auntie, forget it."
Xiao Shujing was unwilling to accept this. She made a "Pooh" sound and squeezed Shi Runrun's hand. She comforted him distressedly, "Runrun, ignore her! This woman is just sour grapes. She's jealous of you, so she's here to cause trouble for you. Humph, she's an actress after all. She's better at pretending than others. She pretends to be weak and pitiful in front of outsiders, but her true face is actually disgusting!"
Shi Runrun still shook her head and tried to comfort the other party: "Auntie is right, that's why we should not bother with such people. It's not worth bothering with a mad dog."
Now that her parents are gone, there are only a handful of people who treat her well.
She didn't want those close to her to be hurt in any way because of her!
Xiao Shujing burst out laughing at her words: "Runrun is right! Let's not bother with a mad dog! Let's go, continue shopping!"
Shi Runrun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiao Shujing was no longer obsessed with settling the score with Bai Xue. He smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay."
During the rest of the trip, Shi Runrun was in a bad mood. Xiao Shujing could see it and could only sigh with heartache, but said nothing more and sent Shi Runrun back to the villa.
When Xiao Shujing was about to leave, she happened to see Xiao Xuezheng's car driving into the yard.
Xiao Shujing simply snorted coldly, crossed her arms, stood at the door and stared at the man getting out of the car.
"aunt?"
When Xiao Xue Zheng saw Xiao Shujing, his eyes flashed slightly behind his gold-rimmed glasses.
"Um."
Xiao Shujing glanced at him and responded unhappily.
Xiao Xuezheng put one hand in his pocket and pushed the frame of his glasses on his nose with one finger. His voice was hoarse with a hint of gentle smile: "What's wrong, aunt? Who made you unhappy?"
Xiao Shujing immediately became excited, loosened her hands and waved them, "Who else could it be? No one can mess with me except that woman!"
With her big reaction, Xiao Xue Zheng knew who it was without him having to say anything.
He frowned slightly, "What's going on?"
Xiao Shujing snorted coldly, staring at him unkindly. "You don't know yet, do you? Today, Runrun and I went shopping at the mall and ran into that woman Bai Xue! Do you know what she said to Runrun?"
She didn't care what Xiao Xuezhen thought, and just repeated what Bai Xue had said at that time, adding fuel to the fire.
Hearing this, Xiao Xuezheng's face darkened. After listening to this, he subconsciously frowned and rejected it, "She can't possibly say that!"
Then, he looked at the elder in front of him, with a helpless tone: "Aunt, I know you don't like Xue'er, but I know what kind of person Xue'er is. She would never say such a thing."
Xiao Shujing's eyebrows suddenly raised high, and she was very angry, "Xiao Xuezheng, what do you mean!"
She patted Xiao Xuezheng's chest. "What's the matter? From what you said, it seems that I hated her, so I deliberately made up this lie in front of you to discredit her?! Xiao Xuezheng, are you still a member of the Xiao family? I'm your aunt, and you would rather believe that woman than your aunt?!"
"Auntie, that's not what I meant..."
"Enough! I think that's what you mean!" Xiao Shujing's face was as dark as water. "Xiao Xuezheng, can you please look at your heart clearly? After all these years, who do you like? Don't you know it yourself? If you don't know, then figure it out quickly. Don't play two girls at the same time and make so many messes!"
After saying this, Xiao Shujing walked away with a dark face.
Xiao Xue Zheng frowned, thinking about his aunt's last words, and his thin lips were pressed into a line.
Who does he like?
"Xiao Xuezheng..."
Shi Runrun's weak voice came from behind.
Xiao Xuezheng turned around and saw Shi Runrun, who had changed into home clothes, walking towards him. "When did you come back? What are you doing standing here..."
Xiao Xuezheng pursed his lips, his deep eyes darkening even more behind his gold-rimmed glasses. He said in a low voice, "I just came back and met my aunt and talked for a while."
"Okay." Shi Runrun glanced at the door, feeling a little annoyed. "My aunt just sent me back, and I forgot to invite her to dinner."
"Have you eaten? I'll go cook." Shi Runrun looked up at the man again, her eyes clear like a little deer.
Throughout the whole process, she never told him about what happened today.
Xiao Xuezheng put his hands in his trouser pockets. Thinking of what his aunt had just said, he suddenly called out her name: "Runrun."
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Did you meet Shirayuki today?"
Shi Runrun was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
She smiled, somewhat helplessly, "Did my aunt tell you?"
"Yeah." Xiao Xuezheng nodded.
Then she said calmly: "Miss Bai and I just met by chance...Auntie is also worried about me, so she may be overthinking it, you don't have to worry."
After a pause, she thought about what Bai Xue said today. Finally, Shi Runrun bit her lip and looked directly into Xiao Xuezheng's calm eyes. "Don't worry, if there is anything, I will tell you the first time."
The man didn't respond. Shi Runrun shook his head and turned to go into the house.
Xiao Xue Zheng's eyes darkened for a moment, and he suddenly reached out and hugged the petite woman in his arms.
Shi Runrun was caught off guard and was stunned for a moment.
After she came to her senses, she heard the man's deep voice, and he assured her seriously in her ear, "I won't let you suffer any injustice... Wait a little longer, I will handle these relationships as soon as possible."
