Chapter 27 Full Power Activated
Fortunately, heaven saw through her and let her see the true colors of this scoundrel, so that she would never have to revolve around Shen Jiheng for the rest of her life.
Faced with Han Xi's sarcasm, Gu Hanxi used her child as a shield.
"Watch your mouth, or Ji Heng will not forgive you if you harm the fetus."
Han Xi laughed and said, "You're too sensitive. With a mentality like that, how can you be a mistress? I thought your skin was thicker than a city wall and impervious to swords and spears."
Zhuo Qingqian gave her two thumbs up. The once invincible lawyer Han had finally reverted to her sharp-tongued nature.
Gu Hanxi was so angry that her chest heaved. When did this woman become so sharp-tongued?
"You...you just wait."
Unable to argue with her, Gu Hanxi tossed the shopping card in her hand onto the counter and smugly ordered, "Wrap up all the jewelry in this row, then swipe the card."
The clerk at the counter nodded excitedly when she saw the exclusive card; this was a huge order. She quickly waved for her colleague to come and help.
"Please wait a moment, esteemed guest, we'll wrap it up for you right away."
Zhuo Qingqian retorted, "This Shen Jiheng is too much of a bully. You've been married for three years and all he's done is make you suffer. He's never given you a single gift, yet now he lets this woman go to luxury stores and spend money as she pleases."
Han Xi remained silent, still unable to understand.
Since Shen Jiheng loves this woman so much, why doesn't he marry her?
Gu Hanxi then said to the bodyguard, "Have the clothing stores we just tried on deliver them to my home in my size."
After speaking, she glanced sideways at the two of them, her smug look making Zhuo Qingqian grit her teeth in anger.
"Xi Xi, you can't let this go. This kind of woman deserves to be taught a lesson."
Han Xi showed no anger whatsoever; his calmness was frightening.
She walked to the counter, looked at the emerald necklace that was about to be wrapped up, and said, "Gu Hanxi, listen to me, I don't want to argue with you, but this necklace is for me."
Gu Hanxi smiled proudly and said, "Sorry, I just like to take other people's things. I find it very interesting."
Zhuo Qingqian was about to rush out and slap her twice when Han Xi stopped her.
Han Xi closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were sharp and cold, and her entire demeanor changed.
Are you sure you want this?
Gu Hanxi felt a little uneasy, but she still forced herself to answer, "Yes, I want everything here."
Han Xi nodded. Since she was so stubborn, then he wouldn't hold back.
She walked to the counter and said sternly, "Listen up, you're not allowed to swipe this shopping card for even a single penny."
The staff member looked puzzled and turned to Gu Hanxi for help.
Han Xi smiled and said, "There's no need to go see her. The owner of this exclusive shopping card, Shen Jiheng, is my husband. As his legal wife, I have the same right to use it as he does. She's just a mistress."
These words caused an uproar in the room, and all the strange looks were directed at Gu Hanxi, who had been so arrogant just moments before, making her feel utterly ashamed.
"This...this was given to me by Ji Heng, so I can use it."
“Read more books in your spare time. Having only a pretty face but no brains will only make you a laughing stock. As his first wife, I have the right to recover every penny he spent on you during our marriage.”
As Han Xi spoke, he walked up to the bodyguards and ordered, "You two should know who the madam is. Go and cancel all the things she bought right now, or I will take legal action to recover them."
The two bodyguards were also in a dilemma, but seeing that the lady had a formidable aura, they had no choice but to nod and do as she said.
Gu Hanxi stomped her feet in anger and shouted at the bodyguard who was about to take the things back.
"Don't touch my things, Han Xi, I'm not done with you yet."
Han Xi laughed happily, "If you're so capable, then get Shen Jiheng to marry you. That way, you'll have the same rights I have now. Otherwise, you'll just have to shut up."
Zhuo Qingqian was moved to tears and couldn't help but applaud her. This was the kind of best friend she should be like.
She hugged Han Xi like a little fangirl.
"Xi Xi, I've become your fan. It's so satisfying to tear apart those bastards."
Han Xi shrugged contentedly, picked up the exclusive shopping card, and waved it triumphantly at the furious person: "I'm in a good mood today, Qianqian, pick whatever you want, I'll pay."
She wanted Gu Hanxi to understand that it was never her fault for not fighting for it, but rather that Gu Hanxi had the ability to take it away.
Gu Hanxi was so angry that she trembled and immediately called Shen Jiheng to ask him to come over.
Turning her head, she heard Han Xi raise her voice and say, "Make the necklace I just picked out look nicer."
Just wait and see; she'll definitely take everything that belongs to Han Xi.
Shen Jiheng was handling business at the mall when he received Gu Hanxi's call and rushed over immediately.
Han Xi was about to leave with the jewelry when Gu Hanxi blocked the doorway, preventing her from leaving.
Han Xi scoffed, crossed her arms, and asked, "Is being a mistress not enough for you? You want to be a dog too?"
Gu Hanxi didn't react for a moment, so Zhuo Qingqian added, "Have you ever heard the saying 'A good dog doesn't block the way'?"
Gu Hanxi gritted her teeth, raised her head, and still wouldn't move aside; she was still waiting for someone.
Han Xi warned impatiently, "If you keep acting like this, don't blame me for being rude to you."
It's here!
Gu Hanxi had already spotted the figure rushing towards them. A wicked smile curled at the corner of her lips. She suddenly grabbed Han Xi's wrist and said provocatively, "So what if I don't let you leave?"
Han Xi's patience had been worn down by her. Angrily, she flung her hand away, intending only to shake off Gu Hanxi's hand, but unexpectedly, Gu Hanxi fell down with the force of the blow.
Before Han Xi could recover, a furious roar came from behind him.
"Han Xi, what are you doing!"
Han Xi was also stunned. She had only shaken her hand and hadn't pushed her. It was Gu Hanxi who pretended to fall down.
Gu Hanxi clutched her stomach and started crying. Upon seeing this, Shen Jiheng rushed forward and helped her up.
Han Xi had never seen him so anxious for anyone before; he gave all his favoritism to this woman.
"What happened? Are you alright? Is anything bothering you?"
Gu Hanxi weakly leaned into his arms. No matter what it meant to be a mistress, as long as everyone could see that she was the one who was loved, then Han Xi would be the loser.
Only the loser is the one who gets pointed at and ridiculed.
She wanted to return the humiliation Han Xi had just inflicted on her.
“Ji Heng, I just took your shopping card to buy some things, but I never expected to run into Han Xi. She snatched the card, returned all the things I bought, and even said she would sue me to return everything.”
Gu Hanxi cried as she spoke, her tearful appearance was incredibly heartbreaking.
After listening to her story, Shen Jiheng looked at Han Xi with a piercing gaze, as if she had committed a terrible crime and he wanted to execute her on the spot.
"I gave her the card. If you have any complaints, you can come at me directly, but don't hurt her."
Han Xi stood frozen in place, surrounded by all sorts of strange looks—curious, sympathetic, and even the jewelry store clerks were whispering among themselves, their expressions changing.
How ironic that Shen Jiheng personally crushed the dignity she had so painstakingly regained.
