Chapter 74: 074, an old man’s rotten love affair

“Sis, come sit.”

Xiang Ranxin hesitated a bit before sitting down with her younger sister.

The last blind date at the Huo Family was like a nightmare, and she heard that Huo Jingshen got married on the spot that day.

After failing two blind dates with the two brothers of the Huo Family, she had become the laughing stock of their circle, and she didn’t want to have any contact with the Huo Family anymore.

Perhaps their gazes were too frequent, one was secretly stealing glances while the other was openly watching, Huo Jingshen suddenly raised his eyebrows and then lifted his eyelids.

Their eyes met.

Xiang Ranxin palpitates a beat in her heart, feeling a chill from his narrow, black eyes.

Before she could react, his gaze had already moved on.

The man’s expression is calm as if… he was looking at a total stranger.

Xiang Ranxin felt a complex mix of emotions.

She felt a loss, embarrassment, and most of all, a sigh of relief.

About ten minutes later, Su Wanwan finally came out in her dress.

“Mr. Huo, are you satisfied?”

The employee had a smile on their face, looking hopeful.

Whether Mr. Huo was satisfied or not, she was.

The dress was the gem of the store for two reasons. Firstly, it was too expensive for ordinary people to afford, and secondly, its colour was too particular; ordinary rouge and powder won’t do it justice.

A-list celebrity came in a few days ago wanting it, but after trying it on, she realized that while it enhanced her beauty, it also emphasized her overly flamboyant appearance. Feeling it lacked elegance, she regretfully gave up on it.

Su Wanwan, on the other hand, had naturally white skin, a delicate skeletal structure, and brilliantly luminous facial features. Being young, she still radiated innocence. The dress was a perfect fit, accentuating her charm and elegance, creating an ethereal beauty.

If she made some minor adjustments to her makeup and hair, it would be perfect.

Huo Jingshen stood there, hands in his pockets, eyebrows raised, even his thin lips curved up slightly indicating his satisfaction.

Xiang Lili, who was standing on the side, had seemingly frozen in place.

A Huo?

In the whole of Nancheng, there was only one Huo family.

Nonchalantly buying a dress worth several hundred thousand, dressed as a business elite… it couldn’t be Huo Nuanyang.

“Sis, could he be Huo Jingshen?”

Xiang Ranxin did not deny it.

Xiang Lili immediately clenched her teeth.

Being the youngest daughter of the current mayor, she was more spoiled by her parents than Xiang Ranxin. Coupled with growing up in a political environment, she always looked down on businessmen and nouveau riche.

Her eyes critically assessed Su Wanwan.

She had to admit, Yunjie was naturally good-looking and knew how to use her assets to her advantage by choosing a dress that accentuated her beauty.

Beautiful and cunning, no wonder a playboy like Huo Jingshen was hooked. It wasn’t that hard to understand why her silly sister lost to her.

An hour had passed after dressing and undressing.

Once again Su Wanwan came out from the fitting room in a hurry and said, “I need to go to the restroom.”

She had eaten two servings of ice cream earlier and now was paying the price.

Su Wanwan stepped out of the stall, still feeling a bit uncomfortable, could she have gotten her period?

There was already a woman at the sinks, she was wearing a purple sleeveless dress with a ponytail, she looked quite young.

Su Wanwan glanced at her and then went to turn on the tap.

Suddenly, the woman next to her turned around and splashed cold water into Su Wanwan’s face.

Everything happened within half a second.

Then, Su Wanwan quickly turned around and slapped the woman without a second thought.

The slap echoed around, crisp and loud.

She didn’t hold back at all.

Xiang Lili covered her face, eyes wide in surprise, “You… you actually dared to hit me?”

Ever since she was a child, this was the first time someone had the audacity to slap her!

Even her parents had never laid a hand on her!

Because she was too shocked, her voice rose higher, sounding shrill and incredulous.

“You like being humiliated, should I not hit you?” Su Wanwan replied bluntly.

If it was accidental, she wouldn’t have minded.

After all, she was a mature woman, not the reckless girl from two years ago. The two years spent studying in Los Angeles had made her much more tolerable and restrained.

But this woman intentionally scooped a handful of water and tossed it right into her face, did she mistake her for a saint because she seemed innocent and straightforward?

Xiang Lili gritted her teeth, “So you’re a shrew, acting so innocent outside, my sister must be stupid to lose to a bitch like you!”

“Lili!”

Another stall door opened, and Xiang Ranxin almost dashed out to drag her sister away, “What are you doing!”

Su Wanwan watched her.

She was wearing a white dress, looking gentle and familiar.

“I’m sorry, Mrs. Huo, my sister is still young and doesn’t understand, if she has offended you in any way please understand, I’m really sorry.” Xiang Ranxin apologized over and over again, then dragged Xiang Lili away.

Xiang Lili was still yelling on the way out, “She stole your man, sis you can’t be this timid, you apologize even after the Huo family bullied you like this, sis show some backbone for once…”

The rest of her words were drowned out by the closing of the door.

Su Wanwan stands in front of the sink, feeling her blood boil with anger.

Turns out this was her old man’s leftover mess.

They just got married a few days ago right?

There were already women splashing water to her face out of resentment.

Soon, would they resort to throwing acid? Or maybe knives?
