Chapter 98 - Such Is The Temptation Of a Beautiful Man, Another Woman Has Fallen!
“Luo Chenxi! Where the h*ll have you been? Why aren’t you replying to my messages? I went to your house to look for you but your neighbour told me that you had moved out! Are you even my best friend?”
A woman’s furious voice came bursting from the handphone.
Fortunately, Luo Chenxi was ready for it and put the phone at a distance. She brought it close only after the outburst was over.
“Little Qianqian, what’s with the ferocity? Didn’t we vow to be each other’s angel for eternity? It hasn’t even been that long, why does it sound like you’ve gotten tired of an old hag like me?” Luo Chenxi said, feigning pity.
Fang Ziqian snorted and said, “How dare you have the nerve to bring that up? You have one hour, meet me in the cafe at the ground floor of my office building, or we’re done!”
Luo Chenxi quickly packed up and left.
Fang Ziqian and Luo Chenxi were best friends. They first met at the orphanage when they were young.
She was a big-sister type of intellectual beauty. Today, she wore a professional-looking OL suit and black-rimmed glasses.
There was no way anyone would have imagined how hot-tempered she was from her looks.
“Luo Chenxi! So you are alive! Why haven’t you picked up my calls for such a long time?” Fang Ziqian mouthed off as soon as the two met.
Luo Chenxi knew that she was in the wrong, so she put her palms together as she sat down opposite of Fang Ziqian.
“I’m so sorry, little Qianqian, I have my own reasons.”
Fang Zixi immediately frowned. “What is it? Did something happen to you again…”
Luo Chenxi saw the expression on Fang Ziqian’s face and knew that she was thinking about what happened four years ago. She quickly shook her head and corrected Fang Ziqian, “No, it’s not what you think! It’s…”
She hesitated for a moment and eventually decided to tell her about the marriage.
Fang Ziqian became furious after hearing Luo Chenxi’s explanation. “D*mn, Luo Anguo and his sons are way too shameless! How could they do something like this? You are his daughter in flesh and blood, how could he do this to you? What are you to him? So, how is the situation now, is Auntie Fang still alright?”
“I went to the hospital yesterday, mommy’s condition’s still stable.”
“That’s great then.” Fang Ziqian heaved a sigh of relief, then started ranting to Luo Chenxi again, “Why didn’t you tell me sooner when you encountered such a big problem? I’ve started working earlier than you did, so I have a bit of savings. I could’ve lent you some money.”
Luo Chenxi shook her head. “You work overtime everyday and can only earn so much, my mommy’s illness is a bottomless pit, so I can’t trouble you for it. Moreover, the only way I can find a heart donor for my mommy is to rely on the Luo Family’s power.”
Fang Zixi said angrily, “How can you call this ‘troubling’ me?”
“Alright, Alright. I’m already married now. It’s too late for you to say anything more. Besides, it’s not entirely a loss to be married into the Mu family. After all, look, I’m now the young madam of a wealthy family!”
Luo Chenxi finally managed to calm down Fang Ziqian after explaining a bunch.
“Wait, wait, wait, wait… What did you just say? Who exactly did you marry? The eldest young master of the number one wealthy family in T City, isn’t that…”
Up until now, Fang Ziqian was busy pinning the blame onto the Luo Family. Now that she calmed down, she noticed an important point that Luo Chenxi mentioned.
Luo Chenxi nodded. “Oh, that’s right, it’s exactly who you think it is… My husband is Mu Yichen…”
“The great ideal husband of the people, Mu Yichen?”
Fang Ziqian’s eyes were about to pop out.
“What did I just hear? My best friend just got married to Mu Yichen! That Mu Yichen who always got voted as the number one man that most women would want to marry every year, the extremely handsome Mu Yichen that every woman would spread her legs for?”
“Ahem! Little Qianqian, don’t be so excited, keep your voice down, everyone’s starting to look this way…”
Luo Chenxi pounced over and covered Fang Ziqian’s mouth.
However, it was already too late.
The other customers in the cafe all looked at them with strange eyes.
“Someone is fantasizing about getting married to Young Master Mu again!”
“Previously, a woman went all the way to the top of the Empire State Building at the 188th floor and declared that she would jump off from the building if Young Master Mu didn’t agree to date her!”
“Such is the temptation of a man of unworldly gorgeousness, another woman has fallen!”
