BXBX NOVEL Chapter 90: 90: What’s Wrong with Me Supporting You?
“Lu Qing, it’s not what you think…” Ye Yuzhen hastily pushed Lin Shen away, wanting to explain to Lu Qing.
“You’ve already gone this far, what’s there to explain? I must have been blind to have treated you like a sister. When I was with Lin Shen, did I make you so jealous? You did everything you could to ruin our relationship, how many bad things about Lin Shen did you say to my face, all the while scheming to break us up, and now you’ve finally gotten your wish to climb up the ladder, congratulations to you,” Lu Qing said coldly, the words meant as much for Ye Yuzhen as they were for Lin Shen.
She wanted to make Lin Shen realize that Ye Yuzhen was no good person, and that their breakup was all because of Ye Yuzhen.
Ye Yuzhen, who was originally intending to explain, became angry upon hearing what Lu Qing said.
“Lu Qing, if that’s what you think, then let’s talk things out right now. What bad things did I say about Lin Shen? Tell me clearly, one by one!” Ye Yuzhen was also fired up.
“You don’t know the bad things you said? Do I have to spell them out for you?”
“I really don’t know, tell me.”
“Alright, I’ll tell you, you said Lin Shen was all about eating, drinking, and having fun, and not serious about life, that was what you said, wasn’t it?”
“That was what I said.”
“You said he was over twenty and still hadn’t gone through Base Mutation, what future could he have, do you admit it?”
“I admit it.”
“You said he came from a low background, and my family would definitely not approve of him, you said that too, didn’t you?”
“Yes, I said it.”
…
Lin Shen and Wei Wufu watched the two women locked in a fierce confrontation, the tension so palpable it was almost explosive; they didn’t dare interrupt, only watching from the side.
The war between women was even more terrifying than the battles fought by men, even Wufu felt helpless.
“Lin Shen, you’ve heard everything, now you see her true face clearly, now you know what kind of woman she is, right?” After saying this, Lu Qing turned to Lin Shen.
Lin Shen certainly knew, in fact, he had known all along, but what did that matter? He only wanted to find a suitable woman to carry on the Lin Family line, and Ye Yuzhen was the most suitable choice right now.
Lin Shen was about to say something, but Ye Yuzhen spoke first, “Yes, I did say Lin Shen was only interested in indulging himself and not serious about his affairs, I said he lacked ambition, I said his background was humble, and that your family would definitely not agree to you two being together. I said all of those things, but who told me about them? How many times have I met Lin Shen before? Why would I know what kind of person he is? Who told me these things?”
“Lu Qing, you think you’re noble and you’re the good person. You don’t want to say the words yourself, so you made me say them, made me be the villain. Now you’re turning it around and blaming me for breaking you two up. Fine, I’m the bad person, I’m despicable and shameless, I don’t deserve to be your sister. From now on, you take your sunshine path, and I’ll cross my log bridge; we will have nothing to do with each other anymore.” As she spoke, Ye Yuzhen walked to the door, opened it, and said, “Leave, you’re not welcome here.”
“Damn, the counterattack!” Lin Shen and Wei Wufu were both stunned, the showdown between the two women was even more dazzling than a duel between martial artists, the back and forth was just too damn spectacular.
“You…” For a moment, Lu Qing was at a loss for words, seemingly completely defeated.
“Please,” Ye Yuzhen said coolly, making a gesture for Lu Qing to leave.
“Lin Shen, do you believe me or her?” Lu Qing still hadn’t given up and looked at Lin Shen to ask.
“Let bygones be bygones.” Lu Qing was not a bad person, but Lin Shen was not one to retrace his steps. From the moment they broke up, it became impossible for him to have any relationship with Lu Qing again.
Lu Qing’s spirits plummeted, and without saying anything more, he left the training ground in a daze, feeling blocked and uncomfortable inside.
After Lu Qing left, Ye Yuzhen turned to face Lin Shen, “Now you know what kind of person I am, why are you still standing here?”
“Ye Yuzhen, there’s something I’m really curious about.” Lin Shen’s gaze was fixed on Ye Yuzhen, his expression somewhat complex.
“What is it? Just say it. It’s all out in the open now, there’s nothing that can’t be said. I’ll tell you whatever you want to know,” Ye Yuzhen started to act recklessly.
“Back at the market, I could hear your secret; you did that on purpose, didn’t you?” Lin Shen asked.
“Yes, it was arranged by me on purpose.”
“What about the matchmaking?”
“That too was my arrangement. I knew you were going to the matchmaking event, so I went to find the chubby proprietress. What can I say, I’m just that kind of scheming, green tea bitch, are you satisfied now?”
“Then I don’t understand. You know my situation very well, only interested in eating, drinking, and merrymaking without any real work, with no ambition. To others, I might be considered a rich second generation, but compared to your family background, my little fortune really doesn’t amount to much; standing next to you, it wouldn’t be too much to call me underprivileged. Why would you go to such lengths for someone like me?” Lin Shen was genuinely curious about what Ye Yuzhen was thinking—did she simply want to snatch her best friend’s boyfriend? Did she have that kind of hobby?
Ye Yuzhen hesitated for a moment, but given the state of things, her emotions at a peak, she blurted out carelessly, “You might be irresponsible and lack ambition, and your family might be average, and you’re never serious about anything, but so what? I’m just cheap and I like someone like you, is it wrong for me to want to have you? Those issues might be problems for others, but they are not problems for me. You have nothing, I have everything, you like to play, then play, do whatever you love, I come from a wealthy family, what’s wrong with me supporting you?”
Lin Shen stared at Ye Yuzhen, momentarily at a loss for words, only able to think this woman was incredibly audacious.
“But let’s make one thing clear, when you were with Lu Qing, I never did anything to betray him. Is it my fault if she doesn’t want you and I do? Now that you seem better off, you want to go back, why should I give him up…” Ye Yuzhen was completely throwing caution to the wind today.
Before Ye Yuzhen could finish speaking, she was suddenly wrapped in Lin Shen’s strong arms.
Lin Shen’s lips kissed Ye Yuzhen’s forehead, feeling that this woman was not like what he had previously thought, and he actually, genuinely started to like her a little bit.
“Could it be that I’m also a scoundrel, or why else would I find a scheming woman somewhat cute?”
“Indecent, ignore.” Wei Wufu turned his head away silently.
Ye Yuzhen trembled all over, her cheeks flushed, her mind a blank, and it took a long time before she regained enough sanity to push Lin Shen away.
“Do you really not mind?” Ye Yuzhen looked up at Lin Shen, her eyes and eyebrows softened like a spring breeze.
“Mind what?” Lin Shen asked knowingly.
“I really didn’t mean to belittle you, none of those things are faults to me. I didn’t mean to insult you either; before, I thought your lack of ambition was no problem—I could support you. But now I see that you don’t need me at all…”
“No, no, no, don’t think that way; I have a sensitive stomach, the doctor said I can’t eat food that’s too hard, I have to eat something soft…” Lin Shen hurriedly interrupted Ye Yuzhen, scared of being misunderstood.
