Chapter 25: Don't Let Anyone Use You as a Ladder

Lu Xiwán has often been very envious of Gu Qingmeng because of his unconditional belief.

But she has never imagined any problem between the two of them.

If Gu Qingmeng hadn't personally ripped the window paper, Lu Xiwán would probably have remained forever in her own world.

Gu Qingmeng didn't need to say a word; Fu Sijue readily yielded, and many people saw the two of them as a perfect match.

Those people's contemptuous looks are still vivid in my mind.

Lu Xiwán will never forget how Gu Qingmeng swaggered and flaunted in front of him.

Fu Sijue carefully protected the pregnant Gu Qingmeng.

Seeing Gu Qingmeng cry now, every past second feels like a knife thrust into Lu Xiwán's heart again.

This is Gu Qingmeng's delayed retribution, but unfortunately she cannot witness it as Lu Xiwán.

"I'm sorry…" Gu Qingmeng's voice was as faint as a mosquito's, clearly reluctant.

Lu Xiwán raised an eyebrow, "Miss Gu, what did you say? I didn't hear it."

Gu Qingmeng glared angrily at Lu Xiwán, and once more spoke reluctantly.

"Miss Gu, an apology depends on attitude; if yours is like this, I'm afraid I can't accept it either."

Lu Xiwán did it on purpose, so what?

People who do wrong are meant to receive punishment.

"I said I'm sorry, fine! Are you satisfied now? Watching me make a fool of myself must feel great to you, right?"

Gu Qingmeng shouted angrily; if a stare could kill, Lu Xiwán would already have been torn to pieces.

Lu Xiwán lightly clapped, "Miss Gu, if you still think the voice isn't loud enough, go get a megaphone and shout; I don't mind the noise."

As long as she doesn't feel embarrassed, that's fine.

Gu Qingmeng, successfully angered, stamped her foot and went upstairs.

Lu Xiwán was about to tug at the corner of her mouth to smile, but winced in pain and furrowed her brows.

It seems she still underestimated Fu Sijue; people born under the Dog sign are usually sharp‑tongued, and even her lips were scraped.

Is this man using every ounce of his strength?

"Mr. Fu, keep at least two meters away from me from now on," Lu Xiwán warned, eyeing Fu Sijue warily.

It seems carrying Pepper spray is still useful; I'll have to quickly buy two bottles online later.

Specifically for dealing with ambush‑loving Fu Sijue.

Having been humiliated, Gu Qingmeng naturally felt upset, her mind filled with the image of Fu Sijue forcefully kissing Lu Xiwán earlier.

Even if this woman isn't Lu Xiwán's whore, just because she looks so much alike, trouble will eventually erupt; Gu Qingmeng kicked the door hard, producing a loud bang.

From the moment she first saw Xi Wan, Gu Qingmeng felt something was wrong; the more they interact, the more uneasy she becomes.

This woman staying would be an absolute threat to her; Gu Qingmeng must not let her stay.

Gu Qingmeng fidgeted with her phone for a long while, but couldn't think of a good solution.

Aside from their similar looks, Xi Wan and Lu Xiwán have almost nothing in common.

Xi Wan is not the type to endure; as soon as anything happens, she tells Fu Sijue right away, which is very disadvantageous for Gu Qingmeng.
