It was incredibly easy for him to make someone’s life unbearable. Mi Qiang dared not say anything more. He left in a huff.
I watched Chen Haotian's back, feeling a wave of emotion wash over me. I never expected him to protect me like this! It was truly touching!
Chen Haotian turned around and looked at me. "Let's go, my wife," he said. I obediently followed him and got into the car.
Chen Haotian drove me home, and as I sat in the passenger seat, I couldn't help but reflect on how fortunate I was to meet such a wonderful man. It was genuinely heartwarming!
Once we arrived home, Chen Haotian told me he wanted to introduce me to his parents. I nervously clenched my fingers. "Honey, am I going to embarrass you?"
He smiled and patted my head. "Of course not! My parents are really nice; you don't have to worry."
I sighed, "But I've never met them before, so I'm bound to be nervous."
Chen Haotian took my hand in his. "It's okay; I'll be there with you. Just make sure to finish work on time and wait for me."
I forced a smile, feeling a bit guilty. "Okay."
Deep down, I was still quite anxious. After all, I had never met his parents before. What if they didn't like me?
Chen Haotian seemed to sense my thoughts. He reached out and embraced me, saying, "Don't worry, my dear."
"Mom and Dad will definitely like you!" I nodded in response.
The next day during lunch, Lin Huirong leaned over to chat with me. She started with some trivial remarks before boasting about her boyfriend. She mentioned how he bought her various luxury items and took her on trips. I knew she was deliberately showing off in front of me, but I didn't want to engage with her.
After giving a few perfunctory responses, I turned my attention away. However, Lin Huirong persisted in talking to me. She intentionally asked, "Shi Ran, hasn't your boyfriend ever bought you a handbag?"
I put down my chopsticks and looked up at her. "We broke up."
Lin Huirong feigned surprise, "When did you break up?"
I replied coolly, "A few days ago."
She pressed on, "Why did you break up?"
I shot her a glare. "What does it matter to you?"
Lin Huirong scoffed, "Shi Ran, stop acting so high and mighty!"
"I bet that jerk dumped you!"
I couldn't help but retort, "Lin Huirong! Can you not speak so harshly?"
She gave me a disdainful glance. "Isn't it true?"
I was too tired to argue with her any longer. So, I stood up and moved to another table to continue my meal.
Sister Ma walked over and sat down beside me, quietly asking, "Shi Ran, did you break up with your boyfriend?"
I nodded. "Yeah."
Sister Ma looked at me cautiously. "What happened?"
I didn't want to answer that question, so I changed the subject. "Sister Ma, you should eat more meat."
She paused for a moment before smiling. "Okay."
Lin Huirong was still nearby, mocking me with her sarcastic tone.
She deliberately spoke loudly, "You know what? My boyfriend is amazing!"
"He buys me all sorts of gifts every day!"
"And he's taking me to Italy for vacation!"
As she spoke, she shot me a smug glance.
I ignored her and continued eating.
Sister Ma remained silent as well.
The other colleagues were filled with envy.
They eagerly asked Lin Huirong for her boyfriend's contact information.
Lin Huirong smiled triumphantly and didn’t refuse.
Watching her arrogant demeanor made me feel particularly uncomfortable.
But there was nothing I could do about it.
After all, her boyfriend treated her really well, unlike mine who was such a jerk!
Thinking of this made me grit my teeth in anger.
