Chapter 12: You’re a Failure

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Nian said, “Don’t interrupt. You haven’t said who that man is.”

Xing Su: “The grandson of my grandfather’s comrade-in-arms.”

Gu Nian asked, “Are you familiar with him?”

Xing Su: “I’m not familiar with him. I’ve only met him once or twice.”

The two of them walked out one after another. Gu Nian even turned back to look at the place where Jiang Wenrui had stood before. He scratched his head in confusion. “Why do I feel like I’ve seen him before?”

In order to celebrate Xing Suxi buying a new car and slapping Dai Meixue in the face, Gu Nian specially organized a celebration. He called out all his childhood friends and booked a private room in a private clubhouse to welcome Xing Su. There were all kinds of foreign wine and beer. As soon as the wine was served, Gu Nian started drinking. After a while, he drank too much. He vomited until his legs went weak. Xing Su did not drink much and was considered sober.

This clubhouse was run by Gu Nian’s father. After greeting the manager, Gu Nian was carried away by four attendants to rest. When Xing Su came out of the private clubhouse, it was already midnight. Xing Su rejected the friend who wanted to send her off. She stood at the door and watched her friends leave one after another before walking towards the new sports car. Suddenly, she remembered that she had drunk and could not drive. She wanted to take out her cell phone to find a designated driver, but her eyes hurt from the light. Coupled with the alcohol, Xing Su vomited.

Xing Su: “…”

She took a tissue and looked at the dirty sports car that she had just driven. Xing Su got out of the car in disdain, closed the door, and staggered forward aimlessly. She could not go home. Her grandfather had been strict with her since she was young and did not allow her to drink. If she went back drunk, she would be scolded.

A dessert shop on the other side of the street was still open. Xing Su pressed her aching stomach and walked in. As soon as she pushed open the door, she heard a familiar deliberate voice from inside. “Zhou Chen, I also want a piece of tiramisu…”

“Okay, baby.” After hearing that, Zhou Chen kissed Jiang Li’s forehead in front of the shop assistant. Jiang Li instantly blushed and was extremely shy.

Seeing this scene, Xing Su’s stomach hurt even more and she almost vomited again. She wanted to turn around and leave, but the shop assistant had already seen her and even shouted, “Welcome. May I know what you need?”

As it was already very late, there were not many desserts left in the window of the dessert shop. Xing Su looked at the two of them and thought to herself that she did not need anything else. She was already full from the disgusting scene.

However, what she was thinking in her heart was one thing, but her actions were another. The unwillingness to admit defeat in her bones rose. Xing Su strode forward. “I want these few pieces of egg yolk pastry.”

As soon as Xing Su spoke, Zhou Chen and Jiang Li, who were originally intimate, turned around. As the saying went, love rivals were especially jealous when they met. Xing Su and Jiang Li’s expressions were not good.

Xing Su snorted in her heart. In the future, when she went out, she had to read her fortune first. Today, she did not encounter anything good when she went out! She had lost her money and was still attracting disaster!

“Have you been drinking?” Zhou Chen did not seem to notice the awkward atmosphere. Instead, he asked Xing Su worriedly, as if he was used to it.

Xing Su rolled her eyes. As if her emotions were fluctuating too much, the alcohol surged again. She held the glass window in front of her and said, “It’s none of your business.” She didn’t want to bother with the scumbag and the mistress. Her gaze was fixed on the egg yolk pastry. The egg yolk pastry looked quite delicious.

At this moment, the shop assistant asked Jiang Li gently, “Miss, do you want anything else besides tiramisu?”

Jiang Li’s expression did not look too good, but she did not cry. Her eyes were not even red. She pretended not to see Xing Su and said indifferently to the shop assistant, “Help me pack a few more egg yolk pastries. Just pack six. My sister likes them too.” The six she mentioned happened to be the remaining number of egg yolk pastries in the window.

The shop assistant was instantly troubled, but she had no choice. Jiang Li had ordered first, so she could only look at Xing Su apologetically.

“Xiao Li, there’s so much food. We can’t finish it,” Zhou Chen suddenly said.

Jiang Li pouted angrily and said coquettishly in front of Xing Su, “But I just want to eat it…”

Facing Jiang Li, he could not say anything else and could only follow her wishes. He walked over to pay. Jiang Li took the dessert from the shop assistant and deliberately walked in front of Xing Su. She said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “I’m sorry, the man you like is mine. The egg yolk pastry you like is also mine. Xing Su, you’re such a failure. You can’t keep anything.”
