After My Flash Marriage with the Sick Beauty, I Reached the Pinnacle of My Life - Chapter 88
When Fu Yunhan answered, the waiter was still secretly observing them. When Xia Shishi looked over, he instantly averted his gaze, clearly feeling guilty.
With waiters like this, this restaurant was doomed.
Xia Shishi didn’t bother getting angry at the waiter and turned her attention to Fu Yunhan: “You still have the nerve to see me? Did you forget what you’ve done? Do I need to find the news media to expose it, make a video, and play it in front of you over and over again to remind you!”
He had repeatedly framed her and the Xia Group.
Yet, he could still manage a fake, ingratiating smile and approach her to cozy up.
How could he stand in front of her without changing his expression or missing a beat?
He was utterly shameless!
Fu Yunhan wanted to step forward and take Xia Shishi’s hand to explain. This was a tactic he had used on countless women; as long as he humbled himself and apologized, those women would forgive him.
Just before his hand could touch Xia Shishi, Wen Jiao lifted the thin blanket from her lap and held it up to block Fu Yunhan.
“They won’t even turn on the air conditioning.”
Wen Jiao didn’t even look at Fu Yunhan, only speaking lightly.
Before her legs healed, she had no sensation in them. After they healed, covering herself with a thin blanket in the hot summer would naturally make her warm.
However, she was accustomed to continuing to use the blanket to shield herself from the scrutinizing eyes of others.
Now, Wen Jiao acted as if she felt hot and lifted the blanket to air herself out. However, the words she was about to say were not so polite: “I remember this area belongs to CEO Wang. He even approached me last time, hoping to maintain a long-term cooperation with the Wen family.”
CEO Wang? Xia Shishi’s attention was diverted by Wen Jiao.
The next second, Wen Jiao called CEO Wang, explained that she was having dinner at the restaurant with her wife, and invited him to join them.
Xia Shishi might not know CEO Wang, but Fu Yunhan definitely did.
The Xia family was in the cosmetics business, but people like Fu Yunhan and Wen Jiao would inevitably come into contact with real estate magnates. Not to mention the city quota from last time—securing it meant becoming a new real estate developer.
This was such a huge piece of meat that Fu Yunhan had spent some effort trying to get, but ultimately failed, with Wen Jiao securing it.
No wonder Wen Jiao could win against him; it turned out she had successfully associated with CEO Wang!
Fu Yunhan curled his lips sinisterly and spoke to the unaware Xia Shishi: “So, you have such a good relationship with CEO Wang. It makes sense. I remember he likes pursuing so-called ‘powerful women’ in business and turning them into his mistresses. Shishi, it turns out your fiancée isn’t truly a lesbian. No wonder they say this circle is played wild…”
Xia Shishi lost her patience: “Shut up!”
Looking at Fu Yunhan for one more second was an insult to her eyes, and now he even dared to slander Wen Jiao.
Was this the extent of the so-called overbearing CEO in the book?
His level of self-assurance, treating the whole world as his own, was incomprehensible!
Xia Shishi didn’t know CEO Wang, but that didn’t stop her from snapping back: “Why did you suddenly come looking for me? Could it be that your repeated attempts at sabotage failed, causing your company’s stock price to fall, leading to pressure from shareholders? So you panicked and came here to beg for mercy.”
Even if Fu Yunhan’s parents handed the company over to him, allowing him to become the president at a young age, the company wasn’t entirely his.
With the stock price falling, could he withstand the pressure from the shareholders?
No wonder he was rushing to find Zhou Xiaojiang, probably seeking comfort from the gentle female lead.
After being rejected by Zhou Xiaojiang, he came to disgust her.
Xia Shishi challenged him with a cold face: “If I post your pathetic appearance in the small group, I really don’t know how my sisters will view you.”
Even though she hadn’t appeared in the small group for almost two months, she hadn’t left any of the various groups!
Two months ago, she was still calling those corporate heiresses “sisters.” Whether their friendship was genuine or superficial, they would be very happy to comment on such gossip.
“I forgot to mention, Zhou Xiaojiang is also in that group, after all, she is my ‘good friend.'”
Xia Shishi flashed a fake smile, which turned Fu Yunhan’s face dark with anger. This was good; at least her goals were achieved.
Fu Yunhan tried his best to remain calm. He looked at Xia Shishi and tried to provoke her again: “Shishi, are you really set on being with this woman? What can she give you? You can’t even have a child.”
Xia Shishi: “If a child were one-tenth as disgusting as you, I’d want to strangle them. It’s better not to have a child then.”
“Fine! Fine!” Fu Yunhan was so angry that the hand he pointed at Xia Shishi was trembling.
Wen Jiao looked over coldly, her gaze sweeping towards the waiter who was watching the spectacle. When he saw Wen Jiao look at him, he wasn’t as panicked as when Xia Shishi noticed him. He clearly saw Wen Jiao as the mistress, and Xia Shishi and Fu Yunhan as the rightful couple.
Wen Jiao had experienced being looked down upon like these many times. She was usually too lazy to care, considering it a waste of time to argue with such people.
But now, Wen Jiao was extremely displeased with Fu Yunhan pointing his finger at Xia Shishi. She asked the waiter: “Aren’t you going to call security to stop him?”
The waiter was so engrossed in watching the drama that he was momentarily at a loss. When he finally reacted, he looked at Wen Jiao with disdain: “That’s enough. A mistress still wants to be in charge? Stop getting in the way of the real relationship between a man and a woman.”
Setting aside whether Wen Jiao had ever been subjected to such disrespect, even Xia Shishi hadn’t.
She rushed over immediately, not forgetting to tell Wen Jiao to call Director Liu and others to handle the aftermath.
After rushing over, Xia Shishi delivered a sharp slap.
Instead of swallowing her anger, it was better to retaliate wildly. The loud smack of the slap echoed through the restaurant, drawing the attention of other diners. Before the waiter could say anything, she quickly took out her phone and called the police: “Someone here is insulting and slandering me! I suspect my personal safety is in jeopardy! The other party looks like he’s about to strike!”
After saying that, Xia Shishi snapped a picture of the waiter. In the photo, the waiter’s hand, raised in a fit of rage, hadn’t had time to lower yet.
Xia Shishi executed this series of movements quickly and accurately. After she was done, she didn’t forget to take a picture of Fu Yunhan. If she had only spoken about sharing it earlier, now she was genuinely going to post it in the small group.
After sending Fu Yunhan’s photo, Xia Shishi tapped the voice input button and said loudly: “This is absolutely disgusting. My dearest and I came out to eat, and he actually ran over and openly tried to seduce me. Where does that leave my dignity? He even begged me not to expose the despicable things he did in secret. Doesn’t he know those things have already been exposed online?”
Fu Yunhan’s eyes were tearing: “You’re the one spreading slander and rumors!”
Xia Shishi stood tall: “My wife and I both heard it. Do you still want to deny it?”
This sudden series of arguments completely shocked the diners present.
Especially Xia Shishi, who claimed with conviction that she and Wen Jiao were legally married and were having a nice meal here, but this lunatic Fu Yunhan insisted on showing up, and the waiter was colluding with him.
No matter what the waiter and Fu Yunhan tried to say, Xia Shishi held firm to her point.
“My wife and I just got married and are on our honeymoon. Are we to be pestered by scoundrels like you?”
If pushed, she would start playing Qi Xue’s previous clarification video and point at Fu Yunhan: “Didn’t you bribe my friend and ask her to smear me? What’s going on with this video? Listen! Listen carefully!”
This was the threat Xia Shishi had made before.
The first time was a threat, but there would be no second time. The second time, Xia Shishi would take direct action.
Whether it was sharing it within the circle or turning it into a video to play repeatedly for Fu Yunhan.
The first priority was to discredit Fu Yunhan and make his rebuttals lose all credibility.
“These are the things you taught me.” Xia Shishi watched Fu Yunhan gleefully. Before the police arrived, she continued speaking at super-speed, crying and presenting various pieces of evidence before the waiter and Fu Yunhan could speak.
Even if it was madness, as long as it was organized, people wouldn’t dismiss it as just crazy behavior.
Wen Jiao was straightening her blanket.
She couldn’t help but smile. Although she restrained herself when the police came to question them, she soon started smiling again.
It turned out Xia Shishi didn’t need her to send people to clean up the mess at all. Who could resist this kind of solution? Most importantly, this feeling of being protected by her “younger partner” was very interesting.
The call to Director Liu to handle the aftermath had already been made, but by the time he arrived with his people, he was a step too late.
However, it didn’t matter. He still had things to do, such as getting a firsthand account of the gossip and sharing it with his school alumni.
Finally, as Fu Yunhan was enraged, Xia Shishi warned him with a smile: “Since you know we are difficult to deal with, don’t come to obstruct us again, understood?”
The first time was a warning, the second time would be different.
She slowly took out her phone to check the small group she had shared in and then gasped: “Zhou Xiaojiang replied. Do you know what she said? She said it was embarrassing.”
The chat record showed that Zhou Xiaojiang was tagged by others.
They asked Zhou Xiaojiang if this person had pursued her before.
So, Zhou Xiaojiang inexplicably started feeling embarrassed and then coolly clarified the matter.
“I have nothing to do with him…” Fu Yunhan clearly saw this sentence.
This was even more infuriating than Xia Shishi’s previous crazy antics. How could Zhou Xiaojiang have nothing to do with him!
He looked at Xia Shishi with bloodshot eyes: “You don’t know, do you? The matter with Qi Xue was her idea! Did you think Zhou Xiaojiang was acting under my instruction when she went to find Qi Xue? No, she was the one who initially wanted to put you to death! And you still consider her a good friend… Xia Shishi, your judgment of women is truly terrible.”
Xia Shishi lowered her eyes: “You’re wrong about that. My judgment is excellent.”
It was just a momentary confusion in her past life.
She had tasted the bitter fruit of her mistake, and Fu Yunhan and the others wouldn’t be able to escape either.
Xia Shishi privately messaged Zhou Xiaojiang the recording she had just made—the section where Fu Yunhan made the accusation.
She waited for Zhou Xiaojiang’s panic and desperate apologies.
After all, Zhou Xiaojiang had already signed that contract, and the next ten years were in her hands.
Xia Shishi blinked, put away her heartless gaze, and returned to her seat.
She had originally only intended to take Wen Jiao out for a meal and some relaxation. With something like this happening, probably no one was in the mood.
She was thinking of suggesting they change to another restaurant when Wen Jiao looked to be in a good mood: “Let’s continue eating. I just invited CEO Wang over, so you two can be introduced to each other.”
Even if Fu Yunhan’s smears were false, Wen Jiao still wanted to give Xia Shishi a reliable explanation.
By the time CEO Wang arrived, the situation here had begun to stabilize, but the atmosphere after the police had been present was noticeably different from normal. CEO Wang acutely sensed this.
He knew that Wen Jiao’s sudden invitation for dinner wasn’t an impulsive idea; something must have happened.
So, after CEO Wang sat down and exchanged pleasantries, he started asking what was wrong.
Wen Jiao imitated the words Xia Shishi had used earlier: “My wife and I came out to eat and were inexplicably insulted by a waiter. He also took the liberty of bringing someone who had framed me in the past right in front of me, embarrassing me… CEO Wang, I didn’t want to trouble you with such a small matter, but I chose this place because I wanted my wife to see what an outstanding person my business partner is, and then this happened.”
These weren’t the words Wen Jiao would normally say, but now she spoke them so naturally that CEO Wang was startled, wondering if Wen Jiao had been switched out.
Fortunately, CEO Wang was a man who had been married for many years. With Wen Jiao repeatedly mentioning “wife,” he quickly understood.
She had wanted to impress her wife, but an accident happened.
It wasn’t just Wen Jiao who was embarrassed, but also himself, whom she had praised! How could CEO Wang allow this to happen? He angrily said: “Which thoughtless waiter? How does this restaurant train its employees!”
