Chapter 154: Chapter 154: The Nation-Ruining and People-Harming Demon (2)_1
"Bro?"
"Xia Chen’an?"
After Xia Wan’an called Xia Chen’an several times, Xia Chen’an finally snapped out of his thoughts.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing..." Xia Chen’an smiled broadly, regaining his usual playful demeanor: "I was just thinking, since Baby has made a new friend, you should bring the new friend home to meet me."
"Sure..."
...
After finishing afternoon tea, Xia Chen’an had to go back to work.
Xia Wan’an glanced at the time and realized it was still early, so she decided to go back to the office for a while.
As she sauntered towards her office, she was about to cross the road when someone called out, "Xia Wan’an."
She turned to see an unfamiliar woman with thick makeup and heavy false eyelashes that made her eyelids hurt just looking at them.
However, out of politeness, Xia Wan’an stopped and turned towards the woman: "May I ask who you are?"
"Gao Lin." The woman walked over with an air of superiority, her stiletto heels clicking against the pavement.
Xia Wan’an frowned slightly, somewhat disliking the woman’s imposing manner, which made her tone colder than usual, "Can I help you?"
"I’m Azhi’s girlfriend." After saying this, Gao Lin paused, then added, "Azhi, as in Gu Yuzhi, he’s mine. I hope you stay away from him."
When did she ever get close to Gu?
Xia Wan’an did not care for the commanding tone of the woman before her, so she shot back, "Miss Gao, not everyone is keen to get involved with Director Gu. Hence, you’re mistaken about me keeping my distance from him. There’s simply no distance between Director Gu and me in the first place."
Gao Lin let out a sarcastic laugh, "Don’t play innocent here. Don’t think I don’t know how attentive Azhi is to you in the office today. Didn’t he even get you a blanket?"
"Oh, you mean that..." Xia Wan’an nodded with a look of sudden realization, then replied leisurely, "Since you’re Director Gu’s girlfriend, it’s your responsibility to keep your boyfriend from causing unnecessary trouble for others."
Gao Lin was left speechless for a while: "..."
Finally, Gao Lin blurted out in indignation, "What are you implying? That Azhi’s been bothering you? Don’t flatter yourself! I bet it’s you who’s been throwing yourself at him. Even if it was true that Azhi did bother you, it must be you who gave him some signals, making him think you’re coming on to him! There’s a saying you need to learn – ’the initiator is the cheap one.’ And another one – ’a woman who throws herself at a man is easy prey!’"
So she’s accusing her of being cheap and throwing herself at Gu Yuzhi? Even saying that she’s a woman who throws herself at men?
Xia Wan’an furrowed her brow, but replied coolly, "Miss Gao, let me correct you, the one deluding herself is you. Do you think I would be interested in a man you’ve set your sights on? Are you trying to elevate yourself by bringing me into it?"
"You—" Gao Lin was so angry her hand began to tremble: "Are you belittling me? You dare to look down on me? I’ve seen your kind before, just a pretty face latching onto men and living off them like parasites."
"I’ll take what you just said as a compliment. After all, to become a parasite, one has to be exceptionally good-looking." Compared to Gao Lin, who was seething with anger, Xia Wan’an looked very pleased and cheerful, "Miss Gao, thank you for the compliment."
