Chapter 380: Chapter 381 Ma Rong’s Past

Ma Rong could tell that Su Xuejiao was scared and wanted to flee as soon as she saw her getting up to leave.

How could she possibly let her get away?

Back in school, although they were not in the same class, Su Xuejiao’s conceit had repeatedly caused Ma Rong public embarrassment, and Ma Rong hated her bitterly.

Now, finally finding an opportunity, with a table full of her best friends, if she didn’t seek revenge now, when would she?

So, Ma Rong directly grabbed Su Xuejiao’s hand to make her sit down, and her tone of voice was full of provocation.

At the same time, Ma Rong’s other three girlfriends chimed in, each with a sentence suggesting that it would be utterly disgraceful for Su Xuejiao to leave the table.

"Sit down, we’re not tigers, why are you avoiding us?"

Seeing Su Xuejiao standing next to the dining table with her face turning a bit red with embarrassment, Ma Rong’s face bore a feigned smile.

Cornered by Ma Rong and the other girls into a speechless state, Su Xuejiao hesitated and could only look to Qin Tian for help, thinking, "Brother Qin Tian, please say something. We can’t dine with them; these people are all my enemies!"

"We’ve all graduated, and we’ll still see each other at the Beijing Film Academy. Isn’t today a good day to have a chat and improve relations? If you walk away like this, others might think I’ve bullied you, hee hee... Right, Handsome Qin Tian?"

As Su Xuejiao looked at Qin Tian, Ma Rong spoke up with a laugh, aiming the barb at Qin Tian again.

Seeing Ma Rong targeting Qin Tian once more, Su Xuejiao couldn’t contain her anger and stood up, ready to confront Ma Rong.

"Ma Rong, you better not..."

However, before Su Xuejiao could finish her sentence, Qin Tian took her hand and spoke up.

"Yeah, you all will have to see each other often in Beijing, and now’s the time to have that talk and feel closer to each other."

Qin Tian said with a chuckle, pulling Su Xuejiao down to sit with him.

Su Xuejiao looked at Qin Tian with a shocked expression, thinking, "Brother Qin Tian, what are you doing? I wanted you to speak up for me and get us out of this situation, and you actually sat down? Do you not realize the four girls in front of you are not easy to deal with?"

But as much as she complained inwardly, since they had already sat down, Su Xuejiao couldn’t say much. She maintained a calm facade, her mind racing with thoughts of the potentially embarrassing scenes to come, and pondering how she could excuse herself later.

Before the dinner began, Tang Shishi, the host of the evening, and her boyfriend gave some opening remarks, basically welcoming everyone and telling them to have a good time; after that, the dinner officially started.

The dishes on the table were predominantly of European style, and Qin Tian, accustomed to Chinese cuisine, had no appetite at all. Glancing over at Ma Rong and the other girls, he saw them laughing and talking, with exaggerated and affected motions of eating, as if dining on Western food was some kind of performance, which made Qin Tian feel sick.

Su Xuejiao, on the other hand, was used to eating such fare. However, she knew her situation was precarious, so the normally talkative girl just focused on eating, without speaking.

"Hey, Mr. Qin Tian, is the Western cuisine not to your liking, or have you not had Western food before? Why aren’t you even picking up your fork?"

Just as expected, not even a minute into the meal, Ma Rong started to make conversation out of nothing.

"If this Western food isn’t to your taste, I can tell the hostess, my good friend Tang Shishi, that you find it unpalatable. I’m sure she’d be willing to change it to something like stir-fry or fried rice that you’d prefer. I suppose you should be used to this kind of garbage food, right?"

Damn, this woman really knows how to hide barbs in her words!

Ma Rong’s overtly provocative, conversation-for-the-sake-of-conversation attitude instantly got on Qin Tian’s nerves.

Fuck, do you think just because you’re a woman I won’t deal with you?

Qin Tian pursed his lips and didn’t respond directly to Ma Rong’s words. Instead, he countered, "Miss Ma Rong, do you think this Western food tastes bad?"

Ma Rong was taken aback and then laughed, "No, I think it’s very tasty."

Qin Tian said, "If it’s so tasty, why do you still have time to talk? Aren’t these dishes enough to plug up your ’horse mouth’?"

"Pfft!"

The term "horse mouth" from Qin Tian made Su Xuejiao, who was eating, almost spit out her food. She laughed, "Her surname is Ma, horse mouth... Hehe, it suits her temperament perfectly."

With Qin Tian and Su Xuejiao taking turns, they instantly turned the tables on Ma Rong, who had intended to provoke and embarrass both Qin Tian and Su Xuejiao, causing her face to turn red with shame. She hadn’t expected Qin Tian to be so quick-witted, to stoop to arguing with a woman, and even verbally sparring!

The atmosphere at the scene turned a bit awkward. Seeing Ma Rong was not gaining the upper hand, one of her friends named Yao Chugui stepped up to speak for her: "Xue jao, your mouth is quite sharp, isn’t it? You don’t add grace, but you’re more than eager to fan the flames."

With that, Yao Chugui let out a cold laugh and said, "As far as I’m aware, you’re just an orphan. If it weren’t for your grandfather and your cousin, you probably wouldn’t have the right to sit here and dine with us, would you? Ah, I wonder if Mr. Qin Tian knows the specifics about your situation. Mr. Qin Tian, if you knew that Su Xuejiao is an orphan, you wouldn’t mind, right? Oh my, oh my, why am I saying all this... I’m really running my mouth."

After Yao Chugui spoke in a pretentious manner, she covered her mouth, acting as if she shouldn’t have spoken, even though she’d said it all.

Another of Ma Rong’s friends, Hong Xing, chimed in, "Chugui, now that you mention it, that’s true. We all come from noble births. As for social status, Xue jao really isn’t in the same league as us."

"Take Sister Ma Rong for example. Do you know who her last boyfriend was? Wang Baoqiang, the country’s top Martial Arts star. With that kind of status and position, Sister Ma Rong decisively broke up with him to be with Brother Song Zhe. Xue jao, doesn’t Sister Ma Rong’s disregard for fame move you?"

At this question, Su Xuejiao was taken aback.

Then, just a few seconds later, Su Xuejiao laughed, "Really? Was it Ma Rong who initiated the breakup with Wang Baoqiang? If I recall correctly, wasn’t it Wang Baoqiang who dumped you, Ma Rong? This was all covered by the paparazzi. Apparently, Wang Baoqiang had your fortune told and found that your birth signs were incompatible, hinting at inevitable infidelity after marriage or something like that, and he ultimately dumped you, right?"

Like striking at Ma Rong’s sore spot, Su Xuejiao ruthlessly tore open her alluring scars.

Although this affair didn’t cause a sensation in the entertainment industry, it was indeed reported by some tabloids. The whole story was simple: Martial Arts star Wang Baoqiang was in Zhonghai City promoting a new movie, and Ma Rong, somehow, became a trainee host for the production company. Then, she used her seduction skills, which captured Wang Baoqiang’s heart at first sight.

However, Wang Baoqiang is a traditional guy who believes in Buddhism and fortune-telling. The fortune-telling outcome indicated that their birth signs were incompatible: Ma Rong was naturally flirtatious, and as a result, infidelity after marriage was inevitable. Therefore, Wang Baoqiang resolutely kicked Ma Rong to the curb.
