With a blank expression, she glanced at the two of them, then turned and walked away.
But that woman wouldn't give up. She caught up to her and grabbed her arm: "You're Lin Nuan?"
Lin Nuan shook her off and dusted her sleeve: "Got a problem?"
"I've heard all about you. Fooling Uncle Ning so completely—people like you will get what's coming to them."
Lin Nuan furrowed her brow. What a tone—she must be close with the Ning family.
The woman tossed her wavy hair. "Let me tell you, Lin Nuan, I'm Shi Yu's fiancée, the Su Group heiress, Su Linfei."
Talking about her own background, Su Linfei was full of arrogance.
Lin Nuan, Ye Ke?
What are they, really? She herself is the eldest Miss of the Su family—who could possibly compete with her?
Looking over all of A City, who besides her is actually worthy of Ning Shiyu?
Lin Nuan was not impressed. "Miss Su, come brag when you finally sit in the position of Mrs. Ning."
Ning Shiyu's face darkened instantly. She wasn't angry, didn't start a fight with Su Linfei, and was even thinking of using her to put pressure on him.
This woman only has one thing on her mind: divorce.
He must have lost his mind back then to listen to Ning Qingyang and marry her into the family.
Su Linfei was so mad her cheeks turned red and her neck tightened. She blocked Lin Nuan's path: "Lin, Shi Yu never loved you. He and I are a perfect match—I will be the real Mrs. Ning, married into the family with all the proper ceremony."
Leaning in close to Lin Nuan's ear, Su Linfei sneered, "You didn't even get a wedding, hardly anyone knows you exist. What kind of Mrs. Ning are you?"
Lin Nuan's fists clenched tight, her face changed drastically.
Yeah, not even a wedding. What right did she have to be Mrs. Ning?
After a brief, awkward silence, Lin Nuan smiled calmly. "Well, I'll be sure to wait for your wedding banquet, Miss Su."
Ning Shiyu wasn't worth losing her mind over—not three years ago, and even less so now.
"Shi Yu, you'll definitely marry me and throw me a grand wedding, right?" Su Linfei turned and clung to Ning Shiyu's arm, sweetly acting spoiled without restraint.
Looking at Ning Shiyu, Lin Nuan took two steps forward: "Congratulations in advance, Mr. Ning."
After saying congratulations, she walked away.
You want to laugh at her, to use that Su girl to hurt her? Ning Shiyu was dreaming.
He was no longer worth her madness, not worth her sadness.
After Lin Nuan left, Su Linfei bounced up to Ning Shiyu. "Shi Yu, there's a new Japanese restaurant by the East Gate, let's…"
Before Su Linfei could finish, Ning Shiyu pulled his arm away coldly.
"Shi Yu, wait for me."
She trailed him all the way to the underground parking lot, but Ning Shiyu didn't respond to her at all.
Ning Shiyu got into the car. Su Linfei reached for the passenger door.
Click, click, she tried several times but the door was locked. She tried the back door, same thing.
"Shi Yu." Su Linfei tapped the window, acting cute.
Ning Shiyu stepped on the gas and drove off without even looking at her.
Staring at the car's disappearing shadow, Su Linfei's eyes reddened with anger.
Ning Shiyu, one day you won't be able to leave me.
--
Driving home, Lin Nuan gripped the steering wheel tightly.
"Shi Yu never loved you."
"You didn't even get a wedding. Hardly anyone knows you exist. What kind of Mrs. Ning are you?"
Those few lines from Su Linfei kept ringing in Lin Nuan's ears. She withdrew her right hand and weakly ran her fingers through her hair.
