The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 23: That Guy Really Deserves a Beating

Han Xi glanced in Shi Yu’s direction; that guy was definitely asking for a beating, but for Chu Ci’s sake, now was absolutely not the time to blow things up.

Perhaps feeling the scorching gaze from behind, Shi Yu turned around and was stunned the moment he saw Li Manman and Han Xi, his face gradually turning pale.

Han Xi looked at Shi Yu, took out his phone from his pocket, and sent Shi Yu a text message: [See you at the gazebo in the back garden in ten minutes.]

After sending the text, he dragged Li Manman out.

Shi Yu made an excuse about having something to do and left as well. As soon as Li Manman saw Shi Yu, she started punching and kicking: "You heartless scumbag, sneaking around behind Chu Ci’s back to cheat. How do you face Chu Ci? She’s been so good to you, putting all her thoughts on you, and now you’re hooking up with another woman."

Shi Yu just stood there without moving, letting Li Manman hit and scold him.

When she was too tired to hit and too exhausted to scold, Li Manman squatted on the ground and started crying, as if she herself had just broken up.

Are all the loves that come out of campus so unreliable?

One after another, they’re all like this. Han Xi was like this, and now Chu Ci is also like this. Maybe pure love doesn’t exist at all? Or perhaps men are just too unreliable.

"Shi Yu, are you planning to keep this from Chu Ci? Today, Manman and I caught you; what about next time? If Chu Ci finds out, how are you going to explain it to her? What do you really take her for? Is she your woman or just a plaything that you can discard at will?"

Han Xi harshly accused him, feeling it unfair for Chu Ci.

"The company is facing financial problems, and only a marriage alliance between the Shi Family and the Li Family can overcome this crisis."

Shi Yu clenched his fists; if it weren’t for being compelled, he wouldn’t have made such a choice.

Han Xi’s lips curled into a faint smile, tinged with sarcasm in his cold voice: "All those years of feelings with Chu Ci lost to money, Shi Yu, I look down on you."

Sure enough, love means nothing in the face of money and profit.

"Who do you think you are to look down on Shi Yu? What can Chu Ci offer Shi Yu?"

Li Chuxia stood against the light, her seductive makeup making her look incredibly sexy and charming, like a dazzling red rose.

Han Xi looked at this woman with contempt, speaking each word clearly: "You are the mistress. What right do you have to flaunt here? Is having money so great? Are you sure this man really loves you?"

Li Chuxia coyly hooked her arm around Shi Yu’s and smiled nonchalantly: "Are you saying Shi Yu has registered and married that Chu Ci?"

"You’ve got some nerve. Even as a mistress, you can be so shameless."

Li Chuxia raised her fair hand, covering her lips with a light smile: "From today on, who the mistress is could really be anyone’s guess." freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Squatting on the ground, Li Manman was already rejuvenated by Li Chuxia’s provocation. She stood up, grabbed her shoulder bag, and swung it at Li Chuxia: "I’ll beat you to death, you shameless tramp. How dare you compare yourself to Chu Ci? This man is after your family’s money, and you really think you’re some goddess descended to earth."

Li Manman was always straightforward and aggressive, resorting to action when words weren’t enough.

Of course, Li Chuxia wasn’t one to be trifled with either; grabbing Li Manman’s hair, the two began to fight.

Han Xi and Shi Yu didn’t want to make a scene, so they could only step in to pull the two apart. Who would have thought Li Chuxia would make a sneaky move on Han Xi, giving her a hard push from behind? Han Xi lost her balance, about to fall, when her body suddenly crashed into a solid chest.
