Chapter 657: Battle Between The Ladies (Part One)

Lin Chuxue followed Elder Ye as they went around the banquet and toasted at more than a hundred tables. Of course, the ones they toasted had to drink all the wine up, while Elder Ye and Lin Chuxue didnt need to do so; they couldnt or else they wouldnt be able to make it to so many tables.

Lin Chuxue found that a woman from a certain table was rather interesting.

She was around the same age

as her, about twenty-four or twenty-five years old with a straight bob-cut to

the shoulders, and she looked very neat and beautiful.

Lin Chuxue was sure she had never seen this woman before, but she felt hostility from this womans eyes.

It was an inexplicable hostility, which could only be detected between women with their sixth sense.

When she saw that this woman was sitting at the table that belonged to the Xing Family, Lin Chuxue immediately guessed that she should be the granddaughter that Elder Xing was talking about.

This is the first time since childhood that a man has rejected me. After she came over to make a toast with Lin Chuxue, her gaze subconsciously landed on Xu Cheng, who was sitting with the elderly. She sounded confident and said self-assuredly, But I think its because he doesnt know me well enough, or more like he hasnt met me yet.

Having said that, she then turned to Lin Chuxue, and their eyes met with a kind of hostility as she said, Youre even more beautiful than I thought you were.

Thank you. Lin Chuxue accepted her compliment.

But do you think that beauty is everything? she suddenly changed her attitude and asked Lin Chuxue directly.

She then continued, Ive read your profile, a talented girl with musical strength and acting skills side by side. However, someone like you who is used to going out and being served by assistants, do you know how to take care of a man?

When Lin Chuxue understood

what was behind her words, she smiled and did not want to escalate the

situation; because it was to be an elegant confrontation between the two.

How should I address you?

My name is Xing Zhener. As my name suggests, I work with criminal investigation. You dont need to introduce yourself, investigating you is also part of my job, Xing Zhener said straightforwardly.

Strong character!

That was one of the first impressions Lin Chuxue had thought about this woman upon their first conversation, and she was decisive, forthright, yet sharp, as if she was examining a criminal.

Miss Xing seems to have some opinions about me?

Do I? Xing Zhener did not deny it. Perhaps, but I just want to see what kind of woman can make Xu Cheng reject a woman like me with such a good family background. To be honest, ever since childhood, the number of people coming to my family to propose marriage could crush the doorstep, but I have never really met a man who would reject me and did not even take a look at me properly when I took the initiative to court him instead.

Actually, I can answer this question in place of my husband. Lin Chuxue smiled. Its not to say that there are men in the world who are more capable and more handsome than my husband, but even if they come after me, I wont even look at them in the right eye. The reason being the same, because a lovers eyes cant tolerate a trace of sand.

Xing Zhener: Thats why Im wondering, which quality of yours attracted him to be willing to give up such a wonderful opportunity? Honestly, if he was willing to marry me, he could move up the ranks in this country from his current position, and with me as his companion, he could be very successful. I wonder if youre acting with him as well? Youre the one whos won the best actress award.

Chapter 657: Battle Between The Ladies (Part Two)

No wonder youre working in criminal investigation, you have a big imagination. However, theres one thing I need to tell you: where do you think acting comes from? Life is like a play, and a play is like life. An old actor once said, when you cant cry and cant act, theres nothing to teach, but they can only try to try to manually bring you into the situation to get you engaged. How can someone be truly engaged? That would be to slap you in the face and make you cry for real. Only when you experience pain, youll be able to cry; and similarly, only under the same touching situation will the acting be natural. My acting all comes from what happened to me and my life, and all of that has to do with my husband.

Miss Xing, I know that your self-esteem received a blow in this rejection, but I want to tell you that Xu Cheng may not be suitable for you. Lin Chuxue continued, Perhaps you are better than me in all aspects, and you come from a decent family, and perhaps you could help Xu Cheng in politics, social status, and literatures, so thats why you have questioned me on this point, but there is one thing that I have and no one else has.

Xing Zhener: What is it?

A thorough understanding of Xu Cheng. Lin Chuxue had an elegant and confident smile. I have experienced the darkness of his childhood and the up and downs of his life. It has been a rough ride, so only I understand what he wants. Youre right, I dont have your resources to give him anything more, but what you can offer him, he is able to fight for that himself and he will get what he wants. In fact, he does not need his woman to be strong, nor for her to be thoughtful in every way; who he wants is just someone who can understand him and appreciate everything he does. That at times when things quiet down, theres a woman who will listen to his stories.

Xing Zhener stared at Lin

Chuxue for a long time and finally spoke up, Grandpa told me that youre

not as simple as you look. After seeing you today, Ive certainly

underestimated you, youre not just a pretty vase.

Lin Chuxue smiled and held

up her glass as she followed Elder Ye to the next table.

After Xing Zhener sat down,

her nave sister sneered. What are you doing talking to her like that?

Theyre already married, and youre the third party with a reason?

Xing Zhener glared at her

own sister. Do you think Im that shameless? This is a matter of dignity,

I was so ruthlessly rejected for the first time. That Xu Cheng did not even

look at me, he didnt even know who Xing Zhener was and he refused me. His

behavior and attitude were also saying that there was no room for discussion.

As someones whos part of the act, it would not be a smart move if I was to

confront him. So, what is the most clever technique? Its to compare with his

wife and crush her down comprehensively, making this man feel that who he cares

about is inferior to me! Thats the smartest way to counter the humiliation.

What do you know, kid?

I dont know

whats going on in your criminal investigation brain. Her sister said,

So did you just win or lose?

Xing Zhener coughed.

What do you think? Of course, no win nor lose.

Meanwhile, Xing Zheners father took a sip of white wine and smiled slightly. You went to humiliate her, but instead you were told by Miss Lin that you dont know how to love. You havent lost yet? Your IQ is high, but your EQ isnt enough to step on Miss Lin.

Dad! Xing Zhener called out angrily.

Her sister: This is the most embarrassing fight Ive seen with a third wheel losing to the real wife. You shouldve not jumped out at all and continued being a stranger, really.
