Chapter 294 - Best Friend Becomes A Mistress (1)

The moment the door was opened, the person who was greeted by Zhao Youxi was equally stunned. A trace of panic and guilt was shown on her face. She looked extremely pitiful. "Youxi, why are you…"

"I should be the one asking instead. Why are you here?! You…" Zhao Youxi's expression darkened as she looked at the young lady before her who was about the same age as her. The young lady was her cla.s.smate. Her name was Sun Qian.

Sun Qian and Zhao Youxi were cla.s.smates for many years. Sun Qian had a weak character, as well as a helpless, fragile appearance that could easily evoke someone's sympathy to develop tender affection for her at a single glance. Therefore, she took advantage of all these by clinging to the bossy and a.s.sertive Zhao Youxi.

Meanwhile, Zhao Youxi used Sun Qian to bring out her superiority, and Sun Qian used Zhao Youxi as someone who could cover up for her. The two soon became bosom friends, and even as close as siblings who have endless topics to share with..

However, Zhao Youxi never thought she would b.u.mp into Sun Qian at that moment and at that place.

Seeing Sun Qian wrapped in a bathrobe, Zhao Youxi subconsciously had a guess of her own. Yet, she was so afraid that she did not want to believe it.

'No way. It couldn't be. I must have searched for the wrong place. This could be Sun Qian's home. My father couldn't be here. She… She…'

Seeing that Sun Qian had not returned after standing at the door for some time, and also hearing the sound of arguments, the man who was originally sitting inside the house came over to them with creases between his eyebrows. He asked in a low voice, "Qian, what's going on? Why did you have to take so long to open the door?"

Zhao Youxi widened her eyes incredulously when she saw the man who was approaching them was also wearing a bathrobe. She was so heavily struck that she had to take a few steps back. Her face turned as white as a sheet.

Her finger was trembling as she pointed at Sun Qian and the man behind her. "You… You guys…"

"Youxi, why are you here?" Zhao Shuncheng was caught by surprise when he saw Zhao Youxi. The next moment, he seemed to have thought of something. His face darkened.

When Zhao Youxi heard the man calling her, she felt a chill creeping down her spine.

At that moment, she could no longer deceive herself. Her father and her best friend...

"You two… You wench! How dare… how dare you seduce my father?! Darn you! I want to kill you!" Zhao Youlin was boiled with rage. She could no longer hold back herself and screamed. She raised her hand and slapped Sun Qian. The next moment, she stretched out her hands and strangled her.

"Ahhh…! Big Brother Zhao, save me!" Sun Qian was so shocked that she kept screaming for help.

Zhao Shuncheng was caught off guard by the sudden events. He was dumbfounded. By the time he returned to his senses, he saw Zhao Youxi was strangling Sun Qian. Zhao Youxi looked so vicious that she could not wait to strangle Sun Qian to death on the spot.

Without giving a second thought, Zhao Shuncheng hurriedly dashed forward. He grabbed Zhao Youxi's hand and dragged her outside.

Sun Qian seized the opportunity. She immediately covered her cheek that had been slapped by Zhao Youxi and her reddened neck and threw herself into Zhao Shuncheng's arms. Her eyes were welled up in tears, and she cried pitifully, "Big Brother Zhao…"

Zhao Shuncheng's heart softened when he saw her current state. The way he looked at Zhao Youxi grew increasingly unfriendly. He comforted Sun Qian gently, "Qian, how are you? Are you hurt? Is it painful?"

The moment Sun Qian heard Zhao Shuncheng's words, she looked even more aggrieved. She did not say anything. She shook her head and buried herself into Zhao Shuncheng's arms deeply, she flawlessly brought out the character of a wench who pretended to look pure and innocent and had been bullied.

Zhao Youxi was boiled with rage when she saw Sun Qian's current look. She raised her hand and wanted to strike her again. Unfortunately, her wrist was tightly gripped by Zhao Shuncheng. Zhao Youxi got worked up. She could not hold back herself and shouted, "Father, let go of me! I want to strike the shameless wench to death for seducing a married man! Father…"

Upon hearing Zhao Youxi's words, Zhao Shuncheng's face turned black. Being referred to as a married man who had been seduced, the certain one felt that Zhao Youxi had scolded him as well. While he was about to get angry, Sun Qian, who was in his arms, spoke.

"Youxi, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have fallen in love with Big Brother Zhao. But, some things are really out of my control. Big Brother Zhao and I are truly in love with each other. If possible, I hope you could understand us. I don't want to lose a good friend like you, nor do I want to see you and your father not getting along with each other as well. If that happens, I feel like I am a sinner. Sobs…" While Sun Qian was speaking, she quickly lowered her head. Two lines of tears streamed down over her face. Seeing this, anyone would show affection for her out of pity.

'Good friend?!' Zhao Youxi really wanted to faint. Would a normal friend seduce her best friend's father and destroy her family, and at the end of the day, beg her so-called best friend to be thoughtful and forgive them?! How could she understand and forgive them? Her friend had become her father's secret lover, yet she asked her to forgive them. Did her friend think she was a saint?!

No one knew how regretful Zhao Youxi was at that moment. If she had known Sun Qian was a wench, she certainly would not have invited all her best friends to her birthday party at home, creating a chance for her to meet up with Zhao Shuncheng.

Zhao Youxi was very certain that that had been the beginning for the two. If not for that time, with Sun Qian's family background, she could not possibly have seen Zhao Shuncheng.

No wonder… no wonder she had felt that something was wrong with Sun Qian that night. Sun Qian kept stealing glances at a certain one in her house. So… So, at that time, she had already thought of ways to seduce his father.

Zhao Youxi was so angry that her eyes turned red. Apparently, she never thought her vanity to show off that she was better than others by inviting her friends to her house for her birthday party had created an opportunity for Sun Qian to take advantage of this.

In other words, she reaped what she sowed. This time, Zhao Youxi had to suffer her own consequences.

Zhao Youxi was very angry. She stared at Sun Qian. She gritted her teeth as she said, "All my life, befriending a shameless friend like you was the biggest blunder that I have made!"

"Youxi…"

"Enough!"

The noise of Sun Qian's pitiful cries blended in with Zhao Shuncheng's furious shout. Sun Qian immediately kept quiet. She hugged Zhao Shuncheng timidly, not letting go of him. After some time only did she recover her senses, and she realized Zhao Shuncheng was actually spitting fire at Zhao Youxi.

Zhao Shuncheng comforted Sun Qian by patting her shoulders. He then looked up at Zhao Youxi and said in an unfriendly tone, "Youxi, have you had enough of this?!"

Zhao Youxi widened her eyes so big and looked at Zhao Shuncheng incredulously. "Father, what did you say?"

"I said, have you had enough of all the fuss?! If there's nothing else, you should go back now. Don't stay here anymore. It's very displeasing in my eyes."

"Father, did you just say I'm displeasing in your eyes?" Zhao Youxi looked at the two back and forth. She suddenly let out a bark of laughter, "Father, you actually find me annoying for standing in your ways, huh?! You're siding with the wench and hating me for it. Darn it! Indeed, you're sc.u.m as well. How can you treat me like this?! How can you treat my mother like this?!"

Zhao Youxi was wailing while using the other hand which was free from Zhao Shuncheng's grip and struck him with all her might. Tears were rolling down from her eyes, suggesting a hint of despair.
