Yun Yuanfeng stopped the car on the street right in front of the school entrance. Just as Yun Xi was about to open her door to get out, a black sports car pulled up next to her.
The car had pulled up very fast, slamming on its brakes at the last minute, and Yun Xi had almost slammed her car door right into it.
Annoyed, she looked up and saw Jiang Henglin’s handsome face, with sunglasses on, at the driver’s window.
Upon seeing that it had been him who’d scared her, Yun Xi couldn’t control her anger.
If she’d been one minute faster getting out of the car, she could have been hit.
“Jiang Henglin, are you brainless or simply blind? That was so reckless, you’re lucky no innocent people got killed!”
“Are you crazy? Do you plan on becoming Mrs. Jiang with that bad temper of yours?”
He made this frivolous comment with condescending contempt in his tone, so Yun Xi fired back in the same rude manner.
“Pfff, with your virtue, it’s no wonder that you are a laughingstock when compared to the other heirs of the four major clans! Although your eldest brother is frail and sick, at least he is handsome and elegant. All of Jingdu knows that you are the second heir of the Jiang family, but when people talk about the four heirs, you are rarely ever mentioned.”
“How dare you! Wretched girl, you better shut up.” Jiang Henglin’s face got purple as she mentioned this.
This was his greatest insecurity, and Yun Xi, that brazen wretched girl, dared to sprinkle salt on his wounds.
Ever since childhood, he had absolutely despised being with his sickly brother.
If people had said that his sickly brother wasn’t as good as he was, at least he would have had the excuse that he was weak.
But actually Jiang Qilin was better than he was in everything. In terms of achievements and skills, he seemed better equipped to become the heir of the Jiang family, while his sickness had seemed to put the position beyond his reach.
Yun Xi sneered as she saw his face change colors.
With her memories from both her lives, she knew her “fake friend” Jiang Henglin quite well.
Jiang Qilin, the eldest and original heir of the Jiang family, was frail and sickly, but he was indeed a worldly and highly competent elite gentleman.
Compared with his elder brother, except for being more healthy, Jiang Henglin was nowhere near as good.
Having lived in the shadow of his elder brother ever since he was a child, every time someone mentioned Jiang Qilin, Jiang Henglin got enraged and felt insecure.
“Second Young Master Jiang, if you want to be respected by others, you must respect others first.”
“You? Are you worthy of it?” Jiang Henglin sneered slightly with a look of disdain.
“Your mother and your sister came to my family’s house to beg me for help yesterday. However, with your attitude, do you still expect me to help your family through its difficulties?”
Yun Xi raised her eyebrows. “They went to beg you, but I’m not going to beg you. If they beg you for help, I am positive the old man will use his cane to whip you if you dare to help them. But I am different. I am your fiancee. If I plead for leniency, the old man definitely won’t refuse.”
“That’s right! I don’t know what’s wrong with Grandpa for him to like a vicious girl like you so much!”
Jiang Henglin raised his chin with an arrogant expression on his face. “If you beg me, perhaps I will consider helping.”
When Yun Xi saw Jiang Henglin’s smug expression, she immediately poured a bucket of cold water over him. “But that’s too bad, since I simply don’t want to beg you. So crawl back wherever you came from.”
Upon seeing her refusing him so ungratefully, Jiang Henglin was taken aback. He suddenly took off his sunglasses. “You! Aren’t you afraid that your father’s company will find out, and your family will end up in the gutter?”
“Even so, that’s the Yun family’s business, and none of your business!”
“Yun Xi! Don’t be so shamelessly ungrateful.”
“I didn’t ask to be your charity case, besides I deserve better. So don’t even think about making me beg you for anything.”
Too lazy to talk any more nonsense with this arrogant spoiled brat, Yun Xi turned and walked directly toward the school gates, leaving Jiang Henglin behind with a bewildered look on his face.
“You wretched girl!”
Upon being ignored and severely humiliated by her, Jiang Henglin felt so angry that he punched the steering wheel.
He’d thought that with the current situation of her family, if he’d said a few words and that girl had begged him as a result, he might help the Yun family, according to his grandfather’s orders.
But who knew that wretched girl would be so shamelessly ungrateful.
Since she’d been so shamelessly ungrateful, he decided to wait to see how cocky she’d be when she had nowhere else to turn.
