To Qin Huailing, Yuan Shuangrui was simply useless.
However, after getting to know her during his youth, he had observed her closely and now understood her personality well. He knew what bothered her the most and also how to mess with her mentally.
Hearing that Qin Huailing wanted her to return to his side, Yuan Shuangrui was simply taken aback. "Qin Huailing, what are you trying to do? We have nothing to do with each other now."
The more frightened Yuan Shuangrui was, the calmer Qin Huailing became. "But you've promised me before. I still kept the things you gave me. It's clear how much I missed you, and I know you missed me too. Otherwise, you won't be so shocked to see me."
"Qin Huailing, we were still young back then. Our words meant nothing. Besides, I have a fiancé now."
Yuan Shuangrui's firm tone made Qin Huailing rather upset. Narrowing his eyes, he said, "Shuangrui, you merely have a fiancé. You aren't married. You can just kick him away and choose me instead."
Qin Huailing's tone was calm, as though he was simply talking about the weather.
However, it made Yuan Shuangrui stumble backwards in shock. "You've lost your mind."
"No, I have not. You're the one who has. Shuangrui, you miss me and you love me, so you shouldn't be together with your fiancé." Thinking of what Yuan Shuangrui and his aunt had done to him back then, he couldn't ignore the hatred in his heart.
Yuan Shuangrui thought that Qin Huailing had completely gone insane. The Qin Huailing in front of him now was a far cry from the elegant youth that she used to know. In her memories, that youth was pure and untainted, talented, and had a great personality.
However, Qin Huailing radiated a sinister aura now, and it made her feel as though she had fallen into an icy river.
Yuan Shuangrui took a deep breath and answered, "Qin Huailing, what do you want? I don't like you. I've long forgotten about you."
"But I haven't." He hadn't forgotten about her wickedness and everything she did to him and the Qin family.
Qin Huailing uttered those words in his mind.
Yuan Shuangrui continued to stumble backwards. "No, there are plenty of wonderful women out there. You shouldn't be looking for me."
Qin Huailing scoffed. "There are plenty of great women out there, but a woman like you is one in a million."
Qin Huailing implied that a wicked woman like her was few.
But Yuan Shuangrui would never be able to tell. She was simply afraid that Qin Huailing would pester her, and even more afraid that Han Mubai would find out about what she did in the past to the Qin family.
At that moment, Yuan Shuangrui's face was so pale that it looked even whiter than the gown she was wearing.
On the other hand, Qin Huailing relished the changes on Yuan Shuangrui's face. He thought to himself, "This is just the beginning. I'll return everything back to you in the future."

On the second floor
The few ladies stuck their head out and took a peek, enjoying what they saw.
In particular, Tan Xinxuan was exceptionally excited. She lowered her voice and said quietly, "This is so unexpected. Look at Yuan Shuangrui's face. It's just too exciting. She looks even uglier than what we see on TV!"
"She's a joke. I think Young Master Qin is cool. Just a few words from him can shake Yuan Shuangrui so much."
"Yuan Shuangrui must think that she had gone through a lot of trouble to achieve her current status and become Young Master Han's fiancée. She naturally cannot allow Young Master Qin to tarnish her reputation."
"No matter how scared Yuan Shuangrui is, Young Master Han will still find out one day."
