Chapter 6 Sorry (6)

"You heartless thing, you ruthless and cold-blooded, how could you treat me this way? If you despised me for not having money, you should never have bothered with me in the first place. When I was with you, I wasn't even eighteen yet, I gave you my first time, how could you be so cruel and heartless... As soon as you made it a bit, you dumped your devoted wife."

Qin Youbei, talented in both singing and acting, wept as if pearls were falling from a snapped string, then turned her head to look at the people around, "You all tell me, give me some justice here."

Her body swaying as if she could faint at any moment, seemingly furiously angry, eyes brimming with tears, she raised a hand to her face as if she couldn't bear to show it to anyone.

Because of this gesture, Gu Xiao's grip on her hand also loosened a bit.

"Wow! The scum of scumbags."

"What's the use of good looks on a man like that, when his heart is so ugly?"

Abandoning his wife was the utmost offense to them.

Confronted by Qin Youbei's heart-wrenching sobs and the accusations from the onlookers, Gu Xiao's gaze swept over them with icy sharpness.

Those who were there for the gossip, and who were indignantly munching on melon seeds, all felt a chill and shut their mouths instinctively.

Taking advantage of this, Qin Youbei dropped her arm and used a clever move to break away, then ran off faster than lightning.

When Gu Xiao looked at her, she was moving through the crowd, turning back to wave and smile at him, mouthing the words, "See you never in the rivers and lakes!"

A muscular man with a resolute face made his way through the crowd and stood beside Gu Xiao, asking in warning, "Young Master Wu, should I go after her?"

"She can't escape," Gu Xiao raised an eyebrow and mocked with a deep, mellow voice, "Get me her information, all of it!"

Qin Youbei had to admit that bumping into Mr. No-Brains today was a total fluke... Why call him Mr. No-Brains? Because he thinks with his lower half.

In such a situation back then, the fact that he actually... Forget it, just treat it as her unlucky day.

Anyway, she didn't often go to that kind of upscale Western restaurant and had now decided to steer clear of them for at least the next three years, thereby ensuring she wouldn't run into Mr. No-Brains again.

But just in case, to prevent the off chance that she had that kind of dog-shit luck and bumped into Mr. No-Brains again, she immediately went to the hair salon and got herself a cute, straight-across fringe.

And she also picked out a pair of large, black-rimmed glasses that sat on the bridge of her nose.

Looking at her reflection in the mirror, her new look was vastly different from her original appearance.

If she walked down the street, even people she knew might not recognize her, she believed Mr. No-Brains definitely wouldn't recognize her either.

She was quite pleased with herself and mentally gave herself a thumbs-up for her intelligence and wisdom.

Qin Youbei was a manga enthusiast, and not just any enthusiast but a die-hard fan.

Her favorite pastime was reading manga; usually, when she had nothing to do, no classes, she would take a manga book and spend a leisurely afternoon in the park next to the school.

As usual, Qin Youbei arrived at the park, found a very inconspicuous spot to sit down, picked up a newly released manga book and began to read with relish.

Just as she was getting engrossed, suddenly someone blocked her view.

Lifting her eyes and seeing a pair of long, straight legs, Qin Youbei felt they were familiar... they seemed to be... Mr. No-Brains's legs.

Startled, Qin Youbei looked up instinctively, and there he was, the man from her thoughts.

What the hell!

Meeting an enemy on a narrow road was one thing, but this was something else. It hadn't even been 24 hours and here she was, running into Mr. No-Brains again...
