Chapter 527: Chapter 527: Even Cui Jiangjing Started to Talk Harshly
Almost as soon as Rong Yan left, Li Shengxiao stood up with the handsome little boy and said to Cui Jiangjing, “I’m going upstairs.”
“Go on, go on,” Cui Jiangjing waved his hand, not surprised at all.
Li Shengxiao led Little Baby upstairs without looking back.
Shen Siyuan watched the man’s tall and straight figure disappear, biting her lip as if she wanted to chase after him.
It was then that Cui Jiangjing stretched out his hand to block her path. His elegant face lost the usual frivolous smile as he sternly reprimanded her without mercy, “What are you trying to do? Do you think today wasn’t embarrassing enough?”
Shen Siyuan’s face lost its color from his scolding, and she bit her lip, trying to push his hand away, “It’s none of your business!”
Cui Jiangjing grabbed her arm, making her stand still, and said irritably, “You think I want to deal with you? If it weren’t for your brother’s sake, I wouldn’t care what you do. I’m neither your dad nor your mom!”
“Let me ask you, after causing such a scene for so long, to the point where everyone ignored you, did you find that enjoyable?”
Shen Siyuan felt so suffocated by his words that she shook off his hand, her eyes reddening with fury as she glared at him, “I just can’t accept it!”
To put it plainly, she just couldn’t accept it!
She might have felt better losing to someone on par with her. But why should she accept defeat to an eighteenth-tier actress?
Was it not normal for her not to want to admit defeat?
A vein on Cui Jiangjing’s forehead throbbed violently as he looked at her with frustration, lowering his voice, “There are many more things you can’t accept, will you struggle to win them all?”
Shen Siyuan pursed her lips tightly, twisting her stubbornness and remaining silent.
Cui Jiangjing truly didn’t know what to say to her anymore and could only bring himself to say something harsh, “Siyuan, the world doesn’t revolve around you, and not many people are going to indulge you. I’ll say it again, stop it. Don’t act up in front of Shengxiao anymore. If you keep it up, one day you will wear out Shengxiao’s last bit of patience, and then all you’ll have left is crying.”
By then, no one would be able to help her!
Shen Siyuan’s eyes reddened, and with a wavering shimmer, she opened her mouth to retort, “Shengxiao will never treat me like you said. You’re just doing this for Rong Yan, deliberately making things difficult for me! Do you think that by saying this I will let go of Shengxiao? I will not let go! Mrs. Lin has just been blinded for the moment, unaware of that woman’s situation. Once Mrs. Lin finds out, she will not agree to that woman’s presence either.”
Cui Jiangjing couldn’t bother arguing with her and didn’t want to tell her that Li Duidui was Rong Yan’s child. Seeing her obdurate attitude, he simply snapped, “Whatever you want!”
“I’ve said what I needed to, and even what I didn’t. If you won’t listen, there’s nothing I can do. As I said, think it over. You are still our sister, but if you can’t come to terms with it, maybe this relationship will truly fade.”
Shen Siyuan opened her mouth in disbelief, “Are you saying you want to cut ties with me? Just for some ridiculous woman? Don’t tell me you like her too!”
Cui Jiangjing wasn’t angry before, but on hearing her words, he frowned, “Don’t talk nonsense. If Shengxiao hears this, he might think it’s true. I’m taking your side, which is why I’m saying all this. If I didn’t care, I would have just let you embarrass yourself earlier, enjoying the spectacle.”
Shen Siyuan then remembered her earlier humiliation, feeling even more mortified.
Cui Jiangjing didn’t want to criticize her further, so he left her with, “Just think about it.”
Then he went to tell the butler that he had to leave early due to other matters.
