WfDO- Chapter 30

Arc 2
The Vicious Supporting Female with Unbridled Love (11)

Zhong Shen turned around and walked away under Zhang Kexin’s surprised eyes.

In one night, almost everyone knew Ye Wei had changed from loving to hating Zhong Shen to the bone. It was said she was the one who sold the photos of Zhong Shen and Shen Yingying to the media, which directly caused Zhong-shi to lose hundreds of millions. Zhong Shen discovered the truth and had a quarrel with her. Since then, they had completely broken up and couldn’t stand the sight of each other!

“Kexin-jie, aren’t you the one that disliked Ye Wei and Zhong Shen’s engagement the most? Now they have completely fallen out, why do you look so unhappy?”

“Yes, Kexin-jie, cheers up! If you want me to say, we should open some champagne and celebrate! Since Ye Wei got engaged to Zhong Shen, she has been extremely arrogant! Like a peacock spreading its tail’s feathers! The engagement is now terminated, see if she can still act arrogant!”

“Though, I wondered what tricks that cheap Shen Yingying used to seduce Zhong Shen. All this time I thought Zhong Shen didn’t understand feelings like love. But, turns out, he is just like any other man, a scum.”

“He likes her now, but will it last? Can Shen Yingying really marry into the Zhong-jia?”

“Kexin… Kexin? I’m talking to you, why are you spacing out?

Zhang Kexin was spacing out because of that scheming bitch Ye Wei. She pondered over and over about this matter. She felt something was wrong. She and Ye Wei were not on good terms ever since they knew of each other’s existence. Even so, with her understanding of Ye Wei, there was no way for her to give up on Zhong Shen just like this.

There was probably nothing in the world that could make Ye Wei give up Zhong Shen. It was impossible for her to give up Zhong Shen, let alone expose her selfish and vicious side to Zhong Shen.

Even if it was exposed, she would never admit to it. She would definitely resist and defend herself to death. 

Even if there was a Shen Yingying, it wouldn’t be enough reason for Ye Wei to give up Zhong Shen.

Ye Wei was selfish. Ye Wei was pretentious. She refused to accept any defeat. She definitely could maim Shen Yingying to death. To grab Zhong Shen back to her side, she would use all means.

Although Zhang Kexin didn’t like that scheming bitch Ye Wei, she understood her well. Only she knew how surprised she was when Ye Wei admitted that she did those things in front of Zhong Shen and told him that she was repulsed by him, hated him, and couldn’t see the sight of him. 

And it was probably not only her that got surprised, Zhong Shen must be surprised as well. 

She remembered Zhong Shen frozen on the spot with wide eyes. He looked a little sluggish and couldn’t believe what he heard. That was an emotion she had never seen on Zhong Shen’s face. She felt novel for a while and couldn’t help but glance at it again.

Zhang Kexin herself couldn’t believe it. After watching Zhong Shen’s stunned face, she realized she should be happy! This was a good opportunity for her to dig the pit deeper for Ye Wei, “Zhong Shen, do you believe what I said now? I didn’t lie to you. Ye Wei is the one who did it. You see, she even admitted it.”

“Zhong Shen, now you can see Ye Wei’s true face clearly. She is very vicious. What she can’t get, she will destroy. You have to be careful. ”

Zhong Shen didn’t respond. He just raised an eyebrow. Looking at her with those deep eyes, as if he was looking at others through her.

“Kexin-jie, after Zhong Shen personally heard Ye Wei admit the thing she did, did Zhong Shen say anything? Does he get angry? The angry kind that looks very scary as if he can eat people!”

Zhong Shen did not. The man just stood for a while and left. After a brief gaffe, he returned to his former indifference, which made people unable to see the slightest abnormality.

Still, Zhang Kexin knew that it was impossible for Zhong Shen to be indifferent about this. She was only not sure what he was thinking, did he hate Ye Wei?

If that was so, that would be great for her! But… “Why did you think Ye Wei admitted it? I don’t think this is as simple as it looks…”

“Isn’t it because she got caught on the spot? She can only admit it. Kexin-jie, don’t think too much about it. Ye Wei has admitted it herself. She is now a vicious woman who hates because of love. Zhong Shen has seen her true face, even if she has tricks left under her sleeve, will Zhong Shen still want her?”

Why does it make sense… Zhong Shen had no feelings for Ye Wei. He might have felt a little guilty before, but now perhaps even that guilt was gone.

On this thought, Zhang Kexin was happy again. Anyway, if Ye Wei didn’t have a good time, she would be happy. This round, she was the winner!

As the winner, she wouldn’t pass up the chance to send the most intimate greetings to her defeated enemy. Hoping for her with the words ‘Don’t get angry or discouraged.  Keep making persistent efforts, Ye Wei!’

It wasn’t easy to see Ye Wei these days because she didn’t go out much on the pretext of recuperating at home. She didn’t even attend any party. 

Zhang Kexin nodded her head. Ye Wei was definitely hiding, not only that, she must have been crying all day in her house!  She must be as forlorn as it is forlorn and as painful as it is painful! What a miserable woman! She has been chasing people for decades without shame. All her means had been exhausted yet the man didn’t look back at her even once. Instead, he was indifferent and probably hated her now. She clearly couldn’t bear it. 

Thinking about this, the little followers felt pity toward Ye Wei and shed tears of bitterness for her.

“Ye Wei is so pitiful. How about we go and visit her in person? Expressing our concern.”

That’s a good idea. Zhang Kexin clapped her hands.“Let’s go tomorrow, but we have to go separately, otherwise, she will think that we are visiting her to see her embarrassment. It would be bad and not conducive to her recuperation. ”

So, the next day, as Zhang Kexin and the little followers discussed, they visited Ye Wei separately. 

One little follower entered the Ye-jia first. Zhang Kexin waited outside for about ten minutes. Her patience was exhausted. She sent her a few messages and asked how the situation was inside. A few moments later, a reply came, see it for yourself, quick!

She seemed very excited and couldn’t wait to watch the excitement together!

Zhang Kexin endured it and asked her other two followers to go in together. After waiting for a while, Zhang Kexin received two messages urging her to go in quickly.

Zhang Kexin couldn’t endure it anymore. She walked into the Ye-jia carrying a small cake in her hand.

She already expected it so she wasn’t surprised. The whole Ye-jia was extremely quiet. Even the housemaids were careful not to make noises as if afraid someone would be unhappy because of the sound..

Zhang Kexin was secretly happy. Seems like Ye Wei lost her temper at home. 

She didn’t tell Ye Wei she was coming to visit her. Ye Wei was a very proud person. If she knew that Zhang Kexin was going to visit her, there was no doubt she wouldn’t allow her inside. So she just went head-on to Ye-jia without telling Ye Wei. With a surprise visit like this, Ye Wei couldn’t hide and must let her in. 

“I came to visit Ye Wei, is she home?”

“She is. Zhang-xiaojie, please follow me.”

Zhang Kexin was anticipating Ye Wei’s pained expression. She even thought of how to ‘comfort’ her, “How is Ye Wei’s health? I haven’t seen her for quite a while. I’m a little worried so I came here to visit her. What has she been doing recently? ”

Auntie Zhang couldn’t stop talking. She shook her head helplessly, “Ye Wei-xiaojie’s body has always been like this, and it is impossible to get better completely. She can only get better by a little. Ai, you’ll know when you look at it yourself. ”

Zhang Kexin pretended to sigh, “Ye Wei is really pitiful. It’s not easy for her to get engaged to someone she likes, yet it’s turned out like this…”

Must you say it out loud…?

They soon arrived at Ye Wei’s bedroom. Zhang Kexin thought she would see Ye Wei lying on the bed with a bunch of people sitting near her bed. Who knew that when she went in, she found that Ye Wei was not on the bed at all. Instead, her eyes were nearly blinded by the light in her room. She squinted her eyes and blocked the light with her hand. 

When she opened her eyes again, she saw the oh-so-pitiful Ye Wei wearing a white evening dress, with a set of rubies on her body, and exquisite and beautiful makeup on her face, without the slightest forlornness!

Her skin was so fair that it was almost transparent, her whole person was dazzling as if she was shining. When she smiles brilliantly, her bright eyes would curve. She was like a fairy descending from heaven… Bah, bah, bah! 

It didn’t stop there, Ye Wei was surrounded by about seven or eight makeup artists and styling assistants. This daxiaojie was ostentatious, clearly parading her wealth!

Auntie Zhang shook her head sadly, “Ai, our Ye-jia’s xiaojie is really pitiful…”

Zhang Kexin, “……”   

Which part of her is pitiful?

Which part of her should she pity?

She was spending her money frivolously, which part of her should she pity! Moreover, Ye Wei’s complexion was extremely good, her complexion was ruddy and healthy. She was less morbid than before. Her whole person looked elated. 

Wasn’t it said she was so forlorn?

Wasn’t it said she was so painful she didn’t want to meet people?

And at this time she discovered that her little followers were sitting next to each other, obediently sitting in a row near Ye Wei. When she saw them, their faces were instantly filled with smiles.

“So Kexin-jie also comes to visit. Here, here. Please take a seat.”

“Who knows all of you will accidentally make an appointment to visit me at the same time, what a coincidence…”

“Yes, hahaha.“

Zhang Kexin forced out a smile, “Yes, what a coincidence. ”

Ye Wei smiled back, “This is probably the so-called fate in the legend.”

Ha-ha.

Zhang Kexin ground her teeth. She was at loss. Where were the jokes that she came to watch? 

She gave her little followers a wink, what’s happened here?

What else happened?

Of course, they didn’t want to suffer alone. God knows that their eyes were about to fall off when they saw Ye Wei!

The little follower said, “Kexin-jie, don’t you think the rubies on Ye Wei are so beautiful, it suited her so much. Especially when it is matched with her complexion. You think so too, right?”

Zhang Kexin observed the rubies. It seemed familiar… wait! Weren’t those rubies the ones that she liked before but she didn’t dare to buy?!

It was priced at tens of millions yuan, Ye Wei actually bought it and wore it in front of her?!

Ha, what a delicate xiaojie! Was she not afraid to crush her delicate body with those highly-priced rubies?!

The corner of Zhang Kexin’s lips twitched, “Ye Wei, why don’t you take a good rest? Why would you bear to toss your body like this?”

Ye Wei sat there, rubbing her forehead as if she was really tired, and said, “Water. ”

The little assistant on the side immediately brought the cup of water to Ye Wei’s mouth. She only needed to open her mouth and take a sip with a straw without even lifting her hand, “I’m a little tired, so I’ll rest for a while. Thank you for visiting me.”

What’s the difference between her resting or not?! The two little assistants next to her were still rubbing her shoulders and massaging her legs. The snacks and fruits were delivered into her mouth with delicate forks and she looked accustomed to it. Her posture was comparable to that of the Empress Dowager! The kitchen even delivered more snacks and fruits to the room!

“I didn’t expect you to care so much about me and come to visit me. Kexin, you are a good person.”

“I’m in a bad mood recently, and I haven’t gone out much. I’m getting moldy at home with no one to chat with. I’m really happy that you visited. Now, I have someone to chat with.”

“Do you think I have lost a lot of weight?”

“Do I not look as good as before? Ai…”

Zhang Kexin, “……”   

Everyone present, “……”   

What lost weight? What doesn’t look as good as before?

Zhang Kexin hehe’ed,“Zhong Shen’s face looked ugly that day, you know. It was the first time I saw him like that. Of course, it’s normal for you to worry and not rest well. ”

Ye Wei also hehe’ed, “Yes ah. Zhong Shen must not have thought that the two women who liked him so much actually teamed up to dig a pit for him. If it was me, I would also be very disappointed. Kexin, it’s alright for me if Zhong Shen doesn’t forgive me, but what about if he doesn’t forgive you? No, Zhong Shen will definitely forgive you. No matter how you say it, you can be regarded as ’abandoning the dark side and turning to the light side’. You made the right choice and helped him find the culprit who harmed him and Shen Yingying. He is a sensible person. He will not embarrass you too much.”

“Ah, what am I doing worrying about you? In his eyes, you are a good person who knows your mistakes and repents. You are thousands of times better than me.”

Zhang Kexin, “Hehe, don’t worry about it. I’m sure Zhong Shen will also forgive you. After all, you hate him because you love him. Think about it. You paid so much for him and finally had the opportunity to get married, but at the last minute, he likes someone else. It’s normal if you can’t hold it back and get angry.”

Ye Wei, “Kexin, thank you for speaking out for me. You’re so reasonable. If you see Zhong Shen next time, you must tell him what you said just now. The things I did were because he and Shen Yingying forced me, I was involuntary!”

Zhang Kexin, “……” This scheming bitch’s face was too thick-skinned

Everyone present, “……”

Ye Wei was relieved, “Okay, let’s chat later. I want to change the jewelry set. Will you help me choose and see which one is more beautiful?”

Zhang Kexin, “Have a rest, what use of jewelry if your body is not good. Take care of your body.”

Hehe, ‘help her choose’? She was clearly showing off!

Ye Wei’s eyes turned crescent, “Thank you, but it’s alright.  This little thing is nothing, I can stand it. It’s more important to choose jewelry.”

Wasn’t she going to die soon?  She wanted to die beautifully, not to die too hideously, so as not to cause unnecessary physical and mental harm to Male Lead like before.

According to the plot, she was going to die in the arms of Male Lead. At such a close distance, even the pores on her face could be seen. How scary would she be if she coughed up blood or something to her face!

Just thinking about it like this, Ye Wei couldn’t help worrying.

At the next moment, Zhang Kexin and her little followers watched Ye Wei change into several sets of priceless jewelry one after another. There were precious gems, diamonds, and pearls. Whether they were beautiful, elegant, or noble, each piece was valuable and made people jealous.

There was no need for her to do anything, as long as she sat there, someone would serve her.

So say, which asshole dared to say that Ye Wei was forlorn and in so much pain again?

When Zhang Kexin left Ye-jia, she was so angry she could spit blood. 

“No! Ye Wei is trying to confuse us! She doesn’t want to lose face. She must be in so much pain that she can die at any moment. She only pretended it was nothing on the surface! Ha, I know her too well. This scheming bitch thinks she can trick me again!”

Zhang Kexin felt that this was the truth.

When her little followers thought about it, what Zhang Kexin said was really reasonable.

Who didn’t know that Ye Wei liked Zhong Shen? Now she hated him because she loved him, she must be full of resentment. How could she smile?

So what they saw today was an illusion, a disguise.

That’s right, that’s it. That’s must be it!

“Plus, it will be the 80th birthday of the Liu-jia’s Elder^[1] in a few days. Ye Wei is in such a hurry to choose jewelry. She must be preparing for that day. Haha, Ye Wei, this scheming bitch wants to show off on that day! ”

The Liu-jia was also a famous family in the Imperial Capital. Naturally, the celebrities and politicians in the Imperial Capital would go there at that time. Whether they would be making friends with the powerful or wanting to be in the limelight, they would definitely use all means to reap benefits on that day.

Zhang Kexin didn’t want Ye Wei to succeed, she also had to prepare well for that day.

“What is Ye Wei doing recently?”

“Ye-xiaojie went to a charity party with Wei-furen^[2] yesterday.”

Zhong Shen raised his head to look at Zhou Hai. Zhou Hai told him, “Ye-xiaojie directly went home after the party.”

Zhong Shen paused. He lowered his eyes and continued to look at the documents in his hand.

Recently, Ye Wei seemed to have become active. Before, she didn’t like those activities at all. She found it troublesome and she didn’t like those fake socializing. Now, she has changed a lot. She often followed Wei Fengqiong to various parties like this.

Zhong Shen met Ye Wei twice on those occasions. She was no longer infatuated with him. As she said, she was repulsed, hated him, and couldn’t stand the sight of his face. So. when she saw him, she didn’t have a good face. Cold and indifferent, like he was nothing in her eyes.

He didn’t know what to do about this. He wanted to talk to Ye Wei, but Ye Wei said, “Sorry, I don’t have time.”

Zhong Shen remembered that he was like this to her before. Cold and indifferent, rejecting her using this reason. 

It was weird. He thought, whatever she did, it wouldn’t matter to him. But… Why did his heart feel strange?

A few days passed in a flash, and it was the birthday of Liu-jia’s Elder.

Zhang Kexin got up early in the morning to prepare. In order to show her perfect figure, she hadn’t eaten anything for a day and only drank some water. She was so hungry that even walking felt like floating.

She endured her hunger and sent messages to her little followers, asking them where they had been and if they had seen Ye Wei?

“I didn’t see Ye Wei, but I saw someone amazing here! Guess who? Shen Yingying!”

“Shen Yingying?”

Zhang Kexin couldn’t hide her shock, “She is a waiter there? Show it to me, I will come right away.”

“No, Shen Yingying isn’t a waiter. She is Liu Xian’s companion!”

Liu Xian was Liu-lao^[3]’s grandson. How come Shen Yingying knew him?

“… What? How come she is so powerful?! “

What should I do? I want to worship her as my teacher.
