Chapter 14 Degradation

  • Han Yiqiu’s glance went past Tuan Tuan and fixed on Yaxin, “Miss Xia, are you and your friend trying to cause trouble?”
  • Tuan Tuan’s anger roused when she heard that, just when she was about to speak her mind, Yaxin took the initiative and said to Han Yiqiu, giving her a botox smile, “Miss Han, what do you think we can gain from disturbing you?”
  • “Exactly!” Tuan Tuan assented.
  • “Well, why would I know?!” Han Yiqiu leered provocatively at Yaxin.
  • This haughty attitude of Han Yiqiu was really testing their patience. Tuan Tuan decided not to lay low anymore and challenged her, “If dignity is worth money, yours probably can buy a can of soda!”
  • This wealthy and spoiled lady had never been insulted all her life. She clenched her fists and her nose flared with fumes of anger.
  • “WHAT DID YOU SAY!?” She yelled furiously.
  • “Well, apparently not only are you behaving like a cat’s arse, but you’re deaf like one too.”
  • “You little…” Han Yiqiu was breathless with anger and she stomped hot-temperedly with her heels, “Haoyu, look at them, they are bullying me…”
  • All these dramas did not faze Mu one bit and he appeared to be completely undisturbed. With a light-hearted tone he told Han Yiqiu, “Yiqiu, why do you get upset because of them? Isn’t that degrading?”
  • Once again, Han Yiqiu’s face took a 180 degrees change, back to her sweetened look. She stuck out her chest and her nose flared in pride, “You are right! I shouldn’t bring myself low like this!”
  • And now the ball of insult was served right on back.
  • Tuan Tuan was still struggling to keep her anger in check while Yaxin had been showing her humourless smile.
  • “What should we do with this dress? And the dinner too!”
  • “Don’t worry, I’ll get you a new one later.”
  • “Thanks, Haoyu!” And Han Yiqiu gave him an immodest smooch on his cheek. Whilst doing so she leered belligerently at Yaxin.
  • Yaxin continued to stand still with her botox smile. She was perplexed by such undeserved hostility and pugnacious behaviour. What more, they have only met just ONCE…
  • Sigh, women trouble…
  • Tuan Tuan too, felt annoyed and a crawling urge for mischief. She drew out 20 dollars of change and shoved it in front of the couple. “Miss Han, however it may be, we would still like to offer a token of apology. Take this for the dry washing fee.”
  • Han Yiqiu frowned upon the petty notes, “20 dollars? You seriously think that’s enough?”
  • “Umm… No. But the problem is you are worth only this much!” And Tuan Tuan turned her head away victoriously and winked at Yaxin, “Yaxin, shall we?”
  • Yaxin continued to remain silent. She nodded happily and followed after her.
  • And now, raw anger thrummed within Han Yiqiu! She turned towards the two ladies but they had already gained some distance.
  • “If you lie down with dogs you get up with fleas! Such ill-mannered people!”
  • How dare they insult her like that! She etched this humiliation in her heart and swore to payback, but in the account of Xia Yaxin!
  • “Haoyu, look at them…” Han Yiqiu yanked his arms restively.
  • “There is no need to be unsettled with them. Be reminded, you are a prestigious lady. Why be bothered with them? Haoyu spelled out for her patiently.
