Chapter 4 What Goes Around Comes Around!

  • Kou Yan silently left the room, helping her close the door on the way out.
  • Man Yu was baffled. She coldly snorted and she changed into the long dress. The ankle length sackcloth dress, coupled with her flaxen waves surprisingly gave her a slight artistic hipster vibe. She rubbed her lips together to even out her lipstick before opening the door.
  • "Bam!" Man Yu's nose almost knocked into the tall and straight body in front of the door. She drew back two steps in surprise, "What are you doing?"
  • Kou Yan's serious handsome face coldly scanned her up and down. After he was done, he stood there indifferently without saying a word.
  • "May I go now?" Seeing this, Man Yu awkwardly lifted her suitcase. She didn't bring much stuff when she first came to this house, and didn't want to take away anything belonging to the Kou Family when she left.
  • Kou Yan asked indifferently, "Where are you going?"
  • "Hm?" Man Yu smiled, "Me? Are you worried about me?"
  • Kou Yan's face darkened. The corners of his mouth turned down, "Forget I said anything."
  • "Then I'm really going now, okay?" Man Yu couldn't restrain her extreme excitement. She cupped one fist in one hand like a martial artist, "Ex-husband! May we meet again! Adieu!"
  • She put on a pair of sunglasses and started to leave when she heard a freezing order from behind, "Halt!"
  • Man Yu's body stiffened. What? Is he backing out?
  • She turned her head and carefully asked, "Do you still need something?"
  • Kou Yan seemed surprised by her fearful and apprehensive attitude. He cleared his throat and said sharply, "If you're leaving, stay far, far away. Don't let me see you again!"
  • "Will do!" Man Yu agreed without any hesitation, and gracefully walked off in her high-heels.
  • Finally--I'm finally free!
  • Man Yu had only just exited the front doors of the Kou Residence, but she already felt that the air had never tasted so fresh and clean. It was like she was on cloud nine. However, she only managed to enjoy a few seconds of happiness before she saw a car stop in front of her.
  • The car window rolled down, revealing a face that closely resembled Man Yu's. The only difference was that Man Rong's face was more arrogant.
  • "Why are you still here?" Man Yu frowned and coolly said, "Are you waiting for me to invite you out to eat?"
  • "Even if you want to have a farewell dinner, Kou Yan still won't bother with you!" Irritated by Man Yu's words, Man Rong said in a voice dripping with sarcasm, "If not for me, did you really think you could have stepped into the Kou Family's doors?"
  • Hehe?
  • Man Yu raised an eyebrow. It would have been better if Man Rong hadn't mentioned it. As soon as she brought it up, the little embers in Man Yu heart were instantly set alight.
  • "Oh my, if you hadn't brought it up, I really would have forgotten!" Half-smiling, Man Yu leaned against her suitcase, and looked down at her, "If you hadn't drugged Kou Yan, how could I have had that night of passion? Tsk, tsk. It's a real shame, Kou Yan really is big and good in bed."
  • "You! You're shameless!" Man Rong's face turned green from anger. She fumed, "What are you so proud about?! Kou Yan doesn't want you anymore. Do you still think that you're a daughter-in-law of the Kou Family?"
  • "Being an ex-daughter-in-law is still better than someone who never has!" Man Yu said sinisterly, her smile a bit creepy, "It's still better than you who can only watch enviously. What can coveting achieve? Drooling practice?!"
  • Man Rong seethed in anger She pointed at Man Yu's nose and shrieked furiously, "You stole what was mine. What belongs to me can never be snatched away from me by anyone else!"
  • Stole what was hers?
  • Man Yu let out a genuine, mocking laugh and sneered, "And who did you snatch from? You had better be watch what you say." She reached out and knocked on Man Rong's car door with a finger. Her voice slowly grew gloomy and cold, "Are you aware that Nie Suhuan is back?"
  • The sentence was short and simple, yet it made Man Rong's face immediately change color.
  • Nie Suhuan... Nie Shuhuan!
  • If Nie Suhuan hadn't left the country, then Kou Yan would have never gotten drunk, and she would have never had the opportunity to drug him. However, things didn't go as planned, and Man Yu, who never wanted to get involved, accidentally ended up sleeping with Kou Yan.
  • Man Yu contently surveyed the girl whose face had turned pale with fright. Her brilliant red lips formed a devilish and cold smile, "Nie Suhuan is back. Do you still think that you have a chance?"
  • Just as she finished speaking, there was a sound of confusion nearby, followed by Kou Mingzhu's frantic screaming, "Mom--Mom! What's wrong? Someone help! Mom has fainted!"
  • Man Yu slowly turned her head around, and saw Kou Mingzhu frantically calling for help as she held up her mother who had almost fallen to the ground. Man Rong witnessed this scene, and hastily got out of the car to help.
  • So it's true that... What goes around comes around?
  • This mother and daughter pair who joined hands to force Nie Suhuan out of the country were actually eavesdropping on them just now.
  • Man Yu knew that Mrs Kou had a high blood pressure. Naturally, she wasn't able to handle this shocking news. The Kou Residence was really in a big mess right now.
  • But, how is this any of her concern?
  • Man Yu's beautiful face broke out into a splendid smile. She turned and hailed a taxi, "Master, Aimei Culture and Film Company please!"
  • During the three years she lived with the Kou Family, everyone thought that she was a parasite, freeloading off Kou Yan, but other than Man Yu, only her bosom friend, Rong Siqing, knew that she had been working as a screenwriter for Aimei for three years already.
  • Not only that, she wasn't just a normal screenwriter. She was a gold-level screenwriter, and a popular novelist.
  • Who said that I'm a termite? I will prove by action that even I've left Kou Yan, I am still that prosperous Man Yu!
  • Man Yu got off the car and slinked into the company building of Aimei Culture as if there was no one else present. She didn't even need to notify the front desk, directly entering the elevator that led straight to the editorial department.
  • "Welcome, oh-great screenwriter!" Rong Siqing could tell that it was Man Yu without even raising her head.
  • Because Rong Siqing witnessed the entire course of Man Yu's marriage up to her divorce.
  • "Today's Man Yu is now single! Man Yu solemnly spread her arms out wide and said to Rong Siqing, "Please call me the Great Screenwriter and Lady Bachelorette, who is looking for a young, overbearing, cool and handsome boyfriend, Yu Man!"
  • Yu Man was Man Yu's pseudonym at the editorial department. These past few years, she churned out hit novels one after another under this pseudonym. She was truly worthy of the title the Goddess of Novels.
  • "As you wish!" Rong Siqing pulled her down onto a chair and quickly started giving her the royal treatment, massaging her thigh, giving her a back massage, serving her tea, "I also have some good news for you, want to hear it?"
  • Man Yu sipped some tea, narrowed her eyes, and wagged a finger, "One who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions!"
  • Rong Siqing shook her short, thick unkempt hair and smiled craftily, "That's right, why are you so smart? HC Platform thinks that your outdoor survival live reality program proposal has promise, they've already agreed to start filming!"
  • "Really?!" Man Yu raised her beautiful eyebrows. Naturally, she was over the mood, but besides joy, for some reason she detected a hint of conspiracy in Rong Siqing's smiling face.
  • "Tsk... Is there still something you're hiding from me?" Man Yu said icily, staring fixedly at Rong Siqing's pretty small face, "Hurry up and confess!"
  • Rong Siqing blinked, refilled Man Yu's teacup and reverently presented it to her. She said with a cajoling smile, "They have a condition, that is... Kou Yan must participate!"
