Chapter 121: The Ren Family’s Third Son
“I just said he deceived me, but actually I didn’t say everything.”
“Not only did he deceive me, he also used the matter to threaten me to date him!”
By the last sentence, Hu Yue felt extremely disgusted, frowning tightly with a face full of disgust.
Xuan Xia: “Ha?”
If Hu Yue hadn’t made up her mind to say it, even if given another month, Xuan Xia wouldn’t have guessed in that direction.
Looking at the fruit platter in front of her again, Xuan Xia decided to have a bite of melon.
Hu Yue also became frank.
The matter still had to start from when Hu Yue discovered someone had cursed her.
After Hu Yue found that Weather Doll, she quickly remembered that she seemed to have a friend who knew someone in this field.
So she got introduced through her friend and met that scammer.
After meeting, that scammer even said he was her fan and liked her very much. But Hu Yue didn’t think much of it at the time.
After she told him her situation, her original intention was to break the curse. As for an eye for an eye, it was that scammer who told her. He told her he could help her get revenge.
She was angry at the time and didn’t object.
But what Hu Yue didn’t expect was that the culprit behind it quickly surfaced—it was actually Yu Mengxin from the same group.
Everyone had been together in the group for so long; even if not like sisters, there were always some emotions. Yet Yu Mengxin disregarded any group camaraderie and dared to use such vicious methods. Hu Yue felt backstabbed and naturally firmly refused to do group activities with her anymore.
But after the company decided to fire Yu Mengxin, Hu Yue’s anger was mostly vented.
At this time, that scammer contacted her, saying the curse-breaking was done, and next he would deal with the one who cast the curse.
Hu Yue didn’t care if the first half of what he said was true or false, but thinking that the curser was Yu Mengxin, she said forget it, she didn’t want him to do anything to Yu Mengxin, and the matter ended there.
But he didn’t listen to her at all. Yu Mengxin had an accident that night, and she was still lying in the hospital to this day.
The moment Hu Yue heard the news, she went to find him. It was also at this time that he revealed his true colors.
Not only did he push all the responsibility for Yu Mengxin’s hospitalization onto her, he also threatened her with it to make her agree to date him.
Hu Yue was disgusted at the time and refused without thinking.
But he further threatened her that if she didn’t comply, her end would be worse than Yu Mengxin’s.
Xuan Xia pinched a small piece of melon in her hand and couldn’t eat it anymore: So shameless!
“Yueyue almost had an accident that day.” An Qi said from the side.
Hu Yue took over, “It was fine at first, but starting from the next day, I think he really wanted to make me suffer worse than Yu Mengxin.”
“I actually also wore an amulet, but it seems not as effective as the one you gave An Qi.” She added.
Although Hu Yue used words like “seems” and “as,” the real situation was that her own amulet was completely useless!
Whereas the amulet from Xuan Xia was particularly effective!
Plus An Qi had witnessed Xuan Xia’s abilities, so An Qi brought Hu Yue over.
The real purpose of their visit today was twofold: first, indeed to ask Xuan Xia for two amulets; second, to consult Xuan Xia on whether there was a way to stop that person.
Hu Yue said: “I asked the friend who introduced him, but she said she had no way either, and even… advised me to accept him.”
Recalling the tone her friend used when saying that to her, Hu Yue felt uncontrollably sad.
An Qi timely pulled her hand, silently comforting her.
Xuan Xia couldn’t comment on her friend.
As for that shameless scammer, Xuan Xia’s first thought was: What trash, just kill him.
However, that probably wouldn’t work.
Xuan Xia thought for a moment, then said: “Do you know his name? Otherwise, I can ask someone to inquire first?”
But someone so despicable and shameless probably wasn’t from the Mystic Sect, right?
“His name is Ren Tongli.”
Xuan Xia: “…”
Why another Ren surname!
It couldn’t be such a coincidence, right?
Xuan Xia told them to wait a moment, got her mobile phone, asked Hu Yue for the exact characters while sending the name to Qu Xingxuan, asking if he knew the person.
The message was sent, and a reply came in just a few seconds.
‘Qu Xingxuan: Him, yeah, I know him.’
‘Qu Xingxuan: Ren Family’s third son. How do you know him too?’
Xuan Xia: “…”
Speaking of which, did she need to take back something she said earlier?
Xuan Xia looked at Qu Xingxuan’s second reply again and again, then edited a message.
Xuan Xia: “What’s this guy’s character like?”
Qu Xingxuan replied quickly as always.
This time, just three words came back.
‘Qu Xingxuan: Dog thing!’
No need for more words; everything was in the exclamation mark after the three words.
‘Qu Xingxuan: Listen to me, don’t pay him any attention.’
Xuan Xia was pondering how to continue asking Qu Xingxuan about this Ren Tongli when another message came from Qu Xingxuan.
This time, it even mentioned Hu Yue.
‘Qu Xingxuan: The one at your house today isn’t Ren the third’s girlfriend.’
‘Qu Xingxuan: Listen to me again, don’t get too close to her either.’
Hmm?
Xuan Xia looked at what Qu Xingxuan sent; even he knew Hu Yue was related to Ren Tongli.
So was what Hu Yue said earlier true or false?
Xuan Xia calmly sent a message to ask Qu Xingxuan again.
“Are you pretty familiar with this Ren Tongli? You even know his girlfriend?”
‘Qu Xingxuan: You don’t know he loves to show off. He was just bragging in the group chat recently and even posted a photo. I recognized her at a glance today.’
Xuan Xia thought to herself, no wonder he acted so reserved after An Qi and Hu Yue arrived.
Turns out it wasn’t reserved, but not wanting to deal with them?
Xuan Xia suddenly felt it was tricky.
In terms of closeness, she naturally trusted Qu Xingxuan more, but looking at Hu Yue’s expression, it didn’t seem like acting skills.
So what to do?
Xuan Xia hesitated and pondered for a while, but soon she gave up figuring out the truth herself.
This kind of thing really shouldn’t be her bothering alone.
“Yueyue.” Xuan Xia decided to use An Qi’s way of addressing Hu Yue, “You and Ren Tongli really aren’t in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?”
Hu Yue was stunned by her question.
An Qi also looked at Xuan Xia with an expression of why she would ask that.
Facing their line of sight, Xuan Xia showed a faint smile on her face: “My friend says you’re dating Ren Tongli?”
“Impossible! That’s nonsense!”
Hu Yue didn’t speak; An Qi shouted first.
Xuan Xia maintained that smile, briefly glanced at An Qi, then focused on Hu Yue.
A few seconds later, Hu Yue silently took out her mobile phone, went into contacts to search, found a number without a name, and dialed it.
After dialing, she pressed the speaker button, and just as she placed the phone on the tea table in front, the call connected.
A male voice came through, tone frivolous and greasy: “Baby, you finally willing to call me?”
Hu Yue frowned hard, “You really make me feel sick!”
The other end: “…”
Xuan Xia: “…”
After two seconds, laughter started from the other end, but as it continued, the laughter gradually became twisted.
