Chương 6: Why Is Your Temper Flaring Today?
Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Girl! There are no more peanuts!"
Shen Chen was particularly listless as she had not been working for the past few days, but as usual, Shen Zhongming was tossing trivial things at her.
Not getting a response, Shen Zhongming called out again, and finally, Shen Chen stumbled out of the door.
With Shen Zhongming at home, she would stumble out at least eight times in the span of three days.
If the door had not been particularly sturdy, it would have been ripped apart long ago.
Shen Chen wore an expression that made her look like she wanted to tear someone apart. Her face was extremely fierce, and her entire body exuded a chilly aura as well.
As soon as she came out, Shen Zhongming glanced at her. "You're a girl, can't you be a bit gentler?"
Shen Chen yelled, "It's none of your effing business!"
Shen Zhongming took a swig of Erguotou and said, "What's the matter? Why is your temper flaring today?"
While he spoke, he handed her the Erguotou in his hand. "Take a swig. This wine is definitely not the cheap kind. Your dad assures you that much!
Shen Chen's eyes reddened. "Get lost!"
She did not even look at Shen Zhongming as she walked out in big strides.
In all the 21 years of her life, that was the first time she had ever been so angry.
With both hands in her bag, Shen Chen walked along the road with which she could not be more familiar.
It rained the night before, and the ground was still wet. A car sped by, and she could not avoid it in time, so she ended up being splashed by the water from the road puddles.
While there was not much water, Shen Chen was still soaked.
Several messy strands of long hair on her forehead were stained with dirty water, which dripped onto her cheeks. Her whole person looked terrible.
Worst still was her light-colored clothes that were soaked, baring her beautiful figure even in the dark.
Dirty water trickled down her cheeks, drop by drop.
It was humiliating...
*Screech!*
All of a sudden, the screeching sound of a car breaking rang out, and a sports car stopped a meter away from her.
The car window then slowly rolled down, revealing a glamorous face.
There was an antagonistic glint in the person's eyes.
"Yo, Miss Shen. What a coincidence!"
The person's way of greeting was very different, but maybe she did not even realize it. Was she making fun of Shen Chen or being sarcastic?
Shen Chen looked at her as she tried to wipe off the dirty water on her face. "A coincidence indeed." She smirked.
Her voice was flat, preventing anyone from guessing her current mood.
Hearing that, the person in the car took off her sunglasses and chuckled. "I'm sorry... about that! If I had known it was you, I wouldn't have taken this route!"
Shen Chen raised her eyebrows, and the smile on her face grew even more intense.
Noticing that she was not speaking, the other party became smugger. "I was going to give you a ride, but seeing how... dirty you are..."
There were blades between each of her words, just waiting to cut Shen Chen apart.
At times, even hating someone could be so dramatic.
The driver was Xia An'an, who used to be in the same class as Shen Chen.
She despised Shen Chen because one of the boys she had a crush on liked Shen Chen.
Ever since, they had gone their separate ways and ignored each other.
They were very clear about hating one another!
"Dirty?" Shen Chen suddenly laughed. "Does an 'impeccable' person like you get angry when you see people without any physical or mental health problems?"
Against a small-time b*tch like that, she did not need a silver tongue!
