Reborn In The Apocalypse: It Had Always Been You

Qi Cheng tried his best to control the expression on his face. He gave Su Shanshan his best smile. “You’re not in a good mood today. Didn’t you want me to take you to a movie last time? I can take you when I have some time tomorrow.”

Su Shanshan laughed cynically. How ironic. When she pursued him, he ignored her. Once she turned cold, he made advances at her. The more she looked at him, the more disgusted she felt.

“I came here today to tell you…” She paused for a moment, looked at everyone in the room, and said,” I don’t like Qi Cheng anymore. I’ll withdraw all of the Qi family’s assets. In future, if any of you dares to link Qi Cheng and me together again, I’ll make you guys suffer.”

For a moment the room went quiet. The young masters looked at each other and, one after another, they started talking.

“Miss Su is really resolute. I’m impressed.”

“That’s right. I’ve long felt that Qi Cheng doesn’t deserve you. You should have abandoned him a long time ago.”

“Miss Su, please take care of our Wang family in future.”

As soon as someone said this, the rest of the people scrambled to ask Su Shanshan to remember their families. They thought that it would be great if they were lucky enough to be fancied by Miss Su. Money that the Gu family casually considered disposable would mean a lot to them.

If they knew that they were fighting over a woman with the head of the Gu family, they would probably be so scared that they would never dare to see Su Shanshan again.

Su Shanshan sneered at their disgusting behavior. “True enough, one must not be too kind. If you are nice, you’ll be bullied. Once you act tough, everyone will flatter you.”

“I’ll be going now. I think we’ll have a chance to work together in the future,” Su Shanshan said casually with a smirk. “The world will end tomorrow anyway, so they probably won’t be able to wait forever,” she thought.

Su Shanshan went out of the room. The person who stayed behind looked at Qi Cheng, who had an ugly expression on his face, and a strange smile appeared on his face. He mocked, “Young Master Qi, you’ve lost favor.”

“That’s true. If I were the eldest daughter of the Su family, I would fall out with you too.”

Qi Cheng could not take it anymore. He threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground and said, “Shut up.” 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

The people present would not flatter him anymore. Young Master Liu, who was originally from a first-rate family in City B, walked up and sneered. “You’re just a coward who relies on women to survive. Without Su Shanshan, who do you think you are? Do you believe that my Liu family can crush your Qi family with one hand?”

Qi Cheng clenched his fists, but he did not have the courage to resist.

Young Master Liu looked at him with disdain and said, “I really don’t know why Miss Su likes you. You look so noble on the surface, but you’re actually trying to use a woman to climb up the ranks.”

“You—” Qi Cheng stood up abruptly and glared angrily at Young Master Liu.

When Bai Ran saw that the two parties were about to start fighting, she quickly pulled Qi Cheng back and whispered into his ear, “Alright, I’ll blame it on going after Su Shanshan.”

Qi Cheng was a little flustered facing the person opposite him. Seeing that Bai Ran had given him a way out, he nodded and left. As he was leaving, he turned back to look at the people in the room. He resolved to get Su Shanshan back and make them pay.

Bai Ran wanted to run after him, but she was stopped by the crowd. Young Master Liu smiled meanly and said, “Didn’t you say you were going to treat us tonight? Since that’s the case, let’s settle the bill before leaving.”

Bai Ran’s expression froze. She was from an ordinary family, and it was only because of her connection with Su Shanshan that she had the chance to get into high society. How could she have the money to pay the bill?

“Su Shanshan is supposed to pay the bill——” she explained.

“But she left. Didn’t you always say that you are her best friend? Surely it’s not too much to help your friend settle the bill.”

Bai Ran endured her heartache and took out her only bank card with money. She had been saving up for a long time to buy a branded handbag.

When Qi Cheng ran out and saw Su Shanshan, he quickly chased after her. He had only taken two steps when someone behind him put a sack over his head and dragged him into an alley. After delivering a series of punches and kicks, Gu Zhao kicked Qi Cheng, who was lying on the ground like a dead pig. He sneered. “A piece of trash like you actually dared to snatch President Gu’s woman.”

Although he did not like Su Shanshan, he would not allow anyone to snatch the woman that President Gu wanted.

Su Shanshan took a taxi back to the villa. The moon in the sky had already turned red. The strange redness exuded an ominous aura. The stars around the moon were even brighter than before. It did not make people feel that the stars were beautiful.. Instead, it gave people the feeling that they were being watched.
