NOVEL NEXT Chapter 35
You Definitely Think Too Highly Of Yourself!
Completely shocked by the sight that was happening in front of her eyes, Li Shengxia immediately stepped forward to grab Mo Nianchen’s arm. “We’re at a charity auction event. You can’t do this!” she said anxiously.
Was he not here to pretend to be a good man? How could he lose control within seconds?
His arm froze, his fist hanging up there in the air.
He remained in that position for several seconds.
The manager’s face went pale with fear. “Crown… Crown Prince… Did I say something wrong? Please forgive me…”
Before he could finish speaking, Mo Nianchen pushed him away, looking disgusted as if he had touched something filthy. Then, he removed the expensive suit he was wearing and threw it into the trash can nearby!
His cold voice filled the room as he did that, “I don’t want to see this man within my sight starting from this second.”
The manager was terrified beyond his wits. “Crown Prince, this job means a great deal to me. Crown Prince…” he pleaded sincerely.
“Don’t make me repeat myself.” His eyes revealed no emotion yet they reeked of intimidation.
Instead of flying into a rage, the man remained as calm as water, but the people around him felt they were drowning in violent waves of fury.
The manager was shocked into silence!
As well as everyone else at the scene!
It was rumored that the crown prince was hot-tempered but this was unexpected. A slip of the tongue was enough to have one’s career destroyed. The crowd dispersed immediately for fear of accidentally offending the man.
The manager who called the crown prince benevolent earlier got a really nasty shock. He still had no idea what it was he said that offended the crown prince. However, now he learned to not flatter just anyone without proper consideration!
Soon, he was escorted out of the room and disappeared within sight in a matter of seconds.
Li Shengxia still had not recovered from the shock. Mo Nianchen was already a tyrant back in their school days. Not only was he an academic overachiever but he had also never lost a fight. No one in school dared to provoke him.
However, due to his dashing looks, not only did the girls not hate him, they also admired him like an idol. The boys on the other hand feared him and at the same time respected him because of his family background as well as his charm.
As it turned out, nothing had changed.
The chaos settled down within seconds. Silence returned to the room as if nothing happened.
Li Shengxia looked at the ground with her hands folded in front of her. She began to feel uncomfortable as she thought of what others would think of her.
She was suddenly washed over by a sense of shame.
“What are you doing there?” Mo Nianchen enquired. She dodged away before the tip of his fingers could touch her.
His eyes were filled with indifference as he spoke flatly, “What’s the matter? Are you embarrassed to be seen with me?”
She declined to answer but her behavior clearly expressed her thoughts. ‘Yes, you’re right, that’s exactly how I feel! Being with you makes me ashamed. I wish I could flee from this place right now!’
Instead, she clenched her fists and posed the question, “How many women have you brought to this place before?”
“Why? Are you bothered about that?” He cheered up a little. Indeed, he had brought other women to charity auctions before to have other people rate and critic them. That was pretty much the sole reason he brought them along to these events…
However, that happened during those five years when he lost her. More than once, he had tried using these methods to forget her…
The man agreed that he had acted childishly in the past. He truly did not expect to have her back in his life one day, and that the things he did back then would make her feel uncomfortable.
He was guilty of his doings and felt apologetic to her.
Despite that…
She simply said coldly, “No, I don’t care, but I do feel ashamed being seen walking next to you! I’m sure everyone thinks I’m your prostitute.”
She did not try to hide the disgust in her gaze!
The pity on his face was replaced by a ruthless expression. “Since that’s how you feel then I’ll show you what a real prostitute would do!” He grabbed her by the wrist immediately and dragged her toward the direction of the washroom.
The woman struggled to free from his grip but that only attracted more curious attention. No one dared to step forward from the crowd, even though they were silently judging the situation with their own wild imagination. She had no choice but to go with the man.
He slammed the washroom door shut behind him without revealing any emotion on his face. The man pushed her back against the wall next to the sink. She could sense the exasperation in his breath.
Her teeth were chattering. A chill ran down her spine and made her shiver uncontrollably.
She did not try to stop his assault of kisses. In spite of that, he felt like a massive loser when he witnessed the devastated expression on her face!
“How much do you think your face is worth? How much do you think your body is worth? Do you think many people would be interested in how you look? You definitely think too highly of yourself! If you feel like a prostitute, then I’ll show you the whole experience!”
His voice, not different to the shrills of ghosts and demons from hell, rang incessantly next to her ears…
“You don’t know how to cater to your owner or whisper sweet nothings, not to mention that sullen look you always put on as if you’ve been insulted. Who do you think would be willing to buy you?!”
The cold tiles on the wall numbed her senses.
Finally, she reached her limit. “Mo Nianchen, stop it! You can insult me but please don’t insult my personality and dignity!”
Was it not enough for him to humiliate her as if she was worth nothing? Would he only be satisfied after crushing the last bit of her dignity?
A sarcastic smile flashed across his face. “I’ll insult you just as you wish!”
His words completely destroyed her.
This was how he was, going about his day destroying other people as long as it pleased him. She lost the power to protect even the last bit of her dignity in front of this man!
