Chapter 693 Dumped Twice - I Became the Rich Second-Generation Villain

"Honored guests, our Young Master invites you." The female disciple of the Yin Moon Sect approached at the gate with a smile, then led the way. After a short while, they arrived at a side chamber. Inside, Su Xuan and Hua Jieyu were waiting. Su Xuan noticed the person beside Xu Qingtong, recognizing Wang Haoran, and his expression turned sullen, though he didn't immediately erupt. Xu Ao, as the Pavilion Master of Flying Cloud Pavilion, couldn't leave to escort Xu Qingtong. It was likely that Wang Haoran had volunteered to escort Xu Qingtong. Regardless, Su Xuan was still convinced that Xu Qingtong cared about him. "Qingtong, I know you're worried about my safety, but there's something I need to warn you about," Su Xuan said, casting a cold glance at Wang Haoran and seriously advising Xu Qingtong, "You'd better stay away from this person, otherwise I won't be happy." "My affairs are none of your business. And whether you're happy or not has nothing to do with me," Xu Qingtong retorted angrily. "What do you mean by that?" Su Xuan frowned. Xu Qingtong took a deep breath, "I mean, from now on, we'll go our separate ways and have nothing to do with each other." Su Xuan was displeased, but the sense of crisis Wang Haoran brought compelled him to compromise with Xu Qingtong, so he said, "I was wrong before, I shouldn't have lost my temper with you. I apologize, please don't be petty." Xu Qingtong remained serious and silent. Su Xuan was taken aback, realizing that Xu Qingtong wasn't being petty; she genuinely meant it. "Why? Is it because of the person next to you?!" Su Xuan's jealousy flared, causing him to shout. Xu Qingtong was startled and involuntarily stepped back. Wang Haoran reached out to steady her back, resting his hand on her shoulder, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, with me here, no one can harm you." Xu Qingtong's beautiful eyes glanced at him, revealing a slight smile as she nodded slightly. Seeing this, Su Xuan's face twisted with rage.

I really misjudged you. You've known him for how long, and you're already with him!" Su Xuan cried out in resentment. "Say whatever you want, but I do like him," Xu Qingtong said indifferently, unconcerned about what Su Xuan thought of her, as there would be no future interactions with him. "You—" Su Xuan wanted to curse. "If you want to die, just keep talking," Wang Haoran cut in. Su Xuan was startled, and the words on the tip of his tongue were forcibly swallowed back. "I spared you this time, but I can always change my mind, so you'd better watch your words," Wang Haoran said calmly. Su Xuan was momentarily frightened, but quickly realized his current position, regaining some confidence, "This is the Yin Moon Sect, you can't just do whatever you want here." Saying that, he looked to the side, "Jieyu, don't you agree?" Hua Jieyu did not respond, instead staring blankly in Wang Haoran and Xu Qingtong's direction. Su Xuan did not think Hua Jieyu was staring at Xu Qingtong in awe. "Jieyu?" Su Xuan called, annoyed. "Huh? What is it?" Hua Jieyu snapped out of her daze, asking Su Xuan in bewilderment. Seeing Hua Jieyu's reaction, Su Xuan was even more upset. Even if Wang Haoran is good-looking, do you have to stare at him like that?! I'm still right here, aren't you going to notice your man? [Ding, Host causes Su Xuan's mindset to be damaged, gaining 6,000 villain points, Su Xuan's protagonist halo -300, Host's villain halo +300!] Su Xuan cast a cold glance at Wang Haoran and Xu Qingtong, then said to Hua Jieyu, "I don't want to see these two. Please ask them to leave." Hua Jieyu didn't reply, instead swaying her hips as she approached Wang Haoran, stopping a meter before him and smiling as she asked, "This young sir is quite handsome. May I know your name?" Seeing Hua Jieyu flirting, Xu Qingtong warily watched her, instinctively tightening her hold on Wang Haoran's arm as if claiming her territory. "My surname is Wang," Wang Haoran, curious about how the enchantress might seduce someone, maintained a proper demeanor. "Oh, you're the new young master of the Wang family. I've heard so much about you," Hua Jieyu said, feigning surprise and covering her mouth, admiration in her eyes, as she playfully added, "The Wang family sent out messages to the major forces of the Eastern Region, asking them to send you beauties from their ranks. I had thought of going to the Wang family myself, to see if I could catch your eye, but sect duties kept me from leaving, so I had to delay." "Unexpectedly, fate has brought us together here today." "It's truly an honor for me to behold your handsome presence." "This was only because I was searching for a lost lover. The Wang family later clarified the situation. You should be aware of this by now, right? But thank you for thinking highly of me, though I'm afraid I cannot accept your favor," Wang Haoran said, waving his hand. "Everyone in the Eastern Region knows what your Yin Moon Sect is like! He's not interested in you," Xu Qingtong mocked Hua Jieyu triumphantly. Ignoring Xu Qingtong, Hua Jieyu coyly said to Wang Haoran, "You've misunderstood me. I'm only nineteen and have never even held a man's hand." "Hua Jieyu, that's the best joke I've ever heard—don't pretend to be innocent," Xu Qingtong scoffed. Wang Haoran chuckled silently. At first glance, Hua Jieyu seemed frivolous, but he sensed she was still a genuine maiden. "Every word I've said to you is true. If there's any falsehood, may I be struck by lightning," Hua Jieyu vowed. "Hua Jieyu, enough of this. Are you completely disregarding me?" Su Xuan finally exploded in anger from behind. "You are injured; it's better to stay quiet, or your condition might worsen," Hua Jieyu replied, seemingly gently, yet without any expression. "I don't want to see them here. Please have them leave," Su Xuan commanded Hua Jieyu. "Be quiet," Hua Jieyu reminded once more. "I told you to have them leave!" Su Xuan demanded loudly, sternly. "Why bother?" Hua Jieyu sighed coldly, turning to Su Xuan, "We're done." "What do you mean?" Su Xuan was taken aback. "It means you've been dumped. Twice in one day," Hua Jieyu said indifferently. She never had any genuine feelings for Su Xuan, merely admiration. Now that Su Xuan was causing a scene, ruining her plan, and commanding her, she couldn't tolerate it. "Hua Jieyu, you enchantress!" Su Xuan shouted. "Yes, I am an enchantress, and enchantresses are capricious and heartless," Hua Jieyu replied nonchalantly. (End of chapter)
