Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 81 - 78: Zhou Rou Gets Beaten Up
Chapter 81: Chapter 78: Zhou Rou Gets Beaten Up
Zhou Rou’s voice came first before she arrived: "Li Si, what made you decide to host a BBQ gathering? I was thinking we should all meet up one of these days!"
As she approached, the luxurious sights along the way dazzled her eyes. How she wished she was the one living here, the one having friends over! Why was her life so hard, and her luck so poor? Her dad had passed away too, but look at Li Si, living it up with good food and drink!
Right, she sneered silently, what father? At most, just a foster father! "Really? Zhou Rou, it’s just as well you’re here. I wanted to ask you something! That day you asked me for help, did that man really say he was going to take you away?" Li Si got straight to the point, not wanting to exchange pleasantries.
Zhou Rou felt a bit guilty as soon as she saw Jiang Fan was present.
Now hearing Li Si ask this, she subconsciously glanced at Jiang Fan. Seeing her still calmly watching, she felt reassured.
"Could I lie? Li Si, I really thank you. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know what would have happened to me later."
As she spoke, her eyes wandered to the two guys present, and not seeing Mr. Leng’s figure, she was a bit disappointed! She came today thick-skinned, hoping to get closer to Mr. Leng and find an opportunity to make something happen.
Unexpectedly, she faced Li Si’s questioning as soon as she appeared.
"Is that so? Then are you daring enough to have that man confront you? Zhou Rou, I believe I’ve been fair to you! Why target me?" Li Si felt heartbroken. If not for the friendship from those three years in high school, why would she have arranged a job for her at the private kitchen!
"Li Si, what are you talking about? I don’t understand! When did I target you? Hasn’t our many years of friendship been real? Apart from Shasha, I have always considered you my best friend! Saying this really hurts me! Is it just because of a few words from others that we’re no longer good? Or do you no longer want to be friends because my family has debts and you’re afraid of getting involved?"
Tears welled up in her eyes, as if the moment Li Si said something harsher, she would burst into tears. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
"Zhou Rou, if you want people not to know, you mustn’t do it yourself! No need to act in front of me; I already know the truth, and am asking you just to understand your reasons! Stop always treating others like fools! Do you think that by playing weak and performing those tearful acts, anything you do will be forgiven?" Li Si was speechless. She truly didn’t want to stoop that low.
Bai Shasha glared at her, her high school back-row seatmate, "Zhou Rou, you’re disgusting! I definitely don’t want to be your good friend! Is being your good friend just about being used and deceived by you? When we called earlier, why didn’t you tell me what you’ve done? Still pretending to explain that there was a misunderstanding between you and Li Si, asking me to mediate! How did you become like this?"
"What? Are you denying everything we’re saying?" Li Si really didn’t want to continue this back-and-forth, when everyone clearly came for a happy BBQ but ended up ruining the mood.
Zhou Rou wiped her eyes, her expression twisted as she shouted loudly, "How am I disgusting? Isn’t it just a minor issue? To talk about disgust, Li Si, you’re far more disgusting than I am! Do you all think she invited you here today for what reason? This is just a show-off, a blatant show-off of how she clung to a rich man."
"What did I show off about? Even if I had to beg, I wouldn’t cling to a rich man!" Li Si glared at her. Finally showing her true colors, all her past appearances were just a façade!
Zhou Rou sneered, "Li Si, what are you pretending to be high and mighty for? I came today to give you face, yet you don’t appreciate it. Acting like I don’t know, right? Your aunt told my mom that you’re not even their own child, just an orphan. They even asked you for the house and money your father left, right? Hah, I genuinely look down on you!"
"What did you say?" Bai Shasha was shocked, and the other two boys were also stunned by this sudden news.
"Even if these things are true, what does it have to do with you? You should worry about how to pay your own family’s debt first!" Li Si sneered. Since she no longer considered Zhou Rou a friend, why care about her opinion! She’s the one looking down on herself, who does she think she is!
Furious, Zhou Rou pointed angrily at Li Si, "You..." She didn’t expect such words to come from Li Si’s mouth. Sneeringly, she looked at everyone, "Didn’t hear clearly? Li Si is an unwanted child, one who’s born with a mother but without mother’s care. Did you hear that? Before making friends, take a good look first!"
"You shameless bitch!" The anger within Li Si exploded to the extreme at her remark about a child born with a mother but without mother’s care.
With one big step forward, she slapped Zhou Rou with all her strength, knocking her to the ground, and her white dress was lifted by the wind, revealing the white lace panties inside, faintly showing some black hair.
Dong Lei and Cao Yufan stared blankly for a moment, then quickly turned away, cursing that mischievous wind, as this was certainly not something they wanted to see!
Zhou Rou, shocked, spat out a tooth with blood, angrily getting up from the ground, "Ah! Li Si, I’ll fight you to the end!" She charged at Li Si in shame and rage.
Li Si felt she hadn’t fought enough, grabbed her hands and forcefully pulled them outward while tripping her to the ground with her foot.
Jiang Fan and Bai Shasha also joined in the skirmish, and with three girls ganging up on one, the outcome was evident. In the end, Zhou Rou’s hair was disheveled, face swollen with handprints and nail scratches, and her originally white dress covered with footprints, looking utterly bedraggled.
Li Si glared at her sternly, "Zhou Rou, remember, don’t ever claim to be my friend again. I don’t have friends like you! And don’t let me see you again, otherwise I’ll beat you every time!"
"Get lost quickly! You shameless whore, no wonder you’re so scheming at such a young age, truly a heartless and unfaithful bitch!" Bai Shasha rubbed her cheek scratched by Zhou Rou, cursing loudly.
Zhou Rou spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, glared venomously at everyone, and turned to leave. She secretly vowed in her heart, Just wait, I don’t believe I’ll never rise again. When I do, I’ll make you all pay!
The pleasant BBQ gathering ultimately turned into Zhou Rou’s indictment assembly. The two boys raised their thumbs to the three girls who fought fiercely earlier, and silently established a life rule not to mess with women!
And Li Si also briefly talked with a few people about Grandma Li’s birthday banquet. Moreover, after speaking, she felt a lot lighter, as if the oppressive mood from before had been considerably relieved. (To be continued.
