Chapter 2606: Do Not Hurt Yourself
Yun Shishi said, “There’s no need to stay in love with this kind of man. He’s so philanderous; even if the both of you get married and stay together, you’ll suffer much in the days to come. You should be glad that you found out his true colors early on and broke off with him, and you should be even more glad that you’re not delayed by him for too long!”
Her bestie pursed her lips and nodded her head.
“Xiao Xue, you’re so exceptional, you deserve a better man.”
“It’s not that I can’t let go of the relationship, nor is there any lingering love for him. It’s just that I’ve taken it seriously. Being played hard, I can’t swallow that!”
She clenched her fists as she spoke. She badly wanted to take revenge on the man so that he would know that women’s feelings were not for fooling around.
Xiao Xue was a headstrong woman, who knew what she wanted. As such, she was not the type to stay in a dragging love affair, but her character had always been defiant; therefore, the idea of revenge was born.
The actress seemed to see through her thoughts and pressed on. “Don’t tell me that you’re thinking of taking revenge against him?”
Surprised, the other woman jerked her head up and looked at her in amazement.
“You… How did you know that’s what’s on my mind?”
“You’ve always been defiant and headstrong. You’re definitely the type to seek revenge, especially after being toyed with.”
“That’s right!”
Her friend did not deny it.
She turned her head sideways and asked curiously, “Tell me: How do you intend to retaliate?”
“Hmm…”
Yun Shishi hooked her lips and said with a smile, “Do you want me to put it in bluntly? There’s no greater revenge for that man except to make him fall in love with you and then ditch him ruthlessly. This is how he can have a taste of what it’s like to have their feelings played with. However, from what I know of him, he won’t fall in love with you at all, so this plan won’t work for sure. What’s next, then? Are you perhaps thinking of using another method, which you’ve learned from some TV series, where the heroine, after being abandoned by the male lead, goes off to bars and nightclubs to hang out with other men? Is that how you want Gao Nan to see your shallow charms? Doing so may produce results; it’s possible that he’ll find it interesting, and it may even be possible to make him feel the pain of your breakup, but to engage in such a self-harming method just for revenge, in my opinion, is quite ridiculous. If you really want revenge, what you can do is put him and your past behind and live in style. There’s no need to prove anything. Instead, say goodbye to your unpleasant past romance and get back on your two feet properly.”
Her bestie was dumbfounded as she listened. The actress had, surprisingly, gauged her mind clearly.
“Shishi”—her friend admitted it ashamedly—”I’m the one who’s being too childish.”
“It’s natural for you to have such thoughts; after all, you’ve been hit. However, don’t be impulsive and hurt yourself, understand?”
The other woman nodded her head solemnly.
“Alright, let’s stop talking about these unhappy things!”
“Eh! Let’s stop talking about this unhappy affair! Anyway, we’ve broken up, and this relationship was in the past! Still, I’m worried…”
“What are you worried about?”
“I heard some gossip among the crew, so I’m worried that this matter will trouble you.”
“No worries; I’ll settle it!” replied the actress firmly before smiling. “Since you’re here, let’s have dinner together.” Thereafter, she turned to her assistant and invited her. “Come along with us. Tonight is my treat.”
The young assistant responded with much enthusiasm. “Yay! Today is my lucky day; I can dine out for free tonight!”
“It’s not as if you rarely get to enjoy dinner treats, you know!”
“He he!” The young woman could only laugh.
