Chapter 1011: Became Someone’s Mistress
Xia Xiaoman’s mother originally thought that the two of them had broken up because of Xu Wenlang. After all, men tended to get tired of things faster than women. She thought that it was Xu Wenlang who wanted to dump her daughter, but now she found out that it was Xia Xiaoman who had brought up breaking up. She was a bit flabbergasted.
“Why did you want to break up?” Xia Xiaoman’s mother instantly became vexed. She felt like she had just lost face in front of the Xu family. “How could you not even discuss such an important matter with me?”
“Mom...” Xia Xiaoman felt both physically and mentally worn out. “Let’s head back first. I’ll explain things to you. Mom, I’m begging you, let’s head back first.”
Xia Xiaoman tried to pull her mother towards the door.
“Why? Xiaoman, why exactly do you want to break up? We should also know the reason, your Big Brother Wenlang also has the right to know what happened. How can you not tell us anything and have your Big Brother Wenlang agree to breaking up with you just because you brought it up? You can’t trample on your Big Brother Wenlang this way,” said Mother Xu with a stern expression.
Xia Xiaoman bit her lips and looked towards Ning Shu for help. She was so scared that her entire body started trembling. It was like she was a criminal waiting for her punishment. Even if she had been a mistress, having to reveal it now made her feel so ashamed that she wished she could just jump off a building.
“Xiaoman, say something?” Xia Xiaoman’s mother was angry with her daughter. When she saw that the Xu family seem pretty displeased, she became fiercer towards Xia Xiaoman. “Damned girl, hurry up and tell us.”
Xia Xiaoman burst out crying. “I’ve become someone’s mistress. I’m not worthy of Big Brother Wenlang! I was the one that had willingly lowered myself to be someone’s mistress.”
After Xia Xiaoman said that, she turned and ran. However, this news left all the people inside the room stunned. Xia Xiaoman’s mother’s face was filled with shock. She glanced at the people inside the room, then hastily chased after Xia Xiaoman.
Mother Xu stared at Ning Shu and asked, “Did you hear what Xia Xiaoman said just now?”
Ning Shu’s expression was very calm. “I heard.”
Father Xu furrowed his brows. “How can this be?”
“She looks like such a good girl, how could she do something like this? How could she become someone’s mistress?” Mother Xu looked towards Ning Shu. “Wenlang, what do you want to do about this? Are you still going to marry Xia Xiaoman?”
Ning Shu shook her head and said to the two parents, “Let’s move. After we move away, I want to go overseas to undertake advanced studies.”
Mother Xu and Father Xu traded a glance. “Move?”
“Alright,” said Father Xu finally. Ning Shu said, “I have a bit of money saved to buy a new house, so let’s just sell this one.”
Ning Shu had a bit of savings. Xu Wenlang had previously saved this up for getting married.
The Xu family parents were worried that their son would be depressed, so they felt it was a good idea to leave this place. Father Xu said, “You should keep that money. If you want to go overseas, then go.”
Mother Xu sighed. How exactly did things become like this? She asked Ning Shu, “Whose mistress is she?”
“I don’t know,” replied Ning Shu calmly. “There’s no need to bring this up anymore. I won’t marry Xia Xiaoman.”
“Our family doesn’t want a girl like this that doesn’t know how to treasure herself anyways,” said Father Xu coldly. “What problem is so hard that she insisted on becoming someone’s mistress?”
Ning Shu returned to her room, showered, and went to sleep. The moment she woke up, she started working on memorizing law clauses. She definitely had to go overseas. One reason was to study in order to develop better. How was she supposed to fight without true abilities? T City was Chu Xiaoran’s territory. He had complete control over this place. The other reason was because she didn’t want to be dragged into the matters between Chu Xiaoran and Xia Xiaoman.
Ning Shu’s plan was to spend at most two years to study. Xu Wenlang clearly had a wonderful future, but due to falling into the whirlpool of love, he ended up even losing his life.
