I smiled and said, "I plan to work a summer job with Lin Shuqin to earn some pocket money for college."
Ma Yuan looked a bit surprised. "With Lin Shuqin?"
I nodded. "Yeah. What's wrong?"
Ma Yuan whispered, "I just feel like she doesn't seem like a good person..."
I couldn't help but laugh. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Only then did Ma Yuan nod in agreement.
Suddenly, a scream echoed from the villa.
Ma Yuan and I exchanged glances and hurried back inside.
Guests were gathered around the door of a bedroom, murmuring among themselves.
I pushed through the crowd and entered the room.
Xue Ming and Lin Shuqin were lying on the bed, both disheveled...
A chorus of hushing sounds filled the air.
Uncle Xue's face turned pale with rage as he slapped Xue Ming hard.
"You scoundrel!"
Xue Ming hung his head in silence.
Lin Shuqin, wrapped in a blanket, had red-rimmed eyes and said, "Uncle Xue, please don't blame Xue Ming; it's all my fault..."
Uncle Xue's expression darkened even further.
Ma Yuan tugged at my sleeve. "Shan Shan..."
I shook my head slightly, signaling her to stay calm.
Uncle Xue said coldly, "I'll discuss this with the Lin family; this matter won't just end here."
With that, he turned and left the bedroom.
Lin Shuqin began to cry even harder.
I watched the scene unfold with a blank expression, but inside I felt an exhilarating sense of satisfaction.
"Do you think you can compete with me, Lin Shuqin? You're still too inexperienced."
That night, the Lin family left the Xue family after resolving their issues. It seemed that both families had reached a consensus.
As I passed by the study, I overheard Uncle Xue and Aunt Xue chatting.
Uncle Xue said coldly, "Prepare for the engagement banquet as soon as possible. The sooner, the better."
Aunt Xue asked softly, "Old Xue, have we discussed it with Xiao Ming? Shouldn't we just set the date for the wedding..."
Uncle Xue snorted, "Discuss what? After he did something like that, does he even have the face to discuss it with me?"
Aunt Xue sighed, "Sigh, Xiao Ming shouldn't have done something like that..."
Uncle Xue fell silent.
The next day, I was getting ready to go out to work a summer job with Ma Yuan. Just as I stepped outside, I was stopped by Xue Ming.
"Shan Shan."
I frowned slightly. "What is it?"
Xue Ming lowered his head, looking somewhat pained. "About yesterday, I'm sorry for what happened."
I blinked and feigned confusion. "What happened yesterday?"
Xue Ming opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.
I scoffed. "Xue Ming, are you too cowardly to own up to your actions?"
Xue Ming hurriedly replied, "It's not that I'm afraid; I just want to explain things clearly to you."
I laughed coldly. "Explain? What is there to explain?"
Xue Ming took a deep breath. "Yesterday, I was drugged by Lin Shuqin, which is why I ended up doing that."
I raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? So in your past life, was it also Lin Shuqin who drugged you?"
Xue Ming froze for a moment. "You..."
I sneered. "Xue Ming, is it fun to deceive yourself?"
Xue Ming lowered his head, a pained expression on his face. "I really know I was wrong, Shan Shan. Please give me another chance, okay?"
I smiled faintly and remained silent.
Xue Ming hurriedly stepped in front of me. "Shan Shan, believe me one more time. I promise I won't let you down again."
I still didn't respond.
With red-rimmed eyes, Xue Ming pleaded, "Shan Shan, please forgive me this time, okay?"
I sighed, feeling a bit helpless. "Xue Ming, it was the same situation in our past life."
Xue Ming froze.
I spoke softly, "You deceived me, deceived everyone. You drugged yourself and then slept with Lin Shuqin."
Xue Ming's lips trembled slightly, his eyes glistening with tears, but he couldn't find the words to speak.
