Chapter 332 - 332 333 Expulsion (1)_1
?Chapter 332: Chapter 333 Expulsion (1)_1 Chapter 332: Chapter 333 Expulsion (1)_1 Nanny Lin questioned what Liang Chen needed seven yuan for all of a sudden. Sensing the deep irritation in his voice, she didn’t dare to ask and ran swiftly towards her own bedroom. Less than half a minute later, Nanny Lin came back with some loose change. Without waiting for the elevator, she scrambled up the stairs to the second floor and then handed Liang Chen seven one-yuan notes from her hand.
With a cold face, Liang Chen accepted the money, handed Nanny Lin back a hundred yuan, glanced at Jing Haohao who just came out from the elevator, snorted and turned back into his room. Standing in front of the couch, he dumped all the forty-six yuan from his wallet and the seven yuan Nanny Lin had given him without restraint into Jing Haohao’s wallet. Then, holding the one thousand yuan that he had taken out from Jing Haohao’s wallet, he swung it at Jing Haohao, who had already stepped into the doorway. He spoke with an undertone of anger, “Seeing that it’s in the spirit of the holiday, I won’t hold today’s incident against you. However, that does not mean I will tolerate your reckless behavior. Attempt to challenge my bottom line further if you dare!”
Wasn’t the time they recently spent together pleasant? Why couldn’t she just maintain the status quo instead of causing him discomfort?
Did she want to leave him that bad? Even the rumors about the ‘Stone Story,’ which was merely a casual game, she had brought up…Since she dared to use that card, he would never just comply with her desires. To think that she could easily get rid of him? No chance!
With these bitter thoughts, Liang Chen stuffed the one thousand yuan into his wallet, strode to the balcony and without blinking threw out the three small stones he had pulled from Jing Haohao’s wrist along with the two ‘Stone Story’ pendant stones he had purchased today.
Afterwards, Liang Chen didn’t bother giving Jing Haohao another glance and went straight to the bathroom. As he bathed, Liang Chen felt an embers of rage in his chest that just wouldn’t die out. By the time he’d finished his bath and walked out, he violently slammed the door shut.
When Liang Chen came out, Jing Haohao was quietly seated on the couch. Her expression seemed cold and distant, lost in her own thoughts.
As Liang Chen dried his hair, he gazed at her form. The crystal light from the bedroom falling on her, making her appear translucent. Her long hair, which had been tied up, had fallen back down, messily falling on her back. Coupled with the red dress, she looked entirely captivating.
As Liang Chen thought of this, he started to rub his hair more aggressively. He rolled his eyes secretly and thought to himself: Captivating? What a great word to describe such a vexing creature!
Unable to help himself, Liang Chen turned his head, focusing on fixing his hair in front of the mirror, refusing to look at Jing Haohao. However, his peripheral vision frequently drifted toward Jing Haohao through the mirror.
In the end, Liang Chen’s gaze fell on Jing Haohao’s wrist, where he had ripped off the ‘Stone Story’ bracelet. The place where the bracelet had been was swollen and turning purple.
Although Liang Chen wanted to ignore it and keep drying his hair, his actions hesitated. Eventually, he threw the towel he was holding onto a nearby stool in frustration and walked out of his room.
Not even two minutes later, Liang Chen came back carrying an ointment. With a still somewhat cold expression, he walked over to the couch and harshly said to Jing Haohao, “Give me your hand.”
