Chapter 1262 - 1185: The Third Party
Ji Xiangling bit her lip, her complexion looking even worse than before.
Arranging for Shi Jiaojiao to meet Shen Zui was just a small request to satisfy Shi Jiaojiao, so she would be more obedient in the future.
She stealthily left a recorder in the private room without any other intentions, but who would have thought she’d hear such explosive news from the conversation between Shi Jiaojiao and Shen Zui?
Ji Xiangling knew Song Yansheng married Shi Nuan, but she believed that since Song Yansheng’s heart was with another woman, the marriage with Shi Nuan wouldn’t last long.
But if there was a child, it would be different; that would be a lifelong entanglement, something Ji Xiangling feared the most.
Fortunately, Shi Nuan lost the child when she fell into the water this time. If the child had been born safely, no matter what Song Yansheng thought of Shi Nuan...
Both she and Chu Jingyun would never have another chance.
Ji Xiangling did not like Shi Nuan, really did not like her.
But she could see that Shi Nuan was a girl with strong self-esteem, and there must be reasons for her reliance on Song Yansheng.
And this reason was definitely not love.
However, Song Yansheng was a very charming man, and most women had little resistance in front of him.
Shi Nuan was young, and how could she withstand Song Yansheng’s doting affection?
So Shi Nuan unexpectedly got pregnant, which did not surprise her.
Today, coming to find Shi Nuan, she indeed had a hint of uncontrollable eagerness to verify, but more so, she wanted to see Shi Nuan’s attitude.
Does Shi Nuan actually want to have Song Yansheng’s child?
Or was she thinking of using the child to bind Song Yansheng for life?
Shi Jiaojiao said that neither Shi Nuan nor Song Yansheng knew about the child, but Ji Xiangling disagreed.
Women have various reactions before pregnancy, and even if Shi Nuan didn’t know, she should have been suspicious.
Today, she asked directly without using shortcuts, unafraid of what might be known.
Shi Jiaojiao feared Shi Nuan would tell Song Yansheng if she knew, while Shen Zui worried Shi Nuan would be saddened.
But she was unafraid.
Not afraid of Shi Nuan knowing, nor of Shi Nuan telling Song Yansheng.
First, Shi Nuan’s sadness had nothing to do with her.
Moreover, she was sure that Shi Nuan absolutely wouldn’t tell Song Yansheng.
Yes, absolutely wouldn’t.
Now, looking at Shi Nuan, although there was some flicker in her eyes, her expression was very calm.
There was no shock or confusion; it was obvious Shi Nuan already knew.
She gave a cold smile and said, "Shi Nuan, I remember I once reminded you, A Yu has a woman he deeply loves in his heart. You only temporarily have A Yu because you resemble her more than I do, but you will never have A Yu forever. Even the identity of the woman in A Yu’s heart is something you cannot accept or endure. Under such circumstances, you still dared to let yourself get pregnant, you really have some nerve!"
Shi Nuan’s thin lips moved slightly before she spoke calmly, saying, "Song Yansheng and I are legally married, and we’ve been married for about five months now. Although I am young, Song Yansheng is nearly thirty. Isn’t it normal for us to have a child? Lady Ji, with you saying this, aren’t you being a bit too nosy?"
"You..." Ji Xiangling frowned, gritting her teeth. "Shi Nuan, don’t be ungrateful. I’m trying to persuade you for fear you might get hurt worse in the future. If you knew who the woman in A Yu’s heart was..."
"I’m not interested in knowing!" Shi Nuan interrupted coldly, saying, "I have to admit, I am interested in who Song Yansheng’s heart belongs to, but being interested doesn’t mean I must know. We are already married; no matter his reason for marrying me, I am already married to him, and that’s a fact. Moreover, I believe, if that woman really existed, or if there’s a chance between him and her, Song Yansheng by no means would’ve married me. He isn’t reckless or willful about dealing with his life casually!"
Shi Nuan lowered her gaze and added, "Besides, I know Lady Ji and Song Yansheng have had some entanglements. Song Yansheng has mentioned it to me. I always believe that mutual encounters and love between two people depend on fate. I don’t like to compete with others, but I also won’t casually give away what belongs to me... So, I kindly ask Lady Ji to remember one thing—Song Yansheng is now married, he is my husband! I believe Lady Ji, as a distinguished socialite, should not want to bear the label of a home wrecker, right?"
A home wrecker?
Ji Xiangling’s face turned pale at these three words. She suddenly stood up, grabbed Shi Nuan’s arm, and said angrily, "What did you say? Who’s the home wrecker? Who’s the home wrecker?"
Shi Nuan looked at her coldly and said, "Isn’t it quite obvious who’s the home wrecker? Lady Ji, my temper isn’t bad, so I’ve chosen to ignore many of the things you’ve done before. But I’m not someone to be easily bullied, nor will I allow anyone to repeatedly act wildly over my head. Lady Ji is an excellent fashion designer, but I, Shi Nuan, am the young lady of the Shi Family, a shareholder of the Shi Family, and the mistress of the Song Mansion. Not everyone can bully me!"
Ji Xiangling was instantly stunned, unable to believe that Shi Nuan would say such things to her.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but Shi Nuan didn’t give her the chance. Shi Nuan violently shook off Ji Xiangling’s wrist, stepped back two steps, and said, "Lady Ji, if I remember correctly, we aren’t that close. Naturally, you may feel that you’re quite familiar with my husband, but that has nothing to do with me. If you have anything to say, go directly to him, if you can meet him... As for me, I prefer a quieter environment and don’t like being disturbed time and time again by inexplicable people!"
She paused for a moment and continued, "Well, Lady Ji, make yourself at home, I’m leaving now!"
After speaking, Shi Nuan didn’t look at Ji Xiangling again and turned to leave.
Ji Xiangling stood there, wanting to call her back, but ultimately didn’t.
She had indeed had few encounters with Shi Nuan, but this girl had always behaved calmly, quietly listening, without much reaction after listening.
It seemed to be just listening and knowing.
But today, she seemed very aggressive, and every word she said pierced straight into Ji Xiangling’s heart.
Ji Xiangling knew that even though Shi Nuan wasn’t the person in Song Yansheng’s heart, in comparison, she actually had no advantage over Shi Nuan.
Song Yansheng acquired Shi Nuan only a few months ago, but she lost Song Yansheng eight years ago.
No... actually, that’s wrong—she never really had Song Yansheng.
Yes, never had him, neither did Chu Jingyun.
But at this moment, Shi Nuan completely possesses Song Yansheng.
After all, Xu Hua is gone, and Shi Nuan is Xu Hua’s only daughter. With Song Yansheng being so passionate, he will likely protect her for life.
