Chapter 383: Chapter 383
The girl was pushed back a few steps, clearly because Song Xi didn’t control her own strength and really pushed hard. Fortunately, she was wearing flat shoes today, so she didn’t fall over.
But being pushed like that, especially in front of Song Qiao, the girl named Chen Rui immediately turned pale with anger, looked up to see it was Song Xi, and burst into a mocking laugh, "And here I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be Second Miss Song. What, you want to meddle in my affairs too?"
Song Xi had been pampered since she was a child, even within the Song Family, and she had a certain arrogant and domineering air about her. She retorted unapologetically, "So what if I want to meddle?"
"Song Xi, you want to be a busybody?" The girl’s face turned even darker the moment she heard Song Xi’s words, and she spat out the words through clenched teeth.
"When have I ever been a busybody?" Song Xi innocently responded.
Upon hearing Song Xi’s reply, the girl’s expression relaxed slightly, but she still threatened, "If you’re not being nosy, then get out of my way, and you better act as if nothing happened today. Otherwise, I’ll have Sister Su leave you out."
"I didn’t say I wouldn’t deal with this matter, but I also didn’t say it was a trivial matter," Song Xi stated with an innocent face but with affirmation in every word.
Song Qiao tried to stand up, only to realize that she had twisted her ankle. With a frown, she slowly stood up with the support of the wall, grateful that because she was wearing a shirt and cropped pants today, her fall hadn’t exposed anything indecent.
Hearing what Song Xi said and feeling somewhat at a loss, Song Qiao looked up at Song Xi’s retreating figure, utterly confused and clueless about what Song Xi was doing.
When the girl heard her own words, she realized that she had been played by Song Xi and was immediately overwhelmed with rage, pointing at Song Xi and accusing, "Song Xi, you dare to fucking play word games with me?"
Song Xi mocked without mercy, "It’s your own stupidity, don’t blame me for it."
She had deliberately learned how to insult people without using profanity from others because she wanted to quarrel with Song Qiao, to the point where she could leave the other person at a loss for words.
Regrettably, while she had learned how to do so, it was completely ineffective against Song Qiao. Instead, it was her who always ended up so infuriated by Song Qiao that she wanted to beat her up.
But from an early age, her mother had taught her that girls should not resort to violence and that she should be a lady.
So, she had indeed never gotten into a fight.
The girl, upon hearing Song Xi’s words, was so angry that she almost charged forward to slap Song Xi, but reason told her that she couldn’t do such a thing.
Suppressing the anger in her heart, Chen Rui glared at Song Xi with a dark expression and spoke through clenched teeth, "Song Xi, I have no grievance with you, why are you targeting me?"
Upon hearing this, Song Xi found it laughable and turned to face Song Qiao, pointing and asking, "If she has no grievance with you, why are you targeting her?"
Perhaps it was some kind of spell that Song Qiao had cast on her, but when Song Xi saw Chen Rui pushing her down earlier, her mind clouded over and she impulsively came to her aid.
Moreover, there was a thought in her heart that she could bully Song Qiao all she wanted, but nobody else was allowed to do so.
Because humiliating and belittling Song Qiao, making Song Qiao embarrassed, was her right.
The most important thing was that she had developed a sharp tongue but had never won against Song Qiao. Now that someone else had collided with her, she naturally wouldn’t let it slide.
Since she had already offended her, even though she regretted her rashness in her heart, there was no room for regret now.
After all, admitting regret now would be truly embarrassing.
"What grudge I have with this woman is none of your business," the girl burst into anger when she heard her pointing toward Song Qiao, feeling even more enraged. She had been on the verge of success only for Song Xi to come out of nowhere.
"It’s definitely my business," Song Xi didn’t back down, staring at Chen Rui in front of her and warning each word at a time, "Didn’t you know that only I, Song Xi, am allowed to bully Song Qiao? Who do you think you are, daring to push her in front of me?"
With these words, Song Xi grew increasingly furious, as if a raging fire was spreading through her chest. After all, she had honed her skills for so long and never laid a hand on Song Qiao, yet this woman dared to act before her?
Immediately, Song Xi no longer cared about maintaining her ladylike image, and pointed her finger directly at Chen Rui, cursing, "I haven’t laid a finger on you yet? You fucking dare to strike in front of me? Who gave you the courage? Believe it or not, I’ll beat you to death?"
"Song Xi, you..." The girl was clearly taken aback by the anger emanating from Song Xi, and involuntarily took a step back, her face showing sudden remorse.
In terms of status, she could not compete with Song Xi; after all, Song Xi was currently the Second Miss Song, and although her own family ran a company, it did not compare to the grandeur of the Song Family.
Song Qiao looked at Song Xi in her overwhelming rage, feeling somewhat astonished, especially after hearing Song Xi using "fucking" and "I" in curses, she felt somewhat disoriented.
No matter how much Song Xi had scolded or angered her in the past, Song Xi always seemed to appear as a lady in her impression.
When did she learn to speak so ’violently’?
But seeing Song Xi defending her in such a way, Song Qiao suddenly felt a strange sensation spreading slowly inside her.
For a moment, she felt that perhaps Song Xi wasn’t that bad, she probably just... found her unpleasant to look at.
The girl took a glance at Song Qiao, then turned her gaze back to Song Xi, and suddenly having a thought, directly asked Song Xi, "What’s your relationship with this woman?"
"What relationship we have is none of your fucking business," Song Xi replied, not mincing her words at all.
The girl, however, set her gaze on Song Qiao, as if coming to an understanding, "Are you sisters?"
Just now, she seemed to have heard Song Xi calling this woman Song Qiao, and it appeared that the Song Family’s eldest Miss was named Song Qiao... as this thought surfaced in her mind, she felt completely dumbfounded.
However, as if grasping something suddenly, she looked at Song Xi and said, "Aren’t you and your so-called older sister not on good terms?"
