The Emperor's Pampered Wife 88 Friendly Brawl

But such Grandeur was immediately opened up to their Heiress' friends. Madame Liu smiled widely as she moved another plate of Egg Benedict towards Xing Cuifen. She accepted this with grat.i.tude and began gobbling up her food once more. They were all seated there receiving Madame Liu's love and attention as they slowly review their plan for Chungsa's ruining.

"I don't like this idea, Shannie" Yue Xiaoli grumbled when all of them reached an agreement. She felt bothered by their simple and unexciting way of creating trouble. "It takes too much time"

"Sister Xiaoli, there are different ways of handling people. Some people deserve a beating, while some deserve humiliation" Liu Shan jested as she sipped the cup of coffee her mother prepared. She then looked at everyone and reminded Yue Xiaoli of their position. They are heiresses that have an image to uphold. "Besides, the ladies here can't afford to get caught physically hurting someone"

"Let me do the beating" Yue Xiaoli exclaimed making them shake their head.

They are well aware that Yue Xiaoli doesn't mind ruining her image. She's been wild since she was young and her family always tolerate her actions because of how it strengthened her character. Besides, they cannot afford Yue Xiaoli rampaging in their home so they allow her out as much as they can. This very way of thinking made everyone dub their Family the weirdest one there is amongst the Regal Families.

"Sister Xiaoli, you don't have to" Liu Jiayi remarked with a smile. There was no need to go all out on such a tiny enemy. They would only waste their energy if they give too much attention to Chungsa and it might backfire if she uses any physical harm against them. "This is enough to put that little pest in place"

When she saw Yue Xiaoli pout at Jiayi's statement, Qiu Meixiu can't help but sigh. She's way too pampered and used to rampaging that she can no longer learn how to hold back when she's ordered to. "Besides, you had plenty of complaints on your side. If Mr. Hou complains as well, you might give your Grandpa a heart attack"

"Psh" Yue Xiaoli grumbled when she remembered her Grandfather's begging. After she gave quite a beating towards one of the Bei Grandchildren her Grandfather asked her to be more tolerant of their insolence. The one she beat created quite a ruckus forcing her Grandfather to subdue it and ask forgiveness to Grand Elder Bei. She didn't want her Grandfather to do such a thing anymore. "Fine"

"Xiaolian, is everything okay on your side?" Xing Cuifen asked as she watched Xiaolian grin while holding her phone.

"Don't underestimate my technical capabilities, Shannie" she muttered before she showed them her phone connected to the camera on Tan Jia's necklace. The others grinned as well when they saw her get out of her car. "Tan Jia is now on the move"

"That's great" Liu Shan excitedly exclaimed as she placed down her cup. The fun is about to start and they are all looking forward to it. "Cuifen, did you call the mall?"

"Yes. I already reserved the room Chungsa initially requested" Xing Cuifen stated before winking at the. With this, all of them raised from their seat and bid farewell to Madame Liu. Together, they strode towards the front door where all of their cars awaits them. It was a spectacle to behold for everything they own was nothing but marvelous and luxurious.

Be it their clothes, their bag, their shoes, or their car, everything was over the top and it was clear as daylight that they came out to wreck someone apart. They were clearly flaunting and whoever the target is, they are sure in for a surprise.

"Dandan, do you think ignoring them will work?" Cheng Ying asked as he helped Xu Dandan get inside the car alongside Xing Cuifen.

Xu Dandan chuckled at her hesitance. The Elder Sisters are adept at annoying people. They are so good at it that they can already be considered Pro that's why anyone who dares cross them doesn't leave unscathed. "How do you handle people in the past?"

"I usually do a verbal beating" Cheng Ying said with a smile. Even though she's basically laying low as of late and changing herself bit by bit, it still cannot be denied that she used to be a bad girl who likes to make trouble for others. "I'm quite good at it"

"Well, that works as well" Dandan muttered upon remembering what Cheng Ying did at the mall last time they went out. She's indeed pretty good at it and it works wonders but different tactics ought to be used on different opponents.

"But you know, Chungsa is a green-eyed monster so this is a better plan than verbally abusing her" she added with a wicked smile. "Showing off what you have that they don't is the most annoying thing you can do to someone"

Chungsa was always jealous of others who have more than what she has and she tries her very best to bring them down and acquire what they have. She's this vicious and malicious that's why they need not hold back and just verbally abuse her.

For her to go down on her knees, they need to get her where it hurts most and what can hurt more than not having what you have always longed for?

"Won't they suspect Sister Tan Jia?" Cheng Ying asked worriedly. If they proceed with their plan, Tan Jia might get exposed and will be blamed for everything. Won't it affect her career and her family standing?

"Don't worry, Little Cheng" Xing Cuifen said as she patter Cheng Ying's back and urged her to seat with Xu Dandan. "Tan Jia is the most dangerous person I know. She knows how to manipulate people and her acting capabilities makes her impeccable"

Tan Jia was beautiful and had the air of innocence around her, but deep down she's a ferocious monster always waiting for a good opportunity to strike. She had long hidden her true intentions in front of Fe Chungsa so the little fool would never suspect she was the reason for all of her misfortunes. She wasn't crowned Superstar for nothing!

It took her years to perfect her acting abilities and each sacrificed she made was all for Fe Chungsa's begging face!

"Tan Jia, you're late!" Fe Chungsa exclaimed with anger as soon as she saw Tan Jia enter the mall and making everyone turn towards her. The little beauty was wearing a simple white s.h.i.+rt and jeans but the way she confidently wore it made her eye catching.

"Am I?" she asked innocently before she took off her gla.s.ses. When everyone saw her mesmerizing green hue, they began to gasp and take out their cameras to capture a rare picture of their G.o.ddess. Tan Jia had starred in various dramas, films, and even has her own TV show that gives tips to beauty products and makeup.

Her sudden appearance in a mall without any event is a big surprise to them. They knew she was so popular and thus have quite a hectic schedule. For her to appear in front of them is making them ecstatic!

Fe Chungsa rolled her eyes at what she said. She was able to notice the sudden change of atmosphere and she wasn't liking it one bit. "Obviously"

"I'm sorry" Tan Jia said as she gave them her apologetic smile. "My manager and I had to sign a contract first with Alfaras Film so we got delayed"

"Are you starring on another movie, Tan Jia?" Ma Jinjing asked with excitement. She was a big fan of Tan Jia and was utterly glad when she joined in their group and became their friend. The others also looked at Tan Jia with excitement upon hearing Jinjing's question.

"I got the role just today" she replied with a smile in response to their excitement. She then winked at them and drew her index finer towards her luscious lips. "But that's our little secret, okay?"

"Wow!" Jinjing exclaimed as she happily clapped her hands. "Then we need to celebrate!"

Their other friends joined in the hype and began to get close to Tan Jia. Her skills in acting is very amazing and she makes the viewers get drawn to her character. Whether she be the heroine or the villainess, she was still superb and her acting simply impeccable. "We'll finally see you on the big screen again!"

"The taping hasn't started yet though, so it might take a while before it gets released" she politely said creating a humble image to them. The others awed at her action for in front of them was a charming and adorable Tan Jia.

"That's still awesome, Tan Jia"

Another movie from Tan Jia! Now that's worth waiting for!

Ma Jinjing clasped Tan Jia's hands and looked at her kindly. "When that time comes, don't forget to invite us"

"Okay" she chirped with a smile. Their little chatter created a wonderful vibe, but someone wasn't happy on the side with all the attention-getting stolen from her.

Fe Chungsa was clearly not happy and it was clearly written on her face.

She clicked her tongue, unable to take in all their praises directed at Tan Jia. ---Tch. Tan Jia this, Tan Jia that! Can they only see Tan Jia!?

"Let's get going" she mumbled as she began walking away. The others looked at her weirdly before they followed her.

Tan Jia laughed internally at her immaturity. ---She can't even handle such a simple display of power, what will she do later when the Elder Sisters flaunt their wealth?

"Did you reserve the VIP room again, Chungsa?" she asked as she fastened her pace to walk alongside her nemesis. She needs to make sure everything goes according to plan and Fe Chungsa walks into their devious trap.

"Of course" Fe Chungsa said with pride. ---Now, this is worthy of attention! "I don't shop unless I'm in such pedestal since Father doesn't want me to go walking around and tire myself"

Her statement surged something inside Tan Jia. ---This hypocrite!

"My, the benefits of being a Hou" Tan Jia muttered with a smile.

Chungsa smiled proudly at what she said, thinking that it was a compliment when actually it's not.

Tan Jia meant that she only got that because she's leeching from the Hous. It wasn't her hard-earned money nor was it truly hers because in the first place...she wasn't blood-related to the Hous.

Because of her compliment, Chungsa's nose lengthened making Tan Jia smile wickedly in secret.

The more arrogant she gets, the more painful she falls!

"By the way, Tan Jia. I heard you attended Liu Jiayi's birthday party" Ma Jinjing asked in excitement. The celebration was broadcasted on the news so it was no longer a surprise that she knew.

Hearing this, Tan Jia took a side glance at Fe Chungsa who already had her ears perked up in curiosity. She heard from Liu Shan that the little witch tried to get in using Hou Guanyu but wasn't allowed inside. They made sure Hou Wei Yan would attend so they made all preparations as to not ruin her evening by letting Fe Chungsa out.

She must be awfully curious as to why she was invited while she got pushed aside. Tan Jia can't help but want to ruin her mood even more. "They invited me because Liu Jiayi was a fan"

"Wah, I'm so jealous of you Tan Jia. You got to attend such a big scale event!"

Tan Jia chuckled at their excitement. The Lius only invited those who are close to them, those with business transactions with them, those with a bright future in their company, and those born with high enough status and influence. Chungsa's friends were born wealthy but they weren't wealthy enough to step in such stage, especially with Liu Shan watching over their actions. "It was only coincidence. If Jiayi wasn't a fan, I wouldn't have made it there"

"So how was it?"

"It was grand" she replied with a grin on her face before she looked at Chungsa. She needs to feel higher so her fall would be much more painful! "But if Chungsa put her heart to it, she can easily topple it"

"Of course" Chungsa replied with a smirk on her face. Her reaction delighted Tan Jia and made the rest feel glad that they're friends with her. "I rank higher than that Liu Jiayi after all"

Fool.

Even Grandfather Hou gives respect to Liu Enlai, the current head of the Family, and Liu Jiayi's father. Her Grandfather, Liu Ding Xiang was, after all, a part of the Grand Elders who fortified China's economy. They are basically comrades and thus show utter respect to one another.

The Hou's ranked fifth because of their history, their connection to the Xings, and because Grandfather Hou continues to exist. If he is gone, they would surely fall to the 10th place and it's all because Hou Guanyu is blinded by love.

Obviously, the mother and daughter pair, Fe Chungsa and Fe Rou Chao do not know that. They only spend money and use their ranking like blind baboons without fully knowing how everything works in the Regal Families.

Now...they will make her realize just how pathetically stupid she is for using that ranking as if it belongs to her.

After a few more steps, they reached the exclusive VIP room of the mall and Hou Chungsa handed her members.h.i.+p card confidently. They served Fe Chungsa plenty of times so she was sure they remember who she is, but she still wanted to flaunt her ident.i.ty like a greedy and attention-hungry woman. "I'm Hou Chungsa, I made a reservation yesterday"

"Miss Hou" the attendant called out while flas.h.i.+ng her a diplomatic smile. "I'm sorry but you cannot use the VIP room today"

"And why is that?" Chungsa immediately asked in anger. She was denied access to the VIP room? This is something that never happened to her before.

The attendant nodded her head politely. "Someone else already reserved the room"

"You took my reservation yesterday which means it was not yet taken so why in the world are you suddenly telling me this!" Chungsa yelled out making the attendant curse her luck for the day. To face such arrogant heiress is certainly one of her worst luck for the day.

Although quite irritated by Chungsa's shout, the attendant politely smiled and bowed down in apology. "I'm really sorry Ms. Hou"

Angered by her reply, Hou Chungsa clenched her fist and slammed it on the desk. The attendant flinched with her actions but she didn't dare give in to her threat. With might, she roared again with anger filling her face. "Did I just get pushed back!? Do you know who I am!"

"We are well aware of who you are Ms. Hou" she replied calmly. She knew her real ident.i.ty but still, she treated Hou Chungsa kindly. She wasn't one to judge others by their background but rather by their att.i.tude.

With this ferociousness Hou Chungsa was displaying, she could no longer see her as a respectable person. Nonetheless, she needs to treat her well as a customer.

"Then let me in!" she yelled directly at the attendant. The way she's getting treated right now is making her scalp tinge in anger. She was the Great Lady of the Hous. Her honorable t.i.tle and prestige should be enough to make everyone clear out for her. "Right now!"

"I'm really sorry, but we can't do that" the attendant said once more to make her understand that what she's doing right now is a disgrace. Indeed they have a first come first serve policy on their VIP room but the one making the reservation is the owner of the mall herself.

How could they refuse the accommodation!?

No matter how bad they look in Hou Chungsa's eyes, they are merely following orders from the higher-ups. How could she blindly blame them for this situation!?

"Where is your manager! Get me your manager!" she screeched like a maniac. The attendant suddenly felt disgusted by her att.i.tude and was unable to keep up her smiling face anymore.

Tan Jia who was watching on the sideline smirked at her display of craziness. This is the real Fe Chungsa. She's not as graceful and dignified as the rumors say. In fact, she's the complete opposite of it.

She's no honorable Hou Chungsa…but rather a hot-tempered crazy b.i.t.c.h Fe Chungsa!

The attendant looked at her with a poker face and motioned the guards near them to be on guard. "Ms. Hou, please don't make any more trouble or I will call the security"

Fire immediately flashed in her eyes when she heard this statement. Calling the guards on her! Who are they to pull out such card on her! "You b.i.t.c.h! Get your manager right now!"

"Ms. Hou" the attendant called out with warning. Even if they call the manager, the outcome would still be the same. Everyone in the mall was informed by the owner to serve her special guests with care.

They would much rather offend Hou Chungsa than the owner, Xing Xiaoling!

"What's going on here?" someone from behind them suddenly blurted out making everyone abruptly turn around. There stood a bearded man in his 40s with eight das.h.i.+ng ladies behind him.

The attendant sighed in relief when she saw who it was. "Manager"

"So this is your manager" Hou Chungsa remarked as she looked at the old man from head to toe. She then smirked and shamelessly strolled towards him. "Your employee here is telling me bulls.h.i.+ts. I reserved this room yesterday and yet now she's saying I can't use it! Is this---"

"I'm really sorry, Ms. Hou but you really can't use it" he suddenly replied even though Chungsa still has a lot of words to say. He politely smiled at the woman before he looked at the ladies behind him. He bowed at them in apology before he returned his gaze to the woman creating havoc in front of their honored guests. "Someone else has made a reservation"

"And who in the world is higher than me! Why was I pushed back!?" she yelled out without any hint of shame.

Tan Jia almost laughed at her att.i.tude. How despicable!

She then looked at the ladies behind the manager and knew very well that her thoughts and theirs are one and the same. Although their eyes were covered by sungla.s.ses, Tan Jia could certainly tell that disgust crossed their eyes the moment Hou Chungsa began using her family.

Unable to take her crude behavior, Liu Shan stepped in and removed her sungla.s.ses. She then stared innocently at the Manager as though she didn't hear all of Chungsa's nonsensical complaints. "Is something wrong, Manager?"

"Ms. Liu" the manager called out politely before he directed her gaze towards Hou Chungsa who was already glaring at her for interrupting her cries. "This is really embarra.s.sing. Please forgive us for not regulating our mall well"

"I didn't come here to nitpick on your management" Liu Shan blurted out with a smirk on her face. She then allowed her girls to display their charm before she smiled towards Hou Chungsa. She knew the little witch was already checking out their clothes and accessories and was already green in envy.

As though adding fuel to the fire, Liu Shan deliberately made her voice clearer and louder. "I brought my girls with me to have fun so let's not waste our time"

"Please, let's get inside. We have specially prepared the room for you" the manager said as he ushered the attendants to open up the VIP room for their guests. All of them wasted no time and exerted more effort into pleasing the girls.

"Thank you, Manager" she kindly said as she began walking towards the VIP room. When she walked past Hou Chungsa, Liu Shan intentionally let out a mocking sound.

'Pfft'

This sound was enough to make Hou Chungsa explode. Without hesitation, she turned around and grabbed hold of Liu Shan's shoulders. But because of their difference in height, she struggled quite a bit. Nonetheless, she gathered enough strength to make Liu Shan stop from her tracks. "Hey! Wait a minute! We're not done yet"

Liu Shan looked at her hands before she shook it off her shoulders. She then glared at the pest who was looking at her with despise. "Who are you to try and block our path!?"

"I'm Hou Chungsa. I reserved this room first so move it!" she proudly said when she finally realized who Liu Shan is. The Lius are ranked 8th in the ranking while she ranked 5th which means she's higher than the woman in front of her.

She wanted everyone to realize the difference in their rankings!

"Hou?" Liu Shan asked before she looked back at her girls.

"Yes, Hou!"

Cuifen walked towards Liu Shan and whispered in her ears while continuously glancing at Hou Chungsa. Soon, Liu Shan's neutral face displayed utter disgust and hate. Cuifen immediately backed away and smirked at Chungsa making the little idiot flinch in anxiety.

"Ah, the leecher" Liu Shan blurted out, her voice filled with mockery. Her scornful and insulting look directed at Chungsa made everyone in the room feel cold. A s.h.i.+ver run down their spines as Liu Shan took out and alcohol and rubbed it on her hands. With a smirk, she looked behind Liu Jiayi and gave her a warning look. "Little Sister, don't try to touch them. No matter how curious you are, don't try playing in the mud or else a leech will suck on you"

"Hey!" Hou Chungsa yelled out in retaliation. But before she could make her move, Xing Cuifen already beat her to it.

"I believe Manager knows what's best for his company" she remarked, her voice loud and clear and was filled with warning. She then looked at Chungsa and glared at her. This is not the right place for Hou Chungsa to explode.

They��re just beginning their attack.

If she falls now, it would no longer be fun anymore!

"Ahh, my fist is somehow itchy. I don't think I can hold back if someone keeps on lingering around us" Yue Xiaoli suddenly said from the side making them look at her. Chungsa's friends immediately s.h.i.+vered when they saw her.

They had encountered Yue Xiaoli countless of times. Although they aren't her victims, they clearly saw first hand just how brutal she can be. She disregards her position in the Military and her status whenever she fights someone.

She's the type of woman who would never hesitate to beat someone to a pulp mo matter the gender or the position they have. She's the psychopath amongst psychopaths and they clearly don't want to be subjected by her torture!

"Don't be like that" Qiu Meixiu said as she held Yue Xiaolu back. She then looked at Hou Chungsa and smiled kindly at her. "Didn't you say you need new haters because the old ones became your fans. If you damage their face, they won't be able to fawn at you anymore"

"Is that so!?" Xiaoli replied as though surprised by this. Qiu Meixiu can't help but roll her eyes even though they were supposed to be on the same side.

Wanting to divert her attention from Xiaoli's smirking face, she turned towards Xiaolian and noticed her silence. "Are you okay, Xiaolian?"

Xiaolian remained silent as she looked at Chungsa from head to toe. She then walked away and sighed as she pa.s.sed by Chungsa and her lackeys. "Let's get a move on, it stinks here"

"Dandan, should we buy a gift for Big Sister?" Cheng Ying asked as they followed behind Xiaolian and the rest. She wasn't really that proactive in this fight right now. She was set on remaining on the sideline, watching and taking notes, and deciding what gift would suit Wei yan best.

"I was thinking the same thing, Cheng Ying" Xu Dandan said as she smiled at her suggestion. They were the last ones to arrive in the room and thus, the beginning of the show closed curtain as they closed the VIP room and left Hou Chungsa in rage.

"Chungsa, let's just go" Tan Jia said worriedly as she held Hou Chungsa's hands. As expected, Hou Chungsa shoved her hands away causing the others to glare at her att.i.tude.

Tan Jia was innocent! And yet she had the audacity to release her rage at her!

"What the h.e.l.l are you talking about, Tan Jia! We are not leaving, I reserved this room first!" she yelled out as she stomped her feet like a kid with a tantrum. She will not back down!

She won't be Hou Chungsa anymore if she backs down so easily!

"But Chungs--"

"Shut up" she shouted at Tan Jia as she marched towards the VIP room. The attendants and guards immediately blocked her and was firm on their stand on not letting her near the ladies anymore. "Move!"

"Ms. Hou, if you try to go any further, we will be left with no choice but to throw you out and ban you from entering ever again" the main guard said as he gently pushed Hou Chungsa away from the door.

"You can't do this to me!"

"Yes, we can!"

"Chungsa, let's just go" Tan Jia said as she pulled Chungsa away. Her actions is turning more shameless and horrendous by the second. The first phase is already over, so they need to leave. She needs to keep Chungsa from getting thrown out to not ruin their plan. "We don't want to be thrown out like some trash. That would be humiliating"

"I don't want that as well" Ma Jinying also said which then sent the others to blurt out the reb.u.t.tal to her actions. It's fine if she gets humiliated but involving them is a very different issue. Besides, Moonlight Dusk Mall is a prestigious mall where most celebrities and big shots frequent. Getting banned from entering the mall is nothing but shameful and it will taint their image.

They cannot allow such a thing to happen!

Tan Jia sweetly smiled at Chungsa as she helped her walk away from the scene. "Besides, we can still look around and shop. We don't have to use the VIP room to have fun"

"Still---"

"It would be safer" she added as she looked at the others who nodded in chorus to support Tan Jia and save themselves from the shame Chungsa's about to inflict.

"Tan Jia is right" Ma Jinjing said as she helped Tan Jia pull Chungsa away from the scene. "Let's just go, Chungsa"

Although still filled with rage, Chungsa was left with no choice but to retreat and allow herself to get pulled by her friends. Their retreat was seen by the ladies inside the VIP room thanks to Xiaolian and it satisfied them to see Chungsa's crestfallen face.

"Wow, Sister Tan Jia is really good at acting. It's scary how she can make them do as we want" Cheng Ying exclaimed in excitement when she saw how Tan Jia successfully lead Chungsa away. This was all part of the plan.

They want to annoy Chungsa bit by bit till the hatred could acc.u.mulate in her chest. Since their actions weren't that grave to begin with as they are only annoying in secret, if Chungsa charges at them she would only be digging her own grave and humiliating herself.

"You know what they say, one fake friend can bring more damages than five enemies" Xing Cuifen said as she checked out the custom made Handbag Liu Shan ordered for her.

"So what's our next move?" Meixiu asked as she did her best to keep Yue Xiaoli interested in the displays inside the room rather than the fight that's about to happen.

Liu Shan smiled before she turned towards Xiaolian who was a.s.signed on monitoring Chungsa's entourage. "Where are they headed, Xiaolian?"

"Golden Treasury" she mumbled as when she saw the fine signage displayed in the monitor of her phone. Golden Treasury is widely known and sought after because as what the name suggest, they offer golden and high gla.s.s accessories and treasures they acquired all over the globe.

"Knowing that idiot, she'll go for the expensive, glittery and enormous jewelries" Liu Shan remarked with a smirk. Hou Chungsa is so predictable it's as easy as breathing for her. "We need to gather what she wants"

Xing Cuifen smiled at what she said and immediately motioned the manager close to them. "Make the call, Manager"

"Yes, Young Miss"

Liu Jiayi who was checking out some dresses alongside Xu Dandan couldn't help but ask an important question. If she's going to buy whatever Hou Chungsa wants so she could annoy her, what will she do with the acquired items? "What are you going to do with those, Big Sister?"

"Ethereal is having a charity event soon. We'll just include them to the auction. After all, Golden Treasury only has limited edition jewelries that rich woman likes" Liu Shan immediately answered with a smirk. Of course, she already thought of it before they started the plan. This way she wouldn't be wasting her money and gather even more funds for charity.

"I'm hungry" Yue Xiaoli suddenly grumbled as she plopped herself beside Liu Shan on the couch. "Where are you planning on eating?"

"I made a reservation at Renegade" Xing Cuifen answered as she sat beside her. Knowing Yue Xiaoli, she went for the restaurant with huge servings. Even though she has quite a dangerous body, the little psycho eats more than a dinosaur.

Hearing the restaurant name delighted her very much. As she began imagining the dishes she will order a text message suddenly arrived. The content of it was cla.s.sified but it made her eyes twinkle more than the restaurant they will visit later. In excitement, she jumped up her seat like a spring and her face displayed nothing but happiness. "Oh Yes!"

"What's up?" the others immediately asked when they saw her enthusiasm. What made her so ecstatic?

"Look! Look! I was thinking of doing something fun when this message came up" she yelled out as she showed it to Meixiu who immediately sighed at it. "I have another mission!"

"Ah, I beg forgiveness to the heavens and wish peace for the next target's soul" Meixiu immediately grumbled when she saw the content of the text. Looks like Yue Xiaoli will have her fun soon but someone else will receive their doom because of it.

She smiled widely at this before she turned towards Liu Shan. She has another brawl coming up but it doesn't mean she will neglect the current one in front of her. "When is the action starting!?"

"Soon" Liu Shan softly mumbled when she saw Hou Chungsa's dejected and raged face on the monitor. The plan was already starting and whatever Hou Chungsa wanted…Liu Shan did all means to take it.

.....

"Urgh! Everything that I want is being taken!" Hou Chungsa exasperated as they walked out of another store without anything in their hand. Everywhere they went, all the expensive stuff that they wanted are taken away from them.

Tan Jia gently touched her shoulders and kindly ushered her to calm down. Like a sly little fox, she leads her to think what went wrong with her day and whose fault it was. It was time for the finally showdown as Chungsa reached the maximum amount of embarra.s.sment she can take. "Maybe it's just not your lucky day, Chungsa"

"No! It's all because of that b.i.t.c.h, Liu Shan!" she yelled out in vexation.--- It was as clear as broad daylight that this whole thing is orchestrated by Liu Shan! That b.i.t.c.h Liu Shan is the one at fault!

Just as she was cursing Liu Shan and the others in her head, she heard familiar laughter coming from behind them. She abruptly turned around and almost puked blood in anger when she saw them casually and happily talking to one another as they enter Heartstring Fas.h.i.+on. Driven by both rage and envy, she marched towards them without delay forcing the others to follow behind her. "She's asking for trouble!"

"Chungsa, calm down" Tan Jia yelled out as she chased after the little witch. She sounded so concern for Chungsa, but inside, she was already laughing at the lunatic. ---That's it, dig your own grave. It would be most satisfying if you fall deeper in the trap and lose control of yourself. Show the whole world who you really are, Fe Chungsa!

"Liu Shan has Xing Cuifen with her. If you make a move, you'll incur the wrath of the Xings" she added and made Chungsa turn around to face her. She immediately used her teary and worried play card which made Chungsa's resolve to intensify. She's not someone who easily backs down and her want to wreak havoc only intensifies when someone cries and begs for her to stop.

"I don't f.u.c.king care anymore!" she exclaimed in rage before she pushed Tan Jia's hands away. Without hesitation, she barged inside Heartstring Fas.h.i.+on and gave Liu Shan quite a greeting. "Hey, b.i.t.c.h!"

"b.i.t.c.h!?" Liu Shan exclaimed as she looked at the woman in front of her from head to toe. Bewilderment was marked in her face as she scoffed at her disgraceful att.i.tude. "Excuse me, do I know you!?"

Anger immediately crossed the little witch's face when she heard this statement. They met earlier! She even mocked her earlier and was targeting her even after they left the VIP room. ---How dare she feign ignorance of my ident.i.ty!

"It's Hou Chungsa!" she yelled out with all her might causing the other customer to take notice of the brawl. Not long after they were surrounded by people eager to know the gossip and witness the entire scene. With rage and vigor, Chungsa raised her hands in an attempt to stop Liu Shan.

But her actions woke up the sleeping and fight deprived lioness everyone know as Yue Xiaoli. Her hands stopped mid-air as it was caught by Xiaoli's Hercules grip. She tightened her hold and smirked at her currently red face. "Hey little birdbrain, I don't think you have any right to lay a finger on my friend"

"Who is she anyway?" Liu Shan asked once more causing Hou Chungsa to tremble in anger.

She thought so highly of herself and cannot accept the fact that her ident.i.ty was forgotten!

Noticing her contorted face and her pathetic figure trembling under Yue Xiaoli, Liu Jiayi decided to add fuel to the fire. She went close to her sister and whispered loudly the information she wanted everyone to learn regarding Hou Chungsa.

"Big Sister, that's Hou Chungsa. We met her earlier. The daughter of Uncle Hou's mistress. He adopted her and made her a Hou"

"Oh" Liu Shan exclaimed before she stared at her with mockery. "She was that!? No wonder she has no manners. Such uncultured brat. Was she not properly educated?"

"What did you say! Father sent me to Jingying Academy---"

"That doesn't mean you automatically become an elite just because you studied there" she remarked as she cupped Chungsa's face and drew it close to her. Her eyes were already teary from the pain but she refused to back down and still went on with the whole glaring compet.i.tion.

"Listen, little girl. We all came from the Regal Families and studied in Jingying but we are different from you" Liu Shan began as she made Hou Chungsa understand that the school she came from doesn't define who she is. She has no right to use the school's name to issue dominance. "Ever since we were young we made sure to do the best we can to protect the wealth and prestige that was bestowed to us. We polished ourselves, made sure to excel and treasure the education we were given and not flaunt it for dominance"

"Unlike you who polished some other seduction skills, we polished our fist so we can protect ourselves and the people we love. So raising your hand against us who are equipped with dangerous skills is plain idiotic. It just proves how pathetic the blood running in your veins is" she added with a smirk dominating her face. Their group was well known because all of them could fight, all of them could wield a weapon, and all of them could kill if they want to.

That's why very few people try to cross them because the consequence of seeking a fight with their group could be injuries or death!

And yet Hou Chungsa was foolish enough to dare and swing her hands on them. Losing her temper and charging at them, if this was a battlefield she would long be dead.

"Let her go, Xiaoli" Qiu Meixiu instructed when she saw the little psycho tightening her grip even though Liu Shan already made her point. "You'll dirty your hands"

"Let's just go" Xing Cuifen interjected as she slowly moved back. She knew that if they fake a retreat, Chungsa would charge at them instead like a mindless bull. "We're wasting our time with some pest"

"Shut the f.u.c.k up! We're not done yet" Hou Chungsa roared once again as she tried her best to appear dominant. However, her actions only made Liu Shan smirk.

"I think we already are" she replied making the spectators to snicker. This wasn't much of a fight but it was interesting enough to hook them up till the end.

Hearing their snickers made Hou Chungsa clench her fist in vexation. Without thinking much, she grabbed the woman behind Liu Shan. She grabbed hold of her shoulders and yanked her to look at her.

But what a mistake she made for the one she yanked was the lioness trying her very best not to pounce at her and gobble her up whole!

Anger immediately drifted in Yue Xiaoli's eyes while the others only had shocked expression in their faces. They tried so hard to suppress her and yet the fool dug her own grave more than she should! "Xiaoli!"

Although she heard Qiu Meixiu's warning shout, Yue Xiaoli still smirked before she clenched her fist and swung it towards Hou Chungsa's face without delay.

The impact was strong but not strong enough to knock out teeth. Hou Chungsa stumbled on the ground with her nose bleeding from the sudden collision. She immediately grabbed her handkerchief before angrily pointing a Yue Xiaoli. "You---"

"They asked me to think before I act...so if I smack the s.h.i.+t out of you, that means I thought about it and I'm f.u.c.king confident of my decision" she confidently said before she dusted the imaginary dust on her shoulders. Afterward, she glared at the falling witch and reminded her of who she was facing. "I'm Yue Xiaoli and no one has ever left unscathed by offending me. Even the army men I trained fear me so f.u.c.king step back before I do more damage to your disgusting face"

Everyone was left speechless by what she said. Her voice sounded so horrifying and it made some s.h.i.+ver in fright. Before any of them could recover, she abruptly faced her friends and pouted which sent them to stand still, petrified. She changed so fast they couldn't cope up with it! "Hey, I'm hungry"

"Grab her" Liu Shan ordered with a sigh. She asked them countless of times not to go overboard but she went for a shot anyway. If they allow her to roam freely, they might find themselves in deep trouble.

"You piece of s.h.i.+t! Come back here! Your family will pay for this!" Hou Chungsa yelled when she saw them walking away while protectively surrounding Yue Xiaoli.

She cannot leave without paying the price of hurting her!

However, Yue Xiaoli remained unfazed. In fact, she felt slightly irritated by her voice but since she was restrained, she can only blurt out words instead of swinging her fist once more. "Ah, the dog is still barking"

Shannie shook her head at Chungsa's actions so she turned around with a deadly glare. "Look, I don't give a f.u.c.k if you think I'm a piece of s.h.i.+t. I can do uglier things than this"

"I can make living in h.e.l.l look easy" she added before she walked outside with the ladies tolling beside her. As soon as they went out of the store, a smirk was immediately displayed on their faces before they looked at one another, their smiling widening to a frightening degree by the second.

Tan Jia sighed in relief once they left and she was unscathed. Even a single slap from one of them could ruin a face and since her face is one of her investments, she can't allow it to get ruined! --- Thank G.o.d I wasn't slapped

"Chungsa" she called out worriedly as she supported her in standing straight. Before she could say something more, Hou Chungsa went into a fit once more as the earlier scenes played out in her mind.

She got humiliated! She got humiliated badly!

"I won't forget about this humiliation!" she roared even though the enemies already left the premises. She turned around and tried to redirect her anger from the spectators who are looking at her with mockery. "What are you looking at! Delete that video right now!"

"Pfft" one feisty student from Jingying loudly babbled as a sign of dismissal. Without saying anything more, she turned around and left causing the others to follow suit.

"Why is everyone against me today!?" Hou Chungsa cried out quite pitifully as she slumped back on the ground. Her friends looked at one another, not really sure how they would react to such a situation.

Tan Jia secretly rolled her eyes at her sudden display of emotions. She looked so pitiful but she was surely trying to get their sympathy by acting like a completely pitiful victim.---Tch. Isn't that because karma came knocking in your door!? Back in Jingying Academy...you used to trample over those below you and used the Hou ranking in the most disgusting way possible. This is payback for all of those people you humiliated before. That includes me and Qian Qian you piece of s.h.i.+t!'

"Chungsa, let's go" she warmly said as she wiped her tears away. Tan Jia flashed her a rea.s.suring smile filled with a warmness that even those who weren't paying much attention anymore felt slightly moved by her compa.s.sion. "Crying over those women is forfeiting to them. Don't let this bring you down"

"Tan Jia" Hou Chungsa called out as she sniffed.

"Besides, you still have us" she replied to her calls before looking at the others. They immediately smiled at what she said and tried their best to redeem themselves. "We're your friends remember? A friend is a person who knows all about you but likes you anyway"

Because of her warm words, Hou Chungsa's heart was immediately filled with happiness and warmth. Without saying anything, she pounced at Tan Jia and hugged her tightly. "Tan Jia"

Tan Jia smiled as she buried Chungsa's head in her warm embrace. She looked so compa.s.sionate and angelic on the surface, but deep inside, Tan Jia was filled with dark thoughts and rage for the woman crying on her shoulders. ---This is not the end, Fe Chungsa! This is not the end!

"I'll always be here for you" she mumbled softly in Chungsa's ears. She will always be there, patiently waiting for her ruining.
