Dongfang Rou’er was rendered speechless, but her reaction was quick enough. Looking at Dongfang Liu Yun’s indifferent face, she thought for a moment and replied with a smile, “If it helps you feel better then I don’t mind what you think.”
Retreat to advance?
Dongfang Liu Yun raised her eyebrows and looked at Dongfang Rou’er in surprise, “I am somewhat gratified by your improvement. In my impression, you have always been someone who likes to take the initiative to attack. Retreating to advance is not your style.”
“Miss Liuyun, you don’t have to always target my fiancée. Judging from your tone, you seem to be very dissatisfied with her. I hope you can show her some respect.”
“Master Jin, I’ve said it before. I’ve always thought that respect is mutual. If it weren’t for you guys blocking my way, your so-called target wouldn’t exist. Of course, if you really intend to be a protector to show off your outstanding image, or if you want to make tomorrow’s entertainment headlines, I don’t mind helping.”
Dongfang Liuyun had never been a person who would swallow her pride. She knew very well who she could tolerate and who she should deal with. She did not need to expect Dongfang Ren and the others to be merciful in exchange for her backing down, she had long seen through such a scenario.
Therefore, she did not expect any sisterhood from Dongfang Rou’er. Dongfang Liuyun knew very well that Dongfang Rou’er was just like her. They were both proud people. Perhaps one day, one of them would completely collapse, only then would the battle end.
And, was this Jin Sheng not a sign that she, Dongfang Rou’er, was declaring war?
Jin Sheng’s expression sank as expected!
He naturally knew that a woman like Dongfang Liuyun was a thorny rose. When he had first come into contact with her, he had not taken advantage of her. The radiance on her body was too dazzling, even though he knew that it was not something an ordinary man could control, he still gritted his teeth in hatred. He really did not know what kind of scene it would be if such a woman were to crawl under his feet!
At this moment, Dongfang Rou’er’s expression softened because of Jin Sheng’s protection. She reached out to stop Jin Sheng, “You don’t have to interfere in the matters between Fourth Sister and I. Anyway, this isn’t something that happens once or twice. I’m already used to it.”
“Your words are easy to misunderstand. Fifth Sister, you have to be clear. The person who wants to embarrass everyone is you. I have no interest in accompanying you to tarnish your image in public. Also, if you want to use me as a touchstone to show your gentleness and kindness, or to display your unique temperament, then I advise you not to have any ideas about me. I’m an extraterrestrial meteorite. I’m afraid that you won’t be able to control the degree and will directly lose yourself. That won’t be good.”
Dongfang Liuyun looked at Dongfang Rou’er’s silent gaze with great pleasure—
She admitted that she was happy to see her opponent in such a dejected state, but this was only the beginning.
“Fourth Sister, I have always respected you, but your attitude towards me makes me very disappointed. You don’t have to target me like this. We all have Dongfang blood flowing in our veins.”
“You don’t have to use blood ties to tell me. The things you have done are enough to erase these words. Oh right, I forgot to congratulate you. You have succeeded in putting me in my place. Your mother, Lin Yuanyuan, did indeed let me be in charge of that project. If you feel a little more balanced in your heart, then you can step aside now.”
A cold expression appeared on Dongfang Liuyun’s small face. She indifferently withdrew her gaze, lifted the backpack on her shoulder, and strode over.
Dongfang Rou’er took a deep breath and pulled Jin Sheng to the side, making way for Dongfang Liuyun.
Dongfang Liuyun walked down the stairs, and her thin and sonorous figure quickly disappeared from their sight.
Dongfang Rou’er’s hands were already tightly clenched. She had endured this kind of endurance many times over the past twenty years.
Dongfang Liuyun, one day you will be at my feet. I want to let everyone know that I, Dongfang Rou’er, will never be inferior to you. Moreover, I am also the woman who has the most right to stay by his side!
Dongfang Rou’er stared at Dongfang Liuyun’s figure as she gradually disappeared from her sight. She clenched her teeth as she screamed in her heart in a heart-wrenching manner.
However, if she could not bear it, then she would mess up the big plan!
Dongfang Rou’er knew this logic too well. Therefore, every time, she had to rely on her powerful self-control to pull her rationality back.
“Fourth Sister is always like this. Don’t take it to heart. Just pretend that what happened today never happened.”
After a long while, Dongfang Rou’er slowly let go of Jin Sheng’s large hand and walked forward.
Jin Sheng unhurriedly retracted his gaze and turned to look at Dongfang Rou’er. His gaze instantly became gentle as he replied, “It’s fine. I was just worried that you would be taken advantage of. Has she always been targeting you like this?”
“You saw it too, didn’t you? She has always been brooding over the matter of the successor. Actually, you can’t blame her.”
Dongfang Rou’er took a deep breath and lowered her eyes. Her voice could not hide the bitterness in it as she said, “You are also very clear about the situation here, aren’t you?”
Jin Sheng nodded and stretched out his hand to hold Dongfang Rou’er’s arm. “Don’t be too hard on yourself. I’ve always known that the relationship between the two of you is a little stiff.”
“It’s not a little stiff, it’s very stiff. In her words, this is the historical inevitability between us. I’ve gotten used to it all these years. I’ve carefully handled the relationship between these people. It wasn’t easy for me to maintain a barely peaceful situation. She’s different from me. She’s always been a person who does whatever she wants. I can only tolerate her.”
Dongfang Rou’er’s tone was filled with helplessness. As she spoke, she let out a bitter laugh, “Jin Sheng, I’ve told you before. I’ve never thought of pretending to be a gentle and kind woman in front of you. I’m not convinced, and I’m not willing either. I also hope that one day, in such a huge Dongfang Group, there will be a position that truly belongs to me, Dongfang Rou’er. Can you understand this feeling?”
“You might not know how many times I’ve wanted to lose my temper on the spot, but I can’t do it. I don’t want to see any flaws in my image or my hard work.”
Dongfang Rou’er took a deep breath and slowly walked down the stairs as she spoke.
“I can’t be as unbridled as her because…”
Dongfang Rou’er did not continue speaking. She merely lowered her eyes and laughed.
Jin Sheng watched on and hesitated for a moment before following her. He quietly followed beside her.
