Sheng Chenjin naturally knew Shi Xinxin was always this stubborn, but this damned stubbornness made him feel defeated.
Shi Xinxin pointed at Sheng Chenjin angrily. "I'm telling you, Sheng Chenjin. Not everyone has as much property as you do, but I'm also telling you that none of us have to be humiliated by you just because we have less money."
Sheng Chenjin looked at Shi Xinxin, anger flashing in his eyes.
Shi Xinxin still pointed at Sheng Chenjin's nose and scolded, "People like you will not have a good end. Sheng Chenjin, since we've broken up, I hope we can part on good terms. Don't be so childish and come bothering me."
"Hmph, Shi Xinxin, what do you think you are?" Sheng Chenjin looked extremely contemptuous. "Bothering you? You think you're worthy of my bother? Shi Xinxin, you think too highly of yourself."
Shi Xinxin replied coldly to Sheng Chenjin, "Sheng Chenjin, I don't think that way. But you shouldn't go too far. You're a big boss, so watch your mouth. You also know what I do. If I were to expose your affairs, who knows what kind of opinion the outside world would have of you, a talented young achiever."
Sheng Chenjin raised an eyebrow. "Do you think I wouldn't dare to touch a small magazine company?"
Shi Xinxin glared fiercely at Sheng Chenjin. She knew Sheng Chenjin's capabilities, but at the same time, she detested this Sheng Chenjin, so overbearing, so arrogant, so filled with hatred.
"Get out! Sheng Chenjin, never appear before me again. Leave!" Shi Xinxin almost roared the command at Sheng Chenjin.
Looking at Shi Xinxin at this moment, Sheng Chenjin became even more indifferent.
But his feet couldn't move. Perhaps because he hadn't seen Shi Xinxin for so long, Sheng Chenjin couldn't bear to just leave after arguing with her, even though his reason was about to completely collapse.
But Shi Xinxin was furious. She waited coldly for Sheng Chenjin. When Sheng Chenjin didn't leave, Shi Xinxin pulled Xu Jiayi. "Let's go. We don't need to talk to this kind of person. It's a waste of our time and breath."
Just like that, Shi Xinxin pulled Xu Jiayi and walked away angrily from Sheng Chenjin's side, without even a backward glance. One could imagine how heartbroken Sheng Chenjin was at that moment.
Sheng Chenjin clenched his fists tightly, but without turning back, he let Shi Xinxin leave.
When he got back into the car, Sheng Chenjin felt some regret. He didn't even know why he had said those words, those hurtful words, knowing they would only make Shi Xinxin resent him more.
Sheng Chenjin angrily punched the steering wheel.
Meanwhile, Xu Jiayi looked at Shi Xinxin, who was also fuming.
In fact, Shi Xinxin had gone to the company that morning and forgotten to bring some documents. In her rush, she bumped into Xu Jiayi. Xu Jiayi drove Shi Xinxin back to get them. Who knew Sheng Chenjin would be waiting outside Shi Xinxin's residence.
"Don't be angry. I haven't even said anything yet. If you get like this, I'll be even more infatuated with you," Xu Jiayi said while driving and looking at Shi Xinxin.
Shi Xinxin still looked displeased. "His words were too much. How could I not be angry? He actually treated you like that."
Seeing Shi Xinxin truly angry for him, Xu Jiayi was actually very happy, but he couldn't let Shi Xinxin stay angry.
"You've broken up now and know he's a scumbag. Why get angry about these things? He's just someone who won't spare your feelings with his words," Xu Jiayi said calmly.
Shi Xinxin took a deep breath. "As for me, Shi Xinxin, you can insult me, but you can't badmouth my friends. You have a good temper, I don't."
"Then what do you want? With your bad temper, what else do you want? Are you going to rush over and beat him up? Can you even beat him?" Xu Jiayi asked Shi Xinxin with a serious expression.
Shi Xinxin was rendered speechless by Xu Jiayi's question. She really didn't know what to say, and just stared blankly at the road ahead.
Seeing Shi Xinxin like this, she finally calmed down. Xu Jiayi looked at Shi Xinxin's face and gradually softened. "Actually, why don't you think about why he would be at that place?"
As soon as these words left his mouth, Xu Jiayi regretted them a little. As a love rival, he had said something that might make Shi Xinxin reconsider Sheng Chenjin. Sometimes, Xu Jiayi felt he deserved to die, and that it was his own fault for Shi Xinxin not accepting him, that he was too stupid.
But Shi Xinxin was also headstrong. She hadn't thought about it, nor had she ever considered why Sheng Chenjin would be at that place.
Shi Xinxin casually said, "He just wanted to see my pathetic state. He wanted to see how miserable I was after the breakup."
Xu Jiayi found Shi Xinxin's words somewhat speechless. After all, who would be so bored as to want to see how pathetic their ex-girlfriend was after a breakup? What kind of strange, malicious pleasure was driving that?
But since Shi Xinxin thought that way, Xu Jiayi didn't want his love rival to gain an advantage again, so he remained silent, allowing Shi Xinxin to continue resenting Sheng Chenjin's actions in her heart.
When Shi Xinxin returned to the magazine office, she was still cursing Sheng Chenjin as she walked in. Wen Xiaoxiao saw Shi Xinxin muttering to herself and asked, "Shi Xinxin, what's wrong with you? Are you possessed? You're mumbling non-stop, what are you saying?"
Just as Shi Xinxin looked up to speak, the director suddenly passed by. "Shi Xinxin, come to my office."
The director rarely called Shi Xinxin. This time, he suddenly called her. Shi Xinxin felt a little scared, worried that she had done something wrong and was being called to the office for a scolding.
So, Shi Xinxin looked at Wen Xiaoxiao. Wen Xiaoxiao also looked extremely surprised and bewildered, having no idea what had happened.
When she arrived at the director's office, Shi Xinxin was still trembling. After all, she had made a small mistake at work a few days ago due to her breakup. Shi Xinxin thought, was the director here to settle accounts?
The director sat at his desk and looked at Shi Xinxin. His originally stern face softened considerably in an instant.
But Shi Xinxin still didn't dare to speak casually. "Director, may I know what you need me for?"
As if suddenly remembering something, the director's smile deepened. This kind of director made Shi Xinxin's skin crawl.
"What's going on, Director?" Shi Xinxin became even more frightened.
