Chapter 496: Chapter 496: Heart-to-Heart Talk

Wang Chenning had actually just left like that. The two women stared at each other, wide-eyed and speechless.

"He’s gone too far!" Yang Xiaofei felt like she was going crazy, running her hands through her hair and messing it up.

She was truly furious today, and she felt humiliated.

She wanted to grab Wang Chenning and beat him to a pulp, or even tear him limb from limb.

"Aren’t we just ridiculous?" Zhao Xiao’an said with a wry smile, looking at Yang Xiaofei, who had completely lost her composure. "I thought you’d be more rational than me. I never expected you’d fall into his hands too!"

"What do you mean?" Yang Xiaofei glared at Zhao Xiao’an. "Are you here to laugh at me?"

Zhao Xiao’an sighed and asked, "Other than shirking responsibility, what other flaws does he have?"

"I can’t see a single good thing about him!" Yang Xiaofei angrily threw a nearby cushion some distance. "He’s an arrogant, self-centered scumbag who doesn’t give a damn about anyone else! I’m going to get my revenge on him, just to vent this hatred!"

"What did he do to you?" Zhao Xiao’an frowned at Yang Xiaofei. "You wanted to go through with the engagement, and he refused?"

Hearing Zhao Xiao’an’s question and feeling her piercing gaze, Yang Xiaofei finally calmed down. "Not exactly! He tricked me, and now he doesn’t want to take responsibility."

"So what do you want to do? Force him to marry you?" A mocking look appeared on Zhao Xiao’an’s face. "You think he’d agree to marry you?"

"Forget it, let’s not talk about this!" Yang Xiaofei rubbed her face vigorously, then asked Zhao Xiao’an, "How do you see your own situation with him?"

Since it was all out in the open, and they had both admitted their shameful relationships with Wang Chenning to each other’s faces, Yang Xiaofei felt it would be better to just get everything out on the table.

"Wang Chenning is definitely ambitious!" Zhao Xiao’an said in a low voice. "I once had a detailed talk about him with my grandfather. Grandpa really admires his audacity. Hearing him speak so directly today, his meaning is obvious. He wants to pull us into the same trench with him!"

"And what does that mean?" Yang Xiaofei stared at Zhao Xiao’an coldly. "You’ve agreed to join him in his schemes?"

Zhao Xiao’an didn’t answer directly. Instead, she asked Yang Xiaofei, "Do you think you’ll ever meet anyone more exceptional than him in your lifetime?"

Yang Xiaofei was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head. "Probably not!"

Zhao Xiao’an asked again, "Do you think you’ll ever meet anyone harder to handle?"

After a moment of thought, Yang Xiaofei shook her head again.

"I suspected he was intimate with women other than me, but somehow, I’m not as repulsed by the idea as I should be. It’s something I can hardly believe about myself!" A wry smile returned to Zhao Xiao’an’s face. "The moment I see him, I stop thinking about anything else. I just want to be happy with him. It’s like he has this magic about him. The moment I see his smile, I just get lost in it!"

A scornful look crossed Yang Xiaofei’s face. "So from the very beginning, you wanted to keep him in your grasp, showing him off all over your social media?"

Zhao Xiao’an ignored Yang Xiaofei’s jab and asked in return, "Do you think he loves us? Or, who does he love the most?"

"I think he doesn’t love anyone but himself." Yang Xiaofei also sighed, looking dejected. "The more he acts like this, the more we can’t accept it, right? We’ve always been so proud, thinking all men should fall at our feet. Then we meet someone like him—outstanding in every way, just as proud as we are, who orders us around and doesn’t seem to care—and we’re filled with this unwillingness to lose. So we end up diving in headfirst."

Zhao Xiao’an watched Yang Xiaofei quietly, then couldn’t resist asking, "Don’t you think... he’s a bit of a monster when it comes to his stamina?"

Yang Xiaofei knew exactly what Zhao Xiao’an was asking. Her face flushed red, but she refused to answer.

Zhao Xiao’an pressed on, "I feel like even with the two of us combined, we’re no match for him. Don’t you agree?"

Yang Xiaofei gave Zhao Xiao’an a strange look, still unwilling to answer.

"That’s just what he wants—a woman on each arm. He’ll never be satisfied!" Zhao Xiao’an suddenly grew angry, jumping to her feet before slumping back down dejectedly. "But... aside from not being faithful, he’s perfect. So perfect you can’t find any other fault with him."

"Isn’t that the textbook definition of a scumbag?" Yang Xiaofei looked at Zhao Xiao’an with a wry smile. "Perfect in every way, except for the part where he doesn’t love you!"

"So what do we do?" Zhao Xiao’an asked Yang Xiaofei. "Just let him run wild like this?"

Yang Xiaofei stared at Zhao Xiao’an in astonishment. "Are you suggesting we form an alliance to drive the other women away from him?"

"Can you really tolerate other women sharing our man?" Zhao Xiao’an looked back at Yang Xiaofei, equally surprised. "Don’t tell me you actually want to leave him, not after you’ve already gotten this involved?"

Yang Xiaofei stared at Zhao Xiao’an, speechless, not knowing how to respond.

"Since we’ve already invested so much, we have to get some kind of return, no matter what!" Zhao Xiao’an smiled. "If he can give us everything except faithfulness, then why not just enjoy our youth with him by our side? At least when we’re with him, we feel happy!"

"Sorry, but I can’t agree with that!" Yang Xiaofei scoffed. "I’m going to bed. You can go find Wang Chenning yourself!"

"Really?" Zhao Xiao’an looked at Yang Xiaofei in surprise. "I thought you’d want to stay up all night with me, figuring out how to deal with this scumbag. But if you’re not interested, then I’ll be going!"
