Free Web NovelChapter 2116: Chapter 2116: Tear-Up in the Restroom (2)
There were four women in total, two of them already hurt. Aside from Luo Huan, who was still staring blankly at Jiaojiao, the other one didn’t dare move, but she was still yelling, "Do you know who we are?! Are you tired of living?!"
"I don’t care who you are, but if I hear one more filthy word out of your dog mouths, I’ll make sure you walk in upright and get carried out flat." Ruan Jiaojiao said coldly. After she finished, she turned and walked to the restroom door, then said to a passing waiter, "Could you please call your manager over?"
Ruan Jiaojiao had eaten at this restaurant many times, so of course the waiters recognized her. Hearing her, they didn’t even dare glance into the restroom, just nodded in a fluster and hurried off to get someone.
Inside the restroom, at this moment, Luo Huan finally recognized Ruan Jiaojiao. She stared, her gaze complicated as she looked at her. "You’re Jiaojiao?"
Ruan Jiaojiao folded her arms and leaned against the restroom door, narrowing her eyes and giving her a cursory once-over. She had zero goodwill toward a woman who let her friends gossip all sorts of crap about her big brother. Disgust was written all over her face as she looked at her. "Ma’am, who even are you? Don’t call me so intimately, I don’t know you."
Hearing that vaguely familiar "ma’am," Luo Huan felt a jumble of emotions in her chest.
The first time she saw Ruan Jiaojiao was three years ago, in Ruan Hao’s office. Back then she was still the lobby manager at the Ruan Family’s hotel. Just to get close to him, she’d tossed aside her own family business, come back from studying abroad, and gone straight to work at the Ruan Family hotel as a lowly lobby manager.
When she first came, she was full of confidence, thinking that with her looks, background, and education, landing Ruan Hao was only a matter of time. But she hadn’t expected that after a few months, not only did she fail to get him, he even later found an excuse to fire her.
And more importantly, in Ruan Jiaojiao’s presence, she saw a completely different Ruan Hao—such tenderness and pampering that came from the depths of his heart. It made her intensely jealous, and it only deepened her obsession. Even after being fired, she couldn’t bear to give him up, and once she started chasing, three years went by just like that.
These three years, she had taken over her own family’s business. Her family was in the restaurant trade as well. To make that man spare her one more glance, she went against him at any cost, even if it meant doing money-losing deals.
She had no other agenda; she just wanted him to see her.
But Ruan Hao was always lukewarm toward her. Even when she openly stole his business, he never once gave her an extra look. She had thought maybe that was just how he was—that Ruan Jiaojiao was his family, his kid sister, so she alone was treated differently.
But... she hadn’t expected that just when she was about to compromise, thinking that if she couldn’t have him, then no one could, another woman would appear.
That woman got his smile. A real smile.
She was crazily jealous, so jealous she completely lost her reason!
Thinking of this, the look Luo Huan gave Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t help but grow malicious. She said, "Ruan Jiaojiao, what are you so smug about? You think you’re still the only special one? Let me tell you, you’re not! Your precious big brother will have a home, a wife, and kids in the future. You’re not worth shit then!"
What was that supposed to mean?
Ruan Jiaojiao looked at her, puzzled.
She tried hard to place her, but she was sure she did not know this woman.
While Ruan Jiaojiao was thinking, the sound of footsteps came from outside. She looked over at the noise, and the next second she fell into a familiar embrace.
