Chapter 15 Sarcasm


    I could feel Kun Ouyang and Qi Ouyang were staring at me with undisguised contempt, and I felt


    embarrassed under their questioning gaze, but there was nothing I could do but to stand there still.


    I knew it was not a good idea for me toe to this asion, but Vince insisted that I shoulde.


    Now, my presence was awkward, and my mood was totally ruined.


    Vince ced his hand on my shoulder and pressed down hard. He then put a sly smile on his face,


    looked at Jerry and said: “It seems like Mr Lu couldn’t even tell the beauty from the ugliness. I guess I


    always need to think twice before doing business with you.”

    Kun echoed what he said. “Yes! Vince is correct!”


    Jerry didn’t expect Vince would react so strongly and so fast. Not only did he lose face in front of


    Ouyang Family, but he lost a good opportunity in business. He exined in a hurry: “Me and Nance


    broke up peacefully. She is a wonderful woman.”


    “The fact that she is a wonderful woman further proves that you are a terrible man.” Vince looked at


    Jerry coldly. His presence was somanding that Jerry was soon intimated into silence.


    Then there was an awkward silence. Kun dispelled the silence by giving a heartyugh . He said to


    Vince: “Vince,e to my study, we need to talk about that piece ofnd on the east side of the city.”


    “Fine.” Vince said. He then leaned towards me and whispered: “Find a quiet ce and eat something.


    I’ll be back soon.”


    I nodded. He released my hand and followed Kun.


    I wanted to go to a corner, but Qi stopped me when she saw Vince was gone. She said: “Miss Mo, I


    want to talk with you.”


    I nodded. I knew what she wanted to talk with me. Her eyes betrayed her thoughtspletely. She


    loves Vince. Vince is handsome and rich and powerful, and that’s why many women in that party


    wanted to get close to him. I could almost feel their envious stares upon me.


    Qi walked to me with her chin tipped . She stood next to me, sniffed my body and said: “The perfume


    you are wearing is Chanel. I guess Vince bought it for you.”


    “Yes.” I answered frankly. There was no need to lie about it.


    “So, you are a model? What kind of pictures do you take?” She seemed to be very interested in me. I


    knew she was only trying to figure out why did I get divorced, and how did I get to know Vince. Women


    are all alike.


    “Just some print ads, and sometimes I also endorse some products.” I said inly. I looked away, and I


    really wanted to go for a walk outside. Ouyang Family’s extravagance was making me very nervous.


    “I see.” Qi said quietly. Then sheughed slightly and said: “Vince loves hanging out with models, but


    he usually gets tired with a model within half a year.”


    I knew she would say something like this to belittle me. So when I heard it, I gave no response. Not a


    tinge of sadness, nor anger, was to be noticed from my expression, which disturbed Qi a lot. She


    arched her brow in disbelief and disgust.


    “Miss Ouyang, I want to go for a walk. Do you want toe with me?” I stopped ying the passive


    role in this conversation and asked in a soft voice.


    Qi shook her head and said: “No. I need to see what are my dad and Vince talking about. I don’t know


    whether my dad has brought up my marriage or not.”


    Then she nced at me proudly and walked upstairs.


    I stood there motionlessly, because what Qi just said shocked me. A waiter walked by with a tray, and I


    grabbed a ss of wine and gulped it down. The wine was so bitter and I coughed ufortably.


    People looked at me in a judgemental way, and I put the ss down and walked into the yard rapidly.


    It was autumn and it was very cold at night. My gown was pressed tightly against my body because the


    wind was blowing. I put my arms around myself and made myself smaller to keep warm. The


    temperature outside was so much lower than the inside.


    But I’d rather put up with the coldness than putting up with their fake smiles.


    Some timeter, someone put a jacket on me, and I felt so much warmer. I looked around, and


    surprisingly, it was him.
