“But you didn’t misunderstand me…” This is what I want to tell you about breaking up.
Wu Mangmang’s grand performance hadn’t even begun when Lu Sui cut her off, “Didn’t you say that if you fell for someone else, you’d tell me in person, and only start another relationship after we broke up?”
What do you call lifting a rock only to drop it on your own foot?
Wu Mangmang was instantly speechless.
With just one word—”misunderstand”—Lu Sui had flipped her from the role of victim to perpetrator.
The world really had no black and white; it all depended on what one’s mouth said.
“Whether you misunderstood or not, you know best!” Wu Mangmang wasn’t the type to back down—even without reason, she’d argue for three points.
“So I clearly know that you misunderstood,” Lu Sui said.
Wu Mangmang turned her head to look at Lu Sui, who was raising his hand to rub his brow. Though it was a bit dark, his features were still distinct. How dare this person put on that helpless expression as if she were being unreasonable?
“I didn’t misunderstand! When people in a relationship don’t contact each other for ten days, isn’t that a cold breakup?” Wu Mangmang almost screamed.
Lu Sui rubbed his ears. “Why wouldn’t ten days of no contact mean the other person had an accident?”
An accident, my ass! “But not only did you not have an accident, you turned around and attended a banquet with a gorgeous woman in your arms. Am I wrong?” Wu Mangmang was so angry steam was coming out of her head.
“Since you’re so angry, why didn’t you call or ask me in person at the time?” Lu Sui deflected with practiced ease.
“I wouldn’t go looking for trouble. This lady doesn’t stoop so low,” Wu Mangmang pursed her lips and crossed her arms over her chest.
“That’s your inferiority complex acting up,” Lu Sui said.
Now that lit the fuse! “What inferiority complex? I’m beautiful and have a great figure, big chest and perky butt, knowledgeable and cultured, have a job and good friends, have a car and a house, have parents—what do I have to feel inferior about?”
“I advise you not to be so narcissistic.” Wu Mangmang spoke so passionately she almost sprayed saliva.
“Then it’s excessive self-esteem, thinking too highly of yourself, always expecting others to accommodate you, never thinking to actively care about others. Even if the other person had no news for ten days, even if the other person died outside, you’d still be playing games happily, wouldn’t you?” Lu Sui’s tone was completely emotionless, but spoken in his nonchalant manner, it was particularly cutting.
Wu Mangmang felt so useless—whenever she argued, she wanted to cry. Now her whole face was wet.
“I won’t argue with you. None of this matters now. Let’s part on good terms,” Wu Mangmang tried to calm her voice like Lu Sui.
“You left without saying a word, cheated on me and made me wear such a big green hat, and now you want to part on good terms?” Lu Sui’s tone rose slightly.
So he came to settle scores?! Wu Mangmang was grinding her teeth in anger, jumping up and momentarily forgetting she was in the car. Her head hit the roof with a “thud.”
Wu Mangmang angrily kicked the front seat, feeling like even the car was bullying her.
Lu Sui reached up to rub Wu Mangmang’s head, but she slapped his hand away with a “smack.” “Don’t touch me, stop being fake.”
Since they’d already torn off the mask, Wu Mangmang had no reservations. Pointing at Lu Sui’s nose, she scolded: “Stop pulling this act on me, Lu Sui. Don’t think I don’t understand you men’s dirty thoughts.”
“You don’t call me or contact me, then turn around and blame me for not calling you. But we both know very well that something unpleasant happened that night, and the next day you suddenly had to go on a business trip for a week, with no prior warning. You were basically…”
“You must have something you haven’t figured out. Business trips are such a good excuse—you can advance or retreat. If you figure it out, you can continue pretending nothing happened and keep me as a pet. If you don’t figure it out, I’d be the second Wang Yuan, right?”
“You wish! I’m not Wang Yuan. I don’t care what the reason for breaking up is. Let’s be straightforward about it. If you’re still a man, don’t keep harping on my mistakes. Even if you want to blame someone, blame me entirely—it has nothing to do with Ms. Liu and the others. Kill me or cut me up as you please. So what if I cheated? So what if I fell for someone else? At worst, I’ll be a good hero again in eighteen years.”
Wu Mangmang said all this in one breath, feeling both physically and mentally refreshed. Her hands and feet were no longer cold, and she even stopped crying. But this wasn’t over yet.
She was getting more excited the more she talked, more pleased the more she performed, with the spirit of a gangster boss lady possessing her—the feeling was incredible.
On TV, they always acted like this. At the end, the boss lady had to calmly deliver a few harsh words—that was true style.
Wu Mangmang bent down and stood up, putting one foot on the seat, striking the classic tough woman pose with one hand on her knee and the other extended to gently pat Lu Sui’s face.
Her acting addiction had kicked in—she dared to touch even a tiger’s rear.
Since it was a dead end anyway, she said: “Mommy’s not playing with you anymore, good boy. Go find your godmother.” Wu Mangmang patted Lu Sui’s face again.
Having delivered this advantageous parting shot, Wu Mangmang smoothly turned around and opened the door, wanting to end this movie with a cool back view for Lu Sui.
But as the old saying goes, you can’t touch a tiger’s rear.
Lu Sui’s comeback was a matter of seconds.
Wu Mangmang felt her arm being yanked hard from behind, and she fell back onto Lu Sui’s lap. She reached out to push him, her feet also busy, but the space was too cramped to attack his lower body.
But a woman’s beautiful nails can sometimes be beautiful weapons too.
Wu Mangmang scratched Lu Sui’s neck viciously, but immediately after, with a push and pull, Lu Sui counterattacked and pressed her down on the seat.
She thought to herself that Lu Sui must have learned some martial arts.
Come to think of it, someone like him who could be kidnapped at any moment, a golden target, must have learned some fighting skills from childhood.
In the darkness, Wu Mangmang’s face was bitten hard. “Want to be my mom? Have you breastfed me?”
Though he was talking, both of them kept fighting with their hands.
The environment was cramped, and her strength couldn’t match Lu Sui’s. Wu Mangmang was defeated in just a few moves, screaming: “Cold, your hands are so cold! Take them away!”
She had forgotten to put on underwear when getting dressed after getting up. The roasted suckling pig was squeezed into a roasted pancake. Wu Mangmang continued screaming: “Get away, you hooligan, you rapist…”
The rest of her words were directly blocked by Lu Sui, and not with his mouth—it felt like a piece of cloth. Wu Mangmang could only make “mmm mmm” sounds and couldn’t shout anymore.
Her hands were tied behind her back with Lu Sui’s tie. Wu Mangmang tried to kick Lu Sui with her legs, but he directly knelt between her legs.
“You think cheating is justified? You’re proud of having an affair?” Lu Sui’s words came with his breath directly hitting Wu Mangmang’s face.
Not only was her body being treated roughly, Wu Mangmang felt her face hurt, her ears hurt, her nose hurt, her mouth corners hurt, her neck hurt, her collarbone hurt—Lu Sui had definitely bitten all the way down.
