My Evil Genius Wife

Chapter 420: Don’t play with water!!

Cheng Zixing was flustered to see Su Xinyue’s reaction and before she could understand what was happening, Su Xinyue picked up the glass of cold water and threw it at her. She reflexively shielded her body with her hands and closed her eyes, waiting to be splashed by the water.

She was expecting to be hit by the cold water in front of everyone and was already regretting her decision when she decided to believe in Su Xinyue’s words and trusted her extremely biased opinion about Xu Nuan. If she had not done that, she might be close to Xu Nuan just like the other family members and they would be living like a peaceful and happy family.

‘ I deserve it. That’s right. This is what karma is.’ She reminded herself and was ready to take the hit.

However, the embarrassing situation that Cheng Zixing was expecting never happened. Even after a few seconds later, she was sitting there dry and proper.

” This....ARE YOU CRAZY??” Rather than being soaked by the cold water, she heard Su Xinyue’s high-pitched shriek,

Cheng Zixing was confused and curious about the situation at the same time. It was Su Xinyue who threw water at her to embarrass her, so why is she shouting like a crazy woman?

When she opened her eyes, what came into her sight was not the proud Su Xinyue but the person she was expecting the least was standing in front of her who had shielded her from getting hit by the water.

.....

” Xu....Xu Nuan?” Cheng Zixing was confused and feeling emotional at the same time. She has always taunted her and looked down on her in front of everyone whenever they met yet she was the one, who is protecting her in this embarrassing situation.

Upon hearing her name, Xu Nuan turned around and smiled at Cheng Zixing and asked, ” Are you alright? Did you get hit by the water?”

” Oh? Ah....Yes. No...” She took a moment to clear her thoughts and said, ” I mean...I am fine and the water, it didn’t even touch me.” Cheng Zixing was flustered by her sudden question and replied embarrassedly.

Her cheeks turned crimson in embarrassment as she didn’t know how to face Xu Nuan after saying all those mean things to her in the past yet she is the one who is coming out to help her.

How embarrassing!

While Cheng Zixing and Xu Nuan were having an emotional moment, Su Xinyue’s eyes widened in shock and her face turned red in anger and humiliation.

” WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING? HOW DARE YOU TOUCH MY BAG WITH YOUR FILTHY HANDS?” She shouted at Xu Nuan and snatched the bag from Xu Nuan’s hand.

Xu Nuan shielded Cheng Zixing from getting hit by the water, however, she didn’t use her body to do that. Rather, she used the bag that Su Xinyue treasured the most and let it hit by the cold water.

Things escalated so quickly that Su Xinyue didn’t even realize it when Xu Nuan approached their table and picked up her bag to protect Cheng Zixing from the splash of cold water.

Su Xinyue’s eyes welled up with tears when she held her precious bag in her trembling hands that were now soaked in water and was looking like a pitiful kitten drenched in rainwater.

The bag was not just any regular bag, instead, it was from the latest collection of the high-end brand. After so much pleading, she finally got her husband to let her buy this extremely expensive, branded leather bag.

It’s not been a week since she brought this precious baby of hers and it has already gotten into this condition.

She didn’t even get to show off this bag to her friends and was wondering when to hold a tea party just to show off her handbag in front of them. However, this action of Xu Nuan has poured icy-cold water into all of her plans.

Xu Nuan cleared her throat to see Su Xinyue holding her drenched handbag and casually picked up a few tissue papers from the table to wipe her hands and arms. Along with the bag, some water was also splashed on her hands and arms.

Seeing Xu Nuan wiping her hands, Cheng Zixing helped her to get a few more tissues to wipe her dripping wet sleeves.

Xu Nuan smiled at her and didn’t reject her help. After wiping her hands and arms, Xu Nuan looked at Su Xinyue and said casually, “Mrs. Su, that’s why you shouldn’t play with water like this in a public space.”

” Aiya, Your bag!! It seems to get hit by the water quite hard. Isn’t it?” Xu Nuan faked the concern towards the bag that Su Xinyue was holding but inwardly, she couldn’t help but feel proud about her swift reflexes.

She was planning to eavesdrop on their conversation like a stranger and leave after the meeting. However, things escalated quickly and Su Xinyue, who was talking to Cheng Zixing nicely a while ago, suddenly became a shouting witch.

Su Xinyue gritted her teeth and glared at Xu Nuan with killing intent in her eyes, ” You....Don’t forget that I am your Mother-in-law. Is that how you treat your elders? Did your family not teach you anything?”

” We haven’t gotten married yet.” Xu Nuan mumbled in a low voice which made Su Xinyue even angrier at her rude words.

” Hah! What family? A girl who was brought up in the orphanage, how will she know anything about the word family.” She mocked her, causing everyone in the cafe to gasp at Su Xinyue’s sharp words towards Xu Nuan.

” Mrs. Su, Please mind your words. You’re going overboard now.” Cheng Zixing stood up to support Xu Nuan but Su Xinyue snapped at her as well. ” You shut up!! How dare a lowly-bitch like you tell me to mind my words?”

” You were scheming this all along, right? You wanted to become a good mother-in-law in this bitch’s eyes so that she will listen to all of your nonsense and will take your side, didn’t you?”

” It was all your plan. The plan is to come into the good books of Han Zihao. Hah! What a scheming woman you are.” Su Xinyue mocked Cheng Zixing and seems to have lost the cool that she was trying to maintain all along.

Cheng Zixing’s face turned crimson in embarrassment upon hearing the cruel words of Su Xinyue and before she could say anything to protect her remaining dignity, she heard an indifferent deep voice from behind.

” A murderer shouldn’t point fingers at the other people for attempting a theft. It’s embarrassing.”
