From Villain to Cherished: Counter My Role by Pampering Kids
Chapter 118: Don’t you like this?
CHAPTER 118: CHAPTER 118: DON’T YOU LIKE THIS?
Su Xingwan noticed Mr. Lu leaving.
She wondered if the things she said earlier had made him uncomfortable.
The three little ones needed to use the restroom.
So Su Xingwan took them over there.
Tang Muya was worried she might not be able to handle it, so she followed along.
On the way, Su Xingwan inexplicably felt two lines of sight looking over.
She looked up and saw a young man and woman snuggled together, their eyes fixed on her.
Su Xingwan was taken aback.
Did they know her or something?
"Auntie, should we go in?"
The three little ones had already reached the restroom door.
Su Xingwan said, "Mm, I’ll wait outside with your Aunt Tang."
After the three little ones went in, Su Xingwan stood at the entrance to guard them.
Suddenly, unfamiliar voices of a man and woman came from the next stall.
"I saw Su Xingwan today, did you see her?"
"I saw her, she didn’t bother to approach you this time, acting like she doesn’t know you."
"Why should we care so much?"
"I’m curious, that’s so unlike her. She used to be glued to you like a sticker, always hanging on. I guess she’s moved on to a better catch and doesn’t appreciate you anymore, right?"
"I don’t care if she appreciates me or not. I only care about you, isn’t that enough?"
"That’s more like it." The woman let out a coquettish laugh.
After a few seconds, their conversation suddenly continued.
"But this time, even though Su Xingwan pretended not to know us, she seems like she’s a different person."
"What’s different? I only noticed she got prettier."
"You don’t seriously have a crush on her, do you?"
"No, Yingying, you know I only love you. When she chased me around back then, I was so annoyed that I left this city for a while."
"So Su Xingwan must be pretending, she even acted like she didn’t know us just now."
Su Xingwan listened intently to the conversation between the young man and woman.
???
These must be people the original person had provoked, huh?
At this point, the young man and woman came out of the restroom.
Their eyes met Su Xingwan’s probing gaze.
They froze for a while, seemingly embarrassed because someone had overheard their private conversation.
After they awkwardly walked away, an unfamiliar woman entered with her child, muttering, "What’s wrong with those two? A man coming into the women’s restroom."
Tang Muya suddenly spoke: "Su Xingwan, you don’t remember those two?"
She noticed the confused look on her face.
Su Xingwan shook her head, "I don’t remember."
Tang Muya was actually quite puzzled by her sudden change but didn’t think too deeply about it.
"Oh, it’s no big deal. You used to like Mu Yingying’s boyfriend quite a bit, always running after him every day."
Su Xingwan was shocked.
About to say "original person," then corrected herself: "I pursued a man with a girlfriend?"
"Not exactly. Back then, he wasn’t with her yet. You and Mu Yingying always clashed, often arguing over that man, but he always sided with Mu Yingying."
Anyone with eyes could see Mu Yingying and Le Tan were a couple, but the previous Su Xingwan insisted on inserting herself.
This made everyone look down on her, thinking she was trying to climb the social ladder.
Yet, Su Xingwan’s interference inadvertently brought them together.
"...Is that so?"
Su Xingwan was rather speechless.
No wonder those two looked at her with such peculiar expressions.
Su Xingwan: "What happened afterward?"
"Later, Le Tan had a movie to film in another city, so he didn’t come back for a while, only returned a few days ago."
Su Xingwan: So this is what happened in the original person’s life.
Tang Muya looked at her: "You really seem to have forgotten everything, did you hit your head before?"
Su Xingwan smiled guiltily: "I do tend to forget things from the past."
Tang Muya laughed and said: "It’s okay. The person I recognize is the current you, and the friend I make is also the current you."
If it were still the old Su Xingwan, they might still be distant and without interaction.
After the banquet, Tang Muya offered to drive them back.
Ye Yixing came over and said: "No need, my cousin and I will take them back."
Tang Muya glanced at him.
Earlier, Su Xingwan had explained that Mr. Lu and Young Master Ye were family to the three little ones, hence their familiarity.
"Alright then, I won’t stop the three little ones from bonding with their uncle."
In the parking lot, Su Xingwan saw him sitting alone in the car, head lowered, lost in thought.
Until the car door opened and the three little ones cheerfully greeted him.
"Uncle!"
Lu Yun then reacted, lifting his gaze towards Su Xingwan, saying: "Get in."
The three little ones clambered up, sitting with their uncle.
Su Xingwan got in the car, intending to apologize.
But she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
So she pulled out her phone to send him a WeChat message.
Lu Yun’s phone chimed.
He opened it.
[Mr. Lu, sorry about the incident at the banquet today.]
Lu Yun typed a response.
[No worries.]
Su Xingwan’s phone chimed.
She opened it and saw those two words.
She looked up, cautiously observing Mr. Lu’s expression but couldn’t discern anything.
She continued sending messages.
[Mr. Lu, let’s have a meal next time to make up for my apology.]
The other party quickly responded.
[Okay.]
Su Xingwan: ?
Quite a prompt agreement.
She slightly regretted mentioning the meal.
Mr. Lu didn’t seem angry.
Her phone chimed again as the other party sent another message.
[Where are we going to eat?]
Su Xingwan initially thought of saying "you decide," then remembered the Shuiyun Pavilion matter.
The phone chimed again.
She opened it.
[Shuiyun Pavilion?]
She was about to refuse when the next second the other party sent another message.
[You can use that Black Gold Card.]
Su Xingwan could only reply with "Okay."
At the same time, a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes.
Why does Mr. Lu seem a bit strange?
He didn’t appear as cold as she imagined.
Mr. Lu didn’t stop messaging. He sent another message.
Both their phones chimed back and forth.
Ye Yixing looked at their little interaction, his suspicious gaze turning towards them.
"Su Xingwan, cousin, are you two chatting in private?"
Su Xingwan reacted to this, a faint blush appearing on her face.
"Mm, just talking to Mr. Lu about something."
Ye Yixing: "What’s so important that can’t be said in front of everyone, but must be texted privately?"
"It makes it seem like you’re secretly doing something shady behind my back."
Su Xingwan was taken aback.
The three little ones stared at her with big, curious eyes.
Su Xingwan’s face felt inexplicably warm.
However, Lu Yun’s messages kept coming.
She could only look down to see.
Then she directly said: "Mr. Lu, let’s talk like this."
[Don’t you like it this way?]
Her phone chimed again, and she opened it to see his words.
Her face felt even warmer.
