Chapter 1077: Life Is a Circle

“Liu Ruxu… you, you’re so shameless! How can you… how can you do such disgraceful things?”

Xie Ru failed to flaunt and had to rebuke them on moral grounds.

In fact, he was jealous when he said that.

After all, these three women were all as good as his girlfriend.

Especially since Liu Ruxue and Liu Ruxu were sisters, two sisters! “Mind your own business and get lost! Or you’ll suffer once my husband arrives.”

Liu Ruxue cursed fiercely.

“Ha, a joke, young girl. Thirty years east, thirty years west. Do you still think I’m the same Xie Ru as before?”

Xie Ru scoffed. He was now a core member of Tianqing, enjoying the benefits of it, and he didn’t care about ordinary rich folks.

“My husband’s temper isn’t great.”

Liu Ruxu reminded him.

Xie Ru smiled calmly: “Coincidentally, my temper isn’t good either, and I’m curious about what kind of person your husband is.”

Damn it, I’ll make your husband beg me in no time. Let’s see if you still dare talk to me like that.

He was very confident in his background.

He wanted to humiliate Liu Ruxu’s husband right in front of her.

To let her know the man she chose couldn’t compare to him.

“What’s going on?”

Xu Shaochen walked out after the call and saw Xie Ru with his girlfriend from afar.

“Honey, this guy said he wants to know what kind of person you are.”

Liu Ruxue pointed at Xie Ru.

“Ha, today I…”

Xie Ru smiled confidently and turned around. The moment he saw Xu Shaochen, his smile froze, and his face turned pale.

All his thoughts came down to two words: Damn!

He never imagined.

Liu Ruxu’s man would be Xu Shaochen.

Life really is a circle, you never know where you’ll meet someone again.

Seeing Xu Shaochen, he felt inexplicably guilty.

After all, Tianqing was currently targeting Xu Shaochen.

They were like two rival forces.

He was like a small soldier running into the emperor of the opposing force while taking a break.

The feeling was indescribable.

“Today I… have something to do, I’ll leave first.”

Xie Ru finally finished his sentence, dragging his girlfriend to leave.

Seeing the flustered Xie Ru, Xu Shaochen waved.

Two bodyguards got up and blocked his path.

Xie Ru stopped, turned around with difficulty, his face calm but his heart panicked.

“Do you know me?”

Xu Shaochen looked at Xie Ru and asked.

“Not really.”

Xie Ru forced a friendly smile and shook his head mechanically.

“I don’t believe you. I can tell you’re quite familiar with me and… you seem afraid.”

Xu Shaochen smiled at him, putting an arm around his shoulder.

Xie Ru shivered: “I… I really don’t know you. I just saw you in the news, that’s all. Scared because I tried to show off but failed.”

His logic was fine.

But his expression was very problematic, and even his body shook when Xu Shaochen put his arm around him.

“Since you know me, show me some respect. How about a chat?”

Xu Shaochen asked with a grin.

“Um… it’s really not convenient.”

Xie Ru wanted to escape but couldn’t.

“No worries. If you feel bad, you can pay the bill later.”

Xu Shaochen said, kindly but forcefully seating him.

Xie Ru’s girlfriend had to sit down helplessly too.

“How should I address you?”

Xu Shaochen sat beside Lin Wanxue, looking at Xie Ru.

“Mr. Xu, just call me Xiao Xie.”

Xie Ru nodded and bowed, showing the utmost humility.

Liu Ruxu, Liu Ruxue, and Lin Wanxue couldn’t help but laugh.

After all, Xie Ru’s previous arrogance sharply contrasted with his current demeanor.

“Xiao Xie, why are your feet shaking?” Xu Shaochen asked, sensing something was off.

Because Xie Ru’s behavior was unnatural from the start.

Even being nervous upon seeing him wasn’t enough to cause such fear given their lack of history.

In sensitive times, Xu Shaochen paid attention to any oddities.

After all, there’s no harm in being vigilant. Any gain is welcomed.

“Mr. Xu doesn’t know, I had polio as a child, so my legs are a bit weak.”

Xie Ru lied with a straight face, but he felt like crying inside.

Why couldn’t he control his urge to show off?

Wasn’t it just asking for trouble?

Great, now he couldn’t leave even if he wanted to.

He was relieved Xu Shaochen didn’t know he was with Tianqing.

Otherwise, he’d be in deep trouble.

“Your polio is nonsense. During school, you pursued my sister so diligently. When did you have polio?”

Liu Ruxue exposed his lie mercilessly.

Xie Ru wanted to curse, Liu Ruxue was as annoying as when she was a kid.

He had tried to win Liu Ruxue over by praising her and buying her snacks.

But she ate the snacks and never said a word for him, a typical case of taking money but not delivering.

“Ring, ring, ring…”

Suddenly, his phone rang.

His expression changed instantly, almost reflexively wanting to hang up.

After all, he couldn’t guarantee who was calling. If it was someone from the organization, it would be awful.

But Xu Shaochen grabbed his hand first, smiling: “Whose call is it? Go ahead, since we’re all friends there’s nothing to hide.”

“Just a scam call, not worth answering, so annoying.”

Xie Ru said stiffly.

Xu Shaochen smiled wider: “Scam call? Great, I’m experienced with such callers. Put it on speaker, let me help.”

“No need, your status doesn’t suit such things.”

Xie Ru quickly refused, sweating profusely.

“Why be polite? It’s just lending a hand.”

With that, Xu Shaochen took the phone and answered, turning on the speaker.

In that instant, Xie Ru saw the caller ID, and one thought flashed in his mind.

It’s over.

Because the caller ID clearly read “Zhao Fu.”
