Chapter 997: Mary Sue

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ou Ximing looked at Shen Fanxing in surprise. In the end, he gave a bitter smile and shook his head.

After a long while, he said softly,

“I once promised someone that I would make her the most beautiful and unique bride in the world on the day she married me when she was twenty-six years old. In the end…”

Ou Ximing didn’t continue, his face full of mockery.

Shen Fanxing smirked and continued, “The bride is getting married, but the groom isn’t you?”

Ou Ximing smiled bitterly. “You’re right. Isn’t it melodramatic?”

“…”

Shen Fanxing didn’t comment. Her melodramatic life was mainly because of Mary Sue.

“Liang Chenyi is my cousin. My parents left early and I relied on the savings left behind by my parents to go to university. I met Zhao Zimo. We’ve been dating for four years in university and we’re already engaged to each other. Because I know her dream, I chose the path of a stylist. Then, I turned an ordinary-looking girl who had a low self-esteem into a campus belle. During this period, I helped her participate in Miss Hong Kong and achieved good results. I accompanied her to work… I thought we would continue walking down the same path…”

“But once a woman becomes beautiful…”

She paused. Shen Fanxing could guess that his next words would be biased, but she understood what he meant.

“Liang Chenyi later became my master’s disciple. In the end, he was heartless and forced Master’s studio into a corner. I didn’t know why he did that at first. It was only later that I found out that it was because…”

Zhao Zimo.

Shen Fanxing sneered inwardly.

“Liang Chenyi’s family background is better than mine and he has been secretly suppressing me. Look at his reputation and career. As for me…”

Lan Qianqian had already stood at the side. When she heard Ou Ximing’s words, her face was filled with obvious reluctance and unknown emotions.

“And you will only be better than him.”

Shen Fanxing smiled at him and pulled Lan Xianxian into the fitting room.

Ou Ximing’s mind was filled with Shen Fanxing’s words and her confident smile.

For some reason, the knot that had accumulated in her heart for many years suddenly loosened.

That’s right!

How could Ou Ximing be worse than Liang Chenyi?

Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, he had to be confident and give his all.

“… Ximing?”

Just as he took a deep breath and decided to focus on the matter at hand and re-establish his ambitions, a puzzled but familiar voice sounded beside him.

She turned around and saw Zhao Zimo.

Looking at the exquisite woman in front of him, Ou Ximing’s expression changed.

“You…”

He started to speak, then stopped when he realized where he was.

Zhao Zimo didn’t expect it to be Ou Ximing, who should be in Hong Kong now. She only looked like him, so she called out tentatively. She didn’t expect it to be him.

Then, she felt awkward.

After a long while, she brushed her hair and asked,

“Why are you here?”

“Just strolling around.”

“Oh…”

Zhao Zimo’s face was filled with discomfort. Ou Ximing saw her reaction and felt that she would feel guilty towards him. He asked,

“Zi Mo, are you serious about marrying Liang Chenyi? Or is he forcing you?”

The awkwardness on Zhao Zimo’s face intensified and she didn’t know what to say.

She remained silent. Ou Ximing guessed, “He forced you, right?”

He took two steps towards her involuntarily.

“Momo!”

With a loud shout, Zhao Zimo was pulled to the side.

“Mom…”

Ou Ximing looked at the person and called out, “Auntie.”

When Mother Zhao saw that it was Ou Ximing, her expression froze for a moment before it turned into disdain.

“Why are you here?”

Mother Zhao’s unconcealed attitude made Ou Ximing’s heart turn cold.

“I just happened to ask her a question.”

Zhao Zimo bit her lips and didn’t look at him.

She naturally knew about Ou Ximing and Zhao Zimo’s marriage. She also knew that Zimo felt guilty towards Ou Ximing.

Seeing how silent Zi Mo was, her heart ached.

“Ou Ximing, there are always ups and downs when a young man is in a relationship. As a girl, Zimo can let go easily. Why are you holding on to her so tightly? Don’t forget that your engagement has been annulled.”

Ou Ximing clenched his fists and stared at Zhao Zimo.

“Did he force you?”

“Ou Ximing!” Seeing that he was unmoved, Mrs. Zhao couldn’t help but scold him angrily. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she lowered her voice.

“You and Momo have long become history. I advise you not to overdo it. Momo’s status is different now and she’s about to get married. Don’t cause any trouble for her. If you really like Momo, you should give her your blessings. Besides, what can you give her now? If the two of you are really together, do you still want Momo to support you?”

Ou Ximing’s eyes flickered as he stared at Zhao Zimo silently. It was as if he would never stop until Zhao Zimo gave him an answer.

Zhao Zimo bit her lips tightly and frowned slightly.

Taking a deep breath, she looked up at him.

“Ou Ximing, Chenyi didn’t force me. I chose him.”

Zhao Zimo stood there quietly with a calm expression. Her slender figure was wearing the latest Chanel dress. Her brown hair draped over her shoulders and the bright lights in the shop shone on her skin.

However, Ou Ximing was not in the mood to admire her beauty. He only felt a chill in his heart.

“All these years, Chenyi has always been by my side. Without him, I wouldn’t be who I am now. His family background is good and his parents treat me well. He’s even an internationally renowned stylist now. Choose him and make the right choice.”

“Ximing, ask yourself, what can you bring me compared to him?”

Zhao Zimo took a deep breath and a faint smile appeared on her face. It was as if these words had been buried in her heart for too long. Now, she could finally vent them.

“With my current reputation, how many people have their eyes on me and are waiting to see me make a fool of myself? I’ve always felt that we wouldn’t have anything to do with each other after breaking off our engagement, but who knew that you would… Let it be, Ximing, let me go! You and I, be it now or in the future, will not be in the same world.”
