After Being Betrayed, I Married a Tycoon in a Flash-Chapter 163 - Ah It hurts
Chapter 163: Chapter 163 Ah! It hurts!
Chapter 163: Chapter 163 Ah! It hurts!
“Ah! It hurts so much!” Ye Xinyu cried out in pain.
The crowd then noticed that the ring was stuck on Ye Xinyu’s ring finger, obviously too small for her, by a considerable margin.
Ou Linlin tried to remove the ring with force and ended up getting it stuck.
“My God, that size was clearly unsuitable right from the start.”
“How did Ye Xinyu think it was from Gu Zuocheng?”
“Gu Zuocheng, knowing full well it wasn’t for him, still pretended otherwise. Tsk, tsk, both of them are really a match made in vanity!”
…
People began to turn the tide, mocking Ye Xinyu.
Ye Xinyu was so angry that she was about to burst into tears, struggling to pull her hand back.
But Ou Linlin grabbed her tightly, “Oh, some people just love to claim things that aren’t theirs as their own. Is this a habit from stealing, or from snatching?”
With one forceful attempt, Ou Linlin finally removed the ruby ring.
Ye Xinyu’s left ring finger immediately swelled up, and she stood there furious and embarrassed, tears welling in her eyes as she looked at Gu Zuocheng.
Ou Linlin blew on the Red Earl in her hand and then fished out a little brocade box directly from Gu Zuocheng’s suit pocket, opened it, took out the diamond ring inside, and stuffed it into Ye Xinyu’s hand, “Take a good look, this is what’s yours!”
“Oh, it’s just an ordinary diamond ring, huh?”
“Looks to be about 5 carats, nowhere near the same league as the Red Earl…”

“Exactly! In marriage, it’s all about matching social ranks! What kind of person deserves what kind of wedding ring, right Mrs. Gu? Right, Ye Xinyu?” Ou Linlin returned the ‘matching social ranks’ argument originally from Bai Xue and Ye Xinyu right back to them, with a smile on her face.
The crowd couldn’t help but laugh uproariously.
Bai Xue’s face turned pale in an instant, and with embarrassment, she took Ye Xinyu’s hand, saying, “Let’s go!”
“Leaving so soon? What about the meal at the six-star Royal Duke Restaurant?” Guan Zhizhi blurted out anxiously.
As soon as she spoke, the crowd burst into laughter again.
Ye Xinyu was so angry her face turned white, and she glared viciously at Guan Zhizhi.
Gu Zuocheng had already lost face and left with a cold snort.
Bai Xue, having mingled in high society for so long, had never experienced such ridicule, struggling to maintain face but unwilling to let go of her lady-of-the-house persona.
Trying to keep up appearances, she said, “The wedding is soon, and Xinyu and I have a lot of preparation to do, so let’s delay the gathering…”
After speaking, she tried to leave with Ye Xinyu.
However, Sun Nanjue suddenly stood up and said, “Go? Why not? Our Little Shushu has loads of money, not only can we afford a six-star hotel, but even an eight-star palace hotel in Dubai is within our reach! Royal Duke Restaurant, here we come!”
“Yay, so awesome!”
“Director Sun is really something! Thank you, Director Sun!”
…
“Don’t thank me, you should be thanking Miss Ye Shuye!” Sun Nanjue emphasized the words ‘Miss Ye’ with deep meaning.
Ye Xinyu’s face turned absolutely white, her whole body trembling with anger.
Bai Xue’s face sunk even darker, pulling Ye Xinyu and quickly walking away with heads hung low.
“Hmph, picking on our Ye Shu, as if they don’t know their own weight!” Ou Linlin spat in their direction and went straight up to Ye Shu, handing her the Red Earl, “Put it on and see.”
Ye Shu’s gaze landed on the dazzling ruby, then she glanced at Sun Nanjue who was surrounded by people, her brow slightly furrowed.
She was sure that this was Young Master Sheng paving the way for her behind the scenes to slap Ye Xinyu’s face.
The words Young Master Sheng had said to her last night in the suite at Han Zong Hotel flashed through her mind—he had mentioned that the back door he had opened for Ye Xinyu would soon be closed.
So, was today’s event Young Master Sheng’s way of giving her a sweet treat?
