147: Chapter 147 Chu Ziqing's Revenge
Ever since Chu Ziqing learned that the ex-boyfriend she had kicked to the curb had suddenly and inexplicably struck it rich, she had been in a mentally unstable state, doubting everything.
She couldn't understand it, she couldn't accept it, and she couldn't let it go. She suspected that everyone was having problems, and that the world itself seemed to have gone wrong.
After a sleepless night, her long-dormant intellect began to grind into gear once more.
After all, she had the level of intelligence to get into Provincial University; her basic logical analysis skills were still intact.
She first assumed that everything Zhao Xiaoshuai currently possessed was real. If so, then first of all, he must have undergone fitness training and weight loss to transform from that somewhat greasy, middle-aged fatty into what he was now.
She recalled the first time she saw her ex-boyfriend with his fit girlfriend after they broke up; it was on a commercial street, and there happened to be a large fitness center nearby.
So, early in the morning, she headed to that fitness center, intending to try her luck.
As it happened, she was lucky; she just happened to see Meng Yawen gracefully step out of a panamera.
Chu Ziqing first took a photo of the car and asked a friend who knew about cars. It was a luxury car worth over a million.
She then pretended to sign up for a membership and chatted with the front desk, finding out that Meng Yawen was actually the owner of the place.
Chu Ziqing comforted herself, thinking that perhaps her ex-boyfriend had latched onto a wealthy woman and was using her money to play around with other women. If that were the case, as long as she exposed him...
"Your boss Meng looks so young, like she just graduated. Did she inherit this center from her family?"
"Oh no, this center was bought by President Zhao and gifted to our boss. It's so romantic. You should sign up for a membership, Miss, and I can chat with you in more detail later."
The delusion that her ex-boyfriend was being kept by a wealthy woman was shattered by a bolt from the blue. Chu Ziqing looked at the huge fitness center, feeling very bitter inside.
"A million-dollar luxury car, a multi-million dollar fitness center—he gives them away just like that to a woman he's only known for a short while. We were together for so many years, and the money you spent on me didn't even add up to a hundred thousand!"
Originally, she had been quite satisfied with the man who was currently pursuing her; he had given her a car to drive and various small gifts. But now, when she made a comparison, it instantly lost its appeal.
"Liar! You dead scumbag! So you've been hiding your identity and deceiving me all this time!"
Chu Ziqing felt deep regret, but the thought of going back to beg for reconciliation only appeared for an instant before she crushed it herself. She would always love herself the most, and she could never bring herself to suffer any grievances.
"At that time, he had no house, no car, and only earned that little bit of money every month—it wasn't even enough to buy me some high-end cosmetics. What was wrong with me leaving him?"
"Did I really have to suffer through hardship with him?" "What did I do wrong?" "He's the one who's wrong. He shouldn't have hidden it from me. He just wanted to test me; ultimately, he didn't trust me!"
Since she had blocked the path to reconciliation herself, she only had one choice left. She absolutely could not let him live comfortably!
Even if he was rich now, if his cheating on multiple partners was exposed, he definitely wouldn't have an easy time. Thinking of this, she returned to the front desk, "Please help me contact your President Meng. Just tell her I know Zhao Xiaoshuai, and there are some things I want to discuss with her."
Seeing Meng Yawen again, she was still as youthful and beautiful as ever, but Chu Ziqing, having not slept all night, had puffy under-eye bags and looked haggard, covering it up with heavy powder. She subconsciously raised her phone to check her makeup, and only felt relieved after confirming it wasn't noticeable.
"It's you. Say what you have to say quickly; I have a lot of work to do and no time to chat with you." After Chu Xinyi told her that story, she had vaguely guessed that the strange woman she met at the ski resort was most likely Zhao Xiaoshuai's ex-girlfriend, Chu Ziqing. So, she was very blunt from the start.
"You know me? Did he tell you?" "Don't flatter yourself; he hasn't mentioned a word about you. Chu Ziqing, right? Someone else mentioned you to me. Stop with the nonsense; what exactly do you want with me?"
'Someone else? Could it be his childhood friend?' Seeing that the person in front of her was showing signs of impatience and was about to leave, Chu Ziqing put aside her doubts and quickly said, "I came here with good intentions to remind you, to save you from being played for a fool, and this is the attitude you give me?"
"Heh, you had this same look last time, and all you did was spout nonsense. I don't have time to waste on you. If you pester me again, I'm calling security."
Seeing that the person opposite her wouldn't listen to reason, Chu Ziqing got anxious, "You don't even know your boyfriend is cheating on multiple people! And to think you still have the heart to help him manage this sports center!"
Meng Yawen stopped and turned around. Seeing her walk back, Chu Ziqing smiled triumphantly, "I saw him having dinner with another intelligent, beautiful woman just a few days ago, and the two of them were very intimate."
"Is that all you wanted to say?" The other party's reaction seemed a bit different from what Chu Ziqing had expected, and she couldn't figure out what was going on: "Did you hear me clearly? Your boyfriend Zhao Xiaoshuai is cheating on multiple people; he's just playing with your feelings!"
Meng Yawen was a bit impatient and also a bit angry. This woman was still trying to sabotage their relationship even after breaking up; it was truly detestable. "I've known about what you said for a long time. The day we confirmed our relationship, he was already open and honest about it."
"Besides, isn't it all your fault that he became like this? You still have the nerve to come here and continue trying to sabotage our relationship? You really are shameless!"
"I've already wasted too much time on you. Xiao Li, this customer has some mental issues. Help me show her out, and pay attention in the future—don't just let anything into the place."
Known for a long time? My fault? I have mental issues? Chu Ziqing was a bit stunned. She understood every word the other person said, but why couldn't she understand a single sentence when they were put together?
"Miss, please head outside. If you continue to cause trouble, we will have to call the police." "Don't touch me, I'll leave myself!" Chu Ziqing was now certain that something must be wrong with this world.
She had come here full of confidence, only to be chased out like a dog with its tail between its legs. Chu Ziqing's mindset was exploding. She took out her phone and sent a message to the man who was pursuing her: "I saw a white car today that was so pretty. Can you buy me one?" She attached a photo of Meng Yawen's car and sent the message.
After just a moment, the other party replied: "Haha, you're so humorous." Humorous? I'm so frustrated I could cry, how could I not be humorous! "Trash, you want to pursue me with just that little bit of financial strength!"
She kicked a snowdrift hard, but who would have thought it contained a small stone block inside. Chu Ziqing's tears welled up from the pain, and she squatted on the ground. At this moment, she felt that the whole world was targeting her.
The man pursuing Chu Ziqing clearly noticed that after having dinner together that day, Chu Ziqing had become somewhat abnormal. So, when he saw that somewhat insane text message, he didn't get angry. Instead, after thinking about it, he felt she might have been triggered by something, so he thought about asking her out to go skiing to clear her mind.
Chu Ziqing only saw the text message after sleeping soundly at home for half a day. By this time, she had regained a little bit of her reason, and she did indeed want to go out to clear her mind, so she agreed. Moreover, remembering the unhappy experience of her last skiing trip, she specifically set the time for the afternoon. Even if there was a one-in-a-million chance, she didn't want to run into anything related to that person again.
But fate played a cruel trick. Her mood had originally improved a lot, but suddenly she saw her ex-boyfriend again! He was skiing affectionately hand-in-hand with a young, pretty girl, occasionally letting out happy laughter.
'He changed to another one!?' 'And she's also this young and pretty!' 'I'll let you laugh so happily! I don't believe that all your women are like that abnormal woman, able to accept you cheating on multiple partners!'
Chu Ziqing's mindset completely exploded. Regardless of anything else, she ditched the man who was accompanying her and skied over. After getting close, in front of everyone, she began her revenge like a shrew.
