Chapter 452 - Taken (IV)

Xiong Zhi and Xiong Wuyue were both located at the front row, but they were sitting on both corner-most positions and were separated by an entire row of seats.

Everyone was astounded at Xiong Wuyue\'s sudden charge towards the woman sitting on the other end of the row.

The producer was also shocked that this actress Xiong Wuyue would actually dare to run towards the big lady with a face that was obviously looking for a fight.

The staff immediately called in the security.

It would be hell if this troublesome actress really attacked their main investor.

However, the subject of it all, Xiong Zhi, just stared at Xiong Wuyue\'s figure without backing down and remained seated, unperturbed.

Before Xiong Wuyue\'s hand could reach Xiong Zhi, a tall figure appeared and held Xiong Wuyue\'s raised wrist.

The grip was not soft at all. Xiong Wuyue inadvertently gasped in pain.

"Don\'t step any further in front of my Young Miss," Linfeng said coldly.

Xiong Wuyue\'s eyes grew wide, seeing Linfeng face to face.

Because of her surprise, she momentarily forgot the woman behind the man.

The pain she felt on her hand seemed to vanish as well.

It\'s Linfeng!

The haze in her eyes slowly cleared up.

"Linfeng... It\'s you, Linfeng…" She called his name with longing, as if her savior appeared.

But then, remembering the ghastly woman she saw in the mirror, how unkempt she looked right now, and the embarrassment she had faced earlier, Xiong Wuyue\'s face instantly burned in shame.

He… he saw it all…

Linfeng let go of her wrist indifferently, stepped back, but stayed in front of Xiong Zhi.

His eyes clearly still held a warning.

Finally, Xiong Zhi stood up, walked beside him, and took his hand. She used a white handkerchief as she wiped Linfeng\'s hand which touched Xiong Wuyue\'s wrist earlier.

"You can\'t touch dirty things casually next time."

Her actions were smooth and practiced, as if holding and wiping Linfeng\'s hand was a casual occurrence.

Linfeng\'s eyes finally softened as he diverted his gaze to Xiong Zhi\'s actions and smiled helplessly. His usually cold eyes held warmth in them. "You, really, is this even the time for that?"

"I won\'t let the virus stay on your hand for a second longer. Not allowed."

The pair\'s little interaction all fell clearly in Xiong Wuyue\'s eyes.

She froze.

Looking at how the pair intimately acted without qualms, Xiong Wuyue, who was trying to hold down herself from fully losing control of her senses, felt the strings of her reason slowly snap one by one.

Why...

Linfeng noticed her once again.

The warmth in his eyes were gone and was replaced by coldness and subtle disgust.

Those eyes delivered a huge blow in Xiong Wuyu\'s heart, pride, and reason.

Why...

Why... can\'t he look me with the same eyes like how he looks at this bitch!

This bitch, this evil fox, took out everything from her!

She was supposed to be the young miss of the Xiong family, Linfeng should have been on her side.

She was supposed to be on the position where all these people would want to curry favor from her.

Her father always told her that everything would become theirs soon.

Everyone was supposed to envy her, the only treasured princess of the Xiong family who was doted on by her father, compared to this stone-faced orphaned girl who was not loved by anyone.

But everything!

Everything! Was! Taken! Away!

Her title. Her role. Her father. And even Linfeng.

The eyes that looked at Xiong Zhi started to get filled to the brim with hatred.

Her bitter and unreconciled feelings flowed out, along with her tears.

"Why? The Zhou family already left the Xiong family, so why do you have to stay with her?"

"Evil fox! You stole it all from me! Everything!"

Xiong Wuyue started to shout nonsense.

Linfeng frowned and put a protective stance around Xiong Zhi.

Xiong Zhi looked at the madwoman, her apathetic eyes taking in how she slowly pushed Xiong Wuyue into insanity, step by step.

The security was already inside the hall, steadily approaching behind Xiong Wuyue.

The media was in uproar, the flashes of camera and the incessant voices rained at the actress\'s aggressive and unseemly state.

Xiong Wuyue only saw Linfeng\'s action and her heart was pained.

It was an unbearable heartache that Xiong Wuyue had never felt before.

She felt sad and angry for her father\'s experience, felt humiliation and unwillingness for her destroyed reputation, and felt hatred for the bitch\'s schemes.

However, this piercing heartache inside her chest when she saw how the man she liked lovingly protect the woman she hated the most… It was a first.

For all the things she lost, for all the things that was taken from her… Linfeng\'s indifferent and ruthless heart was the one which brought the heaviest blow on her.

"Linfeng, why choose her! Why choose that bitch! Is it because she is your young miss? Because you don\'t have any choice, right? Right?!"

Linfeng frowned again and did not bother answering her.

The woman in front of him was in the middle of something urgent that she needed to take care of, but she turned to him instead.

Just what was inside this woman\'s mind?

He felt that her mental state appeared to be wrong since earlier. Now, the feeling was stronger.

Xiong Wuyue pointed her pale fingers at Xiong Zhi.

"This evil fox didn\'t give you a choice, did she? Did she take away something from you as well? Did she threaten you? That\'s why you can\'t leave her? She took everything away from me too. Everything!"

Something about her wide eyes that refused to entertain everything else was eerie. She took a step forward and wanted to hug Linfeng.

"But I still have you, don\'t I?"

Like a woman who lost everything and only clung to whatever tiny piece still remained, Xiong Wuyue wanted to cling to Linfeng.

She could do it. Even though she lost everything, but if she could get Linfeng, she could still live.

And she could still win.

Xiong Zhi raised a hand and pinched a corner of Linfeng\'s clothes.

Her nonchalant eyes turned colder.

Seriously, Xiong Wuyue truly had a priorities issue.

Before she could even clean up her current problem, she was already seeking for another one.

Her eyes flickered slightly.

Was it this easy to topple this woman?

In the previous life, this woman had made her life miserable.

Now, Xiong Zhi just began to lay her hands on her, yet she already started to fall apart, all by herself.

Well, it was a good thing for Xiong Zhi.

She could make her suffer more. It did not change the fact though that Xiong Zhi would never let Xiong Wuyue\'s dirty hands land on her Linfeng, her boyfriend.

For Xiong Zhi, the image of Xiong Wuyue hugging Linfeng\'s arm in the past with a big smile on her face was still clear in her mind.

After all, that image made her only hope shatter in the midst of her despair.

Xiong Zhi\'s eyes turned cold with that memory.

Xiong Wuyue had painstakingly enacted such a play to destroy her before.

It was time to pay it back a hundred fold.
