I am not just a tycoon-Chapter 497 - 340 Empty the Magazine

Chapter 497: Chapter 340: Empty the Magazine Chapter 497: Chapter 340: Empty the Magazine Jinghu Chunxiao District.

Fang Minhui stood in front of the living room’s floor-to-ceiling window, staring blankly at the countless raindrops battering the glass; below in the garden, there were still many pedestrians taking a stroll, their hands propped over their heads, looking for places to shelter from the rain.

It had been a long time since it rained in Star City, so why was it today of all days?

Fang Minhui had been gazing vacantly for a long while until her phone conveyed Chen Ling’s cry, “Minhui, what’s wrong?

Are you okay?”

“I’m fine, Lingling.”

Fang Minhui took a deep breath, as if wanting to expel all the foul air pressuring her chest.

“Really fine?”

Chen Ling seemed to sense something.

Teacher Lih’s recent questions and reactions were all off, and combined with her best friend’s current state, there seemed to be only one reason…

“So, was Teacher Lih probing me just now?”

“So, when I told her the truth, that’s why she suddenly went weak.”

“How could I be so stupid, to spill everything after just one prompt!”

Chen Ling suddenly felt very self-reproachful because Shen Yuan and Minhui had never made their relationship public, and her remarks amounted to acknowledging their relationship for them.

Yet, thinking about it only made her angry.

It was bad enough for Shen Yuan to pull some tricks at the start-up hub, but how did he also deceive the kind-hearted Teacher Lih?

The key point was that Teacher Lih didn’t know the real truth, which explained her reaction earlier.

Minhui was also kept in the dark, otherwise, she wouldn’t be this dejected.

“Such a jerk!

It’s one thing to play around with those girls, but why manipulate the feelings of two decent women?”

Chen Ling felt very agitated and could only try to comfort her friend: “Minhui, are you okay?

Do you want me to come over and keep you company?”

“No need, Lingling, I’m fine.”

From the other end of the phone came Fang Minhui’s intermittent voice: “I’ve known…

known for a long time that Shen Yuan loved to play around, hearing it now doesn’t surprise me, just…

just that Teacher Lih must be very upset, right?”

“You’re still saying you’re fine, but I can hear you sniffing and wiping away tears.”

Chen Ling suddenly felt very empathetic.

Although Teacher Lih was heartbroken, Minhui, who had invested so much sincere affection, must be just as distressed, right?

She and Minhui had discussed it; Minhui could accept that Shen Yuan had other women outside, but she felt Shen Yuan was just playing with those women and that his heart was definitely with her, so she always silently considered herself as Shen Yuan’s official girlfriend.

But unexpectedly, it seemed that Shen Yuan’s official girlfriend was someone else, and that person was their instructor.

Minhui must feel like she was the third party, right?

Perhaps, she also felt that in Shen Yuan’s heart, she was just one of those “playthings.”

At this thought, Chen Ling couldn’t bear it: “Minhui, wait for me at home, don’t go anywhere, I’ll come right over now.”

“Really, it’s not necessary…”

Fang Minhui wanted to decline further, but the phone had already been hung up, and Chen Ling grabbed her bag and dashed out of the dormitory.

Chen Ling had a key to Fang Minhui’s house, hailed a taxi and hurried to Jinghu Chunxiao.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Fang Minhui curled up on the sofa.

Like an injured kitten, she was huddled in the corner of the sofa, her eyes already blurred by tears, her shoulders heaving with sobs.

When had Chen Ling ever seen Fang Minhui like this?

Her heart panicked, and she quickly ran over to hold Fang Minhui in her embrace.

She and Minhui had been best friends since their freshman year, doing everything together – attending class, dining, visiting the restroom, binge-watching shows – the many aspects of life had deepened their bond.

“You kept saying you’re fine, you kept saying you’re fine, yet you’re crying like this.

If I hadn’t come, would you have just cried until dawn?”

Chen Ling was deeply heartbroken, gently patting her friend’s back in consolation, while also murmuring complaints.

Tears fell down her face, “drip drop,” onto her knees, and Fang Minhui could no longer hold back, throwing her arms around Chen Ling.

Her sobs were unrestrained, crying freely as Chen Ling comforted and patted her shoulder, cursing Shen Yuan a million times in her heart.

Shen Yuan, you bastard, play with women if you will, but don’t mess with feelings!

After a long cry, Fang Minhui managed to choke out, “Teacher Lih…

Teacher Lih’s strong reaction, she must be completely unaware, and since Shen Yuan hasn’t told her anything and kept it so well hidden, he must really care about her, maybe…

maybe they even admitted to each other’s boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.”

“It turns out I’m not his girlfriend…

I just thought I was, maybe in Teacher Lih’s eyes, I’m the one who intervened in their relationship.”

As she said this, Fang Minhui felt even more wronged, and tears uncontrollably began to fall again: “I can accept Shen Yuan having other ‘playthings,’ but I can’t accept being one of Shen Yuan’s ‘playthings.'”

Chen Ling’s nose was sour, and she nearly cried herself, Shen Yuan, you scumbag, come and see what you’ve done to Minhui!

“No, of course you’re not, Shen Yuan definitely has deep feelings for you.”

Chen Ling hurriedly consoled: “Have you forgotten?

Shen Yuan bought you a house and even helped you start a flower shop.

If it were just for fun, Shen Yuan wouldn’t need to do so much for you.”

Fang Minhui shook her head: “Shen Yuan isn’t short of money, these things mean nothing to him.”

Chen Ling choked up, suddenly remembering that Teacher Lih had been driving a Porsche to work these past few days; it must have been bought by Shen Yuan.

“Lingling.”

Fang Minhui called out softly.

“What is it?”

“Now that Teacher Lih knows about this, she must be very upset.

I plan to tell Shen Yuan and have him explain and comfort her immediately.”
