The girl in the mirror disappeared after making her movements. Then Shu Yian woke up.

The person in the mirror was her.

Half a year ago, she had a particularly unfortunate accident. She was sitting at home minding her business when the crystal chandelier hanging on the ceiling fell and hit her on the head. Blood had seeped from her head wounds but fortunately her family found her in time and sent her to the hospital.

Really, why did she suddenly have such a strange dream?

The light was starting to get better and Shu Yian turned to look at the time. It was just after 5:30 in the morning, a whole two hours earlier than her usual wake up time. She didn’t feel tired or sleepy anymore so she sat up and decided to write her novel until seven o’clock before going downstairs for breakfast.

Meanwhile, Su Wen was feeling a little guilty towards Shu Yian due to what happened last night. So her tone was laced with slight concern as she asked “Have you eaten enough?”

【Damn, why did I ask her this?】

【What if she thinks I’m complaining about her eating too much?】

【But she really does eat more than the average girl so my words aren’t wrong.】

Shu Yian sighed and glanced her way, but didn’t say anything. She didn’t want to pay any attention to this woman so early in the morning.

Su Wen also didn’t say anything more, but the tone of her voice in her heart was aggrieved.

【I’m talking to you and yet you ignore me.】

【Do you think you’re the only one who’s angry?】

【I’m angry too!】

【Yet, despite my anger, I’m taking the initiative to talk with you.】

【If you’re going to ignore me then fine! I don’t care!】

【From now on, let’s just never talk to each other.】

【It’s not like I’m a little baby who needs comfort!】

Shu Yian almost spat out the milk in her mouth.

Little baby? Did Su Wen just call herself a little baby?

Ah, she’s getting goosebumps. This person’s character is too hard to figure out….

Annoying!

Shu Yian choked on her food and coughed over and over again. At this moment, Su Wen wanted to go over to help by patting her on the back a little, but then she remembered the rules she set for herself before she could act.

【No! I said I would ignore her, we cannot indulge her!】

【What if I treat her a little better and then she misunderstands? Misunderstands that I like her?】

【This person is narcissistic and loves to inflate her own ego. If that happens, how will I get rid of her then?】

Shu Yian: “???”

Old women, are you sure the narcissistic one is not yourself?

Su Wen’s thoughts didn’t stop there, 【But if she pesters me, she won’t have time to pester other women, right? 】

【It’s not like I care who Shu Yian likes, it really doesn’t matter who she likes. It’s just that this woman has bad morals and a fickle heart. If she really gets a girl, that person will surely be hurt.】

【No! As a person with a conscience, I can’t let her go out and do evil!】

【Ai, there’s no other choice but for me to sacrifice myself. If I don’t jump into this hell, who will? In order to save all those ignorant victims, I can only let myself be wronged. 】

Thinking like this, Su Wen stretched out to pat Shu Yian on the back.

“What are you doing?” Shu Yian quickly avoided her claws. Of course she knew exactly what the other person was thinking but she wasn’t going to go along with it!

Su Wen’s arm froze and she grew embarrassed.

【It seems I spaced out for too long and this person doesn’t need my help anymore…】

【However, why does she reject my touch so much?】

【If you won’t let me touch then I won’t touch. It’s not like I haven’t touched others before. I’ll go touch other women instead, their skin will be 10 times better than yours!】

Shu Yian looked at her with contempt. Does this woman really think she can’t hear her insults?

Go and hug others, I wanna see how you’ll do it!

Shu Yian put these thoughts into words, “From now on, please refrain from touching me. President Su, if your hands are feeling itchy and you want to touch a woman, I can help you find a nice one for you.”

Su Wen never expected Shu Yian to say such a thing. After a while, she sputtered angrily, “Beat it!”

【Listen, are those even human words you’re saying? You’re telling me to go find another woman?】

【Shu Yian, you jerkface!】

Shu Yian was befuddled by this woman. Is her brain sick? Didn’t she say in her mind that she wanted to go find other women?

She thinks of herself so highly but is unwilling to say it out loud, she really is worthy of being the arrogant and domineering female CEO type!

Shu Yian didn’t bother replying as she was too lazy to argue with her anymore. After the two of them quieted down, both feeling unhappy in their hearts, the two quickly finished their breakfast and went out.

The driver had waited for them together outside for a long time. As usual, Shu Yian sat in the passenger seat as she didn’t want to sit next to Su Wen but this time Su Wen was unsatisfied with this arrangement.

“Sit over here!”

“No!” Shu Yian said decisively.

The driver, a big middle-aged man, suddenly grew small and pitiful as he cried in his heart: 【These two ancestors are going to start quarreling again.】

【Please don’t drag innocents into this!】

Su Wen restated her words, “From now on, if you want to ride in this car, you can only sit in the back.”

“Why must I sit next to you? If I sit in the front, neither of us will have to look at each other. Isn’t that a good thing?”

Su Wen: “…..”

【Y-You actually think of me as annoying?!】

【When you used to like me you kept saying how much you loved me, but now that you don’t, you think I’m annoying?】

【I won’t let you do as you please!】

After making up her mind, Su Wen said with a cold expression, “The driver is going on a vacation starting tomorrow!”

Driver: “?????”

【Why didn’t I know I was going on vacation?】

“So,” Su Wen continued, “I will be driving the car myself tomorrow and the passenger seat is reserved for my girlfriend only. You are not qualified!”

Although she knew the other party was lying, Shu Yian didn’t have any other choice. She really couldn’t refute this sentence without revealing anything. If Su Wen really drove, then she really didn’t want to sit in that passenger seat.

So Shu Yian reluctantly moved to sit in the back. When Su Wen saw her sit down, she said in a satisfied tone to the driver, “Drive!”

There was a seat between the two as neither wanted to be right next to each other. Shu Yian felt stuffy in the car and turned to Su Wen and said, “Did you close the transaction with the taxi from last time?”

“En!”

“If you mind me taking your car, then I can just hire another driver. That way I won’t have to sit beside you and I won’t get in your way.” The reason Shu Yian is even bothering to tell her is not because she needs her money but because if Su Wne doesn’t agree then she’ll keep sending away any driver Shu Yian finds.

She had wanted to say “that way it won’t get in anyone’s way” but she remembered Su Wen’s childish behavior from before. Putting aside her thoughts on the matter, she could only pretend that this was all for Su Wen’s sake.

Meanwhile, Su Wen sneered coldly in her heart at these words.

【Do you really take me for a fool? 】

【Do you think I don’t know that you’re just trying to avoid me? 】

【No way!】

“No!” She refused, her tone clearly indicating that there was no room for negotiation.

Shu Yian glanced at her from the side of her eyes, “Why are you doing this?”

Although she and Su Wen like to fight and argue, she only does it at the appropriate times and not so much on purpose. In fact, she had hoped the two of them could just avoid each other and waste less of each other’s time.

【Yes, why am I doing this? 】

Su Wen never would’ve imagined that one day she would get so riled up by someone else. In the end, Shu Yian is a lecherous person who is always greedy for more money so she really shouldn’t get involved with her but for some reason she actually cares about her.

Su Wen would never admit that this care and concern has something to do with feelings, so she searched for a reason that would convince herself.

After thinking about it, Su Wen finally came up with an adequate excuse.

【It’s probably because I am a kind-hearted and good-natured person who can’t accept Shu Yian doing all those vile things. 】

Although this was her thought, she couldn’t say it out loud.

She lowered her eyes as if she was indifferent to the matter, but the words that came out of her mouth would naturally make anyone angry, “I’m happy when you’re not happy.”

The driver in the front has been trying his best to stay out of this dispute between the two but even he couldn’t help but be speechless: 【President Su is hopeless, there’s no way to save her now.】

Shu Yian has never seen such a self-righteous and combative person before. Not to mention, this person even proclaimed to be “kind-hearted” in her excuse?

If murder wasn’t against the law, Shu Yian would’ve snapped her neck right there.

Su Wen grew nervous at the sight of Shu Yian clenching her fists. Although she learned a little martial arts, they were purely for self-defense and she wasn’t the type to harm other women. Not to mention fighting Shu Yian would be very damaging to her image.

She changed the subject immediately, “What are you going to do with those people from yesterday?”

Although she had switched the subject suddenly, she actually wanted to ask Shu Yian about this yesterday and has been waiting for the chance to speak of it.

“There’s nothing to deal with, I’ve already sent them to the police.” Shu Yian closed her eyes as she thought of the three hooligans from last night. Those rascals were nothing in her mind.

Su Wen continued, “I’ve already ordered people to investigate those criminals. However, I meant what will you do about those people at the banquet.”

How could she not see through everything? She knew that those people deliberately targeted Shu Yian to make fun of her but she hadn’t done anything yet when Shu Yian easily solved the problem. The banquet might be over, but it does not mean she has forgotten about this matter.

No matter how much she and Shu Yian fight, that’s a private matter between the two of them and is not a relationship outsiders should intervene in. Besides, Shu Yian had to face those people because she had brought them to the banquet. Shu Yian cannot be wronged in vain and they need to give her fiancee at least an explanation.

Shu Yian was not moved by her actions and didn’t even bother opening her eyes.

In the past, those “Others can’t bully you, only I can” sentiment was quite romantic but perhaps she’s seen this trope one too many times and now she only likes the type of protagonist that goes, “I can’t bear to hurt you, let alone let others hurt you.”

A character that is leagues above Su Wen.

“No need.” Shu Yian rejected. First, she doesn’t want to owe Su Wen anything and she likes that they are on even ground right now. Second, she really doesn’t want to bother with this.

If she didn’t showcase her skills and made a fool of herself, then perhaps she would get her revenge but she felt that she had resolved the matter. At the time, many people praised her and it could be considered a slap in the face to those who looked down on her.

She regained the reputation that was thrown away by the previous host and so there was no need to hold onto grudges and the mistakes of people like them.

To do so was to lower herself to their level.

Seeing that Shu Yian had made up her mind and didn’t care about this matter, Su Wen didn’t say anymore. However, she felt a little unsatisfied in her heart.

【Why do I feel so helpless?】

She remembered that whenever her friend’s girlfriend was wronged, she would always ask her friend for help. At the time, Su Wen remarked that the girl acted like a spoiled child with no independence. What was the use in acting like this?

But now, she felt a little envious of her friend.

【If only Shu Yian was like that girl. 】

【Always looking to me for help and worshiping me like I hung the moon and stars. 】

Shu Yian, who had closed her eyes for a nap, finally opened them as she looked at Su Wen with a bewildered expression.

What is wrong with this person’s brain?

When their eyes met, Su Wen hurriedly turned her head to the side as her heart beat widely.

【Of course, that doesn’t mean I’ll be her meat shield for every wind and rain.】

【What I mean is that I want her to respect me and think I’m omnipotent so I can stand on higher ground in future arguments.】

【No, what the hell am I saying? Why am I acting like a husband who’s scared of their wife’s disapproval?】

【Pei! No, I can’t keep going around in circles. I got to be more direct. What I mean to say is that when Shu Yian can’t do anything and asks me for help, I’ll scold her with a single word, “Waste!” 】

Shu Yian couldn’t bear it any longer, she stretched out her head like a snapping turtle and lifted Su Kiss’s clothes before taking a bite of her arm.

Su Wen was surprised: “What are you doing?”

Shu Yian didn’t bite hard enough to bite blood but it did hurt Su Wen and there was a clear imprint of two rows of teeth marks on her arm.

Shu Yian pretended to be sleepy as she rubbed her eyes and said innocently, “I was dreaming about eating pig trotters just now and couldn’t help taking a bite!”

Su Wen: “…”

【Isn’t she calling me a pig trotter*? She’s out of control!】(*T/N: Slang. Pig trotter (usually a male) = a self-centered, disgusting, annoying, frat boy vibes, and greasy person)

【You think I won’t touch you?】

When Shu Yian wasn’t paying attention, Su Wen grabbed Shu Yian’s chin and leaned over to take a bite of her cheek.

The strength used was not heavy and although it was revenge, in terms of pain, she was the one that suffered a bigger loss. Nonetheless, she was in a good mood.

【I didn’t lose this round!】

Author’s Notes:

Su Wen: Hehe, I am satisfied.

T/N: I swear these two act like little toddlers. I’m here for the dumbass energy.
