48: Chapter 48: He’s Not Worthy of You! 48: Chapter 48: He’s Not Worthy of You! Fang Bai and Xia Chenyu watched as two handsome young men pushed the door and entered the “Plum Blossom Hall,” their gazes then falling onto the man on the left dressed in a white suit, their faces showing different expressions. A faint smile lingered on Fang Bai’s lips, while Xia Chenyu had a frosty expression, her beautiful eyes brimming with anger. The man in the white suit was none other than Shen Huanian. Fang Bai had met Shen Huanian through Tang Wenrou, while Xia Chenyu had known Shen Huanian for over a decade. Both of them did not have a good relationship with Shen Huanian, especially Xia Chenyu, who regarded him as if he were an enemy at sight. “Shen Huanian, what are you doing here?” Xia Chenyu thought Shen Huanian was there to pester her again, trying to persuade her to “return to her ancestral roots”, she said coldly, “I am having a meal with a friend. Please leave!” As she spoke to Shen Huanian, his gaze, however, was on Fang Bai. “It’s you!” When Shen Huanian saw Fang Bai, the smile at the corner of his mouth disappeared. “It’s me.” Fang Bai grinned, revealing eight snow-white teeth. Xia Chenyu cast a surprised glance at Fang Bai, not expecting that he actually knew Shen Huanian. “How come you are with my sister?” Seeing Fang Bai and Xia Chenyu sitting next to each other, practically touching, their demeanors quite intimate, Xia Chenyu’s cheeks flushed with red, clearly showing signs of drunkenness, Shen Huanian’s eyes suddenly shot out a fierce light, and he asked through gritted teeth. “Shen Huanian, who do you think you are? My affairs are not your concern!” Before Fang Bai could speak, Xia Chenyu had already stood up and said coldly. Shen Huanian asked in a deep voice, “Chenyu, what is your relationship with this guy?” Xia Chenyu’s pretty face showed a seductive smile, her hands affectionately clinging to one of Fang Bai’s arms, tilting her head slightly and resting it on Fang Bai’s shoulder, she said, full of happiness, “Can’t you see what our relationship is? Do you think I would be so idle as to dine here with a man who has nothing to do with me?” Shen Huanian knew Xia Chenyu’s personality very well, if Fang Bai did not share an intimate relationship with her, she would never have dinner alone with him. It was precisely because of this that Shen Huanian felt very angry, In Shen Huanian’s eyes, although Xia Chenyu had always taken her mother’s surname, she shared the same father as himself, and the blood of the Shen Family coursed through her veins, thus she should be considered a member of the Shen Family. The Shen Family was a deeply rooted and vast clan, with its reach extending nearly everywhere in Huaxia. No one would deny that members of the Shen Family were born superior, and wherever the descendants of the Shen Family went, they carried capital enough to be proud of. And women of the Shen Family, especially those as outstanding as Xia Chenyu who were still of marriageable age, were not meant to decide on their own love and marriage, but should instead be arranged by the current Family Head, their own father Shen Dongyang. The mission of a woman of the Shen Family was to seek the greatest benefits for the Shen Family, to contribute to the development and growth of the Shen Family, to add strength to its power. As a woman of the Shen Family, only men with a noble status like hers, the sons of influential clans, should have the right to associate with Xia Chenyu. How could Fang Bai, a poor boy, be worthy of the noble-born and beautiful Xia Chenyu? To say he’s a toad lusting after a swan’s flesh would be a compliment! Last time at the Zhongzhou City Police Station, Shen Huanian sent flowers to Tang Wenrou, launching a romantic offensive, but Tang Wenrou declared Fang Bai was her boyfriend. The furious Shen Huanian had someone investigate Fang Bai in secret and found out that Fang Bai was just an ordinary student at Zhongzhou Medical College, from a common poor family. At that moment, Shen Huanian realized he had been played by Tang Wenrou. Perhaps Fang Bai was nothing more than a shield she used to fend off his pursuit. Despite this, Shen Huanian still harbored an inexplicable hatred toward Fang Bai—Tang Wenrou was the woman he liked, and he felt deep animosity towards any man who appeared at her side. Few could believe that Shen Huanian, who always seemed to bear a gentle and cultured smile, was actually a man with a cold heart and a narrow mind—a hypocrite. If the chance arose, Shen Huanian wouldn’t mind teaching Fang Bai a lesson. Now, seeing Xia Chenyu and Fang Bai’s bodies pressed closely together in intimate gestures, a fiery rage surged within Shen Huanian. Women of the Shen Family were incomparably noble, each one a so-called Heavenly Daughter. If Xia Chenyu were to return to the Shen Family, her looks and temperament would undoubtedly make her an important asset to their house. To a poor boy like Fang Bai, exuding an air of earthiness, even touching Xia Chenyu was a desecration. Thus, even though it was Xia Chenyu who initiated the intimacy, Shen Huanian wished Fang Bai would drop dead on the spot. “This woman, she’s torturing me!” Seeing the cold light behind Shen Huanian’s glasses, Fang Bai could only offer a bitter smile. With Tang Wenrou in front and Xia Chenyu behind, these two women were using him as a shield, both against Shen Huanian.

Just one look at Shen Huanian’s eyes made it clear that the man must utterly despise him. If looks could kill, Fang Bai believed Shen Huanian would have slaughtered him many times over. Fang Bai wasn’t afraid of trouble, yet he didn’t want needless turmoil. However, the trouble brought on by Xia Chenyu was something he couldn’t avoid—after all, he had promised to be friends with her, and they had even referred to each other as siblings, toasting to it with drinks just moments ago. With these ties, Fang Bai felt that he couldn’t extricate himself from the situation at hand. So, when Xia Chenyu hooked her arm in his and tenderly rested her head on his shoulder, he also played along with a wicked smile, wrapping his arm around Xia Chenyu’s soft and slender waist, adopting a domineering pose as if to say, “This woman belongs to me.” Xia Chenyu’s body was soft and warm against Fang Bai. Though separated by several layers of clothing, he could still feel the soft silkiness of her skin. The scent of alcohol mixed with her feminine fragrance wafted into Fang Bai’s nose, stirring his emotions. “Chenyu, he’s not worthy of you!” Shen Huanian took a deep breath, striving to calm down, and pointed at Fang Bai, saying, “He is just a poor student studying medicine at Zhongzhou Medical College, a mere toad in a mud pond! And you, you are a daughter of the Shen Family, destined to soar above the clouds like a phoenix!” “I’ve already said, I have nothing to do with the Shen Family, nor am I some phoenix. I’m just a woman with no parents, alone in this world, trying to make my own way,” Xia Chenyu lifted her graceful swan-like neck, her hand gently caressing Fang Bai’s cheek, her face tipsy, “He’s not a toad. In terms of appearance and demeanor, he’s no worse than you. All you have over him is the status of the Shen Family’s young master. Without that, you’re far beneath him!”
