Chapter 475: Going insane with the heartbroken

It was midnight by the time Su Tao and Ni Jingqiu arrived at a mutton restaurant located in the 5th Circle. Despite being in the summer with the temperature gradually rising, the business here was still bustling.

The two of them chose a seat in a corner and Ni Jingqiu ordered a roasted mutton platter, mutton soup, and simmered mutton.

The surrounding customers were mostly all cab drivers that spoke of vulgar jokes with the female drivers and causing occasional laughter.

"I never expected that you would come to this sort of place." Su Tao smiled.

Taking out her phone, Ni Jingqiu smiled. "My assistant introduced this place to me. I asked her if there's a suitable place to drink, and she gave me the address here. Oh, right. Film City is nearby, and Rushan might be nearby if she's shooting a night scene. You want to try to ask her out?"

"Why ask her out? Didn't you say to keep it from her?" Su Tao awkwardly smiled.

Wearing a smug look on her face, Ni Jingqiu replied, "I want to see how she will act if she sees her boyfriend with another woman."

"I never expected that you would have such a sick interest." Su Tao ignored Ni Jingqiu and busied himself with the peanuts on the table.

When Ni Jingqiu raised her phone and pretended to look for Gu Rushan's number, she grumbled when she saw that Su Tao had ignored her, "Can't you play along? You could at least pretend to stop me!"

"It's foolish to play along with someone who has fallen out of love, and I'm not that insane!" Su Tao gave Ni Jingqiu a look of disdain.

Letting out a deep breath, Ni Jingqiu replied, "Can't you be more gentlemanly? It's rude to jab on my scars."

"I'm a doctor, and I'm proficient with scars. There's a method to cut it apart with a knife before applying medicine. Not only can the medicinal effect permeate into the wounds, but it can also remove the scars." Su Tao placed his chopsticks down and sighed, "Come, I'll be your listening ear for your story with Huo Kun."

For some reason, Ni Jingqiu felt a sour sensation in her nose as she took a deep breath and revealed everything about Huo Kun without restraint. How he wooed her, how meticulous he was, and their romantic experiences, she blurted everything out.

As the listening ear, Su Tao actually did not feel comfortable listening to Ni Jingqiu's stories.

Huo Kun was a scumbag, and it proved how love could be a poison that causes one to lose their rationale by how she remembered all the good things about him.

As steam permeated from the dishes, the meat was fragrant, combining the spiciness and high-degree alcohol, Ni Jingqiu started to feel a little tipsy as she chugged down on the alcohol to vent out her emotions.

"You drink as well so that we can do something irrational together." Ni Jingqiu teased when she saw that he wasn't drinking.

"Something irrational?" Su Tao pretended not to understand Ni Jingqiu's words.

Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, or Ni Jingqiu was afraid of the mutton's smell staining her coat, she was only wearing the gown that she wore for the banquet. Sitting at the street food stall, it was unavoidable for her to seem misplaced with the surroundings. At the same time, the cab drivers would occasionally drift their eyes over. There's a reason why they chose to eat here. Aside from the food, they could occasionally find celebrities from Film City here.

With her dressing and appearance, it was unavoidable for other customers to take her for a celebrity.

"The deed between a man and woman, you know!" Under the influence of alcohol, Ni Jingqiu's speech became more casual. However, Su Tao knew that she was acting in this manner on purpose, which he sighed in his heart. Women were always at their weakest when they were hurt by love.

"Are you trying to seduce me?"

Su Tao's interest was a little piqued, seeing how Ni Jingqiu was like other women when they're under the influence of alcohol by discarding her phoney appearance.

"Isn't that the only thing between men and women? I have some favourable opinions of you, and since that's the case, why don't we enjoy ourselves a little?" Ni Jingqiu smiled. "I was sick in the past, but aren't I cured now? So I should be able to do it. Oh, I don't have any experience in that matter, so you got a bargain!"

As she spoke, tears started to stream down her cheeks.

The reason why she spoke so straightforwardly was that she had shredded her pretence under the influence of alcohol.

Holding onto Ni Jingqiu's hand as she tried to pour herself another cup, Su Tao sighed and persuaded, "You've drunk too much, slow down."

"Didn't you say that alcohol is the best medicine? Now, you're forbidding me to drink. How can you, as a man, go against your own words?" Ni Jingqiu frowned.

Letting out a sigh, Su Tao awkwardly smiled. "Adjust your clothes a little. Pay attention to your own appearance; you look nothing like a lady now."

Ni Jingqiu's gown wasn't like other cheap dresses that would malfunction so easily. But even so, she still had to pull her dress occasionally, or it would drop. Right now, the neckline of her dress was already shallow, and in addition to her graceful figure, she gave off an aesthetic beauty.

Despite the dim lighting in the stall, men would still occasionally drift their eyes over, in which, Su Tao sighed. It was an unavoidable 'hazard' being together with beauty.

"So what if they see? They can't touch it anyway, so why would I have to be afraid? Isn't it just the body of a woman? You can find tons of them online." Ni Jingqiu casually smiled.

Hearing her words, Su Tao wore a helpless expression. Ni Jingqiu probably had no idea that there's a difference between pictures and real-life. When she even swayed her body on purpose, Su Tao was rendered even more speechless.

Seeing her gown slipping down and was on the verge of exposure, he immediately stood up and pulled her gown for her from her back.

Although Ni Jingqiu might seem wasted, she was still conscious. Thus, Su Tao's sudden action had startled her, which she immediately tried to dodge and she lost her balance then held onto Su Tao's neck to save herself.

Being pulled all of a sudden, Su Tao lost his sense of balance, and the two of them fell to the ground.

"You sticking rogue!" Ni Jingqiu was furious and bashful as she immediately pushed Su Tao away.

Su Tao also felt that his action was a little too big, so he stood up in a hurry and helped Ni Jingqiu up. At this moment, the waiter immediately came over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Waving his hand, Su Tao smiled. "Nothing, we were just having a dispute."

The waiter instantly misunderstood it as a quarrel between lovebirds, which his lips turned crooked and he left.

But just when they were getting back to their seats, a mocking voice sounded from the entrance, "What a scandal in the making!"

Hearing that voice, Ni Jingqiu jolt then she directed her gaze at the entrance and was dumbfounded. She never expected that it would be so much of a coincidence for her to encounter Huo Kun here.

But in fact, it couldn't be considered a coincidence.

Beijing might be huge, but there weren't many stalls that were still open at this time, not to mention that they're both in the same upper circle. Hence, this sort of encounter wasn't surprising.

Upon hearing the order of her mother to woo Wang Jiajia, Huo Kun called an actress out to ease his stress, and this actress just so happened to be filming in Film City. Thus, the two of them made an appointment to have a meal here. However, Huo Kun never expected that he would witness the scene of Su Tao and Ni Jingqiu behaving so intimately upon entering.

Although the two of them have already broken up, Huo Kun was still furious and felt that he had been cuckolded.

"It's no wonder why you wanted to divorce with me, so you're having an affair with him! Now that I think about it, that video from the hotel must be a scheme of yours!" The more Huo Kun thought about it, the more his heart went cold and insulted, "Ni Jingqiu, you're a bloody slut, and I'm a fool!"

Ni Jingqiu might have drunk quite a bit, but she sobered up upon seeing Huo Kun and she coldly berated, "Don't try and slander me. Su Tao and I are just friends!"

"Friends? Would friends behave so intimately in public? How shameless!" Huo Kun sneered.

Seeing Huo Kun's insult going from bad to worst, to the point that all the customers were looking at them, Ni Jingqiu grimly said, "Huo Kun, our relationship has already ended. So is it related to you on who I'm dating?"

"Right, there's no relation!" Huo Kun gnashed his teeth before he suddenly embraced the actress beside him and gave her a peck on her cheek.

The actress was left uncomfortable by his sudden actions and grumbled, "What are you doing? I don't like this!"

"Cooperate with me, or you can get lost!" Huo Kun whispered in the actress' ear as he gritted his teeth.

Even if the actress knew that Huo Kun was just using her, she held herself back upon thinking of his identity. Thus, she started to act with him and even swayed her waist to take the initiative.

Seeing the two of them kissing so intimately, the customers nearby instantly started to cheer from the passionate scene.

However, Ni Jingqiu collapsed onto the chair as streams of tears flowed down her cheeks. Even if she knew that Huo Kun had a loose lifestyle, she still felt her heart being torn apart upon witnessing how Huo Kun kissed another woman so passionately to humiliate her.

She was ravaged with all sorts of negative emotions and finally understood that she was blinded and had made a huge mistake in the past.

At this moment, Su Tao abruptly stood up with a grave expression and walked in Huo Kun's direction.

Upon seeing Su Tao's reaction, Huo Kun's friends were already on the edge of taking action.

However, Huo Kun knew how capable Su Tao was, and even his cousin was currently unconscious because of the latter.

"What do you want to do?" Huo Kun wasn't too worried. He felt calm after sweeping a glance behind him. He did not come in alone, but came with a bunch of friends.

"Nothing much, I just want you to adjust your attitude a little and apologise to Ni Jingqiu!" Su Tao said in a grim voice.

"You want me to apologise to that slut? Stop…"

But before Huo Kun could say 'dreaming', Su Tao waved his palm and gave the former a slap, interrupting his words.
