The Reincarnated Goddess is Fierce - Chapter 424
Chapter 424: Enemies are Bound to Meet
These days, Hongyan was closed for renovation, so Liu Manhong took this as an opportunity to train her beauticians.
It was more like imparting some new techniques to them rather than training. This way, they could incorporate these new techniques once the new skincare products were out.
In fact, Liu Manhong knew that the new effects mostly resulted from the new products, while the techniques only served as a simple aid and cover-up.
The beauticians were all experienced, so they learnt fast.
As a result, Liu Manhong had quite some free time on her hands, which she decided to spend by shopping with friends.
Even after her friends left, she continued shopping on her own.
While strolling, she came across a boutique. The clothes and ornaments in the shop were gorgeous, and they looked like they would suit Xia Xibei very well.
Thus, she asked Xia Xibei to come over.
However, what she didn’t see coming was running into people that ruined her vibes.
“Oh god, isn’t this our Sister Hong? Why are you shopping on your own? Is it because you’ve got nothing else to keep yourself occupied with?”
An annoying, ridiculing voice sounded behind Liu Manhong.
She turned and saw a man and two women.
The good-looking, middle-aged woman in the middle appeared to be in her thirties, a scornful smile on her well-tended face.
A pretty teenage girl was holding her arm, looking like they had an intimate relationship. A tall, handsome young man was standing about two steps behind them.
Liu Manhong’s smile vanished the moment she saw the woman.
“So it’s Mrs. Wan, I see. It’s been a while. You look kinda great, so I suppose Mr. Wan hasn’t had any mistress that made you mad lately? Congrats!”
Liu Manhong’s jest made Yu Lanxiang pull a long face.
Her face turned even more ashen upon taking a closer look at Liu Manhong’s face, which made her look a few years younger.
Hongyan had closed down right as Xianrong made its grand opening.
For the past few weeks, life had been great for her, especially when Liu Manhong was at her worst.
Without Hongyan, Xianrong’s sales were on the upswing. They had even sabotaged Hongyan by hiring some of their beauticians and trainees, all in a bid to expand their business.
Originally, she thought that Liu Manhong’s life would be a mess after Hongyan was closed down, and she would probably look a lot more haggard than she did before.
Much to Yu Lanxiang’s surprise, however, Liu Manhong’s face appeared to look youthful, rosy, and bouncy with collagen. The fine lines at the corners of her eyes had disappeared somehow, and she was looking a few years younger than she previously did!
If not for the mature, profound look in her eyes, Liu Manhong basically looked just like a young lady in her twenties.
How did she defy her age?
Liu Manhong’s sarcastic words made Yu Lanxiang’s face turn even darker.
Although Hongyan was closed down and Xianrong had gotten the upper hand, the mention of her husband’s mistress would always cause a sting in her heart.
The reason they couldn’t stand each other was all because of Wan Xianyao.
As far as Liu Manhong was concerned, it was a totally undeserved disaster, like a bag of dung that fell from the sky!
Years back, Wan Xianyao fell in love with her at first sight and started courting her like mad, despite the fact that he had a wife and Liu Manhong was married to her ex-husband.
It totally disgusted Liu Manhong!
If not for the last bit of rationality left in her, she would have chopped Wan Xianyao up with a knife then!
Later, her brother-in-law, Qiao Yanjue’s father, Qiao Zhengyuan, came forth to resolve the matter. He told the Wans to think about the consequences if Wan Xianyao kept harassing Liu Manhong.
Even though the matter had been sorted out, Yu Lanxiang was far from done with it.
As far as she could see, it was Liu Manhong who had seduced Wan Xianyao, and she must be a shameless woman!
Thus, she made Bai Meixue and Liu Manhong’s ex-husband meet by design, tempting him to have an affair- she had to let Liu Manhong know how agonizing it was to have someone else meddle with her marriage!
In the end, Liu Manhong really did divorce her ex-husband, which only fueled their enmity for each other.
