Chapter 58 - The Unbearable Pain
Chapter 58 – The Unbearable Pain
''I… Can you tell me where the washroom is?" Yu Mei asked the first person who came to her sight.
She had to check if there were stains on her dress since she was already starting to feel uncomfortable. Even Jun Zixuan is nowhere to be seen.
"Walk straight past the bar counter then left." The lady kindly pointed out the direction.
"Thanks…" Struggling to endure the pain, she walked towards the bar counter.
Just as she was about to take a left turn, the person sitting on the bar stool stood up and turned back all of a sudden, bumping into her in the process.
The drink in her glass splattered on her sapphire gown drenching a portion near her waist.
Her face turned pale at the sudden cool sensation near her abdomen. She clenched her fist tightly as she took a deep breath before walking away trying to soothe her pain.
"Hey, you… Where do you think you are going?"
Yu Mei paused as she turned around to look at the woman who seemed to be somewhere around in her early 30s.
"What can I do for yo-you?" She tried to keep her tone normal but it came out trembling instead.
Her abdomen was hurting like someone was cutting out her flesh and even her limbs were beginning to ache.
She never expected that even with a new body, the first day of her period was still as painful as ever. And even more painful than before.
"Apologize."
The woman tilted her chin arrogantly before walking towards her.
She pursed her lips as she looked at the woman, "Apologize? It was you who bumped into me…you ruined my dress and you want me to apologize to you?!"
The other two young girls who were sitting on the barstool stood up before pushing her away from her shoulder.
Yu Mei staggered a few steps back and she held the edge of the counter for support. She closed her eyes because of pain. Are these people crazy?
"Fatty, do you know who you are talking to? She is the Mayor's daughter," One of the girls filled her with information while poking her shoulder.
The so-called Mayor's daughter walked towards her before looking at her in disgust, "Wearing a counterfeit of a gown from Vienne, you aren't worried about ending up in jail."
Yu Mei took a few deep breathes, "I need to go," She stood up straight.
The woman grabbed her wrist, applying pressure on her hand, "Apologize right now. Do you think just anyone is allowed to leave after messing with me?"
"Exactly when did I mess with you?" Yu Mei looked at them in frustration, "It is you and your lackeys testing my patience."
"You… Who are you calling lackies?" One of those lackey girls raised her hand to slap her.
Yu Mei grabbed her wrist before twisting it ruthlessly, "I called you a lackey…. Ahh…"
A gasp escaped her mouth when the woman fisted her hair from behind. Her eyes turned red. She grabbed the woman's hand and twisted it as hard as she could.
A fistful of her hair fell on the floor when she managed to get her hair out of the woman's tight grip.
"Ah…How dare you!!" The woman glared at Yu Mei. She was the Mayor's only child. When has she ever been treated like this? People always feared her and wagged their tales in front of her like a dog.
At this time the guests nearby had their attention on the commotion going on between the ladies.
"You want me toapologizee?" Yu Mei calmly looked at her. Her lower body was turning numb because of the unbearable pain.
The woman laughed derisively, ''Yes.''
"Very well then," Yu Mei picked up the bottle of champagne from the bar counter and uncorked it while aiming it at the woman.
There was a 'pop' sound before champagne sprayed straight at the woman's body drenching her from head to toe.
The woman stood there rooted to her spot, unable to comprehend what happened.
Gasps and murmurs shot through the crowd as Yu Mei emptied the contents of the entire bottle on her head.
As if it was not enough, she picked up another wine bottle and walked towards the woman.
Standing next to her, Yu Mei appeared short because of her figure but her aura did not diminish a bit.
"You can't afford my apology. Make do with my compensation instead," She said, pointing towards the small wet patch near her waist.
The onlookers: "_" Cough… Your compensation is more unaffordable.
With that, she poured the entire bottle of wine on the woman's head.
Keeping the bottle on the countertop, Yu Mei turned around to leave. Things could have gone smoothly if her period was not on the way, yet they had to choose a time like this to mess with her.
"Stop right there. Who allowed you to leave?" The woman glanced at the two girls who were looking at her in shock standing at the corner, "Go and call daddy. What are you still doing here?" Tears of fury and humiliation flowed down her eyes. This bitch….!
"Y-Yes…" One of the girls quickly left to call the mayor while the other grabbed Yu Mei's hand stopping her in place.
"Slap her until this white skin of hers is painted red," The woman ordered looking at Yu Mei's fair cheeks.
At this moment, all the onlookers understood what was going on here. It was just the Mayor's daughter showing off her authority from the very beginning.
But none of them were interested in interfering in the matter or standing up for Yu Mei.
According to them, since she couldn't protect herself, she should have just stayed silent and apologized. The matter would have been over.
"Bitch," The girl glared at her before raising her hand to slap her.
Before Yu Mei could resist, the pain in her abdomen intensified causing her to wrap an arm around her body.
'Dammit…' Her eyes closed instinctively.
It was too late to dodge.
She will pay it back a hundred folds later.
She mentally prepared herself for the first slap in both her lives.
'Crack'
