You Were Made to Be Cannon Fodder, but Ended Up a Winner in Life?

Chapter 14: Humble Love 14:

Zhang Ya mulled over her thoughts, and gradually, the paleness on her face subsided, returning to a more normal color. She was convinced she was right—Chen Nuo was just trying to scare her to gain control in their relationship.

Dream on!!

“If you think you can get on top of me, you can forget it!!” Zhang Ya gritted her teeth, her face twisted with rage.

She believed she had endured great suffering by being with Chen Nuo.

Why should he have the upper hand now?

Who was going to make up for all her grievances?

Growl!~

As Zhang Ya’s stomach growled in hunger, she suddenly became aware of her situation. She hadn’t eaten lunch, and now it was already afternoon.

“Let’s go home. I remember there’s some money in the drawer.”

Without a second thought, Zhang Ya decided to return to Chen Nuo’s house.

As for Chen Nuo’s claim that he had changed the locks and she couldn’t get in, Zhang Ya didn’t believe it.

She knew how deeply Chen Nuo loved her.

All she had to do was beckon, and he would give her his heart.

Convinced of this, Zhang Ya prepared to hail a cab.

However, as soon as she raised her arm, she froze in place.

She realized she didn’t have a single cent on her.

She couldn’t even afford a bus fare, let alone a cab ride.

At this moment, Zhang Ya regretted her extravagant spending over the past few days.

The moment her family transferred her 10,000 yuan, she had upgraded her room to a luxury suite and gone on a shopping spree for new clothes.

It felt great to spend money at the time, but now…

“Chen Nuo, this time I’ll make you beg for forgiveness on your knees if you want to marry me!!”

Seething with rage, Zhang Ya gritted her teeth, muttered under her breath, and began the long walk to Chen Nuo’s home.

After walking for more than half an hour, she finally arrived at the entrance of the community.

By now, her legs felt like lead, aching with every step.

Her resentment toward Chen Nuo grew so intense it felt tangible.

After catching her breath, Zhang Ya prepared to enter the gated community.

But as she approached the entrance, the security guards stopped her.

The residential area was a high-end estate in the provincial capital, with strict access control and tall, muscular security personnel.

“Why are you stopping me? I’m a resident here! Get out of my way, you mud-legged peasants.”

Already fuming, Zhang Ya erupted in anger as the guards blocked her path.

She glared at them with contempt and even covered her nose, as if afraid their scent would reach her.

In reality, the guards were dressed in clean, tidy uniforms.

“I’m sorry, miss. Mr. Chen specifically informed us that you are no longer a resident here due to your breakup, so we cannot let you enter the community.”

Despite Zhang Ya’s condescending gesture, the head guard spoke calmly, though his eyes were filled with scorn.

Indeed, they might be “mud-legged,” but they were still better than a woman who clung to a man without realizing it!

“What are you talking about? I’m still a resident here! Move aside, I need to go home!!”

Zhang Ya’s rage intensified upon hearing the guard’s words, especially when she saw the scorn in his eyes.

“I’m sorry, miss, but you cannot enter.”

The head guard maintained a firm stance.

“Get out of my way!!”

Ignoring him, Zhang Ya shoved the guard and tried to force her way in.

But after just a few steps, the guards lifted her off the ground and carried her out, dumping her on the opposite side of the street.

“This is your first warning. If you attempt to enter again, we will call the police.”

The head guard’s gaze was cold as he spoke to Zhang Ya, who lay sprawled on the ground, disheveled and humiliated.

He then turned and led his team back to the entrance, though they kept glancing her way.

“That was satisfying!!”

“Finally, we can deal with her.”

“She never belonged in this community without Mr. Chen.”

“Our residents are well-mannered. She acted so superior around us.”

“Now look at her. She’s lost it all.”

The guards spoke excitedly amongst themselves, venting their frustration.

They had long despised Zhang Ya, who treated them with nothing but disdain, as if they were beneath her.

Finally being able to deal with her felt incredibly vindicating.

“Enough chatter.”

The head guard waved them off but couldn’t hide his own satisfaction.

…

Lying on the ground, Zhang Ya felt every ache and pain from her rough treatment.

The guards had shown no mercy when they threw her.

Physically, she was in pain, but her humiliation stung even more deeply.

She, who had always seen herself as a prestigious resident, had been treated like this by the guards she despised!

How dare they!!

Zhang Ya glared at the guards with hatred.

Yet beneath her fury was a swelling tide of unease.

She really couldn’t get into the community anymore.

Chen Nuo hadn’t been lying.

If that was true, then the lawyer’s notice…

A shiver of fear ran down Zhang Ya’s spine.

She knew exactly how much money she had taken from Chen Nuo over the years.

Tens of thousands.

A sum that had once seemed trivial but now loomed like a mountain of debt.

“I’ll call Chen Nuo. He can’t treat me like this!! I’ve endured so much being with him!!”

Clenching her teeth, Zhang Ya fumbled for her phone to call Chen Nuo.

But before she could dial, her phone rang first.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up.
