Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Since you don’t welcome us, let’s leave!” Huangfu Ruiling said lightly, “Li San, let’s go.”
Li San didn’t say anything. He returned to Huangfu Ruiling’s back and pushed his wheelchair to leave. As for Ye Leng’an, he naturally couldn’t stay any longer.
“Young Master Huangfu, this is all a misunderstanding.”
Seeing that Huangfu Ruiling was about to leave, Old Master Shu was filled with regret. At this moment, he did not care about his face and quickly stopped him. “It was my mistake for wrongly accusing your female companion without getting the facts straight. Speaking of which, this whole matter is Yaqi’s fault.
I’ll have Yaqi apologize to your female companion now.”
He was a flexible person. Since Young Master Huangfu wanted to protect that girl, he was willing to let his granddaughter come out and apologize. After all, offending the Huangfu family was more important than offending his granddaughter.
“Grandfather!” Shu Yaqi couldn’t believe her ears. Her grandfather, who had just said that he would seek justice for her, was now asking her to apologize to a woman who had nothing and could only enter this banquet by relying on a man.
If she really apologized here today, how could she continue to face others in the future? She would definitely become the joke of the entire upper-class society. In the future, this matter would also become a stain on her. Those girlfriends would definitely use this matter to mock her from time to time. “Shut up.” Old Master Shu glared fiercely at Shu Yaqi. “It’s all your fault. You actually dare to refute now.”
Under the suppression of Old Master Shu, Shu Yaqi could only force down the unwillingness in her heart, lowering her head and not speaking. However, deep down in her heart, she probably already wanted to cut Ye Leng’an into a thousand pieces.
“Old Master Shu, you really change quickly!” Ye Leng’an had a mocking smile on her face. “Just now, you still looked like you wanted to eat me up. Now, you want your granddaughter to apologize to me immediately. The speed at which your expression changed really caught me off guard!”
“Little girl, what happened just now was the fault of our Shu family.” Old Master Shu said slowly, “I didn’t understand the situation and came to denounce you. However, I was misled by Yaqi, so I had a misunderstanding. Are you going to argue with an old man like me over this?”
“Old Master Shu is indeed flexible and eloquent!” Ye Leng’an sneered and said, “Unfortunately, I won’t be restricted by morality. Everyone had seen what just happened. Therefore, even if you apologize now, I won’t choose to forgive.”
Seeing Ye Leng’an’s expression, a cold glint flashed through Old Master Shut s eyes. The smile on his face also became a little more sinister. “Little girl, you’re young and impetuous. I can understand. However, it is not as simple as you imagine to survive in this society. Today, you can rely on Young Master Huangfu’s influence to spout nonsense against our Shu family. But have you thought about the future?”
The reason why he was willing to apologize was not because he felt that he was wrong, but because he did not want to offend the Huangfu family. The girl in
front of him was too arrogant. He had already offered the olive branch, but she was still unwilling to take it. Did she really think that Young Master Huangfu would protect her forever? She didn’t even know her status, and she still dared to confront him like this.
“Hehe, Old Master Shu, do you think that I’m living off of Huangfu Ruiling?” Ye Leng’an found it funny .”Only an old-fashioned person like you would think that a woman must rely on a man to survive. Unfortunately, I’m not that kind of person. The reason why I dare to oppose you here today is not because of Huangfu Ruiling, but because I am me.”
As she spoke, Ye Leng’an’s aura was unleashed, and that powerful pressure directly pressed down on Old Master Shu.
Old Master Shu had been threatening Ye Leng’an, but he suddenly felt a strong pressure. He felt as if a huge burden was pressing down on him, almost making him unable to breathe.
He wanted to look away. He didn’t even dare to look Ye Leng’an in the eye. She was clearly just a little girl, but facing her gave him unprecedented pressure..
