“Sister! This person is so mean!” Wei Ling said angrily, “Listen to what he said! He was implying that I have something with Mrs. Ji. How awful!” At most, he was jealous of Ji Yang to have a good sister-in-law like Shen Hanxing who could protect him. What other thoughts could he have? Even if Shen Hanxing was younger, she was his senior. Wei Ling should never dream of getting her.
Wei Ling got angrier as he thought about it. He clenched his fists and punched in the air twice. “What a piece of trash. I would have broken your bones today if we were alone!”
“Wei Ling, I said stop it!” Wei Xi’er stared at him with anger. “Zhuang Li is my boyfriend, what did you call him? A piece of trash? Have you lost your manners?”
“What manners? I wouldn’t behave this way if he hadn’t started it first, alright? ” Wei Ling widened his eyes in disbelief. He never expected Wei Xi’er to reprimand him before anyone else. He was her younger brother!
Wei Ling’s heart was filled with bitterness. He gritted his teeth and said angrily, “Fine, your boyfriend is the most important, right? As the old saying goes, a daughter gowned is a daughter gone! I don’t even bother about you anymore! If you don’t like me, then I’ll leave!” After saying that, he ran out with red eyes.
Wei Xi’er looked at Wei Ling and tried to say something, but she couldn’t make a sound. After a while, she clenched her fists and lowered her eyes.
“Xi’er, don’t be angry.” Zhuang Li’s eyes were filled with contempt. He took a step forward and hypocritically held Wei Xi’er’s hand. His voice was gentle as he said, “Wei Ling is still young. He can’t tell right from wrong. Some people are good at bewildering. Wei Yong is also…”
“Zhuang Li, I said enough.” Wei Xi’er closed her eyes and said in a deep voice, “Let’s stop this. I don’t want to listen to it anymore.”
Zhuang Li was stunned. His eyes darkened instantly. He looked a little dissatisfied. Did this woman just order him? Who gave her the courage? If it wasn’t for the fact that he had not gotten into the Wei family…
“Alright,” Zhuang Li held back his anger. He let go of her hand and said coldly, “If you don’t want to hear it, I will stop saying.”
“Sorry for what happened earlier.” Turning her head, Wei Xi’er acted coldly toward Shen Hanxing. Her attitude was distant and polite as she continued, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Ji.” Obviously, she was trying to avoid Shen Hanxing.
“It’s okay. I gotta go. Excuse me.” Shen Hanxing got out of the awkward situation. She nodded indifferently and turned around to leave. Not long after, Zhuang Li tailed her and said, “Miss Shen, can we talk?”
Shen Hanxing looked at Zhuang Li. She truly felt that he deserved a lesson. She looked at Zhuang Li with a faint smile, “Mr. Zhuang, what do you want to talk about?”
Zhuang Li lit a cigarette and looked at Shen Hanxing with a cold gaze. “Shen Hanxing, you’d better not meddle in other people’s affairs.” His eyes were filled with hostility. He said, “I believe you are not that kind of busybody.”
Shen Hanxing curled her red lips and said, “Is that so? I don’t have many hobbies, but I enjoy being a busybody. What are you going to do about that, Mr. Zhuang?”
“Bang!” Zhuang Li raised his leg and kicked the chair hard. The heavy chair was kicked far away. It only stopped when it hit the wall, making a loud noise.
“Shen Hanxing, I’m warning you. I’m not joking with you.” Zhuang Li warned fiercely. He shouted, “You better be tactful. Otherwise, don’t blame me!” His eyes were deep and dark. He was like a cold-blooded animal that was filled with terrifying ruthlessness.
“Zhuang Li, what are you afraid of?” Shen Hanxing did not even frown. She seemed to be able to see through all the filth in the world. She said, “Why are you afraid of me? Or rather, why are you afraid of what I would say to Wei Xi’er?” It was funny and ironic to her. She laughed, “How interesting. It turns out that Mr. Zhuang who thinks highly of himself is also afraid of something.”
Shen Hanxing remembered the first time she saw Zhuang Li. He was aloof and arrogant. The whole world should surrender to him as if he was the ruling emperor. But now, he was as cold as a demon who came from Hell.
