Chapter 382: Chapter 375: Yiran Shines, Part 4
Qi Hui bit her lip; todayâs situation was clearly devised by Luna, and she was just an executor. As a result, not only had she involved her own body, now she had to take responsibility for everything!
Qi Huiâs body trembled as she clenched her hands tightly, her gaze fixed on Leng Yichen. What she met was Leng Yichenâs eyes, cold and full of disdain. At this moment, Qi Hui truly wished none of this had happened. She regretted impulsively agreeing to Lunaâs request and getting involved with the Leng Familyâs mess. Perhaps, she could have gained some favor in Leng Yichenâs heart with her intelligence and competence, but now Leng Yichen probably never wanted to see her again.
Moreover, she had been touched by another man. Seeing Yu Binâs idiotic face, Qi Hui wished she could just smash her head and end it!
How could she fall into the hands of such a man!
"I..." Qi Hui began to speak with a trembling voice, seeing clearly the warning in Leng Lieweiâs eyes. If she wanted to continue living in this city peacefully, she must not defy Leng Lieweiâs wishes. Besides, her father was merely a minor official in a government office, with no significant power throughout his life. To truly go against the Leng Family was impossible.
If she took responsibility for this incident, perhaps Leng Liewei might compensate her in the future. However, if she exposed Luna, causing Leng Liewei public embarrassment, she would get nothing, and her future life would likely be difficult?
But!
Qi Hui looked at Leng Yichen, such an enchanting man. The reason she recklessly did all this was for him!
"I..." Qi Hui fell into silence, yet silence became the best form of acceptance.
Slap!
Old Qi slapped Qi Hui across the face; at that moment, apart from shame and anger, he felt nothing else. He couldnât understand when his once-proud daughter had become like this!
"Qi Hui! Youâve disappointed me greatly!" Old Qi could see that this matter was inevitably linked to Leng Lieweiâs new wife as well. The way he just spoke to Qi Hui clearly indicated that he wanted Qi Hui to take all the blame alone, to save face for his wife and the Leng Family.
Qi Hui clutched her face, feeling her world crumbling bit by bit. She had always been the object of her fatherâs pride, always portrayed the image of a calm and composed career woman, and now because of Bai Yiran, the image she maintained for years collapsed instantly.
"Bai Yiran!" Qi Hui shouted at Bai Yiran with her face covered, "Yes! Thatâs right! I put something in your glass, but now youâre standing there unscathed! In the end, itâs me who truly got hurt! Clearly, youâre the one who had someone call me, who had someone knock me out; otherwise, I wouldnât have been with that scumbag..."
"Who are you calling a scumbag?" As soon as Xu Juan heard someone insult her son, she became displeased, "Youâre the shameless whore!"
"Please have some respect!" Despite being disappointed in Qi Hui, Old Qi couldnât bear others insulting her as she was still his daughter.
"Have respect! She doesnât even respect herself, yet you expect others to respect her?"
Xu Juan had no other skills, but her mouth could infuriate anyone.
Old Qiâs face turned a deathly purple, speechless with pursed lips.
In the face of Qi Huiâs accusations, Bai Yiran appeared calm and indifferent, slightly shifting her body and pointing to the waitstaff behind her, she said, "You claim I sent someone to call you, so why donât you see who I sent? These people were all personally hired by you; which one of them wasnât interviewed by you?" Bai Yiran smiled, "Or are you saying you were just desperate, and after being caught, you want to drag me down with you? After all, the real action sounds inside were heard clearly by everyone out here."
