Chapter 468: Please Be More Respectful
Yuxin: [No, my sister’s.]
Chi Hailang did not reply but walked out. At the same time, that man had ended his phone call and walked into the restroom.
They walked past each other. Chi Hailang could distinctly smell the stench of cigarettes and alcohol on him, on top of the heavy perfume the man was wearing.
He suppressed his urge to stick his foot out to trip the man and walked to the corner of the corridor to wait for Lin Yuxin.
…
Chi Dali almost slipped when he walked out of the restroom.
They had finished a bottle of white wine. Apart from the few sips that Tang Xiaoge took every now and then, the rest of the bottle had been downed by Mu Xichen and Chi Dali.
When Mu Xichen saw Chi Dali stumbling out, he got up immediately and walked over to support the man.
Li Beinian had wanted to use the washroom too, but upon entering it, she saw that the ground was covered with puke.
She had no choice but to turn back, informed the others, and left the private room for the other restroom.
However, before she even got there, she heard the sound of some people arguing.
Among the voices, there was a familiar female voice. Li Beinian turned to look and immediately spotted Lin Yuxin.
There were a couple of people next to her.
Chi Hailang and two other men whom she didn’t know.
“The moment I see you, you speak nonsense. Who are you, exactly?” One of the men in a suit and leather shoes said arrogantly. “Look at how shabbily you’re dressed. How did you even get in here?”
“Enough, brother Wang Lei. Just take it that he didn’t say anything. There’s no need for a personal attack.” Lin Yuxin sounded angry as she continued, “Hailang is my boyfriend, please be more respectful!”
Wang Lei burst out laughing and mocked her, saying, “Boyfriend? You’re kidding me. You have such a miserly man as a boyfriend? The Lin family sets such low standards for a son-in-law?!”
“What are you saying!”
Chi Hailang almost started a fight but was held back by Lin Yuxin.
“Why, you’re looking for a fight?” Wang Lei straightened his suit and gave a scornful laugh. “Someone like you wants to beat me up? Do you have what it takes?”
Lin Yuxin paled as she hung on tightly to Chi Hailang. Then, turning red with anger, she shouted, “Don’t push your luck!”
“Miss Lin, is this really your boyfriend?” the other man said, looking a little sullen.
Lin Yuxin nodded and replied, ” We’re schoolmates.”
Wang Hao nodded, as though he suddenly understood. “He’s young indeed. Youngsters are like that, they like to smear other people. It’s not a good habit.”
Chi Hailang was livid. He was just about to react to this when the crisp and clear female voice was heard saying, “Although my brother is young, he has never done these things you mentioned. On the contrary, I’ve seen some lowlives wearing an outer cloak of high society, judging others by their own standards. It’s interesting.”
The men’s facial expression changed when they heard this.
They turned to look in the direction of the voice. The impressive sight of a tall figure in a light-colored dress greeted them.
Slim-waisted and leggy, the figure was svelte and well-proportioned.
Her long hair was draped over her shoulders like dark seaweed, her head was held high, and her face was fair and exquisite even without makeup.
And this face was a familiar one that was commonly seen throughout the nation these days. They knew who she was the moment they saw her.
Li Beinian walked toward them, a step at a time. Wang Lei looked stunned initially, but quickly, it turned into a look of undisguised coveting.
Wang Hao was also shocked and asked, “He’s your brother?”
Li Beinian was too popular recently. It was not just due to the trending of the Legend Of The Dragon Pearl. It was also because of the matter regarding Mu Donglin. It just added miles to her fame.
“So, he’s your brother.” Wang Lei loosened his grip and started to walk toward Li Beinian with a gentlemanly smile on his face. “What a coincidence. I’ve always wanted to be acquainted with Miss Li. Especially after I’ve heard how you’ve fallen out with the Eldest Young Master Mu and lost many resources as a result. So, have you been taking a break these days?”
He sighed. “But it’s true, whoever dares to promote you would just be going into a headlong clash with Eldest Young Master Mu. And an actress who doesn’t have someone promoting them would really end up in dire straits.”
