Chapter 671 - 671 Bullying
671 Bullying
Perhaps it was because the sun above the sea was too hot, but Shen Hanxing felt her cheeks burning. She could not help but purse her lips and curl her fingers. It was an indescribable feeling. She felt like the bottom of her heart was warm and sweet, as if it was soaking in warm honey water. It was also like a sweet dream, making her feel a little intoxicated for a moment. Shen Hanxing didn’t know what a moving sight it was for others to see the corners of her eyes redden and the tenderness seeping out from the bottom of her pupils.
Lu Shaoyang felt Shen Hanxing’s tender gaze on Ji Yan and his heart ached for a moment, making him take two steps back with a pale face. Did she love Ji Yan that much? His heart seemed to be torn in half, along with his soul. Lu Shaoyang was holding Su Ling’s hand to begin with, so she felt it the moment he moved. Su Ling turned around and saw Lu Shaoyang staring right at Shen Hanxing, looking like he had just been dealt a huge blow. This made the anger rush straight to her head, such that she felt like she was going crazy! Why?! What right did she have! She was clearly the one who had married brother Shaoyang! But why did brother Shaoyang only have eyes for that sl*t, Shen Hanxing?! Would she never be able to be a match for that vixen, Shen Hanxing?!
In her extreme anger and jealousy, Su Ling suddenly took a step forward aggresively and stared straight at Ji Yan. She sneered coldly, “President Ji is truly a man of deep affection and loyalty. It’s so touching that he’ll be so angry just for a woman.” As she spoke, her gaze fell on Shen Hanxing and she screeched, “But does Mrs. Ji not have anything to say? Do you also think that President Ji’s words make sense? President Ji has already offended two companies with just a few words. Aren’t President Ji and Mrs. Ji too irrational?” Even if in Ji Yan’s eyes, the Lu Corporation and the Su family were just two ants that he did not have to fear, the Lu Corporation was developing rapidly. How could it be that Ji Yan was going to deal with Lu Corporation just because Lu Guo said a few unpleasant words? Even a rabbit would bite when cornered, let alone these living people!
“Su Ling, what nonsense are you talking about! Hurry up and come back!” Su Ling’s father’s expression changed and he shouted in anger! He didn’t expect Su Ling to be so muddle-headed. Ever since the engagement party, Su Ling’s father had started to doubt his decision. Because he trusted Lu Shaoyang and Su Ling was indeed not interested in business matters, he loved his daughter and wanted Su Ling to live an innocent and carefree life. But was this right or wrong? If he hadn’t doted on Su Ling so much, how would Su Ling have become so obsessed with love? Looking at the situation now, were the Lu family and Lu Shaoyang really reliable? Su Ling was the daughter of the Su family, but what was Su Ling doing in front of Ji Yan? She did not hesitate to tie the Su and Lu families together and get them to face such a behemoth like the Ji Corporation! Wasn’t there anything else in Su Ling’s mind, other than love?
Su Ling’s father began to doubt himself. He was furious, but he had to suppress his anger. He smiled apolegetically and said, “President Ji, Mrs. Ji, Su Ling has been raised by me to be a little naive and impulsive. She said something wrong, so I hope the two of you won’t hold it against her.”
“I didn’t say anything wrong. Did I say anything wrong?” Su Ling was currently in a fit of anger. Now that she saw her father disparaging her, her eyes widened in disbelief and she said angrily, “Don’t tell me the Ji Corporation has the right to arrogantly bully others just because they are rich?”
Shen Hanxing couldn’t help but chuckle when she heard that. Su Ling immediately became like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on. She scolded shrilly, “What are you laughing at?! What’s so funny! Shut up! Don’t laugh!”
“I’m laughing at Miss Su’s unreasonable words.” Shen Hanxing’s lips curled into a smile. She spread out her hands and asked Su Ling elegantly, “Why do you think my Mr. Ji goes to work dilligently every day and works so hard? If you don’t know, why don’t you ask your father?” The more Shen Hanxing thought about it, the funnier she found it. “Putting the many other things aside, isn’t the fundamental reason for working hard so that your family can live a good life and not be bullied?”
“You…” Su Ling was stunned.
“What about me? Did I say something wrong? You also said that the Ji Corporation is rich and powerful, and that is all because of my Mr. Ji’s hard work. We are rich and powerful because of our own hard work, so what’s wrong with bullying others?”
