Xue Rong’s words were stuck at the back of her throat as she looked at Xue Guorong in terror. “Dad, what happened? Is there something wrong with your legs?”
As she was speaking, she tried to help him up. However, with a fling of his arm, she was pushed down to the floor too.
Xue Guorong swallowed as he looked at the man in front of him in fear and nervousness. At last, he couldn’t help but call out, “M-Mr. Si!”
Mr. Si?
That was how everyone addressed him, but why was her dad’s voice trembling?
Taken aback, Xue Rong seemed to have thought of something immediately. Then, she looked up and stared at Si Zhengting in disbelief!
His last name is Si… He looks familiar…
Of course he looks familiar.
She had seen him before when she secretly attended the Si family’s banquet with her dad when she was young!
As she thought of this, she was reminded of Si Zhengting’s status. Immediately, her eyes widened as she looked at the person in front of her in disbelief. This man, this man… is actually Mr. Si? Mr. Si!!!
This revelation was so shocking that she became speechless instantly.
Next to them, Shi Haoyu could not wrap his head around what was going on. Puzzled, he looked at Xue Guorong and Xue Rong and frowned. He stepped forward. “Rongrong, Dad…”
Before he could finish speaking, Xue Guorong suddenly stood up and sent a blow right toward Shi Haoyu!
“Good-for-nothing! Hypocrite! You caused the downfall of our family! You caused the downfall of my Rongrong! You blinded her!” After that punch, Xue Guorong proceeded to give him a good beating viciously!
Instantly, everyone became silent. No one understood what was going on.
Why did a few words from Mr. Si overturn the entire situation?!
Hence, everyone maintained the odd silence and watched as Xue Guorong beat Shi Haoyu up. It was only when Shi Haoyu was begging him while lying on the floor that he let go of him. Thereafter, he turned around and looked at Si Zhengting.
“Mr. Si, even though I may have not achieved any meritorious deeds, I have worked very hard for the Imperial Group all these years. So please, forgive us just this once!”
After saying this, he looked down while facing Si Zhengting. “Mr. Si, I have spoiled my daughter since she was young, so she is very immature. Please don’t take her words and actions to heart.”
Si Zhengting’s gaze sharpened when he heard this. “Isn’t she 25 years old?”
Xue Guorong was taken aback.
Si Zhengting said nonchalantly, “Twenty-five is not a young age anymore.”
Xue Guorong bit his lips immediately. “Mr. Si…”
Si Zhengting glanced at Shi Haoyu, who had collapsed onto the floor, and then at Xue Rong, who was still staring at him in disbelief and trembling in shock. He pursed his lips and turned around to look at Zhuang Nainai.
Zhuang Nainai was still pregnant, so she would not be in favor of him blowing things up. Hence, he had wanted to just let this matter pass.
However…
There was a cold glint in Si Zhengting’s gaze. Just when he was planning to give them a serious punishment before letting this matter pass, Xue Rong seemed to have been triggered by something as she stood up from the ground suddenly!
Xue Rong must have really been terribly shocked. In college, she had always been overpowered by Zhuang Nainai. When she fell in love with Shi Haoyu, Shi Haoyu just so happened to like Zhuang Nainai. Initially, she had thought that after graduation, she would lead a decent life and rise above her. However, she had never thought that her current boyfriend would actually be… Mr. Si?!
