She wanted to see something on his face, but, well, a poker face is a poker face.
Hmph.
She was going to show him what kind of person his lotus-like fiancée truly was!
Yan Zhenzhen still wanted to put on a brave face, but when she saw Qiao An’s raised hand, the lesson she had just learned suddenly became crystal clear.
Her face still hurt, and if she were hit again, her face might just be ruined!
Forget it!
A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him!
Yan Zhenzhen comforted herself inwardly, but outwardly she still put on an extremely disdainful and arrogant air, “What else could there be to say, but how shamelessly you obstructed Brother Jingxi and Qingxin from getting their marriage certificate.”
“In what specific terms?”
Yan Zhenzhen thought carefully and realized…
Ji Qingxin hadn’t actually said anything particularly infuriating.
It was just that from the standpoint of a bystander, she felt indignation on her behalf and was particularly angry.
Moreover, her friend was bullied, and it just so happened that she had some relationship with Mu Jingxi, so she stormed over to give Qiao An trouble. This chapter is updated first at novelping.com.
She was certain that Mu Jingxi would not trouble her because of an outsider.
He would surely let her off the hook for the sake of her cousin.
Everything was planned perfectly, but she never expected that Mu Jingxi wouldn’t let her off the hook!
“I forgot.”
Yan Zhenzhen’s expression was stiff; how could she dare tell Qiao An that Ji Qingxin hadn’t said anything excessive at all, that it was all her own busybody meddling and taking offense on her behalf.
Unexpectedly, she took a massive fall on her first attempt.
“Forgot?” Qiao An didn’t believe her, the corners of her lips curling up in a shallow, mocking cold smile, “What a convenient excuse.”
Elegant hands raised up.
The guard lifted his hand, ready to slap down.
Yan Zhenzhen’s eyes shut tight, she cried out in fear, “Qingxin didn’t say anything!
She just said you deliberately jumped into the swimming pool to attract Brother Jingxi’s attention!”
Qiao An: “…”
Ji Qingxin wasn’t wrong; she did jump into the pool deliberately and indeed sought to catch Mu Jingxi’s attention to stop him from registering the marriage with Ji Qingxin.
There was no other reason but just to prevent Ji Qingxin from having things go her way.
However, what’s with this Yan Zhenzhen?
A few words from Ji Qingxin, and she could become so hot-headed, angry to the point of coming to make trouble for her and seeking revenge for Ji Qingxin.
Played like a fiddle—dead without even knowing how it happened.
Yan Zhenzhen’s face was swollen, her lips also cracked with blood trickling down, looking utterly disheveled.
Qiao An held her forehead and chuckled lightly, “I don’t know whether to laugh at you for being dumb or just plain stupid.”
Leaving those words behind, she got up and walked away.
Yan Zhenzhen felt insulted, “Don’t go too far!”
Stopping in her tracks, she turned around, Qiao An’s lips curved in a smile, “What, you want to continue?”
Continue?
What does that mean?
With a solemn face, Mu Jingxi spoke, “She’s willing to let you go, don’t insist on getting beaten.”
Yan Zhenzhen: “…”
Although Mu Jingxi’s words were sharp-tongued, they made sense.
Yan Zhenzhen wasn’t stupid enough to insist on getting beaten; with a cold huff, she turned and ran away.
“Don’t you dare leave!”
Qiao An had just walked a few steps when a childish voice came from behind her.
The corners of Qiao An’s lips twitched slightly; she turned around, “Kid, don’t mess with me.”
Mu Shaoxi’s chubby little face was tight, hands on his hips, standing like a little teapot, looking up at her with a posture no less formidable, “You hit my aunt; I’m going to tell my father to beat you up!”
“Hahaha…
That’s hilarious, calling your parents when you can’t win the fight yourself, just a kid being a kid, so naive!”
