“Don’t call me Brother.” Yi Zheng stood beside Shi Man and made his position clear. The smile on his lips kept magnifying because of the way she called him just now.
Song Zhi suddenly paused. She was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in. “Brother Yi Zheng, I’m not slandering Shi Man. Don’t listen to her nonsense. If you don’t let me call you Brother, what should 1 call you? It’s only right that I call you Brother!”
She thought that Yi Zheng would at least leave her some dignity in front of so many people, but she did not expect him to be so heartless.
Yi Zheng stood opposite her and explained to her seriously, “The Yi family and the Song family are actually not very close. If 1 have to say, Aunt Shen from the Shi family has the best relationship with my mother. Moreover, Shi Man is already my legitimate fiancee. 1 won’t allow anyone to bully her under my name.”
Song Zhi stared at Yi Zheng in disbelief and was speechless for a long time.
In the past, she could still follow behind Yi Zheng and call him brother sweetly. Then, she could use his prestige to lord over others and become the princess of the school.
But now that their statuses were worlds apart, there was suddenly only that woman in his heart. Song Zhi could not understand how Shi Man could make Yi Zheng care for her willingly.
…..
Tears of grievance gathered in her eyes. In order to protect her last bit of dignity, before her tears fell, Song Zhi covered her mouth and ran into the garden in a panic, not wanting anyone to see her like this.
Chen Min stood awkwardly in the middle of the crowd and was baptized by everyone’s gazes. The girls who had helped her just now had long seen that the situation was not right and secretly retreated to the periphery. At this moment, they could no longer be seen.
She had tasted being isolated and helpless today. When she thought of how she had bragged about her relationship with Yi Zheng in front of everyone just now, her face turned from red to pale. One moment, she felt her face hurt, and the next moment, she felt her entire body turn cold.
Shi Man did not know what it meant to quit while she was ahead. She only knew that she had to return the favor. She would take revenge on Chen Min for bullying Su Tang just now.
She slowly walked forward and tugged at Chen Min’s dirty skirt. She sneered and said, “In order to prevent people from wanting to bite in the future, it’s better to make things clear here today. Do you still need us to compensate for your dress?”
Chen Min widened her eyes in fear. For the first time, she felt suffocating pressure from Shi Man. She did not want to show her fear in front of the crowd, but Shi Man’s aura was too strong, making it difficult for her to even stand firm.
“Do you want us to pay?” Shi Man asked again. This time, her voice was colder.
Chen Min hurriedly shook her head and muttered with a trembling mouth, “There’s no need to compensate. Can I… leave?”
“You want to leave?” Shi Man slowly let go of her skirt and looked past her at the crowd walking over and Song Zhi, who was at the end. She sneered. “Everyone is here to celebrate Auntie Lu’s birthday. Where are you going to?”
Chen Min inexplicably felt that she did not want to say the latter sentence because her fierce gaze just now was clearly saying, “Leave your life if you want to leave.” However, with a way out, Chen Min still nodded and said, “Yes, it’s Auntie Lu’s birthday. I’ll go look for Auntie Lu first!”
“What’s the matter?”
As they spoke, Lu Xiang and Shen Xian had already walked over with a group of noblewomen. They had long noticed the commotion outside through the glass in the living room. They had not come because Yi Zheng had not moved.
However, seeing that the situation was clear, Lu Xiang brought people over and held Shi Man’s hand in front of everyone. “My precious daughter-in-law, did someone bully you just now?”
Lu Xiang was obviously here to support Shi Man. Regardless of whether Shi Man could retaliate against this group of people, this was the Yi family. If Shi Man was bullied here, she would not have the face to see Shen Xian again.
Chen Min now completely understood how stupid she was just now. However, she was the one who started the matter. If she got off easily, the Chen family would probably be targeted by the Yi and Shi families in the future. At that time, she would not be the only one who would be affected, but the entire family would be implicated by her.
When she came back to her senses, she hurriedly wiped her tears and walked to Lu Xiang to apologize. “I’m sorry, Auntie Lu. 1 caused you trouble. 1 didn’t mean to target Shi Man.
I was wrong in this matter. Please don’t hold it against me, okay?”
Shen Xian raised her eyebrows and looked at Chen Min in surprise. She did not expect her to be so sensible. Her gaze landed on Song Zhi slightly. She remembered that Song Zhi seemed to have participated just now.
At this point, personal pride was no longer important. Since Lu Xiang and Yi Zheng had interfered in this matter, it could not be settled peacefully.
Song Zhi bit her lower lip in humiliation and slowly moved in front of everyone. She bowed deeply to Lu Xiang and said, “I’m sorry, Auntie Lu. I shouldn’t have sided with Chen Min without knowing the ins and outs of the matter just now. I’m sorry for affecting your birthday party..”
