"I’m not, I didn’t, this..." The girl showed a distressed and panicked expression on her face, glancing at He Chen with a look for help.
Those slightly teary eyes looked truly captivating, as if they could speak. It’s hard to imagine anyone would not be moved by such eyes.
The eyes seed to be silently speaking, as if recounting endless grievances.
With such a look, any guy present would be moved and feel sorry, but unfortunately, she was destined to et two exceptions today.
One was Xu Ke from earlier, and the other was He Chen, who was comforting his sister.
He Chen is extrely rational, and his only weakness is his sister, He Qing. In his eyes, there are only two types of won: those with value and those without.
And in He Chen’s eyes, this girl typified the latter. Faced with a woman who had no value, especially one who bullied his sister, how could He Chen be moved? He even found her expression a bit nauseating.
He furrowed his brow and said without giving her any face, "If you want to speak, speak properly. Don’t give those coy looks, I don’t like it, it’s truly disgusting."
He Chen’s unreserved words froze the expression on the girl’s face, and even if she had thicker skin, facing such a scene, tears welled up in her eyes without her control.
"I wasn’t giving any looks, I just didn’t know what words to use for an explanation for a mont. You really misunderstood ." The girl covered her face with her hands, not letting others see her expression, speaking with a sobbing tone, as if she was really wronged and on the verge of tears.
In theory, with such a pretty girl crying, even if He Chen didn’t co to comfort her, he surely wouldn’t continue to pursue the matter.
And there was another young man standing beside her, who surely would co to comfort her, giving her a way out.
Admittedly, she had a beautiful thought; had it been soone else, this scene might actually play out, but too bad she faced He Chen.
And as for the guy standing next to her, since He Chen appeared, he hadn’t spoken a word, looking pale.
It was like he only realized at this mont exactly who he was facing, what kind of place he was standing in, what kind of occasion it was, and what his own identity was.
The thought of being sohow bewitched and saying such offensive words earlier made him wish ti could rewind so he could slap his senseless talking self.
But there is no dicine for regret; hindsight is eighty-twenty.
No one present picked up her words, and the girl gradually beca awkward as her cries grew weaker until she couldn’t cry any longer.
This scene made her feel like a ridiculous clown, performing on stage, but her audience was not cooperating; it was arguably the most embarrassing mont of her life.
"Are you done crying?"
Seeing the girl’s sobs diminish, He Chen spoke up.
"If you can’t continue crying, stop pretending to wail. It’s aningless; no one here will feel sorry for you. Also, your crying sounds so fake, anyone can tell you’re acting. I strongly suggest you take so acting lessons."
He Chen’s biting sarcasm successfully amused He Qing.
"Brother, how can you talk about people like that? Be careful, later no girl will want to date you." He Qing poked He Chen’s chest as she spoke.
"Don’t worry, your brother’s conditions are clear here. Even if you can’t find a boyfriend or get married, I won’t fail to find a wife." He Chen glanced at He Qing, teasingly.
"Oh, you’re so annoying, brother! Whycan’t you let win just once?" He Qing pouted.
"How should I let you win? Am I not speaking the truth?"
"Yes, yes, everything you say is right."
The brother and sister talked as if no one else was around, making the girl’s pretense unsustainable.
Xu Ke stood behind the siblings, watching them trade jabs, leaving the girl speechless, unable even to continue her act.
"Alright, since you can’t continue your performance, please leave the He Family’s banquet. From now on, you two are not welco at any of our events." He Chen issued the final ultimatum, looking at the two of them.
If earlier He Chen embarrassed them, they would rely be awkward, feeling humiliated. But now, He Chen’s words essentially told everyone in Ning City that the He Family didn’t welco them and advised anyone wanting to maintain good relations with them to weigh their own significance and see if they were able to oppose the He Family.
With one sentence, He Chen placed both families opposite the entirety of Ning City.
Unless your family is powerful enough to stand on equal ground with the He Family, otherwise you’d better asure if you could afford it.
With one sentence, He Chen kicked them out of this social circle, and sooner or later, both families would wither away because of it.
If their families knew that everything stemd from these two individuals, they would probably be devoured alive by their own family mbers.
This ti, the girl couldn’t keep up the pretense. She approached He Chen directly, intending to grab his sleeve, but He Chen dodged her.
"If you want to talk, talk. Don’t go touching ."
Faced with He Chen’s words, the girl quickly withdrew her hand, fearing that even a second’s delay would anger this young master.
She finally realized that this young master was different from anyone she had ever t before. He wasn’t soone she could easily control or asure by common standards.
"I know I’m wrong. I’m willing to apologize to Miss He and seek her forgiveness, just asking Young Master He to take back what was just said." The girl pleaded with her eyes at He Chen.
"I’m begging you, if my father finds out about this, he will kill . He definitely will kill . Saving a life is better than building a seven-tiered pagoda; just take back those words as a charitable deed, please?" This ti, the tears in the girl’s eyes were genuine, but still unable to move the He siblings.
"If we let you off so easily, doesn’t it an any random cat or dog could step on my head and flaunt their power?" He Qing tilted her head, mimicking the girl’s earlier attitude, with an innocent look.
"No, no, no one would dare to do that," the girl shook her head hastily at He Qing’s words.
"How could there be none? Aren’t you two ready examples?" He Qing laughed coldly.
"Stop wasting ti here; we won’t change our mind. You should leave." He Qing said coldly, keeping a stern face.
