Chapter 43: Chapter 43 Face Slap

Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Zixi calmly savored the rich taste of the red wine.

Of course, it was Young Master He, it could only be Young Master He.

Su Zixi could almost imagine the lazy, faint smile on Young Master He’s face…

Maybe it was because of the wine, but she suddenly felt a bit flushed.

“Young Master He… He Jingyao?” Ning Yichen sneered, his hands involuntarily clenching.

Although the Ning Family’s foundation was in the capital, Yangdong City, they had many interactions with the famous He Family. Therefore, he knew quite a bit about He Jingyao.

That man had shown a maturity and meticulousness far beyond his peers since he was a teenager. His father praised him endlessly and always attempted to collaborate with the He Family. After all, the Ning Family wanted to run for the next President, and financial support was essential.

That day, when Lianxi mentioned that He Jingyao might be unfavorable to her, he didn’t think much of it. But now, He Jingyao clearly knew it was his reserved wine and still used this way to openly shame him.

Even though he usually had a mild temper, he couldn’t tolerate it!

Su Zixi looked at the various expressions of anger or fear on their faces and suddenly smiled.

“How would I know?” She didn’t blink. “I’m not familiar with Young Master He. Even if he did this, it has nothing to do with me.”

Su Guo’an frowned: “Zhixi, what is really going on?”

“I said I don’t know.” Su Zixi raised an eyebrow. “Didn’t Ning Yichen say it was deliberate against him? The other party might know about our estranged relationship, so they sent it to me on purpose to have this shaming effect. I’m nothing more than a prop.”

Ning Yichen frowned slightly. Su Zixi’s words made some sense.

Lin Shuyue got angry seeing how indifferent Su Zixi was: “If it has nothing to do with you, why are you drinking this wine?”

“Since it was specially sent to me, why shouldn’t I drink it?” Su Zixi said curiously, “I heard this wine is very expensive! It’s really quite delicious.”

With that, she picked up her glass and took another sip of the red wine, nearly infuriating Lin Shuyue to death.

Su Lianxi kept staring at her deeply, as if trying to determine whether she was lying.

She never feared Su Zixi, not even about what she might say in front of Ning Yichen. But if Young Master He wanted to back her up, things could get tricky.

However, it seemed this woman didn’t have that much ability.

Su Lianxi subconsciously agreed with Su Zixi’s statement, or perhaps, she preferred to believe it.

Su Zixi smiled, “Do you want a drink? There’s still a lot left in this bottle; I can’t finish it by myself.”

“No need.” Su Lianxi glared at her fiercely. “Drink it yourself!”

Ning Yichen held her hand, slightly apologetic, “Lianxi, I’m sorry.”

Su Lianxi forced a smile, “It’s okay, I know it’s not your fault.”

But she felt a bit uneasy inside.

She thought that being with Ning Yichen, no one in Yanzhou City would dare trouble her anymore. Who knew that today, she would be shamed in front of Su Zixi? Ning Yichen wasn’t as omnipotent as she had imagined. She felt very disappointed.

Ning Yichen could obviously see that Su Lianxi was very upset.

But the reason he backed down wasn’t because his status was inferior to the other party, it was because of the Ning Family’s ways. So he couldn’t be forceful or overbearing.

A temporary concession didn’t mean he was really easy to bully, and it didn’t mean he would let it go.

But how could he explain this to Su Lianxi?
