Chapter 95 - It Was A Misunderstanding
Her friends who followed her were frightened when they saw Jingyi Wang's imposing aura. Firstly, they never knew that Jingyi Wang would treat her that way because they once believed that Jingyi Wang only wanted to get revenge that was why he took her away from her wedding.
What they did not expect was for it to turn out that other way round.
They quickly took a step back as if saying they were not part of Hong fei's fight with Xiao li.
Hong fei was stunned at how things quickly turned out to be. She reluctantly calmed down and spoke anxiously, "Brother Jingyi, you... you just called me woman?" as she spoke, tears fell fast from her eyes like stream.
"I don't associate myself with people who doesn't deserve my respect" his voice was firm and clear. His words were directed at Hong fei, but his gaze was fixed on Xiao li's face as he seemed to stare directly into her soul.
"Brother Jingyi Wang, I was only trying to make sure that Xiao li won't use and dump you. I only wanted to protect you from her" Hong fei's voice was not loud, but it was enough to pierce people's heart because of how soft it was.
Jingyi Wang heard her words and his lips curled into a sneer.
Protect?
Who was she trying to protect?
Him?
Haha, so interesting!
Jingyi Wang's strong and powerful arms wrapped around Xiao li's slim waist. His overbearing aura was so powerful that even those people that were looking could not breathe.
He lowered his head and whispered into her ears, "Mrs Wang doesn't even know how to protect herself in public. I think I will assign a bodyguard for you, in case you ever get into trouble again, I won't need to worry anymore"
Jingyi Wang spoke in a hushed tone in such a way that his voice was only audible to the two of them.
However, Xiao li was not stupid. She could tell that he was serious and he would get her a bodyguard and if she had a bodyguard, she would have no privacy.
"No, I don't want to have a body guard. I can protect myself. I don't need one" Xiao li shook her head as she spoke hurriedly.
Jingyi Wang sneered. His handsome appearance carried both angel and devilish features which made the onlookers stunned. He lowered his voice and murmured into Xiao li's ear, "We would talk about that when we arrive home"
From Hong fei's perspective, Jingyi Wang seemed to dote on Xiao li which made her looked at them with envy.
Xiao li's expression changed when she heard that they would talk about it when they arrived home. Her pale, long fingers gently carressed the man's powerful arms as her voice quivered as she spoke, "No, no, we don't need to talk about it at home. I can clearly protect myself if I'm in trouble. I simply don't need a body guard"
She pursed her lips and blinked her eyes making a puppy cute face.
Seeing this, Jingyi Wang's heart skipped a beat.
Xiao li resembled a spoiled child as she displayed her feminine side and pretended to be weak.
Jingyi Wang loved this side of her.
Since she was acting like this, Jingyi Wang couldn't bring himself to say no to her. She looked so pitiful and cute.
At that moment, Jingyi Wang's tone shifted back as his cold eyes ferociously glared at Hong fei.
"Brother Jingyi... I was only trying to..." she couldn't complete her words as they got stuck in her throat, refusing to come out. She could tell that from Jingyi Wang's appearance, he was clearly furious.
"I'm so surprised that Miss Hong has forgotten that the Hong family took a 12 billion loan from the back some weeks ago to help your business and the Wang family is acting as your guarantee. Don't tell me that the Hong family is trying to repay us by bullying the young mistress of Wang's family?" Jingyi Wang casually said those words in his superficial yet magnificent voice.
Hearing this, Hong fei was so shocked that she almost fainted. The Hong family financial crisis had only recently passed away. She did not know how the problem was solved.
Hong fei was already regretting her actions. She should have retreated earlier after Xiao li said some words to her, she shouldn't have gone further to slap her. She knew that she would be doomed if she provoked Jingyi Wang further.
At that moment, An Jun entered the store. He had just answered a phone call from Jingyi Wang not less than 7 minutes. He had never imagined that the CEO's woman would get slapped across the face in such a short period of time.
"What's going on?" An Jun saw the red, swollen side of Xiao li's face and noticed Jingyi Wang's murderous glare on him.
He was scared. He swallowed hard and softly asked, "Young master, what's the matter?"
Hearing this, Jingyi Wang's expression was dark, his eyes gleamed coldly. He gestured his chin at the few women and said, "Ask them"
An Jun turned around to look at the group of women as his cold gaze made him trembled.
"Were you the ones who hit her?" he cast his gently nature aside. His attitude made them realised that the situation was not as simple as they thought.
The other women were not stupid. They knew that they would get into trouble if they didn't defend themselves since they were not the ones who slapped Xiao li.
They pointed at Hong fei who was still in a shock. "It wasn't us. It was her"
At that moment, Hong fei trembled with fright after being ratted out. She had never expected Jingyi Wang to suddenly appear and back Xiao li up. This made her plan her escape as she approached Xiao li.
"Oh, miss Xiao, you saw that it was only a misunderstanding. I was just saying a few things out of anger, so please don't take it to heart"
Hong fei's manner changed too quickly. She moved closer to Xiao link and held her hand, "The matters with Miss Xiao and I are merely absurd speculations. There is no kind of enemity between us. We were just talking"
Xiao li was stunned at first before she returned to her calm self and took a step back before faintly lowering her gaze.
She quietly said, "Didn't Miss Hong said the other time that she would rip me if I don't leave Jingyi Wang. She even threatened me and I saw in her expression murderous gaze as if she was going to kill me. How do you expect me to believe that you were just saying those words without a meaning behind it?"
Hong fei's face flushed with fury when she heard Xiao li's words, but she didn't dare to reply. She had truly said that because she was angry.
Jingyi Wang fixed his gaze on Xiao li. He had never imagined that the frail woman he knew actually had a fighting spirit that reached the heavens.
This woman still had this trick up her sleeve?
He briefly glanced at Hong fei who was already drenched in sweat while her face was greatly displeased. He turned around and looked at An Jun.
An Jun did not know how else his boss was going to stir up trouble. He silently prayed in his heart for the Hong family that Jingyi Wang would not think of any ideas and would simply move the entire Hong family out of G. city.
Jingyi Wang suppressed the anger in his heart because he did not want to waste his thought on a person like her. He looked at Hong fei before with an extremely cold and disgusted expression.
"An Jun, I will leave this to you" Jingyi Wang turned around and instructed An Jun.
An Jun thoroughly understand this words. He knew Jingyi Wang's temper all too well.
"Miss Hong, the Huo Lai land is barren and it's produces scare, but it's the most suitable place to lose weight. I think it would be best for you to go there"
An Jun said, despite speaking in a very threatening manner, he still looked very kind.
When Hong fei heard this, she knew that he wanted to chase her away from G.city. She knew it was over for her as she fell to the ground. Tears falling from her face.
An Jun hurriedly lifted the person on the floor and said, "Miss Hong, are you going to leave on your own or do you want me to escort you out instead?"
