C1546 Too Low-key
Wang Feng followed Shen Xuyang and the father and son into the hotel for another round of wedding wine, leaving only Zhao Jianing by herself at the hotel entrance.0
Zhao Jianing felt like dying now that she was mocked and pointed at by passersby.
She wanted to stand up and point at Wang Feng's nose and yell, "Who do you think you are?" But she didn't dare to.
Let alone his father and brother trying to please this guy, even Shen Xuyang had to find this guy if he wanted to develop in the capital.
Wasn't he the boyfriend of his poor sister-in-law and cousin? How could he be so powerful?
Zhao Jianing could not figure it out, but no matter how much she tried, she could only silently accept the fact that their Zhao Family was nothing in that guy's eyes. Even if that guy humiliated her in this way, her father and brother would not even plead for her and would only allow her to lose face.
She regretted it. She hated it!
Zhao Jianing didn't know how long she knelt there for. It was so heavy that her legs went numb and her knees went soft. Suddenly, a person appeared in front of her.
Lin Xi, his poor sister-in-law's cousin.
"What are you doing here?" Zhao Jianing was infuriated. Her hatred could not be quelled. "Are you here to make fun of me?"
"Stop kneeling, get up."
Lin Xi helped Zhao Jianing up. Zhao Jianing had already remembered this from a long time ago. Since Lin Xi helped her up, she stood up quickly and looked at Lin Xi in puzzlement. "Did Mr Wang call you out?"
"No." Lin Xi said, "I was the one who wanted to come out."
"Why?" Zhao Jianing snorted and said, "Crying like a cat and showing fake mercy!"
"No, I just don't want you to have too much resentment in your heart. After all, you and your cousin will be family in the future." Lin Xi said, "I did it for my cousin. Otherwise, it has nothing to do with me even if you kneel for a long time."
Hearing Lin Xi's words, Zhao Jianing's resentment lessened.
She looked curiously at Lin Xi and asked slowly, "What is your relationship with that man?"
"Colleagues, and... He's my sworn brother. " Lin Xi paused for a moment. "I'm staying at his house."
"Hur hur, little lover, right?" Zhao Jianing's face was filled with scorn. "So what if you're a little lover? You're speaking in such a reserved manner. Who are you putting on an act for!"
"I wish I were his little lover, but I'm not." Lin Xi wasn't angry at all. She was very calm. "In his heart, there is only his wife and his true love, and I am only his adopted sister, a pure adopted sister."
Looking at Lin Xi's expression, Zhao Jianing suddenly felt that she had gone too far. She couldn't help but blurt out, "I'm sorry."
"I'm fine." Lin Xi smiled, "Brother Feng is actually a very easy person to get along with. You'll know after you ask your dad and brother." "I'll be going in first. I have to tell Brother Feng that it was I who told you to get up."
Zhao Jianing's heart was filled with mixed feelings as she watched Lin Xi walk away. It was a very unpleasant feeling.
She didn't know if she should call Lin Xi stupid or not. If she was Lin Xi, she would have been so arrogant with Wang Feng as her backer. How could she be so obscure and inconspicuous like Lin Xi?
This woman was too low-key. Otherwise, she wouldn't have misunderstood that the two of them were poor relatives that came to earn a living. Sigh!
"You're too soft-hearted." On the way back, Wang Feng shook his head helplessly, "I purposely made that girl suffer a bit more so that she wouldn't bully your cousin in the future."
"People's hearts are all made of flesh. I believe that she won't do that again." Lin Xi smiled and said, "Unless I'm mistaken."
