As soon as Chen Qianqian finished speaking, she felt an ice-like gaze directed at her body like a sharp sword, making him feel a chill from head to toe, as if someone had thrown him into the ice. It was like a cave, and I was so cold that I felt cold all over.
Li Hanting's voice was cold, and he clearly didn't say a word. He just looked at her with dark eyes, but with an indescribable powerful aura that made people shudder.
After all, Mr. Chen is an old fox who hangs out in shopping malls, so he can naturally understand the situation at this moment.
He naturally knows a lot more about his daughter's character than others. His daughter has been pampered by her family since she was a child and has an arrogant and domineering personality.
But the whole family cherished her very much, so when Chen Qianqian came to him crying just now and said that he had been beaten, Mr. Chen was extremely angry and only wanted to find justice for his precious daughter. But now it seems that it is clear that It was her daughter who provoked others first.
Regardless of whether it is emotional or rational, his side is already in a weak state.
Thinking about the overall situation, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Li family is extremely powerful. Not only is he able to dominate the city with one hand, but with their family's influence, not only the famous people in Hong Kong City, but also people in the celebrity circle respect him.
When something like this happened, looking at Li Hanting's protective attitude towards Qiao Yunshu, we knew that she would definitely seek justice for her female companion today and would never push this matter aside easily.
Even though Mr. Chen has never dealt with Li Hanting face-to-face, you know from others how ruthless this man is. He acts decisively without being sloppy or merciless. They secretly call him Cold-faced Yama. .
If such a thoughtful and sophisticated man really makes up his mind to seek justice for his woman, not only will his precious daughter be in trouble, but even their family may be in an irreversible situation.
In just a few seconds, Mr. Chen had sorted out all the benefits in his mind. After weighing the importance, he made a decision simply.
He turned to Chen Qianqian, raised his hand and slapped her without hesitation, "Shut up! You have the nerve to say it! You were clearly the one who provoked me first."
"Snapped--!"
Mr. Chen did not hold back his force in the slap, and the environment of the banquet hall was extremely quiet, so the slap appeared particularly clear in the banquet hall of the outer hall, and even had an echo effect.
Chen Qianqian's face had been swollen by Qiao Yunshu just now, and Mr. Chen's slap also swollen the other side. Chen Qianqian was stunned in place with a red and swollen face. In addition, she was confused and desperate. His eyes and embarrassed state actually looked a bit pitiful.
Qiao Yunshu felt unhappy in every way. As expected, it was still what he said, there must be something hateful about poor people.
Chen Qianqian covered the side of her face that had been beaten just now, her eyes widened in disbelief, and she looked at her father who always doted on her. Her lips trembled and tears fell down, "Daddy, You actually hit me because of this woman? Why do you even have to protect her!"
Mr. Chen's face was serious and cold, and he scolded her, "Shut up. Since you did something wrong, you will be beaten. Why don't you apologize to Mr. Li quickly?"
Chen Qianqian's body trembled, and her friends, the rich ladies who were also hit by Qiao Yunshu, huddled aside like quails, not even daring to breathe out, for fear that the fire would accidentally burn them. She has also fallen into such a miserable state as Chen Qianqian is now.
Chen Qianqian cried harder, her tears soaking her already mottled makeup, making her even more mottled, so much so that she couldn't bear to look at it at first glance.
"I don't! Why should I apologize? I have never apologized to anyone in my whole life. It was obviously her who beat me, but you didn't help me seek justice, but you still stood by her side!"
After saying that, Chen Qianqian looked at Qiao Yunshu with resentful eyes. Her whole expression was ferocious and twisted, like a poisonous snake crawling out of the gutter. She said insidiously, "It's all you, you little bitch! Hu Meizi !Did you use any means to confuse Mr. Li and my dad?"
Even Qiao Yunshu couldn't help but have the urge to hold her forehead and sigh. Why is this Chen Qianqian so brainless? What does it mean to slander her and her father in public?
If she had such a stupid, useless daughter, she would have been pissed to death tens of millions of times.
Mr. Chen was obviously very angry by his daughter's words. His face turned red and his expression became even more furious. "What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't apologize today, then I will have to send you abroad. From now on You can take care of your tuition and living expenses yourself, and I’ll just pretend that I don’t have you as my daughter.”
The last sentence struck Chen Qianqian like a bolt from the blue, and a storm arose in her heart.
The father who usually doted on her to the heavens and gave her the stars but not the moon actually said that he wanted to sever the father-daughter relationship with her?
Chen Qianqian subconsciously opened her mouth and was about to look at Mr. Chen, but she met his extremely sharp and complicated eyes.
In the flash of lightning, Chen Qianqian seemed to have an enlightenment and suddenly woke up.
Only then did she realize how stupid her behavior had been.
She had clearly offended Li Hanting, but she still did not repent and acted arrogantly as if she had her own way of doing things.
With the strength of the Chen family, it is absolutely impossible to compete with the Li family. I am afraid that her father did this for the sake of the family's honor, so he could not treat her so harshly and let Li Hanting see her determination to educate her daughter.
At the same time, Chen Qianqian felt a sadness that was difficult to describe in words.
It turned out that no matter how much her father doted on her, in his mind, she was still not as important as the family's glory. Just to avoid offending Li Hanting, he slapped her hard in front of everyone and made her All face is lost.
At this time, Li Hanting spoke slowly and slowly, his voice still so calm and without any ups and downs, but he could hear from it the powerful means of a person standing at the top of power to kill and seize other people's lives.
"It seems to Mr. Chen that your daughter is not aware of her mistake. I remember that your family has a project cooperation with the Li Group. In this case, Mr. Chen should take time to discipline his daughter first. The cooperation is about Let’s put it away first so that Mr. Chen won’t have to worry about it.”
At first glance, this sentence may sound like it just caused the Chen family to lose an opportunity to cooperate on a project, but in fact it is not the case.
Everyone knows how rare an opportunity is in the business world, not to mention that it is a project cooperation with Ritchie Group. It is an excellent opportunity that the CEOs of other groups cannot get even if they come forward in person. But now, Chen Group But he had to lose this opportunity because the daughter of the powerful man made such a stupid mistake and offended Li Hanting.
Losing a project cooperation item, but offending Li Hanting was something unusual.
Everyone here is smart. In the eyes of adults, what is more important is always the benefits they can obtain.
No matter how friendly and cordial everyone seems to be on the surface, you don’t differentiate between me and I don’t differentiate between you, but once there is a dispute over interests, the ugliness of human nature will be fully revealed, and some people will do whatever it takes to tear them apart for the slightest benefit. The disguise of kindness on the surface reveals the true bestiality.
So now, in the face of such a situation, several family friends who had a good chat with Mr. Chen just now immediately showed their smart team.
They all retreated in unison, away from Mr. Chen and Chen Qianqian, for fear that their actions would make Li Hanting misunderstand that they were in the same group, so that his anger would be transferred to them and get angry.
There was even a boss whose daughter was beaten by Qiao Yunshu with a mop. He took the initiative to express his attitude, "Mr. Li, Miss Qiao is really sorry. It was my incompetence in discipline that allowed my unsatisfactory daughter to offend Miss Qiao. Xiaoxue, Why don’t you hurry up and apologize to Miss Qiao.”
The girl named Xiaoxue was obviously much smarter than Chen Qianqian. With Chen Qianqian's embarrassing experience just now, she did not dare to imitate him and act rashly. Instead, she walked up to Qiao Yunshu very honestly and bowed 90 degrees to him. Bowing, his tone sounded very sincere and pitiful, "I'm sorry, Miss Qiao, I was blind and ignorant, and I offended you just now. Please don't be so arrogant as me. Please forgive me this time."
Upon seeing this, several other rich ladies also understood and walked up to Qiao Yunshu, apologizing to her in unison, hoping that she could forgive them.
The attitude of several wealthy ladies was very sincere, and some even shed tears. They looked very pitiful.
But this look in Qiao Yunshu's eyes did not make any waves in his heart.
When this group of people mocked her like that just now, they didn't behave like this at all.
They are now apologizing to themselves, saying that they have realized their mistakes, rather than regretting offending Li Hanting's female companion.
Because their family background cannot offend them, they can only choose to apologize. In fact, they may not have much regret or apology in their hearts, and they may even be cursing themselves a thousand times in their hearts.
And Qiao Yunshu doesn't need an apology from this type of person.
Even if they did feel a little sorry, it would only be a little bit. Maybe they would forget it after a few minutes, and then the next time they meet a girl who is equally maverick, they will sneer at her and bully her in every possible way.
However, Qiao Yunshu didn't want to go into details with this group of people, because she had already vented her anger in the toilet just now.
So she nodded lightly, "I got it."
Several wealthy ladies looked at each other, not sure what he meant by these three words. They felt like they were forgiven, but they did not directly say that they had been forgiven. They did not dare to return to their elders just like that. I'm afraid that if I don't do well enough, I will be scolded by my elders for being stupid. It would be miserable if I was cut off from living expenses like Chen Qianqian.
Chen Qianqian's eyes filled with hatred poured in and she glanced at her former good friends.
He had agreed with her words in the bathroom just now, but now he was so spineless, standing in front of that hateful woman and groveling.
But she also knew that she had to apologize today.
If the Chen family really offended the Li family, it would be of no benefit at all. The life of a wealthy lady that she had been used to enjoying since she was a child would be gone forever.
Even her parents would blame her and blame all of this on her.
So Chen Qianqian could only endure the extremely heavy feeling of humiliation in her heart for the time being. She bit her lip and took a step forward. She bowed deeply to Li Hanting and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I was too willful and made you unhappy. Please be noble and please stop arguing with me for the sake of me being a woman."
Seeing his daughter behave like this, Mr. Chen felt a little more relieved. Then he looked at her with expectant eyes and looked at Li Hanting cautiously, hoping that he could say words of forgiveness and that his words about severing cooperation with the Chen family just now would not count.
But the facts disappointed the Chen family and his daughter. Not only did Li Hanting not say forgiveness as they expected, but his face even became colder and gloomier.
He sneered, a powerful pressure lingering all over his body, as if a dark cloud covered the sky above the banquet hall, making everyone breathless.
"Ms. Chen, what you offended is not that I have to apologize to anyone I offend. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"
Li Hanting actually wanted him to apologize to Qiao Yunshu?
The hatred in Chen Qianqian's heart surged to the sky, and she could hardly hold back the expression on her face. She wanted to rush forward and tear Qiao Yunshu's charming face to pieces.
But her father grabbed her hard from behind, and the severe pain reminded Chen Qianqian to do what Li Hanting said.
She gritted her teeth, almost breaking them, and bowed stiffly to Qiao Yunshu. There was not much emotion in her apology, "Miss Qiao, I'm sorry."
Qiao Yunshu stood there like a camellia covered with clear morning dew, her whole person was unparalleled in beauty.
She looks like someone who is easy to talk to and extremely soft-hearted, but she is not.
At this moment, Qiao Yunshu crossed her chest with her hands, glanced at Chen Qianqian with a half-smile, and uttered a few words from her red lips, "Miss Chen, the voice was too low to hear what I just said."
Chen Qianqian clenched her hands fiercely, and her sharp nails had pierced her palms. She took a deep breath and repeated loudly, "Miss Qiao, I'm sorry, please forgive me."
Qiao Yunshu reluctantly nodded, as before, "I know."
Mr. Chen once again looked at Li Hanting with expectant eyes, "Mr. Li, if you apologize, should we..."
Li Hanting was neither humble nor overbearing, "It's one thing for your daughter to apologize, but it's another thing for me to support my children."
