After Marrying the Officer
Chapter 1369 - 1368: Xia Chuyi’s Culinary Journey to Conquer the World (Extra 7)
"What, call the police?" Upon hearing this, the golden retriever’s father immediately said, "I didn’t do anything, why should they call the police?" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"Hey, you Asians are really too stingy!" the golden retriever’s father shouted.
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi sneered and said, "Your country is governed by the rule of law. If someone makes a mistake, naturally it should be handled by the police."
Xia Chuyi ignored the word "stingy" uttered by the golden retriever’s father, determined to call the police.
"We’re just following your country’s laws to handle the matter." Xia Chuyi said to the golden retriever’s father and Councilman William, with an attitude neither overbearing nor unduly humble.
For the golden retriever and their kind, even if Xia Chuyi and the others weren’t "stingy" and magnanimously accepted an apology and let the other side go, the other side would certainly not appreciate it, nor be grateful.
On the contrary, they would despise them even more for being "weak and easy to bully."
Such is human nature. Xia Chuyi, having studied in the United States, understood this better than anyone.
Xia Chuyi knew well that when we are looked down upon, the first thing we should do is respect ourselves.
Therefore, even if it was a small matter, Xia Chuyi had absolutely no intention of backing down.
Seeing Xia Chuyi’s determination, Councilman William was at a loss, with a face full of helplessness and speechlessness, he said to those around him, "Help Mrs. Huo call the police..."
"As for you, sir..." Councilman William glanced at the golden retriever’s father who wasn’t jumping in rage, unable to refrain from reminding him, "Your attitude should be better. If you can get forgiveness from Mr. and Mrs. Huo, the consequences won’t be too severe..."
Speaking, Councilman William’s gaze shifted to Huo Shiqian, hoping his attitude would be different from Xia Chuyi’s.
Seeing this situation, Xia Chuyi also turned her head to look at Huo Shiqian.
Honestly, Xia Chuyi quite believed in her husband, knowing he would stand by her side.
The golden retriever’s father finally realized that the couple he offended should have a significant background, and he was sure to hit a wall.
Therefore, the golden retriever’s father hurriedly said, "Sir, sorry, very sorry, I was blind and spoke wrongly, I apologize to you, I hope to gain your forgiveness."
"You see, our United States has helped China so much, can this matter be settled just like this?" This time, the golden retriever’s father surprisingly sounded quite serious and sincere.
Clearly, since the golden retriever’s father could come to the venue of the gourmet conference, he was likely one of the staff inside, also afraid the matter might affect him.
Seeing this, Councilman William also felt hopeful, promptly saying, "Yes, Mr. Huo, actually it was just a momentary lapse on his part, now he’s aware of his mistake, see?"
Everyone’s gaze immediately focused on Huo Shiqian.
The words of Councilman William and others were a mix of Chinese and English. Even a genius like little Huo Shiwu couldn’t understand too much.
Thus, like others, little Huo Shiwu looked at his father, waiting for his father’s reaction.
Seeing his son like this, Huo Shiqian gently patted his son, then calmly said to the golden retriever’s father, "Apologize to me?"
"The one you truly should apologize to is not me." Huo Shiqian’s expression was very calm, he glanced at his own son and said, "The person you should apologize to is him."
Huo Shiqian said this part in English to ensure the golden retriever’s father understood.
