Love Gambit: The Untouchable Tycoon is So Dangerous-Chapter 331 - 332: Just Endure Being Bullied?
Xiahou Chunyi swept his gaze over everyone present and finally looked at Xing Chen, sighing, "Luckily, you’re not interested, or there would be no place for me as the eldest brother."
Of course, these words were not meant to be sarcastic toward Xing Chen, but rather to see if the Lou Family would be even more reluctant to let go of Xing Chen after knowing this!
As the main subject of this conversation, Xing Chen roughly guessed Xiahou Chunyi’s intention.
He frowned, a hint of displeasure sinking into his dark eyes.
Originally, Lou Zhaonian was already eyeing him with hostility, and now that Xiahou Chunyi said such things, wouldn’t it only deepen Lou Zhaonian’s obsession with him?
"Let’s eat, Xiangsi must be hungry." Ending the previous topic directly, Xing Chen pulled Ran Xiangsi up and headed to the dining room.
Even though this was Xiahou Chunyi’s estate, Xing Chen clearly had a stronger presence.
Xiahou Chunyi noticed his slight displeasure and didn’t continue. Instead, he smiled and followed, "Everyone, please take your seats. Dinner will start soon."
Only then did everyone proceed to take their seats.
If they were going to discuss matters, it would be best to do so while eating.
They were having authentic Western cuisine, and everyone started off quite quietly.
It wasn’t until Xing Chen pushed the steak he had cut in front of Ran Xiangsi that this gentle action made Lou Xinyu grip her fork tightly once again!
She was sitting to the left of Xing Chen and spoke bitterly, "Brother William, surely you know what happened last night? How could you still..."
"Shut up!" Xing Chen was the first to speak, cutting off Lou Xinyu’s words!
He hadn’t expected Lou Xinyu to know about this incident.
"Why should I shut up? It was her own shameless behavior, she..."
Lou Xinyu’s words were cut short halfway, turning into a splash of water poured all over her face!
Everyone was stunned, their eyes falling on Ran Xiangsi.
Yes, it was Ran Xiangsi who splashed that glass of water...
She still held the empty glass, her expression indifferent, completely ignoring the stares from everyone, and said coldly, "Is this the upbringing of the Lou family’s eldest miss?"
Originally, Lou Zhaonian was about to scold Lou Xinyu for her words, but when he saw Ran Xiangsi strike first, he couldn’t tolerate his granddaughter being bullied.
Taking advantage of Xiahou Chunyi’s presence, he decided to clear things up!
"The Lou family’s upbringing is not for you to question!" Lou Zhaonian emphasized his tone and waved to signal a servant to hand Lou Xinyu some tissues.
Lou Xinyu wiped her face while beginning to sob, "Grandpa, look! My clothes are soaked!"
No one expected that, contrary to his usual behavior, Lou Zhaonian started scolding Lou Xinyu, "Why are you crying? Are you supposed to endure being bullied like this? Is this what Grandpa taught you?"
"But..." Lou Xinyu pouted, looked at Lou Zhaonian with grievance, then turned to glare at Ran Xiangsi and picked up the water glass in front of her, intending to splash it back!
However, her hand was too slow. Perceiving her move, Xing Chen raised his hand slightly, easily pushing Lou Xinyu away with little effort!
Lou Xinyu hadn’t expected Xing Chen to stop her, causing her to lose balance and fall hard onto the ground!
The water glass in her hand also emptied onto herself, making her look utterly disheveled...
"Ah! It hurts..." Lou Xinyu instinctively cried out, her voice overly exaggerated.
Yet Xing Chen didn’t even glance at her, remaining composed as he sat beside Ran Xiangsi, softly advising her, "Eat more."
Ran Xiangsi had barely eaten since yesterday.
