My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 573 - : 573, silly son
Chapter 573: 573, silly son
She took a look around.
There were so many people watching the spectacle, but not a single person was willing to help.
“Sir, I urge you to let go of me immediately!”
“Right now? Hahaha.” The man broke into uncontrollable laughter, “Who do you think you are? Are you ordering me around? You dirty slut, having the chance to drink with me is an honour, yet you show such resistance. Do you not care about my feelings? Do you even know who I am, huh?”
“Who?” Bai Ruwei gritted her teeth, “I am Huo Zhexi’s girlfriend, you know who he is, right?”
“Who?”
“Huo Zhexi, the third young master of the Huo Family of Nancheng. You must know who they are, right?”
Bai Ruwei thought that if she mentioned the Huo Family, this man might be intimidated and leave her alone.
Unexpectedly…
“Did you just say Huo Zhexi? Hahaha, that’s hilarious. How come I’ve never heard anyone from the Huo Family mention that Zhexi has a girlfriend? Besides, do you really think someone like Zhexi would take an interest in you? With your looks and figure… tsk tsk… seems like you are trying to gild the lily. Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror? Do you think you, a toad, can eat swan meat?”
Seeing Bai Ruwei’s grim expression, he continued to insult her, “I’ve seen many women like you. You think that because you are somewhat attractive, you can marry into a noble family, right? You’re just a vain and despicable leech! If you want money, I can give it to you. There’s no difference between keeping company with Zhexi or me. If you perform well, I might even take you under my wing. What do you say, come on.”
After saying that, he immediately made a move, trying to undeterred forcibly pull her.
Bai Ruwei struggled violently, gripping the doorframe tightly. When the man finally loosened his grip a little, she turned around and dashed away.
As the man’s fatty palm reached out to grab her arm again, Bai Ruwei was terrified. Unable to hold back, she turned to face him and delivered a hard slap across his face.
With a loud smack, the sound echoed throughout the corridor.
The man stood still, stunned.
This slap seemed to have woken him from his drunken stupor.
All eyes from the surrounding crowd were fixed on his face.
Muffled laughter could even be faintly heard.
The man’s twisted face revealed his embarrassment. He retaliated with an even louder slap, “You bloody bitch, refusing my toast means you will have to drink a forfeit. How dare you hit me?”
Bai Ruwei let out a scream as her demure body was knocked to the floor.
She was wearing the restaurant’s uniform, a high-collared, sleeveless qipao with a high slit. When she fell, the qipao rode up on her, revealing her legs despite she wore leggings underneath.
Under the light, it was quite a sight to anyone’s eyes.
Before she could even get back up, the man was already descending on her, landing a vicious kick to her body, “You bloody bitch, taking liberties because I’ve been kind to you? Look at what you’re wearing, all provocatively dressed. Do you think if you spread your legs widely, serving men well, you could climb your way up into high society? Shameless whore, well if that’s what you think, then you’re dreaming!”
Some people came forward to pull the man off her. Some busied themselves with taking pictures on their phones, while others simply enjoyed the spectacle.
Accompanied by Bai Ruwei’s cries, the place was filled with chaos and commotion.

Inside the private room on this side…
The sudden commotion from outside prompted a frown from old Mr. Huo, “What’s going on? Why is it so noisy outside?”
“I’ll check it out.”
Huo Qinyu quickly left the room only to return shortly, “It’s nothing, just someone who drank too much and is causing a ruckus.”
Old Mrs. Huo nodded, “It’s the New Year, a time for celebration, drinking is permissible, but not to excess. It’s disgraceful to lose one’s composure and become the butt of people’s jokes. Ashen.”
At the mention of his name, Huo Jingshen raised his head, “Grandma.”
“You still have to accompany Wanwan back home later. Don’t drink now, and remember to limit yourself later in the evening.”
“Understood.”
The speaker was unaware, but the listener took it to heart.
Xing Yuyun, who was sitting close by, furrowed his eyebrows, picked up his wine glass, and downed it in one gulp.

Bai Ruwei dialed Huo Zhexi’s number for the umpteenth time on her phone.
“I’m sorry. The number you dialed cannot be reached at this moment. Please try again later.”
The sound of repeating mechanical female voice came through the speaker.
Why isn’t he answering his phone?
Is it because she had not responded to his messages that he had given up as well?
But if that was true, why did he chase after her just now?
Can it be that because there were people from the Huo family present, he didn’t dare to take her call?
“See!”
The man’s smug voice was heard again, “She even lied about being the girlfriend of the Huo family’s third young master, that’s just ridiculous. You can be ambitious, but you must know your limits. Can you seriously think that the Huo family would accept a waitress as their daughter-in-law?”
The manager beside them kept apologizing, “I’m really sorry, Mr. Zhou, it’s all our fault. Xiaowei, hurry up and apologize to Mr. Zhou.”
Bai Ruwei spoke up sadly, “Manager, it was him who touched me first…”
“During the New Year, you, being a waitress, quarreled with a customer and caused such a terrible situation, do you still think you’re right?” The manager cut her off, “If you don’t apologize, then just fuck off right now! And don’t even think about getting this month’s salary!”
Upon hearing this, Bai Ruwei couldn’t help but yell, “Manager, you can’t treat me like this!”
“Why can’t I? You disrespected a customer, you filled the restaurant with negativity and you affected the other guests. The business today is completely ruined because of you, and you still want your salary? You should be giving me money, you know?”
Done speaking, the manager appealed to the supervisor nearby, “Kick her out right away, deduct all her previous wages, don’t give her a penny!”
“Manager, I have been working here since the winter vacation, on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, I haven’t taken a day off. Manager, I beg you, I haven’t settled my living expenses for next term yet, you can’t just deduct my salary like this…”
“What’s that got to do with me? Get out of here! Don’t disrupt my business.”
The manager was very impatient, he wanted to leave but Bai Ruwei grabbed his arm, pleading bitterly, “Manager! I beg you, you can’t treat me like this…”
“Get the security to throw her out! Security, security!”
The manager hysterically yelled.
…
Here, Su Wanwan was holding Huo Jingshen’s hand, ready to leave with all other elders.
As soon as they reached the staircase, they could hear a commotion echoing from the corridor nearby.
A soft and feeble female voice sounded familiar.
Before Su Wanwan could recognize it, Huo Zhexi had already rushed over.
“Zhexi!”
Mingzhu couldn’t control her expression out of anger.
What an ungrateful fool of a son!
“What’s going on?”
The repeated disturbances had visibly angered Old Master Huo.
They just came out for a meal, and this good-for-nothing grandson kept creating a fuss. He is not stable at all.
“If she is really your girlfriend, bring her home for us to see. If you have broken up, then break up cleanly. Don’t cause such a ruckus over and over!”
“Dad, it’s my fault, rest assured, I’ll deal with it today.” Mingzhu said with a warm smile, “Dad, mom, aunt, you go home first, Juncheng and I will go and take a look.”
Su Wanwan also wanted to follow to watch the excitement, but Huo Jingshen tightened his hold on her hand and pulled her away.
No chance to watch any more.

“Xiaowei!”
Huo Zhexi rushed over, pushed the door open, and saw Bai Ruwei standing there.
The hairstyle that she had initially tidied up was now quite messy, with strands of hair dangling beside her swollen cheeks, corners of her mouth bleeding, and her eyes were tearful. It was clear she had been bullied. The sight filled Huo Zhexi with rage and anger causing his voice to tremble, “Xiaowei, who hit you?”
“Zhexi.” Bai Ruwei’s crying wouldn’t stop.
Huo Zhexi looked at a man in a suit beside him, reached out and grabbed his collar, “Did you hit my girlfriend? As a man, you dare to hit a woman? Are you even a man, huh!”
He didn’t know the man, but the man recognized him.
Especially when he saw Huo Juncheng and his wife coming up behind him, he immediately shouted, “Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo, look at your good son! He attacked his elder on New Year’s, this is absolutely outrageous!”
“You dare to shout?” Huo Zhexi, who’s never known for his good temper, heard him and immediately landed a punch on his face.
The man shouted “Ouch”, fell back onto a table, and everything, person and table inclusive, tumbled over onto the floor.

10 minutes later.
Everyone moved to the resting room.
Huo Juncheng spoke sternly, “Zhexi, apologize to Uncle Zhou.”
Huo Zhexi was indignant, “Why should I apologize? He bullied Xiaowei first.”
Zhou Tingzheng quickly played the victim, “Nonsense, it was that bitch who hit first!”
“Damn you, can you really get hit by a woman? I swear today I’ll cripple you!” Huo Zhexi was all set to take him down again.
“Zhexi!” Mingzhu scolded him sharply.
Huo Zhexi was held back by his father, but his eyes remained locked on Zhou Tingzheng, looking fierce as if he was about to eat him alive.
“Tingzheng, what exactly happened?” asked Huo Juncheng.
Zhou Tingzheng: “…”
The last thing he expected was that this waitress was actually Huo Zhexi’s girlfriend.
