"I didn't expect you to be such a person, Mrs. Lu," Qin Zhen said. She had never liked this woman much. She scanned her up and down, her expression full of contempt.
Lu Luochen was a bit indignant and started looking around for surveillance cameras.
"Mrs. Qin, things are really not like this. Si Ning is definitely not such a person," Lu Luochen explained anxiously. But obviously, Mrs. Qin's attitude had turned colder than before.
"Mr. Lu, in principle, this is your family matter, and it shouldn't involve an outsider like me. But Mrs. Lu's behavior is really a bit excessive," Mrs. Qin said and then took a few steps aside, clearly not willing to be as close as before.
Wen Sining opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
Just then, the howling from over there grew louder.
Qin Zhen, who had just been standing there with her hands on her hips, waiting to watch the show, was slightly stunned.
"Mom, I feel like something's not right. Doesn't this voice sound familiar to you?"
After this reminder, Mrs. Qin listened carefully.
She had originally thought that if they were really hooligans, it would be okay to let Mr. Chen beat them up to vent his anger. But now, after listening carefully, she noticed something was wrong.
"Quick, get some lights over here!"
This place was a blind spot with poor lighting, and it was impossible to see what was going on over there clearly.
The hotel waiters immediately brought over several large lamps.
Everyone gathered around, only to find that the person Mr. Chen Yuanshan was punching was actually Mrs. Qin's own son.
There was another person beside him. The two of them had been beaten black and blue by Mr. Chen. It wasn't that they were worse at fighting than this middle - aged man. It was just that they were drunk and unsteady on their feet, and had no strength to fight back.
"What are you doing? Stop right now!"
Mrs. Qin was extremely heartbroken seeing her precious son beaten like this.
Those who were watching the show looked at each other in disbelief and couldn't say a word.
Mr. Chen Yuanshan hadn't realized what was going on yet. His punches and kicks kept falling, showing no sign of stopping.
In the end, it was Qin Zhen who called the security guards over to pull him away.
"Quick, send them to the hospital," Mrs. Qin said. She doted on her youngest son very much and never even said a harsh word to him. Now that he had been beaten like this, she was naturally heartbroken.
"Wait, Mrs. Qin. You said this person is your son?" Mr. Chen Yuanshan wasn't willing to let it go.
He had his own agenda. On the one hand, he wanted to avenge Chen Shanshan. On the other hand, he wanted to seize the opportunity to see if he could gain some benefits.
"You've already beaten them like this. What else do you want?" Qin Zhen said, looking at her younger brother's bruised face. She was so angry that she almost wanted to call someone to kick this father - daughter duo out.
"Mrs. Qin, I know your Qin family is powerful, but you should still be reasonable. Your son molested my daughter in front of so many people. How can my daughter live in the future? Isn't your Qin family going to give me an explanation?" Mr. Chen Yuanshan said as he pulled Chen Shanshan over, as if he wanted everyone to see clearly what kind of ordeal Chen Shanshan had just gone through.
But Mrs. Qin remained calm and waved her hand, still telling people to carry the person away quickly.
When things were calm, Mrs. Qin was willing to put on a kind - faced appearance and talk to others. But after all, she was a strong woman in the business world, single - handedly supporting the entire business empire. She was definitely not someone to be bullied.
"Mr. Chen, you want to argue with me, right? Then we still have to figure out the matter first. Miss Chen, are you sure it was your sister - in - law who brought you here and then let my son molest you?" Mrs. Qin's slightly raised voice carried an innate dignity, which scared Chen Shanshan into being even more silent.
Qin Zhen also sneered: "Why aren't you talking? Weren't you just complaining non - stop? Go on. Was it really my younger brother who molested you?"
Mr. Chen Yuanshan saw his daughter's expression and quickly nudged her.
"Daughter, just be brave and speak out. Even if the sky falls, Dad will hold it up for you," Mr. Chen Yuanshan said, putting on a good - father act.
After much hesitation, Chen Shanshan finally had to nod her head reluctantly.
If she said no, she wouldn't be able to prove Wen Sining's guilt. So now, this seemed to be the only way.
"Haha..."
But unexpectedly, the next second, Mrs. Qin burst out laughing wildly.
Even Qin Zhen beside her looked disdainful.
The guests behind them couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker.
This sudden strangeness made Mr. Chen Yuanshan feel uneasy.
"What are you all laughing at? My daughter almost fell into the claws of those two brats. How can you still laugh? Mrs. Qin, if you don't give me an explanation today, I'll call the police right now!" Mr. Chen Yuanshan said as he pretended to take out his phone.
In fact, he couldn't really call the police. As a businessman, he knew very well that he could gain more if the matter was settled privately.
But unexpectedly, Mrs. Qin looked calm: "Sure. I'm counting on you to call the police quickly and let the police come. I'm also planning to sue Miss Chen."
"What did you say?" Mr. Chen Yuanshan thought this woman must be crazy.
Chen Shanshan couldn't bear to see her father fighting alone. With red eyes, she said, "Mrs. Qin, your son was drunk. We won't argue with him. But sister - in - law, you must give me an explanation for today's matter."
Before Wen Sining could mock Chen Shanshan for her wishful thinking, Mrs. Qin spoke first.
"Mrs. Lu, I'm really sorry. It seems we misunderstood you just now."
"How could it be a misunderstanding? You all saw it, didn't you? What couldn't those drunk brats do?" Mr. Chen Yuanshan really couldn't understand why these people were so calm.
Qin Zhen couldn't stand it anymore. She picked up the champagne beside her and splashed it directly on Mr. Chen Yuanshan's face.
"If you keep calling them brats, I'll call the police right now. After all, you just injured my younger brother," Qin Zhen said. Then she walked towards Chen Shanshan: "Miss Chen, you should make up a more believable lie. My younger brother would never molest you because he's always been into boys and has no interest in women."
