Translator: End Less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shangguan Yunxi had deliberately refused to give a drink to Jiang Ling’er. She would’ve felt more at ease if she didn’t have to do so. However, because of Li Yu’s words, she was instantly filled with jealousy. Why? Why was every woman being spoiled by their families except her?
Although she was brimming with jealousy, she still looked apologetic. She said, “I was careless. I’m very sorry. I’ll go get a drink for her now.”
Not long after, Shangguan Yunxi returned with hot milk on a tray. She said with a smile, “Be careful, don’t burn yourself,”
When Jiang Ling’er reached out to take it, Shangguan Yunxi’s hand suddenly slipped, and the milk fell and splashed on Jiang Ling’er’s dress. Then, the sound of glass shattering echoed throughout the room.
Jiang Ling’er immediately retracted her hand, but she was still scalded red. Her dress was also wet in many places.
Looking at her reddened hands, she was furious. This woman was the Shangguan family’s daughter, yet she still used such despicable methods to harm people. She was clearly a child from a rich family. From the perspective of education, it was impossible for her to do such a shameful thing.
The guests who heard the commotion looked over one after another. Everyone had a surprised expression on their faces as they discussed softly.
Shangguan Yunxi apologized, “I’m really sorry, it wasn’t intentional. Let me help you wipe it.”
Looking at the other party’s hand, Shangguan Yunxi felt soothed and wanted to touch the burn maliciously.
Li Yu did not expect her to use such a despicable method and immediately pushed her away.
Shangguan Yunxi fell to the ground, her hand cut by the broken glass. She was resentful and could only look at Old Master Shangguan with an aggrieved face, hoping that he would speak up for her.
However, he did not even look at her because she had offended Li Yu.
Li Yu nervously said, “Waiter, hurry up and bring a basin of cold water over,”
He looked at Jiang Ling’er’s scalded hand, his heart aching. He asked, “Fortunately, there are no blisters. Does it hurt? Let’s do a simple treatment now and then go to the hospital immediately.”
Jiang Ling’er saw how nervous he was and assured, “It should be fine. However, I have to change my clothes. It’s too uncomfortable.”
Shangguan Lin said apologetically, “I’m very sorry, CEO Li. I didn’t expect my sister to be so careless. Please take this lady to change her clothes. If she goes to the hospital, the Shangguan family will pay for all the medical expenses.”
Li Yu looked at Shangguan Lin coldly and said, “I wasn’t the one who was scalded. Why are you apologizing to me?”
Shangguan Lin was stunned. He didn’t expect Li Yu to be so disrespectful.
Old Master Shangguan was very unhappy when he saw his grandson being insulted. He glanced at Shangguan Yunxi. He scolded, “Useless thing, don’t tell me that you expect your brother to be responsible over a mistake you made?”
Shangguan Yunxi felt wronged and was helped up by the waiter. She covered her hand and walked up to Jiang Ling’er, saying pitifully, “Miss, I’m very sorry. My hand slipped just now. I really didn’t mean it.”
Despite her words, her eyes were fixed on Li Yu.
Someone among the guests suddenly said, “Since Miss Shangguan has apologized, you shouldn’t be so stingy, Miss,”
As soon as they said that, many people instantly followed suit.
“That’s right. Miss Shangguan is also injured. How pitiful.”
“It’s just a glass of milk and not sulfuric acid. Why make a fuss?”
“You’re right. It’s just a small matter. There’s no need to be so dramatic.”
“She couldn’t avoid it herself, and now she wants to blame Miss Shangguan?”
Jiang Ling’er’s face darkened.
Li Yu looked at the crowd coldly. “If you have the ability, come and tell your dissatisfaction to my face. Don’t hide in the crowd like a stinky rat,”
After saying that, he suddenly walked in front of one of the ladies, took off her leather shoes, and used them to slap her mouth.
She screamed and quickly covered her mouth, crying in pain as she looked at Li Yu in panic.
Li Yu mocked, “What, couldn’t you dodge it? Will you blame Miss Shangguan?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his leg and kicked the crotch of one of the men there. He mocked again, “It’s just a glass of milk and not sulfuric acid. Why make a fuss?”
The man knelt on the ground and sobbed in pain.
Shangguan Lin hurriedly said, “Someone, send these people to the Shangguan family’s hospital. We will reimburse all the medical expenses,”
As soon as he ordered, a few security guards came in and took the two people away on a stretcher..
