Chapter 691 - 687 Rose’s Method
As soon as Bai Zhiqing spoke, the people around immediately revealed mocking smiles, all turning to look at Zhao Lin as if he were a clown. They weren’t fools—they could clearly hear the subtext in Bai Zhiqing’s words, which was basically saying, "What are you, Zhao Lin? Mind your own business and scram as far away from me as you can. Don’t bother trying to cozy up to me."
Zhao Lin was no fool either. He could hear the disdain in Bai Zhiqing’s words and see it on her face, which made his complexion turn ugly in an instant. A cold light flickered in his eyes; Bai Zhiqing’s words were undoubtedly a slap in his face, making him the joke of high society.
This was no different than a slap to his face. To him, money wasn’t important; what mattered was face. Now that his face had been severely trampled underfoot, how could he hide his fury?
"Zhiqing, must you really do this?" Zhao Lin said, struggling to suppress the fury in his heart.
"Why can’t I do this? Zhao Lin, don’t think I don’t know what you’re really like. If you dare to bother my sister-in-law again, believe it or not, I’ll beat you up."
At this moment, Huang Feiyu, who had been planning to introduce people to Rose and Bai Zhiqing from afar, also noticed the commotion and immediately strode over.
"Huang Feiyu!"
Hearing this voice, Zhao Lin subconsciously raised his head and took a look at Huang Feiyu approaching, and coldly said, "Huang Feiyu, what do you mean by that? Are you trying to meddle in my pursuit of women now?"
He wasn’t afraid of Huang Feiyu. Although the Huang Family’s status in Xiangjiang was extraordinary, the Zhao Family wasn’t far behind. If it really came to a fight, the Zhao Family might not be afraid of the Huang Family. Besides, he couldn’t swallow today’s insult no matter what.
