Chapter 275 - 267: The Goofy Principal He
Having been called "Mainland Girl" over and over by such a brain-dead young girl, Sisi was fuming, even though she is known for her calm demeanor. Especially since she is not the kind of girl to take insults without talking back. Sisi didn’t stand up, instead she just sized up the girl in the yellow dress, looking her over for several minutes.
"Indeed, if you don’t have the foundation, don’t ruin good clothes. Tsk tsk, I really admire someone who can make high-end dresses look like they came from a street stall. And also, before you call others ’Mainland Girl’, you might want to wash out that Shandong scallion taste from your mouth!"
Sisi spoke these words in Cantonese, adding a layer of sarcasm. The girl in the yellow dress turned red and white in quick succession, nostrils flaring with anger, making her look even more unappealing. Particularly when a snicker came from behind the curtain, she couldn’t save face because Sisi’s words struck at her insecurities. Her family indeed immigrated to Hong Kong from Jinan, Shandong before the liberation, and to this day, her parents still can’t speak Cantonese. Only she had learned a bit, but it was not authentic, which had always been a source of pain for her. Now, Sisi hit the nail on the head so precisely that it was unbearable.
Sisi’s lips curled up slightly, no longer paying any attention to the silly girl, and continued to enjoy the dim sum, obviously disregarding her completely. The fire in the girl in the yellow dress flared up instantly.
Just as the girl in the yellow dress raised her right hand to slap Sisi, a very cool young man appeared out of nowhere, pinching her hand between two fingers and said coldly: "Lady Liu, you seem quite flustered. Perhaps you should go home and cool off with some mung bean soup."
Seeing the black-clad man suddenly appear, it felt like a bucket of ice water had been dumped over the girl in the yellow dress, bringing her instantly back to her senses. What was she doing today?
This Mainland Girl has a triad big brother backing her, and her Liu family’s small business isn’t enough to play with Boss Qiao. Lady Liu felt cold sweat on her back, immediately regained her senses, forced a stiff smile, apologized to Sisi in a low voice, and hurried away, followed by her companions who probably also remembered Sisi’s influential background and said "excuse us" before leaving.
This change of scene happened too fast, didn’t it? Weren’t they supposed to band together to attack this Mainland Girl? Weren’t they ready for a big showdown? Why is everyone running away faster than rats?
Sisi couldn’t help but smile wryly and thanked the cool man: "Brother Li, you were really cool just now."
Ah Li tugged the corner of his mouth without a word, then walked behind the curtain and pulled out a man who was flailing his hands around and saying, "Hey, don’t grab my collar, I can walk by myself, I really didn’t mean any harm, I just wanted to see what was going on."
