At the dining table, Zhou Jun and Ning Ge were chatting happily. Seeing Cheng Su return with an unusual expression, their conversation halted. Zhou Jun gave Ning Ge a knowing look and motioned toward Cheng Su.
Cheng Su was unaware, pursing her lips with a face full of displeasure. Seeing Chiang Tian reminded her of past unpleasantness.
"What happened? You went to the bathroom and came back looking so upset." Ning Ge asked.
"Yeah, sister-in-law, did someone without eyes bump into you? Tell us, in this whole capital, there’s nothing Ning Ge and I can’t handle. We’ll stand up for you." Zhou Jun said with the air of a king.
Cheng Su let out a sound, touched her face, and realized she had brought her emotions back with her, then smiled and said, "It’s nothing, just someone bumped into me carelessly outside, and I felt a bit uncomfortable."
Zhou Jun didn’t know Cheng Su well, but Ning Ge understood her somewhat. If it was simply being bumped into, she wouldn’t care, much less look so upset — she wasn’t that petty. He had seen before, when dining out, a waiter accidentally spilled soup on her, and she wasn’t angry. So why get mad over being bumped?
So, she was lying.
"What, did you run into someone outside?" Ning Ge eyed her.
"Really, no..." Seeing his obviously disbelieving look, Cheng Su relented and said, "Alright, I just ran into Chiang Tian outside!"
"Chiang Tian?"
Ning Ge slightly straightened his posture and asked, "Was he rude to you?"
"Damn, this fallen prince dares to show up on our turf and dares to bother our people? I’ll go for him!" Zhou Jun stood up.
"No, he didn’t do anything to me." Cheng Su didn’t want to cause trouble and quickly stopped him, "Don’t go, why waste breath on someone like that?"
Her words made Zhou Jun feel even more indignant. Cheng Su was clearly feeling wronged and avoiding confrontation — doesn’t that sound right?
A scumbag whose world has collapsed dares to show off in front of them?
