Chapter 2268: Chapter 2270: Gu Linxi vs Cui Jiangjing
Cui Jiangjing put on a deep look, lazily smiling as he glanced at Gu Linxi, “When you meet someone you like, you’ll always feel that you’re not doing well enough.”
You always think you’re just a little short; she deserves better!
This feeling perhaps only comes with truly liking someone.
“Really?” Huo Xiahe forced a smile, biting her lip and whispering, “I’ve already met someone I like, but unfortunately he has a girlfriend, so I…”
“Hmm?” Her voice was too low for Cui Jiangjing to hear clearly, so he turned his head forward and asked her, “What did you say?”
Huo Xiahe looked at his extraordinarily handsome face, unable to speak the truth.
While hesitating, Cui Hao made an excuse to go to the restroom and came out quickly. He walked hurriedly to their table, knocking on the table with an extremely displeased face, coldly instructing, “What are you doing here running around? Hurry up and leave, don’t embarrass me!”
Huo Xiahe was startled to see him come out so quickly, instinctively standing up, “Mr. Cui.”
Facing her, Cui Hao’s face slightly softened, nodding at her in greeting, “Xiahe. Come over for dinner tonight, let your aunt make something nice for you!”
“Sure, Mr. Cui.” Huo Xiahe obediently agreed.
Cui Hao turned his head again to look at his son and the girl sitting next to his son, who had stood up but leaned defiantly without any intention of greeting him. He cursed in his heart ‘no manners’, not even looking directly at her, and bluntly commanded, “Hurry up and leave, got it! I don’t have that much face to lose for you. I don’t expect you to make me proud out there, but at least don’t make me lose face!”
Cui Jiangjing’s eyes clouded with a shadow, standing up with a cold and hard attitude, “What face have I lost for Mr. Cui, be specific.”
Cui Hao was about to leave, then turned back, suppressing his voice with intolerable anger, “You don’t know what shame you’ve brought me?”
“I don’t know!”
Arrogant, defiant.
Cui Hao’s anger was ignited immediately, coldly sneering with innate authority, “I don’t care if you fool around outside, and I don’t bother about whom you date. You take a car mechanic around everywhere, what do you mean, you want to completely disgrace our Cui Family!”
“Do you know how many uncles and elders saw you dining here just now, and how many people laughed at you?”
Cui Jiangjing’s first reaction wasn’t anger, but concern. He was worried Gu Linxi would be hurt by his dad’s words, he immediately grabbed the wrist of the little woman beside him, silently expressing his stance. Stepping forward to block in front of Gu Linxi, his forehead veins pulsed, decisively arguing, “My woman, I’m not afraid to take her for anyone to see! I never think taking her out for dinner, and being seen by others, is embarrassing. She is my pride! I am proud my girlfriend is her!”
“Humph, you’re proud of a car mechanic, what a joke!”
Light flickered in Cui Jiangjing’s eyes, had it not been for the man speaking in front of him being his father, he might have rushed forward to seize the collar of this brute and punch him!
But he couldn’t, and mustn’t do that, he only felt immense heartache, aching for how sad she must be hearing those words.
The woman he wishes to protect at his heart’s core is being hurt by his biological father; as a son, he can’t rashly strike his father, but as a boyfriend, what he can do is stand firmly by her side.
