Su Qingci was sent flying with one kick.

Lan Hua flew backward in an inverted C-shape, then let out a sharp scream and crashed onto the pastry table behind her with a thud.

With a crash, the table tipped over, scattering plates and snacks all over the floor.

The people around them, who were raising their glasses and chatting, turned around curiously upon hearing the noise.

Faced with Lan Hua rolling on the ground, clutching her large chest and sobbing, Zhou Xingyue looking pale, and Lan Qi looking terrified, Su Qingci acted like a little white rabbit, innocently touching her ears.

Damn it, she must be ripped red. This idiot, does she really think she won't fight back?

Lan Qi and Zhou Xingyue were stunned. "In this kind of situation, how could you dare to do this?"

Su Qingci rolled her eyes. You all want to maintain your ladylike image? Fine, you all maintain it. Anyway, I'm just going to run away after I finish this job. You won't know me for the rest of my life, and I won't know you. What kind of image do you need?

"Hua, Hua'er, what's wrong?"

A dignified woman ran towards Lan Hua, who was clutching her chest and looking up. "Mom, waah, Mom, waah, that country bumpkin hit me..."

Not far away, Kong Liu and his group also heard the noise, turned around, said "excuse me" and came over.

Seeing Lan Hua, who was being helped up by Hu Lirong, pointing at Su Qingci with tears in her eyes, Kong Liu asked unhappily.

"Yu Yan, what happened?"

Su Qingci instantly got into character.

She blinked her eyes, which instantly filled with tears of grievance. She looked at Kong Liu with a fearful and helpless expression, as if she had suffered a great insult and injustice.

"Cousin, waaaaah, they're bullying me!"

Lan Hua was stunned. "You bitch, where did you come from, you country bumpkin? You think you're in the right to hit someone?"

"Don't you have any manners or public morality? What, do you think Shanghai is some backwater, poor, desolate place?"

"Let me tell you, this isn't over. I won't let you get away with this. You dare hit me? I'll take your worthless life!"

"Hua'er, Hua'er, shut up!!!"

Hu Lirong looked disgusted and quickly scolded her youngest daughter for talking nonsense!

Su Qingci didn't refute, she just stood there with her head down, her shoulders twitching, looking innocent and pitiful.

Lan Hua, on the other hand, had a contorted face, bloodshot eyes, and a sinister look on her face. She kept stretching out her claws, trying to rush towards Su Qingci, but Hu Lirong held her back tightly.

The middle-aged man in a suit, looking displeased, shouted, "Lan Hua, watch your tone! What kind of occasion is this? What kind of behavior is this!"

"If you're not feeling well, go back first!"

The speaker was Lan Chengyong. His youngest daughter had made such a fool of herself, it was so embarrassing for him that it was no longer a question of who was right or wrong.

Lan Hua stared at her father in disbelief, then came to her senses, looked around at the people, and thought of her earlier vulgar words. Her face instantly turned bright red with embarrassment.

She pointed at Su Qingci and cried, "Dad, she hit me for no reason, and instead of helping me, you yelled at me!"

Zhou Xingyue quickly chimed in, "Uncle, there's a reason why Hua'er is so agitated. We greeted this lady from who-knows-where and exchanged a few words with her, and she started hitting us for no reason. Not to mention Hua, I was terrified too."

"Letting someone like that in would be extremely dangerous."

As she spoke, Lanqi muttered under her breath, "Everyone should stay away from her. I don't know if she's out of her mind."

Hu Lirong also looked disapproving. She forcefully pulled the struggling and crying Lan Hua back and said to Lan Chengyong, "It's not good for you to jump to conclusions before we've even figured things out."

"Hua'er is a bit spoiled usually, but not for no reason..."

Hu Lirong hesitated, not finishing her sentence, but successfully drew everyone's attention to Su Qingci.

Kong Liu still had to give Lan Chengyong some face. He didn't expect that Jiang Yuyan would cause such a mess when he wasn't paying attention.

But Jiang Yuyan was of great use to him, and due to the occasion, he asked her with displeasure.

"Yu Yan, what exactly happened?"

Su Qingci raised her head, looked at everyone with a look of fear, and then nervously leaned closer to Kong Liu, perfectly portraying her helplessness and weakness.

She seemed unsure of what to do, so she could only honestly recount the entire incident from beginning to end.

“Brother, as soon as Yuzhen and I came in, they surrounded us and asked why Yuzhen wasn’t dressed up like before. They said that she looked better the way she dressed before, and that she looked ugly now. They said that she should wear bright red lipstick and have captivating eyes to show respect. They even tried to drag us to get our makeup done, saying that it was not formal and impolite for us to dress like this for such an occasion.”

Kong Yuzhen immediately nodded, "Yes, I was there too!"

As soon as Su Qingci uttered these words, many people present looked at Kong Yuzhen's attire. Considering her previous appearances, they suddenly felt a bit confused.

It's obvious that the Lan family girl and the Zhou family girl have bad intentions.

Su Qingci spoke quickly and directly, "Then Yuzhen went to find my brother, and they asked me whose daughter I was. I said I came from Xiangnan, not whose daughter I was, but that I came with my cousin."

"Then they changed their attitude and started pushing me, tearing at my necklace and ears. They bullied me, called me a loser, a country bumpkin, and said I shouldn't be here. They said I was trying to become a phoenix out of thin air, and that I came here to steal their men. My ears were almost torn off. It hurt, so I pushed her, and she fell down."

"Cousin, I'm sorry. Did I cause you trouble? That Miss, right? I apologize to her. I didn't know people in Shanghai were like this. If I had known, I would have just stood there and let her hit and curse me. I really couldn't stand the pain anymore. Look, my ears still feel like they're on fire."
