He Jiaxin fell to the ground and let out a sharp scream, pointing at Lin Qingtong and yelling.
"Ah, I'm going to kill you! How dare you lay a hand on me? You're practically asking for death!"
Huo Xingyu stood to one side, one hand on his hip, and let out a muffled laugh.
"Well done."
He Jiaxin then noticed that Huo Xingyu was also there, and her face immediately turned ashen.
She had always secretly loved Huo Xingyu, but she never expected to run into him in this kind of situation, and she looked so disheveled!
He Jiaxin's screams grew increasingly shrill, and her eyes were practically murderous as she looked at Lin Qingtong.
Lin Qingtong's gaze was sharp and icy cold as she uttered a single sentence.
"In return for courtesy, if you bump into me and don't apologize, then I'll have to seek justice myself."
The afternoon sun shone on Lin Qingtong. She was dressed simply in a white shirt and jeans, looking dashing and beautiful, captivating everyone's attention while simultaneously inspiring awe.
At least now, no one thinks Lin Qingtong is easy to bully.
He Jiaxin didn't care whether she bumped into Lin Qingtong first or not. She rushed up and started scratching Lin Qingtong's face with her sharp nails, as if she wanted to ruin Lin Qingtong's appearance.
Lin Qingtong noticed the hatred in He Jiaxin's eyes, but remained calm and composed. She dodged and simultaneously pinned He Jiaxin against the door.
She used to practice some martial arts; most girls wouldn't be a match for her.
He Jiaxin was pressed against the door in an awkward position, her face was all squished up, and she would drool when she spoke.
"You, you better not leave! I won't put the pot on the stove!!"
Lin Qingtong chuckled, reached out and took the towel that the Duan family had prepared for the guests, and immediately used it to protect He Jiaxin's face.
"You should go back and practice your Mandarin more; you're drooling."
He Jiaxin almost ruined her face just now. I'm not some saint who would tolerate someone who attacked me.
She always felt that people like that had something wrong with their heads.
He Jiaxin's face was covered by a towel, and she retreated repeatedly. When she pulled the towel away, Lin Qingtong flicked a thin black stick with one hand, which swished through the air with a swishing sound.
"I just bought some self-defense tools. Would you like to try them out? If not, apologize to me first."
Looking at the thin stick in front of her, He Jiaxin imagined the pain of the bamboo strips hitting her body and was immediately frightened. She threw the towel on the ground.
"Sorry, okay?!"
Lin Qingtong raised her hand to weigh it, a smile playing on her lips, then turned to look at Sister Hong to the side.
"I don't know if you've verified the appointment details. My name is Lin Qingtong."
Upon hearing this, Sister Hong reluctantly flipped through the register, but she didn't pay any attention to it and simply closed it, her tone impatient.
"No, someone like you wouldn't be able to get an appointment."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qingtong frowned slightly, but still made a phone call in a calm tone.
"I've already arrived at the door, but the doorman said he doesn't have my appointment information."
Upon hearing Lin Qingtong's words, Sister Hong placed her fingers on her arm and her fat, greasy face was full of coldness.
“We do have important guests today, but it will definitely not be someone as poor as you. Not only can you not get in, but you also pretend to make a phone call. How could you possibly know Master Duan? It's laughable. Are you going to say later that he couldn't make it because something came up?”
He Jiaxin was not about to let this opportunity pass and immediately burst out laughing.
"I was riding in a tricycle and I still wanted to see Master Duan. I went back and daydreamed. Maybe there's still a chance."
Lin Qingtong's small face was calm, with a cold smile on her lips.
"If I were truly your honored guest, what would you do?"
Sister Hong waved her hand triumphantly and announced, "From now on, whenever I see you, I'll call you 'Sister,' write your name backwards, and give you all my savings!"
Upon hearing these words, my smile widened, and I slowly opened my mouth.
"Then it's a deal."
As soon as I finished speaking, hurried yet steady footsteps echoed from the distant corridor.
Master Duan's hearty and cheerful laughter could already be heard.
"Has our distinguished guest arrived? Welcome, Miss Su Qian!"
Upon hearing this, Sister Hong raised an eyebrow and looked coldly at Lin Qingtong, her tone provocative.
"See, I already told you, the distinguished guest can't be you. Their name is Su Qian, and what's yours? You're completely unrelated to them. You're just bragging to the heavens!"
Lin Qingtong simply said casually, "That's hard to say."
When Master Duan, dressed in a royal blue Zhongshan suit, appeared, Sister Hong hurriedly greeted him with a fawning smile.
"Master Duan, I already told you to leave things to me and I will definitely treat our distinguished guests well."
"There are people here deliberately causing trouble, so let's not disturb you."
Master Duan's gaze swept around, and he raised an eyebrow slightly when he looked at Lin Qingtong.
Seeing this, Sister Hong mistakenly thought that Master Duan disliked Lin Qingtong, so her smile became even more smug.
"I already told you, Master Duan doesn't know you, but you insisted on pretending here. You didn't expect Master Duan to be here, did you? I wonder if you're ashamed or embarrassed."
She even made a slapping gesture, looking every bit the smug little villain.
Hongjie had expected to see Lin Qingtong looking embarrassed, but instead, she saw Lin Qingtong's cool and beautiful face with a faint smile on her lips.
"Master Duan hasn't said anything yet."
Lin Qingtong's gaze fell on Master Duan with great interest, and Sister Hong also looked over, her tone very confident.
“Master Duan is impersonating a distinguished guest. I will take her away right away.”
Sister Hong reached out to pull Lin Qingtong, but Master Duan held her firmly.
"Quickly, someone come here!"
He stared intently at Lin Qingtong as she slowly stepped forward, then waved to beckon the others over.
Seeing this, Sister Hong's eyes flashed with malice.
This ignorant and arrogant girl is about to be thrown out of the manor by Master Duan.
The scene of being thrown away as I had imagined did not happen. Instead, I heard a uniform greeting.
"Miss Su Qian, welcome to Yousheng Manor!!"
The others in the villa stood before Lin Qingtong and bowed in unison, creating a rather magnificent scene.
Especially Master Duan, who was standing in front of Lin Qingtong with his hands clasped together and a fawning smile.
That smile was one that Sister Hong had never seen on Master Duan before.
The onlookers were shocked and looked in disbelief in Lin Qingtong's direction.
What?! She was actually personally entertained by Master Duan?!
You should know that Master Duan usually ignores them.
He Jiaxin was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder. She never expected that what Lin Qingtong said was true. She really knew Master Duan!
At that moment, she felt as if everything around her had turned into slaps on her face, burning with pain.
Meanwhile, Master Duan looked at Lin Qingtong with a beaming smile.
"It is an honor for Miss Su Qian to grace our manor with her presence. Our staff member was a bit ignorant and said some nonsense. Please don't mind it."
Master Duan then glared at Sister Hong and coldly rebuked her.
"Hurry up and apologize to Miss Su Qian!"
