Chapter 365: Feeling Unworthy for Mr. Xiao
I have to say that although the auntie does not follow the moral code of martial arts, she is effective.
Everyone present thought that it was the arrogant Luna who bullied the old man and the child.
The crowd also began to point at Luna.
The harsh voices of discussion reached Luna's ears:
"After all, she knocked over a child, so it's only natural for the grandmother to be anxious and angry."
"She's a female lawyer, too. Did you see how arrogant she was just now? She looked so arrogant, and she didn't look like an innocent person."
"They dress like social elites, but underneath they are actually sophisticated egoists."
…
Public opinion was overwhelmingly one-sided, and Luna was completely panicked: "If I can't afford to offend, can't I just hide? It's just my bad luck! I admit defeat this time!"
Luna was about to take a detour and leave, but the old lady refused to let her go:
"Don't leave!"
"Didn't you just say you were going to check the surveillance? Why aren't you checking it? Are you in such a hurry to run?"
"I want to see, in this society, is it the public's morality that has the final say, or is it a bunch of you lousy lawyers?" With the support of public opinion, the auntie immediately became more confident.
Luna wanted to resist, but she was no match for the auntie. As the two pushed each other, Luna bumped into the perfume display counter on the side.
Luna fell to the ground along with the entire counter.
The glass and the cabinet full of perfumes shattered to the ground. In an instant, tens of millions of broken glass pieces were like pouring water, or like pearls falling to the ground, reflecting a dazzling luster.
Luna was lying among the broken glass, her face pale and looking painful.
The perfume spread quickly, and everyone in the photo studio smelled the strong scent, a strange mixture of several brands and scents.
Originally, it was just a dispute between passers-by.
Now that the interests of merchants in shopping malls have been destroyed, the salesgirls of perfume brands are not willing to be outdone and have joined the fight.
"Now, none of you can leave, Auntie. And this lawyer, you two will have to bear the compensation for the losses incurred at our counter."
The auntie exploded upon hearing this. She pointed at Luna and asked, "She's primarily responsible! Why do you want me to pay for it too? It's all her fault. If she hadn't hit my grandson first, none of this would have happened..."
As she was talking, the aunt burst into tears and sat on the ground, throwing a tantrum. "Oh my god, it's so unfair! Why am I so unlucky? I'm so unlucky! Who will help us, the grandmother and the grandson..."
Originally, Luna standing in the middle of the crowd, isolated and helpless, was enough to make people feel pity for her.
Now her face was pale, and her exposed calves and arms were scratched by glass fragments and covered in blood. Even the people who had been talking about Luna just now shut up and couldn't help but worry about Luna.
Seeing this scene, Qiao Shixin no longer stopped her brother.
Su Man was about to persuade Qiao Shiyan to go and take a look, but before she could finish her words, Qiao Shiyan walked to the center of the crowd.
He pushed through the crowd and walked towards Luna.
As soon as Luna saw Qiao Shiyan, she was stunned and confused. In an instant, she stopped pretending to be strong, curled her lips, and her eyes were immediately filled with tears.
Qiao Shiyan squatted beside her, wanting to ask if she was injured and if she could be helped to stand up.
As soon as she got close to him, Luna hugged his neck and burst into tears.
Qiao Shiyan scolded, "How many times have I told you this? When you're out in public, it's best not to casually reveal your identity as a lawyer. Do you think you're that capable?"
Luna was just crying. Now she felt that even his scolding was the most beautiful music in the world.
Anyway, Qiao Shiyan appeared, so she just had to rely on him.
He will support her and solve everything for her.
Su Man and Qiao Shixin also walked over.
Photo studio owner: I've never seen anything like this before. Things are getting even more interesting.
Seeing Luna holding Qiao Shiyan and refusing to let go, Qiao Shixin felt a little uncomfortable. She once again transformed herself into a little guardian of her brother and sister-in-law's love, and said sarcastically, "Brother, I think your colleague is seriously injured and can't get up. Call 120. It's useless for you to keep holding her. Your sister-in-law is still here!"
Only then did Qiao Shiyan gently push Luna away.
He went up to negotiate with the clerk in the perfume shop, but now the problem was very clear, that is, Auntie and Luna were both responsible, it just depended on who was more responsible.
Qiao Shiyan handed the aunt his lawyer's business card and said that he was Luna's attorney and that the matter would be resolved through formal channels. The aunt had to leave her contact information so that she could receive the court summons in the future.
It was not until she saw Qiao Shiyan’s high-sounding business card, with the serious title of lawyer on it, that the aunt realized that she seemed to have really hit a wall.
She originally wanted to make a big deal out of it.
The bigger the better.
But now, she wanted no one to notice her so that she could sneak away with her grandson.
The scene was in chaos.
At this moment, several men in suits and ties came out from the crowd.
I don’t know if it was because of his extraordinary aura, but the crowd watching the excitement took the initiative to make way for him.
Su Man saw at a glance that the man in suits and ties, the one walking in front, was Gao Xun.
Wherever Gao Xun is, Xiao Beisheng will definitely be there.
But I didn’t see Xiao Beisheng today.
Gao Xun had a cold expression on his face. Having been with Xiao Beisheng for many years, he had also acquired some of Xiao Beisheng's authority.
"What's wrong?" Gao Xun asked the clerk at the perfume counter in a low, unhurried voice, with a gentle yet intimidating presence that could not be ignored.
The salesgirl briefly told Gao Xun about the farce that had just happened.
Gao Xun said, "I understand. I'll guarantee this matter for them. Let them go first and get treatment."
Gao Xun calmed the situation down with just a few words.
Only then did Su Man remember that this shopping mall was also under the Dingsheng brand.
Gao Xun is here today, probably here for inspection.
Luna was injured and emotionally unstable and needed someone to take care of her.
At the scene, Qiao Shiyan was the only one he could rely on.
She looked at Qiao Shiyan pitifully. After a moment of hesitation, he finally relented and picked her up from the ground. He said to Su Man and Qiao Shixin, "I'll take her to the hospital first."
Suman nodded.
Seeing that her sister-in-law didn't stop her, Qiao Shixin didn't know what to say. She just bit her lower lip in indignation.
After the excitement was over, the crowd gradually dispersed.
Gao Xun walked up to Su Man and caught a glimpse of the shopping bags in Su Man and Qiao Shixin's hands. Inside the bags was a large couple photo of Su Man and Qiao Shiyan, clearly visible to him.
"When Mr. Xiao was unconscious, he was still calling your name," he glanced at the photos, "but he didn't know that the person he loved so much was living a happy life with peace of mind. Madam, Mr. Xiao did so much for you, and yet you... I feel so sorry for Mr. Xiao."
Suman was confused.
Gao Xun didn't want to say anything more to Su Man and left.
After Gao Xun walked away for a long distance, Su Man thought about what Gao Xun had just said, and her heart became more and more uneasy. The only thing that remained in her ears was that Xiao Beisheng was unconscious.
She said to Qiao Shixin, "Shixin, wait here for a moment. I'll be back soon."
"Hey, sister-in-law——"
How could Qiao Shixin stop her?
Su Man had already run away.
Outside the elevator, Su Man caught up with Gao Xun. "Assistant Gao, what did you mean by what you just said? Is your CEO Xiao's injury serious?"
"The Xiao family has booked a foreign medical team and plans to transfer Mr. Xiao to a foreign country for treatment. The special plane will depart at 7:30 tonight. If you still have any feelings for Mr. Xiao, please come to Dilan Garden tonight."
After Gao Xun finished speaking, he pressed the elevator door close button.
Su Man was forced to step back out of the elevator, and the two doors slowly closed in front of her.
