He couldn't afford to offend Su Ying's family background, and there was no benefit in confronting her directly right now, so he could only choose to keep quiet and swallow his anger.
But don't expect him to just let this go!
Jiang Yifan glanced at Xie Li out of the corner of his eye, the hatred in his eyes almost tangible.
Xie Li felt it was hard to ignore her, so she could only look at her calmly.
Jiang Yifan quickly looked away.
Xie Li, who hadn't uttered a single word the entire time: "..."
If she says that this matter has nothing to do with her, would anyone believe her?
Su Ying went out at noon, and specifically instructed her subordinate to have lunch with Xie Li.
The lackeys were very enthusiastic, bringing along their second, third, fourth, and fifth henchmen to accompany Xie Li. According to him, "More people means more presence."
But Xie Li felt that having too many people would strain her wallet. With so many underlings eating with her, it wouldn't be right for her not to treat them. However, her underlings all had big appetites, which made Xie Li a little worried.
I feel like her wallet will be emptied very soon.
The lackeys had no qualms about eating, since Sister Ying was always incredibly extravagant! They ate to their hearts' content, determined to make a grand spectacle of themselves and ensure that no one would underestimate them.
To outsiders, this scene appears as one of petty people gaining power and becoming arrogant.
On the Linjiang No.1 Middle School campus forum, a discussion thread quietly appeared in the popular discussions.
[Discussion: What are your thoughts on the XL incident?]
Honestly, this person's behavior is truly terrifying and chilling.
Do you all remember the post that broke the news yesterday?
LZ's friend works in the student union. To protect her friend's privacy, I won't say her specific position, but it's certain that yesterday's post was deleted under internal pressure.
X's background is really powerful; it seems ZSY and SL have no choice but to accept their fate.
Why did I have to mess with someone?
Call Me Little Red Flower: OP, post deleted! Who gave you the audacity to speak ill of X? [doge emoji]
Qinghan: Hehe, if you're so capable, keep suppressing the topic and deleting posts. I don't believe that anyone at Linjiang No.1 Middle School has the right to be arrogant.
I love Xiaobaibai: Just saying, I don't think X has any background. Isn't she from the same place as that poor student in the international class in the first year of high school?
Qinghan: That's even more terrifying. ZSY and SL's families both have quite a background, yet they fell into the hands of such a green tea bitch. Tsk tsk.
...
The lackey was a netizen who was always at the forefront of gossip. When he heard about Xie Li's gossip again, he was furious.
Yingge's little fanboy: Does my brother Li need to resort to such despicable means? Brother Li could take care of all those girls with just one finger, okay?
He felt honored that his brother was a hidden martial arts master, and his arrogance was even greater than before.
Ying Ge's Little Fanboy: If you're so capable, stop being sarcastic and come and challenge my Brother Li to a duel! If you win, I'll change my surname to yours; if you lose, you'll both kneel down and call me grandpa!
Ying Ge's little fanboy: Call me grandpa! Li Ge is your ancestor!
...
Xie Li: "Do you want this chicken leg? If not..."
She saw the other person frantically tapping on their phone, and it looked like they were about to lose their last chicken leg.
The younger brother quickly put away his phone and casually took the last chicken leg: "Yes! I also want an order of sweet and sour pork ribs, go get it for me!"
As he spoke, he nudged his second underling. He'd put on a very good show, upholding Brother Li's reputation; he deserved a bonus!
Xie Li: "..."
She looked up and around, sensing that the way people were looking at them was a little strange.
It was as if they had seen a venomous snake; the wariness and hostility in their eyes were impossible to miss.
