Chapter 180: Causing trouble all day long!
Zhao Jie stood up indignantly, "It was clearly Miss Lisa who spoke in a sarcastic tone the moment we met. Why should we apologize?"
Several others also spoke angrily, "Exactly, isn't this bullying?"
"Aren't you guys being too unreasonable?"
Mr. Li looked at them as if they were a group of ignorant children, and waited for them to speak before he continued to speak slowly.
"I can make it impossible for you to survive in South City."
Thinking that this person looked gentle but acted so rudely, Zhao Jie and the others were so angry that their eyes turned red.
Yan Ruo smiled and took two steps forward, looking at Lisa.
"How did Ms. Lisa want me to apologize just now?"
Lisa raised her chin, her eyes full of pride.
"I want you to bow 90 degrees and say to me loudly, 'I'm sorry, I was wrong, I have no manners, please forgive me.' Say it three times in a row!"
Yan Ruo raised an eyebrow, "I originally thought you were just a little bit poor in quality, but after seeing your father, I realized that you really don't have any family education."
She glanced coldly at Mr. Li, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
"Although you didn't bow at a full ninety degrees just now, I'm a generous person. Considering your poor upbringing since childhood, I'll forgive you this time."
After saying that, he turned and looked at Zhao Jie and the others, "Let's go."
Mr. Li was so furious that he didn't expect someone would dare to speak to him like that and threatened him.
"Miss, you have to think carefully about the consequences of offending me."
Yan Ruo stopped and glanced at the group of people not far away. There were both men and women, all middle-aged and elderly, and they all looked like people of status.
And everyone on my side is young, including two strong guys, so we are not afraid of fighting.
"Why, Mr. Li, do you want your friends to come and teach us a lesson?"
Mr. Li glanced over there without leaving a trace and said lightly, "I am old and don't like to shout and kill, but I have a way to make it impossible for you to take a single step in South City."
Yan Ruo said nonchalantly, "Then I'll wait."
After saying that, he walked straight towards the gate. When he passed the group of middle-aged and elderly people, he turned his head and looked at them curiously.
They are all unfamiliar faces, I don’t know them.
"Miss Yan, Miss Yan!" Suddenly someone in the crowd called her.
Yan Ruo paused, could it be that there was someone he knew?
A very wealthy middle-aged woman walked out of the crowd and looked at Yan Ruo with surprise in her eyes.
"Miss Yan, it really is you. When did you come to South City?"
Looking at the warm and friendly woman opposite her, Yan Ruo was puzzled. Do they... know each other?
"Excuse me, who are you?"
The middle-aged woman's face was full of enthusiasm. "Miss Yan, you are a forgetful person. We met last week at the Xu family charity dinner in North City. My maiden name is Zhou."
In fact, she also went there with her sister-in-law from her natal family that day.
Even if he said he had met her before, it would have been no more than a fleeting glance. After all, he had met so many people that day, and even if Yan Ruo had a good memory, it was impossible for him to know everyone.
However, Yan Ruo knew that the Zhou family had a large business in North City and had a long-term partnership with the Xu family.
Yan Ruo smiled friendly, "It's Madam Zhou. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Mrs. Zhou smiled and took a step back to make way. "Since we are both in South City, I hope I can invite you to have afternoon tea with me next time I am free. Miss Yan, take care."
"goodbye."
Looking at Yan Ruo's receding back, Mr. Li walked forward with a somewhat grim expression.
"Mrs. Zhou knows her?"
Mrs. Zhou's husband's family is not well-known, but her own family is very powerful.
Because of this reason, except for those top families, everyone in South City is willing to give her face.
And now, she was so polite to that woman. This made Mr. Li feel a little uneasy.
It was precisely because of this that he did not continue to let anyone stop Yan Ruo.
After Yan Ruo and the others left, Mr. Li asked, "What is the identity of that woman?"
Mrs. Zhou also saw the conflict between Mr. Li and Yan Ruo before, but Yan Ruo had his back to her at the beginning, so she didn't recognize him and didn't want to meddle in his affairs.
Only now...
Mrs. Zhou glanced at Lisa, who still looked unconvinced, and then looked at Mr. Li with sympathy.
"Mr. Li, considering we've known each other for many years, I advise you to take your daughter to apologize to Miss Yan as soon as possible."
Mr. Li frowned and was about to ask something when Lisa behind him spoke first with dissatisfaction.
"Why? She's from an ordinary rural background. Am I supposed to be afraid of her?"
Although this kind of young lady with a willful personality may appear straightforward and cute at times, she can also be really annoying and ignorant of the immensity of the world at times.
Madam Zhou said with an unhappy expression, "Since you know Miss Yan, don't you know who Miss Yan's boyfriend is?"
"Her boyfriend?" Lisa thought of the man she had met before. He was indeed good-looking and had a strong aura. Most importantly, he looked familiar to her.
At this moment she finally realized that something was wrong, but she still asked stubbornly.
"Mrs. Zhou, you're not trying to say that her boyfriend is some big shot who can't be messed with, are you?"
Mrs. Zhou looked at her with an indescribable expression and nodded. "She's definitely not easy to mess with."
Seeing Lisa's attitude, I wanted to turn around and leave, but when I saw Mr. Li next to me, I reminded her again.
"Behind this Miss Yan is Mr. Xu from the Xu Group. I heard that the Han family was suppressed by the Xu Group because they offended her. Mr. Li should apologize as soon as possible."
Not only Mr. Li, but also the other people who came out to eat with them were surprised for a moment.
In the first half of the year, the Xu family entered South City, expanding at an astonishing rate. The Qu family, which had been declining for years, quickly regained its strength thanks to its partnership with the Xu family.
On the contrary, the Han family and the Zhou family, which had been strong in the past, have been in a bad situation in the past six months.
In just half a year, due to the arrival of the Xu family, the situation in South City has undergone earth-shaking changes.
In the South City business community, there is no one who does not want to cooperate with the Xu family.
Since President Xu’s girlfriend is in South City, can they try to change direction and get in touch with the Xu family?
Among the people present, Mr. Li had the most complicated mood.
The reason why he was so successful at today's dinner table was because he had obtained cooperation with the Xu family.
Although it was just a small contract for scraps, it was the beginning of a breakthrough.
He originally thought that he would take advantage of this cooperation opportunity to build a good relationship with the people in Xu Group so as to obtain greater cooperation in the future.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he offended President Xu's girlfriend.
Looking at his daughter, whom he had always loved so much, Mr. Li's eyes no longer showed any pampering or tolerance, but only anger.
"Come on, you're already so old, and you're always causing trouble for me."
"Now you actually dare to provoke Mr. Xu's people. If this affects the company's cooperation, I will not forgive you."
