Chapter 9
She had just put it on, and it was ruined before the birthday banquet even began.
The woman who had wine spilled on her was so angry her voice cracked: "You\'re just a server who can\'t even do your job properly, and you dare to hit me?"
Xia Xuechun retorted defiantly: "You hit me first! Why shouldn\'t I hit back?! Just because you\'re rich, you think you can trample on other people\'s dignity?!"
Qiao Chuchu watched coldly.
That\'s how this world\'s female protagonist was - she viewed her own dignity as paramount, but loved to crush others\' dignity under her feet.
Just like...
Her brother.
Qiao Chuchu\'s eyes darkened as she thought about her brothers\' future downfall. Though they would lose everything because of the female lead, she would self-righteously comment: "Money truly is something that corrupts the heart."
After making such remarks, she would then climb into the male lead\'s Rolls-Royce.
Qiao Chuchu snapped back to reality and sneered.
She had never liked the female protagonist.
But since she was an early-stage character who died before the female lead\'s appearance, they had never crossed paths.
Until now.
Not in text, but seeing this person\'s arrogant and aloof face in reality.
It became more irritating the longer she looked.
The guests gathered around in a circle. While no one politely recorded with their phones, neither did anyone intervene - all too concerned about maintaining their own image to act rashly.
So the wine-stained lady was getting beaten one-sidedly.
Since Xia Xuechun had been working hard all her life, dealing with a pampered woman was no challenge.
She pinned the woman down and shouted: "I can apologize to you, but you can\'t slap my face!"
The woman screamed and pushed back: "This dress was specially prepared for this banquet, do you know how much money and thought I put into it?!"
"I don\'t care how much money or thought you put into it, how is that my problem?! I\'ll pay for it!" Xia Xuechun grabbed her hair: "But you need to apologize for slapping my face first!"
Pei Yuan and the others slowly gathered around.
Xia Xuechun refused to admit her mistake and instead reasonably demanded the victim apologize first.
Pei Yuan\'s eyes turned cold as he looked at his six brothers: "Would any of you ever fall for this woman?"
The sixth brother said sinisterly: "Even if I went blind and deaf, I still wouldn\'t like her."
Pei Youchuan mocked: "She can\'t even apologize for normal mistakes, our female lead thinks the world revolves around her."
Lin Qing sneered: "Of course, she\'s the female lead - haven\'t you watched TV dramas? Many female leads are like this."
And this female lead would even go on to date three men at once in the future.
Laughable.
From a distance, Lou Yuejue saw this scene and scoffed: "This female lead is just garbage, making mistakes but not knowing how to apologize. I\'d rather protect that fool Qiao Chuchu than ever protect this garbage female lead."
Lou Tingsi curved his lips in a smile, but his eyes watching the female lead were filled with murderous intent.
Xia Xuechun grabbed the woman\'s hair: "Apologize for hitting my face! Now!!"
Aliali: 674848d2c4f3f33ac476a007The woman screamed like a kettle: "Security! Security!"
Xia Xuechun thundered: "Hurry up!"
The guests exchanged glances, their eyes full of judgment as they looked at Xia Xuechun.
Old Master Zhao walked out imposingly with his cane, about to rebuke her.
Suddenly, Qiao Chuchu called out loudly—
"What right do you have to demand an apology from her?!"
The scene fell silent.
Old Master Zhao and those beside him stopped in their tracks.
Pei Yuan and the others also turned to look at the source of the voice in surprise.
Wearing a light pink puffy dress, Qiao Chuchu walked out from behind the crowd to face Xia Xuechun: "Tell me, did this lady trip you, causing you to spill red wine on her?"
