Volume 2: Falling in Love with You is an Irrepressible Downfall Chapter 6: Rich in Combat Power
"Miss, sorry, I'm not a waiter."
Tong Mai was able to say those few words so calmly, which completely exceeded his own expectations!
Her current good temper was probably all cultivated in the Huo family!
The woman was flung open, because the high heels were too high, and she couldn't stand firm in time. She hastily fell to one side with a "thud" sound, falling to the ground, accompanied by the sound of the fall, a sharp cry, instantly becoming the focus.
"Ah...... you......" fell down, glaring at Tong Mai with eyes full of hatred.
Because the woman's figure is too tall, it's a bit difficult to stand up.
But Tong Mai didn't really mean to pull her up, wasn't she wanting to be the center of attention? With so many people around paying attention to her, she should be thrilled! What a vain woman!
Of course, as women become the focus, Tong Mai is also being watched by everyone...
Lian Xian Ning gazed at Tong Mai from afar, slightly furrowing his brow. This girl seemed familiar, but he couldn't quite recall where they had met before. He was certain that he had seen her, yet for the moment, it slipped his mind. After all, this girl's delicate and pure face was not easily forgotten once seen.
"Hey, help me up!" Now, the woman needs someone to help her get back on her feet.
If she stands up alone, because her skirt is too short and her neckline is too low, there's always a place that will be exposed!
Despicable person...
This term is absolutely taboo for Tong Mai! Extremely taboo!
"Which lousy person are you scolding, you old bear?" Determined to give her a chance to retort, Tong Mai glared at the woman with a fierce gaze, his face twisted in a menacing scowl.
You can't just casually scold someone with those two words, "despicable person"! You lack upbringing, that's all!
The woman was obviously not easy to mess with, facing Tong Mai's inquiry, she still responded very arrogantly, "I'll scold you, what can you do?" The provocative meaning was very strong and thick, especially when she glared at Tong Mai with her eyes wide open, both of them stared at each other with their eyes wide open, as if they were competing to see whose eyes could be bigger.
Tong Mai was thoroughly enraged, damn it! She clenched her fists tightly, and the next second, when she couldn't control herself from slapping her hard, her hand was suddenly grasped. "Xiao Mai..."
Yin Yuqi's timely appearance, timely interception.
Tong Mai turned around and saw not only Yin Yuqi but also Huo Yize was there...
Huoyi Ze will be here, shouldn't it be within her expectations? But why does she feel so annoyed seeing him and Yinyu Qi standing together at this moment, luxurious evening gowns, dignified suits, talented men and beautiful women...
And she is more like a clown! A complete clown!
"Yu Qi... you're just in time! Quick, pull me up!" The woman was obviously acquainted with Yu Qi and upon seeing her, she seemed to regard her as a lifesaver, eager to put an end to this awkward scene.
Huo Yize's eyes were dim, and his handsome face didn't show any emotional fluctuations. He was no longer surprised by Tong Mai's talent for causing trouble. Wherever she went, she always managed to stir up some kind of incident.
His calm and cold eyes stared at Tong Mai, even when he looked her straight in the eye, it only lasted for a few seconds...
Tong Mai noticed that, facing He Yi Ze's icy coldness, there was suddenly a gap in his chest, which was faintly painful and unclear why he had this feeling... But this pain was real.
"For Pete's sake! Yuqi, how can your family have such a rude and discourteous waitress? She even dared to push me! What kind of thing is she?" The woman who stood up glared at Tong Mai with piercing eyes.
"Older female cousin, this is Xiao Mai, my younger sister...not some waitress!" Yin Yuqi corrected seriously.
Yin Yuqi's title is equivalent to giving a big combing to their relationship.
"Oh... so it's actually the kind of cheap and inferior thing that Auntie dislikes the most! I think... no matter how I look at it, it gives off a sly and cunning vibe, with a complete set of inferior genes."
The woman, called "sister" by Yoon Woo-ki, started insulting and provoking Tung Mai without restraint. With her already fiery temper, hearing such words made her anger spread wildly...
Is it the flavor of saucy fox?
Tong Mai didn't make a sound, but his eyes had already widened even more, as if he wanted to completely devour his cousin.
"Cousin, what are you talking about?" Yín Yǔ Qí was shocked at the same time, and also had a feeling of being completely at a loss.
How did my cousin meet Xiao Mai? My cousin is notorious for being feisty, while Xiao Mai has a stubborn personality that never gives up!
Tong Mai unexpectedly didn't retort immediately, her heart was as if it had been torn into pieces, shattered all over the place! These unbearable words kept lingering around her ears!
Huo Yize remained in a spectator state of mind, he certainly wouldn't speak up to help Tong Mai. Firstly, he didn't have the standing to help her at this point; secondly, and most importantly, he also didn't want to help her...
Just as her cousin was gloating, thinking that Tong Mai had admitted to being a cheap person, Tong Mai suddenly picked up a cup of wine from the side and splashed it at her cousin. "Speak with some respect! Any woman, no matter how promiscuous, can't be more promiscuous than you! You're the one who truly deserves the title of 'vixen'!"
Every word and sentence, Tong Mai muttered very heavily, now her face's solemnity manifested her great anger!
"Ah......" The luxurious evening gown of her sister was already stained with red wine, and she let out a sharp cry.
Everyone had an attitude of watching a show, and each cast their gaze on them.
"Amin, what's wrong? What happened?" At this moment, Chen Yuhua hurried over.
"Auntie, you've come just in time! It's this little wretch, she actually splashed wine on me! What kind of thing is she? How dare she be so presumptuous! Auntie, you must help me get justice back." The older cousin hugged Chen Yuhua's hand and stamped her foot coquettishly.
Chen Yuhua's good mood instantly plummeted to the bottom as she gazed at Tong Mai, accompanied by a surge of intense anger. "You damned girl! You're back and already causing trouble..." She clenched her fists tightly, and if not for the consideration of the many onlookers, she would have mercilessly scolded her and slapped her several times.
But now it's no good...
"Mom, I'm taking Xiao Mai upstairs to change clothes! Nothing else needs to be said."
Yin Yuqi and Tong Mai went upstairs together, not wanting their mother to continue pursuing this matter.
"What about me? What about my clothes? Aunt... look... they're all dirty!" My cousin was desperately trying to get her way, unwilling to let the argument end like this.
"You go with Yuqi and change into a new set of clothes too!"
Chen Yuhua glanced at Tong Mai while saying this, the implication in her eyes was very strong, as if telling her that she would definitely settle accounts with her afterwards.
Tong Mai didn't think much of it, anyway! Let's just settle the account! After all...it wasn't the first time she had been insulted and abused by her. She stood still, not intending to go upstairs with Yin Yuqi...
"Wheat... go upstairs! Today is Dad's birthday, be patient for a moment." As her sister, she always kindly reminds Tong Mai.
Tong Mai was very unwilling to go with her, and even if she splashed a cup of wine on her cousin, she still felt uncomfortable in her heart! Who can be happy after being scolded? Moreover, she herself was not happy...
However, noticing the gazes and glances of people around her, she couldn't help but feel a bit unbearable, as if everyone was laughing at her, mocking and ridiculing her!
And then... she inadvertently caught sight of He Yi Ze's face.
He also seemed to be in a state of watching a play, his eyes were dull and indifferent...
Helpless, Tong Mai still had no choice but to go upstairs with Yin Yuqi.
Li Xian Ning gazed at Tong Mai from afar, his eyes having been fixed on her since the moment he caught sight of her silhouette...
He remembered that it was the girl who splashed milk tea on him at Central Street, and the girl who asked him for a ride... It turned out that she was Yin Yuxi's younger sister from a different mother.
Learning this fact, even after the just-concluded battle between Tong Mai and his cousin, Lian Xingning's impression of Tong Mai was neither good nor bad, but he always felt that she was a bit beyond his expectations...
Vigorous, optimistic, brave... just like a little warrior!
This is Lien Chan's current view of her.
"Do you know how expensive this dress is? You could be sold ten times, a hundred times, and it still wouldn't make up for it." The three of them went upstairs to change clothes, with my cousin still grumbling and complaining nonstop.
"Alright, sister, next time I'll buy one for you too. Don't be so petty!"
Tong Mai suddenly fell silent, realizing that this was another extremely wrong decision. Why did she come back? She could have not come back, and let them hold whatever dinner party they wanted, ignoring it all would have been fine, wouldn't it?
Perhaps in her subconscious mind, she still hopes to get a little love from her father, even if she hates him very much, but at the same time as hating him, she also wants to get his affirmation.
Such thoughts made Tong Mai very confused, very confused...
"Wheat, formal wear is over here!"
Tong Mai went upstairs and was about to enter her own room when Yin Yuqi called out to her.
"I won't change, I'll just stay here for a while and then leave." Tong Mai's mood was low, waiting until the guests had all left, she would also take the opportunity to slip away.
On the surface, she appears to be strong and capable of fighting, but in reality, her heart is extremely fragile. The more lively and bustling the Yin family is, the more it highlights her loneliness, evoking from deep within her a boundless sea of pain, aside from the deeply rooted hatred that has taken hold.
"Wheat, this is the gift your father has prepared for you, to formally introduce you in front of everyone. So, Wheat... promise me, don't cause any more trouble! Even if you have a lot of resentment and anger deep down, you must endure it and not do anything surprising again. I know these years have been tough for you, but your father is now trying his best to make up for it, at least proving that he has always had you in his heart."
He was forced by his mother's strong temper.
This sentence, even if Yin Yuqi doesn't say it, Tong Mai can still understand...
