Chapter 172: 172, Si Chen, an irritable man
The man looked at her proud defiance, her sarcastic expression, and his normally cold gaze softened slightly in surprise.
What words should he use to describe this woman? Brave? Foolish? Or simply stupid?
This also indicated another thing – Yihan really just hired her to act, and didn’t tell her what this place was, what she should be careful about when speaking here, that she couldn’t just speak freely.
Well, hiring an actress, did he really pick an ordinary woman off the street?
If the one standing in front of him today was a seductive, sexy beauty, that would seem more believable.
He, instead of getting angry, laughed and with a beguiling smile, said, “Woman, how about you give up on Yihan and go with me instead?”
Song Qinghuan turned her head to look at him, and found herself rendered speechless.
Who was this man? What grudge did he have with Yihan to brazenly flirt with his wife in front of a crowd?
Was he doing this out of spite for Yihan, or to feed his own vanity, trying to prove that he was better than Yihan?
Pathetic human nature.
“…” Song Qinghuan did not reply, but firmly shook her head.
The man narrowed his eyes dangerously again, staring coldly at Song Qinghuan with an unfriendly tone, “Don’t say I didn’t warn you if you’re scheming against Yihan. You’re bound to end up empty-handed!”
Song Qinghuan retorted coldly, “What I gain or fail to gain is my business! What has it got to do with you? Perhaps you would do better minding your own business first!”
This man’s eyes darkened even deeper, his gaze filled with coldness, disgust, maliciousness, and destructiveness, sinister!
She didn’t have time to delve into why this man gave her such a look, all Song Qinghuan knew was, she needed to make a run for it immediately!
But she had barely taken two steps when her movement was suddenly halted.
The man reached out and grabbed her arm: “Woman, whatever you want, I can give it to you, money, status, legitimacy, even love. I can provide it all for you!”
Song Qinghuan creased her brow, attempting to free her hand, but failed to move it even a bit.
She glanced desperately at the butler for help, only to find that he was no longer there, and the servants who had noticed the situation were all looking concerned, but no one dared to step forward. They all nervously looked away when they met Song Qinghuan’s begging gaze.
“You are crazy!” Song Qinghuan exploded, staring at the man in front of her, “Let go of me!”
At her words, a cold sneer curled up at the corners of the man’s lips.
As a sense of murderous intent surged within him, he reached out with his other hand, firmly holding onto Song Qinghuan’s arm. He leaned in close to her ear and said lightly, “Woman, you didn’t even bother to ask Yihan about me, Si Chen. You dare yell at me like that? You know what’s coming next, right? I’m gonna make sure you pay with your life.”
Without waiting for Song Qinghuan to process his words, he pushed her hard.
Song Qinghuan was immediately pushed backwards by a strong force, falling unsteadily to the ground, her head hitting the glass coffee table with a dull thud.
The impact was quite strong, stars danced in front of her eyes as she nearly blacked out.
Song Qinghuan’s heart was pounding wildly, she had not yet regained her senses when she saw a hand coming into view. A slender finger gripped her collar and lifted her off the ground again.
“Ah…” Song Qinghuan could not help but scream out in pain at the pull on her clothes,
Her eyes widened in anger, ready to snap back, but saw the man named Si Chen raising his hand, ready to slap her…
