Chapter 912 - 912 Apologize Immediately
912 Apologize Immediately
Moreover, Ji Yan himself was exceptional. He had defeated countless men and was the dream lover of many women. Such a man was now willing to lower his head in front of a woman and put himself in an even lower position.
At this moment, even if everyone looked down on Shen Hanxing, even if they had slandered and criticized her, they had to admit that Shen Hanxing had the ability. This President Ji, who could support the Ji Corporation at his nineteenth and had created countless legends, loved her dearly.
Shen Hanxing was destined to be an amazing woman.
Bai Youyou’s heart ached. As a woman who loved Ji Yan so much, the shock she received would only be greater.
“No, it shouldn’t be like this…” Bai Youyou shook her head desperately. She didn’t want to believe this fact. How could she? Her Brother Ji Yan, the man she had wanted to marry since she was young. How could he love another woman so much? Shen Hanxing was just a piece of trash from the slums. What right did she have to win Brother Ji Yan’s heart? She would not accept it!
“Miss Bai.” However, Ji Yan did not care about Bai Youyou’s feelings at all. Not only would he not comfort her at this moment, but he coldly spoke, adding another blow to Bai Youyou’s already wounded heart.
Ji Yan took a step forward, his tall figure approaching. “Miss Bai, you insulted my wife without reason, tarnishing her reputation on our Ji family’s territory. Do you really think the Ji family is easy to bully?”
“Brother Ji Yan…” Bai Youyou widened her eyes, tears welling up, shaking her head. “No, it’s not like that, it can’t be like this…” She had longed to return to the country, wanting to win back the man she loved, and now he stood in front of her, looking at her so seriously, his jet-black eyes reflecting her figure. But what was tragically clear to her was that his attention at this moment was all because of another woman.
This realization caused Bai Youyou intense pain in her chest, almost making her spit blood! She didn’t understand why, why things had turned out like this. She bit her lip and said pitifully, “Brother Ji Yan, please don’t let yourself be deceived by Shen Hanxing any longer. There must be something behind all this.”
“Enough!” Ji Yan saw that Bai Youyou showed no signs of remorse and even wanted to continue insulting Shen Hanxing. His expression turned completely cold, and he said without emotion, “Miss Bai, that’s enough. I’m standing here, not to listen to you badmouthing my wife. I need an explanation from the Bai family.”
Seeing Bai Youyou’s puzzled expression, as if she didn’t understand the implications of his words, Ji Yan didn’t mind making it clearer, “I’m quite satisfied with the current situation in S City, and I don’t need the Bai family to have a share. Do you understand?”
Bai Youyou’s face turned pale, and the light in her eyes extinguished inch by inch. Brother Ji Yan was actually using the Bai family to threaten her?
“Why are you so cruel to me, Brother Ji Yan?” Bai Youyou covered her chest in pain, feeling so overwhelmed that she could hardly breathe. “Even if I said something wrong, I must be deceived by someone. How can you treat me like this? You can’t…” Could it be that their childhood friendship was all a lie?
“I can,” Ji Yan replied decisively. “I don’t care about any reasons or explanations. All I know is that you made my wife unhappy. I won’t let anyone who hurts my wife go unpunished.” He lifted his gaze, his fierce eyes scanning around, as if proclaiming his sovereignty like a fierce beast. “My wife is someone I hold dear in my heart. I won’t allow anyone to harm her.”
The more resolute Ji Yan’s att.i.tude, the deeper his affection for Shen Hanxing, the greater the impact on Bai Youyou. She took two steps back, unable to bear it, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face, choking on her words. She realized clearly that she had lost, lost completely. Ji Yan’s heart was no longer with her. No matter how crazy or desperate she became, she was just a laughingstock, provoking ridicule for no reason.
But she couldn’t accept it! Bai Youyou couldn’t understand where she had lost, and what tortured her the most was that Ji Yan was the perfect prince in her mind, her future husband. Yet, he looked at her with cold eyes, as if looking at an enemy. His cold lips parted, uttering words without warmth, “Apologize immediately.”
Facing Bai Youyou’s incredulous gaze, Ji Yan said expressionlessly, “Miss Bai, do you really think shedding a few tears can erase the fact that you slandered and insulted my wife?”
