He didn't lower his voice at all, and everyone around him could hear it clearly, and the way they looked at him was filled with admiration.

It is always difficult to dislike people who dare to take responsibility for their mistakes and protect their loved ones.

"I know Yiyi did something wrong. My mother favors her child, which inevitably leaves a bad impression on my cousin's wife."

He has very beautiful eyes.

It's not a strict eye shape, but a combination of peach blossom eyes and phoenix eyes, with long and thick eyelashes, pupils of a light brown color, and elongated eye tails, exuding an indescribable tenderness and affection.

When he looks at someone sincerely, it is easy for people to feel his sincerity.

"I sincerely apologize... I wonder where my cousin and Qianqian are? I sincerely apologize to Yiyi."

"That's right." Ruan Xingchen looked at him intently for a moment before curling his lips into a smile and saying, "We're family, so there's no need to be so serious."

"It's my duty." Aunt Huo's eyes were filled with reluctance. After all, she had learned her lesson, but she still smiled. "Aunt was confused at the time. I felt sorry for Yiyi and scolded you without understanding the situation. I apologize to you, please don't take it to heart."

As an elder, she was so humble. If Ruan Xingchen insisted, she would probably be criticized.

"Aunt, you're too kind." Ruan Xingchen still maintained her nonchalant attitude and glanced lightly at Cheng Yi who lowered his head.

Cheng Yi clenched her teeth tightly, feeling that everyone's gazes were like thorns piercing her body, making her feel ashamed.

Bitch, bitch, bitch!

It was all because of those two bitches Ruan Xingchen and Huo Qianqian that she was so embarrassed!

She hated it so much that her eyes were about to bleed and she cursed madly in her heart.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Cheng Min frowned and said in a low voice: "Yiyi!"

Aunt Huo's face froze, and she smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, little girl."

"Yiyi." She gently pulled her daughter, winked, and pretended to scold her, "You didn't even say hello to your cousin's wife when you saw her. How can you be so rude?"

Cheng Yi's mind, which was filled with hatred, finally calmed down a little.

She knew that she had to do what her brother told her to do, and if she messed up, he would not forgive her.

Cheng Min was the pillar of the family. Her comfortable and enviable life all came from him. She couldn't anger him.

not to mention--

Thinking that Ruan Xingchen would be cheated out of all her money, and when the Huo family was completely taken over, she would have no choice but to return to her slums and live a miserable life, Cheng Yi's resentment finally subsided for a moment.

"Cousin, I really know I was wrong." Afraid of losing control of his expression, Cheng Yi simply lowered his head, and a hint of tears entered his voice: "I was bewildered at the time, and that's why I didn't protect Qianqian... Today, I want to apologize to Qianqian sincerely."

"And my cousin." Cheng Min added with a smile, "For something like this, I should always apologize to my cousin in person."

"Mr. Huo isn't feeling well, so there's no need to bother him with such a small matter." Ruan Xingchen's heart moved slightly, but he didn't show it on his face. He simply said in a calm voice, "I'm sure Mr. Cheng can understand, right?"

Cheng Min raised his eyes, and the gaze behind the lenses was like a sharp knife, scraping across her cheek inch by inch, as if he wanted to see through her entire body.

A normal person would probably feel scared if being stared at like that.

Ruan Xingchen, however, remained completely calm, his expression not changing at all. He waved and called over the waiter, "Please bring the fourth young lady over."

"Sister-in-law, you called me." Huo Qianqian's face flushed and she came over happily. After seeing who it was, her face instantly darkened.

He rolled his eyes inelegantly.

"Sister-in-law, my friend is still waiting for me... If there is nothing else, I will go over first."

Although she was not smart, after the last lesson she had completely cut off ties with those superficial sisters.

As the fourth daughter of the Huo family, and with many celebrities curious about Ruan Xingchen, they took roundabout ways to get close to her, so she was naturally still the center of attention.

She was having a great time showing off her sister-in-law to others, so she didn't want to see these annoying people spoiling her mood.

"Don't be impatient." Ruan Xingchen patted her hand gently, hinting, "Aunt and Mr. Cheng brought Miss Cheng to apologize... You are the one involved, you should listen."

Cheng Yi's eyes were red.

She has always looked down on Huo Qianqian, who came from a wealthy family but had no brains and was like a naive and innocent girl.

Now he had to apologize to her in public, and his heart was filled with resentment. He clenched his fists tightly, and his cheeks were hot.

She didn't say anything for a long time, and Huo Qianqian immediately lost her patience and curled her lips: "Stop dilly-dallying and wasting my time."

Aunt Huo's face darkened. Thinking of her son's instructions, she could only smile apologetically and said, "Qianqian, your cousin cried for a long time after she went back. She felt sorry for you. She really knew she was wrong."

He reached out and pushed Cheng Yi: "Yiyi, weren't you very regretful at home? Why do you become a saw-mouthed gourd in front of Qianqian?"

Even her mother is forcing her!

Why couldn't she understand how humiliating she was at that moment? Why couldn't she protect her behind her like Ruan Xingchen protected Huo Qianqian?

The embarrassment of social death almost overwhelmed Cheng Yi, and he couldn't help but take his anger out on his mother.

"Yiyi." Cheng Min raised his hand without changing his expression, and gently placed his big palm on her shoulder, pressing it twice lightly.

He still had a gentle smile on his face, and said softly, "What did brother say to you? If you admit your mistakes and correct them, you will still be brother's good sister. Be good and apologize to Qianqian."

He is the image of a good brother who teaches his younger sister.

Cheng Yi felt a chill in her heart and trembled uncontrollably, not daring to hesitate any longer: "Qianqian, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have accused you without knowing the truth... It's my fault for not trusting you and protecting you."

"I'm really not gloating. I'm just afraid that your stubbornness will anger Mr. Gu..." She raised her eyes and tears fell.

There was no need to pretend, she already felt extremely aggrieved, her face pale as she sobbed, "I handled it the wrong way, don't blame me, okay?"

Huo Qianqian clenched her teeth.

She could feel the gazes coming from all directions.

According to the rules of the upper class, since Cheng Yi had already apologized in person, she should forgive her generously and the cousins ​​should reconcile.

After all, blood is thicker than water, and a girl who does not hold grudges is a qualified socialite and a future good wife and mother.

But...why?

She is so unwilling!

Cheng Yi seemed sincere on the surface, but in fact she was trying desperately to shift the blame and had not completely admitted her mistake.

She was not deaf or stupid, and she heard clearly the last words Zhou Wenting shouted.

Regardless of whether it was Cheng Yi who ordered it, the part of her cousin's true face that she revealed was shocking, and she wanted to stay away from her.
