Chapter 230: 230: Funeral Turmoil, Xu Fang Disciplining Soone (Second Update Chapter 230: 230: Funeral Turmoil, Xu Fang Disciplining Soone (Second Update She sniffled, her eyes growing hot, “You hit !”
Xue Baoyi rubbed the bump on the back of her head, “When did I hit you?”
She huffed, “Just go away.”
Fine, he left, “Then take care of yourself.” He looked back three steps at a ti, still feverish, his eyes red and sowhat pitiful, “If you have ti at ho, you can play so gas.”
Fang Lixiang turned and ran towards ho.
Not playing anymore! Never playing again!
The next day, Lin Shang posted on Weibo to debunk rumors for Fang Lixiang and posted a photo of Fang Lixiang visiting the hospital, passing by the obstetrics and gynecology departnt.
Just as Fang Lixiang’s scandal subsided, Bai Li’s scandal exploded. According to an ‘inford source’, Bai Li had ordered two host dudes at Fusheng Inn the previous night.
With pictures, the news was undeniable and the topic surged in popularity. With such scandal breaking, the agency did not clarify imdiately, which likely ant the rumors were true.
With such damaging scandal, Bai Li’s career in this circle was over.
On Sunday, the Luo Family held a funeral, and from morning, private cars hadn’t ceased at the funeral ho’s entrance.
Old Master Luo couldn’t bear the pain of losing his son, fell ill and never recovered. The funeral was managed by his daughter-in-law, Ms. Xu. The Luo Family had nurous illegitimate daughters outside, but none could enter the mourning hall, only Luo Qinghe and Luo Yinghe were guarding the spirit.
Luo Yinghe’s knees hurt from kneeling, she rubbed them and stood up.
Xu Yunci asked her, “Where are you going?”
She made up an excuse on the spot, “I’m going out to take a call.”
As soon as she went out, her phone really did ring.
It was her friend in the circle, Shen Lin, also a Tianxing artist, diocre in talent and resources, who typically adored her.
“Yinghe, coming out to play?”
Luo Yinghe responded flatly, “Not going.”
“What’s wrong?”
Luo Yinghe’s tone was harsh, “Don’t you watch the news? Didn’t you know soone in my family died?”
Shen Lin was montarily embarrassed, quickly softened her tone to apologize, “I didn’t know about it, sorry.”
Luo Yinghe didn’t want to argue, “Where did you guys go?”
“North City has a new bar, a lot of people from the circle went.” Shen Lin knew her preferences well and ntioned, “The day before yesterday, my friend even saw Xiao Yusheng at the bar.”
Luo Yinghe’s crush on Xiao Yusheng was no secret in the circle.
“Yusheng went to such a place?”
Shen Lin replied, “Seems he was there for a celebration.”
ntioning Xiao Yusheng, Luo Yinghe beca animated, “My Yusheng is so well-behaved, he definitely wouldn’t go by himself.”
“Exactly, your Yusheng is the best behaved.”
Luo Yinghe agreed, then chattered so more, “It’s so annoying, the funeral is boring to death.”
Shen Lin knew she and Luo Changde had no close relationship and didn’t tiptoe around, “Do you also have to cry at the funeral?”
“Luo Qinghe isn’t crying, why should I? It’s so boring anyway, they didn’t even find the body, what’s the point of a funeral? There’s just a pile of clothes in the coffin, he’s dead and still troubling people—”
Xu Yunci overheard all this from behind, she interrupted before Luo Yinghe could continue, “Luo Yinghe!”
Luo Yinghe turned back to look, “Not talking about this anymore.” She hung up the phone, “What do you want?”
“How can you speak like that.” Xu Yunci was usually ek, seldom this harsh.
Luo Yinghe turned defiant, “What did I say?”
Xu Yunci scolded, “Your uncle is gone, can’t you show him so respect?”
She sneered, indifferent, “What does his being gone have to do with ?”
She hated Luo Changde, the first ti she saw him co out of Xu Yunci’s room disheveled when she was eight, and she’d loathed him ever since.
Xu Yunci, her eyes red with anger, “He is your uncle, how can you speak such heartless words.”
Luo Yinghe scoffed, “I’m heartless, but not as much as you, with your deep and aningful affair.”
Xu Yunci widened her eyes in disbelief, “What did you say?”
“You and your lover—”
Before she could finish, a heavy slap landed on her face.
The right side of her cheek stung painfully. She clenched her jaw, glaring at Xu Yunci with indignation, “You hit ?” Xu Yunci had never hit her before; this was the first ti.
“Yinghe, Yinghe.” Regretting her action imdiately, Xu Yunci reached out to grab her daughter’s hand.
Luo Yinghe shook her off: “Don’t touch !”
Xu Yunci’s eyes reddened, “Mom didn’t an to.”
“Luo Qinghe was right,” she paused, looking directly into her mother’s eyes, and said, “Mom, you’re really despicable.”
Having said that, she turned and walked away.
Around the corner, there was the sound of a cane hitting the ground. She was running too fast and couldn’t stop in ti, crashing into soone.
Already upset from the encounter with Xu Yunci, this collision made her even more furious: “Are you blind, you crippled fool!”
Zhou Qingrang’s cane fell to the ground. His legs weren’t very stable, and he staggered backward, but soone behind him caught him.
He turned around.
It was a girl dressed in all black.
After venting her anger, Luo Yinghe couldn’t be bothered and turned to leave, but a foot stretched out blocked her way.
“Why are you blocking my way, move it!”
Zhou Xufang walked up to Zhou Qingrang, picked up the cane from the ground: “Apologize.”
Luo Yinghe’s tone was disdainful, her attitude extrely poor: “Apologize for what?”
Zhou Xufang returned the cane to Zhou Qingrang, he thanked her, and she responded with “You’re welco”, then turned to Luo Yinghe with a colder gaze: “Apologize to him.”
Luo Yinghe recognized Zhou Xufang, the two had had conflicts on set before, and naturally didn’t offer a pleasant expression: “He bumped into , why should I apologize.”
Zhou Xufang corrected her in a stern tone: “You bumped into him, I saw it.”
“Mind your own business.”
She repeated again: “Apologize.”
Luo Yinghe, with a tone full of mockery and arrogance, replied: “What can you do if I don’t apologize?”
“You’re not leaving if you don’t apologize.”
Zhou Xufang’s tone was flat, her face stern, her expression serious.
Luo Yinghe snorted and stubbornly tried to leave.
Zhou Xufang grabbed her by the collar and pulled; Luo Yinghe’s back slamd into the wall. She beca furiously embarrassed and charged forward: “Zhou Xu—”
Zhou Xufang pressed down on her shoulder and pushed hard: “Apologize.”
Luo Yinghe, in pain, struggled briefly but couldn’t move. Gritting her teeth, she glared at Zhou Xufang and reluctantly said, “I’m sorry.”
Zhou Xufang didn’t let go, she asked Zhou Qingrang, “Do you forgive her?”
Zhou Qingrang nodded, smiling.
Only then did Zhou Xufang release her: “He’s forgiven you, you can go now.”
Luo Yinghe moved her shoulders that had beco numb from the pressure, gave Zhou Xufang a sidelong glance, and mocked: “Big shot now that you’re cozy with Jiang Zhi, huh!”
She snorted and walked away.
Zhou Qingrang, leaning on his cane, went over: “Thank you.”
Zhou Xufang said: “You’re welco.”
He smiled gently, his deanor polite: “I haven’t had the chance to thank you since last ti at the coffee shop.”
Zhou Xufang, normally not very eloquent with strangers, couldn’t think of what to say and quoted a line from a novel: “It was nothing, hardly worth ntioning.”
His eyes smiling warmly, he elegantly responded: “A lifesaving grace is a debt I’ll never forget.”
She scratched her head and smiled shyly.
