Chapter 369: What’s Your Position
Although Jiang Haoxuan didn’t like Lin Fei’er, how dare this woman belittle his ability in that respect directly?
As a man, no matter what, it was a great shame to be ridiculed by a woman!
Lin Fei’er’s att.i.tude really made Jiang Haoxuan angry but he couldn’t argue with Lin Fei’er about this.
Regardless of whether or not it was true, it was really insulting to discuss this topic in broad daylight.
Although he was angry, he had indeed done something wrong to hurt Lin Fei’er last night. So, no matter how indignant Jiang Haoxuan was, he couldn’t take it out on Lin Fei’er.
“Miss Lin, I know you don’t want to see me now, but are you sure you don’t want the compensation?”
Jiang Haoxuan had a restrained expression. He looked at Lin Fei’er for a moment, trying to find another expression on her face other than disgust and mockery.
Lin Fei’er glanced at Jiang Haoxuan impatiently. The irony on the corners of her lips could not be concealed.
“Mr. Jiang, at least you are aware and observant. I really don’t want to see you. Please get out of my sight immediately, okay?”
Jiang Haoxuan was not satisfied with Lin Fei’er’s att.i.tude. He shook his head and said, “Lin Fei’er, you are really…”
Hearing Jiang Haoxuan calling her full name, Lin Fei’er felt more and more uncomfortable.
“I’ll make it clear. We’re both adults. In the future, I hope that Mr. Jiang and I will just regard yesterday’s incident as if nothing had happened. No one will know what happened last night except for us. I won’t say anything. Please respect yourself, Mr. Jiang!”
Jiang Haoxuan’s eyes fell directly on Lin Fei’er and he gave a wry smile. This was his first time being told to respect himself and also the first time someone had so directly refused his kindness.
Anyway, it was not a pleasant feeling.
Jiang Haoxuan had never been in contact with a carefree but fierce girl like Lin Fei’er in his usual social circle. He always thought that a woman like Lin Fei’er was not very likeable.
If only everyone was as sweet and lovely as An’ning…
Seeing that Lin Fei’er wanted to leave, Jiang Haoxuan subconsciously wanted to stop her.
After all, it was he who did something wrong to her last night. If he didn’t give any compensation, he would always have a dead knot in his heart.
Lin Fei’er’s arm was held by Jiang Haoxuan. She felt that she had never met such an unreasonable man.
She was the one who had suffered loss last night. She took the initiative to say that it was okay to regard the past as nothing. Why was Jiang Haoxuan, a grown man, still entangled in the past?
Lin Fei’er glared at Jiang Haoxuan angrily and felt the heat in her eyes rising.
“Jiang Haoxuan, are you done? You won’t leave and you’re stopping me from doing so?”
While they were outside, Su Wan, who had been at the hotel, could not sit still.
They said to only talk for five minutes. Why weren’t Jiang Haoxuan and Lin Fei’er back yet?
The value of the Patek Philippe watch was indeed fascinating to some people but Su Wan did not believe that her friend was greedy.
Moreover, Lin Fei’er didn’t look well this morning. Su Wan was afraid that her mood would be even worse after being wronged, making the initially simple matter messier than it had to be.
Su Wan pursed her lips and said to Jiang Xuecheng, “They have been out for so long. I’m afraid that something has happened to them. I’ll go and have a look first.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Jiang Xuecheng said this lightly, and then immediately went out of the hotel entrance with Su Wan.
When Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng left, Sheng An’ning was unwilling to simply sit there and dawdle, so she quickly chased after them.
The three people came out one after another and quickly saw the young man and woman across the road tugging at one another.
Seeing the scene before her, Su Wan’s beautiful eyes widened instantly.
Why did it look like Jiang Haoxuan was chasing after Lin Fei’er to apologize but Lin Fei’er wasn’t agreeing?
This scene wasn’t right…
They also looked like a little couple fighting.
Su Wan shook her head and laughed at her strange imagination.
Because Su Wan didn’t know about last night’s incident, she didn’t think much about it.
Seeing Su Wan and the other two people, Lin Fei’er’s eyes suddenly lit up and she waved to Su Wan.
“Wan, could you please send me home?”
Although Lin Fei’er had already turned down Su Wan’s prior offer to send her home and had said she would take a taxi back, Jiang Haoxuan was too detestable, even stopping her from hailing a taxi.
Lin Fei’er had no choice but to take the awkward position of Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng’s third wheel for now.
Now that the other people were here, Jiang Haoxuan naturally withdrew his hand but seeing Sheng An’ning, Jiang Haoxuan looked a little uneasy at once.
Subconsciously, Jiang Haoxuan felt that he had done something to betray Sheng An’ning yesterday.
However, on second thought, he and Sheng An’ning were not a couple and had no romantic relations.h.i.+p. Sheng An’ning did not like him that way and had repeatedly postponed the engagement. Jiang Haoxuan’s faint sense of guilt was finally suppressed.
Sheng An’ning was very sharp. She was vaguely aware of the strange atmosphere between Jiang Haoxuan and Lin Fei’er.
Lin Fei’er had stolen Jiang Haoxuan’s watch, so why did Jiang Haoxuan look at Lin Fei’er so apologetically?
Was it possible that Lin Fei’er had successfully proved her innocence within a few minutes?
Sheng An’ning looked at Jiang Haoxuan and Lin Fei’er in astonishment and questioned, “Haoxuan, didn’t Miss Lin steal your Patek Philippe watch?”
Seeing how Jiang Haoxuan looked now, Sheng An’ning naturally wouldn’t be aggressive like just now.
The voice which was as sweet as a warbler sounded, bringing Jiang Haoxuan who was still in trance back to reality.
Jiang Haoxuan pursed his lips and tried to smile naturally. ” We’ve misunderstood Miss Lin and jumped to conclusions too quickly. She didn’t steal my watch.”
Jiang Haoxuan spoke and glanced at Lin Fei’er, but he saw that her bright face was still full of ridicule, as if she was laughing at him.
Jiang Haoxuan’s heart felt a pang of unhappiness, but he remained calm on the surface.
Sheng An’ning didn’t believe Jiang Haoxuan’s simple words. She looked at Lin Fei’er suspiciously, and the light in her eyes was contemptuous and full of disbelief.
In Sheng An’ning’s eyes, Lin Fei’er, a girl of ordinary status, was of course inferior to others. Moreover, the Patek Philippe watch was so valuable, would she really not be greedy?
“Haoxuan, I’m curious about Miss Lin’s explanation on how the watch got into her bag.”
A trace of embarra.s.sment flashed across Jiang Haoxuan’s face. Sheng An’ning insisted on knowing the details and he didn’t know what to say.
Lin Fei’er, who had been standing by the side, couldn’t listen on any more. This white lotus was insinuating that she had stolen something. Jiang Haoxuan could bear it, but she couldn’t.
Lin Fei’er looked at Sheng An’ning.
“Miss Sheng, now that the owner has said I’m innocent, what position are you in to ask these questions? What’s more, shouldn’t you apologize for the way you accused me and threatened to send me to prison?”
