Chapter 485: I Went To Get a Blanket
What Xia Xibei had done left everyone utterly flabbergasted.
She just threw Zhang Yiqi into the water like that!
That was brutal!
Xia Qinghan stared at Xia Xibei with wide eyes, chills pouring down her spine.
This was absolutely horrendous!
Zhang Yiqi could swim. After floundering a little in the water and gulping down some water, she managed to recover herself.
“Xia Xibei!”
She was shrieking in the water. Her make-up and the style that she had spent so much time on were all ruined now, causing her to choke on her fury.
Xia Xibei turned around and shot her a vicious glance which frightened her so much that she nearly sank into the water once again.
The look in her eyes was terrifying!
“Xia Xibei, are you crazy?!”
Xia Qinghan couldn’t believe it.
“Xia Xibei!” Zhang Yiqi crawled out from the pool and stormed angrily towards Xia Xibei while clasping her heavy dress. “You’re too much!”
“I’m too much?” Xia Xibei stared back at her with an icy, precarious look in her eyes. “You purposely pushed Luo into the water. Who’s being too much?”
“I told you, I didn’t mean it!” Zhang Yiqi argued. “I slipped!”
“You slipped?” Xia Xibei shot her a cold glance, “We could take a look at the security camera and see if you really didn’t mean it!”
Zhang Yiqi froze at that moment.
Of course she meant it.
She was furious when she saw Tang Luo, which made her think of what Zhong Xianjing said to her a while ago.
That was why she pushed Tang Luo into the water.
How could she even have known that Tang Luo couldn’t swim?! All she wanted was to do was embarra.s.s Tang Luo.
She never thought that Xia Xibei would take such forthright, brutal revenge on her!
Wasn’t she afraid of payback?!
“You shouldn’t have done that no matter what happened, right?”
Xia Qinghan stepped forth and defended her friend.
“What? You’re saying that I can’t take revenge even if she did it first?” Xia Xibei sneered, “That really is your double standard at its finest, huh?!”
“Hey!” Zhang Yiqi was so furious that her chest started aching.
“Ms. Xia, you’ve gone overboard,” a cold, detached voice sounded, tinged with condescending arrogance. “We’re all civilized people. Can’t we just sit down and talk things out properly?”
Xia Xibei turned around and froze for a second.
Was that Qiao Yanjue standing behind Li Weiyun?
And he turned around and left right after seeing her?!
He left?!
Xia Xibei’s heart sank, and her face turned extremely awful as fire began raging in her chest.
But Li Weiyun took it as Xia Xibei being ashamed, which only fueled her contempt.
“Problems can be solved through communication. There’s no need to resort to such brutal means.”
It was no wonder she was an orphan without parents to watch after her. How low-cla.s.s of her to solve problems in such barbarous ways.
Xia Xibei came to her senses, and laughed humorlessly, “So I reckon your so-called ‘civilized way’ is to stop others from protecting themselves although you are the real evildoers?! Well, that’s an eye-opener for me!”
Li Weiyun’s face turned cold. She hadn’t expected this little girl to be so stubborn and uncultured.
“Tonight is the Mo family’s big day. It’s really not an appropriate place for you to misbehave, is it?”
“Ha! Who picked the fight first? Are you blind or r.e.t.a.r.ded? I don’t remember you falling into the pool, but why does your brain seem so dysfunctional?”
Her insults put horrified looks on the trio’s faces. She had a silver tongue!
“You-”
“Stop it.”
Qiao Yanjue returned to the scene with a huge blanket in hand, which he wrapped around Xia Xibei’s damp body.
“Go change your clothes, or you’re gonna catch a cold.”
Xia Xibei’s anger was instantly doused by the blanket around her. Stunned, she stared at Qiao Yanjue.
“You… I thought you left?”
Qiao Yanjue chortled through his anger, “I went to get a blanket for you! Why can’t you look after yourself? Look at you, you’re all soaked!”
Li Weiyun froze as she listened to their intimate conversation.
