BXBX NOVEL Chapter 81 - 81: No
“I didn’t teach my son well, and Pan Ning is acting so arbitrarily.” As he spoke,
Pan Youcheng turned to look at Pan Ning, and his tone suddenly became stern. “What are you waiting for, you brat? Come over and apologize to Miss Lu.” Pan Ning, who had been scolded, dragged his feet forward unwillingly like a defeated rooster.
When he saw Lu Haiqiao, he recalled the embarrassment that this woman had caused him at the Garden View Restaurant that day. Even if no one had seen it at that time, he still couldn’t get over his frustration.
While he hesitated, Pan Youcheng’s tone turned stern. “Pan Ning! Have you forgotten what I said before we came?”
Pan Ning pursed his lips in grievance and didn’t say anything.
Pan Youcheng couldn’t help but step forward and kick him in the back of his knee. “I told you to apologize. Why? Are you mute?”
Pan Ning, who was completely unprepared, felt a piercing pain. At the same time, he lost his balance and knelt on one knee.
“Lu Haiqiao, I…”
He had just opened his mouth when Pan Youcheng hit the back of his head again.
“Is that how you’re supposed to address Miss Lu?” Pan Ning’s eyes were filled with anger, but he had no choice but to remain humble. He pursed his lips tightly. After a few seconds of internal struggle, he said in a low voice, “Miss Lu, I’m sorry.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Pan Youcheng’s voice exploded in his ear. “Is that an apology? What are you sorry for?”
Damn…
Due to his father’s presence, Pan Ning maintained his kneeling posture.
He clenched his fists by his side and gritted his teeth. “That night was a misunderstanding. You didn’t hurt me. I wanted to hurt you and accidentally hurt my face. Later, I was indignant and wanted to take revenge, so I used my connections to falsely accuse you. That’s all!”
At this moment, a nosy colleague stuck her head over to observe Pan Ning’s face.
There was a thin scar on his cheek. If one didn’t look carefully, they wouldn’t notice it at all.
That colleague nudged the people around her and discussed among themselves. “Is he a man or not? He called that an injury?”
“I think he must have found Lu Haiqiao pretty and wanted to force himself on her. However, she refused, so he tried to get back at her. How shameless, doing that to a woman.”
Hearing this, Lu Haiqiao smiled sarcastically.
What a bunch of fence-sitters.
Ignoring the discussions of others, Pan Youcheng looked at Lu Haiqiao sincerely. “Miss Lu, look, Pan Ning has apologized and everything has been explained clearly. Why don’t we just let it go? Please forgive him. I promise there won’t be a next time.”
Hearing this, Lu Haiqiao lowered her eyes and glanced at Pan Ning. Then, she smiled and said slowly, “No.”
Pan Youcheng didn’t expect such an answer. The speech that he had thought of was stuck in his throat. He didn’t know what to say.
Hearing this, Pan Ning couldn’t hold back his anger. “Lu Haiqiao, don’t be so shameless. You…”
“Shut up!” Pan Youcheng slapped him and interrupted him.
Lu Haiqiao wasn’t in the mood to watch their show.
She looked down at her neatly trimmed fingernails. “Mr. Pan, I’m the victim in this matter, but because of your son, everyone around me now treats me as a vicious criminal. Moreover, I’m a media person.. If a media person is thought to have misconduct, would anyone believe what I report?”
