Chapter 279: After breaking off the engagement Mr. Si chased his wife to the crematorium!
Chapter 279: Backing Arrives
Bai Zhenhai, Xu Aiqin, and Bai Muyao all felt deeply humiliated!
Song Qiaoying actually said that hitting Bai Muyao was dirty and tiring work?
Just how dirty was Bai Mu Yao's face??
Seeing everyone from the Li family challenging them, only Li Yihan had yet to express his stance. Clinging to the last strand of hope, Bai Zhenhai tentatively called out, "Mr. Li..."
"You're still not taking action?" Li Yihan looked at him coldly, severing his last strand of hope, "Are you expecting others to do the dirty work for you?"
Everyone demanded that the Bai family educate their daughter properly.
In the end, Bai Zhenhai was left with no choice but to walk over, gritting his teeth, closing his eyes, and giving Bai Mu Yao a hard slap.
Having already received more than ten slaps from Ou Yan earlier, another one now left her unable to hear from one ear. The painful expression on her face didn't seem like an act.
But several noble ladies around still made sarcastic remarks.
"Hitting so lightly, one would think you're tickling your daughter..."
"You think you can turn the page with just one slap? I tell you, not a chance!"
"Insulting Mrs. Li is insulting all of us. If you can't do it, then let us!"
"If we don't smash this little trash's face today, your whole family of three won't be able to step out of this door!"
...
Bai Mu Yao looked at her parents being harassed by everyone, tears streaming down her face as she cried out, "Please don't pressure my parents anymore. It's my fault for speaking recklessly. I'll take responsibility for my actions. I'll take the next slap myself!"
She cried and slapped herself, her pitiful appearance seeming to have endured immense grievances.
But apart from her parents, no one fell for her act, especially those noble ladies, each making disgusted expressions.
"Yao Yao..." Bai Zhenhai couldn't bear to see her exerting so much force with each slap, feeling heartbroken.
"Enough, stop..." Xu Aiqin saw her slapping herself repeatedly, blood flowing from the corners of her mouth, and felt even more distressed, "Yao Yao, stop it! Mom's begging you... Look at how swollen your face is!"
Bai Muyao fiercely slapped herself over ten times, rendering herself unable to hear from both ears and blurring her vision further. Not knowing if she had slapped too hard, she suddenly collapsed to the ground, losing consciousness.
"Yao Yao, Yao Yao??" Xu Aiqin pushed through the crowd and rushed to support her, asking anxiously, "Are you okay?"
Seeing her daughter's swollen face, she couldn't hold back her tears.
"Mr. and Mrs. Li, my daughter has fainted. Can we put this matter behind us now?" Xu Aiqin hadn't finished her sentence.
Song Qiaoying began to count indifferently, "One."
"Her face is so swollen, and her mouth is bleeding. Mrs. Li, are you still unwilling to let it go? As an elder, why are you making it so difficult for a younger one? Aren't you afraid..."
"Two." Song Qiao Ying continued to count disinterestedly. What was there to be afraid of? Why should she be afraid of a few insignificant ants?
"Mrs. Li..."
Just as Song Qiaoying was about to say three, she saw Bai Mu Yao suddenly open her eyes and pretended to be flustered, asking, "Mom, why am I here? What happened to me?"
"Yao Yao, are you awake? Are you okay?" Xu Aiqin wanted to touch her face but was afraid of hurting her, unable to help but ask with concern, "You fainted just now. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Is your face in pain?"
"I'm not in the mood to watch your drama." Song Qiaoying interrupted directly, "I won't repeat myself a third time. I want your whole family to apologize to my daughter!"
It turned out that Bai Zhenhai and Xu Aiqin's casual apologies earlier weren't enough. Song Qiaoying wanted the whole family to bow and apologize to Ou Yan!
Several noble ladies also demanded their apology.
"No apology, and you won't be able to survive in Jing City from now on."
"Apologize!"
"Please apologize to Miss Ou Yan on behalf of your whole family!"
In the end, Bai Zhenhai, Xu Aiqin, and Bai Muyao could only endure the humiliation and come before Ou Yan, bowing ninety degrees.
"We're sorry."
They all apologized simultaneously, never having been so low and submissive in their lives.
"Yan Yan, it's Daddy... No, it's your former Daddy, who didn't educate your sister properly and made you unhappy. I'm sorry!"
"Yan Yan, please forgive Yao Yao. Seeing that we used to be a family, her former mom is begging you."
"Sorry, Sister... Ou, Ou Yan, please forgive me! I won't dare to speak recklessly again in the future."
...
The three of them remained bowed, not daring to lift their heads.
It was the first time in their lives that they had bowed and apologized to Ou Yan!
Si Yechen stroked Ou Yan's hair affectionately and said, "If you're still not satisfied, I can make them kneel down and apologize, or do you want to see them bankrupt?"
The faces of the Bai family trio turned pale, fearing that Si Yechen might actually make these threats a reality.
Because he had the capital to do so!
"No need." Ou Yan didn't want to see them anymore and said impatiently, "Just leave."
Bai Zhenhai snapped out of his daze, lifted his head, and looked at his daughter, whom they had once looked down upon and scorned, now becoming someone they couldn't afford to provoke. He felt a mixture of emotions.
He had thought that her original family was in a poor mountainous area, and he had wanted to distance himself from them...
But now...
"Thank you..." He couldn't believe that one day he would have to thank Ou Yan for sparing them and not humiliating them further...
He led Xu Aiqin and Bai Muyao, intending to leave dejectedly.
"Hold on."
A vigorous voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.
Everyone turned to look, only to see a spirited old man walking out.
He was dressed in expensive traditional Chinese clothing, with two blond, blue-eyed assistants following him step by step.
Bai Zhenhai immediately recognized him as the head of the renowned overseas venture capital group, the Ai Yue Group.
His group was even larger than the Ouyan Capital Group. He had initially made his fortune through small businesses and later focused on investments.
His gaze was sharp and ruthless. Once he set his sights on a project, he never missed. Over the decades of his career, he had invested in numerous industries, accumulating an extremely wealthy personal fortune.
Bai Zhenhai had had the privilege of meeting him a few times before and knew that he was an old friend of his mother, Li Yue'e. However, due to his frequent travels abroad, their encounters were few and far between.
Was he here today because of the land?
Just as Bai Zhenhai was thinking this, he realized that the old man had witnessed the scene just now. So, was he here to stand up for the Bai family out of consideration for his mother?
With this thought in mind, Bai Zhenhai felt like he finally had someone to rely on, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Yan, long time no see."
