Negotiation
Yuan Shu’s tone was commanding, but Shi Bin didn’t feel annoyed. Instead, he removed the gauze on his forehead and revealed the tender pink flesh that had just grown out of the wound.
“Mr. Tan, is this evidence enough?” Yuan Shu tapped the wound on Shi Bin’s forehead. Her cold fingertips made Shi Bin tremble.
“Your brother has repeatedly provoked Shi Bin and said bad things about Shi Bin’s family in front of him. Who would be able to tolerate it? You guys are allowed to provoke and bully the children of the Shi family, but we aren’t allowed to fight back?” Yuan Shu’s unyielding attitude was like a warm current that flowed from Shi Bin’s heart to his limbs and bones.
Shi Bin’s mother passed away very early on, so he was raised by a nanny. When he was young, he was ostracized by the children of other families and they all mocked him for being an unwanted child. He felt saddened by it, but only knew how to fight to deal with the bullying.
The result of his resistance was that people came and asked him to apologize. His father had to go to the company to settle matters, so he had no one to back him up but his eldest brother. Now, his eldest brother was gone, but people came to ask him to apologize again.
But this time, he had someone to back him up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn a corner where Yuan Shu couldn’t see, Shi Bin smiled.
After sensing that he had done something stupid, Shi Bin hurriedly suppressed his smile, but his ears slowly turned pink.
Tan Jing also saw the wounds on Shi Bin’s forehead and the corner of his mouth.
“The injuries aren’t that serious.” Tan Jing thought to himself.
However, when he saw the anger on Yuan Shu’s face, he suddenly couldn’t bring himself to say this. He could only change his words. “Madam, you’re right. My brother was indeed in the wrong, but this is just a matter between children after all. Why did you have to interfere?”
Tan Zhao’s secretary felt that something was wrong.
Didn’t President Tan want to use the excuse of helping the Third Young Master vent his anger to find out about the Shi family’s current situation? Why was he gradually falling at a disadvantage? What should they do later? Was he going to apologize to the Shi family? Was it too late to buy an apology gift now?
Yuan Shu sneered. “It was originally just a conflict between children. I taught Tan Zhao a lesson for Shi Bin. If you’re unconvinced, you can also teach me a lesson for Tan Zhao.” Yuan Shu paused for a moment and changed the topic. “But didn’t you come this time to escalate the matter to involve the reputation of the two families?
Tan Jing was stunned when he saw Yuan Shu’s expression suddenly change.
Damn, was this woman that smart?
No one had told him! Didn’t they say that she was a beautiful idiot?
Yuan Shu’s explanation rendered Tan Jing speechless.
Before he could think of a reply, Yuan Shu spoke again. “Mr. Tan, it’s not good to let you return empty-handed. There has to be a solution, so why don’t we fight?”
Tan Jing rejected her without thinking. “I don’t hit women.”
However, when he turned around, he saw that the fake smile on Yuan Shu’s face was gone. She stared at him coldly.
These words seemed offensive, so Tan Jing hurriedly explained, “Madam, I don’t mean to look down on you. I just want to say that I don’t fight with women. How about this? This matter was caused by my brother’s sharp tongue, so I’ll apologize on his behalf. Let’s forget about this matter, okay?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShi Bin and Tan Jing’s secretary were dumbfounded. The second young master of the Tan family was famous for being stubborn and protective. When had he ever apologized to people? Yuan Shu should give in this time.
However, Yuan Shu clearly didn’t think so. She walked towards Tan Jing step by step.
“If you say forget it, we have to forget it? Then wouldn’t you have come for nothing today? The child’s matter has been resolved, but what if outsiders say that the Shi family is in decline now and anyone can enter and leave at will?”
As Tan Jing looked down at Yuan Shu, he was amused.
Otherwise, what? Did she want to settle scores with him?
Yuan Shu wouldn’t be considered short in a group of women, but in front of him, she was like a kitten who could only bluff. If she really wanted to fight him, she would be overestimating herself.
Yuan Shu was indeed capable. Shi Xiao had been missing for more than half a month, but the Shi family was still in good order. He had underestimated her.
But a fight?
She couldn’t beat him!
“Then what do you mean, Madam?”
