Jiang Youtian did not respond to him. Her mind was filled with worry. What if Lu Yunxiao really did not intend to forgive her sister? With his power, it would not be a problem for their entire Jiang Family to disappear from Ocean City overnight.
Wang Jiangbei, on the other hand, had been sizing up Jiang Youyi and Lu Yunxiao from the corner of his eye. He was expressionless, but he found it funny. It had been a long time since he had seen such an interesting scene.
After a few minutes, Lu Yunxiao said calmly, “It’s too insincere to just apologize.”
“Then what do you want me to do?” Jiang Youyi straightened her neck. “Why don’t you beat me up to vent your anger?”
Unexpectedly, Lu Yunxiao said something shocking in the next second. “I won’t fuss about it after you kiss me.”
“What did you say?” Jiang Youyi thought that there was something wrong with her ears, so she asked again.
At this moment, Jiang Youtian and Lin Feng were dumbfounded. They did not expect Lu Yunxiao to go so far.
Lu Yunxiao looked at the young lady in front of him, who was frowning slightly. He couldn’t help but laugh. “I don’t want to repeat myself. You’ve already heard it, right?”
Jiang Youyi grabbed her skirt awkwardly. “President Lu, are you joking with me?”
“I’m serious, Jiang Youyi. You have to apologize with a good attitude.” His voice was magnetic and pleasant to the ear. Jiang Youyi was in an inappropriate daze. She actually felt that the other party’s voice was especially seductive when he said her name. Previously, when she was with Xu Yuning, he often called her name affectionately, but she had never felt anything.
Facing this man she had only met once, she actually started to feel nervous when she heard him call her name with a smile.
“President Lu, it’s like this—” Jiang Youtian wanted to help her sister out, but Lu Yunxiao looked at her coldly with an impatient expression. Jiang Youtian could only shut up obediently and stand at the side as a background.
Seeing Jiang Youtian’s troubled expression, Lin Feng lowered his voice and comforted her. “Don’t be afraid. Brother Lu isn’t a bad person. He won’t make things difficult for your sister.”
Jiang Youtian wanted to scold Lin Feng. Lu Yunxiao wanted the young lady to kiss him the first time they met. If this wasn’t difficult, what was?
Jiang Youyi pursed her lips and looked at the man in front of her. Lu Yunxiao looked at her calmly, but his dark eyes were bottomless.
She mustered her courage and said, “President Lu, that’s enough. I did say your name at the wedding and apologized sincerely for causing you trouble. If I wasn’t afraid that my sister would be in a difficult position today, I definitely wouldn’t have come to apologize to you. After all, your Weibo post also brought me a lot of trouble. Your request is too much. Do you really think you’re the domineering president in the novels? Do you want a girl to kiss you casually? To put it seriously, this is called sexual harassment, understand?”
“Youyi, how can you say that?!” Jiang Youtian panicked when she saw her sister scolding Lu Yunxiao recklessly.
“It’s fine. Let her continue.” Lu Yunxiao was not angry. He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the woman in front of him with interest.
“Of course I have to continue. Don’t go too far. If it’s because of what I said at the wedding, didn’t I apologize to you that day? In your car. Don’t say that you forgot.”
There was no emotion in Lu Yunxiao’s eyes, nor did he respond to her.
However, the other three people present were dumbfounded. They had no idea what Lu Yunxiao and Jiang Youyi had met on the day of the wedding.
“Didn’t today’s farce start because of you?”
“It’s me,” Lu Yunxiao admitted.
“Then why should I apologize to you? You were the one who started the trouble first. Do you think you can distort the truth and say the wrong thing is right just because you’re richer and have more status than me?”
“Youyi, don’t talk nonsense.” Jiang Youtian’s heart sank to the bottom. If she had known that her sister had such a deep grudge against Lu Yunxiao, she wouldn’t have brought the two of them together.
“Sister, I know your good intentions. You’re afraid that he’ll take revenge on me and the Jiang Family. However, this matter started because of me. It’s just a personal grudge between me and President Lu. President Lu won’t take his anger out on the Jiang Family because of this, right?” With that, Jiang Youyi straightened her back and stared at Lu Yunxiao neither servile nor overbearing.
“You’re quite proficient at goading me.”
“What you think is your own business. If you really take revenge on my family because of the grudge between the two of us, then you, the richest man, are really tasteless. You didn’t rely on strength to have your current achievements, but luck, right?”
“Do you know what you’re talking about?” Lu Yunxiao narrowed his eyes dangerously.
