Madam Is A Sensational Figure In The City Chapter 2: So What If I Don’t Want To Apologize?

Upon hearing that Cheng Ruoxue intended to summon Third Young Master Huo, Director Li’s smile became deferential as he spoke, “Ruoxue, it’s merely a minor issue. There’s no need to trouble Third Young Master over this.”

Third Young Master Huo served as the investor for their current drama series, and Cheng Ruoxue was his girlfriend. If she were to voice a complaint to him…

After a moment of contemplation, Director Li looked towards Yan Jinyi with an awkward expression and stated, “Well, Jinyi, you were the one who kicked Ruoxue earlier. Please apologize to her promptly. I’m confident Ruoxue will be understanding.”

She knew very well whether the detestable Cheng Ruoxue would hold a grudge, but since Cheng Ruoxue had previously slapped her, Yan Jinyi was determined to reciprocate!

“Why should I offer an apology?”

Director Li, taken aback by Yan Jinyi’s unexpected response, as she was usually compliant, inquired in surprise, “Jinyi, after all, Ruoxue…”

To everyone’s astonishment, Cheng Ruoxue suddenly darted past them like a swift breeze, crying out in a coquettish tone, “Third Young Master, a D-list celebrity has mistreated me, kicking me during our filming. My stomach is in so much pain now. Third Young Master~”

As soon as the crew members noticed Third Young Master Huo’s arrival, they instinctively retreated, harboring secret fears for Yan Jinyi, especially after overhearing Cheng Ruoxue’s words.

They mused, ‘Yan Jinyi is finished today. It’s common knowledge how vindictive this malicious and sharp-tongued Third Young Master Huo is. Furthermore, he is incredibly protective.’

Regardless of how long his infatuation with Cheng Ruoxue might last, she was, for the moment, his girlfriend.

‘Third Young Master Huo Zihang?’

Yan Jinyi swiftly accessed information regarding this esteemed Third Young Master. Upon considering his connection to the original owner of her current body, she couldn’t help but utter a curse.

Huo Zihang, happening to be in the vicinity of the studio when he received a call from Cheng Ruoxue’s manager, decided to make a detour and observe the situation.

Although Cheng Ruoxue could be rather loud and prone to gossip, she was, undeniably, his current girlfriend. Anyone who dared to trouble her would be provoking him.

Hearing her tearful account, Huo Zihang’s expression turned hostile as he demanded, “Who was it that bullied you?”

Cheng Ruoxue’s portrayal of distress intensified as she tearfully pointed towards Yan Jinyi, lamenting, “We were meant to film the scene where I confront the home wrecker, and a slap was a required part of it. Moreover, I only lightly touched her face, yet she retaliated with a kick!”

While recounting this, Cheng Ruoxue made a concerted effort to conjure tears and gestured towards the shoe imprint visible on her blouse. “Third Young Master, you gifted me this dress, and I specifically chose to wear it today for this scene. Third Young Master, this woman has always shown animosity towards me. Today, she even…”

Yan Jinyi lifted her eyelids, casting a cold gaze upon Cheng Ruoxue.

She appeared refined, yet harbored a heart filled with malice.

‘Lightly touched my face?’

‘Where did the handprint on my face originate then?’

Huo Zihang recognized the dress Cheng Ruoxue was wearing. He then raised his head, his gaze settling coolly on Yan Jinyi.

‘She’s quite beautiful!’

‘Huh?’

‘Why does this woman seem vaguely familiar?’

As a sense of confusion began to cloud his thoughts, Cheng Ruoxue proceeded to escalate the situation. “Third Young Master, setting aside her actions against me, she has also displayed extreme disrespect towards you. Director Li asked her to apologize to me on your behalf, but she flatly refused.”

‘Oh?’

Huo Zihang found himself unwilling to delve into the reason for her apparent familiarity.

He was a prominent and influential figure in Shenyang, commanding respect and polite greetings from all. Yet, this woman had the audacity to show him disregard.

Pointing directly at Yan Jinyi, Huo Zihang declared with evident annoyance, “I prefer not to resort to violence against a woman, so you would be wise to come forward and apologize.”

‘Oh, wow!’

‘This scoundrel is truly arrogant. He expects me to apologize, does he?’

Folding her arms resolutely, Yan Jinyi emitted a whistle, reminiscent of a street-smart character, and retorted with defiance, “And what if I refuse to apologize?”

'This woman is indeed quite haughty.'

Huo Zihang stared intently at Yan Jinyi’s attractive face, a frown creasing his brow.

He harbored a strong aversion towards women who displayed arrogance and a self-righteous attitude.

“Very well, you have the option to decline an apology. However, rest assured, I possess methods to ensure you comply.”
