The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 897 - 312: Su Yingxue Plays the Victim First

Song Qiao heard what he said and was instantly stunned, looking at the man in front of her, her flushed lips moved slightly, but she was dumbfounded and couldn’t utter a single word.

It seemed as if Chu Munan had understood what Song Qiao was thinking, his expression remained unchanged. Just as the restaurant served food quite quickly, he caught sight of the waiter bringing their breakfast with the corner of his eye, and he fell silent, allowing Song Qiao time to think things through.

After the waiter placed all their ordered breakfast items on the table, he left immediately. Since they chose a corner spot, there were no other guests nearby, but faintly they could hear the bustling chatter of others.

Chu Munan wasn’t in a hurry to speak with Song Qiao. Among the breakfast dishes, he ordered a bowl of mung bean porridge. This place made excellent mung bean porridge, and although he usually doesn’t like it much, after trying it once last time, he thought of bringing Song Qiao to try it too. He didn’t expect to bring her here so soon.

Moreover, mung bean porridge is beneficial for pregnant women, so Chu Munan directly served a bowl to her and placed it in front of her, before his deep voice rang out once again, "Also, if you want to leave, I can help you. As long as you leave An City, I guarantee Lu Jingchen won’t be able to find you unless you doubt my abilities."

Upon hearing this, Song Qiao shook her head instinctively and opened her mouth, "I don’t doubt your abilities; on the contrary, you’re the only man I’ve seen who can rival Lu Jingchen."

Chu Munan subtly raised his eyebrows, handed her the sterilized spoon he’d just soaked in hot water, and after she took it, he curled his lips with a hint of humor and said, "Could it be that when you saved me back then, you already knew I was the only one capable of rivalling Lu Jingchen?"

Song Qiao’s hand holding the spoon paused, then she stared at him and said leisurely, "Do I look like a woman with such sharp eyes? When I met you, you were injured, and if it weren’t for those formidable men by your side, in that state you’d be truly weak..."

Chu Munan’s face turned quite unpleasant in an instant due to her words, even showing signs of twitching at the corners of his mouth, struggling to suppress the urge to overturn the table, he quickly adopted a fierce expression, waiting for Song Qiao to speak, "Who are you calling weak?"

Dare she say Chu Munan was weak? Song Qiao was simply... provoking someone to... want to strangle her and see if she could be silenced.

Seemingly sensing Chu Munan’s suppressed anger, Song Qiao withdrew her neck slightly and cautiously looked at the man in front of her, realizing that his face showed displeasure due to her words, couldn’t help but recall his identity and curse inwardly.

Her expression quickly transformed into a smile of appeasement, "You’re not weak, I am, I’m weak..."

Song Qiao had heard tales of Chu Munan from Lu Jingchen and knew that Chu Munan had many enterprises and some... organizations or gangs in Beijing, even in many major domestic cities.

Back then, she didn’t know if Lu Jingchen exaggerated just to scare her away from Chu Munan, but overall he painted the man in front of her as terrifying.

Moreover, she wasn’t sure if she was overthinking, but it seemed like Zuo Yuqing was quite afraid of Chu Munan.

Upon hearing Song Qiao’s words, Chu Munan snorted arrogantly and directly pointed with his chin at the bowl of red bean porridge in front of her, "Eat up, this red bean porridge tastes good. Even if you don’t want to eat, you should consider the child inside you."

Song Qiao, "..." Just like that? Wasn’t he supposed to get angry?

Maybe Lu Jingchen just exaggerated to scare her when he spoke about this man?

Thinking about it, Song Qiao was teary-eyed!

Could she have been too gullible?

...

Lu Jingchen arrived at the film set when Su Yingxue was complaining to the director. Those who knew about Su Yingxue and Zuo Yuqing’s fight were all keen to watch the drama unfold, clustering together to see how Su Yingxue planned to confront Zuo Yuqing.

The director was quite troubled, just having finished shooting a scene, having not slept all night rushing from location to location, intending to shoot another scene when he was informed of Si Yingxue and Zuo Yuqing’s fight. Immediately, he dropped what he was doing and hurried over.

Su Yingxue, currently at the peak of her career, had directly assaulted the popular actress who had been thriving in Hollywood for years, and could that be tolerated?

As soon as the director appeared, Su Yingxue immediately acted as the accuser, telling the director it was Zuo Yuqing’s fault. The director stood there listening to Su Yingxue, feeling unwell and in a bad mood, but he didn’t interrupt her.

Zuo Yuqing’s assistant had somehow found a freshly boiled egg and brought it over, nearly bursting with rage hearing Su Yingxue’s words, but was promptly held back by Zuo Yuqing’s agent who just arrived.

Zuo Yuqing’s agent looked at Su Yingxue, who was still rambling on, then shifted his gaze to the woman beside him, her face swollen on one side, full of heartache and anger, spoke out, "Was Su Yingxue doing it on purpose? Does it hurt? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

Zuo Yuqing held the egg against her swollen face, wincing in pain, yet still wearing a smile, said to her agent, "Let’s go to the hospital later, I want to see how she plans to step on me."

Though she didn’t know how many awards she had won in Hollywood and how many years she had been an actress, Zuo Yuqing remained low-key, but she didn’t expect her low profile to be taken as a sign she was easy to bully.

A tiger doesn’t exhibit its power, really thinking Zuo Yuqing was easy to bully?

Something flickered in her mind, Zuo Yuqing turned to her assistant, whose eyes were red from seeing her hurt, a strange warmth filled her heart, and she instructed, "Get me three chairs, standing is tiring, sitting and watching the show is best."

The assistant was momentarily puzzled by Zuo Yuqing’s instructions, but since she already told her to do it, she naturally complied and immediately went to gather chairs.
