Chapter 187: Chapter 186: Misunderstood Again
"You..."
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s nauseatingly offensive words, a flash of fury instantly crossed Huang Feng’s eyes. There’s a saying that one should not hit a person in the face or expose their shortcomings, yet Lu Tianxing did exactly both.
Just as Lu Tianxing said, Huang Feng wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth, nor was he a key business personnel. The only reason he could sit in the position of deputy manager of the sales department at Zhang Group was entirely because of Wang Lian. Using her status, he climbed his way to this position step by step.
In Huang Feng’s view, he wasn’t being kept by Wang Lian, but rather using her status to achieve his own goals. As for the number of men Wang Lian had, what did that have to do with him? As long as he served Wang Lian well and got what he wanted, everything else could be ignored.
But that’s just what he thought. When someone outright spoke about it, anyone would probably feel uncomfortable.
Hearing this, Huang Feng’s complexion completely cooled, and he said in a dark tone, "Friend, there’s a saying that goes, ’Always leave room for reconciliation, so you can meet on good terms in the future.’ Don’t be too ruthless. Apologize to Ms. Wang Lian now, and I can let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not being polite to you."
"Apologize? Why should we apologize to you? Wang Lian, you really don’t see your own long face. You’re the one who came looking for trouble, not me. If you know what’s good for you, scram now; otherwise, don’t blame me for not being polite, and I’ll make you recall your school days," Xue Man couldn’t control her outburst before Lu Tianxing could even speak, and she stood up abruptly.
"You... you, Xue Man, you... consider yourself tough. I, Wang Lian, will remember this. I won’t let you off, we’re leaving."
Wang Lian was startled by Xue Man’s actions and involuntarily took a step backwards. Upon seeing Xue Man’s disdainful smile, her complexion turned from green to white, stamped her foot angrily, glared fiercely at both of them, and quickly left the hall with her boyfriend, not even bothering with the plane anymore.
Watching Wang Lian scurry away like a rat from a cat, Lu Tianxing was bemused. It seemed that the child had been scared by Xue Man at school – the psychological shadow must have been immense for her to react like this.
Lu Tianxing suddenly felt the urge to observe a moment of silence for the students who were in the same cohort as Xue Man. They must have been beaten up quite a bit. Surviving to graduate was truly no easy feat.
"Minister Xue, your deterrence is really impressive, even scaring off that woman. I admire you," Lu Tianxing said with a face full of respect.
"Hmph, that kind of woman deserves a beating. Back in school, she used to spread rumors about me just because she didn’t like me. When I caught her, I gave her a good lesson, and she behaved ever since. And now she comes to provoke me? I don’t mind giving her a taste of her school days," Xue Man said with a cold huff.
Lu Tianxing broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead upon hearing Xue Man’s words.
After Wang Lian caused such a scene, the relationship between Lu Tianxing and Xue Man finally eased a bit. The cold stares were gone, and they began to joke and talk. When the boarding time came, the two directly boarded the plane.
No doubt about it, Bai’s Group had deep pockets – the plane tickets they’d booked were not for business class but for first class.
Following another half-hour wait, the plane finally took off, soaring into the sky.
For whatever reason, be it the online booking or something else, the seats for Lu Tianxing and Xue Man weren’t separated; they were next to each other. This was no single-seat first-class, but rather a pair of side-by-side seats.
Xue Man immediately chose a seat by the window, pulled out an eye mask from her backpack, and seemed to intend on resting her eyes for a while.
Lu Tianxing, like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, looked around with great interest, seemingly oblivious to the disdainful glances around him.
After some observation, Lu Tianxing realized that first class and business class were two entirely different levels of enjoyment. Although both offered the service of air hostesses, the attractiveness of the hostesses was completely different. In business class, it was rare to see a beautiful air hostess, but in first class, there were loads of beautiful air hostesses, almost too many to take in at once.
But then again, he understood the hostesses’ intentions. Those who could afford to sit in first class were invariably wealthy and powerful. If they managed to marry a rich young man one day, they might not have to worry for the rest of their lives and could enjoy a life of luxury. Even if they ended up divorcing later, the settlement would be enough to live lavishly for a lifetime.
Naturally, first class became the gathering place for beautiful air hostesses.
As for this, Lu Tianxing lost interest completely. He indeed liked beautiful women, but that didn’t mean he liked every attractive woman. Most of these hostesses were fishing for a wealthy husband. In other words, as long as you had money, they wouldn’t even mind getting involved with you in some not-suitable-for-children’s activities on the plane.
Lu Tianxing never denied his fondness for beautiful women, but he wasn’t about to share a house with others. Who knows if someone had died in that room before?
"Lu Tianxing, what’s wrong with you? This doesn’t seem like you," Xue Man said, looking at Lu Tianxing as she suddenly spoke.
"Minister Xue, what do you mean by that?"
Lu Tianxing was perplexed and looked at Xue Man, not understanding.
"You’re a lecher, but just now, several beautiful air hostesses walked by you and you didn’t even glance at them, not taking a single look. That’s not like you at all."
Xue Man’s eyes twinkled as she looked at Lu Tianxing, as if she had uncovered a huge secret, and then slapped her hand with a decisive expression, "Lu Tianxing, tell me the truth, do you like men, and your previous flirting with women, was that just an act, so that no one would suspect you? Am I right?"
"Ah!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Tianxing felt as if thunder had struck him, his mind buzzing with noise.
Just yesterday, Qiaoqiao said he liked men; now Xue Man claimed the same. Lu Tianxing was in pain—was it so difficult to try to be a good person?
Before Lu Tianxing could speak up, Xue Man continued, "Lu Tianxing, don’t worry, I, Xue Man, am not a gossip. There’s nothing wrong with you liking men. Nowadays, aren’t there many places where men can marry each other? Once you have money, you can emigrate. There’s nothing to fuss about...."
Xue Man rambled on, while Lu Tianxing’s expression turned very ugly. Since when did he like men? He wasn’t aware of it. His disregard for the air hostesses was merely because he didn’t want to share a room with someone else—how could these women jump to such conclusions?
"Stop!"
Finally, Lu Tianxing couldn’t hold back anymore, interrupting Xue Man, saying through gritted teeth, "You’re saying I like men?"
