1286 To Leave or Not? (1/2)
Shi Xiaoya threw her head up in awkwardness.
Although her family background was not comparable to the status of the Han Family, she also had some remarkable seniors and brothers in her family. Yet, she had never seen anyone with an aura as scary as Han Zhuoling's.
The moment his gaze landed briefly on her, she got so nervous that she did not even dare to breathe loudly.
How embarrassing!
”Big Brother, what happened to your face?” Han Zhuoli pointed to his own cheek, at the same position where Han Zhuoling's wound was.
The moment he mentioned that, Han Zhuoling's face turned even darker.
He briefly glanced at Shi Xiaoya. Shi Xiaoya immediately said, ”I'll go out first, you can call me back once you all are done talking.”
Right after she said that and took a step out, Han Zhuoling said, ”Xia Yixin scratched me.”
Shi Xiaoya: ”...”
Couldn't he wait for her to leave before saying that?!
If he did not mind her listening, what did he give her that look for?
It made her feel so awkward now. Was she supposed to leave or not?
”Xia Yixin went to find you?” Han Zhuoli frowned.
”She blocked me at the company's entrance.” Han Zhuoling pursed his lips before saying, ”I pressured the Xia Family too tightly. At first, Xia Zhancheng still agreed to support Xia Yixin, but he seemed to have completely changed his mind now. The Xia Family is having a tough time now, so Xia Yixin came to beg me, but to no avail. Then she resorted to scratching me.”
”No one stopped her? What are they all doing?!” Han Zhuoli said unhappily.
”No one expected it.” Han Zhuoling covered the small fingernail scratch on his cheek. ”I can't possibly attend the film festival with a wound.”
This was the first important public event that Han Zhuoling would be attending after he came back.
They also intended to use this chance to announce that Han Zhuoling had returned and would officially be in charge of the Han Corporation's overseas expansion and development.
Given how long Han Zhuoling had been in Europe, the people in the country might have forgotten who he was already, so doing this was a must.
