“You!!” Lin Xiaomi's face turned blushed after he hit her, but she was too embarra.s.sed to block it with her hand.

“I? Will you beat me again if I don't let you go?” asked he expressionlessly, deliberately pretending to be angry.

She abided by the rule that a wise man knew when to retreat, so she said with a forced smile, “Okay, I apologize to you, okay? I'm sorry for wronging you just now. Now, can you let me go?”

Leng Yihuang said with a sneer, “You have no sincerity.”

“You!!” She was almost choked to death by the anger in her chest.

Right at the moment, her cellphone rang. She felt overjoyed and impatiently shook his hand. “Don't you hear that? Remove your hand!”

Having glanced at her cellphone, he removed his hand.

However, when she turned around, she stomped on the back of his foot with force. With a painful scream, he felt his entire sole was numbed.

She had expected him to make a dodge, so she didn't control her power. Thus, she was so frightened that she bolted out to answer the cellphone.

She frowned upon seeing that her mother called her.

Not until she took several deep breaths did she answer the phone.

“Mom,” said she.

“What takes you so long to answer my phone?” Jiang Hui was a little unhappy.

“I was using the bathroom just now! What's up?”

Jiang Hui said indifferently as usual, “You should remember, Xin'er's birthday falls on the next Wednesday. We'll throw her a birthday party by then, and all the family members will be there, so will you. Don't forget to buy her a present.”
