1068 Yueyue Goes Missing Part One (1/2)

A slim girl stood in the middle of the study with her head bent. A pair of eyes were glaring at her intently, and she had clenched her fists tightly.

”Didn't you say you were best friends with her? You couldn't even persuade her to attend your sister's birthday celebration?”

The whole Lei Family, especially Lei Yong, was furious with Bai Jing who had failed to bring Su Yue along with her.

His icy breath drew dangerously close to Bai Jing.

Bai Jing retreated in fear and her body was trembling. She spoke, sounding quivering. ”Something cropped up at home. Her brother came back.”

Lei Yong inched and pointed threateningly at Bai Jing. He clenched his teeth and said, ”Bai Jing, remember what I said before? This business deal means a lot to Grand Prosperity Molds, right?”

Bai Jing mustered her courage and questioned Lei Yong instead. ”Are you sure that fawning on Su Yue will make the deal go through?”

Why must she pander to Su Yue?

Su Yue had already seemed far more superior in everyone's eyes.

”You're so close to her. Don't tell me you're unaware of her status in the Yan family?!” yelled Lei Yong. ”Do you know how much Yan Rusheng and his wife dote on her?!”

Bai Jing jumped when he raised his voice and her eyes glimmered with tears.

Zhang Lihong, who couldn't bear to sit any longer, stood up. She walked to Bai Jing and clenched her arms. ”Lei Yong, that's enough. Xiaojing can try her best to help, but if she can't, you can't force her to.”

”Mother, are you defending her?” Lei Yong turned and glared at Zhang Lihong. ”Since she entered the Lei family, she is part of us. Shouldn't she do something to contribute?”

Zhang Lihong sounded anxious as she spoke again. ”Xiaojing can try her best to help. But she is still a child. How can you blame her if the business deal didn't go through? Will Grand Prosperity Molds not be able to operate with Xiaojing?”

”She is the child you bore with someone else. We are not related at all. We are kind enough—”

'Slap!'

Zhang Lihong forcefully slapped Lei Yong before he could even finish his sentence. She pointed at Lei Yong as she heaved a heavy breath. ”Lei Yong, I'm warning you. Xiaojing is my daughter and she has nothing to do with the Lei family. But I do. Without me, Grand Prosperity Molds would never expand so quickly throughout these years.”

”Zhang Lihong, how dare you hit me.” Lei Yong touched his cheek and his eyes were red with rage.

The next second, he raised his hand and returned Zhang Lihong's slap.

Zhang Lihong was incensed. She gripped Lei Yong's clothes and began to hit him. ”Lei Yong, you hit me!”

But how would she be able to win him in strength? Lei Yong shoved her aside and Zhang Lihong collapsed to the floor.

Zhang Lihong began to scream. ”Lei Minghe! Your son hit me! Aren't you doing anything?”

She glanced at the old man sitting on the chair as she yelled.

”That's enough! We have so many guests here with us today. Is your behavior appropriate?”

The head of the Lei family, Lei Minghe finally broke his silence. He glared at Zhang Lihong and hatred flickered in his eyes. ”It's Tiantian's birthday today. Stop your nonsense.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.

He rose, grabbed his walking stick and walked towards the door.

He wasn't that old but one of his legs wasn't well, and so he had to use a walking stick as support.

Lei Minghe swept past Bai Jing. She barked an instruction, ”Get changed and wash your face before coming down.”

He didn't stop and strode out of the room.

Bai Jing bowed her head.

Zhang Lihong stood up and held Bai Jing's hand. ”Xiaojing, don't be afraid. I will not let anyone bully you.”

After Lei Minghe and Lei Yong went out, Bai Jing finally raised her head. Tears had glazed her face as she stared at Zhang Lihong with hatred.

There was a mixture of emotions on her face.

Lei Yong had used all his strength to slap Zhang Lihong and her face was swollen as a result.
