Chapter 191 - Control Your Partner

Shen Sisi gently helped the waiter up and comforted him in a soft voice, “It’s okay. Don’t be afraid. We’re all human. We all make mistakes sometimes. It’s just a small matter. There is no need to panic.”

“Miss Shen…” The waiter looked at Shen Sisi with tears in his eyes. She shook her head subconsciously. “No, it’s all my fault…”

“Alright, stop crying,” Shen Sisi interrupted her and lifted her eyebrows. She smiled and said, “You have just stained a dress. I don’t think Mrs. Ji will mind, right?” She glanced at Shen Hanxing with deep jealousy and unwillingness.

Shen Hanxing lifted her head, but she did not look at Shen Sisi. Instead, she looked at the man beside her. “Mr. Zhuang Li, please control your partner. It’s not a good habit to meddle in other people’s business.”

“You!” Shen Sisi felt deeply humiliated, and her face flushed red. She could not help but scold, “Shen Hanxing, I’m talking to you. Are you deaf?”

“You? Who do you think you are to have the right to talk to Mrs. Ji?” Zhuang mocked, “who do you think you are? If we have to reply to someone like you every day, wouldn’t we be tired?” After saying that, she could not help but mutter, “You are just a toy. Do you really think you’re a princess?”

Shen Sisi hadn’t realized her identity and was only humiliating herself. The Shen family was nothing compared to the three tycoons of S City. Zhuang Yu was from the Zhuang family. She was competing with Zhuang Li to inherit the company. Meanwhile, Shen Hanxing was Ji Yan’s wife and the matriarch of the Ji family. Shen Sisi was nothing before the two of them.

Shen Sisi’s face turned pale. She felt as if everyone’s gaze on her had turned into sharp thorns and pierced into her body, making her feel ashamed. She could not help but look at the man beside her with a pleading gaze and muttered, “Zhuang Li…”

Unfortunately, Zhuang Li did not respond to her. Shen Sisi realized that Zhuang Li’s gaze had fixed on Shen Hanxing. His focus was on her, and there was an expression that she could not see clearly.

Shen Sisi’s heart skipped a beat. She could not remain her proud self. She could not help but grab Zhuang Li’s arm and raise her voice as she called out his name again, “Zhuang Li!”

“Huh?” Zhuang Li, who had been disturbed, frowned. He looked frustrated. His gaze finally landed on Shen Sisi.

Seeing this scene, Ji Yan frowned slightly and took half a step forward to protect Shen Hanxing behind him.

Shen Sisi looked at Zhuang Li with tears in her eyes. “I’m your girlfriend. Why aren’t you saying anything when Shen Hanxing and the rest mock me?” She felt embarrassed, especially when Ji Yan stood beside Shen Hanxing at the first moment and protectively protected Shen Hanxing.

Zhuang Li seemed to have just realized they were mocking Shen Sisi. His deep gaze landed on Zhuang Yu, and he frowned. “Zhuang Yu, watch your attitude.”

“What attitude?” Zhuang Yu pursed her lips in disdain and looked at the pretentious Shen Sisi. She scoffed. “What attitude can I have towards the thing you brought over? She is just eye candy. Does she think you are dating her for real? Do you think you can marry Zhuang Li? Ridiculous!” She looked down on Shen Sisi, who relied on marrying a man to raise her social status the most. Shen Sisi was like a woman who could not live without a man.

“Zhuang Yu!” Zhuang Hengyu took a step forward and tugged at Zhuang Yu. He lectured her seriously, “Miss Shen Sisi doesn’t know her place. But as a member of the Zhuang family, you can’t be rude. How did I teach you? You can’t forget your manners just because others don’t know their manners, do you understand?”

Shen Hanxing could not help but cover her mouth and laugh. As expected of the mean Doctor Zhuang, the way he beat around the bush and scolded others was funny.

Shen Sisi’s face turned paler, and Zhuang Li seemed displeased. “No matter what, Shen Sisi is someone I brought here. With this attitude of yours, do you take me seriously?”

Zhuang Yu curled her lips and did not say anything.

Shen Sisi’s face instantly turned pale, and she clenched her fists tightly. What did Zhuang Li mean by this? He did not care whether someone had bullied Shen Sisi. He only cared about his reputation! Why? Why would she have to suffer such humiliation? Shen Sisi wished she could smash these porcelain pieces on the spot and smash them onto their faces. She would scream at them to vent her anger, but she couldn’t.

After a short interlude, everyone acted as if nothing had happened. Everyone found an acquaintance to talk to.

Shen Sisi stared blankly at Ji Yan, chatting cheerfully with others. Even when they talked, he didn’t forget to raise his hand to separate the passers-by from Shen Hanxing.
