910 Of Course You Can Borrow
Bai Youyou glared fiercely at Shen Hanxing, her eyes filled with malice. “Shen Hanxing, do you really think your actions are flawless? You’re just taking advantage of marrying Ji Yan, using your position to bully others! You physically assaulted a pregnant woman in public just to compete for Lu Shaoyang. You hold a grudge against President Lu and Mrs. Lu, who didn’t allow Lu Shaoyang to marry you, and you went to great lengths to bankrupt the Lu Corporation. Do you dare deny it?”
Bai Youyou raised her head high and looked at Shen Hanxing with disdain. She said scornfully, “Furthermore, I heard that your so-called Starry Foundation is nothing but a sham charity. You use the guise of charity to line your own pockets! As expected of a gangster from the slums, you only know violence and fighting!” Her words grew more impassioned, and the contempt in her eyes almost materialized. “Even in high society, all you know is bullying, either through physical force or by relying on Ji Yan’s status. Shen Hanxing, I would be too ashamed to live in this world if I were you.”
As Bai Youyou spoke with increasing fervor, spittle flew from her mouth, and the excitement in her eyes was about to burst forth. It was as if she could crush Shen Hanxing under her feet at any moment. With her head held high, she resembled a victorious rooster.
At that moment, a light laughter rang out.
Bai Youyou’s face instantly changed, and she exclaimed sharply, “Who? Who’s laughing?” Her sensitivity had reached an unprecedented level these days, where a mere glance from someone could drive her insane, let alone laughter like this!
Bai Youyou, filled with anger, looked in the direction of the laughter, only to see Ji Yan lowering his head. His usually indifferent eyes and brows now carried a tenderness that could drown people, and a faint smile even graced his usually icy lips. Bai Youyou was stunned, finding it hard to believe, and murmured, “Brother… Ji Yan…”
During this time, Bai Youyou had become increasingly sensitive, paying close attention to the surrounding movements and people’s reactions. She was certain that the laughter just now came from Ji Yan, but why would Brother Ji Yan laugh? After hearing her words, why would he laugh?
Immediately after, Bai Youyou saw Ji Yan raise his hand and gently rub the top of Shen Hanxing’s head. His voice was so gentle that it resembled the flowing warm water. He whispered to Shen Hanxing, “So, darling, you’ve been using my identity to intimidate others outside?” Although it should have been a questioning tone, there was not a hint of blame in his voice. This made Bai Youyou doubt her own ears! And what was even more unbelievable followed.
Shen Hanxing showed no panic on her face. She looked up and met Ji Yan’s dark gaze, smiling and saying, “Yes, why not? Mr. Ji’s reputation, can’t I borrow it?”
“Of course you can borrow.” Ji Yan’s smile deepened. Without hesitation, he said, “I work so hard just to ensure that your life is pleasant and comfortable. I just feel that you haven’t used my name to intimidate others enough, and it makes me a bit unhappy.”
Even a fool could hear the indulgence and partiality in Ji Yan’s words.
Bai Youyou’s already unhealthy face turned even paler as tears blurred her vision. “No, this is impossible…” When she was little, Ji Yan was mature beyond his years and always fair. When she bullied unfamiliar girls to snatch toys, Ji Yan would scold her sternly, showing no favoritism just because they grew up together. But now, for this shameless woman Shen Hanxing, he uttered such unfair words!
Bai Youyou did not believe it! She refused to believe it!
Shen Hanxing felt an overwhelming sweetness in her heart. She wished she could throw herself into Ji Yan’s arms and give him a kiss! How could her husband be so good? However, the gazes around them were bothering her, so she could only restrain herself and gently pinch Ji Yan’s fingertips. She smiled sweetly and said, “Mr. Ji, aren’t you afraid of spoiling me if you keep doing this?”
“I couldn’t ask for anything more,” Ji Yan responded.
Shen Hanxing’s smile grew wider, then she turned her head to look at Bai Youyou. “Miss Bai, I thought you were just a bit confused, but I never expected you to be so foolish. No, you’re not just foolish, you’re also malicious.”
“You!” Bai Youyou was so angry that she couldn’t speak, her trembling finger pointed at Shen Hanxing. For a while, she finally shouted, “On what grounds do you say that about me?”
“Did I say something wrong?” Shen Hanxing’s face turned cold, and she questioned step by step, “Even if you rarely leave your house, don’t you look at your phone? Don’t you read the news? If you open your foolish eyes and objectively look at the world, you’ll realize how foolish your words just now were.”
