Chapter 114 Where is your apology?
"How, how is it possible?"
Lin Wanrou took the phone handed to her by the cleaning lady and spoke stiffly.
Without even turning around, she knew Zhou Chengfeng's expression must be terrifyingly gloomy right now...
"Excuse me, ma'am, my phone accidentally fell out of my pocket while I was cleaning, and since they're exactly the same, I..."
The cleaner continued to bow 90 degrees and said, "I'm sorry, it was because I didn't check carefully and took the wrong phone, which caused the misunderstanding. I sincerely apologize to you here, and I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive my mistake!"
Hearing the cleaner say this, the people around also turned their eyes to the two mobile phones in Lin Wanrou's hands.
It's exactly the same!
Same color, same model, even the pendant style is the same...
Except, one new and one old!
"This isn't some high-end phone, what's there to steal?"
"Exactly, and she even switched the phone? Doesn't she even consider her own status? She really thinks she's the head of state and her phone is full of state secrets!"
"Tsk! What a joke!"
"The cleaner's phone is brand new, and hers is so worn out. She took the wrong phone, so shouldn't the cleaner be more worried?"
"That's right, you're right..."
……
Listening to the discussions of people around him, Zhou Chengfeng felt the blood rushing to his forehead.
"Is this what you meant by the phone being swapped?!"
He almost squeezed out these words from between his teeth.
After living for more than 20 years, this was the first time he felt so ashamed!
Now he even wanted to kick Lin Wanrou to the ground, wishing he had never met her!
"Husband, you, please listen to my explanation..."
Lin Wanrou threw the new phone on the ground and hurriedly grabbed Zhou Chengfeng's arm. "At that time, there were only Li Siying and I in the bathroom. I had no idea when the cleaner took my phone away..."
"Accomplice..."
Lin Wanrou's voice suddenly became sharp, "Yes! They're accomplices! This cleaner must be in cahoots with Li Siwei! It was them, they worked together, and they stole my phone while I wasn't paying attention!"
"Have you had enough trouble?"
Zhou Chengfeng shook off Lin Wanrou's hand so hard that she staggered and fell to the ground.
After a moment of confusion, Lin Wanrou covered her lower abdomen and frowned in pain.
"Mr. Zhou Er, please be more compassionate to your wife. After all, Mrs. Zhou Er is pregnant with your child!"
Li Siwei sneered, then bent down, picked up the phone that Lin Wanrou had thrown on the ground, and handed it back to the cleaning lady.
Zhou Chengfeng: ...
As soon as she said this, Zhou Chengfeng clearly felt that the discussions around him had become much louder.
They were all from the same circle, and they had already gossiped about everything, including the recent broken engagement between the Zhou and Li families, Mr. Zhou Er's remarriage, and Mrs. Zhou Er's taking the throne while pregnant.
Everyone originally thought that Zhou Chengfeng must be terribly in love with Lin Wanrou, which was why he gave up the marriage with the Li family, disobeyed his parents, and stole the household registration book to marry her.
But today I saw...
Everyone couldn't help but shake their heads...
His fragile self-esteem had been shattered, and his dignity as a man had been rubbed to the ground.
Zhou Chengfeng clenched his palms into fists.
"Stand up quickly! How long do you want to keep embarrassing yourself?"
His voice was cold without a trace of warmth. Without waiting for Lin Wanrou to move, he reached out and grabbed her upper arm and lifted her up.
After that, he didn't care about the looks or attitudes of the people around him, and just pulled her away.
"stop!"
He had just dragged Lin Wanrou one step when a cold male voice came from behind him.
Zhou Chengfeng stopped and turned around immediately out of almost instinctive fear.
"Uncle..."
"Just throw dirty water on someone and walk away. Is that what your parents taught you?!"
Zhou Chengfeng: ...
"Also, your people broke someone's phone, and you're not going to compensate?!"
The two questions in a row were like two slaps in the face. Zhou Chengfeng was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Shame! It's so shameful!
"I'm sorry, uncle..."
Zhou Chengfeng's voice was as thin as a mosquito, and he said this with gritted teeth and lowered his head.
"What are you sorry for?"
Chi Yuheng raised his eyebrows coldly, "If you want to apologize, you should say it to the person you slandered."
After he finished speaking, he moved aside, letting Li Siwei, who had been protected behind him, out of the way. He added in a cold voice, "Call your people and apologize to Li Li together!"
Zhou Chengfeng: ...
His fists were clenched so tightly that they made a crackling sound.
Feeling the gazes of the people around him, either watching the show or looking down on him, Zhou Chengfeng gritted his teeth, pulled Lin Wanrou over, and pushed her forward.
"Why don't you apologize quickly!"
"sorry……"
No matter how reluctant she was, Lin Wanrou knew that she was powerless at the moment.
As tears as big as beans rolled down her cheeks, she clenched her back teeth and mumbled.
Zhou Chengfeng shouted angrily: "The voice is too quiet!"
In order to prevent Lin Wanrou from being angered and causing him to suffer even more embarrassment, Zhou Chengfeng glared at her without anyone reminding him and pushed her hard.
"Woooooooo..."
Lin Wanrou burst into tears, "Yes, I'm sorry! Miss Li, I'm sorry!"
After saying this while crying, she shook off Zhou Chengfeng's hand that was clamped on her without a care in the world, pushed through the crowd and ran out.
Zhou Chengfeng shook his hands angrily and was about to follow, but Cheng Bai quickly raised his arm to block his way.
Just when I was about to ask Cheng Bai what he meant, I heard Chi Yuheng's voice coming from behind me again.
"Where's your apology?"
"I?"
Zhou Chengfeng was startled, turned around suddenly, and laughed dryly, "Uncle, what happened just now was all caused by Lin Wanrou, what does it have to do with me..."
The implication is that he has no right to apologize to Li Siwei.
"It has nothing to do with you?"
Chi Yuheng smiled and raised his eyebrows, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "Whether it's the two families breaking off the engagement or Miss Lin's aggressive attitude towards Li Li, it's all because of you."
"And now you tell me this has nothing to do with you?"
Zhou Chengfeng: “…”
Although he really wanted to say that he would not apologize to Li Siying, his knees were not strong enough.
Without even a second's hesitation, Zhou Chengfeng quickly said, "I'm sorry..."
"I can't hear you clearly, please speak louder."
Chi Yuheng reminded coldly.
He realized that the boomerang had finally hit him back.
Zhou Chengfeng closed his eyes and said with a stiff upper lip, "I'm sorry, Miss Li, please forgive Rourou's offense. I will strictly discipline myself in the future and will not let this happen again!"
Li Siwei raised her chin and curled her lips slowly, "I hope the Second Young Master will keep his word."
Nodding dejectedly, Zhou Chengfeng looked at Chi Yuheng again and spoke respectfully.
"Uncle, I'll leave first."
"Pay compensation for the broken phone."
Giving him a look that said, "You can get lost," Chi Yuheng added coldly, "Go back and reflect on your mistakes. I will tell your parents the truth about what happened today."
Zhou Chengfeng:!!!
His eyes were as big as copper bells, and his footing was unstable and he almost fell down.
Although he really wanted to beg for mercy from his uncle regardless of his face, Zhou Chengfeng also knew that given his relationship with his uncle, his uncle would not even blink if he just knelt down and kowtowed to him.
So, without further ado, Zhou Chengfeng put on a mournful face and replied sullenly, "He'll have someone send the money over later," before quickly walking out, facing the mocking gazes of the people around him...
