Chapter 514: So What?

Rong Jun’s words made Old Mrs. Rong even angrier. "Shut your mouth."

’As if she didn’t know exactly what kind of person her own grandson was.’

Rong Jun felt aggrieved at being yelled at.

’I shouldn’t have come along,’ he thought.

’Wouldn’t it have been better to stay home in Xiangjiang and live like a young master?’

’Instead, I had to run off to this poor, backward place to suffer.’

’Not only did I fail to get on Grandmother’s good side, I actually made her even angrier with me.’

’I tried to steal the chicken but ended up losing the rice bait.’

’And that woman, Fu Mingxue—what a complete waste of a pretty face.’

’She’s so barbaric, practically uncivilized.’

’Otherwise, what kind of woman attacks someone over a simple disagreement?’

’I am, at the very least, an important business partner and a key investor.’

’Shouldn’t I be wined and dined wherever I go?’

Old Mrs. Rong didn’t want to waste her breath on him.

She, too, was filled with regret. ’I never should have agreed when he volunteered to go and get Fu Mingxue.’

Just then, the two staff members hurried over.

When they saw the old lady’s furious expression, their hearts sank.

’It’s over,’ they thought. ’She’s furious.’

’Is she still going to donate the equipment?’

"You two have arrived just in time. Please, tell me what happened. And be honest. Don’t mind him."

By not calling him a good-for-nothing grandson, Old Mrs. Rong was already doing her best to save face for Rong Jun in front of outsiders.

"Well... we don’t know the exact details ourselves. All we know is that after Comrade Fu Mingxue got in the car, she stormed out a moment later looking furious. She then said that she would not be seeing you again, and that you and Mr. Rong should stop bothering her."

"When Mr. Rong rushed out of the car after her, Comrade Fu Mingxue shoulder-threw him. That’s basically what happened."

After they finished speaking, the two men were extremely uneasy.

After hearing their account, Old Mrs. Rong was silent for a long moment.

This made Director Li from the Ministry of Commerce incredibly anxious.

Just as Director Li was about to say something...

Old Mrs. Rong spoke up. "If that’s the case, then very well. We won’t disturb her anymore. This was our fault, really. As a token of our apology, we’d like to place an additional order for clothing. Someone will be in touch to arrange the details."

Director Li: ...?

The other staff members were also stunned.

They had all expected the old lady to be furious; they never imagined something so good would come of it.

Rong Jun: ...?

He was a little displeased.

’Why on earth are we giving them another order?’

’If we want clothes, we can get them made anywhere.’

—

Director Zheng hung up the phone, his feelings quite mixed.

’I thought they were going to fly into a rage!’ he thought.

’I was all ready to fire back at them.’

’But it turned out they were perfectly happy.’

’They even said they got a huge order out of it.’

’And they didn’t say a single bad word about Fu Mingxue.’

’Of course, if they had dared to say anything bad about Fu Mingxue, I wouldn’t have held back either.’

Director Zheng knocked on Fu Mingxue’s door.

He then told Fu Mingxue what had happened.

Fu Mingxue just raised an eyebrow, not offering a single comment.

When she went to class that afternoon, Fu Mingxue could feel that her classmates were looking at her in a very different way.

Every one of them was staring, their eyes shining with a burning intensity.

’It must be because of that shoulder throw from earlier,’ she figured.

After all, there had been quite a crowd of onlookers at the time.

...

The Qin family had also received the news.

It was Qin Wenze who delivered it.

"Wow, our Mingxue is that formidable?" Mrs. Qin exclaimed in shock.

"Excellent!" Elder Qin chimed in.

And as for Old Mrs. Qin, she couldn’t have been more delighted by her granddaughter-in-law’s spirited nature.

"That’s exactly right. When it’s time to strike, you strike."

Qin Wenze: ...?

"You know, the Rong family donated a lot of things this time."

Mrs. Qin was dismissive. "So what? Just because they made a large donation, our Mingxue is supposed to let them walk all over her?"
