"Help me out? I don't need your assistance at all. Have you forgotten your own status? Are you trying to cause a scene at Xiyun's engagement banquet?" the bride's mother said.
"Good intentions turned into a burden. I was going to teach this Miss Zhao a lesson, but now it's unnecessary," Jiang Chen replied, his interest waning.
The middle-aged woman sighed slightly and fell silent.
However, Zhao Xinrong frowned, finding Jiang Chen's words quite arrogant. "I see you don’t want to teach me a lesson; you’re just afraid. Don’t you like Lin Rumei? I can call her over right now. If I say you disrespected her, you’ll definitely be in trouble. Of course, I’m a soft-hearted person; if you kneel and beg me now, I might let you off the hook," Zhao Xinrong sneered.
"You don’t need to call her over; she will come looking for me on her own," Jiang Chen replied with a faint smile.
Zhao Xinrong's smile froze on her face, bewildered. She never imagined that Jiang Chen knew Lin Rumei. After all, one was a socialite from Hong Kong Island, while the other was an ordinary person from Domestic, with no intersection between them. Moreover, Lin Rumei had a proud personality; many wealthy young men from Hong Kong Island couldn’t catch her eye, let alone someone as lowly as Jiang Chen.
As soon as Lin Rumei entered, her gaze scanned the room and quickly landed on Jiang Chen.
"Mr. Jiang is over there; let’s go greet him," Lin Rumei said, leading her father toward Jiang Chen and Ding Yan.
Seeing Lin Rumei actually approaching them, Zhao Xinrong was taken aback, and even the bride's mother and others were surprised.
When Lin Rumei and her party reached Jiang Chen, their demeanor was respectful, as if they were ministers addressing an emperor, leaving Zhao Xinrong dumbfounded.
"Miss Lin, do you know him? Who is he?" Zhao Xinrong asked incredulously.
Lin Rumei glanced at Zhao Xinrong, then at Jiang Chen. She didn’t answer Zhao Xinrong's question but cautiously asked Jiang Chen, "Are you friends with Miss Zhao?"
"This Miss Zhao disrespected me earlier; I was going to have you teach her a lesson, but now it’s not worth it," Jiang Chen said.
Upon hearing this, Lin Rumei’s expression turned cold. She looked at Zhao Xinrong and said flatly, "Miss Zhao, you're really lucky today. Mr. Jiang isn’t holding it against you. Hurry up and leave; don’t block his view any longer."
"Lin Rumei, what do you mean? Even if you know this guy, so what? Are you really going to help him teach me a lesson? Our the Zhao Family is no less significant than your Lin family. It wouldn’t benefit you to go against me for someone from the ordinary world," Zhao Xinrong, initially shocked, became enraged upon hearing how much support Lin Rumei was giving to Jiang Chen.
"Don't be unappreciative," Lin Rumei frowned. Although she had no grievances with Zhao Xinrong, why would she choose to offend someone like Jiang Chen? That was courting death. Even if Jiang Chen chose not to retaliate this time, it didn’t mean he wouldn’t in the future.
"Zhao Xinrong, shut your mouth," Lin Rumei said sternly as she slapped Zhao Xinrong. In truth, she was trying to save her; if things continued this way, it would surely lead to disaster for her. After all, Jiang Chen was not someone who showed mercy—he could kill without blinking an eye.
