Chapter 171 A Bizarre!
Chapter 171 A Bizarre!
Seeing Yuan Yangyang's puffed-up cheeks, like a pufferfish, Yan Zizhuo's eyes darkened.
"Alright, Yangyang, if you keep inserting it, these chestnuts will turn to mush."
"Anyone who didn't know better would think you were going to grind it to ashes!"
Yuan Sixiao took the fork from Yuan Yangyang's hand and joked.
"Okay, don't be angry anymore. Didn't you say that eating sweets makes you feel better? I'll get you two more!"
As Yuan Sixiao spoke, she headed towards the dessert area.
But then they heard two women arguing.
One of them was dressed in a gorgeous gown and was clearly an invited guest.
The other person was dressed in the uniform of a dessert shop, clearly a staff member there.
Hearing the commotion, Yuan Sixiao quickly went to check.
Today is Yuan's home turf, so it's best to resolve this as soon as possible.
Yangyang's family reunion banquet must not go wrong.
The commotion was quite loud, and it alerted Yuan Yangyang as well.
Yuan Yangyang rushed over excitedly to see what was going on, never expecting that the two people were the ones who ruined her family reunion banquet.
"What's wrong with you? I just asked you to go to the back and get two more pieces of this pastry, and what's with your attitude?"
The woman in the fine clothes had a livid face, clearly very angry.
"You want pastries? No problem, but couldn't you have just said so once? You made me come twice. I think you're just making things difficult for me because I'm a waiter!"
Su Mingyue's voice was loud, and her face showed resentment and disdain.
He scrutinized the elegantly dressed woman across from him from head to toe, making the woman feel uneasy.
"What are you looking at? What kind of look is that?"
Su Mingyue raised her chin and said arrogantly, "It's nothing. I've always heard that the richer people are, the less classy they are and how they look down on us working people. Today I've finally seen it for myself."
When Yuan Sixiao arrived, he happened to hear this sentence and frowned.
Yuan Yangyang also thought the girl was a bit silly.
[That one sentence offended all the guests at the banquet; that's quite a powerful move!]
Noticing the stares from those around her, the woman in the fine clothes felt aggrieved.
He quickly replied, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who looks down on you? Don't talk nonsense!"
"I neither hit you nor cursed at you, so why are you accusing me of this? How did I look down on you? Explain yourself clearly."
"You don't look down on me, yet you order me around like this?" Su Mingyue complained.
"You said you were out of butterfly pastries and asked me to go to the kitchen to get them for you. I just got them for you, and now you're asking me to get you wife cakes."
"I may be a waiter, but I'm not a waiter for this restaurant. What gives you the right to order me around like this!"
The woman in the gorgeous dress was so angry she almost fell over, and Yuan Yangyang trembled slightly when she saw her.
Worried that something might happen, he forgot about watching the show and rushed forward to help the woman up and pat her back to catch her breath.
He comforted her, saying, "Don't be angry. Let's talk things out. You've come to my family reunion banquet, so I certainly won't let you suffer any grievances."
"If anyone really bullies you, I will stand up for you."
Yuan Yangyang's words of comfort earned her a grateful look from the woman, but they angered Su Mingyue.
She had always thought that the woman was deliberately causing her trouble, but it turned out that the young lady of the Yuan family was openly and secretly supporting that woman.
They're all birds of a feather.
She didn't care whether the other person was the host of the banquet or not; anyone who tried to bully her was unacceptable.
"How can you talk like that? You don't even know what happened, yet you're siding with her. Sure enough, rich people are all the same, birds of a feather."
"What did you say?" Yuan Yangyang asked incredulously, almost thinking she had misheard.
She thought she hadn't done anything wrong; she had just seen the woman in fancy clothes looking quite angry and was worried something might happen, so she offered a few words of comfort.
How come she was also scolded by a staff member?
Su Mingyue said disdainfully, "What are you pretending for? You're all in cahoots, just bullying me. What are you pretending to be so high and mighty for! You're all just putting on an act."
"Ha!" Yuan Yangyang was so angry that she laughed.
“I don’t know anything about your affair with this lady, but I heard you insulting me very clearly.”
"Slap!" Yuan Yangyang slapped the other person across the face. Meeting the incredulous look in the other person's eyes, Yuan Yangyang remained calm.
She said, "You insulted me first, so it's not too much for me to slap you!"
"You! You dare hit me!" Su Mingyue's face was full of resentment as she raised her arm and slapped Yuan Yangyang hard across the face.
That force was much greater than the force Yuan Yangyang used against her.
Yuan Yangyang was prepared to catch the blow with her hands.
But the slap never came down.
Looking up, Yuan Yangyang saw Yan Zizhuo standing in front of her, firmly holding Su Mingyue's outstretched arm in place, not moving an inch.
Standing next to him was Yuan Sixiao, whose face was also ashen.
It was obvious that he had tried to shield her from the slap.
"Brother Zizhuo? What are you doing here?" Su Mingyue looked at Yan Zizhuo with delight.
Seeing that Yan Zizhuo didn't speak or let go, Su Mingyue struggled to free her arm and said, "Brother Zizhuo, let go quickly, it hurts."
After letting go of Yan Zizhuo, she couldn't wait to complain, "Brother Zizhuo, they all bullied me, you have to stand up for me!"
This was the first time Yuan Yangyang had ever seen someone so arrogant at someone else's banquet; it was truly an eye-opener.
[Just when one scheming woman left, another one appeared. Did I stir up a whole nest of scheming women?]
[What kind of bizarre and outlandish people are surrounding the main villain?!]
As the biggest villain in the book, shouldn't he be incredibly capable? If he can't even see through such childish tricks, he truly doesn't live up to his title as a major villain!
Yan Zizhuo glanced at Yuan Yangyang without showing any emotion, then took a step back to keep his distance from Su Mingyue.
Only then did he speak, "Su Mingyue, speak properly. Also, I have eyes and I can see for myself."
Upon seeing Yan Zizhuo's attitude, Su Mingyue became anxious.
“Brother Zizhuo, everything I said is true, I’m not lying to you.”
As she spoke, she pointed directly at Yuan Yangyang, "It was her. As the host, she took sides and even hit me. Wasn't she just bullying me because I'm a waitress?"
"What's wrong with being a waiter? I earn money with my own skills, which is much better than you rich kids who just sponge off your parents."
Yuan Yangyang was already cursing in her heart.
But Su Mingyue wasn't done yet; she then turned to the woman in fine clothes to complain.
"And then there's her. She never explains herself, yet she keeps ordering me around like I'm her maid."
The woman in the fine clothes had calmed down a bit and was more level-headed, but she was still furious.
He immediately cursed, "You're talking nonsense! I only let you get pastries twice, how am I treating you like a maid?"
"Isn't this your job? The plates on the table are all empty, and you don't refill them promptly. You only serve them when customers ask for them. Is this how you do business?!"
"How dare you say I'm bullying you? It's clearly your fault for not doing a good enough job!"
