Stand Up for Her
When the crowd saw who it was, they couldn't help but exclaim.
"Oh my god, isn't this Family He's daughter? She's actually here! "
"After all, this is Family He's business. It's not impossible for the Young Master to come and inspect."
"She's already Family He's second-in-command at such a young age. I heard that she has already obtained degrees from five prestigious universities. This year, she officially entered the company for an internship. She's beautiful and comes from a noble family. The number of people lining up to marry her can already circle around A City."
"I've only seen her in magazines before. Now that I look at her up close, she's really beautiful."
"After all, she's Family He's daughter. How can there be an ugly person in Family He?"
…
Needless to say, this was Family He's adopted daughter, He Nianchu.
Back then, Princess Lilith's daughter, He Sichu, fell into the deep sea because of a terrorist attack. In the end, not even her bones were left. The head of Family He, He Shaochen, didn't want to see his beloved wife depressed all day, so he adopted another girl from outside. That girl was He Nianchu.
Family He didn't treat He Nianchu differently because she was an adopted daughter. Other than not having the right to inherit the royal family and Family He's inheritance, the rest were treated the same as He Sijie. No one gossiped because He Nianchu was an adopted daughter, because those gossipers would be dealt with by Family He when they arrived.
Who knew how many people were envious of He Nianchu? To be adopted by Family He was a blessing that she had accumulated over several lifetimes.
He Nianchu's gaze swept across the crowd and finally landed on Xia An 'an and Jiang Shixuan. She said, "What's the matter that can't be resolved in private? This is a public place, not a place for you to curse and swear like a shrew. "
Jiang Shixuan also recognized He Nianchu's background. She quickly stepped forward and said, "Hello, Miss He. It's like this. A thief sneaked into your hotel and I happened to bump into her. I was going to ask the security to chase her out, but she insisted that she was a guest here, so there was an argument."
He Nian had noticed Xia An'an from the beginning. She saw that Xia An'an was dressed plainly and had ugly scars on his face. No matter how she thought about it, she didn't think that such a person would be a guest of the hotel.
She walked towards Xia An 'an and looked down at her, saying, "I don't care what your goal is, but please stop your stupid actions. You have to pay a heavy price for behaving atrociously in the Half Day Inn!"
"I'm a guest here!"
Xia An'an said stubbornly.
Why do these people always judge a person from the outside?
Even the Young Miss of Family He was the same!
"Are you still quibbling?"
He Nianchu's eyes turned cold. "You have to be glad that I'm the one who came here and not my brother. Otherwise, you wouldn't be as simple as being locked up in prison."
"I'll say it again. I'm a guest here!"
Xia An'an didn't want to explain further.
She turned to leave. He Nianchu didn't expect this woman to not listen to his advice. Her eyes flashed fiercely. Then don't blame her for being rough.
"Men, arrest her and send her to the police station."
"Yes."
Xia An'an was shocked. She looked at the security guard who was rushing towards her.
Was she really going to be arrested and sent to the police station?
Just as she didn't know what to do, a cold voice pierced through the crowd and exploded in the air.
"Stop."
Everyone looked towards the direction of the voice. A tall and handsome man walked out from the crowd. He exuded an intimidating aura that made people shudder.
"CEO!"
Jiang Shixuan thought that she had seized the opportunity to claim credit. She quickly ran to Si Lijue and said, "Just now, there was an ugly woman who insisted that she was your maid and lived on the 18th floor with you. I caught her red-handed!"
Si Lijue didn't respond. He only looked at her with a cold gaze.
At that moment, Jiang Shixuan thought that she was being strangled by the throat. She couldn't say a word and her body couldn't help but tremble.
He Nianchu grew up in Family He. What kind of storms had he not experienced? Even when she met the emperor of a country, she had never been afraid. But now, this man made her shudder. When she met Si Lijue's cold eyes, she felt like her body was being electrified. Her heart suddenly started to beat faster.
This was the first time she felt like a deer running wild.
He Nianchu suppressed the throbbing in his heart. He walked over and said, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Si. We've brought you a bad experience. We will immediately take this woman away. For the trouble she caused, please …"
Before she could finish, Si Lijue walked past her. It was as if he didn't see her at all.
He Nianchu's body stiffened. He looked at Si Lijue in surprise.
Because of her status as the eldest daughter of Family He, no one dared to ignore her. All the men were extremely attentive to her. But this man actually treated her like air?
Si Lijue walked to Xia An 'an and said, "Didn't you say that you wanted to stay in the house? Why did you run out? "
Xia An 'an's nose was a little red. She lowered her head and said in a muffled voice, "Didn't you say that I would become a fool if I stayed in the house all the time? I just wanted to go out at night to get some fresh air. Who knew that I would encounter such a thing? "
Si Lijue looked at her pitiful appearance and actually felt a little sorry for her.
His gaze softened. He reached out and patted Xia An 'an's head. "In the future, if you want to go out, let me know. When I'm not around, at least let Xiang Nian accompany you."
Xia An 'an said in a muffled voice, "Okay."
When everyone saw the interaction between Si Lijue and Xia An 'an, their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
Could it be that this ugly woman was really related to Si Lijue?
Jiang Shixuan's eyes almost popped out. She looked at Si Lijue and Xia An 'an in disbelief. In her impression, Si Lijue had always been cold to women. But now, he was actually so gentle to this ugly woman!
This couldn't be real!
She must be dreaming!
He Nianchu was also upset. When she spoke to him, he ignored her. But now, he was so focused on this ugly woman. This was like a slap to her face.
"You're not scared, are you?"
Si Lijue asked as if there was no one else around.
Xia An 'an had been holding it in. But when Si Lijue asked, she felt especially wronged. But she didn't want to be so pretentious. So even if her eyes were brimming with tears, she held them back and said, "No."
"CEO Si."
Xiang Nian walked forward.
Si Lijue nodded and said to Xia An 'an, "You go back to the house with Xiang Nian first. I have something to settle. I'll take you where you want to go later."
"Okay."
Xia An 'an followed Xiang Nian back to the suite. Si Lijue turned around and looked coldly at Jiang Shixuan.
Jiang Shixuan's face instantly turned pale. She looked at Si Lijue in fear.
"CEO … CEO … I …"
