Chapter 519 The planned luxury hotel treatment was directly cancelled.
After exchanging a few words, the three of them finalized their arrangements.
After escorting Chen Ping into the lobby of the guesthouse, Chu Xin drove away first.
Before Chen Ping could even find out where her room was, Director Ke rushed over in a panic, "Chen Ping, didn't Li Fangfang come with you?!"
Chen Ping nodded calmly, but before she could explain, Chu Yunting spoke first, "Director Ke, don't worry, she won't get lost."
Director Ke's face was long and grimaced, and he was sweating profusely. "It's not that I'm worried about her getting lost, it's just... sigh!"
This sigh contained both helplessness and bewilderment. He wasn't here on a business trip; he was here to be caught in the middle.
In all his years of marriage, he had never felt so powerless between his wife and his mother as he did today.
But he couldn't really blame Chen Ping. His colleague surnamed Wang had told him what happened after they left, and he could only say that Li Fangfang was too dramatic.
Just then, there was another commotion at the entrance of the guesthouse. Director Ke turned around to look, and the person who came was none other than Li Fangfang.
Director Ke quickly walked a few steps to greet him, "You're here? Oh dear, what's wrong with you..."
He didn't say what, then changed his words and said, "Don't just stand there, go and rest first."
He didn't mention dinner later. Given this situation, how can we possibly sit down and eat together peacefully?
He wanted to get Li Fangfang away to settle things, but Li Fangfang disagreed. She had been getting slapped in the face ever since she got off the train and was already furious. It was no wonder she wouldn't listen to him.
She shoved away Director Ke's hand, which was trying to help her with her luggage, and her eyes were filled with a tangible hatred that pierced Chen Ping and Chu Yunting.
"So what if she's from Kyoto? What's so great about her! Chen Ping, what kind of man from a good family could you possibly be with? It's not even close to happening yet, who do you think you are to kick me when I'm down!"
"Li Fangfang!"
Director Ke immediately stopped her, asking, "What exactly is this old lady trying to do?"
Chu Yunting actually spends most of his time acting like a carefree playboy, and even when he picked up Chen Ping and her group today, he didn't act all serious and reliable.
It's not surprising that Li Fangfang would think that way.
Although Chu Yunting was not very old, he had quite a lot of life experience. He did not rush to refute Li Fangfang's words, but slowly straightened his clothes. When he looked up at her again, his eyes and demeanor had changed.
Even if he can't compare to Zhou Yichen, he's definitely good enough to intimidate people.
"People from Kyoto are nothing special, but at least I'm not as disgusting as you, thinking you're so great. Comrade Li, right? If you like judging others so much, why don't you take care of yourself first?"
Don't your family find you annoying? Even though my family isn't considered prestigious in our circle, our upbringing absolutely forbids me from being as rude as you. Otherwise, I'd lock me up and never let me out the door, because I'm such a nuisance!
Chu Yunting just looked at Li Fangfang and spoke in a casual and disdainful tone. After saying the last sentence, his eyes became even more indescribable, as if Li Fangfang was something unspeakable.
Chen Ping suppressed a laugh as she watched Chu Yunting cast his spell; she knew that this was the best he could do.
Director Ke opened his mouth, unsure of what to say to prevent Li Fangfang from exploding. He had been wrong; that Comrade Xiao Chu and her brother were cut from the same cloth—they were both incredibly sharp-tongued.
Let's talk about Li Fangfang.
She was initially intimidated by Chu Yunting's imposing manner, but later she was so angry by his words that her lips trembled, and she couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
"You, you, are you even a man...?"
How could you be so harsh on a woman?
Look, some people are like that. They are lenient with themselves but strict with others. They can say whatever they want, but if someone retaliates even slightly, they act as if they have suffered a great injustice.
"Look at what you're saying! Do I have to differentiate between men and women when I'm being sarcastic? You don't think that just because I'm a guy I have to give in to you, do you? No way, no way!"
In the past, Chu Yunting would have been annoyed by self-righteous women, but he wouldn't have gone so far as to embarrass them. However, Li Fangfang was really clueless and kept pestering him, so he shouldn't blame him for speaking harshly.
Li Fangfang was caught red-faced with embarrassment. She looked at this person and that person, feeling utterly humiliated.
Realizing she couldn't stay any longer, she let out a wail and ran into the inner room of the guesthouse.
Throughout the journey, he never forgot about his luggage.
Upon seeing this, Director Ke quickly sent a colleague to lead her to the prepared room.
Then, turning his head, he said, "Look at this, Comrade Chu, you don't need to..."
He tried to smooth things over, but Chu Yunting didn't want to listen. "Everyone, are you all rested enough? Okay, let's go eat now. Our guesthouse has a dining hall, and the food is just as good as a state-run restaurant."
If you don't want to eat here, then let's go to the state-run restaurant; it's not far, just a few steps away.
At first, Chu Yunting genuinely wanted to treat these people well to give Chen Ping face, but they were clearly more afraid of Li Fangfang or the people behind her. Although their words were impartial, their actions still seemed to suggest that Chen Ping should be more tolerant.
This made Chu Yunting feel a bit conflicted, and the grand hotel treatment he had originally planned was directly canceled.
