Chapter 698 Ugly and Annoying

Although Han Meilin was not favored by the Han family, she always felt superior wherever she went, as she was the eldest daughter of the Han family.

Now someone was publicly saying that she was ugly, which was like stepping on the tail of a cat. She immediately screamed, “Who are you? How dare you say that about me?”

When she entered the room, she had been focused on attacking Wei Yanran. Now, she noticed Qin Haodong sitting next to her.

When she saw the two of them holding hands intimately, she suddenly seemed to find a new outlet for her anger and screamed, “Wei Yanran, you’re always pretending to be such a chaste girl and say that you want to pursue art. In the end, you’re secretly keeping a gigolo boy!”

Wei Yanran was shocked and was about to pull her hand back, but Qin Haodong kept a firm grip on her hand.

“It’s true that ugly people like to make trouble. I am Yanran’s boyfriend. So what? Is there anything wrong with that?”

In fact, although Han Meilin was not a stunning beauty, she was good-looking and certainly not ugly. It was just a pity that she was in the presence of Wei Yanran and Hua Mingrui.

If there were no comparisons, there was no problem. This was a well-known saying. Standing before these two stunning beauties however, she definitely lost out in terms of beauty.

“You gigolo boy, what right do you have to talk to me like that…”

After being called an ugly woman by Qin Haodong, Han Meilin was about to explode. But suddenly, she saw the sunglasses and hats which were on the side. The anger on her face was instantly replaced by excitement. She cried out again, “Wei Yanran, no wonder I could not contact you all this while. It turns out that you are about to elope with someone.”

Since she received the news that Wei Yanran had been put on the market by the Wei family for the marriage alliance, she had been very excited. She had been calling Wei Yanran all the time, hoping to take pleasure in her misfortune as soon as possible.

But she did not expect that Wei Yanran’s phone had been turned off and she couldn’t get through until she met her here.

Hearing her thoughts being exposed, Wei Yanran immediately said nervously, “I… I didn’t. Han Meilin, don’t talk nonsense.”

“You’re still not admitting it!” Han Meilin was so excited that her cheeks turned red. She didn’t have time to attack Qin Haodong who was seated next to her and said to Wei Yanran,

“As the eldest daughter of the Wei family, you are engaged to be married, but you are still dating this toy boy here.”

“I couldn’t contact you this afternoon and I could not locate you. You have not returned home yet and there are hats and sunglasses beside you. Who would believe that you are not eloping?”

“Does this have anything to do with you?” Qin Haodong frowned. This person was really annoying. He came here to have a meal, but he didn’t expect to meet such a pest here.

He said impatiently, “Not only are you ugly, but you are annoying as well. Get out of here and remember to close the door.”

“How dare you talk to me like that? You’re just a person who relies on your face to earn a living!” Being ridiculed by Qin Haodong time and again, Han Meilin was furious and her face turned ferocious and ugly. “Today, I’ll tell you that this has something to do with me. I’ll report you to the Wei family later.

“You little toy boy, you will be caught by the Wei family. They would turn you into a eunuch.”

Even after spewing forth so much anger, she did not seem to feel relieved. She turned back and shouted at Wei Yanran, “Aren’t you the most favored daughter of the Wei family? Now you are still planning to elope with this gigolo boy, I’ll see if you still have the face to go out and meet others.”

“When your family master comes, I’d like to see how you’ll explain this. Maybe you’ll be driven out of the Wei family. Let’s see how you can still maintain the title of one of the three beauties of the capital in the future.”

Qin Haodong shook his head slightly. It seemed that jealousy was really a terrible vice, for it to cause a person to be so vindictive.

He really couldn’t be bothered to watch this hateful woman’s performance. He stood up and kicked her toward the door.

Han Meilin had not expected Qin Haodong to be so forceful. He hit her without saying a word. He kicked her more than ten meters away and then kicked her out of the private room.

She stood up awkwardly at the door and pointed into the room, shouting, “Little toy boy, Wei Yanran, wait and see. The master of the Wei family is here. I’ll report it now. I’d love to see where you can run to!”

After that, she quickly ran to the side.

Seeing Han Meilin running away, Wei Yanran suddenly became nervous. She pulled Qin Haodong and said, “You’d better run. You won’t be able to leave when my dad comes.”

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Why should I run away? Even if I have to go, I will go with you after we have dinner.”

Wei Yanran stamped her feet anxiously and said, “Haodong, you don’t know how terrible my family is. If my father finds out what happened between us, he will kill you. I’m a member of the Wei family. They won’t do anything to me. Hurry and run.”

Hua Mingrui also said nervously, “Yes, this is not the time to put on a tough act. You should leave quickly, or it will be too late.”

“I’m not leaving.” Qin Haodong said happily, “Don’t be nervous. I’m here for you.”

“Alas! I can’t explain this to you in such a short time.”

Hua Mingrui thought for a moment and said, “Well, the only way now is to say that you are my boyfriend and it has nothing to do with Yanran. I hope we can deceive the master of the Wei family.”

At this time, Wei Yanran really did not care about anything else. She nodded and said, “That’s a good idea. When my dad comes, we can say that you are Mingrui’s boyfriend. Maybe we can get away with it.”

“Okay, I’ll do whatever you say.”

Of course, Qin Haodong did not take Wei Junce seriously. At this time, the waiter began to serve the dishes. He said, “Let’s eat quickly. The dishes will be cold later.”

After that, he brought the two girls to the dining table, picked up the chopsticks and began eating.

Wei Yanran and Hua Mingrui were usually calm and elegant, but at this moment, they were very nervous and could not eat. They kept looking at the door from time to time, for fear that Wei Junce would suddenly appear.

In a private room not far from them, the master of the Wei family, Wei Junce, the master of the Han family, Han Wuji and the master of the Zhao family, Zhao Cangqiong, were sitting together drinking.

As soon as the auction was over, they came here, ahead of Qin Haodong.

As the masters of the top great families, the relationship between them was not like that of ordinary people. They were friends and enemies. They were partners and competitors and their actions were based on interests.

The reason why they gathered together today was due to one common topic and that was Qin Haodong, the new force in the capital.

Han Wuji said, “I heard that the old fox Qin Zhanao was arrogant today. He didn’t come in person, but sent Qin Feiyu. As a result, his relationship with Qin Haodong is in a deadlock.

“Qin Zhanlong then ran to help his son and grandson. In the end, all three of them had their hair shaved off. It was so embarrassing.”

Zhao Cangqiong said, “Qin Haodong is too strong. We can’t compete with him on our own at all.”

Wei Junce said, “In contrast, the Chu family is more tactful and has played the emotional card. I heard that Chu Xuanyue has promised to go back and celebrate Chu Shanhe’s birthday.”

Han Wuji said, “The strength of the Tang Sect is too powerful now. It’s definitely not a wise idea to fight against them. Compared with that, our marriage strategy is still a good idea.”

Zhao Cangqiong said, “It’s a pity that Qin Haodong hasn’t given us a clear answer yet. I don’t know what he’s thinking.”

Wei Junce said, “What do your granddaughters think about this marriage? Are they in agreement?”

Zhao Cangqiong said, “Qingwu is very unhappy, but this is a big family affair. How can she oppose it?”

Han Wuji said, “My granddaughter didn’t say anything, but she has always been proud. I guess she’s not happy either. But as Mr. Zhao said, it’s not up to them to decide.”

Wei Junce sighed. Wei Yanran’s reaction was a little beyond his expectation. The girl sneaked out and there was still no news about her. Even her phone was turned off. This was something quite unimaginable.

Zhao Cangqiong said, “Master Wei, how did Yanran react?”

As soon as he finished speaking and before Wei Junce could answer, the door opened and Han Meilin rushed in from the outside.

Seeing that she was a member of the Han family, Han Wuji’s face darkened. “How dare you! Who let you in?”

“Grandpa, I have something important to tell you.”

Han Meilin was panting heavily. She looked extremely miserable. Her hair was disheveled and her snow-white skirt had a large footprint on it.

Han Wuji said discontentedly, “What’s the matter? Tell me quickly. Can’t you see that I’m entertaining guests?”

“Grandpa, I just saw Wei Yanran. She was eating in a room with a toy boy. It seemed as if she’s planning to elope after their meal.”

After she said this, the expressions of the three people changed and the atmosphere in the room became tense. Both Han Wuji and Zhao Cangqiong looked at Wei Junce.

Wei Junce frowned. Although Wei Yanran was opposed to this marriage, she had always been a good girl. He had never heard of her being involved with any man. Why did she suddenly want to elope with someone?

He said to Han Meilin, “Did you make a mistake?”

“It’s impossible, Grandpa Wei. I have been classmates with Yanran for so many years. I can’t be wrong. I was talking to her in the private room just now.

“See the footprint on my skirt. I was kicked by that man. That guy looks very arrogant.”

Speaking of this, the corners of Han Meilin’s mouth showed a hint of complacency. Over the years, she had always been jealous that Wei Yanran was better than her and had a higher status in her family. She was more beautiful than her. Today, she finally found a chance to trample on Wei Yanran.

As a member of a big family, she knew very well how much the Seven Great Families hated elopement. According to the family rules, they would punish her severely. She was afraid that Wei Yanran would not be able to start over in this life. Maybe she would end up like Chu Xuanyue and be expelled from the family.

When he saw Han Meilin’s pathetic state, Wei Junce already believed that what she said was true. His heart sank.

He had just made engagement plans for her, but his granddaughter ran away. If the news reached Qin Haodong’s ears, no one knew whether this man would come to the Wei family with four level nine supreme power masters. He couldn’t afford the consequence.

Thinking of this, he suddenly stood up and said, “Girl, where are they? Take me to have a look!”

“Grandpa Wei, it’s not far from here. I’ll take you there right away. We must hurry, or they might run away.”

If it weren’t for Wei Junce’s feelings, Han Meilin would have laughed out loud. She seemed to have foreseen Wei Yanran’s miserable ending.

She walked out in great excitement with Wei Junce. Zhao Cangqiong and Han Wuji looked at each other and followed them.

If Wei Yanran really eloped with someone, it would be a good thing for their families. After all, there would be one less competitor, but they were very shrewd. They hid their joy in their hearts and did not show it.

Han Meilin rushed to the door of Qin Haodong’s private room with the three family masters. She kicked the door open and rushed in. She pointed inside and shouted, “Grandpa Wei, look, they’re here.”
