Chapter 698
Of course, Xia Family Conglomerate is of utmost importance!
Xia Wealth glared at Wang Zimei, finding her utterly repulsive and became infuriated, “Look at yourself, you don’t look a bit like a lady of high society. Whom did you learn this shrewish behaviour from? You’ve utterly disgraced our whole family!”
Wang Zimei was enraged and began to cry – her husband was not even trying to comfort her. Was it all her fault that he was as irritable as if he had swallowed gunpowder?
“Aren’t you the same? Offering 5 million to the Crown Prince of Country S and calling him Master Song. Now everyone is laughing at us. We are both as guilty for disgracing the family, huh?”
Xia Wealth resignedly sighed, “Who could’ve predicted that he would be the Crown Prince of Country S!”
In retrospect, Xia Wealth wished that he could erase everything that happened at the hospital that evening. But life doesn’t come with a rewind button – it was too late for regrets now. What a streak of bad luck the Xia family had run into recently!
Xia Wealth looked at his seemingly upstanding son, wondering how he ended up raising such an ungrateful child who only knew how to lecture his parents upon return. His daughter was still the considerate one!
Xia Yanyan was still reading comments online, her blood boiling with rage.
“Dad, Mom, stop quarreling. What other options do we have now? Even Han Sen’s older brother called me to persuade you both to apologize. This isn’t just a private matter anymore; it’s an international incident. If not handled properly, we would be traitors of our country. Then my influence as a national treasure among the public would be significantly diminished.”
If only she had known, she should’ve stopped her parents from going out the day before yesterday. Now, other than apologizing, what else could they do?
Xia Yanyan clenched her fist in anger and helplessness. It was frustrating that she, Xia Yanyan, would have to look up to Ye Xingguang, the White Lotus, from now on. She felt so upset that her eyes welled up with tears.noveldrama
When Ye Xingguang saw on the news that the Xia family were going to apologize to her parents, she immediately requested for a leave and drove home.
She did not believe for a second that this heartless couple from the Xia family would truthfully apologize to her parents. She decided she ought to be at home to prevent them from saying anything nasty that could upset her parents again.
When she reached home, several journalists from both local and international media were already outside, cameras in hand.
Navigating through the reporters, she entered the house and saw Wang Zimei bowing deeply in apology to her mother. Foreign diplomats from Country S were also present, making the situation rather serious.
She heard Wang Zimei sobbing and saying how sorry she was, admitting she was wrong and beneath contempt…
Xia Yanyan had accompanied her parents, she never dreamt that her family would be brought to their knees in public one day.
This sense of humiliation! Being made to feel inferior!
Xia Yanyan clenched her fist, but with dozens of cameras trained on her, she couldn’t allow her face to show any signs of displeasure.
“Uncle, Aunt, I am sorry. I apologize for my parents’ inappropriate remarks.”
Among the whole family, perhaps only Xia Ye Zhao felt true shame and remorse. His apology sounded sincere. On the contrary, Song Chuanqi had no interest in any of the high-sounding phrases that came from Xia Wealth and Wang Zimei.
Song Chuanqi said to Xia Ye Zhao, “This incident has nothing to do with you, there’s no need for you to feel guilty. As for Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia, your apology is laughable to me. So, you feel guilty because of my status? If it was an ordinary citizen instead, would you still feel that your words were not a mistake? I’ve always believed that in our country, everyone is treated as equals. Apparently, this is not the case in your hearts? Who gave you the sense of superiority?”
