Chapter 360: Break Off the Engagement! (2)
Damn it! She had already aimed the bullet accurately at Zuo Weiyi’s heart. Unfortunately, Zuo Weiyi did not die. Tengtang Xi was seriously dissatisfied.
Tengtang Xi was filled with anger and hatred as she thought about Zuo Weiyi who had already woken up safely in the hospital!
When Tengtang Xi saw that Shi Nuannuan was about to walk out of the front door, she could not help but smile before she said contemptuously, “I am sorry if I sound a little unreasonable, but I cannot help but wonder what kind of attitude Grandpa Shi has toward the Tengtang family now?”
As soon as she heard Tengtang Xi’s voice, Shi Nuannuan who was already at the door could not help but turn around to glare at Tengtang Xi who was sitting on the sofa.
The tone of her voice was very unpleasant to the ear!
As soon as he heard her voice, Shi Le looked at Tengtang Xi unpleasantly.
“What do you mean by that?”
Tengtang Xi seemed to be even more arrogant and defiant compared to her grandfather.
“Xi-er, don’t be so unreasonable!” Tengtang Li could not help but whisper as he reprimanded his granddaughter as soon as he heard her words.
However, he was, in fact, relatively satisfied with her unreasonable behavior.
Although the power and the reputation of the Shi family was in fact even bigger than the Tengtang family, they could never allow the reputation of the Tengtang family to be slandered just like that.
After Shi Yuting called off the engagement in public the last time, he had already been secretly holding a grudge against the Shi family. However, Tengtang Li did not dare to say anything or express his resentment because of Shi Le’s identity and status. This time, Tengtang Li actually felt somewhat more comfortable because his granddaughter actually had the audacity and courage to talk to Shi Le in this manner.
Of course, he still had to maintain a superficial front.
“Your grandson is obviously already engaged to me, Tengtang Xi. However, it seems as though he is always running into the arms of another woman. Don’t you think this is very embarrassing and awkward for me? What does he take me for?”
Shi Le was stunned for a moment, and he did not know what to say when he was faced with Tengtang Xi’s sudden words.
Moreover, Tengtang Li, who was sitting at the side, did not say anything anymore.
Tengtang Li wanted to see what kind of explanation the Shi family intended to give the Tengtang family.
The wedding that was supposed to be held as scheduled had repeatedly been delayed each and every time, because of Shi Yuting’s resistance. Does this mean that as long as Shi Yuting was unwilling, then his granddaughter’s wedding should only be delayed each and every time?
The foreign media had also been criticizing the Tengtang family nowadays. The reason why they came to the Shi family mansion today was because they wanted a satisfactory answer.
If the Shi family was going to keep their words and maintain the marriage contract, then they would have to hold and proceed with the wedding as soon as possible. If they did not want to keep the marriage contract anymore, then the Shi family could also forget about getting the Tengtang family’s vote!
Tengtang Li seemed to have planned out everything.
If his granddaughter could not become the first lady, then Shi Le’s grandson should just forget about being elected as the new president!
Shi Le was very silent. Was he really the one who cause this situation today?
“Mr. Shi, I think we should just break off this engagement!” Tengtang Li said arrogantly without even looking at Shi Le at all. This was because Tengtang Li was very confident that Shi Le would never agree to it.
Tengtang Li thought that it was completely impossible for Shi Le to agree to break off the engagement because he would want to make sure that his precious grandson would successfully be elected as the next president of the country!
As Tengtang Li was being very proud and arrogant, Shi Le suddenly stood up and face him directly.
Tengtang Li and his granddaughter, Tengtang Xi, both raised their heads because they could not comprehend the situation.
In the next second, Shi Le bent his body and bowed in front of Tengtang Li before he said, “I am very sorry about everything that has happened regarding the wedding. In order not to damage and tarnish your granddaughter’s reputation any further, I agree with what you just said. Let’s call off the engagement!”
