The next evening, Jiang Yan drove home seething with rage.
Before he even entered the dining room, he shouted angrily,
"Lili, you did this on purpose, didn't you? Was it you who had mom freeze my card? Do you have any idea how embarrassing it was for me just now?" frёewebηovel.cѳm
Because of the scandalous information spread online, he had been hounded by paparazzi for the past few days.
Not only that, but even his so-called brothers began making excuses to avoid him.
Enraged, he had some people threaten the paparazzi, successfully shaking them off. Then he extravagantly booked Ocas's venue, which finally convinced the bunch to hang out with him.
But just as he was about to pay the bill with his card, he suddenly received a notification from the bank that his account had been frozen.
He had mentally prepared himself for the possibility of the family card being frozen, as it had happened many times before.
So he had taken the precaution of getting a new card and depositing some money in it.
But this time, even his backup card had been frozen.
Right there and then, the club manager gave him a look of disdain, and his brothers showed even more contempt for him.
Other than Lili, Jiang Yan couldn't think of anyone else who would do such a thing.
However, faced with his questioning, Lili continued to eat her dinner at a leisurely pace, and even called a servant over to take a portion upstairs to Jiang Shixu.
Feeling deliberately ignored, Jiang Yan's anger flared even more, and he slammed his hands on the dining table with a "bang".
"Lili, I'm talking to you?!"
The sudden loud noise startled the surrounding servants, who all shrank back and bowed their heads.
In their eyes, this young master of the Jiang Family was an absolute ruffian, and they always went out of their way to avoid him whenever they encountered him at home.
Even Old Sir Jiang turned a blind eye to his behavior.
But this missy was like a moth to a flame, obstinately trying to rein him in.
How could a wild panther be so easily tamed?
Yet from start to finish, Lili did not even blink. The more agitated Jiang Yan became, the calmer she was, even slowing down her motions, such as wiping her mouth, to a crawl.
"Jiang Yan, getting so angry this late, you're going to have a fiery temper tomorrow."
Jiang Yan was infuriated to the point of laughter.
He could swallow his pride once, but that didn't mean he would always back down.
The reason he had given in previously was that he thought this girl would stop after making a fuss for a while, but he hadn't expected her to be so determined to make things difficult for him.
So he violently pulled out a chair and sat down with a cold expression.
"Fiery temper, my ass. Let's cut to the chase. Get my card unfrozen now, or don't blame me, your brother, for turning against you."
Lili leaned back in her chair, arms crossed, showing an expression full of meaning, "I wonder what kind of 'turning against me' you're referring to?"
Jiang Yan's face turned even sourer, "Lili, you're forcing my hand!"
He stood up and grabbed a cup from beside Lili's hand, intending to smash it on the ground when a slender, fair hand suddenly reached out and grabbed his throat. Then another hand wrapped around his shoulder.
The next second, Jiang Yan was forced into a backflip in mid-air.
He let out a miserable yell as he landed on the ground, but it wasn't over. Lili then kicked his knee hard.
This time, he clearly heard the sound of bones being displaced.
"Ah!! Dammit, Lili, are you trying to kill someone?!"
Lili calmly caught the cup in her hand and then gracefully seated herself back down.
