Therefore, Lin Zhi tolerated this humiliation and suffered it in silence. She also realized that she should stop provoking the actress for now.

  Hua Jin glanced at her before withdrawing his eyes quietly. He picked up a cup of tea and took a sip. However, he immediately furrowed his brows and spat it onto the plate.

  Seeing this, Yun Shishi asked with care, “Is it too hot?”


  He shook his head, his attitude slightly apathetic.

  Her expression became a bit indifferent due to this.

  Witnessing how her face had finally turned icy, the other woman let out a sneer.

  When she did, the idol glared at her. Within seconds, he had tossed the slightly scalding tea in his hand at her!

  Lin Zhi was unexpectedly splashed all over, screaming in pain as she had been burned. She stood up immediately, swatting away the hot tea on her body and shaking her clothes as she wailed.

  Although she was nimble, her skin under the clothes had still been burned red.

  The actor threw the teacup onto the ground harshly, causing it to smash into smithereens.

  Everyone was stunned by his abrupt fury. They were all too afraid to even breathe.

  Yun Shishi was taken aback, too. She did not expect that things would develop into such a scenario.

  His face was extremely icy as he spoke coldly. “Don’t you dare show that face!”


  “Hua Jin!”


  Lin Zhi cried in indignation, “What exactly are you trying to do?! You…… Did you want to disfigure my face?!”


  “Disfigure you?”


  He smiled in disdain. “If I wanted to do that, the cup of tea earlier would not only splash on your body!”


  Hearing this, she broke out in a cold sweat out of shock.

  Indeed, this guy had been merciful to have only splashed the tea on her body. If he had tilted his angle a little, it would have landed on her face.

  She was shaking with anger. It was winter thankfully and she was wearing thick clothes. Even if she had been burned a little, it was not to the extent of getting blisters.

  If they had been in the summer, her bosom would have been ruined.

  She could basically say goodbye to wearing any sexy dresses for any event she attended!

  However, having tea splashed on her was the greatest humiliation she had ever experienced.

  She bit her lower lip, her eyes wet with tears. She choked on her words sadly as she asked, “Why…… are you treating me like this?”


  What did she say wrong?

  She did not even say anything. The woman only subconsciously let out a sneer in mockery, yet she was treated this way!

  Hua Jin let out an enchanting and mocking smirk. His expression was suggestive. “There’s no particular reason. I just found you an eyesore.”


  “You……”


  What did he mean by an eyesore?

  He changed his demeanor because he was just protecting Yun Shishi; that was all!

  Why?

  Why did she have so many people around her that would protect and dote on her?!

  Lin Zhi was speechless with anger. She stomped her feet and her assistant at the side instantly went forward to calm her down, speaking with a pacifying smile, “Hey, don’t be rash. It’s alright! We’ll just change your clothes.”


  Following that, the assistant whispered into her ear, “Don’t stoop to his level; you won’t be able to win against him. I’ve checked it out, and it isn’t going to be much of an issue. Your clothes are just wet, so just change out and things will be fine. There’s no need to confront the idol over this…… This person isn’t Yun Shishi; it’s not good to offend him.”


  The actress accepted her words and wiped away her tears harshly before turning around and following her assistant to the washroom.

  Waiting until she was gone, the man returned to his seat expressionlessly. Everybody was slowly pulled out of their reverie and resumed their cheerful chatter and bantering. It was just infuriating, though, that things were not as joyful as before.
