An Zhiqian's expression darkened. He frowned and said, "There must be some misunderstanding here. But regardless, it's not right to just knock someone to the ground like this, is it?"
Su Qing sneered. "What? Are you saying, Young Master An, that I should have just stood here and taken a beating from your bodyguard? That would have been the 'appropriate' thing to do, right?"
"I didn't say that." An Zhiqian couldn't possibly admit to what she was implying. Otherwise, wouldn't that be an open admission that they were throwing their weight around?
This was the mainland, after all, not Xiangcheng. Besides, the Cheng Family was here. If word of this got out, it would damage the An Family's reputation.
Some things were fine to do in secret, but they could never be brought out into the open.
"Is that so?" Su Qing arched a brow. "But that's exactly what you meant."
An Zhiqian's brow furrowed deeper. "Miss, you're jumping to conclusions."
