Chapter 2226: Chapter 2223: Huo Man

Luo Lin touched her face, feeling somewhat frightened.

Huo Ning showed no mercy in a fight. Although the opponent appeared cold and aloof, she only felt her scalp and face aching, regretting her actions for a moment.

She shouldn’t have acted at the Chu family, and she certainly shouldn’t have acted on her own.

Huo Ning merely looked at her indifferently.

“Miss Chu, it’s my younger sister’s fault. Her nature… alas, you know, the family has taught her countless times, but it’s no use, that’s why this happened. Please don’t take it to heart with my younger sister; it’s all my fault for not stopping her.”

“Second Miss, what does this have to do with you? Huo Ning doesn’t like to talk, we can’t force her, right?”

“Exactly, she’s too reclusive.”

Several friends of Miss Huo the Second couldn’t help but defend her.

Chu Ziluo interrupted with a smile: “As the saying goes, a son’s fault is his father’s neglect. Actually, Miss Huo the Second is not wrong either. You were just there earlier, it seemed like the two were confronting each other for quite a while before they started fighting. If you were wise, you would’ve immediately pulled Miss Huo the Third away.”

“With Miss Huo the Third’s character, she wouldn’t strike first, probably wishing to find a quiet place instead. As for Miss Luo, though she’s a bit impulsive, it seems unlikely that she would chase after Miss Huo the Second to fight once she left.”

After speaking, Chu Ziluo asked Luo Lin, “Miss Luo, if Miss Huo the Third walked away from you, would you chase after her to fight?”

“… No.” Luo Lin wasn’t foolish at this moment. She knew Chu Ziluo wouldn’t let trouble erupt at the Chu family, and since the other party was already helping her to explain, she certainly didn’t want to be labeled as one who initiates fights and is impulsive.

“Miss Huo the Second, you see,” Chu Ziluo earnestly advised, “next time, if you attend someone else’s banquet, keep Miss Huo the Third and Miss Luo a bit further apart. Walking away could avoid trouble between them and spare others the hassle. After all, if either young miss gets hurt, it would create a big fuss, wouldn’t it be a ton of trouble.”

Huo Man’s face slightly changed, realizing Chu Ziluo had subtly implied it was intentional all within a few words, and she was seething.

She showed a bitter smile, speaking in a gentle, weak tone, “It’s all my fault for not handling things thoroughly. I just wanted my younger sister and Miss Luo to clear things up, better than being hostile every meeting.”

“Chu Ziluo, you’ve wronged Miss Huo the Second. She meant well.”

“Indeed.”

“Miss Huo the Second is so gentle, she couldn’t foresee both would end up fighting.”

Chu Ziluo nodded to the young misses speaking for Huo Man, pretending to ponder: “You’re right, I was merely making a suggestion. I had heard before that Miss Luo and Miss Huo the Third didn’t get along, presumably they have fought before.”

“I just thought, in the future, once Miss Huo the Third and Miss Luo get married, they probably won’t have much contact, so why reconcile? Better to just completely separate, and perhaps after many years, bygones will be bygones.”

Chu Ziluo gave Huo Man a sweet smile: “Miss Huo the Second, I’m only suggesting. After all, fighting at someone else’s place is indeed inappropriate. Today we are young, so it’s passable; if it were a grand banquet, wouldn’t it affect the young ladies’ reputation? You actually meant well, just be more prudent next time.”

“Thank you for your advice, Miss Chu. I will definitely act more prudently in the future.” Huo Man was already fuming inside, but on the surface, she looked gentle and weak, appearing thoroughly aggrieved.
