Rong Qi held onto Gu Yuyan to help her steady herself, waving her hand and shaking her head. Rong Qi said, “I’m fine.”
He Jinghan looked at Rong Qi’s face, his expression freezing momentarily, his lips slightly creasing in a faint frown.
Gu Yuyan had experienced a false alarm and had almost thought she would tumble down the stairs. After steadying herself, she raised her head and apologized to Rong Qi, “Thank you.”
However, as Gu Yuyan got a clear view of Rong Qi’s face, she inhaled sharply, her eyes filled with disbelief, and said, “You… how could it be?”
People behind them, like Su Yifan, Rong Feiyu, and others, also arrived.
Rong Feiyu looked at the unmasked person and her heart skipped a beat. She had seen that woman’s face from the side before, and she bore a striking resemblance to Rong Qi. Rong Feiyu thought she had the chance to go over and confirm it now.
‘If it truly was Rong Qi, then…’ Rong Feiyu thought nervously and followed Su Yifan as he approached.
Su Yifan, observing He Jinghan and Rong Qi standing so close, felt a surge of disgust. Su Yifan strode forward, positioning himself between He Jinghan, Rong Qi, and the crowd.
“Are you okay?” Su Yifan asked as he glanced at He Jinghan, who Su Yifan thought was seeking attention, then turned to Rong Qi.
However, as Su Yifan got a clear view of Rong Qi’s face, his expression changed abruptly. He stammered, “W-why do you look like this?”
Surprise mixed with a trace of disdain filled Su Yifan’s tone.
Rong Qi’s lips curled slightly, and he turned to face the crowd. Her originally fair complexion now scared everyone away in quick succession.
“Ew~ So ugly! I’m about to puke my dinner from New Year’s Eve.”
“Oh my god, so terrifying to look at, someone give her a mask quickly. I’m going to have nightmares tonight!”
“Yeah, exactly. When she had the mask on just now, I thought she was a pretty woman. Who would’ve thought she’d be so hideous!”
The crowd was clearly disgusted, yet they couldn’t resist pointing and whispering about Rong Qi, their eyes full of disdain.
He Jinghan furrowed his eyebrows, positioning himself in front of Rong Qi, and said, “Have you all seen enough? If you’re done, you can leave.”
Looking at these faces full of ugliness and contempt, He Jinghan’s handsome brows and eyes couldn’t hide his deep disgust.
Xue Shuyi and the others looked at He Jinghan, who was speaking up for the ugly woman. They couldn’t help but say, “Jinghan, come over here quickly. Why are you standing with that ugly woman? Aren’t you afraid?”
He Jinghan’s cold gaze swept over them, locking eyes with the opposite party. He squinted slightly and said, “Who I stand with is my freedom. If you judge a person based on their appearance, then I have no interest in associating with you.”
“Jinghan, we’re just looking out for you.”
He Jinghan’s face remained stern, not saying a word.
Seeing that, the students from their class began to criticize He Jinghan for not understanding goodwill and acting pretentious. They waved their hands, beckoning Xue Shuyi and the others back into the private room to continue their enjoyment.
However, just then, the drunken man who had been kicked down the stairs earlier unexpectedly climbed back up, followed by several burly men.
“Boss, it’s this pretty boy and… damn, this hideous woman who attacked me!”
The burly men rushed over, their faces full of hostility as they glared at Rong Qi and He Jinghan. One of the burly men said, “It’s you two who hurt my brother. Damn, looking for a fight, huh!”
As the burly man spoke, he turned to look at Rong Qi, his face full of disgust. He spat out, “Ugh! So ugly! Coming out and making a spectacle like this, why don’t you just die? What’s even more rare is that a pretty boy is standing up for you. So disgusting! Watch me knock you back into your mother’s womb with a single punch!”
With those words, the burly man clenched his fist and attacked Rong Qi’s face. At the same time, He Jinghan was also entangled by the other men.
The man’s punch carried tremendous force, and as it swept across Rong Qi’s face, it brought forth a gust of wind..
