CHAPTER 179: CHAPTER 180: RENDERED SPEECHLESS

Ni Jia was flushed with anger from being yelled at. She had been with Li Tingyan for over two years, and although he was always cold to her, he had never lost his temper with her like this. It must be that village girl who badmouthed her. They say rural people have the nastiest minds!

"Tingyan, how can you say that to me? You know I’ve liked you for two years, yet you chose a lowly rural person over me!"

"Doctor Ni, you keep saying ’lowly rural person’ as if you’re so noble. What’s wrong with being from the countryside? I didn’t eat your family’s rice. If you look three generations back, who isn’t from the countryside?" Nianyang said with a sarcastic smile.

"Besides, without rural people farming and planting, where would you, Doctor Ni, get the rice to act so arrogantly here? You eat the rice grown by rural people and yet look down on them. You’ve got a lot of nerve!"

"Well said!"

Around them, some people with rural backgrounds couldn’t help but clap and cheer.

Li Tingyan’s gaze towards Nianyang grew brighter. He always knew his little wife was sharp-tongued, but every time he witnessed it, he was still smitten.

Ni Jia was trembling with anger. Despite being a college graduate, she was silenced by a young girl.

"Doctor Ni, I’ve made it clear long ago that I have no feelings for you. I only love my wife, no matter if she’s from the countryside or the city. To me, she’s the best person in the world. If I hear you insult my wife again, don’t blame me for being rude!" Li Tingyan directly issued a stern warning!

Ni Jia was so scared that she trembled, then she turned and ran out in tears!

Li Tingyan was just too much!

He knew full well she liked him, yet he embarrassed her in front of so many people!

"General Manager Li, Doctor Ni is at least a girl. Wasn’t that too much..."

Sheng Feng couldn’t help but stand up for Ni Jia, feeling a pang of resentment towards Li Tingyan for the first time. He really couldn’t understand why Li Tingyan didn’t like Doctor Ni and had to be with a naive village girl?

It must be because this village girl is too cunning, Sheng Feng thought, throwing a cold glance at Nianyang.

Li Tingyan spoke coldly, "Sheng Feng, know your place. Even I can’t bear to say a harsh word to my wife. If anyone makes her unhappy, I’ll make them even more unhappy. Got it?"

Li Tingyan wasn’t a fool. Ni Jia had just met Nianyang. How would she know Nianyang was from the countryside, if not from Sheng Feng, who was eager to please Ni Jia?

Sheng Feng initially wanted to criticize Nianyang a bit more, but hearing Li Tingyan’s threatening words, he immediately cowered and left unwillingly.

Li Tingyan drove everyone else out, then hugged the obviously upset girl and said, "Nini, I’m sorry you had to go through that."

He could guess that while he was unconscious, his little wife must have suffered grievances.

Nianyang reached out and poked Li Tingyan on the chest, "I must say, Li brother, you’re quite the charmer. Even the famous Doctor Ni is into you!"

Li Tingyan grabbed Nianyang’s hand, "Wife, speak normally. Doctor Ni may like me, but I already turned her down. I ignore her most of the time. You have to believe me, I only like you!"

"I’ve been working hard at school to aim for Pingjing University just to be closer to you, and you’re surrounded by so many women..."

Nianyang said bitterly, thinking of his childhood friend Chu Huan, and she suddenly felt angry.

"Get away, don’t hug me. I shouldn’t have come today!" Nianyang pushed him away in frustration, using so much force that she ended up knocking Li Tingyan to the ground.
