Married by Accident: The Rich CEO's Deeply Rooted Pampering Tactics

Chapter 167 Apology

Bai Ge nodded in agreement.

The two then went their separate ways.

Qiao Luo's alcohol tolerance was almost at its limit, so she simply went to the bar and ordered a low-alcohol cocktail, intending to use it to make small talk with people. However, as soon as she turned around, she was hit by a heavy force. She stumbled and almost fell. Looking closely, she realized that it was a waiter walking in front of her who had been knocked down and had bumped into her in the process.

Her white dress was stained with alcohol, large patches of red, a shocking sight.

The waiter fared even worse; the cocktails he had been carrying on his tray were completely spilled, and not only that, he was knocked to the ground, his palm pierced by a broken glass, and blood flowed from it.

Seeing this, Qiao Luo quickly handed him a tissue to wipe his face.

"Are you OK?"

The waiter shook his head, but he didn't seem unconcerned. After all, so much wine had been spilled and so many glasses broken; he was bound to be worried.

The person who hit the person remained unmoved and even started hurling insults.

"Get out of the way, good dogs don't get in the way!"

Not only did they not apologize, but they were also so arrogant. Qiao Luo couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up.

"Miss, you just bumped into someone, shouldn't you apologize?"

"Apologize? Who do you think you are? Mind your own business, what's it to you?" the woman demanded arrogantly.

Qiao Luo said, "Let me make this clear first. I'm not meddling in other people's business. I'm one of the victims in this incident. See the wine on my dress? It's because you bumped into someone that it turned out like this."

The woman scoffed, "I didn't directly hit you. Go find whoever hit you."

"So you admit you hit someone?" Qiao Luo seized on her mistake and asked back.

The woman opened her mouth, then probably realized she had said the wrong thing, and stammered, "I didn't say that."

"Really? Everyone here heard it."

At this moment, a number of onlookers had gathered around, and upon hearing Qiao Luo's words, they all turned to look at the woman.

The woman didn't seem to care at all.

"Who heard that?"

As she spoke, she looked around. Even the waiter who had been knocked down did not stand up to testify for Qiao Luo, since he was at the bottom of the hierarchy and had no right to speak.

Seeing that no one stood up to testify for Qiao Luo, the woman became even more arrogant, "See? Nobody heard you."

Qiao Luo wasn't too surprised by this. After all, most people are in the nature to watch the excitement, but not to stand up for the weak. It depends on the situation and the people involved.

Clearly, for them, the issue was wrong and the person was wrong, so naturally no one was willing to step forward and help.

She said, "In that case, why don't we have the staff on site retrieve the surveillance video? I think the answer will be in there."

As she spoke, she looked at the staff member who had rushed over after hearing the news, but the staff member waved his hand repeatedly and said, "Sorry, I don't have permission to view the surveillance footage."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Luo was taken aback, then said, "Then may I ask where the person with viewing privileges is? I can go and find him."

The staff member seemed a bit embarrassed.

Seeing this, the woman deliberately said, "See? Not only are you slandering me, but you're also making things difficult for the staff here. I think you're the one who bumped into me, and now you're trying to shift the blame onto me!"

The woman, in turn, slandered her.

Qiao Luo was furious; this person was too awful. Just as she was about to speak, the woman said again...

"So who let such a lowly person in? Don't they know this is a high society party?"

She deliberately raised her voice, as if afraid that others wouldn't hear her.

Sure enough, the onlookers started pointing and whispering.

Qiao Luo sensed something was wrong. After all, she had a mission tonight and didn't want to attract attention because of this. But the woman seemed to be deliberately making things worse, not only speaking loudly but also drawing everyone's attention to her.

Qiao Luo never causes trouble, but she is not afraid of trouble either, even if the current occasion is not suitable for arguing.

But since it concerns her reputation, she has no choice but to defend herself. After all, if those present saw it, they would misunderstand her as domineering and impolite. If she gave people that impression, it would be difficult to cooperate with them in the future.

Thinking this, she said,

"In that case, let's simulate what just happened and see who's really being blind."

Qiao Luo made the suggestion.

The woman scoffed, "Who are you? What gives you the right to just simulate something as you see fit?"

"What? You don't dare? Are you feeling guilty?" Qiao Luo retorted.
