As a brother taking his sister out for the first time, he certainly couldn’t let her suffer such an ordeal.

"What if I refuse?" The woman looked at Lu Jintian with a provocative expression and said, "You lot in your shabby looks, how dare you expect an apology from me?"

"You!" Lu Jintian’s face turned ugly. If it weren’t that he didn’t hit women, he would have already started reasoning with this woman and directly fought her.

"Shabby looks?" Jiang Xue was equally furious after hearing the woman’s words. She might not be wealthy, but she didn’t want to be labeled as shabby. Moreover, she could see that Lu Jintian had no experience dealing with such a woman, so she had to step up herself.

"Isn’t it true? Look at the clothes you’re wearing. If this isn’t shabby, then what is?" The woman finished her sentence, not waiting for Jiang Xue to respond, and continued, "Do you even know what kind of place this is? Is it somewhere you should be?"

"Heh, it’s the first time I’ve heard there’s personnel discrimination at a dining place?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter who had led them there immediately said, "Don’t listen to her nonsense. Our restaurant has no personnel discrimination; everyone who comes is our esteemed guest."

"You!" The woman glared at the waiter, looking as if she wanted to eat him alive. Although the restaurant had no personnel discrimination, everyone knew the patrons here were either rich or noble.

But as for Jiang Xue standing before her, there was nothing noble she could see. As for wealth, there was even less to consider, because the clothes Jiang Xue wore didn’t even have a brand.

How could someone who can’t even afford branded clothes be considered wealthy?

That’s precisely why she dared to act that way toward Jiang Xue. Otherwise, she would have already apologized if it were someone else.

"It seems that the one truly blind isn’t me, but someone else," Jiang Xue looked at the woman sarcastically. Though she didn’t explicitly name anyone, anyone with sense knew who she was referring to.

The woman’s face turned quite unsightly upon hearing Jiang Xue’s words. She raised her hand as if to strike. Jiang Xue, holding a child, wasn’t agile, and the woman was close to Jiang Xue. Seeing the hand about to hit Jiang Xue’s face, Lu Jintian became very anxious.

He raised his hand to block the woman’s, but unexpectedly a large hand intervened at the last moment, stopping her wrist just an inch from Jiang Xue’s face.

Failing to hit Jiang Xue, the woman was furious and turned her head angrily towards the person who grabbed her. Upon seeing, her expression changed dramatically.

At that moment, Jiang Xue also saw who came to her aid. Sure enough, her sixth sense was incredibly accurate.

The person who stopped the woman from hitting her was none other than Nangong Chen.

"Miss Jiang, are you alright?" Nangong Chen coldly released the woman’s wrist and looked at Jiang Xue with concern.

"I’m fine, thank you, Mr. Nangong," Jiang Xue responded calmly. Nangong Chen had helped her, so she couldn’t show him disdain.

But the woman, hearing their exchange, suddenly widened her eyes and asked Nangong Chen, "Third Brother, you know her?"

"Does it concern you?" Nangong Chen replied coldly, then asked Jiang Xue, "Miss Jiang, could you tell me what just happened?"

"Third Brother, how can you help her? She just bumped into me, and I’m still in pain," the woman became anxious upon hearing Nangong Chen’s intent to stand up for Jiang Xue.
