471. It's not the First Time

Li Lisa froze and immediately shook off Lin Ya's
hand.

Mu Jungkook walked over slowly, and deliberate or
otherwise, stood in-between them.

Slightly taller than Lin Ya, Mu Jungkook glanced down at the other man in a slightly condescending sort of way. "What a coincidence."

As Mu Jungkook was standing too close, Lin Ya was
forced to take a step back.

His expression softening once more as he looked at
Mu Jungkook, Lin Ya was measured in his response.

"Chief Mu, how do you do."

Mu Jungkook eyed him briefly, then turned and cast a sidelong glance behind himself.

Li Lisa was pale, and she had one hand pressing down on her other shoulder, staring at Lin Yubi.

Lin Yubi stumbled another step backward at that look of contempt and hid behind Lin Ya, saying, "I didn't do it on purpose. I saw someone coming towards me, and on reflex, I..."

"... conveniently gave me a shove?" Li Lisa gave an icy laugh. "If that punch had landed on my head, I'd possibly be suffering a concussion now, you know that?"

Lin Yubi looked frightened as she grasped Lin Ya's
shirt tightly. She shouted timidly, "Big brother, I didn't
do it on purpose. She suddenly came at me, and I was completely caught off-guard..."

Lin Ya's expression was unfathomable and restrained.

He shielded her from Li Lisa's line of sight. He tried to smooth over the matter and said in a slightly apologetic tone, "I do apologize, Miss Li. This happened suddenly, and my sister was not quick enough to react Reflex sometimes will cause us to do
things that are not within our intention. We seek your understanding."

"It's not the first time, Mayor Lin," Li Lisa looked at Lin Ya icily. "It seems your sister isn't too fond of me."

"You're alright now, aren't you?" Wang Hao said.

"Furthermore, you guys were the ones who started
this. We were just acting in self-defense. Miss Lin was only passing by, and now you're dragging her
through the mud? You and your brother really share the same shameful behavior."

These words set Chi Bambam off again. He glared at Wang Hao and clenched his fists, saying, "You're full of sh..."

"Enough," Lin Ya spoke, obviously displeased.

"We're family. For my sake, could everyone just compromise and we'll let it go?"

Wang Lei and Wang Hao exchanged a look, reluctance written all over their faces.

But since Lin Ya had explicitly made this request, it
would have been inappropriate to still carry on.

Wang Hao put on a generous expression and spread his arms, saying, "Since Mayor Lin says we're family, we'll let it go then. However, I have to say, youngsters should refrain from being so impulsive. It's a good thing it's just us. If this happened with people you didn't know, you'd be beaten to a pulp today."

Chi Bambam could hardly put up with this.

Clearly, they were the ones who had been impertinent and even said that Lin Mina would make an easier wife to keep under control. Furthermore, they insulted Li Lisa.

And now they acted like they were being magnanimous and non-calculative?

As though able to read that belligerent expression on
his face, Lin Mina pulled him back and whispered
anxiously, "Forget it, let it go. Let's not create any more trouble."
