In this situation, the pastry in Tan Xiyao’s hand accidentally touched Wei Haocang’s lips.
This seemingly insignificant gesture caused Wei Haocang to tremble all over.
It was already very hard for him to hold out until now.
Because the banquet hall was filled with delicious delicacies, and the aroma emanating from these dishes had been torturing Wei Haocang at every moment.
If it weren’t for Wei Qingxiao constantly suppressing him, he would have already lost control long ago.
But this pastry brushing against his lips was like the final straw that broke the camel’s back, completely shattering Wei Haocang’s sanity.
His expression suddenly turned intensely feral. He snapped his mouth open and bit down on the pastry without hesitation.
Tan Xiyao let out a horrific scream, for along with the pastry, one of her fingers was bitten off.
Racked with agony, Tan Xiyao trembled uncontrollably.
Meanwhile, Wei Haocang lost all rationality, lunging directly at the table and grabbing plate after plate of exquisitely crafted snacks, shoving them chaotically into his mouth.
His horrifyingly savage eating manners instantly silenced the lively banquet hall.
Everyone froze in shock, staring at Wei Haocang, who now resembled a wild beast. No one could make sense of what was happening.
Xue An let out a faint sigh, a trace of compassion appearing in his eyes as he murmured softly, "You’ve suffered enough."
In the pin-drop silence, Wei Qingxiao, who had been talking to others, sensed that something was amiss and whipped around. The sight that met her eyes instantly turned her face dark as iron.
Because the thing she feared the most had finally happened!
Tan Xiyao clutched her injured hand, now missing a finger, her face full of terror as she looked at Wei Haocang, who was devouring food like a ravenous beast. Her body shook like a sieve.
The expressions of everyone else also started to twist into odd shapes.
Even the most unaware person could now see that something was dreadfully wrong with the Wei Family’s young master.
No normal person would ever eat with such abandon!
The Family Head of the Luo Family, Luo Gaoyang, exchanged a glance with his peers, and they all saw the understanding in each other’s eyes.
The rumors were true.
The Wei Family’s young master indeed had issues.
Against this backdrop of strange tension, Wei Qingxiao’s face underwent a series of changes, but her steps did not falter. She quickly strode over to the table, raised her hand, and delivered a resounding slap.
Slap!
The sharp sound of the slap echoed throughout the banquet hall.
Tan Xiyao screamed miserably, her body sent flying from the force of the blow. She crashed onto a table, smashing all the dishes and utensils on it.
The clattering and breaking sounds caused many attendees to show subtle shifts in expression.
Wei Qingxiao’s face was ashen as she stared at Wei Haocang, who was still hunched over the table, stuffing food into his mouth. A wave of exhaustion suddenly washed over her.
She had worked painstakingly hard, managing to achieve just a sliver of progress, only to end up with such a humiliating scenario.
Suppressing the sorrow threatening to overwhelm her, she reached out, grabbed Wei Haocang’s wrist, and said in a low voice, "Cang’er, stop eating! We need to leave!"
Only Wei Qingxiao’s words could calm Wei Haocang down during his episodes.
As soon as her words reached his ears, Wei Haocang began to settle down. He ignored the grease and crumbs smeared all over his face, flashing a stupid grin.
Wei Qingxiao held back the tears that threatened to spill from her eyes. Maintaining her composure, she spoke indifferently, "Please excuse today’s unfortunate incident. We’ll be leaving now."
Having said this, she grabbed her brother’s wrist and began to walk out of the banquet hall.
The melancholy and desolation in her bearing moved Luo Jian deeply.
But Luo Xuan was practically on the verge of laughing out loud.
This was perfect!
I won’t believe for a second that after seeing this so-called eldest son of the Wei Family behaving like a fool, my brother would still harbor any thoughts regarding her.
As expected.
Luo Qifeng stood frozen, his face full of shock as he stared at the backs of Wei Qingxiao and her brother. There was a flicker of conflict in his eyes, but at last, he dropped his gaze and refused to look anymore.
As the legitimate firstborn of the Luo Family, Luo Qifeng was no fool.
Previously, Wei Qingxiao had been worth pursuing. She possessed everything he desired.
