Xu Jiaojiao and Qi Shenbai took the same car. Xu Zhengyang arrived at the Xu Family villa before them, but he was not in a hurry to enter. Instead, he waited for the two of them at the door.

...

When he saw Xu Jiaojiao getting out of Qi Shenbai’s car, he put out the cigarette in his hand and patted her head. “Don’t get angry with them. They’re not worth it. No matter what happens, you have me, okay?”

Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes curved into a smile. “Okay. Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

“Good.” Xu Zhengyang reached out and brushed her bangs.

This was what Qi Shenbai saw when he got out of the car. An unreadable look flashed across his eyes as he strode over to Xu Jiaojiao’s side and took her hand.

Xu Jiaojiao was taken aback for a moment before she suddenly realized that the two of them were now ‘husband and wife’. It was normal for them to act intimately in front of their families.

Xu Zhengyang looked at their intertwined hands and felt inexplicably unhappy. However, there was nothing he could do about it for now.

The three of them walked inside. The atmosphere in the living room was tense. When the maid, Aunt Wang, saw them return, she hurriedly went forward to welcome them. “Young Master Zhengyang, Miss Jiaojiao, Master Shenbai, you’re back.”

In an instant, everyone subconsciously looked toward the door. Mr. and Mrs. Lu sat on the sofa, looking cross, while Lu Zhuo and Lu Huan stood by the side. When they saw Xu Jiaojiao and Qi Shenbai holding hands, all of their expressions darkened.

Lu Zhuo gritted his teeth as he stared at the couple. An indescribable anger burned in his heart, as if he had barged in on his cheating wife. His parents looked even angrier. However, before they could say anything, Xu Zhengyang said darkly, “What’s the matter? Do you want another beating? And now you’re even here for Round Two!”

Mrs. Lu was furious from the moment she saw him. “Tian Fanghua, your son is a menace!”

Tian Fanghua looked up at her son and pursed her lips without saying anything. However, she thought to herself, ‘Your son betrayed us first. He deserved that beating.’

Mr. Lu was relatively calmer. He said coldly, “Zhiming, we’ve been friends since our parents’ generation, but you and your family have gone a bit too far this time.” He then looked at his disappointment of a son. “1 admit, Lu Zhuo made a mistake, but he didn’t do anything to cross the line. No matter how angry you are, Zhengyang shouldn’t have hit him. Since we’ve been family friends for so long, we’ll let him off as long as he apologizes!”

Xu Zhengyang almost cussed him out in front of his parents, but Xu Jiaojiao was one step ahead of him. Her tone was perfectly even. “Why should my brother apologize? He didn’t do anything wrong.”

“Quiet, child. The adults are talking!” Mrs. Lu frowned and mocked her. “I had no idea you had such a sharp tongue! Your brother was the one who started a fight, and yet you deny the facts?”

Tian Fanghua and Xu Zhiming had already tolerated their taunts and insults for more than half an hour. Since the Lu family’s elders had helped them a lot in the past, the two of them endured the Lu family’s sarcasm. Once Zou Lan started taunting their children in front of them, though, the Xu couple finally ran out of patience.

“This is my home. My daughter can speak whenever she wants. Besides, if your son didn’t mess up first, my son wouldn’t have hit him for no reason,” Tian Fanghua said calmly. She did not care if they mocked her, but she would let them say anything about her children. No matter what her children did, outsiders had no right to lecture them.

“What are you saying? What do you mean, my son messed up? Lu Zhuo had something urgent he had to deal with at that time, but he never said that he wouldn’t go through with the marriage later!” Zou Lan became more and more agitated as she spoke. In the end, she was practically shouting, “Your daughter is even worse! She dragged a pretty boy out of nowhere and got married in the hotel. You were clearly out to humiliate us in public! We deserve an explanation!”

“H-How dare you blame us instead!” Tian Fanghua was gentle by nature, and she had never gotten into a screaming match with anyone in her life. Naturally, she stood no chance against the aggressive Zou Lan.

“Since you brought it up, let’s talk about that day. if your precious son hadn’t left me at the altar, would 1 have to marry someone else?” Xu Jiaojiao saw that her mother was too angry to speak, so she immediately took a step forward. Her voice was not loud, but it was powerful and resounding.

“My brother hit Lu Zhuo because he abandoned me in front of all the guests and humiliated our entire family. If you want my brother to apologize today, sure. But Lu Zhuo has to publicly apologize to my parents and me first..”
