Chapter 156 Anyone who touches her, I'll fight them to the death!

A cold sweat broke out on Xie Jinghuai's back, instantly soaking through his suit!

Qin Zhao had been his father's bodyguard when he was young, and he had witnessed firsthand how fierce and ruthless Qin Zhao was.

Jiang Shiyuan is just a weak woman, how could she withstand such a slap? Something bad is bound to happen!

Madam Xie covered her face, a sinister smile curling at the corner of her lips—she was a heart of a Buddha but a face of a demon!

Jiang Shiyuan's heart clenched suddenly; she wanted to dodge, but it was too late!

She closed her eyes tightly.

Snap!

The air condensed.

Qin Zhao's dark pupils widened as he saw Su Xi'er strike with lightning speed, grabbing his wrist and blocking Jiang Shiyuan's path like a sharp sword.

Everyone: "!"

The speed was too fast, almost instantaneous!

Qin Zhao had seen some of the top bodyguards in Beijing and even across the country. But none of them could match his speed!

What's more, she's a woman!

Jiang Shiyuan opened her eyes, and couldn't help but choke up, "Xi'er..."

"Waaah... Aunt Su... You're a superwoman!" Fu Yansi was so excited she almost cried.

Xie Jinghuai took a deep breath, and his clenched internal organs relaxed.

"A big, strong man beating a woman, Assistant Qin is indeed a hyena trained by Madam Xie, he's really capable."

Su Xier curled her lips into a wicked smile, exuding a chilling and murderous aura. "It's just a bodyguard, everyone has one, what's there to show off for?"

Qin Zhao gritted his teeth and tried to pull his hand out, but he couldn't move it for a moment!

The strength of men and women should be vastly different, but this little girl is so thin and weak that she is incredibly strong. She is practically the embodiment of Lin Daiyu uprooting the willow tree!

"Although I am President Shen's bodyguard, I will always be A Yuan's person."

Su Xier's eyes were red as if she had cried blood. She fiercely shook off Qin Zhao and said, "From now on, if anyone dares to touch A Yuan, I will risk my life to kill him!"

"Don't believe me? Try it and see!"

Qin Zhao was tall and strong, but he was almost shoved off balance by a little girl. Fortunately, he managed to regain his balance and it wasn't too embarrassing.

"You've completely turned the world upside down!"

Madam Xie trembled with anger, venting her pent-up resentment on Shen Zhantang, "Zhantang, you and Jinghuai grew up together, tell me honestly how your aunt has treated you?!"

Shen Zhantang's expression stiffened. She lowered her eyes and said truthfully, "I've always called you godmother in private. Your feelings for me... needless to say."

"Good, you do have a sense of righteousness!"

Madam Xie covered her swollen cheek and glared fiercely at Su Xier. "Since you still consider me your godmother and Ah Huai your best brother, you must teach this disrespectful and arrogant brat a lesson today!"

Otherwise, our twenty-year friendship will end here. From now on, we'll go our separate ways! And don't call me godmother anymore; I can't accept that!

Anxiety welled up in Xie Jinghuai's dark eyes. "Mom, I know you're resentful, but you shouldn't have dragged A-Tang into this. This has nothing to do with him!"

"That beast that Shen Zhantang raised! If he doesn't deal with it, who will?!"

Madam Xie's eyes were filled with resentment, turning bloodshot. She pointed to her still-painful face and said, "This is the first time in my fifty years of life that your mother has suffered such a humiliation! I am your biological mother, the person your father cherished his whole life, and the mistress of the Xie family!"

Are you just going to stand by and watch those two vile women humiliate your mother? Is this how you act as a filial son?!

Xie Jinghuai's thin lips parted slightly, his tangled emotions choking him.

The mother was wrong because she struck first.

But Jiang Shiyuan fought back, and right in front of him, her son, and with such ferocity. Was she right?

"Brother Jinghuai, Aunt Xie has really suffered too much humiliation this time!"

Lin Zhixin patted Madam Xie's heaving back, indignantly saying, "No matter what, it was all my sister's fault this time!"

Although Aunt Xie looks young, she's not exactly young anymore. Who will be responsible if she gets sick from all this?!

She either develops quietly and keeps quiet.

Every word he spoke was like a knife to the heart, stabbing Xie Jinghuai in the back.

The man's phoenix eyes gradually became clouded.

Just as he was pondering, Shen Zhantang brushed past him, walked up to Su Xier with a gloomy expression, hooked his long arm around the back of her neck, and ran his slender fingers through her hair.

Su Xier stared at the man's dark eyes and brows, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

On countless decadent nights, when they were entwined in bed, he would always do this: his sweaty fingers would either slip through her hair or between her fingers, surging and undulating as he held her hand tightly.

It was a dreamlike, addictive, and eternal illusion.

Just as Su Xier was distracted, Shen Zhantang suddenly glared at her with sharp eyes and grabbed the back of her head with his large hand.

He pressed her head down hard, as if she were drowning.

Su Xier was forced to bow to Madam Xie, tears of humiliation welling up in her eyes.

Shen Zhantang said in a low voice, "Godmother, it's my fault for not disciplining her properly. I apologize to you on her behalf. Please forgive her and don't hold it against her."

Madam Xie narrowed her eyes arrogantly and let out a cold snort.

Shen Zhantang was, after all, the heir of the Shen family. Since she was given a way out, she reluctantly accepted it.

However, her hatred for Jiang Shiyuan did not diminish in the slightest.

She will remember this slap forever, and one day she will get her revenge a thousand times over!

"Xi'er!"

Jiang Shiyuan's eyes were red with hatred. She rushed over and snatched Su Xier away, holding her in her arms with heartache. "No need to apologize. You did nothing wrong. What kind of apology is this!"

Su Xier, a woman who was usually so tough, turned into a soft cotton ball and a pool of water in her arms, her eyes gradually welling up with tears.

Jiang Shiyuan glared at Shen Zhantang with hatred, each word a sharp nail in her mouth, as if she wanted to nail him to the ground, "Shen Zhantang, I thought you would be different from others. I never expected... you are all birds of a feather!"

Do you think you can bully Xi'er so recklessly because of your power? You're only relying on…

"Ten yuan." Su Xi'er shook her head, her eyes red.

Jiang Shiyuan was indignant and helpless, and hesitated to speak.

Shen Zhantang's pupils contracted sharply, and his fingers, which were pressing down on Su Xier, trembled slightly.

A thin strand of hair was wrapped around his fingers and he gripped it tightly.

"Let's go."

Jiang Shiyuan had no intention of getting entangled with this group of monsters and demons any longer. He put one arm around Su Xier's slender waist and held Fu Yansi's hand tightly with the other, and walked away.

Seeing his wife and Fu Chenzhou's son so intimately connected, Xie Jinghuai felt a surge of resentment and anger welling up inside him, unable to utter a sound.

How long has it been since she held Tongtong's hand like this?

How long has it been since I last held Tongtong?

"Jiang Shiyuan, you are not allowed to leave!" Xie Jinghuai's tall figure flashed, blocking her way.

"Why?" Jiang Shiyuan's eyes remained expressionless.

"Tongtong is still in the emergency room, and her condition is unclear. As her mother, are you just going to ignore her and walk away like this?"

In his haste, Xie Jinghuai blurted out, "Even animals have maternal instincts, do you mean to..."

His voice abruptly stopped.

What followed was really unpleasant to hear.

"Xie Jinghuai, use all the harsh and vicious words you have to describe me."

Jiang Shiyuan didn't even want to look at him anymore. "But no matter what you say, it won't change my choice or decision."

"Sister, Brother Jinghuai is right, you really went too far this time!"

Lin Zhixin stood beside Xie Jinghuai with tears in her eyes. The two looked so well-matched, as if they were the parents of Tongtong. "Let the child experience the pain of losing his mother's love at such a young age, let the child be looked down upon and suffer all kinds of grievances. If you don't love Tongtong, why did you give birth to him?"

Is it merely to solidify her position as Mrs. Xie?!

"Why? Ask your brother Jinghuai."

Jiang Shiyuan glanced at her sideways, her eyes filled with cold disdain for her clumsy tricks. "He doesn't like wearing it, and he gets angry with me when I take birth control pills. Tongtong is the one he brought into this world, not me."
