Chapter 3: Blocking Three Scumbag Brothers!

Xia Mian looked up in surprise and was met with a pair of deep, dark eyes, handsome features, a smooth jawline, and a noble and aloof temperament.

It's Fu Yanshen!

What is he doing here?

The man forcefully took the suitcase from her hands, concealing the fleeting pity in his eyes, and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Get in the car!"

A Rolls-Royce extended wheelbase drove into the storm with its heater on, narrowly missing a black Mercedes.

Inside the car, Xia Qingfeng raised an eyebrow and asked Xia Qinglin, "Big brother, are there even top-tier guests attending the banquet?"

Xia Qinglin, on the other end of the video call, was surprised. "Top-tier guests? No! They're all familiar guests. What's wrong?"

Xia Qingfeng explained, "A black extended Rolls-Royce just drove by the door. I thought it was one of our guests! Looks like I was overthinking it."

Xia Qingfeng hung up the phone and got out of the car.

Meanwhile, inside the extended Rolls-Royce.

Xia Mian was using a thin blanket to wipe Madam Fu's wet hair and clothes.

Madam Fu was clearly in a good mood. She smiled very kindly and said, "I'm fine. Come on, let Grandma dry your hair."

"Grandma, I can wipe it myself." Xia Mian didn't dare to let Madam Fu help her. Seeing that the other woman had indeed wiped it almost clean, she quickly wiped it herself as well.

Fu Yanshen drove the Rolls-Royce himself, his gaze fixed on the torrential rain outside the window. The man, who was usually unfazed by any collapse of Mount Tai, remained silent, his eyes fixed on the road ahead with a gloomy expression.

But his fingertips gripping the steering wheel were trembling, his heart was as wet as the torrential rain, and he felt like a water ghost crawling out of hell, wanting nothing more than to hold her tightly.

In this life, he will protect her! He will cling to her! He will never let go!

"Mianmian!"

Madam Fu gently held Xia Mian's hand, "Our Fu family, although not extremely wealthy, can still ensure you have enough to eat and wear. Just settle down here and feel free to ask Grandma if you need anything."

Xia Mian thought to herself, "It's not just being extremely rich and noble, it's being extremely rich and noble!"

With tears in her eyes, she looked at Old Madam Fu and instinctively rested her head on the old lady's shoulder. "Grandma, thank you."

Madam Fu affectionately called her Mianmian... her tone was full of love.

Since my mother fell into a coma and was admitted to the nursing home, no one has ever called her so gently.

The Rolls-Royce came to a smooth stop in the garage. Fu Yanshen got out of the car first, his large, well-defined hands gripping the umbrella handle.

The sleeves of his black shirt were rolled up, revealing a strong and powerful forearm that inexplicably exuded a sense of strength.

He helped Madam Fu out of the car, and then came over to take Xia Mian's hand.

His large, hot hand gripped her slender wrist without warning, but released her immediately and discreetly after she got out of the car.

Raindrops pattered against the umbrella.

The tall man politely and gentlemanly kept a distance of about 5 centimeters from her.

Even so.

She could still almost feel the man's burning body temperature and the intense heat emanating from his body.

It was as if the cold rain around him had been warmed up by him.

His presence is too strong!

Xia Mian walked forward stiffly, her heart pounding.

Finally, the three of them arrived at the living room.

The butler, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately brought over a towel and said respectfully, "Young Master, Madam, the hot water is ready. Please warm yourselves up."

Before returning to her room, Madam Fu patted Xia Mian's hand gently, saying with concern, "Since you're here, make the best of it. Go take a bath."

The servants dared not be negligent in the slightest and led Xia Mian to the second floor.

The moment Xia Mian pushed open the door, her eyes widened in shock. This room was almost a one-to-one replica of her bedroom in the Xia family home, and even the cabinet full of LABUBU products was there!

The decor is princess-style, and even the lace bedding on the bed is exactly the same!

After taking a nice hot shower, Xia Mian opened her wardrobe, which was almost entirely filled with new women's clothing, with styles for all four seasons.

Not only that, there are also many jewelry pieces and high-end skincare products.

She chose a conservative set of casual loungewear before drying her hair.

After tying her long, seaweed-like hair into a simple ponytail, Xia Mian was about to go downstairs when her phone rang.

It was Xia Qingfeng, the third brother, calling. "Xia Mian, you've really grown up! You've even learned to run away from home!"

"I'm giving you one chance now. Get back here right now! Otherwise, never call me brother again for the rest of your life!"

Xia Mian calmly held her phone and scoffed, "Sorry, brother, I won't be going back."

"You really aren't going back?" Xia Qingfeng's tone was harsh. "There's a limit to your jealousy. I know you're jealous because Lian'er is staying at our house! You're vying for my affection, but Lian'er is so kind, why are you arguing with her?"

"I wasn't jealous, and I wasn't vying for favor." Xia Mian's tone remained cold, though her heart ached terribly.

A bolt of lightning, accompanied by thunder, tore a huge hole in the sky like a serpent!

She gazed at the lightning bolt, just like her life; once a wound has been opened, there's no need to mend it.

"Don't call me again. I'll never go back."

Before Xia Qingfeng could continue her tirade, she had already hung up the phone.

Brothers! Lu Lian'er! Are you ready to face my revenge in this lifetime?

...

The Xia family villa was brightly lit.

The guests had all left, and after the excitement, the place was a mess.

The servants were busy tidying up the banquet hall.

Xia Qingfeng stared in shock at his phone, which had just been hung up on. "Has Xia Mian gone mad? How dare she hang up on me?"

Lu Lian'er looked at him expectantly, "Third Brother, have you found out what college Xia Mian is going to apply for?"

"Lian'er, don't worry, I'll call again!" Xia Qingfeng suddenly remembered the purpose of his call only after Lu Lian'er reminded him.

He dialed again, but couldn't get through. "The number you dialed is currently busy..."

"Damn it! Xia Mian blocked me."

“Third Brother, you only called her because you care about her. It’s one thing if she doesn’t answer, but she even blocked you.” Lu Lian’er took Xia Qingfeng’s arm, her red lips slightly pouting. “You’re about to go to university, and you’re still so willful.”

"Lian'er is right. I'll have my brother call her now. I don't believe she won't answer." Xia Qingfeng finished speaking and rushed upstairs in three steps.

Lu Lian'er followed behind him, and curled her lips as she watched his impatient back.

Xia Mian, you're asking for trouble! From now on, the Xia family's daughter can only be me. You're only fit to farm and feed pigs!

That night, the Xia family villa was destined to be anything but peaceful.

The three Xia brothers discovered that Xia Mian had blocked them all.

I can't get through on the phone, I don't reply to WeChat messages, and I don't reply to emails.

Xia Qinglin was too drunk to hold his liquor and had already passed out.

Even when angry, Xia Qingyang remained icy cold, his eyes filled with malice. "She should be locked up, locked in the basement, never to see the light of day again! Punish her severely!"

The hot-tempered Xia Qingfeng was furious. "She'll definitely be begging us to come back on our knees tomorrow! We're not going to let her come back! In less than three days, she'll be crying and making a scene again! She can't stand the hardship of farming!"

Lu Lian'er sobbed, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have stayed in my sister's room. She must be angry because she has to stay in the servants' room, so she wanted to attract my brothers' attention."

"Lian'er, be good, don't cry... It has nothing to do with you, it's Xia Mian who's too petty!" Xia Qingfeng immediately hugged her and comforted her.

"Check out that Fu family tomorrow and see where she actually lives." Xia Qingyang said coldly. The two brothers then personally escorted Lu Lian'er back to her room before parting ways.
