Chapter 118 You can donate your brain if you don't need it, but don't make a fool of yourself in front of me.
All eyes turned to Xia Yuhuan.
If Xia Yuhuan had any body hair, she could instantly give everyone a show of her hair standing on end.
Being stared at by so many people at first glance is really stressful.
Fortunately, she was mentally strong and quickly relaxed, her expression calm and a smile playing on her lips.
"Brother and sister-in-law, you're here! Come and sit down, we've been waiting for you." Chi Shaoning greeted Chi Shaokang with a smile as he stood up.
"Sister-in-law, you've finally arrived! I've been waiting for you for so long." Li Cuiwei also got up and took Zhang Xianya's hand.
Zhang Xianya responded and turned to Xia Yuhuan, whispering, "Go find a place to sit, take care of yourself, remember what Mom told you, don't let yourself be bullied."
During the day, Zhang Xianya told Xia Yuhuan that she should be as comfortable as possible at the family banquet and not feel too pressured. She also told her that if anyone bullied her, she could do whatever she wanted as long as she didn't suffer any injustice.
Anyway, even if the sky falls, they'll hold it up for her; it definitely won't hit her.
Xia Yuhuan was overjoyed to hear this.
Isn't this tantamount to giving her an imperial decree that allows her to cause all sorts of trouble?
Then what is there for her to be afraid of?
Although she doesn't like to cause trouble, she is definitely not afraid of trouble either, so Xia Yuhuan is very relaxed right now.
She knew that the pressure level would be at its peak if Chi Shaokang and Zhang Xianya sat at that table.
She doesn't want to stay here and be abused.
Xia Yuhuan found a secluded corner to sit down and waited for the meal to be served, but her gaze swept across the room, taking in the Chi family members who had come to attend the banquet.
Her goal for today was clear: to carefully observe everyone in the Chi family, look for suspicious individuals, get a free meal, and leave when it was time to leave.
However, she had only been sitting down for a short time when someone came to sit next to her.
"Sister-in-law, why didn't you come to visit me when you arrived?" Chi Wenhong appeared in front of Xia Yuhuan and asked with a grin.
Xia Yuhuan: "I just arrived and sat down."
She didn't particularly like Chi Wenhong.
Chi Zhenghao's younger sister is arrogant and domineering, and she doesn't want to provoke her. Who knows if she might accidentally anger her?
Chi Wenhong is only twelve years old, and if she starts crying, she won't be able to soothe her. She doesn't want to cause such trouble.
"Sister-in-law, come on, I'll take you to our table. We have lots of fruit and snacks there, and it's more lively with more people. It's much better than you sitting here all alone."
"Mom gave me a mission: to take good care of you."
Chi Wenhong was too enthusiastic, and Xia Yuhuan couldn't refuse, so she could only be pulled aside by her.
Before the two even reached their destination, a ball was thrown directly at Xia Yuhuan.
Xia Yuhuan narrowed her eyes slightly, instinctively feeling that the ball was aimed at her.
She instinctively tried to dodge, but Chi Wenhong grabbed her and prevented her from moving.
Xia Yuhuan immediately realized that Chi Wenhong was also involved in the flying ball.
Realizing this, Xia Yuhuan did not hesitate at all, directly shaking off Chi Wenhong's hand and stepping aside.
The ball flew past the spot where Xia Yuhuan had just been standing and continued flying forward.
Finally, a cry of pain came from inside the house.
I wonder which unlucky person that ball hit.
Chi Wenhong lost her balance and fell to the ground when Xia Yuhuan shook her off.
Seeing that the ball didn't hit Xia Yuhuan but instead flew towards the hall, his heart skipped a beat.
I hope it doesn't hit any elders.
That would be the end of us.
Xia Yuhuan looked down at the fear in her eyes and sneered, "Now you're scared? Where were you before?"
"You tried to hit me with a ball? How could you even think of that!"
"Aren't you afraid of smashing me and making me stupid? You can't afford to pay for it."
"What did I do to you that I deserved you to go to such lengths to harm me?"
Chi Wenhong blushed deeply because of Xia Yuhuan's words.
She was already twelve years old, a very sensible age, so naturally she could understand what Xia Yuhuan was saying.
Just as Chi Wenhong was biting her lip, unsure how to respond, Chi Zhenghao walked out of the house with a ball in his hand and a cold expression.
"Who was playing ball outside and accidentally threw it inside?" Chi Zhenghao asked coldly.
When Chi Wenhong saw that it was Chi Zhenghao who came out, she burst into tears.
Hearing the crying, Chi Zhenghao strode over.
"Xiao Hong, why are you sitting on the ground? Get up quickly."
Chi Zhenghao reached out to pull Chi Wenhong, but Chi Wenhong started sobbing and complaining.
“Brother, it was my sister-in-law who did it. I kindly invited her to play with me, but she pushed me down and threw the ball into the house. Brother, does my sister-in-law not like me?” Chi Wenhong asked, crying.
Upon hearing this, Chi Zhenghao's gaze fell on Xia Yuhuan, who stood to the side with her arms crossed, watching the scene as if it were none of her business.
"Xia Yuhuan, you've really grown up, actually arguing with a child?"
"I think you're pretty capable. You can donate your brain if you don't want it, but don't make a fool of yourself in front of me." Faced with Chi Zhenghao's questioning, Xia Yuhuan rolled her eyes and said irritably.
Upon hearing this, Chi Zhenghao frowned immediately.
Just as he was about to retort, he suddenly remembered his younger sister's personality and immediately held back.
He looked at Chi Wenhong and asked her in a deep voice, "Xiaohong, what is the truth? Tell me clearly. If you dare to lie, I'll beat you up."
Upon hearing this, Chi Wenhong shrank her shoulders, opened her mouth, and her face clearly showed signs of guilt.
Chi Jung-ho had been blinded by concern and subconsciously believed his sister.
Seeing her like this now, how could she not understand?
He helped Chi Wenhong up and then apologized to Xia Yuhuan.
"I'm sorry, I didn't understand the truth of the matter just now and misunderstood you. I apologize, I'm sorry."
"My younger sister is spoiled by the family and sometimes acts up. Please forgive her." Chi Zhenghao apologized earnestly.
Xia Yuhuan scoffed: "If you know she's spoiled, then you should discipline her properly. Your family didn't raise her well, so why should others forgive her when she goes out? Who owes your family anything? Why should they always cater to you and forgive you?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Zhenghao's face turned ashen.
Unfortunately, Xia Yuhuan was right, and he couldn't even refute her.
Upon hearing Xia Yuhuan's words, Chi Wenhong jumped up and pointed at Xia Yuhuan in rebuttal.
"You worthless woman, born of a mother but raised without one, what right do you have to talk to me like that? You..."
These words made Chi Zhenghao's pupils shrink, and he shouted, "Wen Hong, shut up, you..."
"Smack..."
A crisp sound interrupted Chi Zhenghao's words and shocked Chi Wenhong, who stared wide-eyed.
But Xia Yuhuan stepped forward and slapped Chi Zhenghao hard across the face.
Chi Zhenghao was knocked to the side by the blow, his face burning with pain.
He didn't even understand why Xia Yuhuan suddenly slapped him.
Chi Zhenghao covered his face and slowly turned to look at Xia Yuhuan, his eyes cold, but filled with raging anger.
Chi Wenhong, who was standing to the side, also came to her senses from the shock and rushed forward to hit Xia Yuhuan.
"You wicked woman, how dare you hit my brother! I'll beat you to death, beat you to death..."
