Xiao Yu was speechless. He didn't know where Chu Tianjiao got her confidence from.
Even though he already has four stunningly beautiful wives, each with a different style and charm... Xiao Yu felt that he must have saved the galaxy in his past life to be able to have four wives at the same time: Jin Mulan, Shen Youyu, Liu Aoshuang, and Murong Xian!
As for Chu Tianjiao, although she is quite pretty, she is not quite up to par with the four ladies!
"Pu Xin Nu!"
Xiao Yu muttered a complaint and prepared to leave again.
"Xiao Yu, you stop right there!"
Chu Tianjiao didn't hear what Xiao Yu said, but thinking about his younger brother being expelled from the martial arts academy, he wished he could tear Xiao Yu to pieces.
"What's up?"
Xiao Yu raised an eyebrow, his eyes already showing anger.
"snort!"
Seeing that Xiao Yu was still pretending, Chu Tianjiao snorted coldly and cursed, "I underestimated you, you fool. I didn't expect you to be such a despicable person. In order to be with me, you actually used despicable means to get my brother expelled from the Martial Academy! Little do you know, the more you do this, the more I hate you!"
"Your brother was expelled because he was a good-for-nothing who didn't deserve to be in the martial arts academy."
Xiao Yu retorted without holding back.
"What did you say?"
Chu Tianjiao's eyes widened. If looks could kill, she would have torn Xiao Yu to pieces.
Isn't that so?
Xiao Yu sneered. He knew that Chu Tianjiao was not only a green tea bitch, but also a Voldemort. So he said without any mercy, "Back then, your brother was not qualified to enter the Martial Academy at all. It was my Xiao Royal Mansion that used its connections to send him into the Martial Academy... Who knew that three years have passed and your brother is still only a seventh-grade martial artist at the minor completion stage!"
"With this kind of progress, what is it if not utter waste?!"
These words directly angered Chu Tianjiao, causing her face to flush red. She was so angry that her breathing became rapid, and her proud chest heaved and trembled.
The reason she was so angry was because what Xiao Yu said was true... Chu Tianyou's aptitude was indeed very poor!
"Xiao Yu, you've gone too far!"
Chu Tianjiao could no longer hold back and threw a punch.
"snort."
Xiao Yu snorted coldly and easily dodged the punch.
"How is that possible?"
Chu Tianjiao was taken aback, remembering that Chu Tianyou had said Xiao Yu might be a sixth-rank martial artist. Her eyebrows furrowed tightly, and she said coldly, "I want to see if you, you fool, are a sixth-rank martial artist."
Gathering his inner strength, Chu Tianjiao was no longer careless this time. He threw a punch at top speed, ready to teach Xiao Yu a lesson.
Bai Can, though silent, stood up and stared coldly at Xiao Yu.
Thinking of the 50,000 taels of silver that Xiao Yu had swindled from him yesterday, and that IOU, he wished he could tear Xiao Yu to pieces!
"I can't kill you now, but it wouldn't be bad to let Tianjiao teach you a lesson!" Bai Can thought to himself.
Who knew what would happen next?
Xiao Yu simply dodged Chu Tianjiao's all-out punch with a slight movement.
Then, before Chu Tianjiao could react, Xiao Yu slapped him across the face.
"Smack!"
The slap was swift and brutal. Before Chu Tianjiao could recover from his missed punch, he had already received a slap on the face.
A red handprint instantly appeared on that pretty face, and then half of her face swelled up.
"You dare hit me?"
Feeling the burning pain on his face, Chu Tianjiao had completely lost his mind and lunged forward to fight Xiao Yu to the death.
Meanwhile, several onlookers stood at the entrance of the private room.
They were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, some were elegant and charming, some were extremely wealthy, and some had a very strong presence... Clearly, they were all high-ranking officials and nobles.
"Chu Tianjiao, this ends here!"
Seeing so many people watching, Xiao Yu abandoned his intention to take action. He knew that after inheriting the throne of Prince Xiao, many eyes were watching him, and none of them wanted the Prince Xiao's Mansion to rise again.
"That's it? You wish!"
Chu Tianjiao thought Xiao Yu was afraid of her, so she gritted her teeth and said, "I was careless for a moment and that's why you hit me. I must get my revenge tenfold or a hundredfold!"
As he spoke, he was about to rush forward again and attack.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu suddenly exclaimed, "That year on the fifteenth of August, the moon was so round! I will never forget that expanse of snow-white!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Tianjiao froze on the spot, as if he had been frozen in place.
Her cheeks flushed as she stared at Xiao Yu, wishing she could skin this bastard alive and tear him to pieces!
Because the day she proposed to consummate her marriage with Xiao Yu was three years ago, on the fifteenth of August... That bastard Xiao Yu is using this to blackmail her!
"Later, I admired the moon many more times, and the moon was still just as white, but none of them were as enchanting as the moon that year and that day," Xiao Yu continued.
These words made Chu Tianjiao blush even more; she had indeed had relations with Xiao Yu more than once.
But Bai Can must not know about these things!
"Tianjiao, what's wrong?"
Seeing Chu Tianjiao frozen there, though his eyes still held hatred, as if he wanted to tear Xiao Yu to pieces... Bai Can noticed that Chu Tianjiao's anger was mixed with shame, indignation, and panic.
Bai Can didn't know what had happened. He walked to Chu Tianjiao's side and said softly, "Your face is very red, Tianjiao, are you alright?"
"N-nothing..."
Chu Tianjiao shook his head guiltily and whispered, "He slapped me, and my face is burning. Brother Can, is my face red and swollen?"
"Um."
Bai Can nodded, feeling a little curious. Xiao Yu slapped Chu Tianjiao's right cheek, so why was her left cheek also as red as a monkey's bottom?
And what about the moon on the fifteenth of August... pure white... enchanting?
Why is this idiot saying such nonsensical things?
Many thoughts flashed through Bai Can's mind. He stood opposite Xiao Yu and said coldly, "Xiao Yu, you're a grown man, how dare you hit a woman? Today, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of Tianjiao!"
Regardless of the circumstances, Chu Tianjiao was his fiancée, and Bai Can had to win back his pride.
Moreover, he had just caught a glimpse of a very dignified old man walking past the doorway.
Although the old man was dressed in plain clothes, Bai Can recognized him at a glance; he was the current Grand Secretary.
Xiao Yu's father had always been at odds with the Grand Secretary when he was alive.
Now that the Xiao Prince's Mansion has fallen into decline, although His Majesty has allowed Xiao Yu to inherit the title of Prince Xiao, the chances of it rising again are slim... If I were to fight Xiao Yu here and the Grand Secretary were to witness it, there would be plenty of room for maneuver.
"You are not worthy to fight me."
Xiao Yu's gaze swept over Bai Can, and he glanced at the openwork gold crown on Bai Can's head. He wondered to himself, "He's clearly not wearing a hat, so why does it look like he's wearing a green hat when I look at him?!"
