Chapter 535 Bullying a Weak Woman
Hu Xin'er scoffed, "How ridiculous! You saved his life? I think you were actually hoping for his death!"
Master Du retorted, "If I hadn't invited the master of mechanical devices, he would have been locked in the tunnel. If I hadn't called the clinic open that night, how would he have had a chance to recover? I saved his life, so naturally I can take it away!"
He felt that there was nothing wrong with his logic at all.
But this self-righteous look was extremely shameless in Hu Xiner's eyes.
She immediately said sharply: "You dug the tunnel and looked for a doctor because you wanted to save your daughter!"
Master Du stiffened his neck and said, "I dote on my own daughter, what's wrong with that? Do you expect me to watch her die? But you, the Lu family, have raised a beast in human form, and you still have the nerve to talk nonsense here? Get them out now, and don't disturb the young lady's rest."
Of course Hu Xiner couldn't leave.
She knew that Mr. Du was extremely fed up with their family. If they were kicked out today, not only would Yun Jue's illness not receive timely treatment, but there would also be endless troubles in the future.
But at this time, the Lu family was completely unable to fight back!
Mu Qing has been seriously injured by Master Du. If they cannot resolve the dispute with the Du family, they may have to flee again.
However, she had the help of Jiang Yao and others during her last escape, but this time she was the only weak pregnant woman left to struggle. Not only did she have to face the pursuit of the Du family, but she also had to be on guard against Liu Se and the prince at all times.
If you are not careful, your family will be destroyed!
At such a critical moment, her mind was calmer than ever before. Almost as soon as Mr. Du finished speaking, she burst into laughter.
Master Du said with a fierce face: "What are you laughing at? Stop acting crazy and stupid."
Hu Xin'er stood in front of Mu Qing and the others, looking him in the eye without fear. "I laugh at the Du family, known for their chivalry, for being nothing but despicable and shameless. I laugh at the Du family's century-long reputation being destroyed by you alone."
"You!" What Mr. Du is most proud of is his family's background. This confidence is also one of the reasons why he can sit firmly in the top position in Qingzhou.
At this moment, he was being mocked by this little girl in front of his old friends. How could he swallow this?
He raised his palm as big as a palm fan high up, as if he couldn't control himself and was about to hit Hu Xiner.
Hu Xiner gritted her teeth, but raised her face stubbornly, waiting nervously for Master Du's reaction.
She knew that the man in front of her was very impatient. If she continued to argue with him, he would definitely throw them out because of his impatience.
Therefore, she deliberately used provocation in order to prolong the battle and give herself time to persuade Mr. Du.
However, this method also carries a great risk. If a rude man like Master Du, who doesn't follow any reason at all, hits her in a fit of rage...
Well, her injury and fainting were secondary. If she had a miscarriage and died here, then it would be really over!
Fortunately, although Mr. Du has a reckless personality, he does have a chivalrous heart.
He looked at her eight-month-old belly and couldn't bring himself to do it. He just held back his anger and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat that brat Lu Yunjue to death on the spot!"
"Ahem!" Although Doctor He and Mr. Du have been friends for many years, he couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
After knowing each other for so many years, he knew that his old friend was a man who loved his daughter dearly and was extremely impulsive when encountering things.
He also knew Miss Du's personality, so he believed what Hu Xiner said and felt that Mr. Du's behavior was indeed not very kind.
He coughed lightly and held Master Du's hand: "Madam, why are you slandering the Du family like this?"
Hu Xiner raised her eyebrows, the opportunity has come!
She immediately said, "I'm not slandering you, I'm stating the facts. Back then, Yun Jue's face was damaged, and he only dared to show himself with a mask. But Miss Du insisted on taking advantage of his illness to remove the mask, making him a laughing stock. This is one of the reasons!"
"Yun Jue is recuperating at home, having already shown his indifference towards Miss Du. Yet, Miss Du climbed over our wall, causing our entire family immense distress. This is the second reason!"
"Forcing the Lu family to accept the betrothal gift, this is the third!"
Having said that, Hu Xiner paused and glanced around.
Once these three things were pointed out, the Du family lost their previous arrogance and domineering attitude. The disciples all turned their heads away, not daring to meet her gaze.
They all knew that Miss Du was really capable of doing such a thing.
Moreover, Miss Du never hides anything when doing these things. For example, when she took off Lu Yunjue's mask, many people were witnesses.
Ask yourself, if they were in Lu Yunjue's situation
"Oh, it seems that you also know what kind of person your young lady is." Hu Xiner saw that they all showed guilty consciences, and laughed out of anger.
Doctor He looked at Master Du meaningfully: "I've said it before, you can't always spoil Xiaoqin."
Mr. Du felt very embarrassed, but he didn't want to hear others say bad things about his daughter, so he stubbornly retorted: "He's a grown man, why should he care about these things?"
The disciples had always prided themselves on being heroes and were reluctant to admit they were aiding and abetting the evil. Someone whispered, "Young lady has flirted with many men in the past, but none as pretentious as him..."
"That's right, a grown man is thrown into his arms, what's there to be pretentious about? He's not a little girl..."
Seeing that Master Du and his disciples were already feeling somewhat guilty, Hu Xiner knew that continuing to confront them would only arouse their rebellious psychology, so she slowed down.
"Life is so difficult. Faced with Miss Du's entanglement, our Lu family originally didn't want to get involved. We always thought that if we endured it, it would pass..."
She turned her head and looked at the injured Mu Qing. Tears welled up in her eyes as she choked out, "Our Lu family is new to Qingzhou. My mother is seriously ill and has been in a coma for years. My husband and brother-in-law both have chronic illnesses. I'm the only one left to support the family... How could we dare to go against your Du family?"
To deal with Zhou Cheng and that kind of villain, beating them up is the most direct solution.
But when you meet someone like Mr. Du, tears are the best weapon.
When she cried, Mr. Du's eyes became weak.
The hand he had just raised couldn't help but tremble slightly. It was this hand that almost hit an eight-month pregnant woman.
Moreover, Hu Xin'er has no martial arts skills at all.
How is his behavior different from that of the evil villains who bully the weak that he hates the most?
The disciples either looked up at the sky, or looked down at the ground, or stood there like quails, their faces flushed with shame, and they dared not to argue anymore.
Doctor He said quietly, "Alas...bullying a weak woman..."
The room was completely silent, with only the sound of Hu Xiner sobbing.
