"My dignity is always on my face, but yours will soon be gone."
Wen Xi stood where he was, showing no intention of leaving.
Nangong Wenli frowned, "What do you mean by that? Why are you so rude at such a young age?"
Wen Xiyun said calmly, "Compared to your son and daughter, I shouldn't be too polite."
Nangong Wenli's face turned cold, "Butler Chen, please show the guests away!"
Butler Chen moved slightly and slowly.
Wen Xi laughed, "I've never seen such a shameless person. He's not from the same family, but he acts like the master. I'm afraid he wants to take over my family."
As soon as these words were spoken, Nangong Wenli's expression changed drastically. She looked at Wen Xi with a meaningful look, and a dark light flashed in her eyes.
"Butler Chen, wait a minute!"
Nangong Jue came over with Miaotong and Miaoshu, and there was a rare trace of anger on his gentle face.
"I want to see who is driving away the distinguished guests I invited."
Nangong Jue stood beside Wen Xi, showing a protective attitude, and apologized, "Wen Xi, I'm really sorry. You came all the way here, but you didn't expect to be treated like this. It's my Nangong family's fault for not being considerate of our guests."
"You don't have to apologize for others. It's not you who should apologize."
Wen Xi shook his head and looked at Nangong Wenli and the others with a smile.
Xiao Shaoyan said provocatively, "That's right, the birthday party of the Nangong family head was made to look like it was theirs. People who didn't know would think that the person in charge of the Nangong family was your aunt, Nangong Jue."
Nangong Jue said expressionlessly, "Aunt, your behavior will make Grandpa unhappy, especially Wen Xi, who is the distinguished guest I specially invited. If she becomes hostile to us because of this, don't blame Grandpa for expelling you from the mountain!"
Many guests around were whispering.
Nangong Wenli was embarrassed. "Ajue, what are you saying? I didn't know she was invited by you, so I spoke a little rashly. Besides, we are blood relatives. How can you speak to your aunt like that?"
Nangong Chi said unhappily, "That's right, Nangong Jue, you still have no respect for elders. The invitation doesn't even have the name of the invitee. How can I know if it's real or fake? I'm just blaming you for not writing it clearly."
Miao Tong put her hands on her hips to protect her master. "These are all posts written by the master himself. Can't you see the handwriting on them?"
Nangong Jue raised his lips and smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "The younger generation does not understand, how can the elders not understand? What Aunt said is actually my fault. When Grandpa comes, I will naturally tell him one by one and let him judge."
Nangong Wenli quickly said, "There's no blaming anyone for right or wrong. Achi, you were rude first. Apologize to Miss Wen quickly."
Nangong Chi pointed at his nose in disbelief, "You want me to apologize?"
"quick!"
Nangong Chi was reluctant, but due to Nangong Wenli's murderous gaze, he could only suppress his anger and said quickly and perfunctorily, "I'm sorry, okay."
Wen Xi said lazily, "The voice was too soft, I didn't hear it!"
Nangong Chi glared, "Are you looking for trouble?"
"Everyone can see who was the first to start trouble when they walked in."
Wen Xi spread his hands, and the guests nearby pointed at Nangong Chi.
"Achi, hurry up!"
Nangong Wenli said sternly that she regretted interfering in the younger generation's affairs. It was because she spoiled her son and he had a bad temper.
Nangong Chi's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry!"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Nangong Chi's eyes were fierce. He deliberately moved closer to Wen Xi, tripped, and fell towards Wen Xi with a malicious smile on his lips, his head pointing at Wen Xi's chest.
Wen Xi sneered, dodged quickly, and slapped him hard in the face in the direction he fell.
Bang!
There was a loud slap, and Nangong Chi fell to the ground again due to inertia. When he got up, the red and swollen slap marks on his face were hard to ignore.
"You damn woman, how dare you hit me?"
Nangong Chi's eyes were filled with cruelty and gloom, and he was about to pounce on Wen Xi ferociously, but was stopped by Xiao Shaoyan and Nangong Jue.
"You threw yourself at my slap, and you blame me?"
Wen Xi raised his hand and challenged him with a smile, "A fool like you, so what if I beat you up every time I see you? If no one teaches you, then I will teach you."
Nangong Yue said anxiously, "Brother Shaoyan, please let my brother go quickly."
Nangong Chi was so angry that he almost lost his mind, "Let me go, I want to teach this little girl a lesson!"
Xiao Shaoyan sneered, "Only scumbags hit women. You deserve to be beaten. If you dare to have evil thoughts about Wen Xi again, I will not be polite to you."
Nangong Wenli was very annoyed. She moved her drooping fingers slightly, and something came out from under Wen Xi's feet, ready to grab Wen Xi's ankles.
The crutch hit the ground hard, and an invisible aftermath came, causing the things at his feet to collapse instantly.
"What are you all doing here? Are you trying to ruin my birthday party?"
A majestic and deep voice sounded, and everyone looked at the person respectfully.
Nangong Wenli's expression changed slightly, and she clenched her fists behind her back.
A glimmer of light flashed across Wen Xi's eyes as he saw Nangong Wen Zheng slowly approaching, supporting an old man with silver hair and the aura of a superior.
Those cloudy eyes were filled with sharp light. After just a glance, Nangong Chi didn't dare to act rashly. He quickly stood back beside Nangong Wenli, his expression slightly embarrassed.
"Master Nangong!"
The nearby guests all called out politely.
"Okay, everyone, please do as you please. Some people said they were going to hold a birthday party for me, but I didn't expect they were specifically looking for me to cause a quarrel. It's really embarrassing."
Nangong Jing snorted coldly. When his gaze shifted to Wen Xi, he was stunned at first, and then looked at Wen Xi's face carefully.
"Wen Zheng, help me over there quickly."
Nangong Jing urged.
Nangong Wen Zheng immediately supported him and walked in front of Wen Xi. The dignified elder seemed to be at a loss at this moment. He opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.
"Dad, do you know Wen Xi?"
Nangong Wen Zheng also noticed something and asked in confusion.
"Wen Xi?"
Nangong Jing murmured Wen Xi's name, seeming unsure.
Wen Xi smiled and raised her lips and said, "Grandpa Nangong, long time no see."
When he heard the words "Grandpa Nangong", Nangong Jing's pupils suddenly shrank, his eye sockets turned red, and he looked at her with tears in his eyes.
He said excitedly, "It's you, it's really you!"
Wen Xi said, "Well, I didn't expect that Nangong Jue is your grandson."
Nangong Jue asked in surprise, "Grandpa hasn't come down the mountain for many years. Wen Xi, how did you know my grandfather?"
Nangong Wenzheng was also very curious, "Yes, yes, Dad, if you had told us earlier that you knew Wen Xi, we would have invited her to be our guest a long time ago."
