Chapter 639 The consequences of talking too much
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He wished he could return those two slaps to Nie Yao in his place of his precious daughter. However, with a strong wife and Master Li Jiu by his side, he could only calm himself down, no matter how angry he was...
"I think Nie Jinxi deserved those two slaps. How dare she say such things to Nie Yao? It seems she forgot that Nie Yao is not only a member of the Nie family, but also Master Li Jiu's fiancée!"
Cui Zhen, the wife of the second son of the Nie family, could not help but sneer and said, seeing that her husband was silent, she glanced at him and raised an eyebrow and asked, "Guanglin, don't you think so?"
Nie Guanglin didn't dare to act too strangely, so he could only grit his teeth and whisper, "You shouldn't slap someone in public like that. We're all members of the Nie family, so why can Nie Yao treat Jin Xi like this?"
"This is the Li family, not the Nie family. How could Nie Jinxi forget this is Li Garden when she was spouting nonsense?" Cui Zhen snorted coldly and said unhappily, "Just because the Nie family loves her doesn't mean the Li family has to do the same. I think she deserves it!"
Nie Guanglin didn't want to say anything more to his wife. He could only stare at his daughter, wishing he could go forward and help her leave.
Li Jinxing also glanced at Nie Guanglin thoughtfully, with a sneer on his lips. He turned his gaze back to Nie Yao and Nie Jinxi, and sighed in his heart, his Yaoyao, fought beautifully!
"Nie Yao, you dare--" Nie Jinxi was slapped twice in a row by Nie Yao. She finally managed to steady herself. Her ears were buzzing and she even tasted blood in her mouth. She didn't know if she was bleeding from being slapped by her. She stared at Nie Yao with wide eyes in disbelief.
"If you dare to do this to me, I will tell Grandpa—"
Both sides of her cheeks were swollen, and she didn't even know how to cover her face with her hands. She just felt a burning pain all over her body, and her speech became slurred.
Nie Yao looked coldly at Nie Jinxi, who was being slapped so hard, and said mercilessly, "Nie Jinxi, go ahead and tell whoever you want. I dared to slap you in front of everyone today just to tell you what happens when you talk too much!"
"You—you—" Nie Jinxi was so angry that tears were already welling up in her eyes, and they fell down in big drops. "You did something shameless, and you blame me. You are such a rude woman. You have no right to return to the Nie family..."
The onlookers couldn't help but whisper among themselves. Some felt that Nie Yao's two slaps were indeed a bit harsh, while others laughed at the joke and even whispered, "Look, the Nie family's children are making a fuss. It's really a joke..."
"Yes, this is the Nie family's upbringing. Today I finally got to see it. Nie Jinxi was just playing the victim, but I think this Nie Yao is just so-so. She's no wonder she was raised outside..."
"Who says it's not? And did you hear that? Nie Jinxi said her sister is pregnant, so that's why she's engaged to Master Li Jiu. I think there's always smoke without fire..."
"It's not impossible to borrow a son to ascend to the throne..."
These low voices of discussion came from all directions, making Yu Wanqing so angry that she wanted to go up and argue with them.
Li Jinxing's face darkened as well. He ignored the comments and walked straight to Nie Yao. He spoke calmly to Nie Jinxi, who was covering her face and complaining, "Nie Jinxi, before, you were trying to hinder my fiancée at the Nie family. My fiancée was so generous that she didn't argue with you and even agreed to let you and the Nie family come to the engagement party. Now, this is how you repay her?"
