He then jokingly explained that since he couldn't be with Xu Xiang, they should let their daughter stay with her instead, and Xu Xiang agreed.
What happened next, which is exactly what happened now, was the only thing he didn't expect: An Ruyu was so ruthless!
"You may know, but think about it. After you married into the Xu family, wasn't An Ruyu completely at your mercy? She's just a child now. What will you do when she grows up and you still want revenge?"
Mingyue continued to tempt An Chengmao, "The Xu family still has some dignity. How could they possibly disagree with your marriage to Xu Xiang? Do you really want to hide away for the rest of your life? Do you think you can rely on An Ruyu to support you in your old age?"
You can't even count on a dog, let alone on that ungrateful wretch An Ruyu!
An Chengmao suddenly realized what was going on and was convinced. "Then what do you think I should do?"
"Easy, we'll just cause a scene at the An family villa tonight."
Mingyue handed An Chengmao a business card, and before leaving, she leaned the door against the wall, saying, "Your door is of poor quality; you need to replace it."
An Chengmao's lips twitched: ...
Even if it's not good, it shouldn't be completely dismantled!
When An Ruyu got home from school, she heard Xu Xiang say that her aunt was not dead. She thought it was a joke, but she didn't expect to actually see Mingyue's figure. "Aunt."
"I've said it so many times, I'm not your aunt."
The moon seemed to be smiling, but An Ruyu felt as if she were being choked by an invisible force, her voice involuntarily filled with fear, "What...what are you going to do?"
"You're still a child; usually, a little discipline at this age is enough."
With a loud slap, the hand struck An Ruyu's face. An Ruyu instantly felt her left cheek go numb, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
The next second, Mingyue smiled and pinched An Ruyu's chin, forcing An Ruyu to look up at her, "Have you learned your lesson now?"
"Uh-huh!"
An Ruyu sobbed as she replied, "This person is simply insane!" An immense fear of Mingyue rose in her heart.
"Good girl."
After letting go of An Ruyu, Mingyue went straight back to her room.
When Mingyue came downstairs again, she was greeted by Xu Xiang's angry gaze and An Ruyu's pitiful appearance with tears streaming down her face.
"Mingyue, you absolutely cannot hit Ruyu! How is she supposed to face anyone tomorrow?"
"Then should I slap her again to make her symmetrical?" Mingyue stared at An Ruyu's other cheek with a troubled expression. "But it won't be symmetrical. Her left cheek is already swollen, and it's hard for her right cheek to swell up to the same height since the slaps were delivered at different times."
Xu Xiang nearly fainted from anger. "I'm asking why you hit a child! Do you need a reason to lay a hand on someone?!"
"No need."
If a person's gaze could kill, Mingyue would have died countless times from Xu Xiang's gaze.
Just as the two were facing off, Anhe brought Anchengmao in, unaware of the strange atmosphere in the restaurant.
An Ruyu, who was hiding in Xu Xiang's arms, frowned subconsciously when she saw An Chengmao. He was still alive...
“You’re all here, that’s good. Ruyu, come here, this is your father.”
An Chengmao stared intently at An Ruyu, a sinister smile on his face.
An Ruyu felt very uncomfortable under that gaze. She had done this very discreetly, so even if An Chengmao knew it was her, he had no evidence whatsoever.
"Father…"
"Hehe, my good daughter."
An Chengmao reached out to An Ruyu and patted her head.
Anhe finally felt relieved. He had been thinking about how to send An Ruyu back, but thankfully An Chengmao came to him personally.
