Xuan Mingyu pulled Bai Xiaoruo, who was so angry that she wanted to confront Bai Xiaofu, back into his arms.
He didn't need her to lift a finger; he had his own ways of dealing with the woman in front of him.
An old geezer? Or is he half-buried in the ground?
Ha, this woman really doesn't know her place.
He had no idea that at his age, he was already a decrepit old man who should have been halfway to the grave.
"I know she's married, and believe it or not, even if her husband weren't dead, I could still get all the assets."
Those around looked at each other, wondering what was going on all of a sudden.
Bai Xiaoruo also looked at Xuan Mingyu with a puzzled expression. What exactly did he want to do? Why did he say that to Bai Xiaofu?
"How could that be? Since you know she has a husband, aren't you afraid that her husband will come after you and beat you two up?" Bai Xiaofu clearly couldn't believe Xuan Mingyu's words.
What a pair of scoundrels! Bai Xiaoruo could hardly stand it anymore. If it weren't for Xuan Mingyu holding her tightly and preventing her from going forward, Bai Xiaoruo would have really been so angry that she wanted to slap Bai Xiaofu. She had been bullied by Bai Xiaofu since she was a child, and she had a temper too!
"Since you said he's already an old man with one foot in the grave, tell me, how could he possibly beat me? You're so confident, could it be... that you know her husband better than anyone else?"
All eyes turned to Bai Xiaofu, who was speechless after hearing Xuan Mingyu's words and didn't know how to refute them.
"I was just trying to be helpful by reminding you not to push your luck. You two are exactly the same! You actually fell for a slut like Bai Xiaoruo. You're no better than her!"
"Bai Xiaofu, have you said enough?! What have I ever done to offend you? From childhood to adulthood, why do you always go against me?! I didn't marry some old man!" Bai Xiaoruo cried in anger, feeling extremely wronged.
Yes, she was no match for her. After her mother passed away, her father and stepmother became her biggest backers. She could have whatever she wanted. No matter how much her father and stepmother bullied her, they always turned a blind eye and didn't take it seriously. She could tolerate superficial injuries, pranks, and the wanton destruction of her things.
But today is Grandpa Xian Mingyu's birthday. This is the Xian family home, not their Bai family home. How can she be so arrogant and spout such nonsense to insult his own character!
The crowd grew larger and larger, and Song Meiyan also rushed over. She grabbed Bai Xiaofu's hand and tried to lead her back to her seat, saying, "Xiaofu, stop fooling around. Come on, let's go back."
At this point, Bai Xiaofu was not about to give up easily. "What am I making a fuss about! Mom, look at Bai Xiaoruo! How shameless she is! She's openly having an affair with another man! Today, I'm going to make everyone here see her and take off that hypocritical mask! Don't think that just because she's some kind of rich mistress, she can turn from a sparrow into a phoenix!"
Bai Xiaofu shook off Song Meiyan's hand and angrily strode towards Bai Xiaoruo in her high heels, raising her hand to slap her—
Over the past ten years, she had endured countless slaps and bullying. Bai Xiaoruo instinctively closed her eyes and hid in Xian Mingyu's arms.
The next second, Bai Xiaofu's slap didn't land, but Bai Xiaoruo heard her endless screams of "Ouch, ouch!"
Bai Xiaoruo opened her eyes and saw that Bai Xiaofu's wrist was being held by Xian Mingyu. He squeezed it a little harder, and Bai Xiaofu grimaced in pain, feeling as if the bones in her hand were about to be crushed.
"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts! Let go, let me go!"
Song Meiyan quickly pleaded for her precious daughter, "Young Master Xian, it's my fault for not disciplining my daughter properly. Please forgive her, I promise I will keep a close eye on her."
"Hmph!" Xuan Mingyu shrugged and flicked Bai Xiaofu's wrist away, finally freeing her from the fall. She almost fell to the ground in a sorry state.
Song Meiyan quickly helped her up, "How are you? Are you hurt anywhere? Does your hand still hurt?"
Bai Xiaofu refused to admit defeat and staggered to her feet again. "Who do you think you are! How dare you touch me! Do you know who I am? Believe me or not, when I call my dad here, I'll make sure your whole family never has a moment's peace! I'll send you to jail! I'll make sure you spend the rest of your life in jail!"
Xuan Mingyu wasn't angry. He turned to his bodyguard and whispered something to him. The bodyguard nodded and left the crowd.
"Xiao Fu! Stop talking! He's Grandpa Xian's grandson. Today is Grandpa Xian's birthday. We finally managed to get in here, so don't cause any more trouble!" Song Meiyan tried to pull Bai Xiaofu away again, but Bai Xiaofu refused no matter what.
"Mom! Why aren't you helping me? I've been bullied like this, how can I swallow this?! I don't care whose grandson he is, I'm going to get my dad and kill those disgusting bastards!"
Just as Bai Xiaofu was about to leave, several bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses suddenly appeared out of nowhere and blocked her way.
"No need to look anymore, I've already found your amazing father for you." Xuan Mingyu had long wanted to teach this family a lesson. This was his grandparents' home, and they were still acting so wildly, so he couldn't be blamed for it.
A few seconds later, Bai Minglei was restrained by two bodyguards and led to the center of the crowd.
Bai Minglei was initially bewildered. He was sitting comfortably when he was suddenly lifted up. When he saw Xuan Mingyu, Bai Xiaoruo who was crying sadly in his arms, and Bai Xiaofu and his wife Song Meiyan who were still arrogant, Bai Minglei lowered his head and said nothing more.
