“l never considered that!” Qiao Xuan raised her eyebrows with disdain. “Remember this – I have never entertained such thoughts in the past, I am not entertaining them now, and I will never entertain them in the future. And what decision can you possibly make for me? Surely you don’t believe that, do you?”

“You…” Qiao Hongxi’s eyes widened with annoyance.

The images of Qiao Xuan, who mocked him for not being able to afford the jade, and Qiao Xuan, who used to be timid at home, kept replaying in Qiao Hongxi’s mind, intertwining and exacerbating his anger. He was on the verge of exploding.

This audacious girl! Who did she think she was? How dare she flaunt herself in front of him!

He had never taken her seriously, never even regarded her as a human being. Yet, one day, she had the audacity to confront him face-to-face, and he seemed incapable of besting her. No one could calmly accept such a transformation.

For a proud and conceited person, that was inconceivable.

“How dare you!” Qiao Hongxi slapped Qiao Xuan across the face and snarled, “Today, I will teach you a lesson!”

Qiao Hongxi’s hand tingled from the impact of the slap. However, a twisted sense of satisfaction filled him as he raised his hand, preparing to strike her again.

Shao Yunduan swiftly seized his raised wrist, his expression icy.

Qiao Hongxi trembled at the sharpness in Shao Yunduan’s eyes. Yet, when he considered his status as the elder brother, he straightened his posture and barked at Shao Yunduan, “What do you think you’re doing? Let go of me! I am disciplining that wretched girl, you… ah!”

Shao Yunduan delivered a forceful punch to Qiao Hongxi’s stomach. “Shame on you!’

Agonizing pain shot through Qiao Hongxi’s body, causing his face to pale as beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead.

He staggered backward, clutching his stomach, taking a long while to recover. Glaring at Shao Yunduan with a mix of fear and shame, he uttered, “How dare you strike me!”

“I struck you, and if you dare lay a finger on my wife, I will strike you every time our paths cross!”

“You’re rebelling!” Madame Yuezheng shouted angrily, slamming her hand on the table. “How dare you! Where do you think you come from? How dare you raise a hand against us in our own home? Kneel down and confess your sins! Every girl in the Qiao Family knows the rules. You will never set foot in our door again!”

Madame Yuezheng breathed heavily, her anger palpable.

As a grandmother with many grandchildren, she had always treated Qiao Hongxi well. But witnessing her own lineal grandson being struck by the husband of a concubine’s granddaughter ignited a fierce rage within her.

It was a humiliation!

First Madame Qiao and Second Mrs. Qiao exchanged glances, their expressions filled with delight.

They eagerly anticipated the clash between the lineal and concubine’s branches of the family.

“Didn’t you hear what Madame Yuezheng said? Kneel down and apologize!

Show some manners! ”

“That’s right, Qiao Xuan, you are a daughter of the Qiao Family. Don’t you care about your own kin?”

“How did Third Sister-in-law raise this concubine’s daughter to be so arrogant?”

“Exactly!

Qiao Hongxi signaled for a maid to assist him in standing, and with one hand on his stomach, he retorted coldly, ‘Don’t misunderstand, Second Aunt-in-law. Some people are born with a lowly nature, and no amount of teaching can improve them.. It has nothing to do with my mother!”
