“Qiao Chuxi, you bitch! Taking what’s rightfully mine was bad enough, but now you’re pushing me like this…”
Qiao Meng’s voice was somewhat hysterical. Being cooped up at home for these past few days had made her feel terribly wronged, so in this moment, she simply wanted to unleash all her fury.
“Qiao Meng, I thought handing you over to Uncle would make you sincerely repent, but I didn’t expect you to remain so stubbornly deluded. Nobody has taken anything from you—it’s just that your heart is a little too narrow!”
Qiao Chuxi was somewhat surprised that Qiao Meng had appeared here. Hadn’t Uncle locked her up at home? How could she have escaped?
“Stop pretending here! I know exactly what kind of woman you are. You just don’t want me to have peace, and I won’t let you, you bitch, have peace either!”
Qiao Chuxi’s words completely failed to penetrate Qiao Meng’s mind. As her sentence ended, the sulfuric acid in her hand was already hurled toward Qiao Chuxi. Unable to defeat this woman, she was determined to ensure this woman would never dare show her face again.
A scream echoed out. Everyone could guess what was about to happen next, especially Qiao Chuxi, who stood frozen in shock…
“Aren’t you crazy?!”
At that moment, a voice reached Qiao Chuxi’s ears. Her slender body quickly moved away from where she had stood. In an instant, a familiar sensation arose—she was lying in a man’s arms.
The sulfuric acid Qiao Meng had thrown splashed entirely onto the ground. The speed of that action was like lightning; some people hadn’t even reacted yet. Was this even humanly possible?
“Let go of me…”
Her body tightly held by Xiao Yufan, a blush crept onto Qiao Chuxi’s face, and the previous fear seemed to dissipate instantly. This man’s appearance was perfectly timed. If it weren’t for him, she might have been scarred for life today.
“Oh…”
Xiao Yufan responded briefly and immediately released his arms. Qiao Chuxi’s bottom landed solidly on the ground. Pain and embarrassment surged simultaneously, and the look she shot Xiao Yufan was filled with frustration.
“Qiao Chuxi, you despicable woman, not only did you take what belongs to me, but you also push me to this extent…”
Qiao Meng’s voice was hysterical. Having been cooped up at home these past few days had already made her feel deeply wronged, and now she just wanted to vent all her pent-up rage.
“Qiao Meng, I thought handing you over to our uncle would make you sincerely repent, but I never imagined you’d remain so stubborn. No one took anything from you; it’s just that your heart is too narrow-minded!”
Qiao Chuxi was surprised to see Qiao Meng here. Hadn’t their uncle confined her to the house? How did she manage to escape?
“Stop acting here. I know exactly what kind of woman you are. You just don’t want me to have a good life, and I won’t let you, this vile woman, have one either!”
Qiao Meng didn’t listen to a word Qiao Chuxi said. As soon as she finished speaking, she hurled the sulfuric acid in her hand towards Qiao Chuxi. If she couldn’t defeat this woman, she could at least ensure she’d never be able to show her face again.
A gasp of shock echoed through the air. Everyone could guess what was about to happen next, especially Qiao Chuxi, who stood frozen in place.
“Are you out of your mind?”
At that moment, a voice reached Qiao Chuxi’s ears. Her delicate body quickly shifted from where she had been standing, and in the next second, a familiar sensation washed over her—she was now lying in a man’s arms.
The sulfuric acid Qiao Meng had thrown splashed harmlessly onto the ground, all in the blink of an eye. Some people hadn’t even processed what had happened. Was that even humanly possible speed?
“Let me go…”
Qiao Chuxi’s body was tightly held by Xiao Yufan, and a blush of embarrassment spread across her face. The fear she had felt moments ago seemed to dissipate. This man had appeared just in time. If it weren’t for him, she might have been disfigured today.
“Alright…”
Xiao Yufan responded and immediately released his arms. Qiao Chuxi’s bottom made a solid impact with the ground, and a mix of pain and embarrassment surged through her. She glared at Xiao Yufan, her eyes filled with frustration.
“You jerk! You have no idea how to treat a lady. Didn’t you know I’d fall if you let go?”
“You told me to let go. Women are so strange. If you didn’t want me to let go, you should’ve just said so. It’s not like holding a beautiful woman like you is any loss to me!”
With an innocent expression, Xiao Yufan shrugged his shoulders. This woman needed to be taught a lesson; otherwise, she’d become too unruly.
“You…”
Qiao Chuxi decided not to argue with Xiao Yufan. She knew that no matter what she said, she’d never win against him. In the end, he’d still have the upper hand, so she wisely chose to remain silent.
However, her gaze shifted to Qiao Meng. Recalling the dangerous moment earlier, her brows furrowed slightly. She hadn’t expected Qiao Meng to be so vicious, even attempting to throw sulfuric acid at her.
“You little wretch, you got lucky this time, but I won’t let you off so easily…”
Qiao Meng hadn’t anticipated that someone would intervene at the last moment. She knew exactly who this man was. In her eyes, Xiao Yufan and Qiao Chuxi were the root cause of her misery. Even if she failed this time, she wouldn’t let Qiao Chuxi have peace.
“Who said you could leave? You haven’t apologized yet…”
Seeing Qiao Meng trying to leave, Xiao Yufan’s expression turned icy. Not only was this woman utterly detestable, but she also thought she could just walk away after nearly harming someone? She really overestimated herself.
“Well, wasn’t it you who told me to let go? You women are so strange. If you don’t want me to let go, just say so directly. After all, holding a beautiful lady like you wouldn’t be any loss to me!”
Feigning innocence, Xiao Yufan shrugged his shoulders. This woman really needed some proper training, or she’d soon become completely uncontrollable.
“You…”
Deciding not to argue with Xiao Yufan, Qiao Chuxi knew that no matter what she said, she wouldn’t be able to outwit this man. In the end, she would only end up at a disadvantage, so wisely, she chose to stay silent.
However, her gaze shifted toward Qiao Meng. Recalling the perilous moment just now, her delicate brows slightly furrowed. She hadn’t expected this woman to be so ruthless as to try to throw sulfuric acid on her.
“You little whore, consider yourself lucky this time, but I won’t let you off so easily…”
Qiao Meng hadn’t expected an unexpected interloper to appear out of nowhere. She knew exactly who this man was. In her eyes, Xiao Yufan and Qiao Chuxi were the culprits responsible for her misery. Even though this attempt had failed, she wouldn’t let Qiao Chuxi escape unscathed.
“You’re not going anywhere yet—you haven’t even apologized…”
Seeing Qiao Meng trying to leave, Xiao Yufan’s expression turned ice-cold. Leaving just like that after nearly hurting someone? She was clearly overestimating her importance…
