“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 be so stubbornly misguided. No one has taken anything from you—it’s just that your mind is a bit too narrow!”
Qiao Chuxi was somewhat surprised that Qiao Meng had appeared here. Hadn’t Uncle already confined her at home? How had she managed to come out?
“Stop pretending here! I know exactly what kind of woman you are. You just don’t want me to live well, and I won’t let you live well either, you bitch!”
Qiao Meng completely ignored Qiao Chuxi’s words. As soon as she finished speaking, the sulfuric acid in her hand was already being hurled toward Qiao Chuxi. If she couldn’t defeat this woman in a fair fight, she was more than capable of ensuring this woman would never dare show her face in public again.
A shriek echoed out. Everyone could guess what was about to happen next, especially Qiao Chuxi, who had already frozen in place…
“Aren’t you crazy?!”
At that moment, a voice rang into Qiao Chuxi’s ears. Her delicate body quickly moved away from where she had stood frozen. The next second, a familiar sensation arose—she was lying in a man’s arms.
The sulfuric acid Qiao Meng had thrown splashed entirely onto the ground. Everything had happened in a flash, so quickly that some people hadn’t even had time to react. Was this even humanly possible?
“Let go of me…”
Qiao Chuxi’s body was tightly held by Xiao Yufan. A blush appeared on her face, and the fear she had felt earlier seemed to dissipate. This man had appeared just in time. If it weren’t for him, she might have been permanently scarred today.
“Oh…”
Xiao Yufan responded briefly and immediately let go of his arms. Qiao Chuxi’s bottom landed solidly on the ground. Pain and embarrassment surged simultaneously. The look she shot Xiao Yufan was filled with indignation.
“You jerk! Don’t you know how to cherish a beauty? Don’t you realize that if you let me go, I’d fall on the ground?”
“Well, you did ask me to let go. You women are so strange. If you didn’t want me to let go, just say so directly. After all, holding a beautiful lady like you isn’t a loss for me at all!”
Looking completely innocent, Xiao Yufan shrugged his shoulders. This woman really needed some proper discipline; otherwise, she’d soon become completely uncontrollable.
“You…”
Deciding not to argue with Xiao Yufan, Qiao Chuxi knew that no matter what she said, she’d never get the upper hand against this man. In the end, she’d just end up at a disadvantage, so she wisely chose to remain silent.
However, her gaze shifted toward Qiao Meng. Recalling the dangerous moment just now, her delicate eyebrows 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 this go so easily…”
Qiao Meng hadn’t anticipated an unexpected interruption by a third party. She knew exactly who this man was. In her view, Xiao Yufan and Qiao Chuxi were the culprits responsible for her suffering. Even though this attempt had failed, she wouldn’t let Qiao Chuxi off the hook.
“You’re not going anywhere yet—you haven’t even apologized…”
Seeing Qiao Meng trying to leave, Xiao Yufan’s expression turned icy cold. Leaving just like that after nearly harming someone—she was clearly overestimating her importance…
