Chapter 448: Want to Get Him Executed on the Spot
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the living room, Mother Xu looked at Lin Wanli with great admiration because she finally felt what it meant to be a confident, brave, and independent young lady among the younger generation. Being an honest and clean woman would really emit a dazzling light that could not be ignored.
“Sister-in-law, if you make this decision on your own, what will Huiwen do if she is ostracized and ridiculed by others in the future?”
“So you mean to ask Miss Xu to endure it? I don’t want to argue with you. I just want to ask you one thing. If you, Mu Qingya, encountered such a problem, would you tolerate Su Yuanchao for a second longer?”
“I…” Mu Qingya couldn’t answer.
“You’re the daughter of the Mu Family. Of course, you can’t tolerate such a scumbag. But Miss Xu is also the daughter of the Xu family. Why should she swallow her anger?” Lin Wanli hit the nail on the head and asked, “If Miss Xu has to retreat again and again because of her reputation and other people’s opinions when she encounters such a problem, then what will happen to an ordinary housewife when she encounters such a situation?”
“Do you expect the Su family to have a conscience and be honest with Miss Xu and the child? Or, Second Sister-in-law, are you going to live a life of despair for Miss Xu?”
Mu Qingya was also speechless because Lin Wanli’s mouth was really too powerful. It was completely irresistible.
“Don’t trv to smooth things over. It will make vou look like vou have no
morals.”
Seeing Lin Wanli teach Mu Qingya a lesson, the discomfort in Mother Xu’s heart finally disappeared, and the word “pleasure” rushed from the bottom of her feet to the top of her head.
Mu Qingya had no choice but to pretend to be innocent. She explained with tears in her eyes. “I just hope that Huiwen can be happy. I don’t want her to suffer too much.”
At this time, Mother Xu finally couldn’t hold it in anymore. She sneered and said, “That’s enough. Uncle Xu and I know about your husband’s business with Su Yuanchao. Acting is just acting. Don’t believe it yourself.”
“Let’s go!” Mother Xu waved at Lin Wanli. “Come with me and Uncle Xu for a checkup.”
Mu Qingya was immediately petrified and completely frozen on the spot. The shame of being exposed for backstabbing someone instantly filled her entire body, making her wish she could dig a hole and hide in it.
Lin Wanli looked at Mu Qingya and snorted, but she didn’t say anything. She just walked to Mother Xu’s side, held her arm, and left the hall with Uncle Xu.
At this moment, Mu Qingya couldn’t move her legs at all. This was even more awkward than when she was caught by Mother Xu in the pavilion. She was so embarrassed that she had goosebumps all over. It turned out that the Xu family knew everything. They knew that Huo Shengyuan had backstabbed them and that Huo Shengyuan had gone to work with Su Yuanchao. No wonder Mother Xu’s attitude towards her had changed so much. At this moment, Mu Qingya didn’t know where to go. She wanted to leave Deer Pavilion immediately, but if she left, what would happen to Huo Shengyuan?
In the corridor outside the hall, Mother Xu was full of praise for Lin Wanli’s combat ability. “Your little mouth, shouldn’t you go and get some insurance? It’s comparable to a nuclear weapon.”
“It was because they were in the wrong and felt guilty that I seized the opportunity. However, Auntie, let’s talk about the facts. You and Uncle should know what Mu Qingya and Huo Shengyuan are like. They are really not gentlemen. I’m not saying this to seize power for our Master Xiao. I just feel that there’s no need to get close to such people who don’t seem like what they are.”
In the past, everyone only had a superficial understanding and didn’t know much about them. Mother Xu thought that the two of them were flattering at most. But now, with Lin Wanli and Huo Shengyuan as a contrast, they really didn’t look good anymore.
“Don’t worry, we’re not that muddlehead yet.”
“That’s good.”
The few of them walked through the corridor and went to the side hall where the guests were. The few of them had heard about what had happened at the door, so they also praised the old couple’s actions.
Master Xiao had used his ultimate skill, so he knew what had happened in the living room. However, Huo Shengyuan didn’t know. He thought that his wife would be able to win against Lin Wanli and get the praise of the Xu family’s parents. However, they had already reached the living room, but he didn’t see his wife. So, he walked to Mother Xu and asked, “Auntie, where’s Qingya?” “Maybe she’s not feeling well. She’s still in the living room.”
Huo Shengyuan looked back and saw Mu Qingya walking toward everyone with a pale face.
“Are you feeling unwell?” Huo Shengyuan immediately went up and held Mu Qingya’s arm.
Mu Qingya glanced at Mother Xu and Lin Wanli. She wanted to tell him what had happened, but she felt that this was not a good place to talk. She could only swallow the humiliation. “A little.”
“Do you want to go back to your room to rest?”
“No need.” Mu Qingya replied. She had walked over to Huo Shengyuan to remind him. If she went back to her room to rest and Huo Shengyuan made a bigger joke out of himself, then the two of them wouldn’t have to go to the Xu family anymore.
It was only then that Mu Qingya felt her jealousy burning. She was clearly better than Lin Wanli in everything, but she just couldn’t be like Lin Wanli, who could quickly get Mother Xu’s affection. That woman was obviously nothing. Her words were vulgar and obscene, but Mother Xu was smiling as if she was looking at her own daughter.
What was even more helpless was that they had clearly been guarding against the two of them from getting any limelight in the Xu family, but after spending so much effort, they realized that they could not guard against them at all.
“You’re too fast, kid. If it wasn’t for the fact that my son isn’t at the legal age for marriage, I would have poached a daughter-in-law like Wanli from you.” Mother Xu did not hide her love for Lin Wanli in front of Huo Qingxiao.
Huo Shengyuan’s expression changed when he heard this. He looked at his wife with a questioning look, but Mu Qingya couldn’t answer him.
Was it her fault alone? Clearly, he had made the wrong decision himself and had gotten close to Su Yuanchao. This kind of thing couldn’t be blamed on her alone, right?
“That won’t do. This girl and my eldest had an ill-fated relationship in their previous lives. You’re too late.”
The group of old men joked about Lin Wanli and Huo Jiuxiao. At this moment, Lin Wanli walked to Huo Jiuxiao’s side and silently wrapped her arms around his waist.
[Master, I’m great, right?]
“Don’t smile so beautifully,” Huo Jiuxiao put his arm around her shoulders and whispered into her ear.
[Is it illegal?]
“I would want to punish you on the spot.”
Lin Wanli’s ears turned slightly red. She did not dare to act rashly anymore. Otherwise, she would not be able to stop this person’s “bestial nature”. How embarrassing would it be if people saw and spread the news?
The group of people walked towards the infirmary. At this moment, a boy in his early twenties with a buzz cut ran towards them anxiously.
This was the son of the Xu family. He showed Huo Shengyuan a 180-degree enthusiasm. “Brother Shengyuan..”
