Chapter 919: 436

On normal days, Liu Xin, who usually acts tough and arrogant, is now being beaten and doesn’t even dare to make a sound. However, when Xiao Shiyao and Lu Xinyi finish chatting and Xiao Shiyao turns to look at Liu Xin, she meets Liu Xin’s hateful gaze.

Lu Xinyi is so frightened by the intense hatred in Liu Xin’s eyes that she steps back twice. Fortunately, Xiao Shiyao reacts quickly and stabilizes Lu Xinyi before she falls to the ground.

"Thank you, Shiyao." Lu Xinyi steadies herself, but her face is still very pale.

"We’re family, there’s no need for thanks," Xiao Shiyao says with a smile to Lu Xinyi.

However, Xiao Shiyao holds Liu Xin accountable for this. After helping Lu Xinyi sit down, she then approaches Liu Xin.

The few who were ganging up on Liu Xin automatically step aside to let Xiao Shiyao through.

"Liu Xin, right? Drop that hateful look. What right do you have to look at my sister-in-law like that? Do you think what’s happening to you today is because of her?" Xiao Shiyao really despises people like Liu Xin.

"Isn’t it?" Liu Xin cries out hysterically. "If not for her, would I be cursed and beaten by them?"

"You’re delusional. Liu Xin, if we’re being honest, my sister-in-law should be the one holding a grudge against you. From the beginning, you approached her with the intention of throwing her into the fire pit. When you drugged her, did you ever think she was innocent and your friend? You never thought about these things, you just thought that after this night, Lu Xinyi would be ruined. You were just waiting to make a joke out of her. But, what you didn’t anticipate was that Lu Xinyi didn’t fall into your plans and ended up with my elder brother. Seeing my brother develop feelings for Lu Xinyi disturbed you, and you tried every means to spread rumors and use others to target Lu Xinyi. Moreover, you privately think that our families, the Xiao Family and the Situ Family, would not accept a daughter-in-law from a simple background. You are wrong, our family doesn’t accept people with bad character like you," Xiao Shiyao ruthlessly exposed all the things Liu Xin did to Lu Xinyi: "You also stop giving my sister-in-law those looks. I’m not afraid to tell you, from today on, if you dare to harm my sister-in-law even slightly, I will deal with you myself, even without my brother’s intervention."

As Xiao Shiyao finished speaking, the bell for classes rang.

Those girls who wanted to punish Liu Xin more had to return to their respective classes. However, Liu Xin’s days at school were destined to be tough.

Liu Xin only dares to bully someone like Lu Xinyi, who doesn’t have a significant background. Facing Xiao Shiyao, she has no choice but to submit. Xiao Shiyao said ruthlessly to Liu Xin, "Remember, Lu Xinyi is now part of our Xiao and Situ families. If you dare to touch her, I will make sure you remember it for the rest of your life." Before returning to her seat, Xiao Shiyao couldn’t help but warn Liu Xin.

She was afraid that Liu Xin was still not settled. Slyly plotting against Lu Xinyi.

"Shiyao, thank you so much." Lu Xinyi truly didn’t expect Xiao Shiyao to defend her so fiercely.

"Hey, if you keep being so formal with me, I’m going to get angry. Hurry up, classes are starting. The teacher will be here soon. Also, you’re coming home with me after school today; my mom asked me to bring you along," Xiao Shiyao suddenly remembered what her mother had specifically instructed her before she left this morning.

"Ah, does Auntie need something from me?" Mentioning Xiao Xuyang’s mother made Lu Xinyi feel a bit uneasy.

"Yes, there is something. My mom practices medicine, and she’s worried about you and wants to take your pulse. Oh, I also forgot one thing," Xiao Shiyao explained, feeling a bit overwhelmed by all these things that she needed to remember at once.

"What is it?"

"My elder brother told me to tell you that he has already confessed everything to my parents and great-grandfather. So, everyone knows about your pregnancy now. He asked you to focus on taking care of the baby and leave other matters to him, including dealing with your parents," Xiao Shiyao shared, noting her brother’s genuine affection for a girl and how he becomes exceptionally caring. In the past, she thought whoever married her brothers was unlucky. They seemed like they wouldn’t be loving husbands.

Now, she wanted to take back her earlier words.

"I understand," Lu Xinyi said, not expecting Xiao Xuyang to confess to his parents so quickly. Furthermore, he would even handle her parents well.

Actually, she was really stressed about how to tell her parents about her pregnancy and her relationship with Xiao Xuyang. And she was also worried that her parents, like her, might not accept Xiao Xuyang’s family. After all, there was a big gap between the Xiao Family, the Situ Family, and her own.

Since the incident involving her cousin, her parents, like her, wanted to find a match that was equal in social standing.

Therefore, when she went home yesterday, she only told her parents she had a boyfriend but didn’t reveal his identity.

Today Xiao Xuyang didn’t go to the office; he called his assistant and said he needed to handle a major personal issue and not to disturb him for the entire day before hanging up.

Even after Xiao Xuyang ended the call, his assistant couldn’t react.

His boss was actually skipping work for a day, and that too for an excuse like this.

However, as curious as his assistant was about what this personal matter might be, he didn’t dare ask. Instead, he went to tell the group still waiting in the meeting room, waiting for the boss to start the meeting, to go about their business as the boss was skipping work today.

Upon hearing that Xiao Xuyang’s assistant said the boss wouldn’t come because he was dealing with a major personal matter, a young woman’s face immediately darkened. She pressed Xiao Xuyang’s assistant on what personal matter was being handled.

All she got in return from Xiao Xuyang’s assistant was a sentence, "I’d like to know too, but I don’t dare to ask. Maybe one of you dares to ask the boss and then tell me the answer?"

No one dared to call their boss on this.

Today, even if they had a pressing issue, they wouldn’t dare call their boss, fearing they might accidentally upset him. They certainly didn’t want to be sent to the company branch in Africa.

The woman’s face grew even uglier; she really wanted to call Xiao Xuyang for clarification but truly lacked the courage.

Meanwhile, Xiao Xuyang was already driving into the residential complex where Lu Xinyi lived.

Because of the car Xiao Xuyang drove, the security guards didn’t ask any questions, they just opened the gate and let him through.
