Huo Qihan said this very tactfully and phrased it in a way that the person who had made the first move had beaten up the other until he had to be admitted to the hospital. If ordinary people heard this, they would automatically favor the injured party.

  He had vaguely spoken about Su Yayan beating Huo Shaofeng but glossed over the reason why Su Yayan had fought with Huo Shaofeng or why she even beat him in the first place.

  Taken out of context vaguely and tactfully, Huo Qihan seemed to imply that Su Yayan beat Huo Shaofeng because she was angry that he had cheated on her.

  What Huo Shaofeng did before was wrong, but he was beaten and scolded for his misdoings.

  They had also ordered him to break up with that woman, and if the Su family continued to pursue the matter, they would be perceived as overly aggressive.

  Su Yayan squinted her eyes and saw through Huo Qihan’s calculated thoughts. She wanted to go out and expose them but was held back by her grandfather again.

  “Where do you think you are going?”


  “I’m going to clear the air and tell them what happened. If I were mad about the engagement, I would have beaten Huo Shaofeng until he was sent to the hospital much earlier. Why would I wait until now?”


  Grandpa Cheng had his hunches after hearing her words. His eyes darkened, but he still did not let Su Yayan go out. “Don’t run around. It’s useless for a young lass like you to go out now. They might even take the opportunity to blame you. I…”


  He had wanted to say, “I will seek justice for you,” but when he thought of that, he recalled his daughter’s instructions to him and swallowed the words on his tongue sullenly.

  It just so happened that Qin Xueru just heard the commotion and came downstairs.

  Grandpa Cheng turned the conversation. “Your Aunt Qin will help you.”


  “Huh?” Qin Xueru looked at him blankly.

  Su Yayan came to a sudden realization and asked excitedly, “Aunt Qin, can you do me a favor?”


  Outside the door, Huo Qihan saw Cheng Xiuqin and her husband’s expressions relaxed slightly, and he was thrilled. Just when he wanted to say something, a beautiful woman walked out of the house.

  Qin Xueru glanced at the two couples with a cold expression and quickly stepped forward to Cheng Xiuqin and whispered a few words to her.

  The few people present saw Cheng Xiuqin’s face sinking visibly, and her gaze at the two of them was bloodthirsty.

  “Old Su, set the dogs loose! Order the dogs to bite them!”


  Mr. Su did not know what Qin Xueru said to his wife, but since it had worked her up, the Huo couple must have done something to make her angry.

  As a bona fide henpecked husband, Mr. Su trusted his wife unconditionally and let go of the leash in his hand. When the dogs were no longer under his control, they rushed towards Huo Qihan.

  “What are you going to do? Don’t come here! Stay away!” The two of them were startled, especially Mrs. Huo. Her legs went weak, and she could not run. Huo Qihan took a few steps back before he started running helter-skelter, nearly tripping over his feet.

  However, how could a two-legged man win the race against a seasoned four-legged hound? It certainly did not take long for those four dogs to catch up to them.

  When the dogs had bitten the two people, their screams could be heard from a distance.

  “Hahahaha…” Although Su Yayan could not see their tragic situation, she could easily imagine how miserable the two were from their voices. She felt a burst of joy in her heart.

  She laughed until tears streamed down her face. After finally recomposing herself, she lavished the heroine of the day with heartfelt praises. “Mom, you were seriously amazing just now!”


  “Of course! If people don’t offend me, I won’t offend them. Just because I usually speak softly, they think that I am a pushover. Pooh, I was merely magnanimous! Since they are shameless, why should I be polite to them? To deal with scoundrels like them, we have to be more wretched than they are!”
