CHAPTER 50: CHAPTER 50: PROTECTING JIANG XUE

"Aunt Mu, Jiang Xue is like this, and you’re still defending her? Have you been brainwashed by her?" Zhuoyue looked at Bai Yuhua in disbelief, as if looking at a lunatic.

"What do you mean brainwashed, I think it’s you who’s been brainwashed. I know what kind of person Xue’er is, just as I know what kind of person Cheng Li is. Let me warn you again, my Xue’er just had a baby and can’t handle noise, so go home. I’ll pretend you didn’t come over."

"Aunt Mu, I’m doing this for your own good. Why don’t you appreciate it? I’m telling you, precisely because Jiang Xue just had a baby, you should be tough on her and teach her a lesson. Otherwise, she’ll definitely cause a big scene using the fact that she just gave birth, and won’t pay any attention to you."

"Zhuoyue, shut up. What happens with my Xue’er is none of your business. Get out, out!"

Bai Yuhua, hearing Zhuoyue speak about Jiang Xue this way, was thoroughly furious and directly kicked him out.

But Zhuoyue, not having seen Jiang Xue or vented his anger for Cheng Li, was unwilling to leave. He stood at the door, refusing to move, locking eyes with Bai Yuhua in a staring match.

"What’s going on?" Mu Siwu had originally planned to handle this, but upon hearing his wife arguing with Zhuoyue, came over to see.

Seeing Mu Siwu, Zhuoyue’s face lit up with joy, and he said, "Uncle Mu, please reason with Aunt, she’s not letting me in to teach Jiang Xue a lesson."

Upon hearing that Zhuoyue actually wanted to enter the Mu Family, and moreover to teach Jiang Xue a lesson, Mu Siwu’s face darkened and he said, "Zhuoyue, what did you just say? Teach who?"

"Uncle Mu, of course to teach Jiang Xue a lesson. I know she’s been unfilial to you and bad to you. Don’t worry, I will definitely teach her a good lesson so that she’ll never dare do it again."

Mu Siwu’s face grew even darker as he glared at Zhuoyue and said, "Zhuoyue, what happens in my house is none of your concern. Go home or else I’ll have your father straighten you out."

"You’re just a young person who hasn’t learned right from wrong, yet you think of teaching others a lesson."

"Uncle Mu, why are you also siding with Jiang Xue? What’s so good about her? She argues with you everyday and does nothing. If you ask me, Brother Qian Cheng should divorce her."

"Get out, even if there’s something wrong with Jiang Xue, she’s still part of my Mu Family, what does it matter to you? Who are you to come into my house and criticize?" Mu Siwu was furious and his voice rose several notches.

Jiang Xue stood in the corridor, listening to her father-in-law and mother-in-law defending her, her heart warmed greatly. Feeling touched, she no longer stood there but instead walked towards the front door.

Zhuoyue, after hearing Mu Siwu’s words, still wanted to say more. Lifting his head, he suddenly saw Jiang Xue approaching. His face turned instantly, and he bypassed Bai Yuhua, rushing in front of Jiang Xue, glaring at her fiercely, and said, "Jiang Xue, you dare come out?"

"Why wouldn’t I dare come out?" Jiang Xue coldly met Zhuoyue’s stare. She didn’t know him well, only that he was a suitor of Cheng Li.

Previously, Cheng Li had told her that Zhuoyue was a fool, that if she just smiled at him, he would be so stupefied he’d lose his sense of direction.

At that time, she didn’t believe it. But now, she did. Zhuoyue indeed was stupid, just like she was in a past life, foolishly believing that Cheng Li was the person who treated her the best in this world.

But the reality? It had slapped her hard.
