"Which eye of yours saw me stealing the pig?"
Yan Yuexian’s eyes bulged as she pointed to her face, "Both my left and right eyes saw it!"
Her room’s balcony had a clear view of this area.
Just now, while she was upstairs enjoying the view, she saw someone sneaking around trying to steal a pig, so she immediately grabbed a butcher knife and charged down to slash at them.
To her surprise, it turned out to be Xia Weibao!
This was outrageous; it was bad enough that her garden was trashed, but now someone had the gall to try to steal her pig!
Xia Weibao spread her hands, "Which one did I steal?"
"That’s because I was timely, aren’t you going to deny that you were just about to abscond with my pig?"
Xia Weibao was somewhat at a loss for words; she did want to hold the pig, but she did not intend to run off with it, so the accusation was only half right.
"I came to help you feed the pig."
Xia Weibao told the truth; reasoning with someone like Yan Yuexian, a young lady of a wealthy family with a princess complex, was too exhausting.
Yan Yuexian’s eyes immediately went round, then she lunged to check on her pigs, emitting a series of strange cries.
"Aaaah Xia Weibao, you were actually trying to poison my pigs!!! I will kill you!!!"
As the angry shout fell, Yan Yuexian had already brandished the butcher knife, chopping towards Xia Weibao.
"Yuexian, what are you doing!"
"Put the knife down!"
A man and a woman’s stern shouts came from behind, but it was already too late as Yan Yuexian swung the knife down.
Xia Weibao’s expression darkened, and she swiftly kicked Yan Yuexian on the wrist; the wrist went numb, and the knife clanged to the ground.
Yan Yuexian was dumbstruck at that moment.
Behind her, a man and a woman quickly approached.
The man was Yan Fei, wearing white sweatpants, a black tank top, revealing his muscular arms, with a clean white towel draped over his shoulder, his face slightly flushed, forehead dripping with sweat.
Clearly, he had been exercising.
Xia Weibao turned her gaze to the woman in front of her, her expression momentarily stunned.
She was a very beautiful woman, dressed in a blue cheongsam, outlining a noble and graceful figure with her well-maintained physique.
She was elegant, her black hair meticulously coiled into a bun behind her, her demeanor gentle yet with an air of authority.
Her skin was well cared for, looking very young.
Seeing the arrivals, Yan Yuexian stamped her feet, then with a face full of grievance, she ran over to them.
"Auntie, brother, she bullied me."
Yan Fei glanced at Xia Weibao, who looked innocent, and then at Yan Yuexian, who was full of accusations.
"Yuexian, stop causing trouble."
Being scolded by her brother, Yan Yuexian’s princess syndrome flared up instantly, "How am I causing trouble? She is bullying me, brother, how can you just side with an outsider without getting the full story?"
Yan Lingyi looked at the girl in front of her, the softest part of her heart suddenly trembled.
She felt an inexplicable sense of kinship...
She stared at Xia Weibao’s face, somewhat dazed.
Similar, she bore a resemblance to her younger self.
Yan Lingyi asked, her voice gentle and comforting to hear.
Xia Weibao was also staring at the woman before her, and for some reason, this woman gave her a sense of kinship as well.
Before she could respond, Yan Yuexian’s somewhat acidic words cut in.
"Who else can it be, it’s Xia Weibao alright; she has the gall to climb over our walls after stealing my cousin’s man. Where’s the security? Arrest her and take her to the station; people like her should be imprisoned for life!"
Yuexian!" Yan Lingyi scolded sharply.
Yet her tone couldn’t hide the indulgence in it.
Yan Yuexian stomped her foot, visibly displeased, finding Xia Weibao disagreeable no matter how she looked at her.
From the corner of her eye, she saw Yan Weiyang approaching, and Yan Yuexian’s face changed.
