"Woman, don’t be nervous, you can do it. Don’t worry, even if you can’t, I’m here. We’ll definitely beat them to a pulp," Little Fox sensed Jiang Xue’s nervousness and comforted her.
Perhaps Little Fox’s reassurance worked, as Jiang Xue gradually relaxed and waited quietly for the other party to arrive. Google seaʀᴄh novel⸺fire.net
Closer, even closer. The footsteps were right in front of her, a shadow appeared in Jiang Xue’s view, so she didn’t hesitate and directly raised the stick in her hand and swung it down.
With the swing of the stick, a scream rang out.
The sound was somewhat familiar, Jiang Xue was taken aback, summoned her courage and stepped out. When she saw who she had hit, she froze and asked, "Why is it you?"
"Why couldn’t it be me?" Zhuoyue looked at Jiang Xue angrily, one hand pressed on his head. The hit Jiang Xue delivered was too strong; a bump had formed by now.
Yes, the one who climbed over the wall was none other than Zhuoyue. If Jiang Xue hadn’t initially panicked upon seeing someone climbing over the wall and thought a little more, she might have figured out who it was.
After all, next to the Mu Family was the Zhuo Family. There wasn’t a second person besides Zhuoyue who would do such a reckless thing.
"What are you doing at my house?" Jiang Xue’s gaze turned cold. It seemed Zhuoyue hadn’t taken her warning yesterday seriously; he dared to come again today, and not through the front door, but climbed over the wall when her parents-in-law were not at home.
What did he want to do?
Zhuoyue didn’t answer but looked at Jiang Xue coldly and said, "I didn’t realize you actually had some guts, daring to hit me."
"So what if I hit you?" Jiang Xue glared at Zhuoyue, "You sneaked over the wall into my house, and you think that’s okay?"
"Me?" Zhuoyue was rendered speechless by Jiang Xue’s retort. He knew he was in the wrong, but he thought about it all night yesterday and decided to come find trouble with Jiang Xue. Otherwise, he felt he was letting Cheng Li down.
"Zhuoyue, I’m home alone now, so I’ll pretend I didn’t see you. Go back where you came from," Jiang Xue didn’t want things to get too awkward. After all, they’re neighbors, and it’s said, ’Distant relatives aren’t as useful as close neighbors.’
When it really matters, neighbors and relatives can be helpful.
But Zhuoyue disagreed, he glared at Jiang Xue and said, "Jiang Xue, you hit me, and you think that’s the end of it?"
"What do you want then?"
"It’s simple, you need to apologize to Cheng Li in person." Zhuoyue revealed his intention, causing Jiang Xue’s expression to instantly darken. She said, "Zhuoyue, are you crazy? If you’re here to defend Cheng Li, then we have nothing to talk about. Just go."
"Jiang Xue, don’t think that having Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu on your side lets you avoid admitting your mistakes. I’m telling you, that won’t work with me. You must apologize to Cheng Li, otherwise don’t blame me for being unkind."
"Unkind? How do you intend to be unkind?" Jiang Xue was almost driven mad by Zhuoyue, she sneered.
"What do you think?" Zhuoyue swung his fist, looking like he was ready to fight.
Jiang Xue was completely angered, she glared at Zhuoyue and said, "Zhuoyue, I’ll say it again, go back where you came from, or else..."
"Or what? Do you think you can beat me up? With that little physique of yours, can you overcome me? Jiang Xue, I advise you not to ask for trouble, just obediently apologize to Cheng Li, or don’t say I bullied you."
When you can bear no more, you need not bear it anymore.
Jiang Xue truly couldn’t hold back, and then once again raised the stick in her hand and struck it towards Zhuoyue’s body.
