Chiang Qingshui winced in pain, leapt up, but just so happened to step onto a broom handle. When Chiang Xiao yanked the broom away suddenly, she immediately lost her balance and fell backward.
"Ah!" Chiang Qingshui screamed in terror. Falling backward face up from such a height, she could have been killed!
Fortunately, Yang Dazhi rushed over and caught her.
Chiang Qingshui collapsed into Yang Dazhi’s arms, her soul still in turmoil. She felt as if she could hear her own heart frantically thumping.
She’s gone mad, completely mad, that wretched girl Chiang Xiao, how could she dare, how could she dare?
Moreover, how could she fail to overpower her? Couldn’t even wrestle the broom away?
Could it really be as mother said, that Chiang Xiao had truly learned martial arts from her fiancé who was the Supervisor Guard?
"Qingshui, Qingshui!" Seeing her looking lost and dazed, Yang Dazhi called out twice but got no response, so in his urgency, he quickly slapped her face.
However, he failed to control his strength and, accustomed to rough work, he slapped her twice with quite some force, causing Chiang Qingshui’s face to hurt.
Chiang Qingshui, feeling the pain from the slap, instinctively straightened up and, without thinking, swung her hand back and gave him a hard slap.
"Yang Dazhi, you worthless fool! How dare you lay a hand on me! Where were you when I needed help just now?"
Jumping up with all her might, she swung at Yang Dazhi’s face, and with a smack, his cheek turned red.
Chiang Qingshui felt her own hand stinging with pain, but she didn’t feel the slightest bit of sympathy for Yang Dazhi. While Chiang Xiao was beating her, she repeatedly cried out for his help, for him to strike Chiang Xiao, yet why didn’t he move?
She hadn’t considered, what kind of man would, as her uncle, lower himself to strike a young girl? How could Yang Dazhi bring himself to do it?
Yang Dazhi, having been slapped by her, dared not say much and could only hold back for a while before he eventually spoke up in a low voice to appease her, "Qingshui, it’s okay for you to hit me. Let off some steam, shall we go back now?"
"Go back to your mother!" Chiang Qingshui snapped, pointing at Chiang Xiao, "I want you to take revenge for me now! Go, beat that wretched girl to death for me! She has turned the world upside down, daring to hit her aunt? That orphan without parents, truly an ill-bred mongrel!"
"I dare you to touch her!" Xu Linjiang immediately stood in front of Chiang Xiao, glaring angrily.
Although he wasn’t worried about Chiang Xiao handling Chiang Qingshui, Yang Dazhi was a robust man, and he feared Chiang Xiao might end up at a disadvantage.
Chiang Xiao patted his back and stepped out from behind him, saying, "Uncle, it’s okay."
Yang Dazhi noticed that when she addressed Xu Linjiang as uncle, her tone was much softer than when she called him that, it completely lacked the same feeling, and he wasn’t sure how to feel about that.
"Yang Dazhi, what are you standing there dumbstruck for?" Chiang Qingshui saw him immobile and her anger flared up again. She felt pain all over her body, unbearable pain! She could not, under any circumstances, swallow this indignity! "Go take revenge for me, beat that wretched girl to death! Go on, kick her! I’ll back you up if anyone tries to stop you!"
As she spoke, she lunged at Xu Linjiang, "Come on, you try, come and hit me, if you dare to touch me I’ll accuse you of indecency!"
Xu Linjiang immediately took two steps back.
He had never expected Chiang Qingshui to be so shameless as to pull such a stunt!
He could handle Yang Dazhi, but indeed, he dared not lay a hand on Chiang Qingshui!
