Chapter 51: Coming Forward for Her

Yan Xiruo naturally wouldn’t be so bored and lame as to compare herself with Lu Jingchen’s lover here. She was the rightful wife and there really wasn’t a need for her to be angered by this woman who couldn’t even be considered to be a mistress.

Looking at Lili, who refused to let go of her wrist, she said in an imposing tone, “Let go.”

Lili was stunned for a few seconds when she saw the coldness in Yan Xiruo’s eyes. This woman who looked weak and harmless on the outside could actually give people an invisible sense of oppression.

She initially wanted to ridicule Yan Xiruo in front of her sisters. She didn’t expect Yan Xiruo to have the upper hand now.

After letting go of Yan Xiruo’s hand, Lili walked up and blocked her. She said, “Yan Xiruo, why are you so smug? I heard Young Lu mention that you’re just a servant’s daughter and isn’t compatible with him at all. If not for Old Master Lu who fancies you, would you have married into the Lu family?” After mentioning this, Lili paused slightly. Her lips curved into a meaningful smile. “You couldn’t have used any methods to bewitch and seduce Old Master Lu, right…?”

Before Lili could finish her words, she suffered a heavy slap to her face.

The crisp sound stunned Lili and her sisters.

Yan Xiruo glared at Lili, her face pale. She pointed her trembling finger at Lili’s nose and said angrily, “If you utter nonsense again, I’ll rip your skin off!” Grandpa was her most respected kin. She wouldn’t tolerate anyone speaking bad of him.

Lili covered her burning cheek and glared incredulously at Yan Xiruo, who had hit her once again. “Yan Xiruo, I’ll fight it out with you!” New and old hatred surged up. She couldn’t be bothered with the fact that Yan Xiruo held the identity of Mrs. Lu. Lili grabbed Yan Xiruo’s hair, raised her hand, and prepared to give her a tight slap.

Lili acted so quickly and fiercely that Yan Xiruo couldn’t avoid her. Just when she thought that that slap was about to land on her face, a deafening scream was heard.

“Ah…!”

A big palm had grabbed Lili’s wrist in mid-air forcefully. Soon after, a heart-wrenching pain traveled over. It hurt so much that her face turned pale and cold sweat was produced.

Yan Xiruo stared blankly at Ye Juemo, who had broken Lili’s wrist. She swallowed her saliva in fear.

Oh my! This man was too cold-blooded and violent!

Ye Juemo flung Lili away and took out a neatly folded blue handkerchief from his pocket. After wiping the hand that had grabbed Lili previously, he threw the handkerchief into the rubbish bin.

Lili fell to the ground unsteadily and was in a sorry state. The sisters behind her wanted to step forward and help Lili up. However, when they saw Ye Juemo’s cold face and sinister-looking eyes, they felt apprehensive in their hearts and didn’t dare to move the slightest bit.

Although they didn’t know Ye Juemo’s identity, the men who were invited to the cruise were bigshots whom they couldn’t afford to offend!

“Get out of my sight within three seconds!” Ye Juemo said coldly.

The sisters behind Lili quickly helped Lili up and left in a panic.

…

Yan Xiruo looked at the overbearing Ye Juemo. She touched her wrist in fear and anxiety. Should she feel fortunate? He actually didn’t break her wrist after she’d angered him so many times!
