Chapter 156: Banishment
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“I’m a daughter of the Qiao Family!!! I’m that little girl’s aunt… ah!” Qiao Wenjuan was roughly shoved by the guards and landed in the midst of the Wei Family.
“What are you doing?!” Qiao Wenjuan angrily shouted, her face flushed purple.
“Give them their identity tablet,” Zhang Yan ordered without care and then turned to the people from the Liu Family kneeling in front of the door. “Follow me inside.”
Family Head Liu acted as though he had been pardoned and inwardly relaxed. Then, he sent a kick at the groaning Second Liu. “Get up, you worthless punk! Kowtow a few more times to your uncle later! Look at all the trouble you cause our family day and night! If you don’t gain your uncle’s forgiveness today, I’ll exile you from the Liu Family and let you perish on your own!”
Causing a ruckus in the night and furiously knocking down the city gate—the disgraceful things that this worthless punk did! If it weren’t for him, perhaps their Liu Family would have been banished from Xijiu City by the City Lord already!
Second Liu pursed his lips and grievously stood up from the ground. However, he did not forget to look back at Wen Ruwan and said with a drooling smile, “Little Sis Wan, wait for me… Ah, hey… Dad, Dad, what are you doing???”
With his left ear pulled by Family Head Liu, Second Liu had his head twisted in pain as he followed his father inside the City Lord’s Estate while ceaselessly calling “Little Sis Wan.”
Coward! What a completely useless guy!
A miscalculation on her part for sacrificing her body and letting this coward grope her the whole journey. How aggravating!
Wen Ruwan resentfully glared at the back of Second Liu before curtsying toward a guard of the City Lord’s Estate and saying gently, “Brother, I’m the relative of that little girl just now and really want to visit my aunt. Can you give me some leeway please?”
Upon seeing how Wen Ruwan was pretty and gentle, and did not boorishly shout or make a commotion like some barbaric countrywoman like Qiao Wenjuan did, the guard of the City Lord’s Estate gained a favorable impression of Wen Ruwan and spoke politely to her.
“Miss, it’s not that we want to block you, but you heard what Miss Qiao said earlier. Elderly Lady Qiao isn’t receiving guests recently, so please don’t make things difficult for us.” The guard then secretly told Wen Ruwan, “Little Miss Qiao just now is a distinguished guest that our city lord told us to treat nicely and avoid offending.”
Wen Ruwan was bummed and displeased inside but still had to feign a gentle smile and docilely nodded and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble you to please escort us, Brother.”
“It’s my duty, it’s my duty.” The guard took a great liking to the gentle and obedient Wen Ruwan, so he purposefully dug through the pile of wooden tablets before handing one to her and said with a smile, “Although it’s still inside the shed area, there’s still good and bad lodging places. The corresponding spot for this wooden tablet is a fairly decent location in the shed area. Take care of your safety above all else when you are in the western district, Miss.”
Wen Ruwan thanked him insincerely, disdainful inside. So what if he gave her a fairly good location tablet after some selective choosing? It was still in a dive location like the lowly shed area! She did not expect that she, Wen Ruwan, would tragically end up living in the shed area…
The guard then tossed a handful of tablets to Qiao Wenjuan and her group. “These are your identity tablets. Each family will take one. Guards, escort them to the western district.”
Qiao Wenjuan immediately kicked the tablets and harshly screeched, making a scene, “Why should we have to go? My mother lives here, I want to find my mother! You don’t have the right to kick me out of here! Mother! Mother!!! Mother—”
