634 Who Would Have Thought He Would Be So Arrogant?
Xi Rui crossed his arms, looking nonchalant.
“How am I slandering you?”
“Let me ask you, did you hug Miss Lu when you went into the water just now?”
“She’s dressed so thinly and she’s wet from the water. Did you have physical contact with her?”
“If there’s nothing between the two of you, why are you still hugging each other when you’ve already saved her? She’s even holding your hand.”
“Just now, she suddenly threw herself into your arms and said that she was afraid. If there was no affair between the two of you, would she crawl into your arms?”
“This means that it’s most likely a common occurrence for the two of you to cuddle in private.”
He was the best at throwing dirty water.
Moreover, he could tell that this Miss Lu was quite scheming. She must have taken a fancy to Tu Lihuan a long time ago, but the Tu family did not take a fancy to her.
Now, she wanted to break off the engagement and marry Tu Lihuan while she was drowning.
This ugly girl was so annoying, so of course he had to fulfill her wish so that she wouldn’t harm other good men.
Tu Lihuan’s face turned green and red. He was enraged. “Young Master Xi, you’re insulting our character. Miss Lu and I are innocent. There’s nothing going on between us.”
Xi Rui sneered. “You look like you’re trying to quibble. I can tell that you’re guilty!”
“Besides, what does it have to do with me whether you have an affair or not? You don’t have to explain to me.”
He glanced meaningfully at Miss Lu who was sitting on the sweeping floor and said, “You have to explain to the Lu family, to Miss Lu’s fiancé’s family.”
“And your hugging and embracing is the real breach of decorum, isn’t it?”
Everyone watching the show felt that Xi Rui was right.
Just now, Miss Lu suddenly threw herself into Young Master Tu’s arms and said that she was afraid. Her actions seemed very natural.
Moreover, he was in front of so many people. It was really shameless. This was an insult to his upbringing.
Since the man and the woman were not married yet, and they had an affair, why not get engaged? Why harm others?
Everyone was extremely sympathetic toward Miss Lu’s fiancé.
Miss Lu didn’t explain. Instead, she kept crying as if she had been wronged. She looked at Tu Lihuan with a hint of reluctance in her eyes.
This further confirmed that their relationship was not shallow.
Tu Lihuan wanted to explain, but at this moment, a lady walked over quickly with an angry look on her face.
She pointed at Miss Lu and said, “You’re shameless. How dare you hug another man in public behind my son’s back? Shameless.”
“Break off the engagement. Our family can’t afford to have a daughter-in-law like you.”
“After I go back today, I will return your betrothal gift. A fickle woman like you should marry into the Tu family.”
Xi Rui wasn’t surprised to see this lady.
Because he had asked someone to call this madam over.
It was a coincidence that Miss Lu’s fiancé’s mother happened to come to the temple to offer incense.
When Xi Rui found out, he had someone invite her over to watch the show.
From Miss Lu falling into the water to Tu Lihuan saving her, to Miss Lu throwing herself into her arms, this lady had seen everything.
He was doing a good deed. Otherwise, if Miss Lu continued to hook up with Tu Lihuan after marriage, her fiancé’s family would be in trouble.
Moreover, this ugly girl had dared to push Baili previously. Other than wanting to embarrass Baili, she also wanted to ruin Baili’s innocence.
This time she reaped what she sowed. Of course, she couldn’t let the Lu family break off the engagement for the sake of her fiancé’s family.
Instead, she wanted her fiancé’s family to say that she and Tu Lihuan were having an affair and that she was promiscuous and broke off the engagement. Only then would their reputations be even worse.
As long as the Tu family still had some dignity, they could only pinch their nose and marry Miss Lu.
Sure enough, Miss Lu’s expression changed. She cried aggrievedly and said, “I fell into the pond because of Xiao Baili. Young Master Tu only saved me, and there was no love between us. Don’t accuse us wrongly.”
Although she wanted to marry Tu Lihuan because of this, she didn’t want to ruin her reputation.
She hated Xiao Baili, who had just stepped aside and caused her to fall into the water, so she deliberately dragged Xiao Baili out.
Xiao Baili was originally watching a show, but she didn’t expect Miss Lu to drag her into it.
She walked forward and gave Miss Lu a few slaps.
“Miss Lu, let me tell you now, this is the consequence of slandering and making baseless accusations.”
“You were the one who wanted to push me from behind,” Xiao Baili continued with a cold face. “When I realized it, I moved a few steps to the side. Serve you right for falling into the water.”
“You caused someone to fall into the water, and now you’re framing me, the victim. Do you really think everyone here is a fool?”
“If you want to frame someone, you should find a better reason.”
“May I ask, if I stand in front of you and you’re behind me, how could I possibly push you into the water?”
This woman really thinks she’s a noble lady and can accuse anyone she wants.
My sister-in-law said that if someone bullies me, just fight back and give it back to them.
Miss Lu covered her face and looked at Xiao Baili in disbelief. “You b*tch, how dare you hit me.”
Xiao Baili raised her eyebrows. “Who are you? Why wouldn’t I dare to hit you?”
“You’re just a young lady from an aristocratic family in Northern City. Do you really think that you’re Princess Zhen from back then?”
“You framed me, so I hit you.”
“If you’re not convinced, then stand up and hit me!”
“Or you can go back and complain and ask your family to look for my brother and sister-in-law.”
She was certain that if anyone from the Lu family dared to come and cause trouble, her sister-in-law could beat them to death, and her brother could make Mr. Lu suffer.
Miss Lu choked. “You, you’re simply unreasonable.”
Xiao Baili sneered. “I don’t know who’s being unreasonable.”
She snorted coldly again. “If you don’t file a complaint, I will. You dare to accuse me today, this matter is not over.”
Sister-in-law said that if she was wronged outside, she must complain when she got home.
Miss Lu was speechless. She was the one who was slapped, and she hadn’t even said that she was going to complain.
She didn’t expect that Xiao Baili, who looked gentle, would have such a strong personality. Not only did she dare to hit her, but she also wanted to go home and complain.
For a moment, she did not know what to say.
She had also been shocked when she saw her fiancé’s mother suddenly appear and wanted to break off the engagement. That was why she had pushed the blame onto Xiao Baili.
She had thought that such a village girl would be very timid and would at most retort a few words. Who would have thought that she would be so arrogant?
Tu Yujiao didn’t expect Xiao Baili to be so arrogant and unyielding. She even dared to slap a young lady from an aristocratic family.
The key was that she had beaten someone up and still had the cheek to go back and complain. Her personality was too unruly.
As expected of the sister-in-law raised by that shrew Shi Qingluo. They were all equally unreasonable.
Tu Lihuan’s expression was also not too good. He had always thought that Xiao Baili had a gentle and virtuous personality. He did not expect her to be so hot-tempered.
This kind of woman was not easy to discipline.
Seeing Tu Lihuan staring at her with a complicated look, Xiao Baili looked at him unhappily and said, “What are you looking at? I merely hit Miss Lu.”
“If your heart aches, then you should avenge her. Others may be afraid of your Tu family, but I’m not.”
Xi Rui immediately stood beside Xiao Baili and said, “That’s right. It’s just the Tu family. They really think too highly of themselves.”
He even looked at Tu Lihuan with a provocative look. ” Baili hit your sweetheart. What are you going to do huh?”
