Chen Li, who had been keeping quiet, could not sit still any longer. She would never allow anyone to insult her daughter like this. Moreover, Chen Xin and Yun Xi were blood relatives separated by a generation. How could he make it into a ridiculous husband-and-wife relationship!
Therefore, she walked to Yun Xi’s side and looked at Chen Xin coldly. She said, “I will not give up that piece of land. Also, no one can have my daughter!”
Chen Li’s action immediately shocked everyone in the room, including Chen Sheng and Liu Wei. They did not expect such a timid woman to speak up for the sake of her child.
Chen Xin looked as if he had been struck by lightning. He never thought that the little beauty he was flirting with was actually his little niece.
If he had known that it would end like this, no matter how much of a bastard he was, he would not have said such vulgar words. It was such a messy situation.
Chen Xin was stunned for a moment and started laughing awkwardly.
“My, this joke is inappropriate, huh. How could I possibly have feelings for a little girl like you? You’re just thinking too much.”
“Like father, like son. They already have someone and are still looking at other girls.” Yun Xi was a little uncomfortable with Chen Xin’s words. However, she quickly retorted, scolding both the old and young man at once.
Hearing Yun Xi’s insults, Chen Sheng and Liu Wei’s expressions changed. Especially Chen Sheng. He was already an old man in his sixties. How could he withstand Yun Xi’s insults?
“I’m warning you. You’re in my house now, so don’t go overboard with your words. The land is still in your hands. As long as you hand the land over obediently, I will ignore all your insults to me today. Such a thing never happened. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite.” Chen Sheng glared at Yun Xi as he threatened her.
However, Yun Xi was not afraid of him at all. Instead, she smiled contemptuously and said, “So, What are you planning to do?”
Yun Xi did not believe that the descendant of a veteran who had participated in the War of Resistance would do anything outrageous. At least, he probably would not sit in front of the main gate like Jing Yu’s family while they threw a tantrum and caused everyone to point fingers at them.
However, Yun Xi miscalculated this time. Chen Sheng gave Chen Xin and Liu Wei a look, and the two of them immediately understood. It seemed that they had already discussed this before Chen Li’s arrival.
Liu Wei walked to the door and locked the main door of the house, while Chen Xin walked to the back and took out a bundle of ropes that he had prepared in advance.
There was still a difference in physical strength between a woman and a man. In a few moments, Yun Xi and the others were subdued by Chen Xin and Chen Sheng. The three of them were tied tightly to the chairs by the bundle of ropes.
“I was trying to be nice with you guys, but you guys did not seem to accept my courtesy. Looks like I’ll have to be tough then. If you had just agreed, you might not have to suffer now.” Liu Wei muttered.
“What are you doing?” A strong sense of unease welled up in Yun Xi’s heart as the situation unfolded before her. She had experienced this in her previous life.
That painful experience was still lingering in her mind. That feeling of powerlessness and suffocation had always troubled her. She was afraid that this would happen again in this life, and that her suffering would also involve her family members.
“I advise you to obediently sign the land transfer agreement. I don’t want to hurt you. After that, we can still live together in peace.” Chen Xin held a dagger in his hand, as he pointed it at the three people who were tied up one after another.
“Don’t you want the land? If there’s anything, just come at me. My children have nothing to do with this matter,” Chen Li shouted.
Her voice was very sharp, making everyone’s eardrums ring.
Chen Xin was also afraid that Chen Li’s shout would attract the attention of the surrounding people, so he wanted her to quickly shut up.
“Shut up! If you continue to make a ruckus, I’ll immediately cut her face. Let’s see if you still dare to make a ruckus.” Chen Xin used the dagger to make a gesture on Yun Xi’s face, scaring Chen Li so much that she did not dare to say a word.
“Alright, I’ll sign it. We’ll sign it right now. I don’t want this piece of land anymore. I’ll transfer it all to you. I only hope that you can release my son and daughter.” Seeing that the dagger was only a few millimeters away from Yun Xi’s skin, Chen Li panicked. She shouted loudly that she agreed to transfer this piece of land.
