“Do the two of you think I’m a fool?” Dongfang Meng had not expected that they could even come up with such an excuse that was an insult to a person’s IQ. She stared at the crotch of Huo Ci’s pants unabashedly. “Huo Ci, even if you’re looking for an excuse, you should find a better one. Your daughter? Could it be that when you were a little kid, you could already father a child?”
This was ridiculous. Huo Ci had always been at loggerheads with Jun Shiyan. Moreover, he had often talked tough about dealing with him one day.
But what happened? He could not even touch a single finger of the other party! Even his eldest brother, Rong Yin, and the second son, Yan Yuanfei, could not do anything to Jun Shiyan! And he still wanted to deal with him? Perhaps in his next life!
“How do you know how old I have to be to have a child? Have you tried before?” Huo Ci looked at her arrogantly with a meaningful smile.
Dongfang Meng was, after all, a girl who had not even had a boyfriend before. She was only good at mouthing off. After being stared at with a humiliating gaze, she got mad and directly lashed out with the whip. “Huo Ci, you’re shameless!”
“No matter how shameless I am, I’ve never forced any woman to date me. Unlike your sister, who has an engagement, yet she’s unfaithful and comes out to find a man every day! How shameless!” Huo Ci spoke harshly without leaving her any face.
A girl meant nothing to him. In his eyes, there was no difference between a man and a woman. There were only people whom he liked and despised.
Ling Sheng’s eyes suddenly widened. What? The person who liked Third Master was Dongfang Meng’s older sister, also the fiancée who was engaged to Second Uncle?
“Huo Ci, your filthy mouth just can’t utter decent words! If Yan Yuanfei is allowed to like another woman, why can’t my sister like another man?!” As soon as Dongfang Meng finished speaking, she lashed out with her whip with all her might.
“Tsk tsk, Dongfang Meng, as a human, you have to speak in good conscience! Your older sister is the one who called off the engagement first, not my Second Brother!” Huo Ci grabbed the end of the whip looking like he couldn’t care less and tugged it forcefully. Then, he extended a finger and placed it in front of him to warn her not to get close. His lips curled up mockingly. “Given your looks, I wouldn’t even want you to bring me footbath water!”
“Huo Ci!” Dongfang Meng flew into a rage out of humiliation. She had always known that Huo Ci was a reckless person, but this was still the first time she had fought him head-on. Her face flushed with fury. “For a playboy like you, I hope you won’t even know how you die in the future.”
Huo Ci’s lips curled up in a smile as he shook her off while gripping the whip tightly. Then, he smiled roguishly and said, “I’m counting on your blessings! I’ll definitely die on a woman’s body. A beauty’s body.”
He emphasized the word “beauty” and even swept her with a meaningful look.
Dongfang Meng could not out-talk him, nor could she beat him. She was filled with a lot of pent-up anger. After all, she was just an unruly and willful lady. No woman could stand being talked about like that either! She pointed at Huo Ci angrily. “Huo Ci, just you wait!”
Upon seeing that she was about to leave, Huo Ci raised his eyebrows lazily and smiled. “Where are you going? Why? Are you planning to go back and call for reinforcements because you can’t out-talk me?”
Dongfang Meng had just reached the door when she bumped right into Jun Shiyan. She bellowed furiously, “Jun Shiyan, you’re a pervert! My sister must have been blind to fall in love with a beast like you!”
“Second Miss, what do you mean?” Upon seeing Huo Ci’s presence and Dongfang Meng’s indignant look, Jun Shiyan knew that Ling Sheng had not been bullied. His little girl was sitting on the sofa, looking as though she was watching a good show.
The current her was too soft-hearted. In the past, she would have kicked the troublemaker out without saying anything. She would not have waited for Huo Ci to take a shot at the person.
Dongfang Meng’s anger gradually rose, and she spoke sarcastically, “Third Master, what are you worried about? I, Dongfang Meng, have yet to be shameless enough to hit a child. Didn’t you say you were accompanying your wife? In order to reject my sister’s invitation, you really have endless excuses.”
“I’ve never lied. I’m indeed accompanying my family’s madam.” Jun Shiyan’s lips curled up slightly as he walked over to the young lady and pulled her into his embrace. “Let me introduce you. This is my wife.”
As she was annoyed to begin with, Dongfang Meng exploded completely when she heard his words. She bellowed with rage, “Jun Shiyan, do you people really think I’m an idiot? Both you and Huo Ci can just admit to playing 3P! There’s no need to find so many excuses!”
“Second Miss, please mind your language!” Jun Shiyan’s eyes abruptly turned frigid, and his whole body carried a sharp, murderous aura.
Huo Ci was faster. He grabbed Dongfang Meng’s wrist and threw her against the door. His narrow eyes were full of dangerous fire as he flung a slap toward her face. In the end, his palm stopped when it got very close to her face. He simply curled his lips into a cold smile. “Watch your mouth. That’s my daughter! Dongfang Meng, remember this well. If you spout nonsense again, my fists may land on you by ‘accident’!”
Dongfang Meng had not expected Huo Ci to make a move. She had not expected a profligate son to be so skillful at fighting either. Her face turned deathly pale all of a sudden. “Huo Ci, if you dare to do it, don’t be afraid of others talking about it!”
“An Yan,” Jun Shiyan called out.
Ling Sheng had not expected this to happen. Upon hearing his call, two young men in suits walked in. They were only about 20 years old. They were An Yan and Xu Xi.
The duo grabbed Dongfang Meng right away and kicked her knee, so she knelt onto the ground. She bellowed with defiant rage, “Jun Shiyan, what do you want? If you dare to touch me, the Dongfang Family won’t let you off.”
“Second Miss doesn’t know how to speak nicely. I think that even if I teach you how to talk, the members of the Dongfang Family won’t blame me.” Jun Shiyan’s smile was still courteous and gentle, but his eyes were very cold, so cold that she felt as though she had fallen into an ice cave.
Dongfang Meng had not expected that her loose tongue would lead her to trouble. Exactly who is this girl in front of her? She could cause the usually expressionless Third Master Jun to fly into a rage?
An Yan and Xu Xi were about to teach her a lesson.
Dongfang Meng was a person who knew how to behave in a delicate situation. She also knew the consequences of offending Jun Shiyan in the capital. She lifted her head to look up at him. “Third Master, I was wrong. I hope you can have mercy.”
“What did you do wrong, Second Miss?” Jun Shiyan cast a cold glance at her condescendingly, his tone so frosty that one could not help but shiver.
Hatred surged within Dongfang Meng’s heart, but she had no choice but to lower her head in someone else’s territory. “I shouldn’t have insulted your wife. I promise I won’t speak nonsense when I leave.”
Ling Sheng had never seen the Third Master like this before. He was so domineering that she could not help but squeal. He was even more overbearing than her father. She watched as Dongfang Meng admitted her mistake obediently.
“Ms. Dongfang, you’d better remember what you said. You’d better not even think about it,” Jun Shiyan warned her. “My wife has nothing to do with Sixth Master Huo!”
Upon hearing this, Huo Ci became unhappy. He bellowed angrily, “Third Old Jun, get lost! She’s my daughter!”
Jun Shiyan looked at him in amusement. “She was just joking. Sixth Young Master, don’t take it seriously. She’s been spoiled by me most times. She likes to fool around.”
