Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Encountered Obstruction 4_1

In an instant, Mrs. Xia’s smile froze on her face; she bit her tongue, not understanding why her sister-in-law suddenly became hostile.

Xia Ningxing’s expression also turned unfriendly as she slightly narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing the other party.

"Shufang, what’s gotten into you!" Seeing his daughter embarrass his future daughter-in-law, Mr. Xia slammed the table and glared at her, his mustache bristling with anger.

Mrs. Xia was also annoyed, "Shufang, you’re not a child anymore, why don’t you watch what you say and consider the occasion!"

After speaking, she quickly turned to offer an apologetic look to Mrs. Xia and Xia Ningxing, "I’m really sorry, my daughter has been spoiled by both her father and me, please don’t take it to heart."

Now that the future mother-in-law had apologized, what more could Mrs. Xia say? She could only let it go for now, "It’s, it’s fine."

"Dad, Mom, are you actually scolding me for this whore?" Xia Shufang not only didn’t back down but escalated the situation, slamming the table and pointing at Mrs. Xia, "Don’t you recognize this woman? She’s Lin Lan, the wife from Peach Blossom Village’s Xia Jianren’s family!"

"Shufang, you’ve been in school and might not be aware, but she divorced Xia Jianren last year and is now single," Mrs. Xia certainly recognized Lin Lan; their families were from the same village originally, so how could she not?

She tugged at her daughter and glared at her, signaling her to calm down immediately.

"What single? She’s clearly a worn-out shoe, how could she be worthy of marrying my brother? A toad lusting after a swan’s flesh!" Xia Shufang completely ignored her mother’s silent cues and started cursing wildly, insisting on causing a scene.

"I’ll make this clear today; I will never allow a worn-out shoe like her to marry my brother, she’s not worthy! Disgusting!" she yelled again.

Mrs. Xia’s pupils involuntarily dilated as she felt an overwhelming inability to breathe, her entire body trembling like a sieve, experiencing extreme embarrassment.

She had long been aware that divorced women face prejudice when remarrying, and had even prepared for it, but she never imagined the humiliation would be so intense when it came.

"Xia Shufang!" At that moment, Xia Jiehao’s eyes reddened with urgency as he raised his hand and slapped her, "You’re a university student, educated in high culture, do you speak to your future sister-in-law like this?"

Calling her a worthless whore, a worn-out shoe—phrases that a respectable unmarried girl would never utter, yet she cursed with such fluency.

Xia Jiehao’s slap caused one half of Xia Shufang’s face to immediately swell.

"Brother... brother... you actually hit me!?" Xia Shufang looked at him in disbelief, her eyes quickly reddening as tears began to swirl.

She sobbed, almost on the verge of collapsing, unable to believe that the brother who had doted on her since childhood would hit her over a ’worn-out shoe.’

"Brother, you’re going too far. I’m trying to prevent you from marrying this worn-out shoe for your own good, yet you actually hit me. What on earth is so lovable about this filthy shoe? My best friend has liked you for over ten years, she’s pure and also went to university, why can’t you like her!"

"Shut up!"

Xia Jiehao’s teeth chattered as he grit his teeth, his gums nearly bleeding. Initially feeling guilty and regretful for impulsively hitting her, his anger surged once more upon hearing her continue to curse.

Had he not forcefully restrained himself, he would have certainly slapped her again right then.

"Brother, I don’t care, my sister-in-law can only be my best friend. If you dare to marry this worn-out shoe, I will die right here for you to see today!" Xia Shufang smeared her face with tears, and from somewhere, she brandished a knife against her own throat, her bloodshot eyes looking terrifying.
