Chapter 432: Chapter 432: Your Sister’s Happiness, Just Worth a Million (3)_1
When Liu Yuhan, Cao Mengqi, and Tian Jinlei arrived, they saw Xiao Yanlei, who had been beaten, standing face to face with Situ Jin, his face full of rage, ready to throw a few more punches at Xiao Yanlei. Situ Xin, holding Baibai, stood expressionlessly behind Situ Jin and Xiao Muli, along with Yu Qihao.
"What are you doing? Why are you beating my brother Yan Lei?" Liu Yuhan ran to Xiao Yanlei’s side, protective as a hen with her chick, as soon as she saw Xiao Yanlei being beaten.
Situ Jin and Xiao Muli didn’t recognize Liu Yuhan and were unaware of the grudges between her and Situ Xin. In fact, in Situ Xin’s view, there was no bad blood between the two, but Liu Yuhan saw things very differently.
"Why? Because your brother dared to entertain thoughts of hitting on my Baby. And to think such filthy thoughts, too. Hmph, as if someone like you could even dream of my Baby," Situ Jin stated, addressing the first part to Liu Yuhan and the latter to Xiao Yanlei.
"Baby? Who’s that?" Liu Yuhan was completely clueless about the Baby Situ Jin mentioned. "Besides, even if my brother had some thoughts about this Baby, that would be Baby’s good fortune," Liu Yuhan thought. Being noticed by her brother, Xiao Yanlei, the young grandson of the Xiao Family, was a blessing from heaven.
"You’re talking crap. If it weren’t for the fact that you’re a woman, I would beat you up too," Situ Jin waved his fist at Liu Yuhan.
"You wouldn’t dare. If you lay a hand on me, I’ll have my grandfather bring people over to arrest you all," Liu Yuhan boasted with the confidence that having the Xiao Family behind her meant she had nothing to fear.
"Xiao Yanlei, your Xiao Family is really something, aren’t they? So you can just arrest people without any reason now. You really can’t separate public from private interests," Situ Jin said with a smirk at Xiao Yanlei.
Xiao Yanlei wanted to retort during his confrontation with Situ Jin but paused when his eyes fell on Situ Xin standing behind Situ Jin. "Situ Xin, Situ Jin," he repeated the names in his mind.
"Could this Situ Xin be the same Situ Xin from the Situ Family?" Xiao Yanlei had certainly heard the name Situ Xin before, but he had never seen her. It was Xiao Yanlei’s misfortune that on the few occasions when Situ Xin accompanied her family to banquets, he coincidentally had other engagements and missed the chance to see her. Besides, the Xiao Family and the Situ Family, as well as the Loo Family, were completely at odds. Even though Old Master Xiao envied the treasure that was Situ Xin in the other families, he didn’t go around talking about her all the time like Wei Quan’s family patriarch did. His family didn’t have any photos of Situ Xin either.
The only time Xiao Yanlei remembered hearing the name Situ Xin from his family’s patriarch was a warning directed at him and his brother Xiao Yanqin not to provoke Situ Xin.
So when Xiao Yanlei heard his sister Liu Yuhan complained that her boyfriend was stolen by Situ Xin, he never once imagined that the Situ Xin she referred to was the same Situ Xin of the esteemed Situ Family— the very Situ Xin his grandfather had expressly stated they shouldn’t offend.
Xiao Yanlei’s gaze was moving back and forth between Situ Xin and Situ Jin. The more he looked, the more unsettled he became, while he failed to catch a single word of the argument between his sister Liu Yuhan and Situ Jin. It was only when Situ Jin looked at him with a sardonic gaze and called out his name that he snapped back to attention.
"Alright, Yuhan, stop making a scene. Come on, let’s go back," Xiao Yanlei said, pulling Liu Yuhan to leave. At this moment, Xiao Yanlei had no mood to deal with his sister’s nonsense. He felt that he had to leave as soon as possible; only by leaving could he feel at ease.
"Brother Yan Lei, what are you doing? You didn’t even pull me. That person bullied me. I want grandpa to have him arrested. I—" Liu Yuhan didn’t bother to read other people’s faces. It could be said that she only paid attention to her grandfather’s expressions; she disregarded everyone else’s.
Liu Yuhan was completely oblivious to the impatience at the bottom of her brother Yan Lei’s eyes and kept rattling on.
"I told you to shut up. If you dare say another word, do you believe I’ll send you to the police station and have you locked up?" Right now, Xiao Yanlei wished he could just gag his sister’s mouth.
"Brother Yan Lei, you... You actually took that vixen’s side against that man to scold me. I’m going to tell grandpa that not only did you not listen to him, you took this vixen’s side and actually helped her. You, you..." Liu Yuhan yelled at Xiao Yanlei, tears falling, while pointing a finger at him and scolding him non-stop.
"You TMD shut up. Let’s go." Xiao Yanlei had initially felt a bit guilty for being so fierce with Liu Yuhan, but after hearing her latest remarks, any sense of remorse evaporated.
"I’m not leaving. No way."
"Do you want to leave or not, believe it or not I will carry you out." Xiao Yanlei and Liu Yuhan were struggling, one wanting to leave and the other refusing to go.
Situ Xin watched the drama unfold for a while before she leisurely spoke up, "I haven’t even agreed to let you leave, so how can you just go?" Situ Xin slowly raised her head to look at the siblings still pulling at each other and said, "Until this matter is clarified, none of you are leaving."
"You vixen, who do you think you are? Just because you say we can’t leave, we have to stay? Hmph. I don’t believe it. I’m leaving right now. What can you possibly do to me?" With that, Liu Yuhan broke free from Xiao Yanlei’s grip, with her head held high and chest out, she walked towards the school gate.
Situ Jin, upon hearing Liu Yuhan calling Situ Xin a "vixen" over and over, felt the rage bubble up inside him. Without caring that Liu Yuhan was a woman, he was about to rush forward to give her a beating and vent Situ Xin’s frustration.
The moment Situ Jin moved, Situ Xin stopped him, "Brother, Muli, both of you stay put and don’t move. This matter is between them and me. I can handle it on my own." Situ Xin had her own considerations. Situ Jin and Xiao Muli, after all, were military academy students and were destined for a future in the military and political circles. If news of them hitting a woman today got out, it would not bode well for either of them.
