C300 One Against Two
Once the old man had left, Chiang Shuru, who was sitting at the side, immediately became lively. Looking at Soong Shiyan's slightly haggard appearance, Chiang Shuru spoke with a bit of ridicule: "Tsk tsk, I knew it, some wild girls simply cannot stay in the Huo Family for too long — — As I expected, retribution came too quickly!"
Soong Shiyan raised her head and looked coldly at Chiang Shuru. She did not say a word.
Seeing that Soong Shiyan did not refute her, Chiang Shuru got even more excited. She looked at Soong Shiyan and continued to mock her. "In the past, some people relied on the support of the old man to raise their tails to the sky, only using their noses to look at others — — Now ah … I can only say that God has eyes. "
"Chiang Shuru, have you said enough?" Soong Shiyan said coldly as she looked at Chiang Shuru with her arms crossed across her chest.
Seeing Soong Shiyan call her name directly, Chiang Shuru was momentarily stunned. Especially after seeing Soong Shiyan's cold eyes, the words that Chiang Shuru wanted to say were stuck in her throat. She couldn't go down, and she couldn't go up.
"Jing Sung, you're no longer Heir of the Huo Family. How dare you talk to us like that?" Seeing that Chiang Shuru's words made it difficult for him to hold on, Huo Chenglieh felt that he had lost a bit of face, so he said this to Soong Shiyan with a domineering expression.
"Master Huo, I'll teach you a lesson. Can you open a dyeing workshop? Anyone with a discerning eye would know that the most worthless person in the Huo Family is none other than you — and now, you still have the nerve to say these things in front of me? " Soong Shiyan said coldly when she saw Huo Chenglieh speaking up for Chiang Shuru.
Seeing Soong Shiyan rejecting his words directly, Huo Chenglieh felt that he lost all face. He looked at Soong Shiyan with anger.
Chiang Shuru finally regained her senses, looked at Soong Shiyan, and leisurely said, "Jing Sung, no matter what, we are still your elders — look at yourself, you are disrespectful to your elders. If others were to find out, they would definitely say that you have no upbringing! Although you are not someone from the Huo Family, in the eyes of outsiders, you are still Heir of the Huo Family. By doing this, you are humiliating us because of our Huo Family! "
"Your Huo Family?" Hearing this, a trace of ridicule surfaced on Soong Shiyan's face. She looked at Chiang Shuru and coldly said, "Chiang Shuru, just who gave you the courage to shamelessly say that you are a member of the Huo Family? Back then, if you had not shamelessly given birth to a child and shamelessly begged the old man to allow you in, you probably would not even be able to reach the gates of Huo Family! "
Seeing Soong Shiyan poking her scar in front of a bastard like Lih Jinhsing, Chiang Shuru was like a cat whose tail has been stepped on. She stood up abruptly, pointed at Soong Shiyan's nose and said angrily, "Jing Sung, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself. Do you really think you're some rich girl or noble lady? What right do you have to say those words in front of me? "
Seeing Chiang Shuru stand up, Soong Shiyan did not move. She remained seated on the same spot, arms crossed over her chest, and said with a sneer: "What do you think your identity is? Chiang Shuru, didn't you come from the night arena? How can I be qualified to talk to a woman like you who doesn't have a clean body? "
Hearing that, Lih Jinhsing, who was sitting beside Soong Shiyan, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Upon seeing this, Huo Chenglieh hurriedly glared at him, causing him to hurriedly suppress his laughter. Lih Jinhsing nodded and really suppressed his laughter. However, he couldn't hide the smile at the corner of his eyes.
Chiang Shuru had originally wanted to mock and ridicule Soong Shiyan, but now she was at a loss for words due to Soong Shiyan's rebuttal. She was a little angry, so she could only ask Huo Mingyang, who was beside her, for help. However, Huo Mingyang was only able to see Soong Shiyan's every move and wasn't in the mood to help Chiang Shuru at all.
Helpless, Chiang Shuru could only ask Huo Chenglieh for help.
Huo Chenglieh had just lost face in front of Lih Jinhsing by Soong Shiyan. Now that Chiang Shuru had pleaded for help, he naturally stood up.
"Jing Sung, what qualifications do you think you have to show off in front of me? "Now, you are no longer Heir of the Huo Family. Speaking of you, you are just an ordinary woman with no family background — I don't even need to move my finger to make you suffer a miserable fate!" Huo Chenglieh looked at Soong Shiyan and threatened with a cold tone.
Hearing that, Soong Shiyan showed a disdainful smile. She looked at Huo Chenglieh and said with a serious face, "How strong do you think you are? As the saying goes, a piece of jade cannot be cut, and cannot be made — Master Huo, do you know why you can't be made? "
Seeing Soong Shiyan's serious face, Huo Chenglieh couldn't help but answer, "Why?"
"Because you're not even jade. You're just a stinky, hard stone in the latrine. No matter how hard you cut it, it won't turn into a beautiful jade." Soong Shiyan looked at Huo Chenglieh with a hint of sneer in her eyes.
Hearing that, Huo Chenglieh realized that he had accidentally fallen into Soong Shiyan's trap. He stood up angrily, clenching his fists tightly.
"Hey, Master Huo, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to hit a woman? However, I advise Master Huo not to be impulsive — after all, I have learned quite a bit of martial arts before. If I had been on guard duty before, Master Huo, you might have to spend the new year in the hospital. If you were any more miserable Master Huo, you might have to spend the rest of the year in the urns. " Soong Shiyan said with a disdainful smile.
Looking at Soong Shiyan's disdainful expression, Huo Chenglieh felt as if his pride was crushed by Soong Shiyan.
Just as Huo Chenglieh was about to make a move, he heard Lih Jinhsing, who was beside Soong Shiyan, shout, "Dad — are you really going to make a move on a woman?"
Huo Chenglieh finally regained his consciousness after hearing Lih Jinhsing's voice. He retracted his hand in embarrassment and wanted to explain to Lih Jinhsing, but he was interrupted by Liu Tie beside him.
"Dad, Mom, you guys go back first!" Huo Mingyang looked at the two of them and said helplessly.
Chiang Shuru saw the helplessness in Huo Mingyang's expression. She originally wanted to reject him, but in the end she turned around and left bitterly. It was just that he pitied the servant beside her. He reckoned that he would be affected by Chiang Shuru's anger along the way.
Huo Chenglieh didn't take Huo Mingyang's words to heart. Seeing this, Huo Mingyang could not help but feel a little disappointed in his heart. He squeezed out a bitter smile and turned his head away, no longer looking at Huo Chenglieh.
Huo Chenglieh wanted to argue with Soong Shiyan, but this time, Lih Jinhsing said, "Dad, just listen to Huo Mingyang, go home early – Jing Sung and you are making a ruckus here, and it was all heard by the servant at home. If this gets out, your image will be ruined. "
Hearing this, Huo Chenglieh felt that Lih Jinhsing's words were reasonable, so he spat out a few harsh words: "Jing Sung, let me tell you, from now on, you will no longer have the old man nor Huo Family to support you. It's best for you to keep your tail between your legs — when something happens, don't come and beg us to help you."2
Then, Huo Chenglieh left in a huff.
