Chiang Xiao feels a chill upon learning of Nian Che's mother's death shortly after giving birth, heightening her unease about him. As they prepare to leave after obtaining Nian Chengcheng's letter, Nian Che halts them to reveal his bride, who turns out to be the long-absent Chen Zhu. He taunts them with plans for children and twisted family connections, but Meng Xinian swiftly calls in Ding Haijing to arrest Chen Zhu for suspected fraud and theft, sparking Nian Che's furious outburst.

Chiang Xiao was genuinely amazed by the way she called him Brother Che.

She felt no anger at all; confronting this incarnation of Chen Zhu, she discovered she couldn't muster any fury.

This lady had to be insane.

If possible, she sincerely hoped she wasn't the offspring of this woman.

Even as her child, nobody ought to assume they could tie her down with that relation, forcing her into misery.

She might simply act as if she were a kid lacking a mom!

Nian Che dashed forward to seize Chen Zhu.

Chiang Xiao raised her leg and struck him with a kick.

Nian Che hadn't anticipated her actually kicking him, and the impact sent him slamming into the wall, his head banging hard, making stars dance in his vision.

This abrupt turn shocked Old Lady Nian, Nian Tang, and Nian Mutong completely.

Thanks to this disruption, Ding Haijing managed to shove Chen Zhu through the doorway.

No matter the technique he employed, following her first scream, Chen Zhu stayed silent afterward.

Chiang Xiao had faith in Ding Haijing's skills.

Thus, she held zero concern regarding Chen Zhu's destination.

Staring at Nian Che, she didn't waver, returned to the table, grabbed a big bowl of soup, approached him, and dumped it right on his head.

“Ah!” Nian Mutong shrieked and tried to hurry over, yet Meng Xinian's icy glare froze her in place, filling her with fear.

Since some time had passed, the soup no longer scalded, yet it remained quite hot.

The entire bowl's contents drenched Nian Che's head, face, and clothes.

He yelled out, lifted his gaze, and glared at Chiang Xiao with pure malice in his eyes.

“Such a ruthless young woman—it's baffling who she resembles. Could Chen Zhu possibly have borne a child like you?”

“There's no need for you to fret over my heritage.”

Chiang Xiao eyed him steadily, “However, I must inform you, we're nothing like the old Meng Chaojun and Nian Chengcheng. Dare to pull any stunts again, and we'll thrash you until you're utterly helpless!”

Meng Xinian moved beside her, seized the soup bowl, and smashed it down on Nian Che's head in a single motion.

A sharp crack echoed.

Nian Che's head snapped sideways, and he blacked out.

“Little one, let's head out.”

Did they honestly believe he lacked the guts to strike?

Once he began swinging, this monster could merely cringe and clutch at his mug.

The pair spun around and departed, abandoning Nian Mutong who shook uncontrollably while staring at that so-called “true father.”

Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian exited the building and reached the vehicle, spotting Ding Haijing within, with Chen Zhu slumped unconscious in the rear.

“Time to leave.”

Meng Xinian handled the driving; Chiang Xiao, refusing to sit beside Chen Zhu, claimed the front passenger spot.

They headed to the residence, parked, exited, and entered. Ding Haijing observed their retreating figures and gave a shrug, obviously noting their aversion to even nearing this lady.

He truly couldn't fathom what misdeeds this woman had committed.

He hoisted the woman and brought her in.

“Where do you want me to place her?”

Chiang Xiao's tone was icy, “Just dump her on the floor, then douse her with some cold water to rouse her.”

Ding Haijing followed the order and tossed Chen Zhu down.

Before fetching the cold water, the jolt from the drop revived Chen Zhu.

“It hurts…” She promptly began rubbing her sore areas upon regaining consciousness.

Chiang Xiao positioned herself ahead, arms folded, observing her.

Chen Zhu was undeniably scarred beyond repair.

Despite the heavy makeup she applied, the marks on her features remained evident.

The cosmetics merely softened their visibility somewhat, failing to conceal them entirely, allowing a clear view still.
