Hitting Someone

Ning Xiang smiled. "Mom, you're spoiling me."

Qiao Yun caressed the back of her hand. "Is this considered pampering? You're a lovable child. Only a fool wouldn't like you."

As Qiao Yun spoke, she glanced at Zhao He.

Zhao He smiled stiffly and said, "Old Madam Fu, you've misunderstood. Of course, I like Ning Xiang too. It's just that you can't dote on a child blindly. Otherwise, she'll pick up bad habits. When the time comes, you won't be able to control her in the future."

Her second daughter-in-law looked at her with a faint smile. "Oh really now? Are you teaching my mother how to do things? Or are you hinting at something?"

Zhao He waved her hand. "That's not what I meant. I just want to remind you that Ning Xiang is a complicated child. You should pay more attention to her. Otherwise, you might live to regret it."

The third daughter-in-law said impatiently, "Alright, you've seen her. If there's nothing else, then get lost. Don't waste our time."

Although the Ning family's status and family background were far inferior to the Fu family's, they were a part of high society in town. However, the third daughter-in-law was speaking to them as though they were beggars asking for food scraps.

Ning Zhuo was so angry that his face turned red. "Who do you think we are? Ning Xiang hit my big brother and even fed my sister dirty food. How could we let things slide so easily? No way!"

Ning Xiang said slowly, "You're not here to ask me to apologize, are you?"

They did come with this in mind, and they wanted to use Ning Xiang's actions to squeeze something out of the Fu family.

In the Ning family's mind, the Fu family probably hated Ning Xiang. If there was a chance to punish her, they would definitely pounce on it. Now that Ning Xiang had caused a scandal, they should be willing to spend money to cover up and avoid disaster.

Sadly, things were completely different from what they had imagined!

Ning Feng felt a little unconfident inside, but he still said with an arrogant front, "Ning Lian is still in the ward. Kneel down and kowtow to my brother three times before coming with us to find Lianlian. You will kowtow until she forgives you!"

Ning Zhuo pretended to be kind and advised her, "Lianlian isn't as vicious as you. She'll probably let you get up as soon as you kneel down, so don't be afraid."

These words almost made the Fu family members laugh out loud.

The eldest sister-in-law pinched her arm. "Ouch! It really hurts, so this isn't a dream. How dare you take that tone at us?"

The second sister-in-law sneered. "You're just a bunch of trash. Don't you dare touch Xiangxiang!"

Her third sister-in-law covered her mouth and whispered, "They are ridiculous idiots."

The people from the Ning family were treated as a joke.

The expressions of the three brothers from the Ning family turned very awkward. It was difficult for Zhao He to show a dignified smile. She said stiffly, "It's just an apology. There's no need to speak so harshly."

Ning Xiang took a step forward and said calmly, "I have a clear conscience about what happened to Ning Zheng. If he hadn't cheated on his girlfriend and apologized obediently, he wouldn't have been beaten so badly. As for Ning Lian…"

Ning Xiang sneered and tucked Zhao He's scattered hair behind her ear. It was a very gentle action, but it made Zhao He's hair stand on end.

"… She interrupted my meal and knocked my ribs to the ground. I did not like wasting food, so I kindly treated her to a meal. What's wrong with that?"

Zhao He was speechless for a moment. She could only stare at Ning Xiang in fear.

Ning Xiang's hand stopped on her neck. It was very light, but it made her feel like she would be strangled to death in the next second.

This was the cold and ruthless side of Ning Xiang that she had never seen before.

Ning Feng sensed Zhao He's fear and pushed Ning Xiang away. He glared at her. "Why are you so close? Are you trying to harm my mother?"

Ning Xiang chuckled. "Why would I? I'm a law-abiding citizen."

Ning Zheng suddenly recalled how Ning Xiang had challenged the burly men under the neon lights last night. He could not help but say, "You hit someone just because of a disagreement. What you said makes me want to vomit!"

Ning Feng glared at Ning Xiang. "I think there's no point talking to her. We can just take her to the hospital to see her sister. If it weren't for her, her sister wouldn't have trouble eating!"

As Ning Feng spoke, he started to pull Ning Xiang.

"What the? Are you treating us like we don't exist?"

The eldest sister-in-law had the hottest temper. When Ning Feng pulled Ning Xiang around, she kicked him.

"Have you no respect? How dare you bully Ning Xiang in front of us? You're courting death!"

The eldest sister-in-law was very strong, but Ning Feng was a young man after all. He quickly grabbed her wrist. Since she had a formidable husband, he only grabbed it and did not move further.
