Chapter 937: Humiliation

Translator: Henyee Translations    Editor: Henyee Translations

Qiao Hongming grew increasingly irritated and forcefully slammed the table, bellowing, “No one invited you here! You came to our doorstep, and yet you’re still so particular? Take a good look at yourself in the mirror!”

First Madame Qiao felt a slight alleviation of embarrassment and chimed in, “Indeed!”

Just then, Qiao Hongxi returned.

Upon hearing that Qiao Xuan was present with her husband, Qiao Hongxi became livid. “Qiao Xuan?!”

Qiao Hongxi rushed into the main hall with a stern expression.

From a distance, he overheard his cousin’s angry voice, fueling his fury even more. This shameless creature!

His anger was not directed at Qiao Hongming but at Qiao Xuan. He firmly believed that it must have been Qiao Xuan and her husband who had offended the entire family.

As he stepped into the main hall, his gaze fell upon Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, and his expression changed. “What are you doing here?” Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were taken aback.

Qiao Xuan appeared startled, lowering her head and remaining silent.

Shao Yunduan swiftly moved to shield Qiao Xuan behind him, countering Qiao Hongxi. “It’s you who can’t afford the jade!”

Qiao Hongxi seethed with anger and snapped at Shao Yunduan, “You’re Qiao Xuan’s husband? How dare you speak to me in such a manner? Do you have any idea who I am? Qiao Xuan, why are you hiding? Come out this instant!”

Qiao Hongxi felt a mix of fury and excitement. This was retribution in action. These two wretches had constantly belittled him, and now it was time for him to teach them a lesson!

He found himself greatly surprised. Qiao Xuan seemed to have transformed after all these years.

She used to be timid and submissive, barely daring to breathe audibly in front of others. Had he not witnessed it himself, he wouldn’t have believed that the person standing before him today was the lowly concubine’s daughter.

He felt utterly humiliated by her!

Qiao Hongxi was consumed with a desire to thrash her to death!

“Qiao Xuan is my wife, show some respect!” Shao Yunduan’s irritation persisted upon hearing Qiao Hongxi’s disrespectful address towards Qiao

Xuan.

Qiao Hongxi sneered, “l am her elder brother, and that is how I treat her.

What’s your opinion? Don’t you know how to properly greet people?”

Shao Yunduan retorted, “Reciprocity is at the core of etiquette. Since you are my wife’s elder brother, I treat you the same way you treat me. You don’t appear to be a person of good manners either. Is everyone in the Qiao Family like this?” “Silence!” “How dare you!’

“What a disgrace!

The Qiao Family grew exasperated.

How audacious! How audacious!

How could a son-in-law of a concubine’s daughter dare to come to the Qiao Family and behave in such a manner!

While the Qiao Family may have lost their noble title, in their eyes, they still stood as an illustrious family far beyond his reach.

Did he truly believe that being a recommended man at the intermediate level made him so remarkable that he garnered praise from ignorant people in that small town of merely 500 meters?

They were insignificant within the capital!

To the Qiao Family, they were nothing!

How arrogant!

“Just leave this place!”

Qiao Hongxi bellowed so loudly that his voice cracked.

Shao Yunduan disdainfully remarked, “Why are you shouting like that? You’re no scholar!”
