This villain has become a ghost

Chapter 148 Protection

The young master of the Su family pointed at her and was speechless for a moment. He had no words to say and could only angrily say: "You, you, you..."

Seeing that his young master was angry, the servant beside him stood up with a ferocious look on his face.

"How dare you talk back to the young master, you little bitch!"

The servant raised his hand and slapped the girl hard on the face. The girl fell to the ground, blood flowing from the corner of her mouth, and her cheeks instantly became red and swollen.

The slap was so hard that it frightened Young Master Su who was standing by and he looked at his servant in disbelief.

The crowd was in a commotion, talking a lot, but no one dared to speak too loudly.

Yue Liuyun was furious when she saw this scene and could no longer bear it. She pushed through the crowd and stepped forward, blocking the five girls. She glared at him and said in a deep voice:

"Young Master Su, don't go too far!"

Several girls recognized Yue Liuyun and looked at each other, and their worry and tension were reduced a little.

Several other people helped the beaten girl up. Yue Liuyun looked back to check her injuries and saw that her cheeks were severely red and swollen, with natural tears in her eyes, but she pursed her lips stubbornly and stared at Young Master Su with an unyielding look in her eyes.

Young Master Su turned to look at Yue Liuyun, looking her up and down. Seeing that she was well dressed, he knew she was definitely not a lady from an ordinary family, but he had never seen her before.

The servant could also see that she was of unusual status, and for a moment he did not dare to act rashly, for fear of offending the powerful and influential people he did not know about.

He continued arrogantly, "Who are you? But you're smarter than those guys. You actually recognized me."

Yue Liuyun smiled as if he had heard something funny, and said slowly:

"I've long heard that Su Xi, the young master of the Su family, is spoiled and a well-known playboy in Dongdu. But... is this something to be proud of?"

The young man was taller than her and looked down at her, but she looked at him coldly without any fear or panic.

Su Xi was so angry that his face turned red, and he sneered: "So what? No matter how useless I am, I am still better than you short-sighted women!"

Yue Liuyun said calmly:

"What a short-sighted man! Just now, I said that the young master didn't even know the laws of Daying. I wonder where your broad-mindedness lies, young master Su?"

She paused, then continued slowly, "I wonder... if your father and brother knew that Young Master Su not only didn't understand the Su family's traditions, but also openly bullied the examinees in Qingyunzhai, what would their reaction be? Would they indulge you?"

Su Xi felt guilty when he heard this. He knew that his father and brother hated him the most when he caused trouble outside. If they really knew what happened today, he would definitely be punished.

He swallowed his saliva and said in a timid tone, "Don't think I'll be afraid of you just because you bring up my father and brother! I'm not afraid!"

Yue Liuyun looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Really? Then I'll tell your father about this and see if Young Master Su can still be so stubborn."

Su Xi glared at her fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "Who...are you?"

"Guess?" she raised her eyebrows.

After a while, Su Xi suddenly thought of something, narrowed his eyes, and said with a sarcastic smile:

"I heard that it wasn't just these lowly women who participated in the Spring Examination. There were also two young ladies from aristocratic families who participated. You... couldn't be one of them, could you?"

Yue Liuyun said calmly, "This has nothing to do with Young Master Su."

When Su Xi heard this, the sarcasm on his face became even stronger, as if he had already confirmed Yue Liuyun's identity. He sneered:

"So it's true. The world is really going downhill. Even women dare to participate in the Spring Examination. What a bunch of unpresentable people who don't do what they are supposed to do. It's really hilarious."

Yue Liuyun's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this. She responded calmly:

"Young Master Su is wrong. His Majesty has already ordered the revision of the laws of Daying, granting women the right to participate in the Spring Examination. We are simply following the law, so what's wrong with that? Young Master Su, on the other hand, openly caused trouble in Qingyunzhai, not only insulting the examinees but also assaulting them. I wonder what your father and brother would think if they knew of this behavior."

Su Xi was speechless after hearing her words, but his heart was burning with rage. He stared at Yue Liuyun with a vicious look, as if he wanted to eat her alive.

However, Yue Liuyun remained neither humble nor overbearing. She met his gaze fearlessly, raised her eyebrows, and chuckled softly, "Meeting is fate... I'd like to write a poem for Young Master Su, comparing it to the willow branch is quite apt."

Su Xi squeezed out a word from between his teeth and said coldly: "Young Master, I want to hear your opinion, based on your woman's opinion, what kind of ivory can be spit out from a dog's mouth."

Yue Liuyun sneered and recited a poem from his memory, saying slowly:

"The tangled branches have not yet turned yellow, yet they are driven wild by the east wind. They know how to use the flying petals to cover the sun and moon, but they don't know that there is clear frost in the world."

Even if Su Xi was uneducated, he could still tell that she was mocking him. He immediately became furious, his face flushed with anger, and without even bothering to order his servants, he raised his hand to hit Yue Liuyun.

However, before his hand fell, Yue Liuyun grabbed it firmly.

Yue Liuyun swung his hand hard, and Nangong Wanqing took the opportunity to flick a stone, which hit his knee. Su Xi staggered and fell on the table beside him, smashing all the tableware to the ground with a crackling sound.

Yue Liuyun made a "tsk" sound.

This is breaking the defense, brother, you are too mentally fragile.

Her eyes accidentally glanced in the direction of Nangong Wanqing, and she saw her pretending to be stupid and looking at the sky, as if nothing had happened, which made her feel funny.

The servant was startled and quickly helped him up.

"Ah!" Su Xi climbed up in pain, eyes wide open, and said angrily, "You!"

"Hurry up and teach her a lesson! Come on!" He quickly turned around and said to the servants and the guards following behind him.

"Yes!"

They immediately surrounded her, approaching her aggressively, ready to fight.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Nangong Wanqing could no longer hold back. Her eyes curled slightly, her gaze became stern, and she clenched the dagger hidden in her sleeve, ready to attack.

However, suddenly, a figure passed through the crowd at an extremely fast speed, kicked the leading guard away, and drew his sword, pointing it directly at Su Xi.

The man had a fierce look in his eyes, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his fair face looked extremely gloomy as he glanced at everyone present.

Yue Liuyun was surprised and looked at the person standing in front of him.

It turned out to be Yanagisawa Oon.

When Su Xi saw Liu Zeyin, his face suddenly turned pale and his pupils trembled.

General Qiming?

The servants and guards behind him, seeing Liu Zeyin's sword, involuntarily took a few steps back and dared not get any closer.
