"Snapped--"

Jiang Buli slammed the table and shouted angrily, "That's enough! Jiang Jun, look at yourself now. You don't look like a lady from a noble family at all! Go back to your room! Don't step out of the door without my permission!"

Jiang Jun was so frightened by her father's slap and scolding that her face turned pale. She looked at Jiang Buli in disbelief, her eyes full of grievance and unwillingness.

"Father, in your eyes, am I even inferior to this bitch? Why should she compare to me? Isn't it just marrying a short-lived guy? What's so great about that!"

"Shut up!" Jiang Buli's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he was obviously furious. "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll really be rude! Go back to your room and don't embarrass yourself here!"

"My Lord, you scared Yun'er! Is it worth it for you to be so angry just for that bitch Jiang Song?" Seeing this, Du Shulan hurried forward to protect Jiang Yun and complained dissatisfiedly.

"Women's opinions!" Jiang Buli glared at Du Shulan. "Today is the day Song'er and Changyan return home. Look at what a mess you've made! How will the Xie family view our Jiang family?"

"You only care about the Xie family's opinion, but don't you care about your own daughter's life or death?" Du Shulan retorted, "Didn't you see that it was Jiang Song, that bitch, who provoked Yun'er first?"

"It's all your fault for being so indulgent. Now a lowly concubine's daughter dares to ride on the head of the legitimate daughter. If this gets out, will our Jiang family still have any face?"

Jiang Buli was so angry at Du Shulan's unreasonable behavior that he had a headache. He waved his hand and signaled the servants to take Jiang Jun back to the room.

"Father, I won't leave! I want to make things clear today!" Jiang Jun was a man who would not turn back until he hit the wall. At this moment, he was overwhelmed by anger and struggled and refused to leave.

She glared at Jiang Song, her eyes full of resentment, "Bitch, what are you showing off for? You just picked up my unwanted worn-out shoes!"

"Do you think Xie Changyan really likes you? He's just desperate and looking for someone to bring him happiness! Once he dies, you'll be a widow. Let's see how you cope with it then!"

Jiang Jun's words were sharp and merciless.

Jiang Song sneered and glanced at Jiang Jun indifferently. His eyes seemed to contain thousands of words, but in the end, they fell silent.

At this moment, Jiang Jun was just a poor creature consumed by jealousy and unwillingness, and she really didn't want to waste any more words with her.

The best way to hit someone is never to fight back, but to ignore them directly.

No one in the Jiang family is worth her wasting any of her emotions.

"Father, we have completed the formalities of returning home today. If there is nothing else, my husband and I will take our leave."

After saying that, Jiang Song pulled Xie Changyan to stand up and walked straight out the door without even looking at Jiang Jun, as if she was just an insignificant speck of dust.

"Bitch—" Jiang Jun was so angry that he picked up the vase next to him and was about to throw it at Jiang Song.

But Jiang Song predicted her action, pulled Xie Changyan, and Xie Changyan turned slightly, cleverly avoiding the vase that was about to fly towards him.

The vase hit the wall with a "bang", and fragments flew everywhere. One of the fragments cut Jiang Jun's wrist directly. Blood gushed out instantly, staining her sleeve red.

"Ah--!" Jiang Jun screamed in pain, his face pale. He covered the wound with his hands, tears welling up in his eyes.

"Dahai, quickly stop this bitch Jiang Song. How dare she commit such a crime in public!" Du Shulan screamed upon seeing this, pointing at Jiang Song in panic, without any sense of right or wrong.

Unexpectedly, before Jiang Dahai even got close to the main hall, he was tightly wrapped around the neck by a hook. The sharp barbs on the hook instantly pierced his skin, and blood oozed out. He struggled in pain but could not make any sound.

This scene happened suddenly, and everyone in the hall was startled. They all looked at the other end of the hook - it was the servant Xie Ankang standing there with a stern expression.

The hook in his hand was like the tongue of a poisonous snake, emitting a cold light, which instantly dropped the atmosphere in the entire hall to freezing point.

"You... you actually dared to take action in Marquis Anding's Mansion? This is outrageous! Come, take him down quickly!" Du Shulan's voice was sharp and trembling, but no one dared to respond.

Jiang Dahai's martial arts skills are quite good, but in front of a master like Xie Ankang, it is obviously not enough.

The hook kept tightening, Jiang Dahai's face turned from red to purple, his eyes widened, and he almost suffocated.

Jiang Jun's heart was filled with hatred. He kicked another servant beside him and shouted angrily, "What are you still standing there for? Come on! Capture them all!"

The servants had no choice but to pick up their weapons and attack in groups in order to have a better chance of winning.

However, just after taking two steps forward, the five people in the front row were hit in the vitals by the hook thrown by Xie Ankang. They fell to the ground one after another, and wailed.

Seeing this, the remaining servants were so frightened that they retreated one after another, and no one dared to take a step forward.

No one could really see Xie Ankang's movements, nor did they know how he subdued so many people in an instant. They only felt a chill rising from the bottom of their hearts, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

Jiang Song could faintly sense a fluctuation of true energy from Xie Ankang. Although it was very weak, it was enough to prove that he was no ordinary person.

How could the Xie family have such a master? He was so hidden that even Jiang Song couldn't help but speculate more about the Xie family's background.

Her eyes flickered slightly as she looked at Xie Changyan beside her. His eyes were still as cold and clear as a deep pool, without a ripple at all, as if he had anticipated all this, or perhaps he didn't care at all.

"You guys go!" Jiang Buli waved to Jiang Song and Xie Changyan, headache and helplessness intertwined between his brows.

Jiang Song nodded slightly, pulled Xie Changyan, and without saying anything more, they turned and walked out the door.

Xie Ankang glanced at Xie Changyan, moved his wrist slightly, and the hook was instantly retracted. The subdued servants were as if they had been pardoned. They covered their wounds and made way.

Xie Ruyi spat at the blood on the ground and followed closely behind the two men. The group quickly and orderly left the main hall, crossed the chaotic courtyard, and walked towards the gate of the mansion.

"You're just going to leave like this? You want to run away after hurting someone? How can this be justified in the world?" Du Shulan was still roaring like a dog behind her.

The next moment, a slap mark appeared on Du Shulan's face. The force was so great that she staggered a few steps and her cheeks quickly became red and swollen.

"My Lord, you..." Her eyes were full of astonishment and disbelief.

"Did I tell you not to cause trouble today?" Jiang Buli's eyes were cold. "Look at what you've done! You've allowed your daughter to be so unruly and unreasonable, and it almost caused a disaster!"

Du Shulan covered her face with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes, but she didn't dare to refute.

"And you!" Jiang Buli turned abruptly, his gaze piercing Jiang Jun. "As the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, where have your manners and grace gone? It's truly disgraceful!"

"Father..." Jiang Jun covered his injured wrist, tears finally unable to hold back and fell.

"You and your daughter will be punished by kneeling in the ancestral hall for three days from today. You are not allowed to eat anything except water. You must reflect on your actions!"

After Jiang Buli finished speaking, he turned away, leaving Du Shulan and Jiang Jun looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Jiang Song, you bitch, just wait for me! I will settle this account with you sooner or later!"

Jiang Jun's resentful gaze seemed to burn a hole in Jiang Song's back.
