After all, the marriage between the two families is no joke, as it involves the business territory. Chu Yuanbai said this just to give the Xiao family a way out.

Otherwise, if the police are really called, it will not benefit either family.

There was no emotion in Mr. Xiao's gray eyes, and he poked the ground with his cane.

He said sternly, "Yuer, apologize to Miss Chu!"

"Grandpa..." Xiao Yue wanted to say something, but when he met Grandpa Xiao's sharp gaze, he had to swallow his words timidly.

He walked up to Chu He and said perfunctorily, "I'm sorry!"

In fact, Chu He was just playing along. Since someone wanted to embarrass him, he might as well make a bigger fuss so that the engagement ceremony would have to be interrupted. His goal would be achieved, and he didn't intend to get entangled with her anymore.

"Mom, let's go back."

Liang Qiu and Chu Yuanbai looked at each other, looking at their daughter distressedly. Chu Yuanbai nodded and said, "Hurry up, go and treat the wound first."

"Wait a minute! In-laws!" Old Master Xiao's vigorous and powerful voice rang out.

The relationship between the two families is delicate. Although it has eased a little in recent days, the marriage is like a thin thread binding the two families. It cannot withstand any pressure and will break if not handled with care.

Liang Qiu stopped while supporting Chu He.

Chu Yuanbai's expression changed, and a barely perceptible darkness flashed in his eyes.

Everyone present also held their breath.

"Since the engagement has been announced, Xiao He is the legitimate granddaughter-in-law of our Xiao family. Don't worry, my dear relatives. I will discipline Xiao Yue strictly when I return."

Chu He's heart tightened, and she quickly said, "Grandpa Xiao, I can let go of what happened today, but I think this marriage should still be..."

Before he could finish, Mr. Xiao raised his hand to interrupt.

His eyes were deep as he looked at the man who was leaning against the wall in the corner, watching the fun with his arms folded.

"Xiao Cheng! Come here!" A resounding voice attracted the attention of everyone present.

The man's handsome face looked like a sculpture under the spotlight.

He stood up straight and casually, unlike the other men attending the dinner who were dressed in suits.

He still had his sleeves rolled up, and two buttons of his shirt collar were casually open, allowing a glimpse of the firm muscles on his chest and forearms.

Despite his ruffian appearance, he stood out in the crowd. He casually threw away the cigarette in his hand, clapped his hands, and walked straight over.

When some of the socialites around saw the man coming, they couldn't help but blush and whisper to each other.

"Second Young Master Xiao is so handsome!"

"Yeah, here he comes, here he comes, he's got a great body!"

He is indeed the second young master of the Xiao family.

Chu He's heart trembled, not knowing what the old man was going to do.

"Xiao He, this is my grandson."

Then he looked at Chu Yuanbai who was standing beside him and said, "Don't worry, nephew Chu. Just leave Chu He to Xiao Cheng and let him take care of her. Our Xiao family should take responsibility for what happened today."

Chu Yuanbai glanced at Xiao Cheng with deep eyes. He waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this place for now. Take her to the hospital quickly."

"Dad..., I don't want him to take care of me."

Chu Yuanbai gave her a warning look and waved his hand, "Go ahead."

There was an unfathomable curve on Xiao Cheng's face, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"Don't worry, Uncle Chu, I will take good care of Chu He tonight."

Take good care of him. These four words were full of meaning, and even a fool could tell that he was not serious.

Chu He was shocked and cursed in her heart: This damn man talks nonsense without knowing the occasion.

The next second, the man came over and picked her up.

He walked into the hotel lobby with long legs.

Chu Feng, who had been standing beside Chu Yuanbai and watching silently, saw his sister being taken away. He wanted to step forward to stop it, but Chu Yuanbai grabbed his arm.

"Xiao Feng, your sister will soon be the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family. I believe Xiao Cheng will not do anything reckless."

Chu Feng's eyes were cold and fierce as he looked in the direction of the two of them.
