Arrogant and domineering because of his good looks: His Majesty always pretends to be righteous

Cai Qiao'er gave a mocking laugh. "Redeem me? But didn't you promise to marry me? Now I can't go back and I'm penniless. How am I supposed to live?!"

"You tell me you suffered terribly and were wronged there. I'm already being kind by redeeming you. What does it matter to me how you live?" Wang Runfa turned his head away. For a businessman, profit is still the most important thing.

Although he did have some thoughts about Cai Qiao'er during this time, it wasn't enough to make him give up his own interests for her. Moreover, Wang Runfa still had his aunt in his heart. The deep affection he had for her since childhood could not be compared to that of a woman of the night.

"Wang Runfa!" Cai Qiao'er roared, "You're a coward! I can't live like this! What am I supposed to do now?!" As she spoke, Cai Qiao'er grabbed Wang Runfa's sleeve and started tearing at it.

Wang Runfa couldn't bear to let Cai Qiao'er pull him like that, so he slapped her across the face. Cai Qiao'er screamed and turned her head to the side, a red handprint quickly appearing on her face.

Cai Qiao'er stared at Wang Runfa in disbelief. Just a few hours ago, the man who had been embracing her and whispering sweet nothings was now slapping her. Wang Runfa was also stunned. After a moment, he snorted coldly, "You're the one who came after me, so don't blame me for taking action."

Cai Qiao'er took a few steps back and shouted, "You, you men are all the same!"

Wang Runfa looked at Cai Qiao'er's ferocious face with disgust. "Just a prostitute, she really thinks she's something special. Get out! Get out of my house!"

Cai Qiao'er was unwilling to accept this. She couldn't stand being called a prostitute. These words were like a thorn in her heart. Cai Qiao'er stared at Wang Runfa with vicious eyes and screamed as she pounced on him.

The two immediately started fighting. Cai Qiao'er was a woman after all, and there was a huge difference in size between men and women. Soon, Cai Qiao'er was defeated and was pinned to the ground and beaten by Wang Runfa.

"You slut! Look at yourself, you don't know anything!" Wang Runfa cursed, spewing out all sorts of words. Seeing Cai Qiao'er sprawled on the ground, he dragged her out.

As he walked away, he said, "Do you think I don't know what you're after? From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other. Get lost and never let me see you again."

After saying that, he threw Cai Qiao'er out the door and closed it. Cai Qiao'er lay on the floor outside, trembling with pain in her legs, waist, and face.

Cai Qiao'er stood up. People passing by looked at her strangely, some with doubt, some with disdain. Cai Qiao'er shouted at the people around her, "What are you looking at? Get lost..."

People around her stared at her as if she were crazy, then took a few steps back and left. At this moment, Cai Qiao'er's hair was disheveled, her makeup was messy, her clothes were torn and messy, and the red marks on her face were shocking. Wang Runfa showed no mercy.

Cai Qiao'er was too ashamed to stay any longer, so she covered her face and ran away.

Inside the room, Wang Runfa sat in a chair, touched his cheek and suddenly hissed. There were scratches from Cai Qiao'er's fingernails on his face and arms. Wang Runfa cursed, "You bitch, I shouldn't have redeemed you."

Xia family,

When Old Lady Xia saw Lin Yue and Xia Zhishu return, she went up to them and asked, "How did it go? What is that bastard Wang Runfa up to?"

Xia Zhishu replied, "He wants to take a concubine... but Yue'er and I tried to dissuade him, explaining the reasons and the drawbacks. I don't know if he will listen. How is Aunt?"

"Your aunt is inside. That bastard Wang Runfa, first he sold his daughter, and now he wants to take a concubine. Does he really think the people in my Xia family are all dead? Or are they prostitutes? Their eyes have been stolen by dogs." Old Madam Xia said angrily, feeling disappointed in her husband.

"Alright, Mother, we've said everything we needed to say. As for what to do next, that's up to Uncle and Aunt."

Old Mrs. Xia sighed, "I'll go see him. You've all been busy all day, so you should rest. This whole thing is getting worse every day."

Lin Yue and Xia Zhishu met eyes. Lin Yue shrugged helplessly. "Let's go see Yin Yin. I haven't seen you for so many days. I keep thinking about you."

In the afternoon, someone knocked on the door. Lin Yue opened it and saw Wang Runfa. Just as she was about to close the door, Wang Runfa pushed it open and came in. Lin Yue was not as strong as him, so she had no choice but to let him in.

"Xiaoyue, your aunt is here with you, right? I've come to apologize to her. May I see her?" Wang Runfa said to Lin Yue with a smile, his face bearing several noticeable red marks.

"I'll go ask first. If your aunt wants to see you, then we'll talk. If she doesn't want to see you, then please go back. Uncle, you can wait here." Lin Yue said coldly before going into the inner room.

Inside the room, Old Lady Xia and Aunt Wang saw Lin Yue come over and asked, "What's wrong?" Old Lady Xia thought of something and said, "Did that bastard Wang Runfa come over? Chase him out!"

"...Mother, don't get agitated. Uncle said he came to apologize to Aunt. I told him to wait outside, and if Aunt doesn't want to see him, I'll ask him to leave," Lin Yue said to Aunt Wang.

"He still has the nerve to come and apologize?! What's the point of doing this after he's already done it?"

As Aunt Xia spoke, her hand was pressed down by Aunt Wang. "Forget it, I'll go see him. This stalemate isn't a solution. We'll have to face it sooner or later."

Lin Yue led Aunt Wang out of the inner room and into the courtyard. Sure enough, they saw Wang Runfa pacing back and forth. Aunt Wang suddenly didn't want to see him anymore, but Wang Runfa saw her first.

Wang Runfa strode up to his aunt, took her hand, and said sincerely, "Please come back with me. I know I was wrong. I've already kicked that little bitch out. Please come back with me."

Aunt Wang looked at Wang Runfa, who was holding her hand, but refused to answer. Seeing that Aunt Wang still looked unwilling, Wang Runfa knelt down in front of her with a 'plop' and said, "I was wrong, I was just confused for a moment!"

"You were confused for a moment. When you stood on her side and confronted me, did you not think about my feelings?" Aunt Wang paused when she saw the scratches on Wang Runfa's face. "Let me tell you, you can go back, but you'll have to sleep in separate rooms."

"Okay, okay, I'll do anything as long as you can go back," Wang Runfa readily agreed.

In the end, Aunt Wang went back with Wang Runfa with a cold face. However, this time it really hurt Aunt Wang. After returning, Wang Runfa could clearly feel that Aunt Wang was distancing herself from him.

Old Mrs. Xia was still indignant, saying, "This kind of person should never be forgiven. He should be left to grow old alone!"

"At least they've made up, and life goes on. Aunt can't stay with us forever. We should respect her choice. She's not stupid," Lin Yue said.

During the meal, Xia Rongliu noticed that Aunt Wang was not there and asked Lin Yue, "Did Aunt go back?"

"Yes, we've gone back. Your great-uncle has come to apologize. If I had known this would happen, I should have asked him when you told me."

"Mother, it's nothing. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. Asking sooner might not be a good thing." Xia Rongliu hugged Lin Yue, and Lin Yue hugged Xia Rongliu back and patted Xia Rongliu's shoulder.
