Madam Yuan's gaze lingered on Long Xiaoxiao for a moment before she looked up at Yuan Wang.

"how old are you?"

Yuan Wang frowned; it was obvious that Old Madam Yuan was trying to find out.

Three years ago, Yuan Wang and Wu Shaoyang broke up. If Long Xiaoxiao were three years old, she would definitely be forced to marry Wu Shaoyang.

With the Wu family's vast business empire, the Yuan family naturally wanted a piece of the pie.

Yuan Wang's face darkened slightly: "When I was abducted to Myanmar, you were indifferent. Now that I've finally come back, you don't care at all, but instead you're eager to interfere in my life."

"You'd be happier if I were dead than alive, wouldn't you?"

His voice trembled slightly as he spoke the last sentence.

Yuan Wang thought he had long accepted the fact that he was not liked by the Yuan family, but now that he clearly realized that all his closest relatives wanted him to die, he couldn't help but feel a little trembling.

Long Xiaoxiao noticed Yuan Wang's emotions, looked up at Yuan Wang's chin, hesitated for a moment, and finally propped her head up and rubbed her cheek against Yuan Wang's cheek.

"What are you saying?" Old Madam Yuan's face also turned ugly.

Family scandals should not be aired in public. Now that Yuan Wangming has clearly revealed their intentions, it is a very shameful thing in the eyes of the old lady of the Yuan family.

The onlookers around them exchanged unreadable glances, each seeing a sigh in the other's eyes.

Long Xiaoxiao struggled to leave Yuan Wang's embrace and stand on her own, so Yuan Wang had to bend down and put her down first.

Long Xiaoxiao stood up straight, looked up at the old lady of the Yuan family, pursed her lips, and had a serious expression on her small face.

"No, you can't argue." Long Xiaoxiao said earnestly.

The old lady of the Yuan family gave Long Xiaoxiao a strange look, ignored her, and continued to speak to Yuan Wang: "Can you give the family a break? I don't want to hear your excuses about where this child came from. Show me your paternity test results right now."

Paternity test?

The people around them started whispering again.

"This child is so big, how could he possibly be Yuan Wang's?"

"I remember Yuan Wang wasn't pregnant a few years ago either, was she?"

"Yes, her company had just been founded at that time."

"It's hard to say. Maybe she was born back then, but they waited until now to bring her back in order to avoid suspicion."

"..."

Yuan Wang said coldly, "Xiao Xiao is not my daughter, but I will raise her as my daughter from now on. I don't need your criticism. I have not relied on your Yuan family for a living."

These words, when they reached the ears of Old Madam Yuan, were interpreted as her becoming arrogant and disrespectful. She was immediately enraged and abandoned her feigned politeness.

"Have you no shame? You had a child with another man outside, and now you want to sever ties with your family! How can you be so shameless? You don't deserve to be a daughter of the Yuan family at all!"

Previously, the old lady of the Yuan family had always presented a kind, gentle, dignified, and polite image to the outside world. Now, her frequent use of foul language has left everyone speechless.

As the old lady of the Yuan family cursed more and more filthy, Yuan Wang felt increasingly embarrassed. He bent down to try to take Long Xiaoxiao away, but found that Long Xiaoxiao had already disappeared.

"Xiao Xiao?" Yuan Wang was truly panicked at this moment.

At this moment, Long Xiaoxiao was mingling in the crowd, standing on tiptoe and looking around at something.

She still remembered Yuan Wang's words: you can't attack others directly, or you'll be arrested.

However, Long Xiaoxiao couldn't just let others bully Sister Yuan Wang.

Suddenly, the cleaning lady carrying a bucket of water passed by the corridor, and Long Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up.

"That bastard..."

As the old lady of the Yuan family continued her incessant rant, her scolding was about to turn on Long Xiaoxiao when she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

Wow!

"what!"

The expensive dress was now completely soaked. The old lady of the Yuan family screamed instinctively and wiped her water-covered face.

"Who? Who did this!" Old Madam Yuan shouted angrily, turning to look at the crowd.

Her makeup was washed away by the water, and combined with her wrinkled skin, she looked rather frightening. People who were stared at by her couldn't help but shudder and take a few steps back.

Meanwhile, Long Xiaoxiao, the instigator, stood still with a bucket in her hand, looking up and staring straight at the old lady of the Yuan family.

"Grandma, you can't fight," Long Xiaoxiao said.

As she spoke, Long Xiaoxiao nodded firmly, trying to make her words more convincing, her chubby cheeks swaying with each forceful nod.

The bucket beside her was almost as tall as her, but Long Xiaoxiao lifted the bucket full of water with ease, and even threw all the water accurately at Old Madam Yuan without any deviation.

"Huh? This kid... he's so strong."

"This bucket is almost taller than her."

"This kid is amazing."

"A super-strong, cute girl?"

"..."

When the old lady of the Yuan family realized that she had been splashed with water by this little brat, she was so angry that she trembled all over and pointed at Long Xiaoxiao for a long time without being able to say a word.

Wu Shaoyang, who had been watching the spectacle with schadenfreude from a distance, shrank back as the memory of being punched and sent flying last night flooded back. He subconsciously shrank further into the crowd.

"Yuan Wang! Take this freak and get out! Don't ever come back to the Yuan family!"

This was the last thing Madam Yuan said before she fainted from anger.

Long Xiaoxiao blinked twice, threw away the bucket in her hand, and ran quickly to the side of Old Madam Yuan. She looked down at her with concern in her eyes.

"Uncle, what's wrong with her?" Long Xiaoxiao asked the system for help.

The system, which had been trying to dissuade Long Xiaoxiao from making any moves, looked at everything before it, sighed, and replied with a weary expression, "It's nothing, she's just dizzy from anger. Go with your sister Yuan Wang."

When the system said the last sentence, its tone was sarcastic.

I've only known this Sister Yuan Wang for a short time, but I've been standing up for her all along.

Despite these complaints, the system actually did not criticize Long Xiaoxiao's decision in any way.

It would be wonderful if he could grow up to be a brave and kind child.

Yuan Wang quickly stepped forward, grabbed Long Xiaoxiao's hand, and pulled her back. He glanced warily at the old lady of the Yuan family who was being pinched in the philtrum, and took advantage of the chaos in the crowd to hurriedly leave.

The old lady of the Yuan family has enjoyed a life of pleasure and is in better health than Yuan Wangdu. A bucket of ice water won't cause any major problems.

Besides, even if something really serious happened, Yuan Wang wouldn't think that Long Xiaoxiao had done anything wrong.

Long Xiaoxiao was led away by Yuan Wang. When they reached the car, Yuan Wang's tense nerves relaxed slightly. He bent down and reached out to touch the top of Long Xiaoxiao's head.

"Xiaoxiao, you can't do that next time."

Long Xiaoxiao nodded as usual.

Just as Yuan Wang was about to leave, holding Long Xiaoxiao's hand, two women who had also come out of the villa suddenly approached.

"Miss Yuan!" they waved enthusiastically.

Yuan Wang paused. She didn't have a very good relationship with the people in those wealthy circles. She couldn't remember most of them by name, and she had even made enemies with a few.

The two people in front of her were strangers; they were people she didn't know at all.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" Yuan Wang asked politely but distantly.

"Um...we'd like to ask, is this child your biological child?" The two women blinked.

Yuan Wang sighed and rubbed his forehead. She and Long Xiaoxiao didn't look alike at all: "No."

"Oh, so you found her near Huangge Mountain?" As they spoke, the women took out their phones and played a video of Song Xing and Long Xiaoxiao together. "Look, this child looks exactly like her!"
