My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.

Xu Mengxian was dragged to a secluded grove of trees before being released.

As soon as she was free, she bent over, covered her mouth, and coughed violently.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The itch in my throat just wouldn't go away.

She felt like she was going to cough her lungs out.

After finally suppressing the itch, Xu Mengxian looked up and saw who was covering her mouth and dragging her over. She was furious.

She glared angrily at Han Qi. "Are you crazy?"

He got so excited that he couldn't help but cough again.

Han Qi's face was contorted with rage.

He's going crazy, who drove him to it?

It's all the fault of the Xu family. If they hadn't been so selfish, they wouldn't be in such a terrible situation.

Why wouldn't they agree to sacrifice just three members of the Xu family to ensure the safety of their entire family?

Thinking of how all his elders had fallen, Han Qi's face twisted horribly, wishing he could kill the Xu family members immediately.

But remembering that he still needed to use Xu Mengxian, he quickly suppressed the ferocity on his face and replaced it with a gentle expression:

"Cousin Xian, I'm sorry."

Did I hurt you? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.

I just wanted to talk to you privately, but I was afraid you wouldn't accept it, so I did it this way. I'm sorry, I apologize, please don't be angry, okay?

Xu Mengxian suppressed the itch in her throat and looked up at him:

"I have nothing to say to you."

"And my Xu family and your Han family are now completely estranged. Don't come looking for me."

After saying that, she turned to leave.

A dark glint flashed in Han Qi's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

He strode forward and stopped Xu Mengxian, looking at her with a sorrowful expression:

"Cousin Xian, is this really necessary?"

Grandfather has been so angry and sick because of you all.

Let me tell you, my grandfather never thought of giving up on the Xu family or on you.

He only wanted to rescue you after the Han family was out of trouble.

Otherwise, our two families will be bound together forever, with no chance of ever turning things around.

You understand this principle, right?

"So?" Xu Mengxian asked, her head spinning slightly.

But my mind was perfectly clear.

She finally saw how shameless a person could be to achieve their goals.

Even now, they're still treating her like a fool!

Xu Mengxian harbored resentment.

Do they really think I'm that stupid?

Han Qi's eyes lit up with joy, and he pulled a piece of white cloth from his pocket:

“Cousin Xian, it’s very simple. I want you to write a letter for me on a white cloth. If you don’t mind, you can prick your finger and write it with your blood.”

Seeing Xu Mengxian's furrowed brows, he quickly said:

"Of course, I feel sorry for my cousin Xian, so it would be better to prick my finger to draw blood, after all, I am a man."

Xu Mengxian was both angry and amused.

So, they really treated her like a fool.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Mengxian calmed herself down and sneered:

"Give it to me."

As he excitedly stepped forward to hand her the white cloth, Xu Mengxian slapped him hard across the face.

boom!

As the slap landed, a string of profanities followed:

"Han Qi, you idiot. You really think you can fool me, don't you?"

"They failed to force my brother and sister to write confessions, and now they're trying to deceive me."

Enraged, Xu Mengxian glanced at Han Qi, whose head she had knocked askew, and couldn't help but rush up and wave her hand again.

"I'll beat you to death, you shameless bastard!"

……

"stop."

Before Han Qi could react, Xu Mengxian slapped him several times, making him gasp in pain.

Has Xu Mengxian gone mad?

She actually dared to hit me!

"Stop!" Han Qi dodged awkwardly, but his eyes were filled with gloom.

"Xu Mengxian, if you don't stop, I'll get rough with you."

Xu Mengxian was too lazy to waste words with him and continued to hit him, venting her anger.

If it weren't for the Han family's instigation, or if I weren't so stupid, I wouldn't have done something to hurt my sister-in-law.

Even now, she still wants to take advantage of me and ruin her whole family.

no way!

I hit!

Xu Mengxian got more and more into the fight, as if she wouldn't stop until she beat the person to death.

"She's gone mad! Xu Mengxian has gone mad!" Han Qi roared in anger, raising his hand to slap Xu Mengxian across the face.

Snapped!

Caught off guard, Xu Mengxian was slapped to the ground by Han Qi.

Anger flared up in her heart instantly.

Fight!

Xu Mengxian scrambled to her feet, not even touching her sore face, and charged headfirst into Han Qi.

boom!

Han Qi was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground by her.

Xu Mengxian swayed slightly, then steadied herself, her face filled with hostility:

"Hit me?"

She charged at Han Qi again, kicking him repeatedly.

"I told you to hit me."

……

After a while, Xu Mengxian reverted to her temper as she had before her exile.

She was born the daughter of the Prince of Anping, a favored daughter of heaven, and naturally possessed her own pride.

The sudden confiscation of her property and exile, along with the events that occurred during this period, suppressed her temper, but that doesn't mean she had no temper at all.

When she got tired of kicking, Xu Mengxian stopped.

She glared fiercely at Han Qi:

"Han Qi, if you dare to lay a finger on my family again, I'll kill you."

After saying that, he turned around and tried to leave.

But as soon as she turned around, her body stiffened, and she suddenly didn't know what to do with her hands and feet.

Oh no, she saw the whole thing about me hitting her.

Looking at Lin Mo standing in the darkness not far away, Xu Mengxian nervously and cautiously took a few steps forward:

"Sister-in-law, I...I wasn't fooled this time."

He...he tried to lie to me, that's why I hit him.

Lin Mo glanced at her, then turned and left.

Xu Mengxian's eyes widened. Why did they leave?

Remembering the purpose of her trip, Xu Mengxian chased after him:

"Sister-in-law, I... I want to apologize to you."

Lin Mo stopped and looked at her coldly:

"I remember telling you that I do not accept your apology."

Xu Mengxian's eyes dimmed, and she nodded, "I know."

She raised her head, mustering her courage:

"But I still want to apologize to you seriously and formally once again."

Sister-in-law, I'm sorry.

I was foolish and stupid before. I not only hurt my sister-in-law, but I almost killed her. I'm so sorry.

"Finished?" Lin Mo glanced at her expressionlessly.

He then turned and left.

But the moment she turned around, she suddenly turned back and rushed towards Xu Mengxian.

Xu Mengxian stared blankly at the face getting closer and closer, her heart pounding wildly. When she saw the woman raise her fist to punch her, Xu Mengxian's eyes widened.

If letting my sister-in-law punch me can calm her down, then that punch is worth it.

Xu Mengxian steeled her resolve and closed her eyes.

Get ready for this punch.

boom!

Pfft!

"Ahhh!"

Han Qi's screams rang out.

Xu Mengxian's eyes widened, somewhat at a loss. Where was the expected pain?

"Idiot!" Lin Mo scoffed, shook her hand, and turned to leave.

Xu Mengxian, “…”

She was scolded by her sister-in-law again, and she felt terrible.

He turned around and looked behind him.

Han Qi was lying on the ground groaning, and there was a stone next to him.

Xu Mengxian thought about what had just happened.

So, when Han Qi tried to ambush her with a stone, her sister-in-law noticed and saved her with a punch.

Waaah, brother was right, sister-in-law is a good person.

And the Han family...

Xu Mengxian had a fierce look on her face.

He rushed over and kicked Han Qi several more times.

As he screamed, he turned and rushed into the house.

He deserves it.

Lin Mo, who had left, was looking ahead with a dark expression.

Old Wei was sitting here drinking just now, but he's gone now.

unlucky.

Lin Mo was depressed.

She originally came out to find Lao Wei, but unexpectedly saw that idiot Xu Mengxian being dragged away by Han Qi with his mouth covered.

Fearing something might happen, she had no choice but to give up talking to Lao Wei and rush over to save Xu Mengxian.

When I returned, Lao Wei was no longer there.

Sure enough, nothing good ever happens when you run into Xu Mengxian.

Take a deep breath and calm your agitated mind.

Lin Mo then prepared to turn and leave.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw Old Wei walking towards him.

With a thought, a water sack filled with wine appeared in her hand.

"Looking for me?" Old Wei sized her up with disdain.

"You've gotten yourself into trouble and want me to step in and resolve it?"

Forget it, it's impossible. I'm not going to help you solve any problems.

Lin Mo choked up.

That's really direct.

She shook her head, raised her hand, revealing the water pouch she was holding:

"Would you like some fine wine?"

Old Wei glared at her, wanting to have the backbone to say no.

But then I remembered that this morning, I had tried all the wines in town and hadn't found any that were better than hers.

Frustrated, he thought, "Don't cause me any trouble, I can't handle it."

Before he could finish speaking, he snatched the wine from her hand.

He could turn a blind eye to her fighting with the Han family, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Old Wei slowly took a sip after uncorking the bottle.

Sigh, that's the feeling.

This woman knows how to manipulate people.
