Chapter 385: Chapter 414: The Talkative Brat (Fourth Update)
"Hehe, then I really want to see how you make us regret it!" Tang Qiaohua said with a laugh, looking at Lin Xi with a mocking expression.
Just a moment ago, she didnât know Lin Xiâs identity, but now she knewâa country bumpkin dared to challenge the Lu family? Truly doesnât know life from death.
Does he really think that by clinging to a police flower, he can meddle in affairs recklessly?
If so, thatâs truly naive!
Fang Cheng, standing beside Lin Xi, was very nervous, but still brave enough not to leave, despite the odds against them, even though he had just met Lin Xi today, even though he didnât know what to do now!
"What should we do?" he asked Lin Xi quietly, who stood immobile.
Lin Xi glanced at him with a peculiar look, surprised that not only did he not leave, but he also asked what to do, clearly wanting to save his so-called little brother-in-law.
"Fight!" Lin Xi replied calmly.
"Fight?" Fang Cheng shivered, "Do we really have to fight? Canât we just talk this out?"
"Look at them; do you think talking will work?"
"No..."
"Then there you go, but I can handle it myself. You just watch from the side!"
"That wonât do, I also..."
Before he could finish, Tang Qiaohua lost her patience and shouted, "What are you two mumbling about? I donât have time to play with you here!"
"Brother-in-law, if youâre chickening out, why not just call my sister?" The little boy assumed Lin Xi was just being brave, seeing as there were so many people on the other side and only the two of them, neither of whom looked like they could fight. It would be tragic if he wasnât saved and they got themselves in trouble.
"...This brat!" Lin Xi couldnât help but grumble inwardly, remembering something and asked, "By the way, whatâs your sisterâs name?"
He had a feeling this kid wasnât lying.
The others, hearing this, were momentarily stunned. Isnât it Zhou Yan?
How could it be that he doesnât know Zhou Yanâs name?
"Brother-in-law, youâre asking me what my sisterâs name is?" The little boy was shocked, "Hasnât she ever mentioned me to you?"
Looking dejected, he sighed, "I knew it, once my sister had a man, sheâd forget about her little brother. Iâm going to tell dad when I get back that if he passes away, the inheritance must all go to me, not a penny to my sister!"
"..." Lin Xi was speechless. This brat was something else, and he started getting a headache. "Stop rambling. Whatâs your sisterâs name?"
"Shangguan Nishang!" The boy pouted, then suddenly got excited and told Lin Xi, "Oh, brother-in-law, my name is Shangguan Hong."
"And, brother-in-law, donât be sad. Although I told dad not to share the inheritance with my sister, I can get him to give you a share since we must hold the financial power as men."
"..."
The brat wouldnât stop chattering, making Lin Xi a bit dizzy, but "Shangguan Nishang?"
It sounded familiar, like heâd heard it somewhere before.
Fang Cheng looked at Lin Xi with confusion, as if to say, "Isnât your girlfriend Zhou Yan?"
The people from the Lu family, especially Tang Qiaohua and Lu Zhou, showed a change in expression upon hearing these words.
Could it be that Shangguan family?
If so, not only would they have to release the boy immediately, but theyâd also have to apologize. If the Shangguan family didnât accept the apology, their Lu familyâs future would be bleak.
But it must be fake, right? A ploy to scare them!
After all, the boyâs girlfriend is definitely Zhou Yan.
Lu Zhou was sure about this!
"Youâre playing us, arenât you!" Tang Qiaohua thought they were acting and deliberately brought up the Shangguan family to frighten them, which only made her angrier, making her unwilling to wait any longer, "Yu Hua, hit the little brat for me; letâs see what they can do!"
"Hah!" Lin Xi let out a cold chuckle, ready to make a move.
Just then, the elevator not far away dinged, followed by the sound of "tap tap tap" of high heels, and a clear, cold voice said, "If you dare lay a finger on my brother, Iâll ensure you never dare to face the world again in your life!"
