Chapter 37 (1/2)

I Didn’t Get into a Fight

“Just you wait! I won’t stop even if your mother begs me in tears!” Mrs. Lu was furious.

Xu Zhengyang was unmoved. “Don’t worry, whoever begs you is a dog. Is your lawyer any good? If not, I’ll introduce you to one…”

Lu Zhuo pulled his mother, who was trembling in anger, behind him and looked at Xu Zhengyang viciously. “Do you have to do this? Do you have to ruin the relationship between our two families?”

The smile on Xu Zhengyang’s face gradually disappeared. “When you abandoned my sister to go to another woman on the day of the wedding, our families had already broken up.”

Lu Zhuo said, “I’ve explained everything to Jiaojiao. It’s a misunderstanding. Back then, I…”

Before Lu Zhuo could finish, Xu Zhengyang interrupted him. He said through gritted teeth, “I don’t care about your reasons! No decent human being would abandon the bride on the day of the wedding! You can look down on our family and ignore our reputation, but you can’t just trample over Jiaojiao’s feelings! Have you f*cking thought about how my sister had to face a wedding without the groom? Can you imagine how many people would’ve pointed fingers at her?! How many people would’ve laughed at her!”

Lu Zhuo was taken aback and did not know how to retort. He looked at Xu Jiaojiao with guilt in his eyes. Xu Jiaojiao tugged Xu Zhengyang’s arm and said, “Brother, forget it. It’s all in the past now.” She did not want her brother to be angry about the past.

Mrs. Lu did not think that Lu Zhuo was in the wrong. She grabbed Lu Zhuo’s arm and said, “Let’s go to the hospital. There’s no need to talk to them.” In the end, Lu Zhuo was forcibly dragged away. He kept turning his head and staring at Xu Jiaojiao.

Xu Jiaojiao lowered her head and did not even look at him. Instead, she looked at Xu Zhengyang worriedly. “Brother, are you alright? Are you hurt?” Although Xu Zhengyang had beaten Lu Zhuo up one-sidedly, Lu Zhuo had also retaliated.

Xu Zhengyang smiled. “No, I’ve been through hundreds of battles. I’m invincible.”

“…Then when Mom and Dad scold you later, don’t ask me for help.”

Xu Zhengyang choked and rubbed Xu Jiaojiao’s head furiously. “You’re disloyal! I’m helping you get your revenge, yet you’re abandoning me!”

“I didn’t ask you to hit anyone.” Xu Jiaojiao pouted, feeling both heartache and helplessness. “How old are you? You still get into fights at the drop of a hat. You have to change that habit.”

“I disagree,” Xu Zhengyang answered without hesitation. “Someone bullied my sister, so I have to beat him up!”
