Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

Chapter 1331 - 762: Exposed: I’m Her Boyfriend and the Secret Lover

Accompanied by a chorus of gasps from the crowd—

You Hongxian lunged at Si Qingxiao, face twisted with rage, like he wanted to devour her alive.

"It’s you, it’s all you!"

His voice was fierce, his eyes bloodshot.

Jiang Chengsi was standing a bit farther away; he instinctively rushed over, but Huo Qinqi grabbed him, and meanwhile You Hongxian had already been stopped by others.

"Why are you holding me back?"

"This is their family business. And she’s not the type to suffer a loss."

The people around were all from the Si Family; You Hongxian must have lost his mind to dare raise his hand in public.

This might not be the Si Family’s turf, but tonight they were the hosts. The people around were all from the Si Family. You try to lay a hand on Si Qingxiao on someone else’s turf, and you think the people around her are dead?

They stood in front of her and pinned him in place.

You Hongxian still wanted to break through the Si Family’s blockade. "You little bitch, you plotted against me, this is all your fault..."

"Say that again?" Si Yushan was so furious he was about to combust, and he grabbed You Hongxian’s shoulder from the side.

Almost faster than the eye could see, he smashed a punch into his face.

The surroundings went dead silent.

The spring night breeze blew in from who knows where, chilling everyone to the bone.

Jiang Chengsi swallowed nervously, his throat bobbing slightly.

Huo Qinqi really hadn’t lied.

Mr. Si...

He really had trained.

That punch caught You Hongxian completely off guard; he went straight down, half his face instantly going numb, his brain buzzing, his ears filled with a dull roaring, and his gums and lip split open and bleeding.

The Si Family members hurriedly backed away from him.

Afraid he’d try to play victim and pin it on them.

"You Hongxian, I dare you to lay a finger on her! You try to hit my daughter right in front of me? You think I’m dead?"

Si Yushan had been pushed to the edge; on a normal day, he’d never lose his temper like this.

You Yunzhi simply walked over, pulled her daughter to her side, and quietly soothed her a couple of times.

"Mom, I’m fine, he didn’t touch me."

Si Qingxiao actually slipped an arm around her mother’s shoulders, patting her in comfort.

Disappointment in a person is built up over time; it just needs a trigger. Tonight just happened to provide that chance. In fact, with things between her and her younger brother turning out like this, You Yunzhi had long had a bad feeling.

She just hadn’t expected the break to come in such a brutal way.

If You Hongxian had even a shred of rationality left, he wouldn’t have tried to hit Si Qingxiao. But his reason was completely gone. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, pushed himself up off the floor.

He looked ferocious, horrifying, like a demon crawling up from hell that had to drag someone down with him.

"Heh—" You Hongxian sneered. "My son’s ruined anyway, I’ve got nothing left to look forward to. So what if your precious daughter turned out so great?"

"Yeah, the Si Family’s eldest miss—smart, elegant, good at everything. She’s the pride of you two. I know how much effort you’ve poured into her."

"Back when she was almost kidnapped, after she came back, you made her learn some self-defense. She thought it was tough, so you trained with her. I know exactly how much you dote on her."

You Hongxian was talking to Si Yushan.

Jiang Chengsi pressed his lips together. So that’s how Mr. Si learned to fight like that.

"But so what—" You Hongxian’s tone suddenly changed.

His voice rose and fell, sounding like a madman.

"No matter how good she is, it’s all fake! All an act!"

"Didn’t a lot of you want to marry her? Let me tell you, she’s already dating someone. She has a boyfriend!"

...

Everyone was stunned again.

What was with tonight? Did they step on a minefield? Bomb after bomb going off!

Each one more explosive than the last!

Drugging someone, her own uncle framing her, and now it’s exposed that Miss Si already has a boyfriend?

Many who came tonight were indeed eyeing her. Even if they couldn’t become in-laws with the Si Family, they still hoped their children could at least be friends with Si Qingxiao and build a good relationship.

So what’s the situation now?

Now that they’ve fully fallen out, they’re just going to start exposing each other’s dirty secrets?

That ruthless?

Looks like there’s still more gossip to eat tonight.

Everyone felt like they’d fallen into a melon field of juicy gossip.

The Si Family was usually way too low-key; there was hardly any scandal or dirt about them. Given You Hongxian’s relationship with the Si Family, what he said definitely couldn’t be fake.

"She has a boyfriend? Who is it? I’m dying of curiosity."

"I mean, it’s got to be someone like Master Huo, Second Master, or Fifth Master, right? Or maybe Third Young Master, that gentle scholarly type, high-education works too."

"No idea how far along they are. I thought I might have a shot, turns out the flower’s already spoken for."
