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 didn’t know Lin Xi’s identity, but now she knew—a country bumpkin dared to challenge the Lu family? Truly doesn’t know life from death.
Does he really think that by clinging to a police flower, he can meddle in affairs recklessly?
If so, that’s 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 didn’t 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? Can’t 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 won’t do, I also..."
Before he could finish, Tang Qiaohua lost her patience and shouted, "What are you two mumbling about? I don’t have time to play with you here!"
"Brother-in-law, if you’re 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 wasn’t saved and they got themselves in trouble.
"...This brat!" Lin Xi couldn’t help but grumble inwardly, remembering something and asked, "By the way, what’s your sister’s name?"
He had a feeling this kid wasn’t lying.
The others, hearing this, were momentarily stunned. Isn’t it Zhou Yan?
How could it be that he doesn’t know Zhou Yan’s name?
"Brother-in-law, you’re asking me what my sister’s name is?" The little boy was shocked, "Hasn’t she ever mentioned me to you?"
Looking dejected, he sighed, "I knew it, once my sister had a man, she’d forget about her little brother. I’m 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. What’s your sister’s 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, don’t 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 wouldn’t stop chattering, making Lin Xi a bit dizzy, but "Shangguan Nishang?"
It sounded familiar, like he’d heard it somewhere before.
Fang Cheng looked at Lin Xi with confusion, as if to say, "Isn’t 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 they’d also have to apologize. If the Shangguan family didn’t accept the apology, their Lu family’s future would be bleak.
But it must be fake, right? A ploy to scare them!
After all, the boy’s girlfriend is definitely Zhou Yan.
Lu Zhou was sure about this!
"You’re playing us, aren’t 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; let’s 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, I’ll ensure you never dare to face the world again in your life!"
