Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Rescuing Big Brother 7_1 Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Rescuing Big Brother 7_1 “You…” Upon hearing his words, Liu Ying’s complexion imdiately shifted, her fingers clenching tightly. She was not dim-witted and could clearly detect the hesitation and struggle in his voice.
She hurriedly pinched herself in secret, and pitiful tears promptly welled up in her eyes.
Seeing her cry and wail again, the big brother’s frown deepened, “Stop crying, I’ll go with you.”
Normally, such significant matters regarding marriage should be dealt with by the parents in person, but Mrs. Xia and Xia Jiehao had other matters to attend to, leaving only Xia Ningxing to accompany her big brother.
Liu Ying’s ho was in a small village near the edge of the Capital City, a three-hour drive away.
The village was neither poor nor wealthy—the kind of place where people were just getting enough to eat.
As the big brother’s sedan drove into the village, many villagers gathered behind it to look, as if it were so kind of rare treasure.
Even after all these years, the speed of economic developnt and the tis still moved slowly; many citizens still found it difficult to secure basic food and clothing, let alone afford such luxury modes of transportation.
“Is that a relative’s car?”
“I think I see old Liu Family’s daughter sitting in the car; could it be she found a new suitor out there?”
“Wow, that car must cost at least two or three hundred thousand, right? A person who can afford such an expensive car, their family must be really wealthy!”
“The Liu Family’s really struck it rich this ti.”
The villagers were abuzz with discussion, almost turning green with envy.
Inside the car.
Liu Ying, seeing those envious looks from the villagers, unwittingly lifted her chin in disdain and pride, as if she were soone superior.
Liu Ying’s maternal ho wasn’t far from the village.
A ten-minute drive and they arrived.
As Xia Ningxing and the others entered, they saw a tall and burly man with an angry expression on his face, holding a stick in his hand.
Upon seeing the big brother, he imdiately charged over threateningly, “Are you the bastard who robbed my sister of her innocence?”
“You can’t just throw around accusations like that!” Xia Ningxing imdiately frowned, stood protectively in front of her big brother, and retorted, “First of all, the person who wronged your sister isn’t my big brother; it was a gang of thugs. Liu Ying was just protecting my brother.”
“What difference does it make?” The man didn’t care about details, refusing to listen, and still aid to hit the big brother with the stick.
As if on cue, at that mont, a woman with tiny feet hurried out to hold him back, “Daniu, what are you doing? They’ve already agreed to take responsibility for your sister, haven’t they? If you hurt him, what then?”
“Mother’s right,” the man said, as though he had just seen the light, and finally stopped his motion.
Liu Ying stepped forward, her eyes reddened, and pretended to be very aggrieved as she called out to them, “Mother… Brother…”
Though she loathed her family, she knew that her maternal family was now her support and backing.
“My poor daughter, you have suffered so much! Are you foolish? You ruined your own innocence for the sake of soone else!” Mrs. Liu imdiately wailed and held her in her arms as if she truly felt an imnse heartache.
If one could disregard the cunning gleam in her eyes.
“Don’t worry, your mother and brother will definitely stand up for you!” After patting her back, Mrs. Liu turned to face the big brother, her shrimp-like eyes revealing a greedy ugliness:
“My daughter has suffered so much harm for you, so the dowry for the wedding has to be several tis higher than usual, as a form of spiritual compensation for my daughter! You have no objections to that, right?”
