"Si Lin, have you lost your mind? Have you forgotten what kind of relationship our two families share? Your treatnt of will bring divine retribution."
Luoxia completely panicked, desperately screaming and causing a scene.
She was in the pri of her life, and it was already unfortunate enough to be violated.
But now, Si Lin actually wanted to send her to a ntal institution, that kind of hellish place?
No!
She did not want to waste her life in a ntal institution, she refused!
But Yuan Zhou and the others seed not to see her struggles and resistance, and had already started to drag her out.
Luoxia beca even more out of control, her yelling and cursing growing more intense.
Si Lin, annoyed by the noise, later had them knock Luoxia out and directly sent her to the ntal institution.
That sa evening, Luo Yuntian went to the ntal institution to see Luoxia, and then kept demanding to see Si Lin, wanting to get Luoxia out.
Si Lin consistently refused, up until Old Madam Si brought Luo Yuntian to confront him together.
"Si Lin, get Luoxia out of the ntal institution imdiately, do you hear ?"
Once Old Madam Si spoke up, Luo Yuntian started to clamor as well.
"Xiaxia is perfectly sane, to lock her up like that is utterly inhumane."
However, what they didn’t expect was Si Lin suddenly scoffing, "I have even more inhumane thods if you’d like to try?"
"Do you want to rebel?" Old Madam Si pulled out her seniority, trying to suppress Si Lin.
Unexpectedly, Si Lin kicked away Old Madam Si’s walking stick and with a piercing gaze that seed icy cold, he stared at her and Luo Yuntian.
"You old hag, I call you Grandmother only within the confines of the old mansion, simply for family harmony. Don’t think you have the right to boss around. You should know, I tend not to be reasonable."
Old Madam Si and Luo Yuntian clearly did not expect Si Lin to suddenly tear off his pretense with them.
After all, even if Si Lin did not obey these two non-blood-related individuals previously, he would still play along to so extent.
But the current situation left no room for them to delve into why Si Lin refused to be controlled.
Especially Luo Yuntian, despite feeling aggrieved, still changed his tone to persuade Si Lin.
"Si Lin, we are not being nitpicky, we are anxious because of Xiaxia. If Xiaxia did sothing wrong, you could give her to us for discipline, but you cannot keep her in a ntal institution, it will ruin her life."
But Si Lin only gave him a cold glare.
"Do you want her life ruined, or do you want your entire Luo Family destroyed, choose one. If it’s the latter, for the sake of family ties, I’ll arrange a decent plot for your whole family."
"Do you want to exterminate us all?"
Old Madam Si, used to wielding power in the Si family, couldn’t help but get domineering once anxious.
Fortunately, this ti Si Lin only hid a warning in his frown: "This is Third Master Fu’s idea, of course if Third Master Fu decides to act, I wouldn’t mind stabbing a few more tis."
"You..." Old Madam Si was infuriated.
But in the end, they could only concede, as the matter involved Third Master Fu.
That man was not easy to deal with, and indeed might cause the whole Luo Family to fall!
After Old Madam Si and Luo Yuntian had left, Yuan Zhou couldn’t help but ask Si Lin, "Why did you suddenly fall out with Old Madam Si? Aren’t you worried she’ll go back and complain to your grandfather?"
In the past, Old Madam Si had not refrained from acting unreasonably in front of Si Lin, leveraging her senior status.
But then, Si Lin would still play along a bit just for the sake of harmony within the Si family.
So why did he suddenly seem uninterested in continuing to play the part today?
After venting, Si Lin had a calm gaze and a much gentler tone.
"If she dares to sabotage behind my back, I can also find a new old lady for my grandfather, I wouldn’t mind changing grandmothers."
As for why he suddenly could not tolerate Old Madam Si’s unreasonable behavior, even Si Lin was unsure.
Could it be just as Luoxia said, that he had fallen for Jiang Moxi?
It shouldn’t be possible, right?
After all, Jiang Moxi is so horrible, always giving him cold looks, and unwilling to accept anything he offers...
But if he really didn’t like Jiang Moxi, why would he be so worried about her getting hurt?
Si Lin couldn’t figure it out no matter how hard he thought, so he called for a lot of alcohol, making Yuan Zhou and the others keep him company till he was thoroughly drunk.
On the 29th of the lunar month, Jiang Moxi found a pretty decent house in a rental ad.
Unexpectedly, the landlord asked to et her at a bar that night to discuss.
Jiang Moxi had considered that this landlord might be a bit unscrupulous.
However, she could handle it, so she went to the appointnt.
But before Jiang Moxi t the landlord in the bar, she ran into Fu Yiming.
Fu Yiming was dancing with a woman when he saw his ex-fiancé, Jiang Moxi, and seed surprised but approached her anyway.
"Moxi, are you working here? Instead of struggling here, why not join for a few drinks tonight? I’ll tip you well, definitely more than what you’d make working here for a month."
Fu Yiming said these words while sizing up Jiang Moxi’s clothes and the backpack she was carrying.
His gaze fully demonstrated his disdain for her cheap attire.
He even let go of the beauty in his arms and stretched his long arm toward Jiang Moxi’s slender waist.
Yes, seeing Jiang Moxi unmade up yet still beautifully fresh and refined, Fu Yiming sowhat regretted not having ’picked this delicate flower’ during their engagent.
However, he felt it wasn’t too late now.
For a girl like Jiang Moxi, who’s not very capable and unloved by her parents, just a little money and so superficial care, she would be moved to tears and willingly lie beneath him.
But as idealistic as that was, the reality was...
Before Fu Yiming could touch Jiang Moxi’s waist, she slapped him hard across the face.
"Show so respect, Young Master Fu." Jiang Moxi’s beautiful eyes were filled with iciness.
"Jiang Moxi, you dare hit ?" Fu Yiming sobered up most from the alcohol after being hit.
He held his swollen face, looking at Jiang Moxi in disbelief.
Before, Jiang Moxi always seed breathless in front of him.
Even after he cheated on her with Jiang Weiwei, Jiang Moxi never dared to say a harsh word.
But today, she slapped him?
"Why shouldn’t I? The calendar doesn’t say it’s a bad day for hitting!"
Jiang Moxi had wanted to hit this scumbag for a long ti, but she was worried that doing so might reveal her identity and put Feng Ming at risk as well.
But now that Feng Ming has awakened, she had no more concerns.
Just so happens that Fu Yiming foolishly offered himself, so she shouldn’t be blad for not holding back.
Fu Yiming felt it was very humiliating to be slapped by Jiang Moxi in front of his female companion, so he prepared to slap back.
But unexpectedly, Jiang Moxi suddenly grabbed his hand mid-slap and threw him over her shoulder.
Fu Yiming was dazed from the fall and before he could recover, Jiang Moxi kicked him repeatedly...
Fu Yiming’s female companion, seeing Jiang Moxi beating Fu Yiming to a pulp, scread in fright: "Soone co quick, Young Master Fu is being beaten."
The bar was full of Fu Yiming’s acquaintances; at the woman’s scream, waiters and custors all rushed over.
Seeing the situation turning for the worse, Jiang Moxi ran towards the exit.
Unexpectedly, as she passed by a booth, soone pulled her over and sat her on their lap.
Jiang Moxi thought this person was taking advantage of the chaos to assault her.
But then, she suddenly heard Fu Youhan’s voice by her ear.
"Saving you from danger costs one lesson."
