After Xiao Zhi left, the dinner party was lively and full of joy.
At this mont, Jiang Moxi had also finished eating, grabbed her backpack and said to Li Tinglu, "I’m done eating, I’ll leave first."
Unexpectedly, Li Tinglu also grabbed her backpack: "Hero, I’ll go with you this ti."
"Aren’t you going to say goodbye to them?" Jiang Moxi asked her.
"No, last ti I went to say goodbye and got lectured for almost twenty minutes, my ears almost grew calluses."
As Li Tinglu spoke, she pulled Jiang Moxi towards the outside.
When they reached the doorway, they ran into the housekeeper, Aunt Yao.
There were many guests today, and as a housekeeper, she had to take care of everything ticulously.
"Miss Tinglu, why are you leaving so soon?"
Aunt Yao was quite enthusiastic towards Li Tinglu, since Li Tinglu practiced martial arts.
In case of a conflict, Aunt Yao felt she wouldn’t stand a chance.
But seeing Jiang Moxi, Aunt Yao rely glanced at her contemptuously and didn’t even bother to greet her.
Because Jiang Moxi was not only unsuccessful but also didn’t practice martial arts, how could she dare to complain no matter how she was treated.
"Well, we have sothing to do, so we are leaving first."
Li Tinglu didn’t even turn her head back, and pulled Jiang Moxi out the main door.
But soon after they left the main door, she suddenly stopped.
"Wait, what was Aunt Yao’s attitude just now? Co on, I’ll help teach her a lesson."
Earlier, Li Tinglu was just trying to leave as quickly as possible to avoid the elders noticing their early departure which would lead to another lecture.
But after leaving, the more she thought about it, the more it didn’t sit right with her.
She was about to turn back, but then Jiang Moxi pulled her back: "Forget it."
"How can we forget it? You are also the host of this family, why should that servant treat you with a cold face?"
The more Li Tinglu was with Jiang Moxi, the more protective she felt towards her.
But Jiang Moxi said, "Being treated coldly won’t kill ."
"But it’s about your dignity. Listen to , let hit that old woman a few tis, and she won’t dare to step on your head in the future."
In Li Tinglu’s eyes, it was a world of survival of the fittest.
You need to flex your muscles from ti to ti to stop others from crazily testing your boundaries.
However, despite all the persuasion, Jiang Moxi remained indifferent: "Fine, we’ll talk when she steps over the line."
"If we wait until she steps over the line, it’ll be too late." Li Tinglu still wasn’t willing to let it go.
But Jiang Moxi clung to her, and with what seed like a casual gesture, she was unable to break free.
Li Tinglu wondered to herself: Could it be that she hadn’t eaten enough tonight, and her strength was halved?
Pondering, she was dragged by Jiang Moxi for a long distance, turning onto the quietest route, which was also the necessary way to leave.
"Moxi, why don’t you join in learning Taekwondo or Mixed Martial Arts!"
Throughout the walk with Jiang Moxi, Li Tinglu was thinking about how to prevent the poor, weak Jiang Moxi from being bullied by others.
But even if she stayed with Jiang Moxi all the ti, she might not be able to protect her 24 hours a day.
So after much thought, Li Tinglu felt it was better to teach Jiang Moxi how to protect herself.
But Jiang Moxi said, "I’m not interested."
"When you realize that power can control the narrative, you won’t say that."
As Li Tinglu was quietly pondering how to demonstrate the aning of strength to Jiang Moxi, letting her willingly follow her in learning Mixed Martial Arts and Taekwondo.
Suddenly, several cars approached them from the front, their high beam lights directly shining into their eyes.
"What are these people doing, shining their high beams right in our eyes, are they not afraid of getting punched?"
Li Tinglu was extrely annoyed by the light, cursing under her breath.
But Jiang Moxi rely used her hand to shield her eyes from the glare.
It was not until those several vehicles completely surrounded them that Jiang Moxi slightly narrowed her eyes!
"What’s going on here?"
Li Tinglu watched as the vehicles encircled her and Jiang Moxi, initially calm, thinking her fists could take care of everything.
Until more than twenty n descended from the vehicles, all looking well-trained, she started to panic.
But oddly enough, Jiang Moxi, who previously did not dare to retort even when belittled by Aunt Yao and seed utterly weak and incompetent, was inexplicably calm at this mont.
Nevertheless, Li Tinglu still positioned herself in front of Jiang Moxi, ready to take responsibility alone.
Because Li Tinglu felt that it was her loose tongue that had provoked these uncouth n to attack them.
Her loose tongue was her own doing, and she didn’t want to drag Jiang Moxi into this.
Right after these people got out of their cars, a man from the last Porsche slowly walked towards them.
The man stood against the glare of the high beams, making it difficult for Li Tinglu to see his face clearly.
But she could distinctly feel that the man had a tall and imposing figure, exuding an intimidating presence.
If it weren’t for the bandages wrapped around his hands and forehead, his aura would be even more domineering.
"Jiang Moxi, if you’re scared, kneel down and beg for rcy, call ’Grandpa,’ and I’ll let you go!"
The man finally spoke, his tone carefree yet filled with coldness.
However, this statent made Li Tinglu pause.
So, these people were here for Jiang Moxi?
But with Jiang Moxi’s timid personality, how did she provoke them?
A string of questions popped into Li Tinglu’s mind.
Yet, Jiang Moxi chuckled and said, "It seems I didn’t hit hard enough previously!"
Li Tinglu didn’t understand what grudges or grievances Jiang Moxi had with this man; she only thought Jiang Moxi was being too arrogant.
That was clearly asking for trouble!
As expected, Si Lin was utterly enraged by Jiang Moxi’s words.
"Still so tough-mouthed, well, don’t bla then."
At the sa ti as these words fell, Si Lin also gave a signal with his eyes.
"Beat them, but leave them breathing."
Consequently, over twenty n rubbed their hands in anticipation, closing in on Jiang Moxi and Li Tinglu.
"How did you offend these people?"
Although Li Tinglu wasn’t clear on the history between Jiang Moxi and Si Lin, hearing Si Lin ordering his n to beat them while keeping them alive made her realize the grudge was significant.
However, after asking, she felt discussing this was a waste of ti at the mont, quickly pushing Jiang Moxi towards the Jiang Family’s direction, shouting:
"I’ll hold them off, you quickly go ho and call for reinforcents."
Even knowing that this trouble was brought by Jiang Moxi, Li Tinglu couldn’t allow herself to just abandon Jiang Moxi.
But Jiang Moxi, observing Li Tinglu’s righteous deanor, frowned.
This person, even knowing she couldn’t handle those twenty odd n, still insisted on protecting her.
If that isn’t genuine care, then what is?
Li Tinglu turned around to see Jiang Moxi still hadn’t left, and instantly beca infuriated!
"Get going, what are you waiting for? I can’t beat them all..."
Although aware that being beaten would not end well, Li Tinglu still felt that, being trained in martial arts, she knew how to protect vital parts and could hold out until Jiang Moxi brought help.
But Jiang Moxi couldn’t do the sa; she was too weak and pitiable.
Yet, when one of the henchn was about to indiscriminately start beating Li Tinglu, Jiang Moxi suddenly stepped forward, grabbed the hand pulling Li Tinglu, and with a snap...
