Time passed.
The banquet gradually filled with guests.
The food area nearby was stocked with delicacies ready to be taken at any time.
Su Muwan, who had been on edge for three days, finally felt hungry.
Su Muwan sat at a small square table.
The table was filled with food.
Zhu Lan, Shen Fei, and others stood guard around the hall, preventing any unexpected incidents.
Su Muwan savored the desserts with delight.
Great, everything is normal at today's family banquet!
As long as things remain this peaceful, I'll be able to get through the day perfectly!
Qin Luo stood guard behind Su Muwan, watching her eat like a hamster.
He couldn't help but smile.
So this big villain likes sweet foods.
"Qin Luo, you should eat too."
Su Muwan didn't forget about Qin Luo, so she reached out and handed him a small cake.
"Thank you, young miss."
Just as Qin Luo was about to take it,
A laugh that made Su Muwan frown came from nearby: "Oh my, if it isn't little sister Muwan! You've become even prettier after all these years! By the way, have you found a boyfriend yet?"
"My Shuai Shuai is already five years old this year."
"Shuai Shuai, look, this is the Su Muwan that mommy's always told you about."
Su Muwan looked in the direction of the voice.
She saw a woman walking towards her with a smile, holding the hand of a boy with a bowl cut hairstyle, wearing overalls, with his hand in his mouth and a runny nose.
Qin Luo blinked as he watched.
What's this brat's name?? Shuai Shuai?
Qin Luo looked at the boy, finding it hard to associate him with the word "handsome".
The bowl-cut boy heard his mother's words.
*Sniff*
He first sniffled, then curiously looked at Su Muwan.
Then he pointed at Su Muwan with the finger he had been sucking and mockingly said, "Mommy! Is this the 25-year-old Su Muwan who still doesn't have a boyfriend?"
She tugged her son's hand and said to him cheerfully, "Shuai Shuai, that's not nice to say. Muwan is your big sister, quickly apologize to her."
Shuai Shuai, however, broke free from Su Fang's hand and made a face at Su Muwan: "Bleh bleh bleh, I won't apologize to a woman nobody wants!"
"How rude, Shuai Shuai. Is this how mommy taught you?"
After briefly scolding him, Su Fang turned to Su Muwan, whose expression had darkened, and said with a smile, "Oh my, Shuai Shuai is just a child! Kids say the darndest things! Don't mind him, don't mind him!"
Then, Su Fang feigned concern and said, "But little sister Muwan, my Shuai Shuai is right about one thing."
"We women should just focus on getting married and having children, why don't you leave the family affairs to your uncle and his family to manage?"
"What's the point of practicing martial arts all day?"
What's the point of practicing martial arts all day?
Hearing this, Su Muwan clenched her fists tightly.
The smile on her face gradually became harder to maintain.
The Su family is a martial arts family, if not focusing on martial arts, should we be doing acrobatics instead?
This Su Fang clearly didn't come with good intentions.
In my past life, there were a few years when I couldn't stand their mockery, so I lashed out violently, which greatly disappointed grandfather.
This life... I must not let that happen again.
Some of the relatives around looked on with schadenfreude.
Others shook their heads and sighed quietly.
Yuwen Hua sat at a distance, watching Su Muwan's side with amusement.
Interesting, she can endure even this?
That's right.
This Su Fang was sent by him, with the purpose of seeing how long this Miss Su could endure.
On Su Fang's side.
Seeing that Su Muwan could still hold back, she changed tactics. Her eyes rolled, and she patted the head of the little boy beside her.
The little boy seemed to have been instructed beforehand.
So he tugged on Su Fang's clothes, then pointed at the cake in Su Muwan's hand while sniffling, and said, "Mommy, I want the cake that woman is holding."
"Oh, Shuai Shuai wants to eat cake."
Su Fang smiled, then looked at Su Muwan and said, "Little sister Muwan, do you still want that cake in your hand? If not, why don't you give it to my Shuai Shuai?"
"He's still a child, growing up, so he needs to eat well."
"We don't usually get to eat at these family banquets, so Shuai Shuai, you should eat more this time."
As she spoke, Su Fang looked at Su Muwan and said in a sarcastic tone, "As a thank you, big sister here has many high-quality single men, although they're all over thirty, but you're at that age now, you can't be picky anymore, right?"
With these words.
The aunts and uncles present quietly mocked.
This Su Muwan gets taunted by them at every family banquet, and in the past, she would always lose control and lash out.
This time, it must be the same!
When she makes a fool of herself in front of Old Master Su, how could the position of family head fall to Su Muwan?
Su Fang naturally thought the same, she was not only following Yuwen Hua's orders, but also making an effort for her husband to inherit the Su family.
Su Muwan suppressed the anger in her heart.
Endure... don't endure... endure... don't endure... Great, I'm turning into the Dragon King too.
But... I can't follow the old path... but... I'm really upset... want to hit someone... but... I can't follow the old path...
Seeing Su Muwan seemingly unable to suppress her anger, Su Fang spoke even more disingenuously, "Muwan, have you made up your mind? If you're not satisfied with the ones I introduced, I have a few from overseas............."
Before she could finish.
"Lowly servant!!"
"Shut your mouth right now!!!"
An angry shout directly interrupted Su Fang's speech.
Everyone saw the attendant who had been standing behind Su Muwan suddenly step forward in front of her.
Then, pointing at Su Fang's nose, he angrily scolded, "Whether my young miss gets married or not is none of your business!"
"You're just a minor branch family member, who do you think you are to bark in front of my young miss?!"
"Your child wants to eat something good? If he's so good at eating, why doesn't he go eat some shit??"
As the words fell.
The entire venue fell silent, as if time had frozen.
Everyone stared at this scene in shock.
Who... is this attendant?
Su Fang looked at Qin Luo who had suddenly stood out in disbelief, and when she realized his identity was just an attendant, anger and annoyance surged in her heart. She immediately screamed, "What did you say?! A mere attendant dares to insult......"
However, before she could finish.
Slap!
A crisp and loud slap rang out.
Qin Luo stepped forward without hesitation, slapped Su Fang hard across the face, and roared, "Lowly servant!!"
"Ah!"
Su Fang fell to the ground, clutching her cheek in pain.
She stared at Qin Luo with wide eyes, her face full of disbelief, clearly unable to accept what had just happened.
She had only intended to provoke Su Muwan, never imagining she would be treated like this.
I... I was actually hit?? And by an attendant?
An endless surge of grievance and resentment welled up in Su Fang's heart. Didn't this attendant know who she was?
Instantly, an even more humiliating emotion washed over her.
The snotty little boy, seeing his mother being hit, immediately fell to the ground in fear, and a foul smell appeared.
He... had wet himself in fear.
Su Fang came to her senses and got up, screaming at Qin Luo in an unseemly manner, "You little bastard! How dare you......"
Slap!
"Ah!"
Before she could finish.
Qin Luo stepped forward and slapped her again, directly emptying Su Fang's mind of all thoughts.
Her cheeks stung fiercely on both sides, and her ears were ringing, clearly dazed from the slaps.
Su Muwan on the other side also came to her senses and stood up, her mind suddenly clear and refreshed.
But!
No! She had already figured it out, this person was sent by Yuwen Hua deliberately to provoke her.
So she couldn't let Qin Luo fall into the trap!
Just as Su Muwan was thinking about telling Qin Luo to stop,
A righteous voice rang out.
"You, a mere attendant, dare to lay hands on a member of the Su family?"
"You even scared a child to tears. Miss Su, is this how you teach your subordinates?"
As the words fell.
Su Muwan and Qin Luo looked over.
They saw Yuwen Hua sitting in his seat with a righteous expression, his face serious and pained: "Although I'm not a member of the Su family, I can't stand to see this kind of abuse of power to bully others."
"Miss Su, you are unworthy of your position and utterly unfit to be the family head."
With these words.
Su Fang, who had fallen to the ground, came to her senses and screamed with a tearful voice, "Young Master Yuwen, please help me!"
The crowd around them began to criticize Su Muwan.
"Hmph! Su Muwan, you're truly arrogant! It was bad enough that you disrespected us before, but now you dare to disrupt the family banquet?"
"Exactly! Su Muwan's audacity has become a habit. Letting someone like her become the family head would be a misfortune for our Su Family!"
"Yes, Young Master Yuwen, please be the judge of this!"
The emotions of those around were stirred up.
Su Muwan found herself in a very passive position. She clenched her fists tightly, feeling an endless surge of anger within her.
Damn it, these people are such sycophants. Just for the position of family head, they would side with an outsider against me like this.
Although in her previous life she had experienced several similar scenarios and fought back fiercely, the consequences and price she paid were always devastating.
A moment of satisfaction only led to endless troubles.
This was the experience Su Muwan had gained from her previous life.
Her past self didn't understand humility, which ended up hurting many people who truly cared for her.
So in this life, she must...
As she was thinking this, Su Muwan was about to leave with Qin Luo when suddenly-
Boom!!!!
A powerful pressure suddenly surged through the hall.
"Cough--!!"
"What's happening?!"
Everyone immediately felt an intense pressure, compelling them to kneel on the ground.
Yuwen Hua and the old man behind him felt it too.
The former's expression changed.
What's going on?
The next second.
A cold laugh echoed throughout the entire hall.
"Who do you think you are, Yuwen Hua?"
"This is a Su Family banquet."
"What right do you, an outsider, have to speak here?"
"My young miss is standing here, who are you to remain seated?"
"You should... kneel down!!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Boom!!
An enormous pressure instantly bore down on Yuwen Hua.
Crack! Crack!
The chair beneath him made breaking sounds.
Yuwen Hua felt his knees involuntarily wanting to kneel on the ground.
His eyes bulged with anger.
What's happening?!! Who is it?!
Kneel?!
Impossible!!
I'm the young master of the Yuwen Family from Wang City!
Who could make me kneel?!
Impossible! I won't kneel!!
Yuwen Hua screamed internally.
He struggled to lift his head.
His pupils suddenly contracted.
Because.
At some point.
A figure had instantly appeared in front of him.
It was that little follower!
Qin Luo coldly looked at Yuwen Hua, who was struggling to lift his head and support his body.
Then he raised his hand.
In a cold voice, he said, "Your head is too high."
With that, he violently slapped Yuwen Hua across the face. Slap!
Buzz--!!
Yuwen Hua's head tilted to one side, his cheek stinging, his mind momentarily blank.
I... was hit?
Why didn't Old Mo protect me?
As this thought occurred to him, Yuwen Hua's entire body relaxed.
Under everyone's gaze.
Bang--!!!
He was instantly pressed down hard by this terrifying pressure, forced to kneel on the ground.
His knees slammed onto the floor tiles, making a crisp sound.
At this moment, the entire hall became unusually quiet.
Everyone widened their eyes, looking incredulously at what was happening before them.
The young master of the Yuwen Family from Wang City, the one hailed as an unparalleled genius, Yuwen Hua!
At this moment, he had... kneeled down straight and stiff!!!!
Everyone's breath... seemed to stop.
Su Bailian, sitting in the distance with a glass of orange juice, had been thinking of watching the drama unfold from afar.
But seeing this scene, she was dumbfounded.
Huh?
You're even hitting Yuwen Hua?
Su Muwan was also shocked on her side.
Was what she was seeing really happening?
Huh? Excuse me?
