Chapter 712 Roll Logs for You?
All the resentment and anger just turn into her strength of kneeling.
With a bang, a brick of the Xia Family’s yard is smashed by Wu Jinxiu with her knees. Every crack of the brick is like the shattered piece of her self-esteem.
She never expected that she would fall into such a miserable situation for what she did yesterday.
As to whether she regrets it, only she knows it well.
All the people stare at Wu Jinxiu with complicated eyes.
The ringleader is Xia Shengtang but he only stares into the distance as if what happens now had nothing to do with him.
“Go ahead!” Wu You shouts through gritted teeth.
Wu Jinxiu only kneels without moving.
She thought it was good enough that she could be so humble.
In fact, Wu You also thought so.
However, Xia Shengtang’s attitude makes him realize that Xia Shengtang is still not satisfied.
Wu You feels rather angry too. Beggars can’t be choosers but now, they are just like beggars!
“You…” Wu Li can’t stand it anymore so he mumbles. Yet, he is glared at by Wu You.
“Shut up!”
Wu Li’s Adam’s apple moves. Then, he suddenly takes a few steps forward and reaches out his hand to drag Wu Jinxiu over.
“Rise! I’ll do it for you!” Wu Li says, slightly trembling.
Wu Jinxiu stares at him and doesn’t dare to believe this.
“Wu Li, come back here!” Wu You flies into a rage.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“You…”
“Since you want to go on your knees, you two can do it together,” Xia Shengtang suddenly says, “I love to help others.”
Wu You’s face instantly turns livid with rage.
“Wu Li, it has nothing to do with you.” Wu Jinxiu heaves a sigh.
“You are from the Wu Family. So am I. How can it have nothing to do with me?” Wu Li shakes his head with a bitter smile. “Mr. Xia, can’t you really show any mercy?”
“Show some mercy?” Xia Shengtang gives a surprised look and asks, “Did I ask you to do so? Since you are unwilling to, why did you request punishment? So you were just saying? A hypocritical act?”
Wu Li is speechless.
That is the truth.
However, Xia Shengtang has said so.
Can they really nod shamelessly to suggest what Xia Shengtang said is right?
Can they be so cheeky?
Even if Wu Li has the cheek to do that, Wu You won’t allow it to happen.
Although it is a shameless thing that they apologize to Xia Lu on their knees, going back on their words will not only embarrass them but the whole Wu Family.
Moreover, the people of the Wu Family are here to propose marriage to Xia Lu.
If the marriage has not been proposed yet but they become notorious for being hypocritical, Wu You must be furious.
The Wu Family can’t afford to lose face like this.
“Ahem. Shengtang, how about letting go?” Xia Mu turns around and whispers to Xia Shengtang, “We are a family. Why do we fuss about such a trivial matter?”
Xia Shengtang stares at his father with a teasing look, asking, “Let go? You don’t want the dignity of the Xia Family?”
Xia Mu feels a headache.
Actually, he is aware of one thing.
That is, Xia Lu and Xia Shengtang never take their father seriously.
Hence, when he said that, he had been well prepared.
Does Xia Shengtang need to show respect for the Wu Family?
Does he have to show respect for Xia Mu?
“Hey, who on earth is the decision-maker of the Xia Family?” The young man carrying a broadsword shouts.
Xia Shengtang turns around to look at him and knits his eyebrows, saying, “If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will kick you out.”
The young man chuckles.
“If you want to watch the fun, just stay aside and watch,” Xia Shengtang continues.
The young man really stays silent.
After all, he knows that Xia Shengtang has shown him enough respect by letting him stay here instead of expelling him.
As to what Xia Shengtang has on his mind and what he wants to do, the young man has no idea. And he is quite curious.
Seeing the two people of the Wu Family really kneel and go to find Xia Lu at a slow speed, the others all look embarrassed.
They don’t know what they should do now.
Following the two people?
That will be too insulting to the Wu Family.
Wu You looks as if nothing happened. He just stands next to Xia Shengtang smilingly.
“Mr. Xia, how about visiting my home again if you have time?” Wu You says.
Xia Shengtang takes a glance at him and says banteringly, “Wu You, do you know what I admire most about you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWu You’s face slightly stiffens and says with a forced smile, “You are so humorous. You are such a master. Do you need to admire me?”
“No, that’s a horse of another color. In terms of cultivation level, you are not different from a total wreck in my heart but your trait of shamelessness is still worth my admiring,” Xia Shengtang says.
Wu You’s face instantly stiffens.
Why doesn’t it sound like praise?
“But you still have room for improvement,” Xia Shengtang says.
Wu You feels so speechless.
He doesn’t want any improvement in this aspect at all!
“Maybe you will know a man called Gao Ge soon. When you meet him, I guess you will humble yourself,” Xia Shengtang says.
“Oh?” Wu You looks better and says, “Is Gao Ge quite great?”
“I don’t think he is great but he has been the most shameless man in the world,” Xia Shengtang shakes his head and says.
Among the crowd, a few people look weird.
Someone bursts out laughing.
Wu You subconsciously turns around and immediately frowns.
The woman wearing a cheongsam left a deep impression on Wu You.
“Mr. Xia, your family and the Dragon Court are on good terms?” Wu You asks.
Xia Shengtang knows what Wu You wants to express.
“Just so-so,” Xia Shengtang says, “They are not coming for my family.”
“My family then,” Wu You says with a smile, “I didn’t expect my family to be so respectable. Although we seldom deal with the Dragon Court, they are still willing to roll logs for us!”
“Roll logs for you? Do you think you are Bu Lyu Wu Sheng who is good at writing? Do they need to come here and roll logs for you?” Xia Shengtang sneers, “Don’t take yourself too seriously. They are not coming for the Wu Family.”
Wu You is so confused.
The people of the Wu Family are here to propose marriage to Xia Lu today. The members of the Dragon Court appear here not for the Xia Family or the Wu Family. What else can it be?
When he wants to raise his doubts, Xia Shengtang has scurried forward.
