Heavenly War God Returns To City

0Xiao Ziyi, however, turned a blind eye to the woman's words and continued to look at him with a very gloomy expression. Looking at herself in the mirror, one of her hands gently caressed the purple tooth pendant hanging on her wrist. Her eyes were dull and dull, as if she had something on her mind.    

    

"Stupid girl, didn't you hear me talking to you again? I'm ordering you now, smile at me immediately!"    

    

Deng Min's voice was sharp and her fingers almost poked Xiao Ziyi's forehead.    

    

"Madam, Miss may not be feeling well. Just let her rest for a while."    

    

A petite young woman at the side quickly said.    

    

She was not a member of the Xiao Family. When she was young, she was adopted by the Xiao Family and became a servant of the Xiao Family. She had been in charge of serving Xiao Ziyi all these years and was regarded as Xiao Ziyi's servant.    

    

Slap!    

    

Deng Min slapped the other party's face and angrily said, " What do you think you are? Do you have the right to speak here? You even dare to contradict me. I think you are itching for a beating. Someone, drag this Little Slut out and break her legs!"    

    

"Madam, don't!"    

    

The little maid quickly begged for mercy. She grew up with the Second Miss. Although she was only the Second Miss's personal maid, the Second Miss had never treated her as a servant.    

    

Today, she could tell that the Second Miss was very upset, so she couldn't help but say something.    

    

Two burly bodyguards immediately went forward, wanting to drag the little maid out.    

    

"I want to see who dares."    

    

Xiao Ziyi finally opened her mouth. Her voice was not loud, but it was firm and could not be denied.    

    

The two bodyguards immediately stopped and looked at Deng Min with a questioning tone.    

    

"What? You also want to rebel? As the wife of the Xiao Family's family head, I don't even have the right to break a servant's legs?"    

    

"Xiao Ziyi, listen carefully. Other people spoil you, but I don't want to eat this. No matter what, I am still your mother!"    

    

Deng Min angrily said.    

    

Xiao Ziyi stared at the other party without blinking and her voice was still calm. She just faintly repeated, "I want to see who dares to touch her."    

    

"You..."    

    

Deng Min was so angry that the corner of her mouth twitched. She could only wave her hand to dismiss the two bodyguards.    

    

She was not Xiao Ziyi's biological mother. When Xiao Ziyi was very young, her biological mother passed away.    

    

This woman had just married into the family later on. Since young, Xiao Ziyi did not really like this woman. She thought that this person's heart was not good and that she was too sophisticated.    

    

Deng Min also did not like Xiao Ziyi and even felt some fear in her heart. No matter what method was used, this girl was always soft and unyielding. Moreover, she had seen through her thoughts time and time again and had ruined her plan.    

    

Although the two of them lived under the same roof, they were usually like strangers and never spoke. They even did not greet each other when they met.    

    

Deng Min had long hated Xiao Ziyi to the point that her teeth itched but she could not do anything to the other party. This Little Slut was soft and unyielding and her brain was especially sharp. All kinds of open and hidden arrows were useless and she would always be at a disadvantage every time.    

    

This time, she finally seized the opportunity.    

    

The Huangfu Family's development in these few years was very strong and their true strength could definitely be ranked at the top of the four big families.    

    

The eldest son of the Huangfu Family's master was Huangfu Duan, the next designated successor of the Huangfu Family. He had been in love with Xiao Ziyi for a long time, and had come to propose marriage several times.    

    

However, that little girl Xiao Ziyi really did not know how to appreciate favors, and refused again and again.    

    

But this time, it wasn't up to her to decide. For some unknown reason, the Xiao Family had suddenly fallen into decline. They had lost a few major businesses in a row, and their vitality had been greatly damaged. All of a sudden, they had become the weakest family among the four big families.    

    

If they wanted to continue to gain a foothold in the Jiangnan area, they had to rely on the powerful Huangfu Family. It was equivalent to having their throat in someone's hands. Xiao Ziyi could not continue to act impudently.    

    

Under the strong pressure of the Huangfu Family and Xiao Yuanshan's persuasion, Xiao Ziyi finally agreed to this marriage.    

    

Therefore, Deng Min became unscrupulous and started to show off her power to Xiao Ziyi, venting her dissatisfaction over the years.    

    

"Alright, you can continue to put on that bitter face of yours. In the future, when you go to the Huangfu Family, you can continue to put on a poker face and see if the people over there will spoil you!"    

    

Deng Min said fiercely.    

    

At this time, Xiao Yuanshan, who was wearing a suit and had a tall figure, walked in from the outside.    

    

When he saw Xiao Ziyi's dazed look, his heart felt as if it was being pricked by needles.    

    

Among all the disciples of the Xiao Family, the one Xiao Yuanshan doted on the most was Xiao Ziyi. This daughter of his had been very sensible since she was young, and she was very intelligent. She had never been worried about her.    

    

Furthermore, the death of Xiao Ziyi's biological mother was directly related to him. He had always felt guilty towards Xiao Ziyi.    

    

She was very clear about this daughter's character. She had never been restrained since she was a child and would never do things that she did not like. Xiao Yuanshan had always let her do whatever she wanted.    

    

But this time, he actually wanted her to marry a man that she did not like or even hated.    

    

Although Xiao Ziyi did not show much of it, Xiao Yuanshan knew very well how sad Xiao Ziyi was in her heart at this moment.    

    

"Daughter, if you go back on your word now, I will go and talk to the Huangfu Family. At most, I won't take my face anymore. At most, I will be scolded by them. Even if I beat them up a few times, it will still be fine."    

    

Xiao Yuanshan felt like a knife was twisting his heart when he saw his daughter like this.    

    

"What nonsense are you talking about here?!"    

    

Deng Min was unhappy and said in a high-pitched voice, "The wedding is about to begin. Guests from all over the world are gathered here. More than half of the business world in Huaxia knows about this. If you propose to go back on your word now, where will Huangfu Family's face be?"    

    

"Do you think that they will just scold you and beat you up a few times? I think you are a fool. If you slap the Huangfu Family's face today, the entire Xiao Family will suffer."    

    

"It's not like you don't know the current situation of the Xiao Family. It has already become an empty shell. If you don't get the help of the Huangfu Family, you will collapse in a few years."    

    

"I don't care anyway. No one can go back on their words today. There are hundreds of people in the Xiao Family waiting to eat. If you dare to mess around, I will immediately call my brother. We will see how he will deal with you then!"    

    

Xiao Yuanshan remained silent.    

0

    

He used to be an all-powerful man with endless glory. Now, he seemed to have changed a lot. There were many white hairs on his temples and his straight back that had always been straight. These few years, he had also bent a lot.    

    

He knew better than anyone what Deng Min said, but he really couldn't bear to see his daughter suffer such grievance.    

    

"Dad, it's okay. I will get married sooner or later."    

    

Xiao Ziyi squeezed out a smile at Xiao Yuanshan.    

    

She could understand her father's difficulties. The Xiao Family had been passed down for hundreds of years. She could not let it fall into this generation.    

    

All these years, her father had always doted on her. No matter what she did, it was up to her.    

    

That night, her father pushed open her door, but didn't say much. He only lowered his head and asked if she was willing to marry Huangfu Duan.    

    

Xiao Ziyi saw that her father's hair had turned white, and his back had also been carried. His entire person had aged quite a bit.    

    

She chose to compromise.    

    

She had been willful for her entire life. It was time to do something for her father.    

    

"Daughter, I'm sorry."    

    

Xiao Yuanshan's eyes were filled with tears.    

    

"Reporting to the family head!"    

    

At this time, a person anxiously walked in from outside and swallowed his saliva as he said, "The Dragon King sent an envoy to send a congratulatory note!"    

    

"What, Dragon King!"    

    

Hearing this news, everyone only felt a buzzing sound in their heads.
