Qiao Huihe’s brows furrowed even more but she stayed still and watched them.

“Heh, set you up?” Lin Qianchen laughed icily before she slowly walked towards Shui Anluo. “What do you have that deserves me setting you up? At the end of the day, you’re a person who’d angered your own father all the way to the hospital, a pitiful worm unwanted by your own mother.”

“Rubbish,” Shui Anluo angrily retorted.

“Am I wrong? Didn’t you make a hit at your sister’s birthday party simply to anger your father to death?” Lin Qianchen sneered.

Shui Anluo forced herself to take a deep breath as Chu Ningyi tightened his grip around her hand.

“Lin Qianchen, are these your true colors?” Chu Ningyi tightened his grip around Shui Anluo’s hand as if trying to pacify her emotional state.

Lin Qianchen trembled and was overwhelmed with shock. What has she done in front of Chu Ningyi?

However, the situation had escalated to such a degree. Lin Qianchen knew that she could not turn back so she might as well stop acting.

“What? Is hiding behind a man like a cowardly ostrich all you can do at a time like this? Shui Anluo, at the end of the day you’re nothing but a despicable villain who uses her own child to win a man’s sympathy.”

After Lin Qianchen had spoken, the room plunged into an awkward silence.

The usually graceful Lin Qianchen had actually said these words. How could they stop their jaws from dropping?

Lin Qianchen stared at Shui Anluo who pursed her lips and shuddered. A joyful sense of victory rose within her heart. No matter how she looked at her, she was just a little girl yet she wanted to challenge her?

Shui Anluo’s chest rose slightly up and down as if she was trying to suppress her emotions. In the end, she curled the corners of her lips, gritted her teeth and spat, “Lin Qianchen, in order to hide behind a man, you’d have to have a man first. In order to use a child, you’d have to have a child first. Unfortunately, you have either!”

Shui Anluo managed to dispatch Lin Qianchen with that one sentence. It was an absolute takedown.

Chu Ningyi looked down at Shui Anluo as his eyes shone with praise. Not bad, this little girl’s venomous tongue had inherited his teachings.

Lin Qianchen’s sanity completely collapsed after she heard what Shui Anluo had said and saw Chu Ningyi’s gentle gaze towards her. As if seized by a bout of insanity, she spat, “Shui Anluo, you’re a slut. A slut just like your mother.”

Slap!

Lin Qianchen’s shrieks followed soon after the sound of Shui Anluo’s slap.

Shui Anluo’s hand was shaken into numbness though this numb sensation actually cleared her head instead.

Hitting Lin Qianchen was beyond her expectations.

Chu Ningyi looked down at Shui Anluo’s red, blinking eyes. He could feel the tremors in the little hand engulfed by his own.

“Shui Anluo…” Lin Qianchen cried out.

“Rude remarks would naturally require education,” Chu Ningyi commented darkly. He was clearly protecting Shui Anluo and did not provide any further explanation. Just like how Shui Anluo had slapped Shui Anjiao the last time. As long as he was around, who would dare stand in the way?

Her mother and her son. These were Shui Anluo’s final nerves. Neither could be touched and Lin Qianchen had touched on her mother, of all things.

“Lin Qianchen, I’ve warned you many times to not mention my mother.” Shui Anluo gritted her teeth as she spat furiously.

Lin Qianchen had been slapped and the sweet nectar of awkwardness appeared in the area once again.

Qiao Huihe watched but did not meddle because even she had not expected Lin Qianchen to say such things.

Chu Ningyi watched as Lin Qianchen was slapped. He then turned towards the little girl who was trembling with anger. He felt that the time was ripe, at least his little girl had vented her frustrations. Next up, it was his turn.
