Chapter 365 Severing Ties I
Ru Yi, upon hearing Xiao Huaâs refusal to allow her into the Xiao Family, became anxious. She truly liked Xiao Zhu!
Panicked, she turned to look at Xiao Zhu and grabbed his sleeve, âZhuzi brother, I didnât scheme against you, I⦠I didnât know, it wasnât intentional. I fancy you, I only fancy you!â
Xiao Zhuâs heart had ached when he learned that his beloved had tricked him. However, seeing the helpless Ru Yi turning to him for help and confessing she only fancied him, the fire in his heart was extinguished.
He hurriedly took Ru Yiâs hand, âDonât be afraid, Ru Yi, I want you, I definitely want you.â
âYou canât afford to!â Xiao Hua scoffed coldly, âYou canât meet her brotherâs conditions. I wonât marry him, and my elder sister-in-law wonât marry him either. So, Ru Yi, you canât possibly become my elder sister-in-law!â
Ru Yi burst into tears, âThe whole of Zhushan Town knows we are together, if you donât want me, I⦠Iâll just die!â With that, she made to rush toward the pillar.
Xiao Zhu quickly embraced her, preventing her from hitting the pillar, then turned and roared at Xiao Hua, âXiao Hua, are you trying to force your elder sister-in-law to death?â
Xiao Hua couldnât believe that her brother would yell at her like this, just for that woman who had schemed against him!
âBig brother, are you yelling at me because of her?â
âIââ
Xiao Zhu felt a bit guilty, but seeing the tearful Ru Yi in his arms, he grew firm again, âItâs you who are driving your elder sister-in-law to death.â
âBig brother, itâs not me whoâs forcing her, but her own brother!â Xiao Hua said with grief and indignation.
Xiao Zhu looked at Tian Xianhua on the side, who was looking threatening, and his face showed sadness.
Ru Yi hurriedly said, âMy brother isnât really forcing me, ah. If you or your classmate would just marry my brother, wouldnât it be fine? Do you really hate to see your brother happy that much? Do you want to break us apart?â
Xiao Hua felt blocked in her heart. Was this Ru Yi turning everything on its head like Zhu Bajie?
Sure enough, Xiao Zhu immediately shouted, âIâm telling you, Xiao Hua, either you marry him or your classmate does. Choose one!â
Xiao Hua was completely disappointed in her brother.
She turned to Mr. and Mrs. Xiao, âDad, Mom, look at brother, heâs actually causing his sister to suffer for that woman!â
Who knew that Mr. Xiao would say, âHua, your big brother is right. Their affair is already known by the entire Zhushan Town, they must marry. Soââ
One of you two must marry Tian Xianhua.
Mrs. Xiao also persuaded, âHua, you should convince your classmate to marry your brother-in-lawâs sister.â
Your brother-in-law!
Xiao Hua shook her head, unable to believe that after her brotherâs life was no longer threatened, they were still trying to force either her or her elder sister-in-law to marry that thug.
She pointed at her brother and parents, âYou, you are not only selfish but also cold-hearted! I am ashamed of you! I donât want such family members, I declare, from today onwards, I sever ties with you!â
She walked over and grabbed Mengyuâs hand, âLetâs go!â
Mengyu could feel the disappointment in her heart towards her family, the anger towards Tian Xianhua. She comforted her, âDonât be afraid, Iâm here for you.â
Saying that, the two held hands and were about to leave the Xiao Family.
Mr. and Mrs. Xiao didnât expect their daughter to be so resolute, to leave home overnight.
Mr. Xiao was shocked by his daughterâs boldness; he had allowed her to study, and she turned out like this, not even listening to her parents?
And Mrs. Xiao, she couldnât believe that her daughter didnât want her anymore.
She hadnât forced her to marry that thug Tian Xianhua, she had only asked her to persuade her sworn elder sister to marry him. How could she not understand a motherâs heart? Could she not know how ruthless that Tian Xianhua was, that they couldnât afford to offend him?
