Chapter 699: Chapter 699: I am Not Part of Your Family
“Grandfather, I was wrong. Can you let me off just this once?” Zhu Hongyun rushed over to Tong Tiehu, immediately falling to her knees. Tears started to flood her eyes, and she began to sob uncontrollably.
Did she dare to cause havoc in her mother’s family kitchen?
She didn’t have the courage.
Her brother and sister-in-law would eat her alive!
“You are kneeling to the wrong person,” Tong Tiehu stated expressionlessly, “If you want to kneel, kneel to Xiaomai.”
Upon hearing these words, Zhu Hongyun paused her sobbing, tearfully looking over at Qiao Xiaomai.
Qiao Xiaomai’s demeanor remained icy, “Kneeling to me won’t do you any good, today, I am stone-hearted and ruthless.”
“You seriously have no regard for sister-in-law relationships?!” Zhu Hongyun asked, her voice tinged with anger, reminiscent of the day she reprimanded Qiao Xiaomai at the Zuixian Building.
Qiao Xiaomai let out a cold laugh, “Give it up. Unless you drop dead, you’d better just head back to Zhu Village.”
It’s so liberating to be the villain.
With that, she waved the axe in her hand and declared, “Everyone in the Courtyard, listen up! When I do things, I usually start off being friendly and show consideration for family ties, if you want something, I’ll give.”
“As for all of you, I’ve given you what was due: silver, allowances, and even face.”
“But clearly, you don’t see me as family. All you think about is how to get more benefits from me, such ugliness, I wish I could vomit last night’s leftovers on all your faces.”
“Family ties? Those minuscule familial bonds you had with me have all been used up.”
“So, don’t ever think about using ‘we are family’ as an excuse anymore. I don’t see you as family; you hold no respect here.”
“If you want to keep stirring up trouble under the name of family in the future, don’t blame me if I smack you dead.”
“Cutting ties? I’ve done it once before, it wouldn’t impossible for me to do it again.”
At this point, Qiao Xiaomai paused, and then turned to Tong Sanlang, “Tong Sanlang, do you think what I’ve said is reasonable?”
Tong Sanlang, his handsome face numb, mechanically nodded his head, “Yes, your words…they make sense.”
Qiao Xiaomai was forcing him to choose between her and his family today.
And her reasoning was more than justified: it was the Tong Family who first didn’t consider her as part of their family.
So, naturally, she was also not considering the Tong Family as her family. The familial bonds between her and the Tong Family have expired after countless dramas.
What can he choose?
Would he abandon the faultless Qiao Xiaomai and choose his family instead?
His family… they only ever demanded from him.
How had things come to this…?
“Very good,” Qiao Xiaomai smirked coldly, “Zhu Hongyun, did you hear that? Don’t mention that ridiculous mention of sentiment again. To me, you have none.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhu Hongyun was completely dumbstruck.
Qiao Xiaomai’s words were not just rebellious; they were practically blasphemous.
A newlywed bride, daring to declare a break in relationship with her husband’s family, was seen as attempting to defy heaven itself!
“Grandfather, grandfather, did you hear what she said? She even insulted you. Are you really going to let her do as she pleases?” She lifted her head, anxiously looking at Tong Tiehu.
Tong Tiehu was the head of the family. Qiao Xiaomai was blatantly challenging his authority!
With Tong Tiehu’s volatile temperament, how could he tolerate this!
What do you think?
