"Young lady, do you blame me?" Su Xuan hadn’t hit Miss Bai; he had simply placed his hand gently on her shoulder. He had just said that he was a person who distinguished right from wrong. This young girl had a righteous worldview and had repeatedly tried to stop her mother’s unreasonable behavior. Naturally, he didn’t need to hit her. But to Su Xuan’s surprise, the young woman suddenly said to him, "Take me hostage!" "Quick, take me hostage!" Seeing Su Xuan’s astonishment, Miss Bai hurriedly explained, "My name is Bai Wei. My dad, Bai Yongnian, is the owner of Bai Wei Pharmaceuticals. Uncle Dai will surely get my dad to come over and cause you trouble, and my dad is also a very unreasonable person. You’d better take me hostage! Otherwise, you’ll be in deep trouble, and your bookstore might not survive!" She truly understands the greater good! Her values are incredibly upright! A warm smile spread across Su Xuan’s face as he said to Bai Wei, "Don’t worry, I’m not someone to be trifled with either. If your dad really comes looking for trouble, I’ll have a good talk with him." With a flick of his wrist, Su Xuan produced a Dragon and Phoenix Rejuvenation Pill and passed it to Wang Xuehan. "You take care of this young lady. I’ll go outside and have a look." Wang Xuehan nodded, accepting the Dragon and Phoenix Rejuvenation Pill. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥 She tried her best to hide the tears welling in her eyes from Su Xuan. Just now, Su Xuan had fearlessly invited massive trouble by hitting Mrs. Bai just to stand up for her. How could she not be moved? "Bai Wei, take this medicine first." After watching Su Xuan leave the bookstore, Wang Xuehan handed the pill to Bai Wei, brought her a cup of water, and said, "Please don’t blame my Junior Brother Su. He’s actually a very good person. It’s just that..." "Sister, I understand," Bai Wei said, pursing her lips at Wang Xuehan after taking the pill. "This isn’t the first time my mom has bullied people. Every time she goes out, she brings bodyguards and makes trouble for anyone who even slightly inconveniences her. It’s good that she suffered a setback this time. She’ll surely be more restrained in the future." "Besides," Bai Wei added after another sip of water, "Big Brother was merciful just now. He deliberately tossed my mom onto my uncle, preventing her from falling too hard. Putting myself in Big Brother’s shoes, I probably would have thrown her somewhere else to teach her a proper lesson. She really went too far." Hearing Bai Wei’s words, Wang Xuehan was taken aback. Isn’t this girl’s moral compass a little too strong? Is she really a member of the Bai Family? Or has her family been so overbearing for so long that she just can’t stand it anymore? The beautiful young woman in the Hanfu, Bai Wei, picked up the book from earlier and began to flip through it, but her small hands were trembling... Once outside, Su Xuan addressed the bystanders who were filming Mrs. Bai on their phones. "Everyone, please stop filming. Go and enjoy yourselves elsewhere!" But the bystanders were unwilling to leave. They kept snapping photos and posting them to their social media. Su Xuan couldn’t be bothered with them anymore. He took out his own phone to make a call, then turned his gaze toward Mrs. Bai. By this time, Mrs. Bai had been roused by Old Dai’s acupuncture needles. "Old Dai, don’t call an ambulance yet! I want to watch my husband flatten this bookstore with my own eyes! I want him dead!" Mrs. Bai shrieked the moment she woke up. When she opened her mouth, a front tooth was visibly missing, likely knocked out in the fall. "Ma’am, please calm down. Mr. Bai will certainly see that justice is done for you," Old Dai quickly comforted her. He felt very sorry for Mrs. Bai. With her front tooth gone, she suddenly looked like an old woman. He then noticed Su Xuan looking his way and quickly bowed his head. He was terrified of Su Xuan now! This kid knew full well that Mrs. Bai was the wife of Bai Wei Pharmaceuticals’ owner, yet he still dared to strike her so ruthlessly. He was an absolute monster! At a time , he absolutely could not make eye contact with him! He couldn’t say another word! If he angered that kid, he would surely be beaten to death! Mrs. Bai’s thoughts were the same as Old Dai’s; she was also terrified of Su Xuan. She turned her anger on the passersby instead. "Can you all stop taking my picture?! You’re filming me without my consent, violating my privacy rights, you know that? My husband is a big shot. You can’t afford to offend him, and he’ll be here any minute!" The crowd just laughed and continued to film her. About ten minutes later, the sound of multiple engines echoed from the distance. Six or seven black Mercedes SUVs roared onto the scene! The moment the vehicles stopped, more than twenty men in black suits poured out and lined up neatly beside Mrs. Bai. Only then did the crowd of onlookers finally back away, retreating to a safe distance. "Honey, what happened? How did you get beaten up ?!" a fat man with a golden Hermès belt cinched around his waist cried as he ran to Mrs. Bai’s side, his mouth twitching with distress. "Which bastard has a death wish, daring to hit my wife, Bai Yongnian’s wife?" This fat man was indeed Bai Yongnian, the owner of Bai Wei Pharmaceuticals. The name Bai Wei, as it happens, is also the name of an herbal medicine, making it suitable for both a person and a pharmaceutical company. "Husband, it was him! He’s the one who hit me!" Mrs. Bai’s courage returned, and she pointed at Su Xuan with pure hatred. "My daughter and I came to his bookstore to read, and we didn’t do anything to provoke him, but he just attacked us! Hurry and beat him to death for me!" "You’re really tired of living!" Bai Yongnian flew into a rage and waved at his bodyguards. "Cripple this kid for me, then smash his bookstore!" "Hold on," Su Xuan said, raising a hand and smiling at Bai Yongnian. "Don’t you want to seek justice for your family through legal channels?" "Legal channels? My ass!" Bai Yongnian grew even angrier. Su Xuan was openly insulting him! His wife had been beaten by this kid. If he didn’t retaliate, how could he show his face in public? How could he vent his anger? Rich people always settled things with fists first and talked later! Seeking justice through legal channels? That was something for the poor to worry about! "Hurry up!" Bai Yongnian urged his bodyguards again. "Wait just a second," Su Xuan said, raising his hand again, still smiling. "Your daughter is still in my store. Aren’t you afraid something might happen to her?" "Kid, I’m telling you now: if a single hair on my daughter’s head is harmed, you won’t live to see tomorrow! And neither will your family!" Bai Yongnian declared, certain that Su Xuan wouldn’t dare harm his daughter while at a disadvantage. He waved his men forward again. The twenty-odd bodyguards cracked their knuckles and surged toward Su Xuan. The air suddenly grew thick with suffocating tension. "I gave you a chance. You’re the one who didn’t cherish it." Su Xuan suddenly turned, presenting his back to the approaching bodyguards, and closed his eyes. In an instant, over a hundred people surged out from all directions like a raging tide, completely overwhelming and engulfing the twenty or so bodyguards.
