Songs.h.i.+ wiped his tears and vented his frustration to the others.

He accused the Qiao Family of being sn.o.bbish and haughty. Their Young Madame Qiao, being the daughter of a concubine, and their recommended man, hailing from the countryside, were not regarded highly by the Qiao Family. Despite visiting the seniors in the capital for the examination, they were inexplicably humiliated. Young Madame Qiao couldnt bear the grievance and was even slapped twice. She told them to leave and never come back, and she even wrote a letter severing their relations.h.i.+p.

Writing such a letter was no easy task, and upon hearing these words, the ten individuals listening to the commotion gasped collectively.

A letter of severance? Did I hear that correctly?

Goodness, thats going too far!

What happened? Something must have occurred for the Qiao Family to do this, right?

Hehe, we all know what the Qiao Family is like. Looking down on a concubines daughter and son-in-law is not surprising!

Exactly, no matter the circ.u.mstances, the couple traveled all the way to the capital and didnt even want to be a.s.sociated with their relatives. They must have been offended in some way. And the Qiao Family ha!

Thats true!

The Qiao Familys gatekeeper witnessed the whole incident and rushed inside to relay the message.

Just as Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were about to leave, Shao Yunduan held Qiao Xuans hand and they departed.

Back at the Qiao Family, the gatekeeper hesitated to disturb Madame Lady Qiao, so he reported to First Madame Qiao instead. She sneered, How audacious they are! They dare to bring ruin to our family! Gather some people and drive them away!

Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan had barely left when the Qiao Familys gatekeeper and three or four fierce servants rushed out. The onlookers continued to observe the spectacle.

Witnessing the menacing expressions of the Qiao Familys servants, they exchanged knowing glances among themselveswhat else was there to comprehend?

Tsk tsk, what a bully!

It seemed that Qiao Xuans a.s.sessment was accurate

As they boarded the wagon, Shao Yunduan instructed Songs.h.i.+, who was driving, Head to the nearest medical center.

Qiao Xuan glanced up at him and mustered a smile. The pain in my face has subsided. Ill be fine with just a damp cloth.

Shao Yunduan gently caressed her cheek and spoke in a low, resonant voice, It must still hurt. I never expected Qiao Hongxi to be so heartless.

Qiao Xuan was his sister, and he couldnt simply treat her with indifference. It wasnt necessary.

Furthermore, Qiao Xuan, as a married concubines daughter, posed no threat to him.

When he heard the sound of the slap, Shao Yunduans heart skipped a beat. He felt an intense urge to retaliate against Qiao Hongxi.

He couldnt bear to see his beloved wife being subjected to such cruelty!

His emotions oscillated between heartbreak, anger, and guilt. He berated himself for not being strong enough to confront these arrogant individuals.

Yet, he took solace in the fact that they had made it this far and were poised to progress further.

Qiao Xuan smiled, tugging at Shao Yunduans sleeve as she spoke sweetly, Dont worry like this. I truly dont feel much pain. Look at Qiao Hongxis feeble handshow strong could he possibly be? Moreover, we arent at a disadvantage. See, we obtained the letter of severance, and we even staged a scene at the Qiao Familys gate!

In reality, compared to the letter, this slap means nothing! If it means severing ties with the Qiao Family, I can endure even ten slaps!
