Originally, when Jiang Shangwen and his wife Wang Lihua saw their son being grabbed by the ear by a woman, their hearts ached unbearably.
Then, when they heard what the Town Chiefâs wife had said, both of their brows furrowed deeply.
However, considering their son had caused such a big trouble, and with so many people watching, it wasnât appropriate for them to openly protect their child.
In fact, their son was often causing trouble.
The couple had dealt with many similar incidents before and had grown accustomed to it.
âWe are Shuqingâs parents.
Madam, may we know what wrong has our child committed?â Wang Lihua asked cautiously.
Being well aware of her own family matters, she knew her husband was old-fashioned and direct in his speech, often offending others with his blunt words.
Therefore, to quickly defuse the situation, she often spoke first, uttering pleasant words to soothe the atmosphere.
âYou two old fools, so youâre this little bastardâs parents?â the Town Chiefâs wife snorted coldly.
It was no surprise that she spoke without any restraint.
Her name was Zhang Zelan, and as the Town Chiefâs wife, she had developed an arrogant and domineering personality.
Even her husband was somewhat afraid of her, let alone others.
Being scolded as old fools by this woman, Jiang Shangwen and Wang Lihuaâs frowns grew even tighter.
But since she was the Town Chiefâs wife, and they were ordinary people, how could they dare to offend her?
Seeing that the couple did not show any anger, Zhang Zelan became even more arrogant.
She then fiercely pulled the boy called Jiang Shuqing, pointed at his nose, and said to the parents, âHow on earth did you raise this little brat?
Not only does he fight and cause trouble, but he also bites people.
Look carefully, this is what he did to my sonâs hand!â
While speaking, Zhang Zelan grabbed her sonâs hand, saying, âLook at this, thereâs a blueish bite mark on my sonâs hand, all thanks to your little brat!â
The crowd looked at her sonâs hand.
While there was indeed a bite mark, to say it was blue was an exaggeration; there was no such thing.
The most infuriating part was her sonâs attitude which was also very arrogant, âMom, I donât care, this little bumpkin dared to bite me.
I want him to kneel and apologize to me and also compensate for the medical expenses.â
âTongtong, youâre right.
Mom supports you!â Zhang Zelan loudly proclaimed.
âAs if I, the young master, would apologize and compensate trash like you.
No way!â But it was Jiang Shuqing, clenching his fists, who retorted indignantly.
Damn, this kid has a stubborn streak, huh?
Calling himself âyoung masterâ, huh?
He does have a bit of the air I had back in the days, heh!
Ye Haochuan glanced sideways and took another look at the boy, Jiang Shuqing.
âIf you donât apologize and compensate, I will beat you to death!â Zhang Zelanâs son Tongtong immediately started to shout, clenching his fists, ready to fight.
âWhoâs afraid of whom?
If you dare to hit me, Iâll bite you to death!â Jiang Shuqing was not frightened in the least.
At that moment, Jiang Shangwen suddenly scolded loudly, âShut up, you brat!
Causing trouble and still acting so righteous?â
âDad, it wasnât me who caused trouble.
Itâs that trash who was bullying a girl, and I couldnât stand it, so I stepped in.
Look at my face, itâs all from this trashâs fists.
He provoked me first, so I bit him.
And look at that trash, he doesnât have a single injury on himâŚâ Jiang Shuqing, face flushed with anger, shouted indignantly.
Upon hearing this, the onlookers started to buzz with heated discussions.
Everyone had a conscience; Tongtong bullying a little girl was wrong to start with, and Zhang Zelan stepping up to protect her son was even more excessive, clearly using her power to bully others.
âYou little brat, after biting someone, you still dare to be so defiant?
If your parents wonât discipline you, I, as the Old Witch, will do it for them today!â Zhang Zelan, furious, was about to slap him.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuqing was not so easy to handle.
He twisted his head, struggled free from her grip, and then bit hard on her wrist, causing Zhang Zelan to scream on the spot, âYou little bastard, how dare you bite me!
Iâll kill you with my own handsâŚâ
But Jiang Shuqing was very agile, and he quickly hid behind his mother, Wang Lihua.
Wang Lihua, being protective of her child, hastily shielded him and tried to calm Zhang Zelan, âMadam, please calm down.
Heâs still a child, we will educate him properlyâŚâ
âOld bag, get out of the way!
Quit putting on this act of playing the protective parentâŚâ Zhang Zelan was furious and in no mood to listen.
Being called an âold bagâ once again, Wang Lihua felt an infuriating fire burning inside her, but she was too accustomed to being honest and submissive to dare to retort.
However, this time, it had provoked Jiang Shuying, who had always kept her anger under control.
She was now a changed person, with her postnatal cultivation giving her a strong sense of confidence.
Although she was a bit timid in front of her strict parents, she was formidable in front of others.
Without waiting for an explanation, Shuying stepped forward and yanked Zhang Zelan away, tossing the sharp-tongued woman off balance.
Zhang Zelan finally managed to stabilize herself, and her heart was seething with anger.
Seeing her opponent was a young girl who was even prettier than herself, her indignation was beyond words.
She cursed, âYou little slut, how dare you grab at me?â
With that, the woman swung her hand for a slap.
All the onlookers felt too sympathetic to watch, thinking to themselves how such a delicate girl couldnât possibly withstand that slap.
Only Ye Haochuan remained indifferent.
That shrew dares to make a move on Shuying; sheâs clearly seeking death!
As expected, just as the shrewâs palm was about to land on Jiang Shuyingâs tender cheek, it was mysteriously blocked and then rebounded back, accompanied by the woman shrieking in pain, which was even more astonishing.
This bizarre scene took everyone by surprise, with Jiang Shangwen and Wang Lihua looking especially puzzled and couldnât understand how the womanâs slap didnât hit their daughterâs face.
Serves her right!
Jiang Shuying snorted to herself, having deliberately released her True Qi a moment ago to form a True Qi Shield.
Naturally, when the shrewâs palm hit it, the slap was rebounded, and pain was inevitable.
âYou know, madam, itâs common for kids to fight.
As adults, we should find out what the problem is and then resolve the conflict, not lose our temper and throw tantrums like youâre doing,â Jiang Shuying said with a snort.
The surrounding crowd nodded in agreement, thinking the young woman spoke sensibly and appropriately.
Zhang Zelan shook off the pain in her hand, feeling a bit better but glaring at Jiang Shuying, though not daring to lash out again.
What had happened just now left her wary.
âWho are you, miss, to interfere so much?â Zhang Zelan said angrily.
âOld Witch, watch your mouth.
This young lady here is Jiang Shuqingâs sister,â Shuying said, no longer intimidated after the previous incident.
âSo, youâre birds of a feather,â Zhang Zelan sneered through clenched teeth.
âHow dare you push me!
Iâll show you whoâs boss!â In her fury, she had completely forgotten her recent lesson and once again made a move.
But Jiang Shuying didnât need to lift a finger; once again Zhang Zelanâs punch met the True Qi Shield, and this time she collapsed on the ground, howling in pain.
This left everyone even more astounded, particularly Jiang Shangwen and Wang Lihua, who wondered how their daughter had done it.
Jiang Shuqing, however, was brimming with excitement.
In his memory, his sister had never been so powerful.
He cheered exuberantly, âSister is mighty, sister is mighty!â
Jiang Shuying glanced at her brother, smiled slightly, and mocked Zhang Zelan, who was wailing like a slaughtered pig on the ground, âYou know, big sister, you seem like an educated, respectable person.
How can you resort to hitting people so easily?
Even I, a younger sister, have more class than you.â
Ye Haochuan almost laughed out loud, surprised to find that Shuying, this little spitfire, was also quite a sharp-tongued one!
