Chapter 14: Severing Ties

Bai Qihan slowly came through the door in his wheelchair, followed by Luo Dashan, who had a defeated look on his face.

“What are you guys doing? Even if you sisters want to quarrel, there should be a limit. Hurry and help your sister up. The banquet is about to begin. You need to immediately head down.” Obviously, Luo Dashan wanted to downplay this matter. It was not that he did not know how Luo Yun had been living in the Luo family all these years, but this time, her sisters had really gone too far. If Bai Qihan were to find out about everything, he would have nowhere to put his face

Luo Yun was about to get up, but when she heard Luo Dashan’s words, she immediately fell to the ground and put on a delicate and innocent look.

Yu Xia adopted the attitude of a matriarch, “Little Yun seems to have been rather irascible recently, and she seems to be unable to bear hearing the harsh truth from others. Little Qiong and Xue’er had only said a few casual words to her, but then she actually threw her sister into the swimming pool and slapped her. They are biological sisters, so there was no need for her to go that far. I’d also like to see how you’d resolve this conflict!”

“So you forced her to kneel down?” Bai Qihan raised his head and looked at her coldly.

Yu Xia was at a loss for words. She really did not expect Bai Qihan to suddenly come back just to help the little b*tch. She found herself questioning if she had really gone too far this time.

“She fell down onto the ground on her own.” Yu Xia’s expression did not change. She raised her head and looked straight into Bai Qihan’s eyes. “Besides, she was the one who attacked my daughter first. According to the Luo family’s rules, it is understandable for her to kneel. Even if she has been married off, she is still a member of the Luo family, so as long as she is in the Luo family, she has to follow the rules.”

“Follow the rules?” Bai Qihan repeated. His eyes fell on Luo Yun, who was lying on the ground, unable to stand up. His eyes darkened, and he reached out to adjust his collar. His expression was one of impatience, and his voice was as cold as ice. “Luo Yun is indeed a member of the Luo family, but she married me. She’s my wife. You attacked my wife, then now you tell me about…” Bai Hao looked around, and his gaze finally fell on Luo Dashan’s face. Following some rules?”

The last person who dared to lay a hand on his men, Lu Bei, had been sent to jail.

Luo Dashan immediately jumped out to try and smooth things over again. “It’s normal for sisters to have conflicts. We’re a family. However, it’s bad for everyone if it gets out of hand. Why don’t you let just Xue’er apologize to Little Yun?”

“Dad, I don’t want to apologize! Luo Yun slapped me twice, and I haven’t even gotten to slap her back yet! Besides, it was mom who made her kneel, not me. Why should I apologize? If someone had to apologize, it should be mom.” As soon as Luo Zixue finished speaking, Luo Dashan and Yu Xia glared at her.

Luo Yun lay on the ground and thought, “Hahaha! These two daughters of Yu Xia aren’t that intelligent, are they? They’re just two big fleshy bags of burden. Just how stupid was the original Luo Yun that she got bullied by such people?” She did not have a high opinion of the eldest daughter Luo Zihan based on the impression she got from these two.

For a moment, the atmosphere had become rather tense.

Bai Qihan’s body was slightly tilted. His thin lips were pursed into a straight line, and two hands were interlocked. He did not make a sound, placing a lot of pressure on Luo Dashan.

Luo Dashan had no choice but to help Luo Yun up from the ground carefully. “Little Yun, tell me, how do you want to deal with this?” At this moment, he long wanted to have the problem solved. If he continued to waste time, he would lose all his face by not appearing in his own birthday banquet. He could not offend Bai Qihan right now. The Luo family’s project still needed his approval.

Luo Yun slowly stood up from the ground. It was finally her turn to perform. She patted the non-existent dust off her body and said, “Agh… I’m a little dizzy. Can you get me a chair so I can sit down…”

Luo Dashan was speechless. He obediently dragged a chair over and placed it next to Bai Qihan.

Luo Yun sat down and turned to look at Bai Qihan. Her eyes were misty, and her face looked a little disheveled and aggrieved.

But then, Bai Qihan did not even look at her!

This slightly angered her.

She cleared her throat and said, “Well, since dad has already asked me how I want to deal with this matter, then I’ll say it straight. I can let Luo Zixue and Luo Ziqiong go for now. However, Yu Xia told me to kneel down, and the two bodyguards kicked my leg. My leg was injured, and I can’t simply let this matter go. As such, as long as Yu Xia kneels down and apologizes to me, the two bodyguards are fired, and I am compensated for my medical expenses, I will let today’s matter go.”

“Little Yun, Yu Xia is your elder,” Luo Dashan said hurriedly. “Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning if you ask an elder of yours to kneel before you?”

“Let me tell you, even if my own mother were to kneel before me today, I would not be afraid of being struck by lightning! Much less Yu Xia! Moreover, from today onwards, there will no longer be any elders or juniors. Since everyone’s here today and the timing is practically perfect, I’ll be frank with all of you; I stayed behind today to celebrate your birthday one last time and to sever ties with the Luo family.”
