Second Madam never expected that Miss Sun would be so uncouth. Her face turned pale with anger, and she gasped for breath: "You... how can you do this? I am still your elder! How can you speak to me like this, and call me by my given name?"
Seeing Second Madam so enraged, Miss Sun not only did not hold back but became even more aggressive. Her sharp voice was particularly grating in the night, provoking annoyance!
"Ha! An elder? You're about to be kicked out of Xia Manor, and you still have the face to..."
Before Miss Sun could finish, she was startled by Xia Yuhan suddenly rushing forward!
Before she could react, Xia Yuhan stepped up and slapped her twice without hesitation!
After delivering two more slaps, without giving her any chance to retort, she shouted sternly: "Those who come as guests are welcome, but those who come to Xia Manor to cause trouble are just wild dogs! Wild dogs should go back where they came from!"
Although Miss Sun was not as noble as those born in Xia Manor, she was still a well-known young lady from a respectable family. Now, being bullied by a despised scoundrel, and having been slapped twice, she felt utterly humiliated and powerless against Xia Yuhan. She had lost both her dignity and her temper, which only fueled her rage!
In that moment, her shrill scream echoed throughout much of Xia Manor: "Xia Yuhan, you lowly mongrel with the status of a dog, what right do you have to scold me?"
The maids who accompanied Miss Sun revealed a hint of "fear" upon witnessing her fury. However, this fear was mixed with the sentiment of wanting to avoid trouble in the future...
Second Madam, having just been bullied by Miss Sun, felt a sense of suffocation. Yet after Xia Yuhan retaliated, she felt an unexpected relief! A flicker of genuine happiness appeared on her pale face.
Xia Yuhan quietly observed this scene and calmly responded to the out-of-control Miss Sun: "Oh? Is that so? Because all I see is someone biting everyone around her; whoever gives her dog food is treated like her master. I wonder what my sister's mad dog refers to?"
Her words were ambiguous, but everyone understood the implication!
Just moments ago, Xia Yuhan had no idea who this person was or what her status might be. However, after hearing Second Madam mention her earlier, everything clicked into place!
This Miss Sun was the distant relative of the Madam that Second Madam had mentioned not long ago.
The Sun Mansion, in search of a good match for their daughter, sent her to Xia Manor. Although it appeared that she was visiting Xia Manor, in reality, it was a way for them to seek assistance in finding a suitable husband for their daughter.
Now that General Xia was away at war, it was primarily Madam who supported the vast Xia Manor. The Sun Mansion had given many benefits to Madam and her eldest daughter in hopes of securing a good match for their own daughter.
Naturally, this meant that Miss Sun would be obedient to the mother-daughter duo of Madam.
At this moment, Miss Sun's eyes were bloodshot, and her gritted teeth made the maidservants around her instinctively retreat further: "Xia Yuhan, why don't you try that again?"
Xia Yuhan replied with a flippant tone, "Why should I repeat myself, sister? It's a waste of my breath!"
"Scoundrel! Scoundrel!" Miss Sun yelled in anger.
Seeing her arrogant demeanor, Xia Yuhan guessed that Madam must have approved of her behavior; otherwise, how could a guest act so recklessly in someone else's home?
Miss Sun felt even more irritated as Xia Yuhan remained indifferent. She was furious, so why should this scoundrel be giving her attitude?
In a fit of rage, she forgot her original purpose for being there: "Someone, tie this scoundrel up and give her a good beating!"
After a moment of silence, the maidservants around her stood timidly in place, not daring to step forward. Miss Sun's expression hardened: "Hmph! What? You won't listen to me? You'll regret it when we return!"
Perhaps frightened by the prospect of being punished, the maidservants finally stirred. However, just as they were about to move, they were halted by Xia Yuhan!
"Ha ha, I have never heard of an outsider's wild dog bringing along loyal servants from home to bully their own people! Right, sister from Sun Mansion?"
Xia Yuhan particularly elongated the pronunciation of "own people."
Although the Second Sister of Xia Manor had done something to disgrace their family name, which caused the reputation of Xia Manor to plummet, it was ultimately a matter for the master of Xia Manor.
While Madam held authority over Xia Manor, it had always been the indomitable General who truly ruled this household. If they obeyed an outsider's orders to harm their own people, what would happen if other masters from Xia Manor pursued this matter? They would have to bear the responsibility!
Moreover, they had never liked Miss Sun's domineering attitude. Clearly a person from Sun Mansion, how could she treat them like servants of Sun Mansion just because she had been in Xia Manor for a while?
Thus, with Xia Yuhan's words, they became even more unwilling! They would rather return and face punishment than cause trouble in the future.
Miss Sun noticed that aside from her personal maid brought from Sun Mansion responding to her, the rest of the large group she brought with her had their heads bowed low and were utterly useless!
Seeing this scene, Xia Yuhan let out a cold snort in his heart, gracefully took Second Madam's hand and turned around, then with a "bang," he slammed the bedroom door shut!
Every move of Xia Yuhan was captured by the black-clothed person hiding in a concealed spot. Those deep, shiny black eyes appeared bottomless against the backdrop of the night.
Just as he was about to leave gracefully, he suddenly felt a claw sneakily patting him on the back. If it weren't for the person speaking up in time, he might have acted violently!
However, when he realized that the person was following him, he became extremely angry and pretended not to recognize them, launching a fierce attack!
"Hey, Disciple, why are you so ruthless?" the old man groaned softly. "I just wanted to see your Wife; is it necessary to treat your master like this?"
Cang Yile's expression darkened as he replied in a low voice, "Am I really that ruthless? I came to see you just fine! Serves you right for being kicked away by Master's Wife!"
He said this to change the subject. For some reason, he really did not want such words to come out of his master's mouth!
It felt too inappropriate!
As soon as the old man heard "Master's Wife," he perked up immediately and chattered on: "Pah pah, how can you say that? The way your Master's Wife treats me is a sign of love; let me tell you..."
