Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 618 - Chapter 618 Chapter 618 Pedantic Thoughts_1

Chapter 618: Chapter 618: Pedantic Thoughts_1 Chapter 618: Chapter 618: Pedantic Thoughts_1 Lin Qili was instantly furious. “How dare she?”

“People like this have no bottom line. Sha Sha treats her like the best Pengyu, but she won’t even spare my father.”

He Jinlan removed the venomous expression from her mouth’s corner and continued: “Your husband is much superior to my father, for her if she can latch onto a wealthy man that is a chance to change her entire family’s fate.”

“I’ve been reluctant to say it until now, but I fear that if I don’t, Sister Lin, you might be at a disadvantage. From the moment she stepped in, she’s been eyeing your husband and even grinning at him!”

Now, how could Lin Qili endure it? She had already disliked the other party.

Because the girl was too vibrant, too young, and too beautiful. Any woman who saw her would feel uncomfortable, especially someone like her who was a renowned beauty in her youth.

Now that she was getting older, she felt outshined.

She had previously ignored it because of unfamiliarity and the other party had not encroached on her interests.

Lin Qili snatched He Jinlan’s wine glass and stormed towards Nan Fei with a furious momentum. Despite her high heels, she moved quickly. When she reached her, she dumped the red wine from the glass onto Nan Fei’s face.

Nan Fei, who was chatting with Jiang Yang, wasn’t prepared at all. By the time she realised what was happening, the other party’s wine glass was already in front of her. No matter how quick her reaction was, it was already too late.

Finally, she only had time to press her lips together in anger and glare at the other party, swearing to settle this score properly.

Just at the critical moment, Lin Qili’s wrist was seized by a pair of hands as strong as steel. The other party’s strength was immense, and their speed was exceptionally fast.

Under Lin Qili’s incredulous gaze, a swift movement like lightning snapped her wrist.

The red wine she intended to pour on Nan Fei’s face ended up on her own.

“Ahhhhhhhhh!” A scream as harsh as a pig being slaughtered echoed throughout the banquet hall.

Lin Qili’s wrist twisted grotesquely, the fracture was severe compared to the rest of her arm.

“Sorry! I don’t have the old-fashioned idea of not striking a woman.”

Huo Beijiang’s face looked ruthless. He loosened his grip, disdainfully wiped his hand with a towel, and then tossed the towel away. His decision to keep the towel he used earlier had proven to be farsighted.

Snapping back from shock, Nan Fei looked toward Huo Beijiang, her eyes sparkling.

Huo Beijiang’s harsh demeanor softened as he smirked at Nan Fei.

He Jinlan, hiding in the crowd, sneakily glanced at Nan Fei, and noticing that Wei Xiaogang hadn’t shown up at the agreed time, she panicked.

She was afraid that Huo Beijiang would discover she was behind this mess and hurriedly escaped.

The entire banquet hall fell quiet. He Shasha, He Rongxi, and Chen Cuihua all rushed over.

“Nan Fei, are you alright?”

He Shasha looked at her guiltily. “It’s all my fault. I should have protected you better.”

She had been busy discussing with some friends about how to deal with He Jinlan and had neglected the chaotic relatives who had emerged to harass Nan Fei.

“I’m fine!” Nan Fei gently pulled Jiang Yang behind her. “The person with the problem here is this lady.”

“It… It’s so painful! Ahhhhh…”

The entire hall filled with Lin Qili’s screams, and her husband rushed down from the second floor along with He Rongxi. Seeing his wife with a broken wrist, he was enraged.

“Who did this? Who’s the bastard that just signed his death warrant? Step forward.”
