Auntie Zhao couldn't care less. She definitely couldn't let An Xia enter the Residence of An Xia today, or everything would become a foregone conclusion.

An Xia, who had been slapped, only sneered. He tightened his grip on the hairpin and looked straight at Aunt Zhao, "Mother, how can you hit me? "It was you who asked me to leave with Young Master Zhao. You're the one who said that Big Sis had eloped with someone else in order to protect my reputation and the one in my stomach …"

She, Su Xia, would risk everything today to see who was more vicious.

"Shut up, I'm not your mother …" Aunt Zhao was about to go crazy. She had never thought that An Xia would dare to say such things.

As she shouted, she raised her hand to slap An Xia. She felt that the sky was about to collapse. Her daughter's reputation would be completely ruined today.

Destroyed in the hands of that little bitch An Xia.

Actually, Aunt Zhao's intention was to let everyone know that An Xia wasn't her daughter.

But people had misinterpreted it as a failure to live up to her expectations.

"Mother, you can't not want your daughter. Your daughter has nothing left now …" An Xia said as she raised her hand to viciously press on Aunt Zhao's arm, almost crushing her wrist bones.

He whispered into her ear while gnashing his teeth, "If you don't want to die, then bring me back to my residence."

An Xia's acting was almost done, there was no need to waste anymore time.

Aunt Zhao gasped in pain. She didn't know when An Xia had become so frightening, but when she saw her bloodthirsty gaze, she actually didn't dare to resist, and could only obediently nod her head.

"Throw these people away! Throw them away!" An Xia coldly said.

Not long after, the crowd retreated like a receding tide, and the surroundings became extremely quiet.

Only An Xia and Aunt Zhao looked at each other fiercely.

"I'll return it to you." An Xia gritted his teeth as he took the hairpin and swaggered back to his courtyard.

As for how she was going to deal with the rest of the matters, she couldn't care less.

At the teahouse across the street, the man in white was all smiles as he held a teacup in his hand. "Not bad, you are bold."

"Three... Young master, this Miss An is not someone to be trifled with. " The errand boy at the side shook his head. "We've taken back the situation without a sound."

"The show has only just begun." The white-clothed man sipped some tea from his cup, put it down, got up and left.

He left naturally and neatly.

The errand boy took another look at the Residence of An; the door was already tightly shut.

With An Xia's play, the Xia family's second young miss became the number one figure in the Imperial City. There was discussion everywhere about how she had eloped with someone, and how she was born with a hidden knot in her womb …

"What's going on?" An Shucheng glared at the ashen-faced Aunt Zhao. He didn't dare go out for fear of embarrassment.

Right now, Madame Zhao had nothing to say. Things had already come to a conclusion. She was stealing chickens without being able to eat rice, and had even caused her own daughter to suffer miserably.

As for the old woman by her side, she went to find the second young miss of the Residence of An to think. This time, Madame Zhao's fall was too big for her.

Her efforts were in vain.

"Old master, you have to make the decision for me …" With bloodshot eyes, Madame Zhao knelt at An Shucheng's feet. "Eldest Young Miss, she's gone too far …"

He recounted everything that had happened outside.

Madam An's expression became even more unsightly as she knelt by An Shucheng's feet. "Please enlighten me, Master. An Xia definitely wouldn't do such a thing …"

"Your good daughter …" An Shucheng's face was ashen as she raised her hand to slap Madam An's face. With the strength of her slap, she was able to throw Madam An to the side.

"Stop." Without waiting for An Xia to return to the courtyard, he immediately thought of Madam An's situation and hurried over. Seeing the scene of An Shucheng beating someone up, he clenched his fists.

"Unfilial daughter!" An Shucheng took a step forward and raised his hand to hit An Xia.

He had nearly lost all his face.

An Xia stood there motionlessly, a cold smile on his face. "There's still one more month before I'll be married into the Eastern Palace. Father, what do you think will happen if my face is ruined?"

These words made An Shucheng's hand stop, and in front of An Xia's eyes, it clenched into a fist, gnashing his teeth in anger.

Actually, Aunty Zhao's methods were not even worth looking at, but An Shucheng did not care. He had originally wanted to use this opportunity to expel the mother and daughter pair from the Residence of An. When that happened, he would be able to righteously take care of Aunt Zhao.

However, An Si's reputation had been completely destroyed by An Xia. It would be difficult for him to turn the situation around.

If he couldn't climb to become Grand Commandant Zhao, he couldn't give up on the crown prince.

Furthermore, An Xia was the imperial concubine appointed by the emperor. As long as An Xia was alive and well, no one could interfere with this matter other than the emperor.

Therefore, An Shucheng could only endure.

Madam An was already drenched in cold sweat from fright. She hadn't thought that An Xia would be so bold as to directly face Grand Preceptor An.

Aunt Zhao stared at An Xia in disbelief. When they were at the gates, she knew An Xia had nowhere else to go, which was why she was in such a frenzy. She hadn't thought that she'd be so audacious towards Grand Preceptor An as well.

Right, the current An Xia was arrogant.

"You really have a good daughter." Grand Preceptor An couldn't hit An Xia, so he glared at her. These past few years, her family had been getting weaker and weaker, but she still held the position of Grand Preceptor An. Grand Preceptor An had long wanted to expel her from the estate.

A good opportunity was ruined by An Xia just like that.

An Xia had already helped Madam An to her feet. Her face was unsightly as she looked at Grand Preceptor An. "Father should be well aware that this has nothing to do with my mother."

He then took out a handkerchief and wiped off the blood at the corner of Madam An's mouth. He glared at Grand Preceptor Zhao for a moment before saying, "There are some people who need to be on guard against, that father wants to poison your daughter to death in broad daylight. They'll be able to do so without a hitch. If they ever have any ulterior motives, even father can get rid of them without anyone noticing."
