Chapter 55 - 55-A Tame for a Tame
“Hey, put on your clothes before you speak!”Yang Shao threw a piece of clothing from the crowd at the little fatty’s face. “It’s immoral. We’re the ones who put out the fire and are still watching!”
Although Cai Wei and Mu Jin had retreated, they didn’t have time to meet up with Xiao Baoxin. Therefore, Xiao Baoxin didn’t know that Yang Shao had appeared here and had even become their accomplice in setting the fire.
The moment she saw him, she was shocked.
As they spoke, the fire had already been extinguished, and Scholarflower Alley was packed with people. When they heard that two naked men had been caught cheating, they all came out to watch the show, and for a moment, it was so crowded that not even water could pass through.
Someone had already dug out the identity of Yuan Chen, the genius of Jiankang City. As for who recognized him and spread the news, it was unknown.
Xiao Baoxin couldn’t care less about Yang Shao. He had been splashed with dirty water by Yuan Chen, so he had to clear his name no matter what.
Although she was the one who brought this dirty water on herself, and she was indeed the one who dug a hole to set up a trap, in the end, Yuan Chen was both acting and standing up. On one hand, he was the wind, flowing, flowing, while on the other hand, he used her as a stepping stone to create his glorious and lofty image of a lover. Since he had gone too far, she should not blame him for returning the favor.
“Yuan Chen, don’t be the first to complain. You’re the one sleeping outside, attracting cats and dogs, causing trouble, being chased and intercepted by everyone, and being laughed at. Did I send this little fatty to your bed?”
“I have never seen such a shameless person like you. You call yourself a scholar and a member of an aristocratic family. Whether it is the purity of a scholar or the breadth of mind of an aristocratic family, you don’t have one!”
Xiao Baoxin was cursing to his heart’s content. There were already cheers from the spectators.
“Good scolding!”
“I’m afraid scolding such a shameless person is not enough!”
At this moment, some righteous man carried the remaining half bucket of water from the fire and splashed it all over Yuan Chen’s body. Some of the water splashed on the little fatty’s body, and the little fatty even wanted to grab the sheet on Yuan Chen’s body to wipe it off.
Xiao Baoxin was secretly surprised. This was not someone she had arranged. It was purely an unexpected surprise. Yuan Chen, who was wrapped in a thin list of curves…It was a rare sight to see in a hundred years, yet she dared to be angry but did not dare to say anything. She was so stifled that her eyes were red. It really opened her eyes.
However, he still had to get down to business.
“It was your lover who wrote to my Xiao residence, saying that you had all sorts of rumors and wanted me to see you today.”
Xiao Baoxin had a foundation in martial arts and was full of energy. Even without wind, his voice traveled through the entire Scholarflower Alley, and everyone heard it clearly.
“As for which one it is, you can investigate it yourself. It has nothing to do with me anymore! The Yuan family is a noble family, and you have a noble character. I really can’t match you. Tomorrow, I will personally go to your residence to cancel the engagement. I hope you won’t pester me for no reason and let my Xiao family live!”
Xiao Baoxin’s goal was achieved, so he turned around and left.
Yuan Chen could not be bothered to argue with her and went forward to stop her.””Tell me clearly, who is it?”
His hand was about to grab Xiao Baoxin’s shoulder, but in the blink of an eye, Youmei turned around and blocked in front of Xiao Baoxin. She twisted Yuan Chen’s arm, and he let out a shriek. He hugged his arm and squatted on the ground. The sheets on his body were scattered on the ground, and he had no time to care about them, revealing his fair, slender body.
“My wife is as pure as ice and as pure as jade. How can a man like you casually touch her!”Tangli came out to clean up the mess, but her eyes were looking at the sky and the earth, not looking at Yang Shao himself. “You’re also called a scholar, why don’t you even know etiquette and shame?”
“What are you shouting for? It’s not broken!”Youmei had a good aim, but she had removed his arm. She could have pressed it back, but he had even dropped the sheet that wrapped around his body. He was naked in broad daylight, so she had no way to start.
Yang Shao stood up at this moment,
“Since you’ve seen what you should see, you should leave. This place is messy, and two men are shameless and naked.”
Xiao Baoxin’s original intention was to leave. However, if he left after beating someone up, it would inevitably be a false accusation.
At this moment, Yang Shao came out, clearly showing that he was in charge of the following matters. He had to accept this favor regardless of whether he accepted it or not. Therefore, he did not say much. He just turned his body slightly and walked away with the four maids in high spirits.
Xiao Baoxin had just left Scholarflower Alley when he saw two men dressed in coarse clothes hurriedly brush past them. He even heard them muttering,
“Don’t let the yard of our home be on fire. It looks quite serious, with so many people surrounding it.”
“That might not be the case. Those two people are good at acting. How can they still have any rationality when they eat that kind of thing? Perhaps they were the ones who set the fire…”
After confirming with his eyes, he was sure that they were from the little fatty’s family.
“Wifey, we’re done here?”Youmei asked softly. It was so exciting . It was just too exciting. She didn’t dare to watch it just now!
Xiao Baoxin smiled but kept silent. It was only when they got into the car and Cai Wei and Mu Jin returned to the team that Xiao Baoxin ordered,””Cai Wei, go find a reliable person and spread the news of what happened earlier.”
“This is easy!” Cai Wei smiled,” This servant doesn’t even need to run errands. Our coachman will be able to complete the task perfectly.”
The Xiao family’s coachman, Honest Liu, was not even thirty years old. He had taken over his father’s job and continued to drive the Xiao family’s ox-cart. He was a shrewd person and was used to picking out what people liked to hear. He was quite popular. Usually, he had to follow them in and out, so he knew most of the coachmen in the various manors. He was also good friends with many people. With just a casual remark from him, he could sing the whole show.
After the public opinion had been arranged, Cai Wei then reported the whole incident of Yang Shao suddenly descending from the sky and helping out with a jar of wine to help fuel the fire to Xiao Baoxin.
“..”It was actually related to him.
Xiao Baoxin could not help but shake his head when he heard this. Previously, Xiao Baoshu still owed him a favor. This time, he had set fire to the engagement and owed him such a big favor. The Xiao family’s debt of favor would probably not be repaid in a short period of time.
Without his jar of wine, the fire would not have been able to burn. Even if she had entered the house, Yuan Chen would have had ten thousand reasons to cover up this matter. They were used to eating Five Stones Powder, and after eating it, they were all unrestrained and exposed their breasts. It was normal. If they didn’t catch her in bed, they wouldn’t be able to fix their relationship.
If they couldn’t decide their relationship, then what strong reason did they have to reject her?
Although he didn’t want to owe Yang Shao a favor, it was better than hanging on to the Yuan family. No one knew what kind of tricks the Yuan family would use. They claimed to be a great family, but they were so anxious that their skin was thicker than the city walls.
As long as this kiss was not canceled, she would not feel at ease.
This time, Yuan Chen’s reputation was ruined. Even if her father came back with a stomach full of schemes, he would not go so far as to climb up the Yuan family’s kinship for the sake of face. This matter would be settled once and for all. Once her mother returned from the Xie residence, she would go to the Yuan family tomorrow to break off the engagement.
She didn’t believe that no matter how thick-skinned the Yuan family was, their son had been humiliated all over Jiankang City. More than a dozen people had seen him naked. They still wouldn’t let go of this marriage and put their son in the limelight to be humiliated..
