694 Little Ancestor
But was still unwilling to accept either her mistake or her defeat!
The way she stared at the back of Xiu's head was like she was ready to kill her. Only if this girl had never shown up in their lives, everything would have been alright. If only she didn't exist. Just as this thought came to her mind, something flashed through her eyes.
Taking advantage of everyone's distraction, she picked up a wine bottle and aimed it right at Xiu's head.
But at the last moment, Darren noticed her act and hugged Xiu before turning around. So, the attack that was meant for Xiu, struck Darren instead.
The glass bottle broke along with Xiu's cry of alarm. Darren still smiled at her and caressed her back saying, "It's okay. You're safe."
Xiu lifted her hand to touch the back of his head and when she felt something wet, her heart stopped beating. Fear started surging through her whole being. And a new fire ignited inside her.
If she was looking crazy before, now she had gone berserk as she tried to rush towards Qiu Meihui but Darren hugged her from behind and held her back. Meanwhile, Qiu Meihui fell down after stumbling on the chair behind her in fear. She looked pathetic lying there but no one came to help her up.
"I'm gonna tear her apart!" Xiu's scream was ear piercing. "How dare she touched my husband?!"
"Sweets, please calm down. It's not good for your health." Darren kept whispering in her ear but Xiu was not even paying any attention.
All her attention was on Qiu Meihui whom she wanted to bite off to death right now. That's it! That's exactly what she wanted to do! She was gonna kill her!
Just as those thoughts came to her mind, she grew even more aggressive. All of a sudden, she felt a touch behind her ear and... She passed out in Darren's arms.
Due to the head injury, Darren's vision was getting blurry but he still looked up gratefully at Su Feifei who had used her hand technique to put Xiu to sleep. She touched Xiu's forehead and said, "She needs a doctor. So do you."
Just as Darren nodded in agreement, Han Bohai offered, "You bring her out, I'll get the car." Darren didn't stop him as he ran out.
Instead, he tried to pick up Xiu but staggered a bit. Xiao Li took her from his hands and said, "Let me help you with that." Then he turned to face the rest and added, "Ying, you help Darren out."
Fuck! He left his wedding reception! He also left his injured wife behind!
This had to be a dream.
But whether it was a dream or not, she honestly had no time to ponder over it as she put Darren's arm over her shoulder. Ah-Si also stepped up and took his other arm as they helped him out of here.
Finally, Qiu Jiayi also signaled his son to take Qiu Meihui to the hospital to get timely treatment before she gets disfigured.
Because of this commotion, whatever Xin Zemin had to say was left unsaid. Seeing Xiu fainting, he wanted to move up but his brother held him down saying, "Until you clear everything, I'm not letting you out of here. Before you face the little lass, you better clear what is going on!"
"Don't we have to follow them to the hospital first?"
Xin Zimen narrowed his eyes, "For now, the little lass has everyone she needs with her. You stop trying to avoid the topic." From his observation, it seemed like his brother was uneasy. As if he wanted to say something but also didn't want to say it here.
"Jackie, let's go. Don't you want to see your Xiu?"
Jackie's body was emanating a strange aura that even Nora was cautious as she called out. But the little man didn't budge. Nora thought this fight and blood must have traumatized the poor baby brother of hers. No matter how mature he seemed, he's still a baby.
She was glad Ava had been sleeping through this chaos. She didn't want her daughter to see any of this. She was herself reeling from whatever happened. The only surprise she got was Xiu's birth identity. The rest was all under her prediction from the moment she saw Xiu getting slapped by Qiu Meihui. Who told her to mess with her gangster best friend?
If she hadn't been holding Ava all this time, she'd like to smack that Qiu Meihui as well. How dare that bitch called her best friend a bastard child? If her parents got to know about this... Her mother is definitely gonna drag, someone, to court for this chaos. She closed her eyes to let off some steam.
And while she did that, Jackie had already walked up to the elders and tugged at Xin Zemin's coat. When the latter looked down at him, he asked in a solemn voice, "Are you really my Xiu baby's father?"
Xin Zemin was taken aback but he still mumbled, "It seems like it."
The little Jackie rolled up his sleeves saying, "Then let's have a talk. Man to man."
"What?" Xin Zemin didn't know how many times he had repeated 'What?' in the past 30 minutes or so.
"You dared to abandon my Xiu baby, I won't let you snatch her from me now. That's not happening!"
Nora rolled her eyes at her brother and pulled him back saying, "I'm sorry. He is a little too possessive. I'm already surprised he had been quiet till now." Then she looked at her brother and added, "Jackie, this is not the time for all this. Let's go and see Xiu first. Aren't you worried?"
"My Xiu baby is alright," said Jackie in a firm voice. "But I need to clear this up before anyone gets the wrong idea that they can snatch my sister from me."
Nora almost cried at the spot, "My little ancestor, no one can dare snatch what's yours. Let's go now!"
