Chapter 683: Can ‘t Afford To Lose Face
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xiao Baili wasn’t someone who liked to talk about things based on her status.
However, these two people were really not likable, so she used her power to suppress them.
This was also taught by her sister-in-law. Whoever made her unhappy would be unhappy.
As expected, Miss Yan and her friend felt extremely aggrieved when they heard this.
This Xiao Baili was so arrogant because she was going to marry King Yi with her divorced mother. She was just a lowly village girl.
And she shamelessly stayed by Xi Rui’s side. She was so annoying?
Even if she didn’t like Xi Rui, she didn’t want to give him to this village girl.
When the Yan Family married the Xi Family in the future, she would make sure Xi Rui stayed away from this village girl and not be tainted by her rustic and vulgar ways.
Although they were disdainful of Xiao Baili, their current status was indeed inferior to Xiao Baili’s.
Thus, they bowed reluctantly. “Greetings, Princess Yao!”
Xi Rui glanced at the two of them. “If you don’t want to bow, don’t force yourself. Your postures are ugly.”
“You call yourself a lady from a noble family? Your manners are even worse than our maids.”
These two people looked down on his Xiao Baili’s identity. Why didn’t they take a look at themselves? Hmph!
Miss Yan and her friend didn’t expect Xi Rui to say such nasty words. If word got out, how could they live?
Miss Yan had never been humiliated by a man like this before. Her eyes reddened. “You, you’re too much.”
She even glared at Xi Rui. “Besides, you’re just a playboy. What right do you have to say that about us?”
Xi Rui sneered. “You offered your face for me to step on. How dare you say that
I’m too much? I don’t mind dirtying the soles of my shoes with your face.”
“Don’t think that you’re the only smart people and others are fools. Our identities are not for you to despise.”
“To me, it’s stupid and ugly to show off your identity like just now.”
She said she had not seen his Xiao Baili at the banquet of the ladies in the capital. Wasn’t this mocking his Xiao Baili for not being presentable?
He didn’t know who was the one who couldn’t show up, so of course, he had to return it.
He suddenly remembered that his cousin had mentioned two days ago that the Yan Family wanted to marry into the Xi Family.
Currently, he was the only legitimate son of the Xi Family who had yet to get married and was of a suitable age and status for Miss Yan.
No wonder this woman suddenly came over and greeted him arrogantly. It turned out that she was coveting a handsome man.
However, it was quite disgusting to make such a gesture, so he naturally did not hold back.
Moreover, with such obvious disdain, the Yan Family would probably not want to get married again after knowing about it.
It was also a good opportunity to let those families who wanted to marry into the Xi Family see that this idea was not so easy to play, and to give up those thoughts as soon as possible.
He only belonged to his Xiao Baili. Other women could forget about touching him.
Miss Yan had never been mocked like this before. She was embarrassed and angry. “Just you wait.”
Then, she looked like she was about to cry and pulled her friend away angrily.
Xi Rui was speechless when he saw Miss Yan running away in tears. “She can’t take it. I just said a few words and she can’t take it anymore.”
Xiao Baili didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. ‘You didn’t just say a few words. You’ve already made her angry.”
The young ladies of the aristocratic families in the capital cared about their face the most. They definitely could not stand Brother Rui’s direct rebuke and sarcasm.
Xi Rui looked at her innocently. “I just told the truth.”
Then, he looked at Xiao Baili with his watery eyes and begged for comfort.
“This ugly girl is coveting me. I’m afraid she’ll ruin me.”
Xiao Baili looked at him and was instantly moved by his cuteness.
If it weren’t for the fact that they were on the street and there were people watching, she would have patted his head.
She smiled and nodded in agreement. “Then you should indeed hide. You’re so good-looking, you can’t be ruined by her.”
She finally understood why Miss Yan had acted like that just now.
The Yan Family probably wanted Miss Yan to marry Brother Rui, but Miss Yan did not like Brother Rui’s status as a silkpants.
However, when she saw them talking and laughing together just now, Miss Yan felt uncomfortable again and wanted to make her presence known.
It meant that she could look down on Brother Rui, but Brother Rui had to cater to her.
Because of this, she couldn’t take it anymore and ran away after being scolded by Brother Rui.
Xi Rui looked at Xiao Baili with brighter eyes. “I knew you were the only one who understood me.”
“She’s still the cousin of that hated Sixth Prince. She’s just like the Sixth Prince, so annoying.”
His cousin was thinking about his little Baili, and his cousin was thinking about him. They were really too shameless.
Xiao Baili also had a bad impression of the Sixth Prince. The way he looked at her was too materialistic. “They’re really annoying. They’re really cousins.”
“I’ll help you choose the material. Don’t let the people you hate affect our mood.”
She had already guessed what the Sixth Prince and Miss Yan’s family were
planning.
However, the other party was obviously disappointed. She would not enter the Sixth Prince’s residence, and Brother Rui would not marry Miss Yan.
Brother Rui was hers!
Xi Rui looked at her beautiful smile and wanted to pinch her face, but he held back. “Okay, you have to help me choose a good one. I only trust your taste.” “Alright, leave it to me then.” Xiao Baili chuckled.
When Xi Rui heard this, he felt that Xiao Baili was saying that he had handed it to her. His heart felt as sweet as honey.
His ears turned red. “Alright, I’ll give myself to you.”
Xiao Baili was stunned. She tilted her head and looked at him when she heard his ambiguous words.
She saw the tips of his ears that were red and thought that Brother Rui was still so innocent. He was becoming more and more like a puppy, soft and cute.
‘Brother Rui is so cute, I want to touch him!’
She laughed. “Okay, I’ll treat you well.”
Xi Rui felt even sweeter. This was the first time he had heard someone say this, and he liked it too. “Okay! ”
Because there were people nearby when he was talking to Miss Yan, many people were stealing glances at him, so Xi Rui left with Xiao Baili.
The First Prince and the Second Prince’s men were keeping an eye on Xiao Baili, so they quickly reported this matter back.
It was rare for the First Prince and the Second Prince to have the same thoughts. If Consort Hui, her son, and the Yan Family were to lose face, they would not let it go.
Therefore, he asked someone to spread the news of how Xi Rui had mocked Miss Yan.
Because of this, Miss Yan became a joke.
After all, many people knew that the Yan Family had recently wanted to marry the Xi Family.
She hadn’t even married into the family yet, and Xi Rui already despised her so much.
It was obvious that Xi Rui, this silkpants, didn’t like Miss Yan, this talented girl. It was too hard to explain.
As for Xi Rui’s bad mouth and rudeness, not many people said anything about it. After all, everyone knew that he was a hedonistic little tyrant who even dared to burn the princess’ hair. It was nothing to mock a young lady from a noble family.
When the Yan Family and Sixth Prince found out about this, they were furious.
When Miss Yan found out, she was so angry that she cried again. She hated Xi Rui and Xiao Baili even more.
The Yan Family could only give up on the marriage between their legitimate daughter and Xi Rui. If they still rushed to get married, they couldn’t afford to lose face..
