Liu Yusì chuckled lightly as she walked toward the living room.
After they entered, they saw Liu Yulan sitting on the sofa, stroking her belly, her entire demeanor radiating smugness.
It wasn’t hard to tell she had been well taken care of.
“Sister, are you here to see Mom?”
“Tch, doesn’t calling her ‘sister’ make you sick? Oh, that’s right, only my aunt would find you disgusting—after all, you’re just too filthy,” Xiao Qinglu said with clear malice.
Liu Yulan’s face instantly darkened at the taunt.
“I am your elder. No matter what, I am still your aunt. How can you speak to me like that? Sister, is this how you taught them to behave?” Liu Yulan fixed a pitiful gaze on Liu Yusi.
Unfortunately, Liu Yusi had no intention of paying her any mind.
Xiao Qinglu shot a disgusted look at Liu Yulan. “You don’t count for anything. Stop flattering yourself.”
“…” Liu Yulan’s face turned deathly pale.
Xiao Qinglu snorted contemptuously. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re scheming. You just want to use my aunt’s connections to latch onto the Li and Xiao families, don’t you? Too bad someone like you isn’t worthy of having anything to do with us.”
Xiao Qingyan pretended to scold him, “Xiao Liu, watch your tone.”
“Alright, Second Brother. I won’t stoop to the level of an ugly freak.”
Liu Yulan gnashed her teeth. “Just you wait. One day, I’ll make you kneel at my feet!”
The two brothers looked at her as if she were an idiot. Trembling with rage, Liu Yulan clutched her stomach and cried out in pain.
“Yulan… Yulan… are you okay? What about the baby?” Old Master Liu hurried down the stairs in a panic and rushed to support Liu Yulan. The previously moaning Liu Yulan leaned into his embrace and murmured, “It hurt a moment ago, but it’s better now.”
“Good, good. Take care of the baby—it’s all the hope I have left now.”
His only son was ruined.
He cared deeply about Liu Yulan’s pregnancy.
Xiao Qinglu sneered, “How nauseating.”
Only then did Old Master Liu notice the three of them. When his eyes fell on Liu Yusi, they twitched slightly.
His face gradually flushed red. At least at this moment, he still understood what shame meant.
“Yusi, you’re here… Why didn’t you let me know in advance?” As he said this, Old Master Liu sounded somewhat resentful.
She had made him lose face in front of his juniors.
“Old Master, if you could do such a thing, there’s no need to worry about losing face. After all, that old pride of yours has long been gone.”
Suddenly being called out, Old Master Liu glared wide-eyed.
Xiao Qinglu didn’t care in the slightest and continued his mockery. “Everyone knows about you and your so-called ‘adopted daughter.’ And now you’ve even produced a bastard. Tsk, tsk.”
He deliberately emphasized the word “bastard,” striking right at Old Master Liu’s sore spot.
“Xiao Qinglu, shut your mouth!” Old Master Liu roared.
He trembled with rage. He didn’t dare discipline the Xiao family members, but he could take it out on Liu Yusi—after all, she was his daughter.
But the moment he turned his anger toward Liu Yusi, the Xiao brothers flared up.
“Old man, don’t you dare disgust my aunt. If you’ve got the guts, come at us.”
Xiao Qinglu’s face darkened, his expression downright murderous. Liu Yusi stood quietly to the side, gentle and composed, saying nothing.
Their reactions only fueled Old Master Liu’s fury.
Xiao Qinglu met the old man’s gaze disdainfully. “If you want a fight, bring it on. Picking on my aunt—what kind of guts is that?”
“You little brats! Today, I’m going to smash your mouths in!” With that, he rolled up his sleeves and charged at Xiao Qinglu.
Xiao Qinglu snorted coldly. He wasn’t afraid of him in the slightest.
