CHAPTER 1258: CHAPTER 246: COURTING DEATH, HIDDEN DEPTHS

The named gatekeeper looked aggrieved: "Miss Song, she came in with the Xiao family sisters."

The argument here caught the attention of most people present, and they all looked over at this moment. Xiao Ling’er walked over and said, "Miss Song, what’s the matter?"

After speaking, she frowned and looked at Xiao Zisu: "Zisu sister? What did you do to displease Miss Song?"

Song Jinwen sneered as she looked at Xiao Ling’er: "Miss Xiao, you call her ’sister’ so affectionately. Someone might think she’s your real sister, just an actor, yet you hold her in such high regard."

Xiao Zisu’s nails dug deeply into the flesh of her palm, the pain keeping her rational. Always calling her an actor, this Miss Song was truly despicable.

Xiao Ling’er said helplessly, "Even if she’s an illegitimate daughter, she’s still my father’s biological daughter. She’s been wandering outside for so many years without a good day. Now that she’s finally back, I feel I owe this sister and naturally want to make it up to her. Miss Song, considering my regard, even if she has done something wrong, please be generous and don’t hold it against her."

Xiao Zisu lowered her eyes and sneered, never asking anything before assuming her mistake. Is this what she calls making it up?

"Sister... I shouldn’t have bumped into Miss Song, almost ruining her dress, which displeased her. If this is truly my fault, then I admit it..." Xiao Zisu said pitifully.

Xiao Ling’er frowned, thinking, "Well done, Xiao Zisu, digging a pit for me to jump in. If I really make you admit it, doesn’t that mean I can’t tell right from wrong?"

Song Jinwen sneered, "So sharp-tongued. You bump into me and think you’re justified. Who are you trying to seduce with that pitiful appearance? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to..." Song Jinwen suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I warn you, you better stay away from that man, or I have a thousand ways to kill you..."

Xiao Zisu’s heart skipped for a moment; the man she’s referring to is Ling Danxiao. Out of the corner of her eye, she glimpsed the man entering through the door, her eyes flickered, her face innocent, but her words were full of sarcasm, saying each word clearly: "Impossible."

This bitch actually dared to talk back to her, Song Jinwen was furious, "slap" and she swung a hand hard on her face, directly knocking Xiao Zisu to the ground.

"You bitch, do you know your place? Hah, you should take a good look in the mirror, toad trying to eat swan meat." Song Jinwen spat with curses.

Xiao Zisu covered her face, feeling her face swelling on one side, sneering inwardly, but looking pitifully said, "Miss Song, I know my status is lowly, and I never expected anything, just wanted to broaden my horizons with my sister. Now I understand, someone like me doesn’t belong here. I’ll leave..." Saying this, she struggled to get up to leave, looking so pitiful that many watching felt Song Jinwen was too domineering.

A big hand suddenly grabbed her arm, so strong and powerful, Xiao Zisu was stunned for a moment, and the next moment she was pulled into a man’s embrace, only to hear the man say coldly, "You are not allowed to leave, if anyone is to leave, it should be others."

Xiao Zisu looked up, stunned, her eyes red, her eyes washed by tears lost that charm, appearing pure and innocent, which made Ling Danxiao’s heart soften, growing more and more fond of her.

"You...."

Ling Danxiao rubbed her hair, annoyed: "Fool, do you not know how to resist?"

A fool, making Xiao Zisu’s heart miss a beat. No one had ever spoken to her like that, in such a caring tone... as if she was a treasure to be cherished in the palm of his hand.

"Brother Ling, what are you doing? Do you know what kind of status this woman has?" Song Jinwen looked at Ling Danxiao holding Xiao Zisu, both jealous and angry, her gaze seemed to pierce two holes in Xiao Zisu.

"Apologize." Ling Danxiao looked at her coldly, with a stern expression that was quite imposing.

Song Jinwen couldn’t believe it: "You want me to apologize to her?" pointing at Xiao Zisu.

Ling Danxiao said coldly, "You hit her, apologize to her."

"She deserved it." Song Jinwen jumped in anger: "Brother Ling, don’t be fooled by her appearance. She’s just a vixen, deliberately trying to seduce you. She’s Xiao Baokang’s illegitimate daughter, and her mother was a prostitute, a woman like that doesn’t deserve to stand with us."

Ling Danxiao was surprised, so she was Xiao Baokang’s illegitimate daughter, no wonder he hadn’t seen her before. Feeling two small hands clutching his clothes tightly, it was a subconscious self-protection, and the next moment, gently stepping out of his embrace, she said softly, "I overstepped; I shouldn’t have stood with you. I’ll leave...."
