Chapter 688 Mad With Rage

688 Mad With Rage

"I don't mind doing it," Xiao Li replied with a satisfied smile.

"Li bro, you're making me the center of attention and I hate this feeling of having everyone looking my way or pointing at me." Xiu really felt uncomfortable with those gazes trained on her.

"Don't look at them. They don't matter," said Xiao Li softly. "And why shouldn't you be at the center of attention. You're born to be the center."

Xiu chuckled strangely, "Why are you talking like my husband?"

Before Xiao Li could say anything, a voice repressed with emotions came from behind, "Xiao Li, what do you think you're doing?"

Xiao Li didn't even give Meihui a glance as he replied, "Xiu is feeling uncomfortable, I'm helping her."

"If she is feeling uncomfortable, she can leave. Besides, she is old enough to help herself."

Xiao Li's face hardened as he turned his head to stare at her face and said in a low voice, "I didn't ask for your opinion."

Qiu Meihui was shocked by his behavior and his words. When has Xin Xiaoli ever shunned her like this before anyone? She narrowed her eyes at Xiu and the fire in her heart grew even more.

She turned to Darren and said, "Darren, I didn't know your girlfriend is an attention seeker."

"Sister Meihui?" Darren was taken aback by Qiu Meihui's tone.

"Did I say anything wrong? It's my wedding day. Why is she trying so hard for attention?"

Xiu's face sank when she heard it. Whatever respect she had in her heart for Qiu Meihui evaporated at this moment. Who was trying to get attention here? If she could, she'd rather bury a hole right here to escape! But Xiu didn't say anything, she didn't want to create a scene here. It wasn't worth it.

So, she picked up her sandals and stood up barefoot saying, "Let's go, Regan."

Qiu Meihui snorted at her, "And now you want to leave? What are you trying to prove here? Do you want to act like the victim whom I pushed out of here? Of course, you'd want people to see me as a bad person."

Xiu looked back at her, stepped closer to her, and said in a hard tone, "I didn't even say a word. Why are you staging the whole show on your own? It's your wedding day and that's the only reason, I was gonna walk out in silence. Otherwise, do you think I'm Ying Jie? You'd abuse and I'd suffer? I'm Bai Xiu! I don't have anything to lose here, sis! Think again!"

"Finally, I tore this facade of yours," said Qiu Meihui as if she accomplished something. "Everyone thought of you as a charmer. And you indeed know how to charm people with your words. But so what? Your heart is truly black indeed."

"Black? Oh, no! Don't be mistaken! When it comes to dealing with people like you, I don't carry burdens like heart or consciousness."

Xiu looked at Xin Xiaoli's face and seeing that he had no intention to step in, she waved at Darren to not take part either. "Why are you so difficult? And what are you even trying to do here? What did I even do to you? Why are you so hell-bent on trying to hurt me?"

"I'm just fed up with girls like you," retorted Qiu Meihui.

"And I'm fed up of jealousy queens like you. Even on your wedding day, you're turning out to be a bitch!"

"What did you call me?" Qiu Meihui's voice raised up.

Since they were the only people on the stage, no one could see the abnormality going on here. The orchestra playing in the background helped to hush down their voices for the audience.

Xiu didn't back off at all. She in fact dared to provoke her further as she repeated, "Bitch! I called you a bitch who doesn't deserve my brother at all!"

"Just because uncle Zimen and his sons treat you like family, don't forget your place. You're still just an orphan!"

"Sister Meihui!"

"Meihui!"

Both Darren and Xin Xiaoli raised their voices in unison at her.

"Don't go far," gritted out Xin Xiaoli. "You'll regret it."

"She called me a bitch. I just called her what she is. Isn't she an orphan. What did I say wrong?"

Hearing Qiu Meihui's words, Xiu finally understood the meaning of birds of feather flocks together. No wonder Liu Nuan and Qiu Meihui were best friends. They both had the same mentality and the same words. It really made Xiu feel pity for both of them.

But poor them. She wasn't a kind person anymore.

"Aiya! I really want someone to do a DNA test for you as well. I highly doubt that you're a Qiu. How can Weiwei have a daughter like you? She must be really ashamed to even call you her daughter."

Xiu had hit the mark. Qiu Meihui's Achilles heel had always been her mother. And Xiu chose exactly that point to strike. After all, being called an orphan was Xiu's Achilles heel as well. How could she not strike back at the same pace?

Qiu Meihui raised her hand and slapped Xiu without hesitation. This finally attracted the attention of everyone once again. Even though Xiu had taken a step back, Qiu Meihui's perfectly manicured hands still scratched the side of her face.

While Darren held Xiu's body to support her, Xin Xiaoli had taken a step towards Qiu Meihui with a furious gaze directed at her. Qiu Meihui was taken aback. She had never seen him this angry ever before. As for Xiao Li, he was not just furious. He looked like he had gone mad with rage!
