“She deserved it!” Zhao Yuan muttered.

Shen Xi wanted to give the girl a thumbs up. She did not expect the girl, Sun Ming, to be so bold.

Jiang Xue’s bloodshot eyes bore into Sun Ming hatefully. She called the serving staff to attend to her and said, “You there! Can’t you see I’m being harassed? Drag this lunatic elsewhere and beat her to death. Beat her to death, I say!’

The waitstaff looked at each other. Sun Ming was the head of the Sun family and stood on equal footing with the other heads present at the banquet. How would they dare lay a finger on her?

Seeing the unmoving serving staff, Jiang Xue trembled with barely suppressed rage. If not for the fact that so many people were watching, she would have kicked them to death for their disobedience.

“Are you deaf? If you don’t strip, I don’t mind doing it for you!” Sun Ming said with narrowed eyes.

How could Jiang Xue allow her noble self to be bullied by a no-named brat? She wound up her uninjured arm, preparing to slap Sun Ming.

However, Sun Ming beat Jiang Xue to the punch, slapping her with more force than her dainty form would suggest she possessed.

“What’s this?” Sun Ming sneered at Jiang Xue in disgust.

Sun Ming picked up a glass of red wine and hurled its contents at Jiang Xue, dousing her expensive dress in the burgundy-colored liquid. Jiang Xue was thoroughly drenched from head to toe.

Shen Xi and Zhao Yuan were dumbfounded. Were all women in Beijing so daring?

Then again, if anyone dared to belittle her like that in public, Shen Xi would not have stood by and taken the abuse.

No one stepped forward to end the farce; all eyes were too busy gaping at Jiang Xue, who was dripping in wine.

Jiang Xue, who was alone and helpless, did what anyone in her situation would do: she fled. In her haste, she tripped on the hem of her gown and fell, breaking her already injured arm.

Jiang Xue’s screams filled the banquet hall.

The attendants, who waited on her, quickly went to her aid. Jiang Xue was still a guest, whatever Sun Ming might say. While Miss Sun would likely weather the Young Master’s wrath just fine, they would not have a pleasant fate if Jiang Xue was not properly cared for.

Sun Ming looked down at Jiang Xue, the miserable wretch fleeing, and snarled in distaste. She, too, left soon after, her high heels clicking on the marble floor.

“That was incredible, don’t you think?” Zheng Huai said to Shen Xi, seemingly appearing out of thin air.

Zhao Yuan’s eyes widened as she registered Zheng Huai’s presence. “Doctor

Zheng, what are you doing here?”

“I’m the Guan family’s physician.” Zheng Huai rolled his eyes. Technically, he was not lying.

Zhao Yuan nodded hesitantly. Eyeing Zheng Huai curiously, she asked, “Why do you say Sun Ming is incredible?”

Zheng Huai led Shen Xi away from the mess to give the serving staff a chance to clean up.

Once the attendant left, Zheng Huai answered, “Don’t be fooled by Sun Mings looks. She’s already 33 years old this year.”

Zhao Yuan’s eyes widened in shock. How was that sweet, innocent-looking girl 33 years old? Zhao Yuan had thought Sun Ming was around their age.

“Sun Ming is the illegitimate daughter of the Sun family. For reasons unknown, the Sun family brought her back into the fold to inherit the family business – I suppose it might have been because the heir died. Afterward, Sun Ming and

Guan Miao, Young Master Guan’s older brother, got engaged. Unfortunately, Guan Miao died at a young age, some ten years ago.” Zheng Huai shook his head regretfully.

Zheng Huai sipped on his wine and continued, “Guan Miao’s death was a big blow, and it affected Sun Ming quite badly. Some say she’s gone a little crazy, and her mood swings are infamous. She’s unmarried at the moment. She remains the only descendant of the Sun family, and Old Man Sun has already abdicated his position to her. Since she was once acknowledged as the daughter-in-law of the Sun family, no one in the capital dares to provoke her.”

“They must have been very close. Otherwise, why would she go crazy?” ZhaoYuan sighed mournfully.

Shen Xi nodded in agreement. Love was not always sunshine and rainbows; it could hurt too.

“In any case, you two should not provoke her. She won’t listen to reason when she works herself up. Since she has been certified to be of unsound mind, you would not get justice even if she beat you up. Even the law will stand against you. That’s not considering what the Guan and Sun families might do.” Zheng Huai was very serious in warning Shen Xi and Zhao Yuan.

The two nodded quickly.

“No wonder she would demand someone to undress on the spot – she even poured that glass of wine all over Jiang Xue.” Zhao Yuan wrapped her arms around herself, shivering fearfully. Fortunately, she had done nothing to provoke Sun Ming earlier.

“Sun Ming designed that dress. It is from a brand under the Sun family. While she may not be too sane, her business acumen is astounding. She is swift, decisive, and utterly ruthless once she sets her sights on something. Maybe her brain is wired differently; even her methods are unimaginable.” Zheng Huai posited, having recalled bits of Sun Ming’s treatment a few years ago. Nonetheless, his words could not hide the awe he felt..
