Chapter 712 - Roll Logs for You? (1/2)

All the resentment and anger just turn into her strength of kneeling.

With a bang, a brick of the Xia Family’s yard is smashed by Wu Jinxiu with her knees. Every crack of the brick is like the shattered piece of her self-esteem.

She never expected that she would fall into such a miserable situation for what she did yesterday.

As to whether she regrets it, only she knows it well.

All the people stare at Wu Jinxiu with complicated eyes.

The ringleader is Xia Shengtang but he only stares into the distance as if what happens now had nothing to do with him.

“Go ahead!” Wu You shouts through gritted teeth.

Wu Jinxiu only kneels without moving.

She thought it was good enough that she could be so humble.

In fact, Wu You also thought so.

However, Xia Shengtang’s attitude makes him realize that Xia Shengtang is still not satisfied.

Wu You feels rather angry too. Beggars can’t be choosers but now, they are just like beggars!

“You…” Wu Li can’t stand it anymore so he mumbles. Yet, he is glared at by Wu You.

“Shut up!”

Wu Li’s Adam’s apple moves. Then, he suddenly takes a few steps forward and reaches out his hand to drag Wu Jinxiu over.

“Rise! I’ll do it for you!” Wu Li says, slightly trembling.

Wu Jinxiu stares at him and doesn’t dare to believe this.

“Wu Li, come back here!” Wu You flies into a rage.

“You…”

“Since you want to go on your knees, you two can do it together,” Xia Shengtang suddenly says, “I love to help others.”

Wu You’s face instantly turns livid with rage.

“Wu Li, it has nothing to do with you.” Wu Jinxiu heaves a sigh.

“You are from the Wu Family. So am I. How can it have nothing to do with me?” Wu Li shakes his head with a bitter smile. “Mr. Xia, can’t you really show any mercy?”

“Show some mercy?” Xia Shengtang gives a surprised look and asks, “Did I ask you to do so? Since you are unwilling to, why did you request punishment? So you were just saying? A hypocritical act?”

Wu Li is speechless.

That is the truth.

However, Xia Shengtang has said so.

Can they really nod shamelessly to suggest what Xia Shengtang said is right?

Can they be so cheeky?

Even if Wu Li has the cheek to do that, Wu You won’t allow it to happen.

Although it is a shameless thing that they apologize to Xia Lu on their knees, going back on their words will not only embarrass them but the whole Wu Family.

Moreover, the people of the Wu Family are here to propose marriage to Xia Lu.

If the marriage has not been proposed yet but they become notorious for being hypocritical, Wu You must be furious.

The Wu Family can’t afford to lose face like this.

“Ahem. Shengtang, how about letting go?” Xia Mu turns around and whispers to Xia Shengtang, “We are a family. Why do we fuss about such a trivial matter?”

Xia Shengtang stares at his father with a teasing look, asking, “Let go? You don’t want the dignity of the Xia Family?”

Xia Mu feels a headache.

Actually, he is aware of one thing.

That is, Xia Lu and Xia Shengtang never take their father seriously.
