The younger sister mistakenly identified her brother when visiting relatives and was kissed by the c

After that, all her relatives, friends, and old comrades from the compound were sitting in the hotel waiting for the wedding banquet. How could Li Guang ever hold her head up again after such a disgraceful incident?!

The more Liu Hongmei thought about it, the more her heart ached, feeling both sad and angry, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Seeing his mother's red, swollen eyes, Zhou Liguang sighed, took a clean handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her, his voice low and steady, carrying a comforting power:

"Mom, don't be sad. It's a good thing that you were able to see her true colors before the wedding."

He paused, his gaze resolute: "You don't need to worry about me. I never wanted to marry her in the first place, so breaking off the engagement is exactly what I wanted."

Although her son's understanding and comfort made Liu Hongmei feel a little better, her grievances as a mother and her fierce protectiveness made her cry even harder.

Her son is such an outstanding young man, a rare find even with a lantern, why should his reputation be ruined by that shameless slut Qiao Mingzhu?!

"Mom just feels sorry for you!"

Liu Hongmei grabbed her son's hand, gritting her teeth as she cursed, "The Qiao family did something terribly dishonest! Our Zhou family didn't hold a knife to her throat and force her to marry!"

Liu Hongmei abruptly wiped away her tears, her eyes flashing with fury. She gritted her teeth and said, "Qiao Mingzhu may not care about her reputation, but our Zhou family certainly does! Let's go! Even if we have to tear a hole in the sky today, I'll rip off that hypocritical mask from the Qiao family!"

Sitting in the speeding jeep, Zhou Zejun's face was so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.

He gripped the oily Bodhi seed bracelet tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning bluish-white from the force, and a cold, hard smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Good! Excellent! The Qiao family is shameless, trampling our Zhou family's reputation into the mud. Then nobody will get away with this! This isn't over!" Zhou Zejun gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead. "I want to see how they're going to clean up this mess today!"

The military jeep sped along, its engine roaring like a wild beast, and within two minutes, it slammed on the brakes in front of the Qiao family's building.

"squeak--!!!"

The screeching sound of brakes shattered the morning tranquility of the residential compound.

At this very moment, the Qiao family's living room was filled with gloom and utter chaos.

The sudden screech of brakes was like a death warrant from the King of Hell, startling everyone in the room.

"Damn it! It must be the Zhou family!" Qiao Shouguo jumped up from the tattered sofa as if he had been pricked by a needle, his face turning ashen.

Qin Fangfang was terrified and completely lost her composure; her legs were trembling. "Old Qiao, what do we do? We must have heard something!"

"What's the panic! We'll deal with whatever comes our way!" Qiao Shouguo gritted his teeth, a fierce glint in his eyes, and turned to stare intently at Qiao Mingzhu, who was hiding in the shadows of the corridor. "Even if we have to tie her up with ropes, we'll get her onto the wedding car today! This marriage absolutely cannot fall through."

After saying that, Qiao Shouguo tugged at Qin Fangfang's sleeve: "Come on! Come with me out to greet them!"

The couple rushed out the door as if their pants were on fire, only to bump into the menacing Zhou family elders with menacing expressions and fierce faces as they reached the stairwell. Behind them followed a dozen or so burly young men who were supposed to be there to welcome the bride.

"Oh, in-laws, you've finally arrived! Come in, come in!" Qiao Shouguo forced a smile that looked worse than a grimace on his ashen face, bowing and scraping as he greeted them. "Wait a moment, I'll go in and bring the bride out right away..."

Before Qiao Shouguo could finish his polite words, he looked up and met Zhou Zejun's icy, piercing eyes, which seemed to want to devour him.

He suddenly shivered, his body trembled uncontrollably, and cold sweat poured out of his forehead.

"Qiao Shouguo!"

Zhou Zejun roared, like a thunderclap from a clear sky, causing the motion-activated lights in the stairwell to flicker twice: "We've had such a long-standing friendship between our two families, I've been completely open and honest with you, not so you could trample on the Zhou family's reputation!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Fangfang's heart skipped a beat, knowing that her secret had been completely exposed.

But still clinging to a sliver of hope, she quickly stepped forward, forcing a fawning smile: "My dear in-law, what are you saying? Where did you hear these rumors? Our precious daughter..."

"Don't call me in-laws!"

Liu Hongmei's pent-up anger finally erupted.

"Your Qiao family has truly raised a fine daughter! A slut who can sleep in the same bed with her own brother—we've never seen such shamelessness throughout history! Keep this kind of trash to yourselves; our Zhou family is too small to afford her!"

"boom--!!!"

These words were like a heavy hammer blow, slamming into Qiao Shouguo's skull.

He felt his blood rushing back to his head, his vision blurred, and he swayed, almost collapsing onto the concrete floor.

How could this be?! Only a few minutes have passed, they haven't even left the house, and they've already exposed the Zhou family completely?!

Hearing the angry curses outside the door, Qiao Mingzhu, who was hiding behind the door, was so frightened that she lost her mind. She covered her mouth tightly and dared not make a sound. She squatted in the corner like a stray dog, trembling.

But who is Liu Hongmei? She's been the director of the Women's Federation for over a decade, and what she hates most are these kinds of vixens with questionable morals!

She came here today with no intention of leaving the Qiao family even a fig leaf!

"Hide? You dare to hide!"

Liu Hongmei kicked open the half-closed door and rushed into the room like a tornado.

She caught a glimpse of Qiao Mingzhu huddled behind the door, dressed in a red dress, her eyes red and pleading for help. The anger instantly consumed all her reason.

Seeing that things were going badly, Qiao Lijun was about to step forward to stop her: "Aunt Zhou..."

"Get out of my way!" Liu Hongmei shoved aside the inconvenient Qiao Lijun, strode over to Qiao Mingzhu, grabbed her hair, and pulled her up, facing that perpetually innocent, white-lotus-faced woman—

"Slap! Slap!"

With all his might, he delivered two extremely crisp and loud slaps, one on the front and one on the back!

The beating was incredibly solid; blood trickled from the corner of Qiao Mingzhu's mouth, her ears were ringing, and she was completely stunned.

"You heartless little bitch!" Liu Hongmei pointed at her nose, spitting as she cursed, her words echoing throughout the courtyard. "What have I ever done to wrong you? What has our Zhou family ever done to mistreat you?! Your Uncle Zhou and your Brother Li Guang, what good things have they never given you since you were little? Li Guang injured his leg while protecting the country, and if you didn't want to marry him, you should have just said so. How could you do such a despicable thing behind my back!"

How desperate for a man are you? How unable to control yourself to sleep with the guy you've called "big brother" for twenty years?! Pah! I've lived most of my life, traveled all over the country, and I've never seen such a shameless, disgusting little slut like you!

"Shut up!"

Seeing his beloved woman being beaten and scolded, Qiao Lijun was furious. His eyes were bloodshot, and ignoring his mother's desperate attempts to pull him back, he lost his mind and was about to rush forward to fight.

Upon hearing the roar, Liu Hongmei turned her head, looked Qiao Lijun up and down, and suddenly laughed in anger, her smile full of contempt and mockery.

"Oh! Look at my memory! I was so busy scolding that little vixen that I almost forgot about you!"

Liu Hongmei met Qiao Lijun's gaze without fear, her words stabbing into his lungs like knives: "How could you be so heartless as to sleep in the same bed as your sister who has shared meals with you for twenty years!"

You two are truly a match made in heaven! You shameless scumbags who can't live in the same bed! You're even capable of such unethical, incestuous acts—I spit on you! Just looking at you makes my eyes dirty!

These words, which were so offensive and insulting, completely shattered the last shred of Qiao Shouguo's self-esteem.

His forehead veins throbbed and his fists were clenched tightly.

He could tolerate being insulted by the scourge Qiao Mingzhu, but Qiao Lijun was his most prized son and the future pillar of the Qiao family. How could he be smeared with such filth!

"Mother-in-law! What you're saying is too much!" Qiao Shouguo roared, trying to regain some of his authority.

"Excessive?!" Liu Hongmei turned her head sharply, glaring at him with her eyes narrowed. "Qiao Shouguo, how dare you utter the word 'excessive'? You're a corrupt parent, raising two shameless, promiscuous bastards, causing our Zhou family to lose face in the Pacific Ocean today. And you still have the nerve to yell at me?!"

"You really take advantage of my kindness! If I were you or Qin Fangfang, and we raised such a disgraceful child, I would have hanged myself with a noodle or smashed my head against a wall long ago. I wouldn't even have the face to breathe!"

Qiao Shouguo's face turned red and white as he was scolded, looking like a palette of colors, but he couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.

He could only turn his pleading gaze to Zhou Zejun, who had remained silent and exuded a cold and stern aura.

"Old Zhou! You...you're just going to stand by and do nothing about your wife?! It's true the Qiao family has wronged you, but so many people in the compound are watching, and you're just going to let her throw a tantrum like this?!"

Zhou Zejun slowly lifted his eyelids, his gaze as cold as if he were looking at a dead man, and glanced at Qiao Shouguo indifferently.

He then completely ignored Qiao Shouguo's words, instead turning slightly to the dozen or so young men behind him who had originally come to welcome the bride and were now eager to get started, and gave them a deep, resounding order:

"Smash it! Everything in this house that's still breathing, smash it to pieces! If something terrible happens and it's damaged, it's on me, I'll take responsibility!"

These words immediately ignited the passion of the group of hot-blooded young men behind them.

"Brothers! Charge with Uncle Zhou! Smash this shameless family of adulterers to death!"

With a loud shout, a dozen young men rushed into the Qiao family's living room.

Upon entering the room, everyone paused for half a second in surprise.

Huh? What happened? Why is this house so empty? It's cleaner than if it's been robbed! I can't even find a single valuable appliance or a Double Happiness brand washbasin.
