Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 424 - 350: Yet Before Long, Yun Xiu Actually Returned Voluntarily

When this person started speaking, it drew a chorus of jeers and laughter, with some even hurling indecent words at Ruan Mian and the Piano Master.

"But Young Master You truly has a keen eye, these two lowly women have quite the figures; their skills in bed must surely surpass those of ordinary women."

"Oh, just look at them, those jade rabbits bouncing like rippling water waves, their whispers of flirting are truly stirring the heart and soul!"

The vulgar jokes sparked uproarious laughter. This group of supposedly arrogant and respectable people were true degenerates, not even as good as beasts.

Ruan Mian was utterly repulsed by these words.

The Piano Master beside her remained unmoved. Ruan Mian assumed she was intimidated by the powerful and didn’t dare to speak out.

But she couldn’t stand it. Staring at the fruit knife on the table, she grabbed it and swiftly hurled it towards the man!

The man turned pale with fright, ducking and dodging like a rat! The sharp knife lodged right into the door panel, causing a shift in the expressions of everyone present, plunging the room into a tense silence.

Ruan Mian sat calmly in the high seat, seeing Qin Fu entering from outside, timing it perfectly as he walked in and began to speak.

"Lord Qin, if you had come any slower, I’m afraid our partnership would be off."

Qin Fu merely glanced inside, instantly understanding what had transpired. Before he could speak, the man had already angrily started to complain.

"My Lord! This vile woman dares to injure me! She almost killed me with that knife!"

"Her arrogance knows no bounds, she has no regard for us on the flower boat. Isn’t it essential to punish such a woman?"

The man seemed to hold some sway in front of Qin Fu usually, but Ruan Mian put on a display, stepping right up to Qin Fu, and with a firm hand, slapped the man hard again in his presence.

"Who do you call a vile woman?"

The man was shocked once more, nearly spitting blood from rage, raising his voice further.

"Lord Qin!! She must have a death wish, she’s too unruly!!"

Ruan Mian chuckled, staring directly at Qin Fu, and said, "Lord Qin, who is being unreasonable, him or me?"

Others could not discern the gravity of the situation, but a shrewd man like Qin Fu was no fool.

To get what he wants, he’d even coldly discard Wenchang, his adopted daughter, let alone disregard these irrelevant playboys.

Knowing Qin Fu was heartless like this, Ruan Mian had the audacity to act so boldly.

She even pointed at those who had taunted her earlier.

"You, you, and you, I found your words unbearable. My lord, I came to Wenchang to partner with you, and yet they insult me like this, isn’t it unjustified?"

Qin Fu saw she was posturing, but for such a trivial matter, he might as well indulge her!

So he waved his hand, ordering the servants to throw those people off the flower boat.

As for the man, he showed no hint of mercy, simply saying, "Young Master You, Miss Ruan is my esteemed guest, someone I personally invited with great courtesy, how could you be so rude?"

"Bow your head and apologize to Miss Ruan, and that will be the end of it." Young Master You immediately sobered up, eyes widening.

"My lord, what do you mean? How can this vile woman be a distinguished guest? She..."

But before he could finish, Ruan Mian slapped him again, almost as if she were addicted to it: "Those two words, I refuse to hear."

Young Master You was so angry his face flushed red, but Qin Fu reiterated.

"Young Master You’s words were indeed inappropriate, do you not trust my word?"

The man seemed to have countless things to say, but dared not speak further. He could only gaze at Ruan Mian’s smiling face, swallowing his rising emotions, grudgingly admitting his fault.

"Young You was unaware the lady was such a cherished guest of the lord. I deeply offended you earlier, and I hope the lady..."

But before he could finish, Ruan Mian cut him off, "I’ve told you, and you chose not to believe."

"Don’t apologize anymore, just go receive a dozen lashes, and let this matter be over with."

"You!"

The man clearly did not expect Ruan Mian to escalate further; no woman had ever made him suffer such humiliation.

But Qin Fu remained unchanged in his expression, merely sighing and ordering the man to be taken away.

As the man received his dozen lashes, he cried out in pain repeatedly.

Though Qin Fu was displeased, he simply didn’t care.

The people around him were of no significance. What mattered to him now were the weapons.

The more demands Ruan Mian had, the more he felt he had a grip on her.

Thus, after the man was punished, he smiled and invited Ruan Mian to take the high seat.

"Miss Ruan, are you appeased now? This is my territory after all. Should anyone be as disrespectful as they were today, feel free to inform me. You are my most important partner, and if our deal can be settled sooner, I assure you, Miss Ruan, you will not be short-changed."
