My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 344: You reap what you sow, there’s no way to live it down!

"Get lost!" Steward Hu roared. "Your invitation was stolen in the first place. And you brought him in? I see you two are in cahoots, a pair of wretches!"

BANG!

No sooner had he spoken than Yang Qi kicked him right in the mouth.

"I told you to watch your mouth," Yang Qi said coldly.

"You! You dare hit me! You lunatic! Do you really think there's nothing I can do to you?" He took out his phone and started calling for backup.

Wang Teng sneered, "Yang Qi, don't think you can look down on everyone just because you had one brief encounter with Miss Lei. This is the Elixir Medicine Conference! It's a major event for Jingnan Prefecture, not a place for you to run wild. Causing trouble here will only make Miss Lei despise you!"

Soon, a large group of security guards arrived, many of them trained fighters.

Steward Hu shouted, "It's that son of a bitch right there! Seize him and give him a good beating! If he dies, I'll take full responsibility! How dare he hit me! How dare he cause a scene at Baishan Estate! He must have a death wish!"

The surrounding crowd watched Yang Qi with schadenfreude. They didn't dare say anything too harsh aloud but still muttered curses under their breath.

"Does he think he can do whatever he wants just because he can fight?"

"What an arrogant fool. He's dead for sure this time!"

"Exactly. Let's see who can save him now!"

The security guards surrounded Yang Qi and Zhu Benxiu. Taking Zhu Benxiu's hand, Yang Qi sneered. He had always considered himself a cultivator, unwilling to stoop to the level of these mortals. But it seemed unavoidable. In the secular world, there were always some blind fools who insisted on provoking him.

"How did you get in?" a surprised voice suddenly called out.

Everyone turned to see Chen Baixiang and her group coming down from the second floor.

"How I got in is none of your business," Yang Qi said, glancing at Chen Baixiang with contempt. He had absolutely no good feelings for this woman.

Steward Hu grew furious. "How dare you speak to Miss Chen like that? She is the granddaughter of Vice Chairman Chen Guo! You bastard, are you looking to die?"

"Having a granddaughter like her is the greatest misfortune of Elder Chen Guo's life," Yang Qi said disdainfully.

"Baixiang, who is that man? Why is he talking to you like that?" Tian Lili asked with a frown.

Chen Baixiang's expression was extremely ugly. She had thought that by refusing him entry, he would never be able to get in, yet here he was. Not only that, he was even causing trouble! Had he offended Steward Hu? The Chen Family was influential, but they were nothing compared to the Lei Mansion.

"That guy is Yang Qi," Zhang Gong said. "The country bumpkin, the hick we were talking about!"

Understanding dawned on everyone's faces.

"Mr. Zhang, you all go and greet Young Master Chuyun Xiong," Chen Baixiang said. "I'll handle this. After all, my grandfather asked me to receive him. I can't just ignore him!"

"Fine," Zhang Gong and the others chuckled, "but don't get stuck dealing with him. A guy like that will latch onto you and never let go!" They then headed outside.

Chen Baixiang walked over and glared at Yang Qi. "Look at you," she said angrily. "Your background as a country bumpkin is something you can't change, fine. But can't you just be quiet for once? You caused a scene with the guards outside, and now you're causing trouble in here? Have you no self-respect? If I were you, I'd be so ashamed I'd find a block of tofu to smash my head against. If my grandfather hadn't insisted I receive you, do you think I'd waste my time on you?"

"Hahaha, well said, Miss Chen!" Wang Teng laughed loudly. "He's like stinky tofu—stinks up every place he goes!"

"You bitch," Yang Qi cursed, his patience gone. "What do my affairs have to do with you? If it weren't for my respect for Elder Chen Guo, I'd slap you myself. Get lost! This has nothing to do with you, so stop being so damn nosy!" He had truly had enough of this self-righteous woman.

"You! What did you just say?" Chen Baixiang was in disbelief. Yang Qi had actually spoken to her like that. Did he know who she was? Did he have any idea of her status?

Everyone looked at Yang Qi mockingly. They had thought Chen Baixiang was going to speak up for Yang Qi. If she did, Steward Hu would have to give her some face. But they never expected Yang Qi to be at odds with her. Perfect! This kid was a dead man now!

"What are you all standing around for?" Chen Baixiang screeched at Steward Hu. "Throw this kid out! He has nothing to do with me! I didn't bring him in, and I have no idea how he got here! Who knows what he's plotting with this little bitch!"

SLAP!

Yang Qi couldn't hold back any longer and struck Chen Baixiang across the face. "You can insult me, but don't you dare insult my friend. You're the real bitch."

Zhu Benxiu had supported him during his most difficult times and had always been kind to him. He remembered that. This girl had suffered such great humiliation today, and he was determined to get justice for her.

"You! You dared to hit me!" Chen Baixiang was stunned. She'd never been hit in her entire life. And Yang Qi had actually hit her!

"Quick, pin this son of a bitch down!" Steward Hu roared.

But just then, Mrs. Zhang suddenly began to convulse violently on the ground. Everyone froze, stunned. It was happening exactly as it had before.

Zhu Benxiu said frantically, "Her symptoms are back! My acupuncture only gave her temporary relief. She needs to get to a hospital immediately!"

"Stop being so alarmist," someone scoffed. "It's a minor problem, but you make it sound like she's dying."

"Exactly! What would a little girl like her know?"

"Watch her! Don't let her touch Mrs. Zhang!"

The crowd surrounded the convulsing Mrs. Zhang, merely watching. Zhu Benxiu tried to get through to help, but they firmly blocked her path.

"You can't save someone who wants to die," Yang Qi said coldly. "If she dies today, you will all be murderers!"

"There he goes again with the alarmist nonsense!"

"Exactly! What skills could a jobless bum and a club hostess possibly have?" Their voices dripped with sarcasm.

"Help... help me! Save me!" Mrs. Zhang gasped, realizing she couldn't breathe. She reached a hand toward Zhu Benxiu.

But it was too late. The next moment, her heart stopped.

In the moment before she died, she was filled with regret. She regretted treating Zhu Benxiu that way. She regretted being so foolish. In the end, she had killed herself. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"She's... she's not breathing!"

"Her heart isn't beating!"

"It's over... she's really dead!"

Chen Baixiang stepped forward to check, and her face went pale.

"I told you," Yang Qi said, his voice cold as ice. "She was suffering from an acute vascular spasm. Zhu Benxiu's acupuncture gave her temporary relief. She should have been sent to the hospital immediately. Instead, she wasted precious time framing the very person who saved her. She brought this on herself; it was a fate she couldn't escape. All of you... you are all murderers. Your ignorance and indifference killed a person."
