Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao were utterly shocked by the shameless words of this brother and sister duo. Xu Ke furrowed his brow, shielding Lin Mengyao behind him, and said coldly, "Today is a party hosted by Old Master Jin. I don't want to cause trouble for our host, so disappear from my sight now. I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said, otherwise don't blame me for not giving Old Master Jin any face."

Xu Ke firmly guarded Lin Mengyao behind him, his eyes emanating authority. If it were anyone else, they might have already discerned something unusual from Xu Ke's expression and words and walked away, but Jin Ling and Jin Bao were people who just couldn't read the room.

"Who gave you the courage to say such things in Luocheng? Do you know who we are? The Old Master you mentioned is our granduncle. If you upset us, we can have granduncle throw you out of the party immediately. Being noticed by us siblings is your good fortune, you know?" Jin Ling said, hands on her hips and head held high.

"Not only will we kick you out of the party, but we'll also kick you out of Luocheng, make you like a stray dog, losing everything you have now and becoming wretched beggars, forced to sleep under bridges fighting wild dogs for food." Jin Bao mimicked Jin Ling's stance, with a smug expression, "What do you say, scared yet?" Jin Bao said, pouting with a tone full of arrogance. The most up-to-date version is on M(VLEMPY)R.

"If you're scared, just obediently do as we say. As long as you comply, the things we mentioned won't happen. Otherwise, the consequences will be ones you don't want to bear." Jin Ling said, lifting her chin and looking at Xu Ke with an unmasked possessive gaze.

"Take your disgusting glances away from me. If you don't know how to restrain yourselves, I don't mind stepping in for your granduncle to teach you some manners."

The disgusting looks from Jin Ling and Jin Bao landed on Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao, nearly transforming the malice and darkness from Xu Ke into something tangible.

"You want to take my granduncle's place to lecture us? Hahaha, that's the funniest thing I've ever heard. You only run a small company that nobody's even heard of, yet you're so arrogant you think you can lecture us? Do you believe that just based on what you said, it's enough to kill your company a hundred times over?" Jin Ling and Jin Bao first laughed aloud, then their eyes took on a menacing gleam.

"Stop trying to play hard to get with me here; being noticed by us siblings is your fortune." Jin Ling approached Xu Ke, trying to touch his cheek with her chubby hand, but Xu Ke tilted his head to dodge, instantly igniting the fury in Jin Ling's eyes.

"Don't think just because we're new to Luocheng that we don't understand anything. Do you think by acting that way you'll make me believe you're really so capable? Don't kid yourself, we're not three-year-olds. I already know what the Jin family's status is in Luocheng before I even got here. You think you can fool me, treat me like an idiot? Hmph, don't be afraid of breaking your teeth on a stone, ending up with a mouthful of blood." Jin Ling said, squinting her eyes.

While Jin Ling was talking to Xu Ke, Jin Bao somehow sneaked behind Xu Ke, reaching his chubby hands towards Lin Mengyao's waist, only to be slapped across the face by Lin Mengyao, who sensed something was amiss. The crisp slap sound abruptly interrupted the conversation between Jin Ling and Xu Ke.

Jin Bao covered his red-marked face, his already plump features almost scrunching up completely. Pointing a finger at Lin Mengyao's face, he said, angry and incredulous, "How dare you hit me!"

"Xu Ke." Lin Mengyao tugged at Xu Ke's sleeve, her eyes filled with a trace of panic and worry.

Lin Mengyao's wholly trusting posture caused Xu Ke's heart to melt instantly. Right in front of Jin Ling and Jin Bao, Xu Ke took Lin Mengyao's hand, the one she used to hit, into his palm, asking with a look of heartache, "Did it hurt your hand? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

With Xu Ke holding her hand, Lin Mengyao's cheeks flushed red, feeling sweet inside. But recalling the two people still watching, she withdrew her hand from Xu Ke's palm.

By this time, the volcano inside Jin Ling and Jin Bao had already erupted. The two of them being lovey-dovey right in front of them—did they think they were dead?

"Sis, that woman actually dared to hit me. Teach her a lesson for me." Jin Bao, pulling on Jin Ling's sleeve, said loudly, with reddening eyes.

"Alright, sis will get justice for you." Without a moment's hesitation, Jin Ling strode toward Lin Mengyao in high heels, her eyes bloodshot, raising her hand to strike Lin Mengyao's face.

However, before the slap, accompanied by the whoosh of the wind, could land, Xu Ke caught it, looking at Jin Ling with disdain. He didn't even have the interest to speak to her, but instead, flung her arm aside, his gaze scanning the party for any sign of the Jin family.

Jin Ling staggered backward when Xu Ke flung her, nearly falling over due to unsteady footing, only avoiding embarrassment in public because Jin Bao caught her from behind.

"You actually dared to push me." Jin Ling widened her eyes, looking at Xu Ke, her voice sharp as she spoke.

"You actually hit my sister for that cheap woman! Watch me teach you a lesson." Jin Bao stabilized Jin Ling, then dragged his rotund body toward Xu Ke with malicious intent. Xu Ke could even feel the floor trembling beneath his feet.

Jin Ling was a girl; he hesitated to strike, but Jin Bao was a boy, leaving Xu Ke with no such qualms. Although they were meeting for the first time today, Xu Ke already lost all patience and formed strong aversion toward these siblings.

Xu Ke narrowed his eyes slightly, watching Jin Bao's increasingly nearing approach. By his side, Lin Mengyao subconsciously clutched Xu Ke's clothing, sweat leaving dark stains, but she didn't close her eyes. Instead, she widened them, preparing to push Xu Ke away the moment danger arrived.

Yet Xu Ke didn't even give Lin Mengyao a chance to protect him. As Jin Bao came upon him, Xu Ke stood in place and directly kicked Jin Bao in the stomach with all his might, sending the over two-hundred-pounds Jin Bao flying, crashing into a table. The champagne-filled glasses on the table shattered on the floor, emitting a crisp sound as the fragrant wine mixed with the scent of blood began to waft throughout the air.
