Translator: 549690339

“Article 24.6 of the ‘Criminal Code’ stipulates that deliberately fabricating and spreading false facts, defaming others’ personalities, ruining others’ reputations, openly insulting and slandering others, amounts to malicious slander. If the circumstances are severe, it constitutes a crime of defamation and a criminal lawsuit can be initiated.”

Huo Jingshen spoke word by word, with Su Wanwan listening in a daze.

Was he spouting nonsense?

How could he remember legal regulations that clearly?

But evidently, the two were alarmed, especially Xing Siqing whose face turned white with fear. Xing Yuyun, though relatively calm, was somewhat flustered.

He quickly explained, “Brother, my sister just came back to the country yesterday. She didn’t know that you’re already legally married to Wanwan. And our family has been busy planning my wedding, so no one told her…”

“You mean, if Wanwan weren’t my wife, she could be defamed at will?”

Huo Jingshen held his tongue, and Xing Yuyun felt like he had fallen into another trap.

“No, I didn’t mean it like that…”

Huo Jingshen interrupted, “I am taking my wife to the hospital. You can discuss it with my lawyer later.”

“Brother, how can you do this to me?” Xing Siqing finally regains her senses.

Though she and Huo Jingshen weren’t close, he was indeed the eldest grandson of the Huo family and she was a granddaughter—their relationship was of cousins. He was actually going to sue her because of a few words?

Xing Siqing is both angry and hurt. Seeing Huo Jingshen, it didn’t seem like he was joking…

She’s been pampered since childhood, because of the family background, everyone treats her with respect. Even the old man Huo wouldn’t chastise her too much. She had never encountered someone as stern and indifferent as Huo Jingshen.

She was panicky and could only clutch Xing Yuyun’s arm, seeking protection. “Brother, you have to help me out.”

Xing Yuyun felt a headache.

Ever since he bumped into Huo Jingshen and Su Wanwan at the hospital, he felt that this brother simply didn’t care about familial relationships and reputation, besides…Siyqing was indeed in the wrong.

“Brother,” Xing Siqing kept urging, really afraid of being sued.

Just then, Su Wanwan’s voice suddenly rang out, “Forget it, she’s your cousin. We’re all family, it isn’t appropriate to make a scene by going to the police.”

Xing Yuyun was surprised, and so was Xing Siqing. The next second…

“However, I counted the number of times you insulted me—38 times. So how about this, if you say sorry to me 38 times, I might consider forgiving you. What do you think?” Su Wanwan casually spouted a number, like Huo Jingshen did. Looking at Xing Siqing’s scared face, it felt quite satisfying.

She curved her lips, and her smile was radiant. She felt so happy.

But in Xing Siqing’s view, it seemed more like a display of power, intimidating and pushing her around.

38 times of saying sorry?

Was she subtly implying that she was a bitch!?

It felt like she had been slapped in public, Xing Siqing’s face turned red with anger, but she dared not have an outburst. She felt like she was going to burst out of anger.

“Don’t want to?” Su Wanwan came up with another idea, “Indeed, having you to say it 38 times in one go might be too much. So, you say it once a day. If you’re in a good mood, you can say it a few more times. The sooner you finish, the sooner you can get it over with.”

After saying that, she looked at Huo Jingshen, continuing to play tough with a cutesy voice, “Honey, do you think that’s okay?”

Huo Jingshen was looking at her too, with a hint of laughter in his eyes. Even his thin lips curled up into a light smile.

Then, he bent his head, his delicate lips were almost against her ear, he said, “How many times a day, it’s all up to you.”

There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with his words. But coupled with his intentionally lowered voice and suggestive gaze, it feels as if he was referring to something else…

Su Wanwan’s heart skipped a beat and she quickly avoided his gaze.

This shameless old man! She wouldn’t have bothered saying “husband” if it wasn’t to frustrate Xing Siqing. But she had given him the opportunity to take advantage!

“Siyqing.” Xing Yuyun just wanted to finish this quickly, “You were indeed wrong about this. Say sorry to Wanwan”.

How could Xing Siqing agree to that?

What makes it worse is that someone with illicite reputation such as Su Wanwan, had always been the person she looked down upon!

She opened her mouth resentfully, “Brother, everything I said is true. I didn’t slander her. If you don’t believe, you can ask Uncle Su.”

Huo Jingshen raised an eyebrow in amusement, “Are you suggesting that I have poor judgment and got cheated by a young girl?”

Xing Siqing froze,

She didn’t mean it that way!

“Brother, I didn’t mean…”

“Your sister-in-law already pointed out two options for you. If you don’t appreciate it, then you should hurry up and get a reliable lawyer for the Xing family.” Huo Jingshen didn’t want to waste any more time, it was almost noon, and the old lady would be calling soon.

Without waiting for Xing Siqing’s reaction, Huo Jingshen had already left with Su Wanwan.

As soon as they turned the corner, Su Wanwan immediately loosened her grip. Her little face quickly returned to its cold elegance. “Bastard!”

“What?” Huo Jingshen leaned over, “What did my dear baby just say?”

Su Wanwan was startled by the word “baby”.

Seeing her with that defensive look on her face, Huo Jingshen couldn’t help but chuckle, his dark eyes filled with laughter.

“Shameless!” Su Wanwan cursed again, not wanting to look at him any longer, and limped quickly ahead.

But before she could take a few steps, a strong hand landed on her waist and lifted her in mid-air—Huo Jingshen had picked her up princess-style!

“What are you doing?” Su Wanwan lay in his arms, her beautiful eyes wide open and her face getting hotter and hotter.

They were very close, his mature masculine scent and a light smell of cigarettes wafting into her nose.. People around were starting to notice…
