Originally, Gu Qinlian had no intention of continuing to argue with Ji Yinli. However, the whispers in her ears and Hu Xinrong's pretentious demeanor instantly ignited the anger in her heart.

How can you talk about loving your son? How can those bastards deserve such a title?

What made her even more intolerable was that Hu Xinrong unscrupulously called Ji Yinli "husband"! As a concubine, how dare she be so presumptuous?

Gu Qinlian, whose emotions were out of control, could no longer bear it and rushed straight towards Hu Xinrong, pushing her to the ground with brute force.

"Ah..." Hu Xinrong let out a weak cry and fell to the ground.

Gu Qinlian ignored everything and immediately sat on Hu Xinrong, slapping her hard several times with both hands.

"You pretentious bitch, I'll make you keep your mouth shut again!!"

The crisp sound of "pa pa pa" echoed in the air.

Exclamations from all around and Hu Xinrong's wails came one after another.

"Husband, husband, please save me."

Hu Xinrong was beaten badly, and the two children were so scared that they burst into tears and cried "Mom".

Hu Xinrong turned to Ji Yinli for help with a look of grievance on her face.

Ji Yinli never expected that Gu Qinlian would actually take action. His face turned pale and he roared:

"Haven't you made enough noise yet?!"

Ji Yinli immediately stepped forward, picked up Gu Qinlian, raised his hand, and prepared to slap her.

Gu Qinlian closed her eyes in horror, her face as pale as paper.

"stop!"

Just as Ji Yinli was about to slap someone, a cold and stern shout rang out, full of majesty.

Following the loud shout, a scabbard flew like a meteor and hit Ji Yinli's palm accurately.

Ji Yinli gritted his teeth in pain, his arm twisted and he failed to hit Gu Qinlian.

The force of the scabbard was so strong that Ji Yinli's arm became numb instantly.

He covered his wrist in pain and looked in the direction of the sound with some surprise.

Gu Qinlan was seen walking slowly towards them, holding Zheng Huiyi's hand, with Wocan and Xiang Zhu following behind them.

She was wearing a crimson purple butterfly-playing daffodil dress, which made her look like a fairy from the moon, so beautiful!

Especially those phoenix eyes, which were cold and noble, and made people feel awe at first sight.

Ji Yinli's heart trembled slightly, and a hint of obsession flashed in his eyes.

He knew that this elder sister was extremely beautiful, far more beautiful than Gu Qinlian, but unfortunately...

Soon, Ji Yinli came back to his senses, quickly suppressed the astonishment in his eyes, bowed to Gu Qinlan, and said respectfully:

"Sister..."

"Ha..." Gu Qinlan sneered, glanced at Ji Yinli with a cold look, and said:

"Master Ji, how dare you slap my second sister? As the Princess of Duan, how can I bear to be called elder sister by you? You should call me Princess of Duan."

Ji Yinli was stunned and realized that Gu Qinlan was angry.

He didn't dare to offend Prince Duan's Mansion. Even though Prince Duan was not in the capital, he was not someone that could be easily angered. So he endured the pain and tried to explain.

However, Hu Xinrong seemed not to have seen Gu Qinlan and immediately pounced on him.

She hugged Ji Yinli's swollen hand that was hit by the scabbard tightly, tears streaming down her face, and said with great distress:

"Husband, are you okay?"

Ji Yinli awkwardly pushed Hu Xinrong's hand away and looked at Gu Qinlan nervously.

For some reason, even in the face of Gu Qinlian's questioning, he didn't think there was anything wrong with being close to Hu Xinrong, but...

When Gu Qinlan arrived, he felt embarrassed as if he was caught cheating in bed, and he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

Hu Xinrong's eyes were filled with tears. She hugged Ji Yinli's arm tightly and cried inconsolably. Ji Yinli had no choice but to comfort her patiently.

On the other side, Gu Qinlian, with his eyes wide open, glared at Hu Xinrong fiercely, then turned his gaze to Gu Qinlan.

To be honest, in Gu Qinlian's heart, although Hu Xinrong was hateful, the person she hated more was actually Gu Qinlan!

She couldn't stand Gu Qinlan's always condescending look!

He also couldn't stand the fact that Gu Qinlan had such a glorious past life while his own life was a mess!

Therefore, even though she knew that Gu Qinlan had saved her before, Gu Qinlian still said somewhat ignorantly:

"What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me?"

Gu Qinlan glanced at Gu Qinlian coldly, and said in a firm and powerful tone:

"If I don't show up today, do you intend to let the entire Marquis' Mansion and the girls in it lose face and be trampled on by others?"

Although Gu Qinlian is already married, if today's farce were to spread, it would not only affect the unmarried girls in the Marquis' Mansion, but even those who are already married would inevitably be criticized.

After all, which aristocratic family doesn't value the reputation of their family?

Gu Qinlian's behavior of embarrassing her husband's family on the street and using sharp words can easily make people mistakenly believe that all the girls in the marquis' mansion are like this.

As the saying goes, one should seek a virtuous wife. If you marry a woman like Gu Qinlian who likes to stir up trouble, then the days of family harmony will be a distant dream.

Gu Qinlian opened her mouth, knowing that her actions today were too impulsive, but still somewhat unwillingly defended herself:

"But he brought this bitch..."

Before she finished speaking, Gu Qinlan interrupted her with a cold tone:

"She is Mr. Ji's legally married, and she is registered as his concubine, yet you are so reckless and say such dirty words. Is this what your mother taught you?"

Gu Qinlian wanted to refute, but Gu Qinlan spoke again, his tone slightly softened:

"As the principal wife, you have the right to punish or punish her. Why do you have to make a scene in front of everyone and embarrass everyone?"

After hearing this, although Gu Qinlian was impulsive, she was not really ignorant. She finally understood Gu Qinlan's intention.

After all, she was just a concubine. As the principal wife, there were countless reasons to punish her. There was really no need to make a big fuss in public and make a fool of herself.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinlian glanced at Gu Qinlan. Although she was still unwilling in her heart, she finally shut her mouth.

Ji Yinli couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Gu Qinlan defending himself and successfully calming Gu Qinlian down.

He tried to force a smile and said to Gu Qinlan:

"Don't be angry, elder sister. Madam was just impulsive and did something rash. As her husband, I will naturally tolerate her willfulness."

"Willful? Reckless?"

When Gu Qinlan heard Ji Yinli's words, she sneered.

She turned to face Ji Yinli, a cold light flashed in her eyes, which made people feel a chill.

Gu Qinlan looked at Ji Yinli and Hu Xinrong, whose cheeks were red from being beaten, with sarcasm and said sternly:

"Master Ji, my sister is the legitimate daughter of the Dingyuan Marquisate. She is of noble status and is your newlywed wife!"

"She didn't care that you already had a concubine and a bastard before marriage. She was so magnanimous. Why did she become a jealous woman in your eyes?"

"Besides, if you hadn't openly brought your concubine around, losing etiquette and damaging the reputation of both families, how could she have lost control like that? Or did you not care at all and had already planned to favor your concubine and neglect your wife?"
