Ye Xuan rudely slammed the door on Xiahou Zhenshan and his daughter, refusing to speak with them. Despite being rejected, Xiahou Zhenshan insisted they must continue begging. Meanwhile, Xiahou Yudie's anger grew, and both she and her father noticed the abundant spiritual energy emanating from Ye Xuan's villa, suspecting he possessed a superior Gathering Spirit Stone. Inside, Ye Xuan dismissed his daughter's idea of inviting the visitors in, while she mused about Xiahou Yudie potentially becoming her mother. Xiahou Yudie, overhearing this, became furious and vowed revenge on Ye Xuan.

Xiahou Yudie knew that Ye Xuan must have realized she was eavesdropping, so he deliberately said those things to provoke her. The angrier she got, the more she would be tricked by Ye Xuan.

She shouldn’t be angry.

But... she couldn’t help it!

To hell with you, you’re the thief, your whole family’s a bunch of thieves!

What’s wrong with Candie? Isn’t Candie a woman?

Ah, spit!

Old lady here isn’t Candie at all, okay? At least I’m a C... if I’m considered Candie, then how are those girls on the street supposed to live? These days, having a C is already quite impressive, alright?

Don’t be angry, don’t get angry, you can’t stoop to the level of scum, being angry is a sign of incompetence, being angry will only make him feel more smug...

"Phew—"

After a long while, Xiahou Yudie finally let out a heavy breath, calming the turbulent emotions within her, wiped the bloodstain from the corner of her mouth, and held her head high as if nothing had happened.

And Xiahou Zhenshan, seeing this scene, finally felt some comfort: "Not bad, all these years, you’re just overdue for a lesson, and now you’ve met someone who can handle you, it’s not a bad thing."

"Father, it’s easy for you to say!" Xiahou Yudie said, "If you were the one eavesdropping just now, you’d probably want to grab a knife and kill someone!"

"That’s why I never had any intention of eavesdropping," Xiahou Zhenshan shook his head with a smile, "You just tend to get too caught up in things. Some things, some words, not knowing is much better than knowing."

Xiahou Yudie was indifferent: "You haven’t been humiliated yet. Wait till Ye Xuan, that bastard, humiliates you, and we’ll see if you can still say such things."

"Ye Xuan insults people, depending on the person," Xiahou Zhenshan said with a faint smile, "He insults you because you disrespected him first. I’ve never wronged him, and have always been respectful, why would he insult me?"

Xiahou Yudie remained silent, clearly not believing that Ye Xuan would be polite to Xiahou Zhenshan.

"Don’t believe me?" Xiahou Zhenshan chuckled, "Then just watch!"

Seizing this opportunity, Xiahou Zhenshan decided to personally give Xiahou Yudie a lesson, letting this girl who only knew how to solve things with violence see what it means to conquer people with virtue.

...

Half an hour later, the sun rose in the sky.

After breakfast, Lin Tong and the others went out to work as usual. When their car drove out of the villa gate, Lin Jing, who was driving, intentionally stopped by Xiahou Zhenshan and Xiahou Yudie.

Xiahou Zhenshan clasped his fists with a smile: "Ladies, good morning!"

"Good morning, senior!"

Lin Tong and the others returned the greeting to Xiahou Zhenshan and then drove off without saying much.

Watching the car drive away, Xiahou Zhenshan turned to Xiahou Yudie with a cheerful smile: "Silly daughter, did you see that?"

"See what?" Xiahou Yudie pouted.

"Those ladies are all Ye Xuan’s wives and concubines. I was polite to them, and they returned the politeness. Reciprocity makes for a friendly atmosphere, doesn’t it?" Xiahou Zhenshan said, "Just as we waited here sincerely, they stopped deliberately at the door to greet us. Respect is mutual."

"You might have misunderstood." Xiahou Yudie pouted, "They stopped because of me."

"Nonsense." Xiahou Zhenshan shook his head, "If it was because of you, why didn’t they greet you?"

"Because..." Xiahou Yudie hesitated, her pretty face flushed with embarrassment, unable to speak.

Xiahou Zhenshan didn’t notice, but as someone directly involved, how could Xiahou Yudie not realize? Those ladies stopping midway wasn’t to greet at all!

Instead... it was just to see if her ’Candie’... was really Candie!

Xiahou Yudie wanted to kill them, but remembering her injured grandma still in bed... she held back.

Then?

Xiahou Yudie also noticed that after those ladies looked at her one by one, they all gave her friendly smiles?

What does that mean?

That’s mockery!

If they weren’t convinced she was Candie and had no chance to compete with them for a husband, would they be so friendly? The friendlier they were, the more humiliating it was for Xiahou Yudie.

Even more humiliating was that she also looked at those ladies and realized... in front of them, she really seemed like Candie!!

I endure, for grandma, I endure!!

Unable to speak of such things, Xiahou Yudie’s tongue got tied up, and she could only say helplessly: "Alright, alright, Father, you’re amazing. They weren’t stopping for me; it was just to say hello to you!"

"As I said, regardless of the status of people, they’re all the same. If you want to earn their respect, you first have to respect them. Do you understand this principle?" Xiahou Zhenshan said with a smile.

"Understood, understood, you’re so annoying!" Xiahou Yudie was very frustrated.

Father, I really don’t want to shatter your confidence!

Xiahou Zhenshan let out a breath, then looked again at the tightly closed gate, confidently saying: "As expected, after we’ve stood outside for so long, Ye Xuan should soften up. Soon, you’ll see, Ye Xuan is actually not difficult to talk to. Everything resulted from your disrespect and willfulness!"

Xiahou Yudie pursed her lips, hoping today you really hit me in the face hard!

The father and daughter waited for more than an hour at the villa gate.

The tightly closed gate, under their sincere gaze, finally reopened.

"Ye Xiaoying, Sakurako, stay home and practice well, I’m going out to have fun, don’t bother me unless it’s necessary!" Ye Xuan’s eager voice came from inside the house.

Following that, Ye Xuan’s figure appeared once again in Xiahou Zhenshan and Xiahou Yudie’s view.

Xiahou Zhenshan hurriedly clasped his hands and shouted, "Brother Ye Xuan, we..."

Xiahou Zhenshan didn’t even get a chance to finish his words before Ye Xuan, who just stepped out, turned and went straight to the garage.

Xiahou Zhenshan’s face went black.

Xiahou Yudie smirked: "Father, reality doesn’t seem to match your expectations."

"Don’t rush, don’t rush," Xiahou Zhenshan regained himself, calmly waved his hand: "Ye Xuan just went to drive, soon he’ll stop at the door and have a good chat with me."

In the garage, a super-sleek and flashy sports car slowly drove out, with Ye Xuan inside wearing sunglasses and gripping the steering wheel, looking outrageously cool.

The villa’s remote-controlled gate opened again, and the sports car drove out towards the exit.

Once more, Xiahou Zhenshan smiled and clasped his fists, saying: "Brother Ye Xuan, I am from the Hidden Dragon Xiahou Family..."

Vroom!

The roaring engine sounded like a beast, the winds roared, the dust flew, and the cool sports car disappeared in an instant.

Having not gotten the chance to finish his words again, Xiahou Zhenshan stood dazed at the dust-filled villa gate, expression frozen, body stiff, as if witnessing a whole new world.

Where is this? Who am I?

Xiahou Zhenshan experienced for the first time in his life the feeling of his mind buzzing and exploding...
