Fu Jiuxiao was sitting in a wheelchair. As soon as he appeared, the noisy corridor became completely silent.

‘It seemed that a person’s aura was still very important,’ Jiang Li thought in her heart.

“You don’t have to compensate me for the Fox serialization.” Fu Jiuxiao looked at Jiang Man’s cast hand mysteriously. “I will give you some time until the doctor says that your hand has recovered and you can draw...”

What... Should she do?

Jiang Man was a little flustered. She had wanted to use this method to cancel the contract with the Fu Group.

However, she could not break her right hand forever!

Fu Jiuxiao was indeed amazing! Jiang Li looked at Fu Jiuxiao and suddenly felt that his ice-cold face was much more pleasing to the eye.

“The Ninth Master doesn’t need us to pay for it, but she has pushed Jiang Man down! What should we do if she hurts someone on purpose? Doesn’t she need to pay for it?”

Seeing that there was no way to extort money, Mother Jiang started to think about Jiang Li again.

“Don’t tell me the Ninth Master wants to marry someone like that? Aren’t you afraid...” Mother Jiang wanted to continue to say something to sow discord between Fu Jiuxiao and Jiang Li. However, when she saw Fu Jiuxiao’s cold eyes, she was so scared that she swallowed the second half of her sentence.

Fu Jiuxiao turned back to look at Jiang Li. She was the target of public criticism, but she could look at everyone with such a relaxed expression?

It was as if the matter had nothing to do with her.

“She’s mine, so even if she deliberately pushed Jiang Man down the stairs, she must have her own reasons.”

“Even if Jiang Li did something wrong, it’s still the right thing to do. You don’t have the right to tell my people what to do.”

Fu Jiuxiao’s domineering words smacked the faces of the Jiang family members.

It was rumored that the cold-hearted and abusive Ninth Master was forced to get engaged to Jiang Li. However, at this moment, it seemed that he was sincerely protecting her. He was not a scumbag, but he was an ideal lover!

Jiang Li did not expect him to say that. She was moved, but her feelings disappeared instantly.

“Manman! Manman, what’s wrong? Are you okay?”

Fu Yunze ran over and pounced on Jiang Man’s bed. He turned around and glared at Jiang Li, “Are you jealous of Manman? Is that why you hurt her on purpose? You wanted to marry me, but now that it can’t be done, you vented your anger on Manman!”

“You... Vicious woman!”

Fu Yunze raised his hand without any explanation and was about to slap Jiang Li’s face.

“Thud!” Before Fu Yunze’s palm could fall, he had directly knelt on the ground.

Fu Yunze raised his head and looked at Fu Jiuxiao. His knee was slightly aching as he looked at Fu Jiuxiao’s steel walking stick. “I...”

“Is this how you talk to your aunt?”

Fu Jiuxiao was obviously angry. He used the stick to hit Fu Yunze a few times. Hearing him cry out, he frowned. “It’s really embarrassing for the Fu family to have you. Someone, take him downstairs and apply some ointment on him.”

“Yes, sir.” The bodyguard dragged Fu Yunze away.

Everyone was dumbfounded. As expected of the famous Ninth Master! He really made people scared out of their wits!

“Wait,” Jiang Li, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said. She walked up to Fu Yunze, rolled up her sleeves, and slapped him more than ten times. Fu Yunze became dizzy, and Jiang Li only stopped when her hand was in pain.

Looking at Fu Jiuxiao, she said calmly, “I can teach him a lesson myself, but how could I dirty the Ninth Master’s hands?”

“You said that I pushed her down. Why don’t we look at the school’s cameras? If I remember correctly, the place where she fell wasn’t a blind spot...” Jiang Li looked at Jiang Man, whose face was pale, and sneered.

This woman was stupid and did not know her place. She could not even find a reliable place to use a dirty move.

Was Jiang Man just letting Jiang Li take advantage of her?

“Mom, forget it,” Sure enough, Jiang Man said as she held Mother Jiang’s hand, feeling a little guilty.
