Back at college, Jiang Fai was utterly aghast to get a tight slap from Lihua. He jerked his head towards her. "You! Why did you slap me?"

Kang Hongqi and Li Tingzhe were taken aback too. With the way Lihua mocked Kang Yuming, they didn't think that she would hit him. Kang Hongqi felt satisfied and smirked.

"Take that, you bastard! You thought your family would come and save you? Hah!"

Jiang Fai was irked upon hearing his words. He knew that. Of course, he realized that nobody would come and take his side. Even if Jiang Xiurang had come, she would have been forced to apologize anyway. It was humiliating, but he had no control over it. Kang Hongqi was just rubbing salt on his wounds.

His darkened gaze glowered at Lihua. "What are you doing!?"

Lihua didn't respond. Instead, she slapped him again without any mercy.

"You bitch!" Jiang Fai yelled at her. He tremblingly raised his finger towards her. "Are you out of your mind?"

The principal quickly said, "Mrs. Jiang. Please stop. This will aggravate the teenager even more."

Li Tingzhe said, "Don't stop her. She is right. He deserves even worse than this! How dare he hit my daughter!"

A few minutes later, Jiang Fai's cheeks had turned red in pain. His gaze turned misty with the stinging ache. "You bitch! How dare you!"

The other teenagers in his gang cursed her. "Hey stop that you crazy woman!"

"Have you lost it!?"

"How dare you hit our leader?"

They almost jumped in to lunge at her. The two thugs with Lihua were about to grab them, but Lihua signaled them with her eyes and ever so slightly shook her head.

Don't come in between is what it said.

The thugs hesitated but stepped back. If anything happened to her while they were present, Wei would mercilessly kill them.

"Stop!" Jiang Fai glared at his gang. "Step back!"

The boys were shocked and furious. "Jiang Fai. Why? She is slapping you for no reason! Why aren't you hitting this bitch back!? She thinks she is so great because she is your sister-in-law?"

"I said step back!" Jiang Fai was just as agitated and embarrassed being hit like that.

He walked towards her and faced her, his gaze burning in hatred. He sneered at Lihua. It felt painful, but he didn't back off. "Hit me all you want. I am not going to apologize. You have dug your own grave, bitch. With this, you will never win your challenge! Hah! You lose!"

Lihua quietly stared at him for a long time. Then she suddenly grinned and hugged him. "I will surely win it. No worries!"

She furiously patted his back.

Jiang Fai was speechless.

What the fuck is happening?

The two thugs had no words to say.

What is Lady Boss doing?

He pushed her away and said in disdain, "Are you nuts!? First, you hit me so badly and now you are hugging me? Did my cousin marry a psycho?"

Even Li Tingzhe and Jiang Fai's step family were utterly confused. One moment, she slapped him crazily and the next moment, she was hugging him.

Lihua glanced at the thugs. "Bring an ice pack right now."

"Y-Yes!"

Before Jiang Fai could yell at her again, Li Tingzhe impatiently said, "What is the meaning of slapping Fai and then... hugging him? What are you doing?"

"You should ask this question to your dear daughter, Mr. Li," she smiled.

Kang Meifen looked confused. "Me?"

The thugs brought an ice pack and she tried to put it on his cheek, but he shook her off. "Stay away, you bitch!" He flared.

She sighed. "Well then at least put it on yourself. This will give you relief."

"You…"

Then why hit me!?

Lihua shot a sharp stare at Kang Meifen, making her jolt. She awkwardly smiled. Lihua walked up to her. "Hmm. So you say that Jiang Fai beat you up."

She trembled and she fearfully lowered her gaze. Her eyes teared up. "Yes...Bro loses his temper quickly-"

"But he didn't hit me back just now," she calmly cut her off mid-sentence.

"Huh?" Kang Meifen looked at her puzzled. Kang Yuming suspiciously said, "What do you mean?"

"Didn't you all say that he is quick to raise his hand? But no matter how much I slapped him, he didn't raise even a finger against me."

The family was dumbfounded.

Kang Hongqi exclaimed. "You are his sister-in-law! Whereas we are his step-family. He hates us! Of course, he won't treat you and us the same way!"

Lihua tilted his head. "But you said that he is short-tempered and gets violent on 'everybody.' Why would I be an exception to that? Also, aren't you seeing how is talking to me? He has been cursing me from the moment I stepped in here. Clearly, he hates me."

He was dumbfounded.

"So he doesn't have to care about who is family here and who is not. He should have hit me back for slapping him. But the most he did was curse and rain profanities at me. He even stopped his gang from hurting me. Do you think a short-tempered person would hold back from getting violent for what I did?"

Suddenly, they felt as if they couldn't retort. Their expressions didn't look good as they felt stumped to respond.

Kang Meifen softly said, "It's because the principal is here so he didn't want to create any scene here…"

Li Tingzhe nodded. "Absolutely!"

Lihua snorted. "The principal was in school even when you were hit. He didn't magically disappear anywhere, did he? Everybody knows that an incident like this would definitely reach the principal's ears. Why would Jiang Fai then slap you and get into this mess in the first place?"

She froze.

Lihua smiled. "Do you know why he didn't hit me back?"

"T-that…"

"He is loud-mouthed, overbearing, mean, rebellious and arrogant."

Jiang Fai's expression turned ugly.

"But he will never raise his hand against a woman. I can vouch for that because I had twisted his ear many times to punish him until he almost fainted because of the pain. But he never did anything to hurt me back no matter how much he hated me. There is no way he beat you. It is impossible!"
