Adopting/Raising The Male Lead and The Villain

"We won't squish them with our fingers, but we must still teach them a lesson," said Lang Jinzhi nonchalantly as he looked at Xu Yushan.

Zhong Yuhuan looked at Xu Yushan and smiled when she heard Lang Jinzhi's words.

Her smile gave Xu Yushan the goosebumps.

Xu Yushan's body stiffened; the only one thought that she had was to turn around and run away.

"Aren't you going to say hi to them? Who is that?" Her friend grabbed her by her arm and looked at Lang Jinzhi, her eyes were filled with admiration.

Xu Yushan was a little anxious too, so she quickly replied, "That's Zhong Yuhuan's cousin!" And she continued to walk toward the inside of the house.

By now, Lang Jinzhi was already in front of her.

"Is Mr. Zhong not home?" asked Lang Jinzhi, interrupting what she was doing.

Xu Yushan had no choice but to turn around, put on a smile, and answer, "Hi, Mr. Lang. Dad is overseas for the next few days."

Lang Jinzhi gave her a look. He was calm, but for whatever reasons, Xu Yushan felt intimidated. Did that aggressive presence just come naturally to anyone born with a silver spoon, she thought to herself enviously.

"Has Mrs. Xu not taught Miss Xu?" asked Lang Jinzhi politely.

"What?" Xu Yunhui's face was burning. She couldn't tell why, but she felt like he was teaching her a lesson.

"Mr. Zhong wanted to remarry, that is his business. But if Mr. Zhong's second marriage made Yuhuan unhappy, then that's the Ding's business and the Lang's business. Miss Xu has a younger brother, but Yuhuan has an older brother too. There are things that cannot keep on happening; the next time Yuhuan was bullied..."

Xu Yushan felt ashamed, her cheeks burned even more and her heart started pounding suddenly. All of a sudden, she even felt difficulty breathing.

Lang Jinzhi said nonchalantly, "If that happens again, I will come and pay Mr. Zhong a visit and ask for an explanation. There might be a room for a Mrs. Zhong in this house, but not necessary for a Miss Xu. One real daughter in this house is quite sufficient."

Now, he was just openly threatening her.

Xu Yushan felt that all her limbs were trembling, but she dared not say anything in return.

Lang Jinzhi didn't expect that Xu Yunhui's daughter would be so easily intimidated by just a few simple words.

That was good, at least Zhong Yuhuan wouldn't have too much to worry about.

After he was done talking, he turned and looked at Zhong Yuhuan.

Zhong Yuhuan had just caught up to him. With his hand on his back, Lang Jinzhi saw her onto the steps in front of the mansion before he said softly, "I am taking off."

Zhong Yuhuan gave him a sweet smile and said, "Thank you, cousin."

As she watched their exchange, Xu Yushan dug her nails deeply into her flesh.

After Zhong Yuhuan had walked inside of the mansion, Lang Jinzhi slightly nodded at Xu Yushan's female friends like a perfect gentleman before he turned and got into his car.

Now, Xu Yushan was even more angry.

Lang Jinzhi could even be a perfect gentleman to her friends, but he was cold and fierce to her. Why? Just because she was the daughter of Xu Yunhui? Or that he thought she had bullied Zhong Yuhuan?

When she thought of that, Xu Yushan began to hate Lang Jinzhi a little.

Would things change after Zhong Chi admitted her and her brother as his children?

On the other hand, Zhong Yuhuan, Li Jinyuan, and Huo Chengming had already gone upstairs.

Huo Chengming asked, "Did Xu Yushan bully you?"

Zhong Yuhuan turned and looked at him and saw that the end of his brows sank a little with an aura of fierceness coming from him.

Zhong Yuhuan shook her head, "How could she possibly bully me?"

Huo Chengming pinched his mouth shut and didn't believe her. It looked as though he already firmly believed that was the case.

Seeing that the two boys weren't looking too happy, Zhong Yuhuan had no choice but to say, "Eh? How come Chengming ge ge and Jinyuan both look upset? Is it because I bought gifts for both grandpa and cousin but not the two of you?"

"I don't want gifts," said Huo Chengming dryly.

Li Jinyuan recollected himself and smiled at Zhong Yuhuan, "I'll buy gifts for Huanhuan when I can earn money."

"But there are so many things that I want," said Zhong Yuhuan as she sank into the couch.

"What does Huanhuan want?" asked Li Jinyuan softly.
