Jin Tai'an was seething with anger at this mont.
He had barely managed to muster the words he prepared when Tao Tianxiang interrupted him.
He turned his head and looked coldly at Tao Tianxiang as she charged towards him.
Seeing Jin Tai'an's expression, Tao Tianxiang suddenly felt that sothing was amiss.
But she didn't think too much about it and continued to address Jin Tai'an, "Husband, I was planning to give you a surprise today, but I didn't expect to encounter such an idiot on the way. He actually hit , look, he has swollen my face..."
However, before Tao Tianxiang could finish, Jin Tai'an slapped her face without any hesitation, "Slap!"
This slap was filled with Jin Tai'an's fury and was even heavier than the one Xu Hao had delivered!
"Wow!" Th.is- ch ap!te-r'#s t r*ue$ sour^ce! is My V i*r-tual L^i@b!r!ar*y E!mpire (**).
Tao Tianxiang cried out in pain, her mouth agape, only to find that she had spat out several teeth!
She imdiately roared in anger, "Jin Tai'an you heartless creature, why do you hit the mont you see !"
"Why do I hit you? Isn't it because you offended soone you shouldn't have ever crossed!"
Jin Tai'an roared, then quickly stepped forward, bowing with his fists to Xu Hao, "Young Master Xu, my vile wife didn't know your reputation, having just returned from Arica, and she accidentally ran into you. I beg you not to take offense at her, a re woman."
Xu Hao spoke indifferently, "If today's incident had involved her and an ordinary young man instead of , that young man would have probably been dood, wouldn't he? He would have no choice but to accept her abuse, right?"
Jin Tai'an was at a loss for words all of a sudden.
What Xu Hao said was the truth.
If Tao Tianxiang had encountered anyone other than Xu Hao today, it would have spelled disaster for that ordinary person.
Tao Tianxiang would have been able to insult and beat that person without restraint, but the person could not fight back, otherwise, they would face retaliation from the Jin Family.
This was the accustod way of the family powers like theirs, bullying ordinary people with their might, forcing them not to resist and to toil thanklessly and endure abuse.
The people present cast contemptuous glances at Jin Tai'an.
These family forces bullied those who couldn't fight back.
They were adept at picking on ordinary people, but when faced with soone with greater power like Xu Hao, they suddenly turned cowardly.
Xu Hao said coldly, "This is why I particularly loathe you family powers and your offspring. My family is also very rich and powerful, but aside from squandering my inheritance with extravagant spending, I haven't much relied on my family's power. The status and reputation I have today have been fought for bit by bit. Am I right?"
"Young Master Xu, you are absolutely correct!"
Jin Tai'an imdiately nodded in agreent, having witnessed Xu Hao's climb from a nobody in Huadu to his current status.
Now, Xu Hao was definitely one of the top five influential figures in Huadu.
Xu Hao said lightly, "I believe that one cannot choose their background, but they can decide how far they can go. However, offspring from families like yours haven't experienced struggle. They were born into carefree lives, and thus, many of them start to beco depraved. Of course, there are excellent individuals in large families too, it's just that their proportion is embarrassingly low."
Jin Tai'an nodded and responded, "Young Master Xu, you're right! I understand the aning behind your words. Since our Jin family has chosen to follow you, we have decided not to betray you, much less do disgusting things!"
He looked towards Tao Tianxiang and said coldly, "From today onwards, you are no longer my concubine."
Tao Tianxiang's face changed drastically!
She never expected Jin Tai'an to divorce her on the spot!
How could she accept such an outco?
She hadn't yet had enough of the life as a wealthy wife of the Jin family, how could Jin Tai'an just dismiss her?
She imdiately clung to Jin Tai'an's leg, pleading, "Tai'an, I was wrong, I was truly wrong, I shouldn't have provoked Young Master Xu. Please have pity on and let return to your side, I will behave well and never dare to act recklessly again."
Seeing Tao Tianxiang crying pitifully like a rain-soaked pear blossom, Jin Tai'an's heart softened a bit.
After all, "a couple for a day is a hundred days' grace, and a hundred days as a couple is as deep as the sea," he and Tao Tianxiang had been together for so long, and there were feelings involved.
He opened his mouth, wanting to plead for her with Xu Hao, but didn't know what to say.
Xu Hao saw through Jin Tai'an's inner thoughts and glanced at Tao Tianxiang.
Tao Tianxiang instantly felt as though she had been seen through, and terrified, she clung tightly to her body, not daring to move anymore.
Xu Hao shook his head gently and said, "Jin Tai'an, I suggest you better go to the hospital for a check-up. Otherwise, if it's too late, it will be even harder to treat."
