Becoming Audacious After Marriage: Madam, Please Keep A Low Profile Chapter 40

For his future granddaughter-in-law?
Shi Yuxuan's pupils shrank. There was no obvious emotion on her face, but her eyes seemed to be filled with warmth that could melt ice into water.
After helping Li Guowei back to his bedroom, Yuxuan respectfully left. She subconsciously touched the bracelet on her wrist and went up to the second floor to the room that Old Master Li had arranged for her and Li Beichen.
Just as she was about to open the door and enter, she heard a burst of piercing laughter behind her.
It was a little frightening for such a sharp sound to suddenly appear in the quiet house.
"Li Nana, why are you standing outside Beichen and my room?" Yuxuan was puzzled and turned to look at her.
The woman with long wavy hair sashayed towards her in her spaghetti strap nightgown and high-heeled shoes.
"Shi Yuxuan, what kind of shameful method did you use to bewitch my second brother?"
Li Nana crossed her arms in front of her chest and spoke arrogantly.
Bewitch her Second Brother?
She didn't.
But based on Li Nana's current assumptions, it was useless even if Shi Yuxuan explained that she and Li Beichen were innocent.
Moreover, Li Beichen did not want her to explain their relationship.
Shi Yuxuan curled her lips and a cold look flashed across her eyes. She said coldly, "It's not that I'm trying to seduce your second brother. It's just that I'm good in bed and your second brother can't stop himself."
"Ptui! Shameless! My Second Brother is not that kind of person!"
Li Nana gritted her teeth in anger. Raising her hand, she was determined to give Shi Yuxuan a piece of her mind. She could feel the wind from that slap. If she were to take that slap, her face would probably be deflected.

Shi Yuxuan restrained her expressions. Although her face was expressionless, her eyes seemed to be filled with hurricanes.
In the next moment, she grabbed Li Nana's wrist easily, digging her long nails into her tender skin.
The sudden counterattack made Li Nana scream in pain. "Ouch, ouch, ouch!"
She bit her lips tightly and glared at Shi Yuxuan angrily as she hissed, "Let go."
Yuxuan did not listen to her orders.
Li Nana tried to break free but to no avail. In the end, she was so angry that she raised her high heels and wanted to kick Yuxuan.
If she was kicked heavily by such a stiletto heel, it would be like a nail stabbing into her flesh, right?
Worried, Yuxuan dodged quickly.
"Hey, you don't want me crippled, do you?" Obviously, Yuxuan didn't expect Li Nana to be serious.
Enraged, she exerted more force on her hand. Her initially expressionless face was now filled with anger, and her aura was so strong that Li Nana was afraid.
"Let go of me! Let go, you b*tch!"
"B*tch?" Shi Yuxuan snorted and flung Li Nana's arm away angrily. She took a step forward in a domineering manner and pressed in on Li Nana. "Yes, I'm a b*tch. I stole your Sister Wenqian's sweetheart. But you can't do anything even if you don't like it. Who asked me to have the ability to serve your brother well in all kinds of ways?"
"You're a third party—"
"Slap!" Before Li Nana could say anything, her face was slapped hard.
In all her life, she had always been protected by Li Guowei. She had never been slapped or even scolded.
This woman actually treated her like this!
For a moment, Li Nana's mind was in a daze. Her body staggered and she fell straight to the ground.
"This slap is for the disrespect you've shown me just now!" Yuxuan sneered and looked sideways at the woman who was lying on the ground. "By right, I'd have to punish you with one more kick, but since you're Li Beichen's sister, I'll spare you for now."
