Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 41

Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Arrogant and Presumptuous Youth_1

“You lowly commoner! How dare you lay a hand on me!” Bai Qingxuan, not expecting someone more skilled than him, was tightly pressed against the carriage, unable to move.

Bai Qingxuan’s eyes were bloodshot. He struggled and cursed, “I am the son of the Duke of Zhen! You lowly commoner dare to touch me. When my grandfather returns, he will exterminate your nine clans!”

Bai Qingyan’s eyes were filled with a fierce, murderous intent. To dare to say such words about exterminating nine clans! Leaving this heartless scum in the Bai family might bring about the family’s doom.

“Let go of my son!” The woman lifted the carriage curtain, jumped down like a shrew, and angrily hit and tore at Chen Qingsheng. “You lowly commoner! My son is the most esteemed son of the Duke of Zhen! If you hurt my son, the Duke will surely kill your entire family when he returns!”

Being the woman of the Bai family’s second master, Chen Qingsheng dared not lay hands on her by any means. He took a slap from the woman on his face and could only awkwardly turn his face to avoid her.

Bai Qingyan stepped out of the doorway, clenching the hand warmer in her hand. Her heart boiled with anger as if being cooked by fire. This mother and son… they were utterly foolish, vile, and malicious.

She closed her eyes, suppressing her boiling murderous intent, and ordered, “Chen Qingsheng, let him go! Have someone take the coachman and the old man to the medical clinic across the street first!”

“Yes, Eldest Young Lady!” Chen Qingsheng obeyed the order and instructed the Bai Mansion guards to take the injured to the medical clinic across the street.

The coachman, who was supported up, hurriedly bowed to Bai Qingyan in gratitude, “Thank you, Eldest Young Lady! Thank you, Eldest Young Lady!”

“You just wait! I will drag you to see an official!” The woman glared at Chen Qingsheng, quickly supporting her son and tearfully asked, “Xuan’er, did that lowly commoner hurt you anywhere?!”

As Bai Qingyan walked to the front of Manjiang Tower, the patrons and waiters crowded at the door watching the commotion hurriedly made way.

Just as Bai Qingxuan, who was holding his neck and preparing to cry in pain, saw Bai Qingyan, he was stunned… immediately filled with admiration, revealing a chilling gaze like a hungry wolf seeing prey. He pushed the woman aside, squinted his eyes, and walked toward Bai Qingyan with a grin, “What a beautiful little lady…”

“You are outrageous!” Chun Tao’s heart surged with anger at the foul words.

Chen Qingsheng feared that this scoundrel might hurt Chun Tao, quickly stepped forward to shield Bai Qingyan and Chun Tao, preventing Bai Qingxuan from approaching further.

Bai Qingxuan’s gaze swept over Chen Qingsheng, then fixated on the cold, snowy features of Bai Qingyan. He circled around her, eyes filled with excitement as if examining merchandise, eager to approach and closely observe Bai Qingyan’s beauty.

Chen Qingsheng’s expression darkened, just about to knock down Bai Qingxuan when Bai Qingyan spoke, “Chen Qingsheng, go check how the lady and the coachman at the clinic across the street are doing, and if the child is injured.”

Chen Qingsheng gritted his teeth and replied, obeying and stepping aside.

“Now that’s sensible! This beautiful little lady knows how to judge the situation. My grandfather, the Duke of Zhen… even the Emperor dares not provoke him!” Bai Qingxuan thought the stunning little lady in front of him was cowed by the prestige of the Duke of Zhen and grew even more arrogant.

Her pupils slightly constricted. If not for gripping the hand warmer tightly, she feared she might not have been able to resist drawing her sword and hacking the person in front of her to pieces.
