At this moment, Tang Ruge had already gone mad. She suddenly ran over and pounced on Qiao Xi. The security guards were shocked and hurriedly went forward to stop her.

The originally gorgeous and solemn banquet hall was in chaos at this moment. Tang Ruge removed her mask as a noble daughter and hit the security guards in front of her. She cursed, “You bastards, let go of me!”

“Miss Tang, let me remind you that this is being broadcasted live!” Qiao Xi looked at her with a smile, then waved her hand to signal the security guards to let go of her.

Without the obstruction of the security guards, Tang Ruge rushed over without hesitation. Just as she was about to approach Qiao Xi, Qiao Xi suddenly grabbed her wrist. That strength was simply not something a woman should have.

“Miss Tang, do you still think that the Tang family can protect you? The Tang family can only protect you if the Tang family is still around. However, the Tang family is completely doomed now.”

Qiao Xi exerted a little force with her hand, and Tang Ruge cried out in pain as she struggled weakly.

Madam Tang hurriedly rushed over and shouted, “Qiao Xi, let go of her! Didn’t you hear that she’s in pain?”

“Heh, can’t you even endure this little bit of pain?” Qiao Xi held Tang Ruge’s hand even tighter. Madam Tang could even hear the sound of bones grinding against each other.

Looking at Tang Ruge’s painful and ferocious face, Qiao Xi slowly said in an extremely cold voice, “Madam Tang, your heart aches for your own daughter, but have you ever considered that those women who were trafficked and abused by the Tang family are also the daughters of other people?! Do you know how much they dote on them?!”

Qiao Xi’s eyes were filled with rage. The sound of bones breaking was transmitted through the microphone on the stage, then Tang Ruge’s wrist twisted in a strange posture.

Tang Ruge was stunned on the spot as she stared fixedly at her wrist. A sharp pain assaulted her, and her face was pale as paper. Then, she said, “Ah! Ah! My hand! Qiao Xi!”

Hearing Tang Ruge’s roar, Madam Tang disregarded her image as a noblewoman and rushed in front of Qiao Xi like a madwoman. “Qiao Xi! Are you crazy? Why are you doing this to Ruge?! Let go of her!”

Even though Tang Ruge’s wrist was already broken, Qiao Xi still did not let go. Her gaze was sharp as she quietly looked at the crazy mother and daughter. Her thin lips parted slightly. “Your heart aches for Tang Ruge, but the parents of those kidnapped women and children also feel sorry for them. You’re all parents. Have you never thought about the feelings of others?”

Madam Tang looked at the tearful Tang Ruge and lost her mind. She roared angrily, “What do their lives have to do with me?! Let go of my daughter! You b*tch!”

Qiao Xi lowered her eyes, and a trace of coldness burst out of her eyes. “Even at this time, you still don’t have the slightest intention of repenting?”

Madam Tang met Qiao Xi’s eyes, and her eyes gradually turned red. Her body seemed to be out of control as the words in her heart were instantly blurted out, “Don’t make it sound so nasty. We’re not selling people. This is just to satisfy the needs of some parties. If some people can’t conceive, we’ll sell them a child. If some people need a woman, we’ll sell them a woman. This is the best of both worlds! I’m doing this to let those women realize their value. In any case, they’ll have to get married and have children in the future. Isn’t this a good arrangement for all?

“And you, Qiao Xi. You’re so good-looking, and you only know how to seduce men. If it weren’t for you, Ruge would have married Gu Zheng a long time ago. She would have long become the top socialite in high society. What right do you have to block Ruge’s way? You should just die!”

Everyone did not expect Madam Tang to not have any regrets at all. Instead, she thought that it was reasonable for her to kidnap women and children. It was simply shocking.

[What kind of bullsh*t scholarly family is this?! Previously, I thought that Tang Ruge was gentle, polite, and knowledgeable. Now, it seems that the Tang family has just been disguising themselves too well. They’ve deceived all of us!]

[Tang Ruge isn’t good-looking, so all women who are better-looking than her should die? Is everyone who blocks Tang Ruge’s way going to be kidnapped, then?]

Qiao Xi was expressionless, but her eyes were filled with anger. She let go of Tang Ruge’s wrist and strangled her throat instead. “Madam Tang, if you like to do good deeds so much, why don’t you sell Tang Ruge? Let her realize her value!”

Madam Tang retorted without hesitation, “My daughter is the most outstanding woman in the world. She’s the top socialite in the capital. She’ll marry the most powerful and rich man. She’s also the future head of the Tang family. How can she be like you b*tches?!”
