“Don't go too far!” Xia Xingcheng said angrily.

Bao was also pissed off by this. This bad auntie bullied him and his mommy last time, and this time she tried to bully them again. The little lad had a temper. He immediately stood up and gave Xia Xingyan a good kick.

“You are a bad woman. I won't allow you to bully my mommy.”

Xia Xingyan didn't see Bao coming. She was furious and shouted: “You ungracious little brat. I will teach you a lesson.” Then she held out her hand to hit Bao. Xia Xingcheng blocked her quickly and slapped back on Xia Xingyan's face.

“Who are you to teach my son a lesson, fxxk off!”

Xia Xingcheng slapped hard. Xia Xingyan's face turned red immediately. No one dared to hit her ever. Xia Xingyan cried to Xu Hao in tears: “Hao. She hit me! I just wanted to discipline Bao, and she hit me.”

Seeing Xia Xingyan was hit, Xu Hao's face went dim. Right away in cold voice, he said to Xia Xingcheng: “Xia Xingcheng, you went too far; apologize to Xingyan now.”

“Apologize? Never gonna happen!”

Xia Xingcheng did not budge. Seeing Xu Hao’s face, the face she used to miss day and night, she only felt disgusted.

Seeing her tenacious expression, Xu Hao felt he was losing face. He got very peeved and said: “Xia Xingcheng, the only reason I'm talking to you nicely is because of our history. Don't push it!”

Hearing this, Xia Xingcheng felt it was hilarious. She raised her eyebrows in disdain: “So what if I push. You’d better get the hell out now. Don't get in my way.”

Xu Hao was provoked by the aversion in Xia Xingcheng’s eyes. He had realized that she was not the woman who loved him to death anymore.

Xu Hao flared up. He grabbed Xia Xingcheng’s collar angrily: “Do you really think I wouldn’t dare to hit you?”

Seeing his mommy threatened, Bao shouted in anger: “Stop bullying my mommy. My daddy will come after you.”

Xia Xingyan sneered: “Your daddy? Sheng Yeting?”

“He's not your daddy at all. Don't call him daddy just because you think he is rich.”

“Everyone knows where you come from. You are a fatherless bastard.”

Even though Bao didn't understand Xia Xingyan’s words completely, he knew it was about him not having a father. He was stunned and looking hurt.

Xia Xingcheng became irritated instantly. She loved Bao with all her heart, and Bao had never been treated or abused this way. Those words would hurt Bao deeply; didn’t Xia Xingyan know that?

Xia Xingcheng lost herself in anger. She pushed Xu Hao away and grabbed a steak knife on the table, and then held it against Xia Xingyan’s neck. Her eyes bloody red, she warned, “Say that again?”

It was chaotic. Xia Xingyan did not see that coming. She’d never thought a fragile woman like Xia Xingcheng could have the guts to do such thing. She was scared to make a move.

While on the other side of the restaurant, Sheng Yeting was watching them from a nearby distance.

He was having dinner with his friends here. Hearing the noise outside, he got vexed and came out to have a look. But surprisingly he saw the mother and the son again.

A gleam of light flashed in Sheng Yeting’s eyes, but he covered it up. He lowered his head and had no intention to get involved in that woman's affair.

He saw them being laughed at and bullied again. From what he had heard, he knew that Xia Xingcheng did not go abroad, probably because the Xia family coerced her.

Knowing that she was not lying and he had misunderstood her again, Sheng Yeting had a strange feeling, but he didn't know why.

However, she was still a passing stranger, and Sheng Yeting didn't intend to help her. He was just watching in silence.

When Xia Xingcheng held a steak knife against her stepsister's neck, there was a different and strange expression in his eyes.

But it was gone instantly.

After seeing this, Jiang Xiyun who was beside Sheng Yeting was very interested and said: “This chick is feisty!”

Jiang Xiyun was Sheng Yeting’s good friend. They had played together since they were children. So they were very close and cared little about their ways of talking.

Sheng Yeting took a sip of the red wine from his glass and savored the sweetness of the wine in silence.

Now a lot of people in the restaurant were looking at Xia Xingcheng. Seeing Xia Xingyan was threatened, Xu Hao didn't dare to make a move. He could only shout at Xia Xingcheng, worked up: “Xia Xingcheng, I'm warning you, put the knife down, or I’ll call the police.”

Xia Xingcheng shook her head and held the knife a little closer to Xia Xingyan's neck. Her eyes were full of coldness: “No way. I won’t let her go unless she apologizes to Bao.”

Xia Xingyan could feel the sharp blade grazing her neck. She was terrified but she wouldn't admit it: “Xia Xingcheng, I dare you to cut me. Let me see what you can do.”

“Xu Hao. Don't listen to her. Call the police now!” Xia Xingyan winked at Xu Hao.

Xu Hao hesitated a little. He felt heartache seeing Xia Xingyan’s nervous face and immediately took out his phone and called the police.

At the corner of the restaurant, Jiang Xiyun laughed a little after seeing this. His beautiful eyebrows and eyes slightly bent up. He said to Sheng Yeting in a tease: “It's very interesting. When the police come, should I help her or not? This feisty woman is my type. And you see the little kid next to her; he’s so cute.”

Mindless words can cause offense. He didn't know why, but after hearing what Jiang Xiyun said, Sheng Yeting was not happy. He looked at Jiang Xiyun coldly. The meaning of his look was not clear.

Jiang Xiyun saw the expression in Sheng Yeting’s eyes, and broke out into cold sweat. To cover his embarrassment, he lowered his head and took a sip of his wine. But he was still glancing at Xia Xingcheng from time to time.

Did Sheng Yeting know this woman?

The police came in a short time. They did some inspection in the restaurant and acknowledged what was happening here.

A policeman walked to Xia Xingcheng and warned her: “Xia Xingcheng, put down the knife. This is a restaurant.”

Xia Xingcheng wouldn’t put the knife down even though the police were here. She was still saying: “Make her apologize to Bao, otherwise I won't pull the knife down.”

After hearing her, the policeman and his captain looked at each other. The captain was getting impatient; he frowned and said: “If you don't put it down, we will force you to.”

Xia Xingcheng tightened her body and didn’t budge under the tough threats from the police. She held the knife closer to Xia Xingyan and spoke word by word: "I don't care, you apologize first."
