Capítulo 1163: Instigated

Shao Yunduan briskly left the room, striding toward Qiao Hongxi and positioning himself in front of the door. "Qiao Hongxi, what brings you here?" he asked calmly.

Qiao Hongxi's face was flushed with anger. "How dare you ask me that! You've bullied my sister and ruined her reputation! How could you have the audacity to question me?"

He had harbored the thought of hitting Shao Yunduan for a while, and he saw this as the perfect opportunity. Rolling up his sleeves, he prepared to strike.

Reacting quickly, Songshi stepped forward and grabbed Qiao Hongxi's hands, shouting, "Young Master Qiao, don't do anything rash. Our Fifth Master holds a prominent position as a fifth-grade Minister of Revenue, while you are merely a fortunate man from Hanlin Academy. Hitting our Fifth Master would be a grave offense to your superior!"

At the mention of Shao Yunduan's status, Qiao Hongxi's anger subsided somewhat.
