After I Transmigrated as a Villain, the Campus Belle Came Knocking at My Door - Chapter 3:

Chapter 3: Cold Iceberg Adopted Sister, Brother’s Impressive, Right?!

What?

Su Bai supports canceling the engagement!

In an instant, everyone in the Su Family was stunned. Their gazes instinctively shifted toward Su Bai, who had suddenly stood up and spoke righteously, their eyes filled with disbelief.

No one could believe it. Su Bai, who had always lacked any opinion of his own, was now going against the old patriarch’s will and actually supporting the engagement cancellation. What was he thinking?

Could it be… he had taken some kind of benefit from his sister Su Ruoxue?!

Unbeknownst to them, the cold and elegant Su Ruoxue herself was equally confused. She tilted her head slightly, sizing Su Bai up from top to bottom, her eyes filled with suspicion and bewilderment. She even began to doubt whether this person in front of her was really her brother.

With Su Bai’s usual behavior, aside from being diligent when asking for money to indulge himself, when had he ever cared about anything else? Shouldn’t he have nodded instinctively?

Why was he suddenly supporting her in canceling the engagement, and reacting so strongly at that?

If Su Bai was truly acting for her sake, Su Ruoxue absolutely wouldn’t believe it. She knew her brother too well. Every day, he was either chasing women or on the way to chase them, his mind filled with nothing but lustful thoughts.

There was definitely something fishy here!

Immediately, she took half a step back, her suspicious gaze carrying a hint of vigilance. She even turned her body away, not bothering to look at Su Bai again.

Seeing this, Su Bai’s mouth twitched.

Girl, we’re on the same side!

So… couldn’t you at least act a little friendlier?!

At this moment, the room fell into complete silence. Just as the old patriarch’s face turned dark and unsightly, Su Bai’s father, Su Yue, strode forward in a flash. He raised his hand and smacked Su Bai on the head, then grabbed the unfilial son and threw him onto the sofa.

“I think you’ve played with women until your brain’s gone fuzzy. Cancel the engagement? How could that ever happen? Get back here right now!”

Ouch, damn it, who hit me?!

Oh!

Rich dad… then it’s fine.

In an instant, Su Bai clutched his head in pain and glared angrily, only to realize it was his biological father. The suppression from deep within his genes immediately made him shrink back.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t fight the old man. He just didn’t want to be labeled as unfilial. Of course, more importantly, this old man deposited 500,000 yuan into his bank account every month.

So… he would swallow this loss.

But the matter of canceling the engagement concerned his future happiness. There was no way he could back down. Su Bai immediately sprang up again.

Seeing this, Su Yue frowned and rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach this muddle-headed brat a proper lesson, to make him understand who truly held authority in the Su Family.

However, at that moment, Su Bai’s mother, Bai Ruo, who had remained quiet and graceful all this time, reached out to stop her husband. She gently shook her head and said softly, “The child has grown up and has his own thoughts. Let’s hear what he has to say.”

In an instant, Su Yue fell silent. With a helpless expression, he withdrew his hand and stepped back, though his sharp gaze remained fixed on Su Bai, as if saying, you’d better speak properly.

The old patriarch is already unhappy. If you mess this up, you’ll be the one taking the blame!

At this moment, the old patriarch, who had remained silent all along with a deep and composed expression, also shifted his gaze toward Su Bai. Earlier, he had said nothing because he wanted to see what kind of madness this disappointing eldest grandson was up to.

Now, he would give him a chance. Otherwise, if word got out, people might think he was an old fossil who didn’t respect the opinions of the younger generation.

“Speak!”

“If you can’t give a proper explanation, your allowance for this month is gone!”

His deep and powerful voice echoed throughout the room. Everyone’s gaze instinctively focused on Su Bai, their expressions filled with curiosity and a hint of mockery.

Like showing off, huh? Let’s see how you cry later when your allowance is cut and you start begging for forgiveness.

However, Su Bai paid no attention to their gloating looks. He stepped forward, his expression turning serious. He thumped his chest and spoke loudly with righteous conviction, “Patriarch Su, may I ask, what is the status of our Su Family?”

The head of the four great families of Su City, one of the four great families of Jiangnan, a dominant force in the region.

Hearing this, everyone was momentarily stunned. Then, Su Bai suddenly shifted his tone, directing his words at the Xiao Family without any restraint.

“Now look at the Xiao Family. In recent years, they’ve been declining, suffering losses year after year. Their stock price has plummeted. They’re about to fall out of the four great families of Su City and become some unknown second-rate family.”

“Since ancient times, a happy and harmonious marriage has always emphasized compatibility in status. Our Su Family is thriving. How could the current Xiao Family possibly be worthy? Even if my sister married into their family, she wouldn’t be happy!”

At these words, many members of the Su Family couldn’t help but nod subconsciously. It made sense.

Right now, the gap between the two families was indeed too large.

“Second, my sister is a heaven’s chosen daughter. She has already been admitted to Imperial Capital University. Her beauty is unmatched, capable of eclipsing the moon and shaming flowers. She is the perfect combination of intelligence and beauty, a one-in-a-billion existence!”

With a grand gesture, Su Bai pointed toward his expressionless sister in the crowd, praising her without restraint. At the same time, he felt indignant from the bottom of his heart, believing that Xiao Fan simply wasn’t worthy.

At those words, a faint blush appeared on Su Ruoxue’s cold face. She turned her head slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Who praises someone like that? That was way too direct!

Meanwhile, the other members of the Su Family, including Su Yue and Bai Ruo, couldn’t help but show a trace of surprise.

These siblings weren’t close in the past, were they?

Why was Su Bai now praising his sister as if she were a celestial being?

Although Su Ruoxue had dominated academically in Su City and even across the Jiangnan region, practically living the script of a top scholar, and possessed extraordinary beauty…

Still, those words didn’t sound like something Su Bai would say. It was truly strange. Had he suddenly changed today?

“As for her fiancé, Xiao Fan, he was indeed a business prodigy in the past. During university, he founded a website that earned tens of billions of yuan. But what about now?”

“He has faded into mediocrity!”

Clapping his hands together, Su Bai rolled his eyes dramatically, showing no attempt to hide his disdain. He had heard that Xiao Fan had insisted on investing in new energy vehicles, only to end up trapping the family’s cash flow completely. All the money had gone down the drain.

“How could someone like that be worthy of my heaven-blessed sister? No, absolutely not!”

He shook his head slightly, his tone resolute.

“Bang!”

At that moment, the dragon-headed cane slammed heavily against the ground. The old patriarch’s slightly aged face twisted uncontrollably, anger surging within him. His white hair trembled as he stood up abruptly, his voice booming like thunder.

“Impudent!”

“Just because of this, you want to cancel the engagement? If word spreads, how will others view our Su Family? Breaking promises, going back on our word!”

“How can I face Brother Xiao? How can I face the Xiao Family? You brat are simply tarnishing the reputation of the Su Family!”

As he finished speaking, the old patriarch raised his dragon-headed cane high, preparing to strike the muddle-headed and unfilial Su Bai awake.

A reckless, foul-mouthed brat!
