The Strongest Mad Son-in-law-Chapter 1462 - 1465: Gambling with Life

Chapter 1462

Zhao Yanhong was very angry.
Xu Hao was about to head to the battlefield, and yet her family was still trying to hold Xu Hao back.
This was simply intolerable to her, and she immediately spoke these words to the second wife.
The Elder Zhao of Changyang Zhao Family immediately exclaimed in anger: "Outrageous! Zhao Yanhong, how dare you speak to your elders like this? Do you understand any sense of ethics and morality?"
Zhao Yanhong said coldly, "An elder should behave like one, but look at her! She's openly saying such things, clearly trying to hold Xu Hao back. Xu Hao is one of us, yet she acts like this. Thankfully, Xu Hao is broad-minded and doesn't stoop to her level. Otherwise, Xu Hao would have left long ago!
However, just because Xu Hao is magnanimous doesn't mean I have to be. For someone like her, I, Zhao Yanhong, must confront her and show her my strength! I ask you, do you dare to make this bet with me?"
Hearing Zhao Yanhong's cold question directed at her, the second wife of Changyang Zhao Family was momentarily at a loss for words.
She did not expect Zhao Yanhong to be so bold, directly questioning her courage.
She didn't have the courage to make a bet; after all, she only bullied the weak and feared the strong.
In the past, Zhao Yanhong didn't have strong backing, and Zhao Gongli didn't wield much power in the family, leading to Zhao Yanhong often having to swallow her words. The second wife could speak to Zhao Yanhong as she pleased, and Zhao Yanhong could only suffer in silence.
But now it's different. Xu Hao is supporting her strongly against the oppression from the Lü Family, and Zhao Yanhong can finally speak with confidence. This made the second wife of Changyang Zhao Family a bit uncomfortable.
Zhao Gongli saw that the second wife was silent and immediately said, "Aunt, what's wrong with you? Don't you dare accept Yanhong's bet? After all, you're so formidable; you're not actually afraid to take on Yanhong's bet, are you? Wouldn't that make you quite cowardly?"
Zhao Gongli's words truly struck a nerve with the second wife of Changyang Zhao Family. She heard Zhao Gongli's words and angrily said, "Zhao Gongli, how dare you speak to me like this? Are you planning to be like Zhao Yanhong, who doesn't respect her elders?"
The Elder Zhao also coldly retorted, "Gongli, you're getting more and more out of line. Yanhong has been living outside for a long time and doesn't have a strong sense of belonging to the family. So it's understandable if she doesn't respect us enough, but what about you? You were raised under our watch. Are you going to disregard all the teachings we've given you as well?"
Zhao Gongli coldly said, "Even though the Zhao Family raised us, it doesn't give you the right to restrict us unconditionally. Yanhong is not a child, and arranged marriages are no longer popular in today's society. What you're doing is unethical!
Today, Xu Hao is indeed rescuing his subordinates, but he's also helping Yanhong because he informed Yanhong when he came, so we could all watch the downfall of the Lü Family. But as for you? Not only do you refuse to help your own people, but you also ally with outsiders to bully them. Where is your conscience?"
Zhao Yanhong said coldly, "Brother, don't bother talking to them so much. Unless they're at death's door, they won't listen. Once Xu Hao defeats all the people from the Lü Family and deals with those who need to be dealt with, they'll understand who the true strong ones are. But, Aunt, do you dare to bet with me?"
The second wife glared at Zhao Yanhong and snorted, "A bet? I'll take it! But what if Xu Hao doesn't return triumphant?"
"At your disposal!" Zhao Yanhong said coldly.
"Very well! I like that 'at your disposal!' At that time, I'll personally hand you over to the Third Young Master Lu, and I'm sure he'll reward me, won't he?" The second wife said happily.
The Third Young Master Lu heard what the second wife said and immediately shouted, "If you hand over Sister Yanhong to me, I'll give you ten million Huaya Currency. How about that, Mao Tanfeng?"
He personally didn't have money, but the Mao Family did!
The Mao Family and the Lü Family were currently like grasshoppers tied together on a single rope; they must pull together.
Mao Tanfeng immediately said, "Hahaha! Good, since the Third Young Master has spoken, then my Mao Family will of course satisfy your request. I'll give you thirty million when the time comes!"
To the Mao Family, a mere tens of millions is insignificant. Securing someone as highly positioned as the Third Young Master Lu in the Lü Family is what's important.
"Haha, then I'll thank the Third Young Master and Mr. Tanfeng in advance. Xu Hao, I suggest you just commit suicide; after all, you're no match for the people of the Lü Family." The second wife immediately shouted loudly.
Zhao Yanhong glanced at Xu Hao, who had already walked to the entrance of the Lü Family's compound, and shouted loudly, "Xu Hao, I'm risking everything here, don't let me down. Otherwise, you'll never hear the end of it from me!"
Xu Hao turned his head to look at Zhao Yanhong and smiled, "Do you have so little confidence in me? Just a mere Clan Protection Formation with less than two percent power, do you really think it can do anything to me?"
