Xuanyuan Bei did not remain angry but instead let out a cold laugh.
That smile was chilling to the bone, causing shivers.
The other siblings felt a wave of alarm, realizing that Wei Jingjing had truly angered their eldest brother this time.
Unable to bear seeing Wei Jingjing suffer, Xuanyuan Nan once again urged, "Jingjing, stop causing trouble and go back with your second cousin."
"I, just, won't!" Wei Jingjing was like a rebellious child—the more you asked her to do something, the more she resisted.
Xuanyuan Nan silently sighed; he had done his duty as far as reason and morality were concerned. If something happened later, no one should blame him.
The eldest brother dared to punish even his own brothers, let alone a cousin.
Years ago, Fourth had been negligent while transporting grain and salt and had allowed bandits to rob the entire shipment.
Upon learning this, the eldest brother made Fourth retrieve the goods all by himself, insisting not a single item be missing.
