Chapter 51: Afraid That Your Mediocrity Will Not Satisfy Me
All the security guards outside had been knocked down by Lin Feng.
But those inside remained untouched.
Moreover, the people inside had no idea what had just occurred outside.
So when Lin Yang gave his command, more than a dozen security guards fearlessly closed in.
Song Yalan knew Chu Fei was skilled, but in front of so many witnesses, she didn't believe he would dare make a move.
If things went as she expected, Chu Fei and Zhou Mi would simply be thrown out, which would allow her to vent her anger—serves you right for treating me like a dog this morning!
In truth, Song Yalan had overthought things.
This young man Chu Fei, who seemed difficult to provoke on the surface, was even more arrogant and unruly at heart.
He did not care about anyone’s opinion; if the security dared attack, he would not hesitate to kill.
The moment the security guards closed in, Chu Fei stepped in front of Zhou Mi.
Even though, with her strength as the Fourth Senior Sister, these few guards were nothing to her, his beautiful young master had always told him—even the most cowardly man should stand in front of a woman in a fight!
It had nothing to do with gender.
It was simply because it made him look—
Handsome!
“All of you, get him! Beat him until he’s kneeling and begging for mercy!” Lin Yang waved his hand, ordering the security guards to attack.
This brat had humiliated him so publicly—he must pay the price.
And if he helped Song Yalan teach Chu Fei a lesson, perhaps he might even win the goddess’s favor!
Just as Lin Yang was indulging in these fantasies, an untimely voice rang out, halting the security guards.
The newcomer was none other than Lin Tianhao, who had just finished dealing with Lin Feng.
Seeing his father striding over, Lin Yang hurried to meet him. “Dad, this guy is causing trouble, let me just—”
Smack!
Lin Tianhao didn’t waste words. He raised his hand and slapped Lin Yang hard across the face.
Whatever Lin Yang was about to say, his grievances were all beaten back into his stomach!
Song Yalan stood frozen in confusion.
What was going on? By all rights, Lin Tianhao should be siding with his own son!
“Dad, what are you doing?” Lin Yang clutched his face, staring at Lin Tianhao in bewilderment.
“Apologize to this young man!” Lin Tianhao said coldly, “If it weren’t for his help, your brother would have stormed in here and taken you away!”
Lin Yang’s heart clenched in terror. “What? That lunatic came here?!”
“Not only did he come, he’s become very skilled,” Lin Tianhao explained. “He took down all the guards outside. If it weren’t for this young man subduing him, you’d know very well what your fate would be!”
Lin Yang’s greatest fear was Lin Feng’s return.
That deranged brother had cast a lifelong shadow over him. He never wanted to see that monster again.
When he thought about it, the thing Lin Feng had repeatedly said he wanted to reclaim wasn’t the Lin family fortune at all—it was Lin Yang’s dignity!
“I’m sorry, young man. My foolish son didn’t know his place. Please forgive him,” Lin Tianhao said, and then kicked Lin Yang. “Apologize to the young man, now!”
The reason for Lin Tianhao’s reverence toward Chu Fei was not only because Chu Fei had rid him of the Lin Feng menace, but more importantly, because Chu Fei’s strength was unparalleled—someone who could defeat a Martial Master in a single move was a rare force even in Dragon City.
A man like that, if not revered, must at least never be offended.
Lin Yang was shameless, but not stupid.
Seeing his own father treat Chu Fei with such respect, he immediately bowed his head and admitted his fault.
“I’m sorry, sir, I was wrong. And… thank you.”
Chu Fei, seeing his pitiful state, decided not to hold it against him.
Song Yalan, however, was left mortified.
She had thought that with Lin Yang as her backer, she could utterly disgrace Chu Fei.
Who could have guessed that Lin Tianhao would show such deference to him? Now she was truly in a bind.
“Mr. Lin, I…” Song Yalan tried to explain and smooth things over.
But Lin Tianhao waved her off. “Madam Guan, for old Guan’s sake, I won’t make things difficult for you. Please leave.”
“And our business cooperation?”
“We don’t discuss business during the banquet, Madam Guan. Please, and in the future, do not entangle yourself with my son again.”
Lin Tianhao had made it clear she was no longer welcome.
This woman had nearly led his son to offend Chu Fei, and yet she still wanted to talk business? What a joke!
Seeing his attitude, Song Yalan knew there was no use staying.
She gave Chu Fei a venomous glare and then took her leave.
Lin Yang wanted to chase after her, but Lin Tianhao barked, “Idiot! That woman is trouble you can’t afford. Do you want to bring disaster upon the Lin family?”
“Dad, it’s not that serious. Yalan just wants to cooperate with us…” Lin Yang protested stubbornly.
“Huang Guojie jumped from the hospital tonight. Did you know that?”
“What? I didn’t know!”
“The Huang family is utterly ruined. Did you know that?”
“No…”
“You know nothing, except to wag your tail at her like a fool whenever she bats her eyes your way!”
“Dad, I…”
Lin Tianhao had no patience for his son’s nonsense and ordered him to leave.
Only after Lin Yang slunk away in dejection did Lin Tianhao sigh and apologize again to Chu Fei.
“I’m truly sorry for the embarrassment my foolish son has caused…”
After a few more words, the auction officially began.
Lin Tianhao, as the host, left to take his place, apologizing once more to Chu Fei before he went.
Chu Fei did not tell Lin Tianhao the true reason for the Huang family’s destruction, lest the old man be frightened to death.
Still, Tan Yingyao had handled things with impressive speed—within a few hours, Huang Guocheng had already met his end.
Chu Fei was just musing whether to take Tan Yingyao as a subordinate when Zhou Mi’s voice reached him.
“What’s going on between you and Song Yalan?”
Chu Fei came back to his senses, and with nothing to hide, told her everything—how Song Yalan was his fiancée and what had happened between them.
Unlike Ye Qingcheng, Zhou Mi was not the jealous type and wouldn’t trouble Song Yalan over it.
Besides, this was a matter of destiny, and as the Fourth Senior Sister, she understood.
After hearing everything, Zhou Mi blinked and asked, “So, how would you rate her?”
“Rate what?”
“Her skills in bed, of course.”
“Ten out of ten!”
“She’s that good?”
“Out of a hundred.”
Zhou Mi was momentarily stunned, then brushed her hair back and offered a sultry smile. “And how many points would you give your Fourth Senior Sister?”
“Well, that depends on the exam. We’ll only know after the test.”
Chu Fei slipped an arm around her slender waist. “Fourth Senior Sister, tonight I’ll be your student—are you ready with the teacher’s outfit and gear?”
Zhou Mi pushed him away, playing coy. “Teacher is just afraid you, my failing student, won’t be able to satisfy me.”
With that, she swayed her shapely hips and made her way upstairs to the auction hall.
Chu Fei watched her go, thinking she truly deserved her title as the nation’s goddess.
Her waist-to-hip ratio was perfection itself, and the way her hips swayed as she walked was unspeakably alluring.
If he gave her a good smack, she might just fly to heaven…
Entertaining such thoughts, he followed Zhou Mi to the second floor and took a seat.
The auction officially began.
Not far from them, a man and a woman caught sight of Chu Fei, and the woman immediately showed a look of disgust.
…
Meanwhile, having just been “invited out” of the auction, Song Yalan received a phone call.
“President Song, someone has accepted the job. They’ll make their move in the next couple of days,” the voice on the other end reported.
Song Yalan’s beautiful eyes grew cold.
She crossed one arm under her heavy chest and held the phone in the other, her short cheongsam clinging to her stunning figure. With that expression, she looked every bit the beautiful yet deadly enchantress—a woman whose allure could bewitch the soul.
“Tell them to act quickly. I want that brat to pay the price for what he’s done!”
