Yao Xiyu’s words caused many people’s ears to flicker slightly as they looked at each other trying to find the hidden aning behind those words. However, there were many people present who knew very well what Yao Xiyu was talking about.
Actually, there were world-renowned chefs, successful businessn from China, Hong Kong, the United States, Russia, Germany, etc; people from all over the world who had in so way or another a connection with the Yao Family. Even Yao i’s classmates had been invited although she was not even close enough to them to consider them friends.
Precisely because these people were ordinary citizens who neither knew nor had the right to know the existence of the skill users or Espers, Yao Xiyu was worried that these two powerful n would get out of control; in that case, they would have no choice but to re-implent the False Stars plan to erase everyone’s mory. The problem with this was that the False Stars plan consud a special energy that had been found several years ago in order to alter mory, so unless it was absolutely essential, no one was willing to use it.
Nangong Wentian clenched his teeth and looked at Gu Pojun angrily, "Old Gu, I have always respected you and you know it. I always admired how you are able to lead and guide our country in a righteous manner. But your daughter had better give an explanation here and now!"
"You..." Gu Pojun furrowed his eyebrows and a flash of anger finally manifested in his eyes. Although he was generally calm and even joked with Xie Feng, this did not an that he was easy to trample on; otherwise, he would not be considered the strongest of the five patriarchs. How could Gu Pojun tolerate being talked about his daughter, whom he loved more than his own life, in such a way?
Nangong Wentian did not wait for Gu Pojun to finish his speech and imdiately turned his attention to Gu Qianxue, who looked a little frightened but still kept her face straight.
"It was your father who suggested this marriage between families, not ! Do you know why your father did that? Because your Gu family has been declining and declined even more after your birth! Now you want to make a fool of my son? There is no door! Child, if you take back what you just said, then we can set a date for your wedding with Lei’er. Otherwise..."
BANG!
Before the patriarch of the Nangong Family could finish his words, a loud bang on the nearby table caused his words to stall in his mouth unconsciously.
"Otherwise... what?"
A cold and indifferent voice broke the silence and everyone turned their attention to the table behind Gu Qianxue.
There, a devilishly handso young man handso enough to charm any young girl inexperienced in love with his looks alone, was staring at Nangong Wentian with a gaze as sharp as a knife.
Of course, this person was Xie Feng.
At first, he patiently tolerated it because Gu Qianxue wanted to take care of the problem for herself. After all, he didn’t want her to feel guilty for being engaged to soone else but still need his help to free herself from those bonds. Xie Feng even tolerated it when Nangong Wentian shouted angrily after Gu Qianxue clearly expressed that she did not wish to be with his son.... But his patience had limits. This limit was broken into a million pieces when Nangong Wentian tried to threaten at Gu Qianxue.
Xie Feng was a very simple person.A person could ridicule him and the most he would do about it would be to make a fool of that person just like he did with Lin Tian outside the banquet when he tried to make fun of him. However, Xie Feng definitely could not tolerate anyone who tried to make fun of, let alone threaten the people he loved.
Everyone’s eyes were wide open and people who did not know Xie Feng wondered who he was to dare interrupt such an important conversation. However, many quickly ca to the conclusion that he must be the mysterious man the Gu Family princess was in love with.
Xie Feng ignored everyone and slowly stood up while keeping his gaze connected with Nangong Wentian’s gaze. He walked until he reached Gu Qianxue’s side and took her hand; it was only then that he noticed how nervous she was due to the sweat on her palm.
Seeing his action, the face of Nangong Lei, who was watching everything with a victorious smile from the side, finally changed and could not help but remark: "Let her go! You’d better let her go, or otherwise..."
"Are you as stupid as your father?" Xie Feng interrupted him coldly and did not asure his words in the least. "I won’t just take her hand. Open your eyes wide and look carefully!"
Then, under everyone’s stupefied, furious, and disbelieving gaze, he hugged Gu Qianxue’s waist and pulled her to him in a domineering manner. Without even a second’s hesitation, he kissed her directly on the lips!
Gu Qianxue was so surprised by Xie Feng’s sudden action that she could not react imdiately. It was only after several seconds that she finally understood what was happening and, without hesitation, kissed him back.
Gu Pojun smiled bitterly and shook his head while muttering under his breath so that only himself could hear, "That’s why I wanted to stop this as soon as possible.... Now it’s really over..."
As for Gu Qianxue’s mother, she couldn’t help but nod even while being worried. This was how a man should be! Arrogant, domineering, and proud! Only now did she finally understand the reason why her daughter had fallen in love with Xie Feng in such a short ti.
Xie Feng kissed Gu Qianxue for ten seconds before finally parting his lips from hers.
"Your fiancée? Don’t be so shaless!" Xie Feng looked at Nangong Lei and sneered. "She’s telling you right to your face that she never loved you and never will love you. If you still consider yourself a man then stop picking on her, damn it. Or don’t you have even a little bit of pride?"
"You... I’ll kill you!"
Nangong Lei, furious, completely forgot where he was and took a step forward. A flash of lightning flickered at his feet.... But all it provoked was a cry of pain from Nangong Lei.
"Damn!" he groaned as he held his head with both hands.
Nangong Lei was so furious after seeing the woman he considered as his own being kissed by another man that he had completely forgotten his ntal exhaustion after leaving the virtual world. Fortunately, none of the people present managed to see the blue lightning as it had disappeared in less than a second.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
Suddenly, Nangong Wenian’s sowhat hysterical laughter echoed through the crowd. As if he had gone mad, he covered part of his face and laughed loudly. The atmosphere had beco heavy enough that several people began to sweat.
"Look what a fine daughter you’ve raised, surnad Gu!"
After stopping laughing, Nangong Wentian looked at Gu Pojun and sneered. Then, he changed his gaze to Xie Feng and looked at him intensely.... So intensely that he seed to want to devour him with his gaze.
If a person could die from a gaze, Xie Feng would have been killed several thousand tis by now.
"Do you know who I am, kid?"
Surprisingly, Nangong Wentian talked in a low voice. So low that it was almost a whisper. But precisely because of that, people who knew well the kind of person Nangong Wentian was, knew how furious he was at this very mont.
Xie Feng looked him up and down several tis first and his lips curved upwards, forming a sneer as he said, "Aren’t you the father of that desperate dog over there? You’re probably just another dog. After all, it takes a dog father to make his son a dog too!"
Huff
The people gasped noisily and sucked in cold air as they stared at Xie Feng with wide eyes as if they were looking at an alien spacecraft instead of a human being. They did not know whether the young man in front of them was brave or stupid. But they had all silently co to a conclusion; Xie Feng was definitely dead. Even if Nangong Wentian temporarily let him go out for respect to the Yao Family and not to cause a scene, they all thought that Xie Feng was already a dead man.
"Alright... Very well..." Nangong Wentian smiled so much that his white teeth were practically exposed. Looking at Xie Feng as if he was his prey, he nodded, "I hope you can say the sa by the ti you get out of here."
Xie Feng simply smiled slightly. His answer was more than obvious even without speaking, it was as if he was telling him, "Anyti!"
The people finally began to retreat back to their respective places, but before leaving they all gave Xie Feng pitying glances. Especially the noblewon who had been enchanted by his appearance and manner.... What a waste... Such a handso man was going to die soon. That was what they thought as they sighed to themselves.
Nangong Lei also followed his parents, but not before looking at Xie Feng as if he was a dead man.
Gu Pojun, Yao Xiyu, Yang Jie, and Mu Xue, leaders of the other four main families, sighed in relief that everything was temporarily over.
"Father." Yao Zenyu approached his father and whispered a few words in his ear.
Yao Xiyu’s eyes flashed and he quickly made his way to the small stage to get everyone’s attention.
His daughter, Yao i, was finally arriving!
