Chapter 134: Dong Jing
"Brother!"
Feng Conghu's face changed drastically. He had feared the worst for Feng Conglong, but upon sensing that his brother was still breathing, he let out a sigh of relief. He stood up and glared at Zhang Xiaofan. "What you have done is nothing short of declaring war on the entire Feng family. Prepare yourself for their retaliation."
"I’ll say it again: I’m waiting," Zhang Xiaofan replied indifferently.
"Take my brother home!" Feng Conghu flicked his sleeve in frustration. There was no point in staying for the party any longer; they had already lost all face.
Watching the Feng family entourage slink away, the guests in the hall finally recovered from their shock.
"Why go that far? A moment of satisfaction has offended the Feng family—the consequences will be unimaginable."
"He slapped the Feng family hard in the face; there will surely be endless hunts for him now..."
"Indeed, no matter how good one man is at fighting, how can he stand against a whole family?"
The surrounding crowd murmured in low voices. Zhang Xiaofan simply smiled lightly, walked over to Liu Susu, and naturally wrapped his arm around her slender waist. "Let’s go, darling."
"Oh..." Liu Susu paused, stunned, and began leading the way, seemingly unaware of the wandering hand on her waist.
Following Liu Susu, they quickly passed through another door into an inner hall, a place clearly reserved for those with higher status.
Zhang Xiaofan’s eyes lit up as soon as he saw Xia Shihan. The young lady was actually playing mahjong. Furthermore, the inner hall was filled with beauties, each one every bit as stunning as Liu Susu. Xia Shihan, carefully dressed in a low-cut pink evening gown, looked even more womanly than usual.
"Hey, Susu, who’s this handsome guy? Did you just pick him up?" The four women at the mahjong table noticed Liu Susu and Zhang Xiaofan at the entrance. Their eyes twinkled with gossipy delight, especially when they saw Zhang Xiaofan’s hand resting on Liu Susu’s waist.
Xia Shihan turned around, and upon seeing their intimate posture, felt a sudden, inexplicable pang of jealousy.
"Alright, Zhang Xiaofan, you just got here and you’re already taking advantage of my friend!" Xia Shihan chided sharply.
"Ah..." Liu Susu suddenly snapped back to reality. She pulled away from Zhang Xiaofan, blushing. "Who told you to hold me like that! You pervert!"
Zhang Xiaofan looked completely innocent. "Beautiful, didn't you ask me to pretend to be your man?"
"You, you, you..." Liu Susu was left speechless. It was indeed her request, but that was supposed to be over now.
"Quick, quick, tell us the gossip!" Dong Jing said, full of interest.
"It’s nothing much. I just played the role of her boyfriend and beat up that guy named Feng Conglong," Zhang Xiaofan said with a smile. "You tell me if I’m in the wrong. Now Feng Conglong wants to kill me, and all I did was hold her waist, yet she calls me a pervert. I’m so wronged..."
"What? You hit Feng Conglong?" Xia Shihan couldn't stay calm. Though the Feng family wasn't on par with the Xia family, they still wielded significant power. This guy really knew how to stir up trouble.
"Handsome, you’re really something, daring to hit even Feng Conglong..." Dong Jing giggled. "You’d better let your Sister Xia protect you. With her backing you, the Feng family won’t dare to touch you. Though it seems our Miss Xia is a bit jealous... haha."
"You dead girl, who’s jealous? Want me to rip your mouth open?" Xia Shihan’s face turned bright red.
"If you aren't jealous, why are you blushing? My, I didn't expect such big gossip the moment Miss Xia returned to the country. Haha, cradle robbing..." Dong Jing laughed wildly. To them, it seemed, Zhang Xiaofan beating up Feng Conglong wasn't as shocking as the romantic drama.
"It’s all my fault. If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have hit Feng Conglong. I just didn't expect this guy to be so ruthless..." Liu Susu said, still feeling a lingering fear.
"How ruthless?" another girl couldn't help but ask.
"He first crippled the best expert by Feng Conglong’s side, then slapped him twice, and stepped on his face with his foot..." Liu Susu briefly described the scene.
"Impressive! Really impressive!" Dong Jing gave Zhang Xiaofan a thumbs-up. "Little handsome, want to consider being my boyfriend? So dashing and capable of fighting—you’re exactly my type."
Zhang Xiaofan felt he was being treated like a plaything, but he wasn't about to back down. "Sure, let's go open a room and discuss life." His gaze swept over Dong Jing shamelessly; she was just as well-endowed as Liu Susu.
"Okay, okay, you’d better cherish your big sister," Dong Jing replied with a flirtatious wink.
"You dead girl, can you be normal? Don’t think he wouldn’t dare to sleep with you," Xia Shihan rolled her eyes at her.
"Xiaofan, what do you plan to do? I can help you, but the Xia family might not necessarily step in," Xia Shihan said seriously.
"No need, I can handle it myself," Zhang Xiaofan said, an invisible chill radiating from him.
"Alright, let’s leave it at that. Let's not talk about this anymore," he added with a smile. Sensing his confidence, Xia Shihan said no more; perhaps she had underestimated him all along.
"Haha, Master, I knew you were here." At that moment, Tang Fei’s voice rang out as the young master walked in.
"Master?"
The beauties in the hall, including Xia Shihan, were confused. Who was Tang Fei calling Master? Could it be this young guy in casual shorts? Seeing Tang Fei walk up to Zhang Xiaofan and greet him, they were stunned. How could this young man be Tang Fei’s master? Tang Fei was known for being arrogant and peerless.
"If you keep calling me Master, you’ll make me look old. How am I supposed to pick up girls?" Zhang Xiaofan said irritably.
"Haha, my mistake, my mistake," Tang Fei laughed. "Master, I heard you beat up that guy Feng Conglong? Don't worry, Master, your disciple is your strong backing. If that Wang family kid dares to seek revenge, I’ll break his legs."
Zhang Xiaofan believed Tang Fei had the guts and the strength to do it. While Tang Fei himself wasn't a fighter, the Tang family was a super-family—they certainly had formidable experts.
"Aren't you afraid your elders will object?" Zhang Xiaofan asked.
"What’s there to fear? I’m the only heir of the Tang family. If I insist on something, they will support me even if they object," Tang Fei replied.
"Why help me? I haven't really taught you anything, other than beating you in a race," Zhang Xiaofan said.
"Why? Do you really have to ask such a simple question? Because I took you as my master, and don't think I was just playing around. You are my master, so who else would I help if not you? Besides, Master is so badass—even that Mu Bai was beaten by you until he had no power to fight back. If I ever fail to show off, I’ll need Master to get my face back for me," Tang Fei said.
"Haha, good, I like what I hear. From now on, you are officially my disciple," Zhang Xiaofan said with a smile, sensing Tang Fei’s sincerity. "But let me handle the Feng family business myself. Your master isn't so easily defeated. Of course, if I need help, I’ll come to you."
"Oh my, little brother, I didn't expect you to be Master to Young Master Tang," Dong Jing said, sauntering over. She leaned in close, her eyes brimming with charm. Zhang Xiaofan caught her intoxicating scent and was tempted to make his move right there.
"There are many things you don't expect, big sister. If something were to happen between us, you’d be even more surprised," Zhang Xiaofan smiled, reaching out to wrap his arm around her waist. If she wanted to tease him, he wouldn't play the part of an innocent boy.
Dong Jing blushed instantly. This guy really dared to say and do anything—a total little scoundrel.
"Haha, lost your nerve? I thought you were the one teasing," Xia Shihan laughed.
"What’s everyone so happy about?"
At that moment, a pleasant female voice drifted over. As soon as Zhang Xiaofan heard it, his expression darkened instantly. At the same time, the beautiful figure who had just walked in saw him, and her expression changed drastically as well.
