I stormed down the mountain, took down all the big shots in the city, and the female CEO dragged me
Chapter 5, "Du Aili's Annulled Engagement," is quite good.
The disheveled Xu Xiang instantly perked up when he saw the woman in red approaching.
"My fiancée is the eldest daughter of the Du family, you know the Du family, right?"
Their businesses are spread throughout Dongshan, and they have connections all over Beijing.
"Never heard of it."
Xu Yuan's gaze remained fixed on the woman in the red dress, making no attempt to hide his admiration.
The woman felt his gaze, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she raised her head without any shyness, meeting his eyes with her own.
Xu Yuan's eyes were pure, her face clean, and her temperament was as ethereal as a child's, completely different from the men she usually met and the men surrounding her.
Even when his gaze was on her, it wasn't with the uncomfortable aggression and greed of other men; instead, it was with genuine appreciation.
There are usually quite a few boys who gather around her with insincere affection.
Whether it's flattery, fawning, or for her sake, or because of the power of her Du family, she can still distinguish between truth and falsehood.
"Let me introduce you to my fiancée, Du Aili."
Xu Xiang ran up to the woman in the red dress, straightened his back confidently, and pointed at Xu Yuan, spouting nonsense to Du Aili.
"Wife, quickly have the men you brought take him away."
That bastard child, I don't know where he came from, is causing all sorts of trouble in my house.
Look, he called me.
Xu Xiang pitifully showed his swollen fingers, which Xu Yuan had almost broken.
Du Aili took a step to the side, disdainfully increasing the distance between herself and Xu Xiang: "What are you yelling about? Who's your wife?"
Xu Yinsheng and Xiao Mei fawned over Du Aili with obsequious smiles.
"Xiao Li is here, let's go downstairs and sit down."
"No need, Uncle Xu."
Du Aili raised her hand to interrupt Xu Yinsheng: "I just came to see how Uncle Xu's condition is."
"Also, I've come to inform you that I'm breaking off my engagement with Xu Xiang."
"Resolve the engagement?"
Xu Yinsheng and Xiao Mei exchanged a glance, thinking they had misheard.
Xu Xiang, who was excited to see Du Aili, froze on his face.
Marrying Du Aili is the dream of countless men.
He was able to get engaged to Du Aili entirely because Xu Yinheng had unintentionally saved the life of the Du family patriarch years ago.
To repay the Xu family, the Du family patriarch agreed to marry his most beloved granddaughter into the Xu family.
Although Du Aili was unwilling, she did not want to go against her grandfather's wishes, so she agreed.
Unexpectedly, Xu Xiang turned out to be a complete disappointment. He was good at eating, drinking, and having fun, but utterly useless when it came to serious matters.
Some time ago, he even forced a girl to have sex with him, and the matter even made the news.
Du Aili gestured to the white-haired old man behind her, who then took out a document and handed it to Xu Yinsheng.
"Second Uncle Xu, this is the statement announcing the annulment of the engagement. Please sign it."
"No…"
Xu Xiang snatched the document away, preventing his father from signing it.
"The engagement cannot be dissolved."
"Yes, Xiaoli, we can sit down and talk about it slowly."
"Marriage is a serious matter, not something to be taken lightly," Xiao Mei also stepped forward to offer advice.
Her son had finally managed to marry into a wealthy family, and she was counting on him for the future, so she couldn't let him go.
Du Aili was unwilling to say more, but she gave the old man behind her a wink, and the old man spoke to Xu Xiang's family.
"This is also what my father-in-law wanted."
Xu Yuan noticed the old man as soon as he entered the room; there was a sense of familiarity about the old man, a feeling of kinship with him.
Musha?
The old man seemingly casually raised his eyelids and glanced at Xu Yuan several times, as if he were also confirming something.
Du Aili walked past Xu Yuan and saw Xu Yinheng sitting up on the bed, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes.
She had brought a doctor to see him before, and the doctor's answer was that Xu Yinheng would not wake up.
Xu Yinheng, standing before me, had a rosy complexion and clearly no longer looked like a patient.
"Uncle Xu, you're awake?"
"Xiao Li, you're here."
Xu Yinheng saw Du Aili with a smile on her face, showing off as she tried to get out of bed and walk around.
"Not only am I awake, but I can also walk now."
If they hadn't stopped me, I would have gone downstairs and run a couple of laps.
He casually pointed to his wife and children beside him.
Du Aili gaped in astonishment: "Uncle Xu, what's going on...?"
She suddenly realized something: "Was this the work of Physician Yan?"
"It's not him."
Xu Nuo's face beamed with joy: "My brother cured my dad."
My brother is amazing.
"Your brother?"
Du Aili was fairly familiar with the Xu family and had never heard that Xu Nuo had an older brother who was skilled in medicine.
Xu Nuo got up, pulled Xu Yuan along, and walked to Du Aili.
"Sister Ai Li, this is my brother's wish."
Isn't he handsome?
"Let me tell you, my dad actually wanted you to get engaged to my brother."
I just didn't know that my brother was still alive at that time.
Du Aili scrutinized Xu Yuan's long robe: "Are you a Taoist priest? And do you know medicine?"
"You are very beautiful."
"ah…"
A sudden compliment from Xu Yuan left Du Aili flustered.
Is it really that direct?
"You don't need to tell me." Du Aili turned her head away from Xu Yuan's eyes.
"I mean, I quite like you."
Xu Yuan immediately added another sentence.
"Cough cough cough..."
Xu Nuo coughed immediately and pulled Xu Yuan to the window.
"Brother, aren't you being a bit too direct?"
You need to be gentle and tactful with girls; you're being too much of a "straight man."
Xu Yuan tilted her head and glanced at Du Aili, not feeling that anything was wrong.
"I'm telling the truth, aren't I?"
Shouldn't you just say what you have to say?
What if you keep it all bottled up and it makes you sick?
"Well……"
Xu Nuo was speechless for a moment.
I don't know if my brother is genuinely clueless or if it's just a trick of his.
In reality, Xu Yuan doesn't really understand any tricks or routines; he just says what he thinks.
The siblings' conversation did not escape Du Aili's ears, and the usually dignified and poised girl blushed slightly at her ears and neck.
She'd heard plenty of confessions like that, but this was the first time she'd heard one as direct as Xu Yuan's, and she was finding it a bit hard to handle.
Xu Yinheng and Yu Juan exchanged a glance and smirked.
My son seems a bit silly, but his silliness is also quite adorable.
"You little bastard, what did you just say?"
Xu Xiang had been keeping an eye on Du Aili, and when he heard Xu Yuan's blunt words, he jumped three feet high on the spot.
"What kind of trash are you to dare to like our Xiaoli?"
I think you're a pervert, a scoundrel.
"What bullshit about love at first sight? You're clearly just lusting after her body."
Xu Yuan scratched his head innocently: "Aren't you one?"
"Bullshit, how come I'm the same as you?"
We are in love, we are romantic, we are emotional.
"Love, you bastard, do you understand?" Xu Xiang knew he couldn't beat Xu Yuan, so he took two steps forward like a mad dog and then retreated.
"I love you so much."
Xu Yuan muttered something to himself, which made Xu Nuo cover her mouth and chuckle.
"Okay, stop fooling around."
Xu Yinheng spoke angrily with a stern face.
"Second brother, take your family and get out of here quickly."
I want to talk to Yuan'er more.
"Xu Yuan, you want to steal my woman? I'm not done with you!" Xu Xiang glared fiercely at Xu Yuan before leaving.
Du Aili also got up to say goodbye.
"Hey, where do you live? I'll come find you later."
Xu Yuan watched Du Aili leave, and then added a final line.
Xu Nuo covered his face helplessly: "My good brother, you're going to scare the girls away like this."
Du Aili got into the car, glanced at her through the window, and smiled slightly: "What an interesting fellow."
Seaside Villa No. 16.
Wang Jinwei was carried inside, clutching his crotch.
"Dad, I'm doomed."
Our Wang family line is about to end.
They kicked my second brother.
Wang Jianguo, who was sitting upright on the sofa reading the newspaper, suddenly stood up. When he saw his son's swollen crotch, his face turned ashen, and a cold, murderous glint flashed in his eyes.
He only has this one son, and he's counting on his son to have more children.
"Who did it?"
"It's the Xu family."
After listening to the bodyguard's account, Wang Jianguo clenched his fists behind his back.
"Boss, shall I find someone to take care of that kid from the Xu family?" the bodyguard volunteered.
Wang Jianguo's eyes darkened as he pondered for a moment: "Killing him directly would be too lenient on the Xu family. Let him suffer more than if he were dead, to make up for my son's trauma."
"Ignorant brat, what year is this? You still think you can conquer the world with your fists?"
I'd like to see whether his fists are harder or my money is harder.
