Chapter 407: Chapter 407 Impulse is the Devil

"Xiao Yifei!"

Zhou Meifeng hurriedly ran over, grabbed Xiao Yifei, and rescued Dage from his grasp, "Xiao Yifei, do you realize what you’re doing? You’re committing murder! Even I know that murder calls for retribution! How could you do such a foolish thing? Even though you’re trying to do it for me, you can’t be so impulsive!"

Zhou Meifeng looked at Xiao Yifei with a shrill voice, filled with worry, "What will we do if you really killed him!"

After being saved by Zhou Meifeng, Dage finally caught his breath. He collapsed onto the ground, taking deep breaths of the air that now seemed so precious to him, and his eyes, when looking at Xiao Yifei, were filled with lingering fear and dread.

Xiao Yifei cocked his head, looking at Zhou Meifeng with a light, clear gaze, and could see that Zhou Meifeng’s concern was genuine. She worried about the trouble he might get into if he killed Dage, not out of concern for Dage himself.

"Huff... huff..."

Zhou Meifeng was also breathing heavily, relieved that she had managed to persuade Xiao Yifei at the critical moment. Otherwise, the mistake made in a moment of impulsivity by Xiao Yifei would have burdened her with guilt for the rest of her life. Though Zhou Meifeng was not highly educated, she was innately kind-hearted. Not understanding Xiao Yifei’s true capabilities, she knew only the maxim that killing leads to retribution. Xiao Yifei was so good to her, she certainly didn’t want him to suffer any misfortune because of her.

Seeing Zhou Meifeng looking at him with such worry, Xiao Yifei gently smiled. He knew that if he tried to explain that he could have easily handled Dage, Zhou Meifeng would never believe him. Rather than trying to convince her, Xiao Yifei preferred to wait and see how Zhou Meifeng planned to resolve the situation.

Meanwhile, after hearing Zhou Meifeng speak, and Xiao Yifei had let go of his grip, Dage, who was deeply fearful of Xiao Yifei’s strength, thought bitterly, "Even at a time like this, you still act so innocent? It’s just farting around!"

At that moment, however, Dage knew that what he needed to do most was to save his own life. He had come to recognize Xiao Yifei’s truly ruthless nature—the indifferent attitude toward his life, as if he didn’t even regard him as human. So Dage knew that if he wanted to survive, he had to beg Zhou Meifeng for mercy.

"Meifeng, I was wrong, I really was! I’m worse than a beast! I’m less than a pig or dog!"

Dage kneeled on the ground, creeping towards Zhou Meifeng while wailing and howling, "I really made a mistake! Please spare me! A moment as husband and wife means endless devotion! This time I truly realize my wrongs! I promise, I will never bother you again! Really! I dare not! I beg you, please spare me!"

Dage kneeled and inched his way to Zhou Meifeng, reaching out to hug her thighs, but Zhou Meifeng dodged away with a frown and an expression full of disgust.

"Really! I truly realize my wrongs! I’m just a pile of dog shit! Don’t hold it against me! I didn’t know Mount Tai when I saw it today! I really made a mistake! I promise from now on, whatever you do, I won’t interfere again! Really! Meifeng, think about it, even if Grandpa kills me, it wouldn’t do him any good! Please persuade him to let me go!"

Dage was oblivious to Zhou Meifeng’s disgusted avoidance of him, and true to his shameless and sly nature, he was now even referring to Xiao Yifei as "Grandpa."

Zhou Meifeng looked at Dage with revulsion and said, "I’m telling you, you better behave yourself from now on, otherwise I won’t let you off so easily. You’ve hurt me so much, I really hate you. If it weren’t for worrying about affecting Xiao Yifei, I’d truly want to kill you!"

It was clear that Zhou Meifeng indeed hated Dage, but at this time she was considering Xiao Yifei and seemed to be relenting, "Just get lost! Don’t block my sight anymore. Who’s your wife? Don’t disgust me!"

Dage heard the implication in Zhou Meifeng’s words and felt a surge of joy, "Thank you, Grandma! Thank you, Grandma! I’m leaving right now! I’m leaving right now!"

The man with the golden chain, Dage, bowed repeatedly in front of Zhou Meifeng.

"Don’t call me Grandma, you’re truly disgusting. I must have been blind to have been with you before."

Zhou Meifeng looked away, not wanting to spare another glance for Dage, "Go away quickly!"

"Alright, alright! I’m going right now!"

Dage bowed several more times to Zhou Meifeng, then cautiously looked at Xiao Yifei, who stood aside without saying a word. Noting that Xiao Yifei just observed him indifferently, Dage felt a rush of relief. He got up, ready to run off at any moment.

"Wait up!"

Just at that moment, Zhou Meifeng suddenly spoke, startling Dayan, who had already run to the door.

"Clean up that mess you spat out! And no need to lick it, I find you utterly disgusting!"

Zhou Meifeng’s eyes were filled with repulsion as she gave Dayan one last look.

"Right away, right away!"

Dayan nodded and bowed to Zhou Meifeng, then threw himself onto the spot where he had spat, wiping the floor with his sleeve repeatedly.

"Grandpa, Grandma, I’m going to leave now! Thank you for your great kindness!"

After cleaning up, Dayan stood up, smiled sheepishly at Xiao Yifei and Zhou Meifeng, and said the words before he oiled his feet and made a fast escape — after all, every second longer was a risk to his life!

Xiao Yifei looked on indifferently at Dayan scrambling away and didn’t say much.

At that time, Zhou Meifeng stood still, her chest heaving with each breath, shaking, showing her mood was anything but calm. Her eyes, full of outrage, followed the direction Dayan had fled.

The words Dayan had said today had made Zhou Meifeng feel deeply humiliated!

With a fixed gaze at the door, Zhou Meifeng stood motionless for a while before suddenly snapping back to reality. Remembering where she was, she quickly turned her head and saw Xiao Yifei looking at her with a half-smiling expression.

Recalling everything that had just happened and the fact that she hadn’t asked Xiao Yifei before letting Dayan leave on her own initiative — although deep down she did it for Xiao Yifei’s sake, and Xiao Yifei hadn’t said much — Zhou Meifeng still felt somewhat uneasy as she looked at him.

She lowered her head and slowly moved to Xiao Yifei’s side.

"Xiao Yifei, you... you aren’t mad at me, are you?"

Zhou Meifeng said in a muffled voice with her head down, "I really did it for your own good. Although Dayan is truly nauseating and I really wanted to kill him, if he had actually died, it definitely would have been bad. ’A life for a life,’ and for someone as disgusting as him, I didn’t want anything bad to happen to you because of him."

After speaking, Zhou Meifeng gently raised her head and looked at Xiao Yifei, her eyes flickering; she was actually afraid he might blame her.

But at that moment, Xiao Yifei raised his head and looked at Zhou Meifeng, his face revealing a faint smile. What he said, however, was not about what Zhou Meifeng had mentioned but something else, "By the way, do you still want to leave now? If you want to go, I won’t stop you."

Hearing Xiao Yifei’s words, Zhou Meifeng shyly lowered her head, then quickly raised it again and said to him, "I... I don’t want to leave."

Xiao Yifei smiled.

"Xiao Yifei, how did you do that just now? That was so amazing. You took down Dayan in just an instant. He relied on his burly body to bully others in the village, but he was no match for you."

Zhou Meifeng suddenly remembered something and looked at Xiao Yifei with curiosity as she asked, "I always thought you were genteel, I didn’t expect you to be so formidable!"

Indeed, what had happened today had greatly surprised Zhou Meifeng. Xiao Yifei’s martial prowess was truly frightening, and what astonished her most was the temperament Xiao Yifei had shown — that indifferent attitude towards life. This made Zhou Meifeng feel, aside from surprise, a faint fear as well.
