Chapter 142: Chapter 142; Don’t give me that look

Before she could finish speaking, a chilling voice cut through the air.

“You can tell me yourself, Miss Xu. There is no need to look for Third Master Mu. He won’t have time to tend to you..” Su Feng, who heard some noise and commotion coming from the entrance near the elevator, walked over to understand what was happening and noticed it was people from the Xu family.

He had come across her in the business world, so she wasn’t that new to him and neither familiar.

Xu MingZhu stiffened upon hearing that voice; it didn’t sound familiar and neither unfamiliar to her.

She slowly lifted her head and gazed at that beautiful face approaching them… This… This… This was Su Feng? This man was feared and most people working in the business industry had come across him once in a while over an investment or project.

Xu MingZhu’s lips parted, moving up and down, but no words came out; she became speechless as she hadn’t expected to be caught so off guard, and by him of all the people.

Su Feng’s reputation was not built on rumors alone; he was a very beautiful man, with a face that you wouldn’t forget when you come across it and a ruthless man in the business world, he was known to be a multi-billionaire managing several companies, and if you thought Mu Yunchen was the only elite bachelor them there was Su Feng, he was a silent blade that many dared not provoke or cross paths with.

He stood just a few paces away now from them, and they could see that beautiful face up close; he was tall and imposingly calm, dressed all casually and playing with his blade that moved from one finger to another. You could see a few stains of blood as he hadn’t changed his clothes.

Xu Chenxi bowed his head respectfully, trying to pull MingZhu slightly behind him in a protective stance seeing that evil smile, “Master Su… we were just worried about Miss Zhou’s health condition and thought of checking her out. There’s no ill intent….. We just… We just…”

Su Feng’s eyes flicked to him briefly checking him out from his feet to his head, but his gaze returned to MingZhu like a hawk zeroing in on prey and ready to devour.

He beautifully smiled, a small, polite curve forming at the corner of his lips that made the temperature drop rather than rise. This man’s smile was beautiful and alluring but deeply lethal, “Miss Xu, you wanted to ‘tell Mu Yunchen’ something, didn’t you? I’m sure you wouldn’t mind repeating it to me first. I will pass it along if it’s important enough to get to his ears.”

MingZhu’s fingernails dug deeper into her palm consumed by jealousy. Her heartbeat thundered against her ribs, but her pride refused to bow and faced him head-on. “I just wanted to see her, Master Su. We have known each other with Mu Yunchen for years now and you can say we are family friends. Do I need your master’s permission for every breath I take near her now?”

She couldn’t understand why such two elite men surrounded Zhou Yuxi! What was she? Apart from coming from that unknown Zhou family, what else did she have to offer them that they could surround her like this?

Su Feng’s brows arched slightly, amused by her brazenness and the jealous burning in her eyes, a slight chuckle escaping his lips. He stepped closer, so close that she could see her own pale reflection in his sharp eyes.

“Miss Xu, you have just misunderstood what I meant!” His voice was calm, yet each word deeply echoed in her heart. “You do not need permission to breathe around her, but if you wish to step foot beyond this line….” he gestured to the polished marble threshold she was poised to cross “….then yes, you do need Third Master Mu’s explicit blessing, and you will not get it tonight. You should count yourself lucky that it was me who you came across and not Third Master Mu.” With the way Mu Yunchen was fuming, angered, only death could save someone at this moment for those who wanted to provoke him.

He always heard stories that Xu MingZhu had liked Mu Yunchen since he was young, but the man never reciprocated anything or even gave her hope for her feelings. Her infatuations towards Mu Yunchen were well known and her intentions wouldn’t be pure at this moment.

Did she think Mu Yunchen was someone she could tame? Did she think Mu Yunchen was someone she could scheme on? That man didn’t have to depend on any family to make a fortune. He was rich but Mu Yunchen was way richer and had more powers than him.

The way he looked at Zhou Yuxi wasn’t something he would ever change! He was obsessed with her. Even if she asked for his life, he would gladly offer her on a silver platter.

Xu MingZhu was fuming mad, her eyes burning with fury and anger, and she almost felt like she would go crazy.

“Don’t give me that look! I hate those kinds of eyes, and I don’t mind poking them, you know!” Su Feng played around with his knife, and with a close range, it almost poked her eye.

Xu MingZhu terrified, took a step back.

Xu Chenxi quickly interjected shielding his sister, laughing awkwardly to diffuse the intense tension that was building up. “Haha, Master Su, no harm done then; it was just a polite gesture, you know. My sister was just being… emotional, you know; she cares about people too much. Since there’s nothing that can be done, we will head back now. Please convey our well-wishes to Miss Zhou and Mu Yunchen. We wish her a quick recovery.”

Su Feng’s gaze didn’t waver from MingZhu for even a bit, and they could feel that hatred coming from her. Her knuckles were turning pale as her fingernails poked deeper into her palms.
