Chapter 255: Chapter 255: It’s Still Early, Let’s Wait Together
"You really are smart," Yan Li’an praised generously, feeling a sense of pride swell in his heart at the same time.
Indeed, she was his sister.
Her mind just worked so fast!
Yan Wanqing touched the back of her head, "Because you gave me plenty of clues, big brother."
"Fu Mingyue harbored thoughts she shouldn’t have, which is why Shen Shuyun appeared, but who will ultimately remain will depend on their own methods," Yan Li’an hinted meaningfully.
Yan Wanqing squinted her eyes, recalling her meeting with Shen Shuyun, "Fu Mingyue won’t be a match for Shen Shuyun."
"Indeed, that seemingly timid person is actually the most deeply hidden, unfortunately, Fu Mingyue fails to see that now," Yan Li’an spoke slowly, suddenly thinking of something, "The person who came to Mingyue Town with you, what is your relationship with him?"
Watching them walking arm in arm, their demeanor intimate.
Yan Li’an couldn’t quite describe the feeling in his heart.
It was like having nurtured a cabbage for many years, only to have it uprooted by a pig one day.
Yan Wanqing’s cheeks flushed with a hint of red as she coughed dryly, "...he wants to marry me."
There was no need to hide such matters, her brother’s resurrection was too precious for her, so she felt no need to conceal anything further from him.
Yan Li’an nodded, asking, "Do you want to marry him?"
Yan Wanqing bit her lower lip, "...If there’s a chance, I would like to."
Yan Li’an’s face was expressionless, "Then you should hurry, Fu Mingyue loves to use men for training, and if you go too late, you might not want to marry anymore."
Yan Wanqing: "..."
"Aren’t you going?" Yan Li’an frowned as he saw her sitting still, urging her.
Yan Wanqing shook her head, "I trust him."
If even Fu Mingyue could make Xiao Pingfeng falter, then any Tom, Dick, or Harry could kick him twice.
Xiao Pingfeng, what kind of person was he?
He was someone even she had to respect a bit.
She felt it was already good if Fu Mingyue could survive.
The situation developed just as Yan Wanqing had expected.
While they were still talking, the door suddenly got kicked open.
Yan Li’an looked towards the door with a frown.
A woman with a bruised nose and a swollen face was thrown inside, her vivid red clothing making her particularly conspicuous—it was none other than Fu Mingyue, who liked to use handsome men for training.
Right now, she collapsed on the ground, just about to catch her breath when another heavy object was thrown onto her.
It was Abiao, also with a bruised face, pressing down on her.
Yan Wanqing twitched the corner of her lips, "A buy one, get one free deal."
Xiao Pingfeng stepped over the doorstep, his face expressionless. After his eyes swept over Yan Wanqing, they settled on Yan Li’an opposite her, and he nodded to him.
Yan Li’an: "..."
On seeing the Saint Heir, Fu Mingyue and Abiao reacted as if they had seen their own father, and immediately got up from the ground and crawled to Yan Li’an’s side, each clinging to one of his legs.
"Save, save us, Saint Heir! This guy is a devil!"
A devil?
Yan Wanqing raised an eyebrow as she looked at Xiao Pingfeng, wondering what exactly he had done to these two?!
Xiao Pingfeng crossed his arms leaning on the door frame, one foot resting on the threshold, his posture nonchalant, showing his grim teeth, "You’re still alive."
Implied within those words, you should be grateful you’re still alive.
Hearing this, Fu Mingyue and Abiao cried even harder, outright saying they’d rather be dead.
But no matter how Yan Li’an threatened or tempted them, they both stubbornly refused to describe the agonizing experience they had just gone through.
They simply kept begging him to save them.
Yan Li’an had no choice but to look at Xiao Pingfeng, "What do you want to do?"
"Nothing in particular," Xiao Pingfeng shrugged, "We should discuss this with your sister, I’ll listen to her."
Yan Wanqing blushed at his side.
Yan Li’an suddenly felt even more aggrieved.
Yet, Xiao Pingfeng continued as if unaware of the nuances, "They’re intact and able to speak normally, that’s a fortune bigger than their previous life merit."
Yan Li’an: "..."
Yan Wanqing immediately glared at him, "If you didn’t speak, no one would treat you as mute."
Xiao Pingfeng immediately pouted, "Fine then, I’ll stop talking."
Yan Wanqing’s face turned from pale to flushed. She felt utterly embarrassed in front of her brother today.
"You are, after all, the Crown Prince. How can you behave in such a manner?" True to form as siblings, Yan Li’an was the first to challenge him, or rather, to confront him.
Xiao Pingfeng was not surprised that his identity had been exposed, "Follow my heart, thus I act accordingly. What fault is there in that?"
What a carefree libertine!
Seeing Yan Wanqing’s cheeks grow redder, Yan Li’an kicked aside the encumbrances Fu Mingyue and Abiao, and slammed his hand down hard on the desk.
"Crown Prince, mind your dignity!"
Xiao Pingfeng stifled the impulse to roll his eyes, "After all these years, how can you still be so old-fashioned and dull? Truly boring!"
At these words, Yan Wanqing’s body trembled slightly.
She was holding back laughter.
Please, her brother was not old-fashioned at all.
He was just picking on you on purpose right now.
But she would not say it; she listened to her brother.
Yan Li’an snorted coldly and gave the Crown Prince a sidelong glance.
Seeing this, Xiao Pingfeng could only grit his teeth and apologize.
No help for it, since his life was in the hands of his sister.
If he offended his future brother-in-law, how would he win the beauty?
Fortunately, Yan Li’an was not too difficult.
Seeing the interaction among the three, even the slow-witted Fu Mingyue and Abiao realized that the situation was not good.
"Not good, he’s regained his memory!" Fu Mingyue exclaimed through clenched teeth, "I’ve told the Sect Hierarch before that we cannot spare the Yan Family. He never believed me!"
"You go send the signal," Abiao whispered to Fu Mingyue, "I’ll stall."
They had thought Yan Li’an being in charge would have made a difference, but the enemy had already moved ahead stealthily.
"Leave one alive," Yan Wanqing said softly.
The next second, Xiao Pingfeng and Yan Li’an both made their move.
Abiao was no match for the two of them. He couldn’t even last one round before he was pinned to the table. Meanwhile, Fu Mingyue hurriedly ran out the door, pulled out something that looked like a fire starter from her bosom, and tried to release it into the sky, only to find her limbs suddenly immobilized.
On closer inspection, her hands and feet were pierced through with thin needles, turning her instantly into a marionette.
She looked back in disbelief.
"Saint Heir! Don’t forget who saved your life!"
"It was you, so what?" Yan Li’an replied expressionlessly.
Fu Mingyue choked up with irritation, "If it weren’t for me pulling you out from a pile of corpses, bringing you before the Sect Hierarch, where would you be today? Don’t forget the trust the Sect Hierarch has in you, and the heavy responsibility you carry on your shoulders for the Divine Church of Light..."
"Nagging." Another silver thread shot through Fu Mingyue’s neck, silencing her instantly, unable to utter another word.
It was indeed Fu Mingyue who had saved him back then.
But so much time had passed, and Fu Mingyue had used this to threaten him no less than three times.
He usually didn’t care about such things.
But now, the times had changed, and it involved his background.
How could he tolerate Fu Mingyue’s threats?
As for the Sect Hierarch? And the Divine Church of Light?
Heh... What did that have to do with him?
Xiao Pingfeng, standing by, saw the nearly invisible silver thread in the night and couldn’t help but swallow hard.
Luckily, he had just admitted his wrongs quickly and sincerely.
If his brother-in-law had done that to him, one really couldn’t say what might have happened.
At this moment, Yan Wanqing slowly walked out from the house, taking the fire starter from Fu Mingyue’s hand.
She examined it in her palm and then aimed it at the night sky.
"I’m quite curious to see the true face of the Sect Hierarch of the Divine Church of Light."
She pulled out the thin line at the base, and the fire starter shot a sharp, rapid red light into the sky, then vanished into the heavens.
Facing Fu Mingyue’s incredulous gaze, Yan Wanqing smiled very gently.
"It’s still early; shall we wait together?"
