Chapter 445: Chapter 452 Be a Bad Guy

Blockhead struggled to get up, bearing the pain in his hand as he carried his elder brother on his back, and then they fled in a panic. Ning Xin’er didn’t even take another look at them, instead, she turned on the light in the room and stared straight at Li Yifei.

"Hey, I just saved you, why are you looking at me like that?"

"You bastard, where have I been?" Ning Xin’er clenched her tiny fists, glaring at Li Yifei with teeth gritted.

Li Yifei timidly said, "Didn’t I tell you? I went to enjoy the night."

"Get lost! Do you think I’m a child? Trying to deceive me? You get into bed now and you’re not allowed to go anywhere else." Ning Xin’er pointed at her own bed and yelled loudly.

Li Yifei crossed his arms and said, "Queen of the Amazons, please spare me, take into account that I saved your life, you can’t treat me this way."

"Go die!" Ning Xin’er, however, did not show a trace of a smile because of Li Yifei’s clowning around, but forcefully grabbed Li Yifei, pressing him down onto the bed and said resentfully, "I am your woman, if you really can stand letting me be raped by another man, then I will let you go! Tell me, if you dare, say you can bear it."

"This..." Li Yifei raised his hands above his head, chuckled dryly and said, "Anyway, I couldn’t just watch a woman being raped by two scoundrels, could I?"

Ning Xin’er sneered and said, "You can’t stand watching it happen, so you think it’s all right if you do it yourself, right?"

With this brought up, Li Yifei suddenly lost his temper and said with a wry smile, "This was my fault, I’ll admit it."

"You think it’s over just because you admit it?"

Li Yifei seemingly helpless said, "What exactly do you want then? I said I want a daughter, you don’t give me one, now my wife has kicked me out, you’ve already made me like this, you should be satisfied by now, right?"

"Not satisfied!" Ning Xin’er answered very straightforwardly.

Li Yifei let out a sigh and said, "Well, tell me what would satisfy you, but let’s get it straight, you can’t force me to marry you."

This time, Ning Xin’er didn’t explode in anger, but instead stared at Li Yifei and said, "That’s exactly what I was thinking. If you want your daughter back, then you have to marry me. I can’t let my daughter call another man daddy, nor can I allow her to call another woman mommy."

Li Yifei gently placed his hands on Ning Xin’er’s shoulders, and spoke in as gentle a tone as possible, "Let’s not get angry with each other today, I just want to talk to you properly, okay?"

Ning Xin’er was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Li Yifei, her eyes reddened, and tears began to flow down like a string of pearls.

Li Yifei was startled, hurriedly wiping away Ning Xin’er’s tears and said, "Why are you crying all of a sudden?"

"Hmph!" Ning Xin’er let Li Yifei wipe her tears, but said even more aggrievedly, "Back then, you never spoke to me so gently."

Ning Xin’er’s appearance of feeling wronged actually made Li Yifei feel a little heartache as he said, "Back then you were so naughty, and so fierce towards me; you were a rich girl, I was just a soldier, how could I dare to speak to you gently?"

"It was because you always ignored me back then." Ning Xin’er pouted, then slowly sat up and said, "Tell me, how should we talk?"

Li Yifei also sat up, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Ning Xin’er, honestly, you bore me a daughter, and you’ve suffered so much, as a man, I should take responsibility, for the sake of our child, to be with you."

Ning Xin’er’s eyes lit up and said, "Are you serious?"

"Let me finish what I’m saying..." Li Yifei paused, then continued, "I’ve been married before, and I understand all too well that marriage is no child’s play. It’s not just about responsibility, but about whether we can truly live together harmoniously. The issues that arise after marriage are much more numerous than one can imagine."

Ning Xin’er looked at Li Yifei and said, "Don’t always think about how fierce I was to you; that was because you kept avoiding me. These past few years in the entertainment industry, I’m known for being sweet. Do you think I can’t be a gentle wife?"

Li Yifei smiled gently and said, "In front of strangers, everyone wears a mask, like the people you meet outside; you can only see their shiny side, see their merits. But at home with family, a person will completely relax. That’s when many of their flaws are exposed, just like me. Do you know my flaws?"

"This... I don’t know." Ning Xin’er shook her head.

"Exactly, if we really got together, then you would find out many of my flaws, and then you might not be able to tolerate them. You simply do not know that I’m not right for you."

Ning Xin’er hesitated for a moment, but suddenly glared at Li Yifei and said, "How do you know you’re not suitable for me? We’ve never really been together; you’re just making excuses. You bastard, after all is said and done, aren’t you just trying to convince me to let you go?"

Li Yifei felt somewhat frustrated inside. Ning Xin’er was indeed harder to deal with now than before, but of course, he could not admit that. Instead, he smiled and said, "That’s my experience talking. Actually, Yingying and I also felt very suited for each other, but once problems arose, our feelings weren’t so unbreakable anymore."

Ning Xin’er pouted and responded, "That’s her. When Ning Xin’er is set on something, I will follow through no matter what, so if you’re trying to shake me off, there’s no way."

Li Yifei’s head was aching. He genuinely felt an instinctive aversion to Ning Xin’er. The impression she had left on him back then couldn’t be erased. If he had to be with Ning Xin’er, he really couldn’t do it.

Moreover, no matter what, Ning Xin’er had borne him a daughter. Li Yifei couldn’t harm her, and lately, he’d been even less inclined to get entangled with her. Since Ning Xin’er was so stubborn about it, he could only let her keep hating him. Lighting a cigarette, Li Yifei said, "Alright, if you’re so persistent, then I don’t care to bother with you. But I can tell you clearly, you want me to marry you? That’s not happening. I probably won’t ever get married again in this lifetime. If you want to follow me, that’s fine, but you’d better not interfere too much with what I do."

Ning Xin’er glared at Li Yifei and said, "Don’t even think about it. I won’t let you be with another woman."

Li Yifei spoke unyieldingly in return, "Then don’t even think about it. I’m Li Yifei, and I’m just that kind of person. As for you, Ning Xin’er, trying to tie down my heart—it’s definitely not happening."

The two stared each other down, neither willing to back down, like two fighting roosters.

For most people, to hold eye contact with Li Yifei for twenty seconds would be hard enough, yet Ning Xin’er managed to hold his gaze for a full minute and a half until her eyes tired and she blinked twice. Li Yifei had to admit he was impressed by Ning Xin’er’s willpower. A woman with such strength usually meant she was equally persistent and stubborn, just as Ning Xin’er had said—if she’s set on something, not even nine bulls could pull her back.

"Li Yifei, I’m telling you, if you dare to get involved with another woman in the future, I’ll cut you..." Ning Xin’er made a snipping gesture with her fingers.

Li Yifei disdainfully said, "Your threats are useless on me. I’m Li Yifei; I wouldn’t be with you anyway, so you won’t even get the chance."

"Bastard, have you really made up your mind to abandon your daughter and me?"

"What do I need you for? Being with you, this fierce woman, I have no sense of safety, and with another encumbrance. Will I ever have any freedom in the future?"

"You... you... you’re really shameless." Ning Xin’er, enraged, raised her hand to strike Li Yifei.

But Li Yifei quickly grabbed Ning Xin’er’s arm, pulled her onto the bed causing her to fall there, then stood up and said coldly, "In the future, you’d better not provoke me, or I’ll definitely make you regret it." He then strode out of Ning Xin’er’s room.

"Li Yifei, remember this, I will never let you go!" Ning Xin’er shouted angrily, then threw herself on the bed and sobbed bitterly.

Listening to Ning Xin’er’s crying in the next room, Li Yifei also felt quite distressed. But with the current situation, not only could he not reveal any affection for Ning Xin’er, but it was also impossible to tell her the truth. Otherwise, Ning Xin’er would definitely want to be with him. Joseph was a tough adversary, and knowing Ning Xin’er’s relationship with him, he would likely target her and even her daughter. He couldn’t bring them any danger.

The next day, Li Yifei left Ning Xin’er’s house early, not wanting to see her again.

After having breakfast outside, he didn’t go to the company or pick up Xu Yingying for work but called Su Mengxin directly.

"Mengxin, could you tell Yingying for me? I won’t be working at the company anymore. Oh, right, the company is yours, so it makes sense to tell you directly."

"Could it be that bad? You’re leaving the company just like that?" Su Mengxin exclaimed in surprise.

"Haha, going to the company would be awkward, and it would upset everyone. Why bother? I’m thinking of traveling for a while," he explained.

"Hey, have you run into some trouble? Tell me about it." Worrying Li Yifei might hang up, Su Mengxin quickly pressed for an answer.

"No worries, I just want to have some fun. Goodbye." Li Yifei said and then hung up the phone, turning it off as well.

At two in the afternoon, Li Yifei arrived at the airport. Today, members of the Silver Eagle would be coming, and thinking of meeting these brothers who had fought through life and death with him, Li Yifei’s heart surged with emotion, pushing aside his relationship woes.

The plane from Capital City to Mile City landed at the airport, and soon a group of people reached the exit. Four men quickly entered Li Yifei’s view. They were all around 1.8 meters tall, well-built, and full of vigor, their commanding presence evident at a glance.

This caused Li Yifei to frown. Why were it these four guys? These four were known in the Flying Hawk Squad for being flamboyant, dubbed the "Four Show-offs" by the squad, loving to make a scene—a trait somewhat mismatched with the squad’s principles. But their abilities were indisputable, which is why they had remained in the Flying Hawk Squad.

Seeing these four, Li Yifei knew that Joseph and his people were in for trouble this time.
