Chapter 992: Chapter 1333 This is the Real Boss

Wang Xiaohong felt jubilant as she saw Cheng Yunlong and his men charging over. It was all because of this boy’s appearance that her plan got spoiled. Otherwise, they would have already forced Li Xinyue to marry Cheng Yunlong. Now she just wanted to see Li Yifei get beaten badly and, in his half-dead state, witness Li Xinyue crying and begging before eventually agreeing to marry Cheng Yunlong.

As beautiful as wishes are, reality is always so cruel. Just as Cheng Yunlong and his men had rushed in, some people unexpectedly leapt over the courtyard wall. Everyone thought they were Cheng Yunlong’s men and didn’t pay them any mind.

But very soon, everyone realized there was something different about these newcomers. They directly approached Li Yifei and Li Xinyue and began fighting with the people Cheng Yunlong had brought with him.

Cheng Yunlong had over thirty people with him, while only four had arrived later. This should have been a gang beating, but amongst so many, these four were like tigers entering a flock of sheep, fighting with fists and feet, shoulders and knees, each strike knocking someone down. In less than a few minutes, those four had downed all thirty people, leaving only Cheng Yunlong standing there.

Li An was dumbfounded, so were Wang Xiaohong and Li Xuehai, and even Cheng Yunlong was dumbfounded at this point. This situation completely exceeded their understanding, completely surpassed their imaginations. Four men against more than thirty, and in such a short time all thirty were incapacitated. Hearing the groaning and gasping sounds from the ground, one could tell each one was seriously injured.

"Boss!" After finishing the fight, the four men greeted Li Yifei and then stood behind him. For them, dealing with these ordinary folks didn’t bring any sense of achievement.

Li Xinyue was also dumbstruck; she had thought Li Yifei would personally take action, never expecting four men to suddenly appear, and clearly, these men were Li Yifei’s subordinates. This was her first time seeing Li Yifei’s people in action.

"Boss... boss..." Cheng Yunlong wailed internally. With such a title and such formidable subordinates, how could this guy in front of him be an ordinary person? Remembering what he had overlooked a moment ago also suddenly came back to him.

Li Xinyue, an emcee of her stature, how could an ordinary person attract her attention? The way he faced him, completely calm and aloof, not even regarding him seriously, he hadn’t noticed before. This showed the man was someone capable, and here he had been treating him like an idiotic young man, when he was the real fool.

"Boss... boss..." Cheng Yunlong swallowed hard, struggling to utter a few words, then with a smile attempting to approach, stuttered, "I truly didn’t recognize Mount Tai. I didn’t know... where does Boss hang out?"

Li Yifei said indifferently, "You still don’t deserve to know who I am."

Cheng Yunlong had intended to probe for more details, but the arrogant retort discouraged him instantly, awkwardly saying, "Yes, yes, it’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have thought about... taking advantage of your wife. I won’t dare again, I’m leaving right away, right away." Saying this, he wanted to slip away, not wishing to be knocked to the ground like his underlings.

Li Yifei snorted, "Leaving just like that?"

Cheng Yunlong paused, his facial skin twitched as he grimaced, "Does Boss have any other orders?"

Li Yifei snorted again, "Where’s the IOU?"

Cheng Yunlong hurriedly pulled out the IOU from his pocket, scampering over to Li Yifei, "Boss, here’s the IOU for you. Consider this debt canceled."

This 1.2 million was originally a trap he had set, loaned to Wang Xiaohong and then returned to his hands, so he really hadn’t lost anything.

Li Yifei took the IOU, handed it casually to Li Xinyue, and said, "Scram."

Cheng Yunlong quickly nodded and bowed, retreating two steps before turning and running out of the courtyard. Those underlings were also gritting their teeth and getting up, leaving swiftly, and Li Yifei’s four men also departed immediately.

The courtyard was left unusually quiet with only Li Xinyue’s family remaining, but Li An, Wang Xiaohong, and Li Xuehai were all staring at Li Yifei as if looking at a monster.

"Xinyue, this... this..." Li An stammered, glancing at Li Xinyue and peeking at Li Yifei, his eyes filled with awe.

Li Xinyue smiled slightly, "Dad, I told you, with my husband here, that Cheng Yunlong can’t do much."

"Yes, yes..." Li An gave a dry laugh, appearing uneasy in front of Li Yifei, also feeling secretly apprehensive. Li Yifei turned out to be a big boss, possibly involved in some shady dealings. Although young, having his daughter with such a person made him feel uneasy.

Li Xinyue took her father’s hand, softly saying, "Dad, don’t be scared, Yifei is not a bad person. Only bad people are afraid of him."

"Is he a police officer?"

Li Xinyue snorted with laughter, "No, but even the police wouldn’t dare to mess with him, so rest assured."

"Oh, that sounds impressive," Li An muttered dubiously, but he still had no clue what exactly Yifei did for a living, and he was too afraid to ask.

It was only now that Wang Xiaohong and Li Xuehai seemed to recover from their shock. They exchanged looks of astonishment as they had never expected the despised Yifei to be so formidable that even a big shot like Boss Cheng had run off, and even settled a debt of over a million just like that. It was incredible.

"Go and cozy up to your brother-in-law," Wang Xiaohong nudged her son, knowing she had already deeply offended both Li Xinyue and Yifei. At this point, her intervening would likely only worsen things. Besides, Xuehai was Xinyue’s brother by blood, she wouldn’t really harm him, so it was best for Xuehai to step forward now.

Li Xuehai quickly trotted over to Yifei with an ingratiating smile, "Brother-in-law, you were really cool just now, I really admire you."

Yifei frowned; he had always despised such fickle and insincere people. Xinyue’s face also darkened, "Weren’t you trying to drive him away just earlier?"

Li Xuehai, thick-skinned as ever, chuckled, "Sis, don’t be mad at me. I was just thinking of your best interest, hoping you’d marry well. I didn’t know our brother-in-law was so capable; if I had known, I would’ve agreed much earlier."

Li Xinyue sniffed, "Please, look after yourself first before attempting to interfere with me."

"Right, right, sis, brother-in-law, I’ll listen to you from now on. Brother-in-law, were those people earlier all your subordinates? I heard them calling you ’boss.’"

Yifei ignored Xuehai and instead said to Xinyue, "Xinyue, everything has been sorted. Let’s head back."

Xinyue nodded, "Okay, let’s go home." Then, she turned to her father, "Dad, we’re heading back. About the household..." She hesitated, truly wanting her father to divorce this woman after Wang Xiaohong had overstepped her bounds grotesquely. She would rather take care of her father herself, but recalling that her father and stepmother had spent over twenty years together, and she had a brother, she couldn’t just force her father to make this decision.

Li An quickly said, "Then you guys head back."

Seeing Yifei and Xinyue about to leave, Wang Xiaohong couldn’t keep calm anymore and hurried over with a smile, "Xinyue, you brought your boyfriend here for the first time, how can you rush off like this? You must at least stay for a meal. Old Li, go buy some groceries quickly. We need to properly host our new son-in-law. No, wait, Old Li, you stay and chat with the kids. Xuehai, go buy the groceries, and get the good stuff."

Yifei looked at this woman in disgust. A woman may be vain, greedy, and have all sorts of minor flaws, but someone like Wang Xiaohong repulsed Yifei to the point where he couldn’t even bear to glance at her.

Xinyue, feeling Yifei’s impatience, ignored Wang Xiaohong and told her father, "Dad, I’ll be going first. If you’re ever unhappy, just come into the city. I’ll take care of you."

Yifei also nodded, "I am very clear about my gratitude and resentments. If you consider what’s best for Xinyue, then I will respect you as Xinyue does. But if anyone tries to bully her, I will show no mercy, no matter who it is." He glanced at Wang Xiaohong and Li Xuehai as he spoke.

Wang Xiaohong and Li Xuehai felt a sudden throb in their hearts out of fear from Yifei’s gaze. Wang Xiaohong frantically signaled her husband with her eyes, but Li An ignored her completely, escorting Yifei and Xinyue out of the yard, watching them get into the car and drive away before heading back inside.

Wang Xiaohong approached, complaining, "You, why didn’t you make Xinyue and her partner stay? It was their first visit, and you let them leave like that. Isn’t that rude of us?"

"You’re aware of being rude now?" Li An retorted irritably.

Wang Xiaohong’s anger flared up as she snapped, "Li An, what are you implying?"

Li An coldly scoffed, "I mean nothing more than telling you, there has to be a limit in behavior. You’ve crossed my line."

Wang Xiaohong, who had never seen her husband speak to her like this, nearly threw a tantrum, but suddenly realizing a grave issue—if she pushed Li An too far and he truly divorced her, she would lose everything—she dared not unleash her temper anymore.
