Bai Menya looked at Jiang Xiaohou.
"Why are you always protecting him? What's so special about him?"
"Then why is Brother Bai so determined to capture him?"
"The Bai family doesn't need to explain its actions to anyone from the Jiang Family."
"Heh. Is the Bai family really that arrogant? I never noticed before."
Bai Menya frowned slightly. "For the sake of my friendship with your brother..."
"No need." Jiang Xiaohou cut him off. "I, Jiang Xiaohou, have been domineering since childhood. My toys are not to be touched by anyone."
"Lu Chengwen is your toy?"
"My favorite one."
Bai Menya smiled. "Your father and brother will never agree to let you marry him."
Jiang Xiaohou's face darkened. "Stop talking nonsense in front of me. I said he is only my toy."
Bai Menya paid no heed to Jiang Xiaohou's protest and continued speaking to himself.
"It would be a joke if word got out. The Eldest Daughter of the Jiang Family wants to marry a black-hearted businessman. Heh. The Jiang Family probably could never accept such a marriage."
Anger blazed in Jiang Xiaohou's eyes.
"My brother didn't beat you hard enough. People from the Bai family may not have much real ability, but they're first-rate at putting on airs."
E Lai flew into a rage. "Huh!? What did you say!?"
Bai Menya glanced back at E Lai. Suppressing his anger, E Lai took a step back.
Bai Menya calmly straightened his robe. "Provocation won't work on me. Whatever I intend to do, I will do, no matter what."
Jiang Xiaohou said, "So there's no room for discussion? Third Brother, hold the line for me. Leave Bai Menya to me, and don't let that beast interfere."
Third Brother of Magic Rock appeared in an instant. "Rest assured, Your Highness!"
