It Exploded

Xiang Feihu!

When that stern-faced man who liked to wear retired military uniforms appeared in the martial arts hall, there was no doubt that he stirred up a frenzy in everyone's hearts!

Yes, Li Nanbei was not in the Emerald Star Region, but the Li Family still had Xiang Feihu!

Everyone knew how this man, who hated evil with a vengeance, kept a close eye on Su Xiao, terrified that his brother's fiancée would be harassed.

And now, Ronan was being so intimate with Su Xiao in public—it was practically a vicious slap across the Li Family's face!

Xiang Feihu had a peculiar status. On the surface, he was merely a security guard, but in truth, he was the Li Family's adopted son.

Even Li Nanbei had always treated him with great respect, regarding him as a brother. Everyone in the Li Family called him Young Master Xiang, which showed just how high his status was.

One phone call from Su Jie was enough to make Xiang Feihu, who had already been lingering nearby, rush over at full speed.

The moment he entered the hall, his eyes locked onto Su Xiao and Ronan.

They were sitting alone on the sofa, clearly separated from everyone else, like a couple sharing their own private little world.

The hushed discussions and strange looks from the people around them made Xiang Feihu feel utterly humiliated!

This Ronan had truly become lawless!

And Su Xiao, in Xiang Feihu's eyes, was simply an unfaithful woman!

He charged forward in a single stride. In an instant, the martial arts hall's two bodyguards moved in as well.

But Xiang Feihu roared, "Get lost!"

He moved like a fierce tiger, taking down the two bodyguards in just two moves before quickly arriving in front of Su Xiao and Ronan.

Wei Wei suddenly rebuked him, "Xiang Feihu, how dare you provoke Yi Lin Manor!?"

The moment those words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

A large number of security personnel converged from all directions, surrounding everyone!

This was Yi Lin Manor!

No matter how arrogant the Li Family was, Xiang Feihu would not be allowed to run wild here!

Wei Wei felt slightly more satisfied and thought to herself that although Ronan did not understand the rules, he had unexpectedly managed to provoke Xiang Feihu. If he did something irrational, it would give Yi Lin Manor the perfect excuse.

Christine, meanwhile, analyzed the situation calmly:

"Ronan did it on purpose. Wei Wei, your father really did leave quite a few measures in place behind the scenes."

Wang Xiaoman looked utterly confused. "On purpose? Weren't we just discussing how Su Xiao was pursuing Ronan?"

Wei Wei helplessly patted her adorable but dim-witted friend on the head without saying anything.

She was actually rather nervous as well.

The Earl was not at the manor tonight. If anything unexpected happened, she had no idea how she should handle it!

But one thing was certain: if Xiang Feihu dared to act recklessly, then no matter how formidable he was, he would be staying here tonight!

Yet the people involved were not nervous in the slightest.

Of the three of them, only Su Xiao was uneasy, worried that Ronan might get hurt.

In her eyes, although Ronan's Side Kick was impressive and he should know some martial arts, he was still far inferior to a master of Xiang Feihu's level. After all, combat was not about strength, but experience and technique!

And those were things that could only be learned in the military!

To Xiang Feihu, Su Xiao's uneasy expression was clearly the shame and anxiety of an adulterous couple caught in bed. This only made him even angrier.

He could not understand why his outstanding brother had taken a liking to Su Xiao. Though she was indeed beautiful, what use was a woman who could not uphold her bottom line?

After their clash at the previous banquet, he had developed some wariness toward Ronan. He had also heard about Ronan kicking a sandbag flying and knew that the kid probably had some skill. But he had still come.

A youth of that age, even if he had some strength, could not possibly match a powerhouse like him, someone with a special forces background, in other areas.

Tonight, he had to settle this matter once and for all! Otherwise, he would be letting down his brother, who was currently on some unknown planet exterminating Mutated Creatures!

"Miss Wei Wei, there is no need to be anxious. I merely need an explanation."

Xiang Feihu stared coldly at Ronan. "Everyone knows that Su Xiao has a marriage agreement with our Young Master Li. Young men are impulsive, while young girls are easily drawn to vanity. Such things are common, which is why Young Master Li sent me to stay by Miss Su Xiao's side. I do not wish for anyone to challenge my bottom line—the Li Family's bottom line!"

"I need an explanation!"

Despite being surrounded by so many people, Xiang Feihu remained righteous and composed!

After all, he had come from the special forces of the Mech Combat Brigade. He was indeed extraordinary. This bearing alone was enough to make many people feel inferior.

An explanation. Wei Wei frowned. She had not expected Xiang Feihu to remain rational, merely questioning and rebuking them. Now the problem had fallen entirely on Ronan.

If he answered improperly, the Li Family might instead seize on it as a weakness and use it against him.

Su Xiao hurriedly spoke up. "Big Brother Xiang, we're just friends..."

"Don't speak yet!"

Su Xiao froze.

She had not expected that the person interrupting her would not be Xiang Feihu, but Ronan!

Ronan looked at her. "Don't say anything. Leave it to me."

Su Xiao fell silent. For some reason, an indescribable emotion and warmth surged through her heart.

Ronan stepped forward, once again placing himself between her and Xiang Feihu.

Was he defending nothing more than a friend's freedom? Su Xiao did not want to believe that. She would rather believe Ronan harbored some other improper thoughts.

Yet from Ronan's calm expression, she could not make out anything else.

Ronan's words undoubtedly added fuel to the flames.

The crowd secretly cried out in delight. It had been a long time since they had seen nobles of such status fighting over love and jealousy.

Could this country boy truly be enraged for the sake of a beauty? For a beauty like Su Xiao, he not only dared to face Xiang Feihu, but also dared to oppose Li Nanbei?

In any case, no matter who came out on top tonight, it would be quite a show!

Many people tightly gripped their phones, posting message after message and status update after status update on their personal social networks. Before long, everything happening inside Yi Lin Manor's martial arts hall had spread through the circles of Bo Ning District's nobility.

And some observant people had also remembered Ronan's terrifying Side Kick from earlier.

If Wei Wei had not forbidden them from posting videos, some thrill-seekers would probably have started livestreaming already!

Xiang Feihu's voice was icy. "Young Master Ronan, I need an explanation from you."

Ronan did not yield an inch. "What explanation?"

"I like Su Xiao. So what? Your Li Nanbei is allowed to like her, but I'm not?"

"And I want an explanation from you too. You cling to Su Xiao every day, and I find it very annoying, so please have some self-awareness and keep your distance from her in the future. As for this marriage agreement nonsense, what era is this? You're still pulling that kind of thing?"

"Are Su Xiao and Li Nanbei engaged? No, right? Then she is still free, and she has the right to choose! As for you, you're just a bodyguard. What right do you have to shout in front of me?"

The entire martial arts hall fell silent. Everyone stared blankly at Ronan.

Ronan was completely fearless, as if everything he said was only natural.

Xiang Feihu looked even more incredulous. He had never expected Ronan to be so direct!

The atmosphere at the scene became bizarre.

But social media exploded!

The most frequently appearing phrase in every Bo Ning District noble's personal status was—

It exploded!

It exploded!

The suspected heir of Yi Lin Manor publicly declared that he liked Su Xiao and wanted to compete fairly with Li Nanbei!

Xiang Feihu has already arrived, and it looks like both sides might start fighting.

Ronan's attitude is unbelievably forceful! He actually ignored the marriage agreement between the Li Family and the Su Family! This guy has no regard for the rules at all.

This time, it really exploded. Where is Li Nanbei? Someone's about to steal your wife.

Enough nonsense, hurry up and fight. I don't think this Ronan is an easy opponent either. Did you see that kick earlier? It was insanely cool.

Social media was filled with excitement!

Ronan's words caused a massive uproar. The people present spread the news frantically, while the few involved were temporarily unable to process the explosive impact of what he had said!

Wei Wei's face turned slightly pale, her mind filled with one sentence: "I like Su Xiao."

So he really liked Su Xiao...

Christine looked at her friend with some pity and silently sighed.

Wang Xiaoman looked at Ronan with some concern. "He's really competing with Li Nanbei for his fiancée? That's so unreasonable."

Su Xiao herself was completely stunned.

She lowered her head slightly and tightly gripped the hem of her dress. Her emotions surged wildly while her mind went blank.

Xiang Feihu's chest rose and fell. Ronan's words had clearly shaken him.

He had already forgotten how long it had been since anyone dared to challenge the Li Family!

Because even Yi Lin Manor had to consider the consequences of angering Li Nanbei!

In many people's eyes, Ronan's reckless actions today deserved applause, but most believed that what he was doing would bring catastrophic disaster upon Yi Lin Manor!

Xiang Feihu took a deep breath, then said in a low voice:

"Everyone must be responsible for their own words. Mr. Ronan, you are declaring war on the Li Family."

"Is twisting facts and fabricating lies what you learned in the military?"

Ronan mocked him without restraint. "When did I declare war on the Li Family? Can you have some shame? I said I like Su Xiao, and you insist on saying I'm provoking the Li Family. Are you sick in the head?"

Are you sick in the head...

Sick in the head...

Those words strangely formed an echo throughout the vast hall.

Xiang Feihu's face turned green, then white!

He had never been cursed at like this before!

But in the hall, many nobles who had long been displeased with him—especially the men who had once pursued Su Xiao only to be stopped by Xiang Feihu—were all secretly rejoicing!

That was f*cking satisfying!

Love between men and women was supposed to be a natural matter of mutual consent, yet this big-headed soldier idiot kept hovering around Su Xiao. Sometimes, he would not leave her side for even a single step. Ronan calling him sick in the head had perfectly voiced what most people were feeling!

The atmosphere in the martial arts hall had been pushed to the extreme. Ronan stared directly at Xiang Feihu without yielding an inch.

The latter clenched his fists and said "good" three times in a row!

The next second, he stared coldly at Ronan. "You say you like Miss Su Xiao? Fine. But every place has its own rules. If you want to like her, you must first get past me."

"I just wonder whether you have the ability."

Rip!

In the blink of an eye, he tore off his shirt, revealing his muscular body and black tank top.

"Li Nanbei's woman is not someone you can provoke."

"He isn't here, so get past me first."

Happy 520!
