Come Home with Me

That day,

The big guy obediently told the girl, "My name is Wei Dadong."

A very common name.

The girl nodded and said, "My name is Chen Xi. From now on, follow me."

Sometimes.

Wei Dadong always felt that life's encounters were very strange. Moreover, ever since he followed the young lady, they had been able to win every mission they carried out, until they met the man on the other side!

Damn it, I can't even punch it!

Li Yao rubbed his eyes, turned around and walked towards the tavern. "Alright, come home with me. And you guys, who are you trying to scare so early in the morning?! Come in, all of you."

Wei Dadong and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

One of the guys, his head wrapped in bandages, frantically signaled with his only remaining eye. "Dong-ge, shall we take him down?"

Wei Dadong: "..."

He looked at the young lady and found that she was smiling happily, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons.

Chen Xi excitedly replied, "Yes!"

She picked up Li Yao, sword in hand, and said with a grin, "Boss, wait for me."

Wei Dadong sighed, "Can you even do it?"

Stop, I can't keep going.

So, a group of people followed Li Yao back to the Lost Tavern. They were all burly men, their black suits bulging out of their places. Li Yao glanced around and said to Chen Xi with a pained expression, "What's going on here? It makes us look like the Mafia. Tell me, what happened?"

Why are you planning to leave without a word?

Chen Xi lowered her head, looking like a shy young wife, unsure of where to begin.

Li Yao pointed at the big guy. "You, come here!"

Wei Dadong: "..."

He suddenly stood in front of Li Yao, his towering height of over 1.9 meters making it seem as if he could pierce the roof! Li Yao looked up at him, hesitated for two seconds, and asked, "Aren't you short of breath?"

Wei Dadong: "???"

He stared blankly at Li Yao, seemingly not quite understanding why Li Yao asked that question.

well...

I don't understand.

Unlike Old Man Lu, who can immediately respond to anything I say and get thoroughly roasted by me, I'm left passively cultivating my mind all day long.

I don't know how many days it's been since Old Man Lu left.

I miss him.

Li Yao explained, "Don't you feel short of oxygen standing so high?"

Wei Dadong said, "I don't think so."

Holy crap!

"Straightforward, brother! But talking like that is giving me a terrible neck pain!" Chen Xi suppressed a laugh and said to Wei Dadong, "Find a chair and sit down to talk."

When Wei Dadong finally sat down,

Li Yao said, "Alright, tell me what happened."

Wei Dadong looked at Chen Xi, and only after Chen Xi nodded did he say in a low voice, "The Chen Family has a grudge against the Xiushan Wang Family because of some old matters. Some time ago, the eldest young lady took revenge all by herself. Now the Wang family is retaliating. The eldest master of the Chen Family died in battle, Third Master and fourth masters were captured."

Li Yao was puzzled. "Back then, I noticed that you didn't have a very good relationship with your uncles. Weren't you even fighting over the family property?"

Chen Xi explained, "I talked to them. They didn't care about the family's location; they just wanted revenge. All these years, I worked so hard for the Chen Family not to show off, but just to make my grandfather happy."

This is indeed something Chen Xi would do.

It seems that the eldest sons of the Chen Family misunderstood Chen Xi, thinking that she was working so hard to fight for the family property.

and,

Old Master Chen Beixuan did indeed favor Chen Xi, but after Chen Beixuan left, Chen Xi found the remaining members of the Chen Family family and explained her true intentions, thus clearing up the misunderstanding.

The Chen Family's upbringing was indeed excellent. The heads of the family were embarrassed by Chen Xi's words and decided to govern the Chen Family together, promising Chen Family Xi a share of the Chen Xi! However, Chen Xi didn't care much about these things.

After finishing her household chores, Chen Xi set about taking revenge... Her early loss of her parents was not an accident, but rather a deliberate act of retaliation.

When Chen Beixuan was alive, he could still restrain Chen Xi for the sake of the family's interests.

After Chen Beixuan passed away, no one in the Chen Family could restrain Chen Xi, and no matter how much his three uncles tried to persuade Chen Family, it was no use.

Chen Xi declared at the time, "This is my own business, and I will bear the consequences myself."

after,

She left home, using the skills she had learned over the years to lie in wait, find out his whereabouts, and finally strike down a murder to settle the score.

She thought that her Chen Family and aunts would take their anger out on her, but to her surprise, when she returned to Su Province, they told Chen Xi to go into hiding, saying that they had the family backing her up and that the Wang family wouldn't dare to go too far.

But they ultimately underestimated the Wang family.

He was beheaded by the Wang family with lightning speed!

Having said all that,

Chen Xi said, "My uncles and elders in the Chen Family protected me from disaster, and I can't just ignore it."

Li Yao thought for a moment and asked, "Is that Wang family that powerful?"

Chen Xi replied, "Twenty years ago, a member of the Wang family learned a skill and gradually became powerful. Now that I think about it, he must be the kind of person that Old Lu was talking about."

Wei Dadong and the others were still there, so Chen Xi didn't finish her sentence.

That's exactly what Old Man Lu said.

Those who understand will grasp it immediately, while those who don't will find it useless no matter how much you explain.

No wonder Chen Xi was prepared to take action personally.

Li Yao pondered for a moment and said, "After all this time, haven't all these things you've done been illegal?"

Chen Xi: "..."

Wei Dadong bluntly said, "Are you saying we're a criminal gang? I can sue you for defamation!"

The young lady said that all our businesses are legal!

However, some unconventional methods need to be used when protecting interests.

Li Yao looked at the big guy in surprise and asked Chen Xi, "Has this guy always been like this?"

Wei Dadong was displeased. "Are you insulting me?"

Li Yao replied earnestly, "Yes."

Wei Dadong: "..."

Damn it, I'm so angry! I can't beat him even if I hit him! He, Wei Dadong, is so wronged! Li Yao waved for the straightforward big guy to get away from him, and then said to Chen Xi, "Let me sort this out for you."

"That Wang family beat up your people, broke into your house, smashed your things, took your family members away, and most importantly, killed your family members, right?"

Chen Xi was confused, but still nodded.

Li Yao clapped his hands. "This is outrageous! Is there no law anymore?!"

Intentional harm

Damaging private property

Unlawful imprisonment of others

Maliciously murdering another person!

What a terrible thing this is!

You're actually thinking of settling this privately?

Li Yao thought this wouldn't work. He said to Chen Xi, "We must believe in the law. The law can definitely punish these evil people, do you understand?"

Chen Xi and Wei Dadong's group were all dumbfounded...

How fresh!

Wei Dadong shook his head and suddenly felt that this tavern was magical... Do we really live in the same world?
