Chapter 1002 - Just a Coward (1/2)

Not far away, the corners of Luo Xin’s lips curled up smugly. She had not planned on dealing Ling Sheng a heavy blow through this incident either. She just couldn’t stand her arrogance.

The person she had pinned to the ground thrashing was the young master of the Dongfang Family. The Dongfang Family didn’t get along with Huo Ci and the others because of that person from the Yan Family in the first place. She simply added another problem to let them raise hell over it!

The young master of the Dongfang Family wasn’t someone to be trifled with. He had followed in the footsteps of Huo Ci from the Huo Family. After Huo Xuanzhou, he was the new-generation tyrant of the capital. He had just turned 20 years old and was powerful and influential. He had been doted on by his parents, grandparents, and older sister ever since he was young. His character was impulsive and sinister. Among the younger generation, who wasn’t afraid of him?

Ever since Dongfang Fan had been born, he had never suffered such humiliation—being beaten up by a woman. If word got out, where would his dignity go? He definitely could not let this woman in front of him off. So what if she was Huo Ci’s daughter? Would his Dongfang Family be afraid of their Huo Family?

Ling Sheng also understood the situation now. She had heard that Dongfang Fan was the youngest young master of the Dongfang Family. As he had been born when his parents were much older, he was nearly 20 years younger than his elder sister, Dongfang Meng. He was exactly 20 this year, and he was even younger than Song Yiyan.

In the minds of the older generation, a wife three years older than the husband is like hugging three gold bricks[1]. When the elders on both sides got together, they hit it off immediately and agreed to the arranged marriage.

Su Yi saw that neither of them was speaking and that fire ignited again in their eyes as they stared at each other, sparks flying in the air. A second war was on the verge of breaking out.

“Ms. Su.” Yao Hua had rushed over after receiving Lu Yubai’s call. Luckily, he happened to be nearby. Before long, he had brought someone over.

Upon seeing Yao Hua, Su Yi finally heaved a sigh of relief. She could not let them start fighting again. She hurriedly urged him, “Go quickly. Go and stop them. Don’t let them fight again.”

No reason was needed at all for something like a fight.

On the other end, Ling Sheng shot him a disdainful, mocking look as a challenge. The brainless Dongfang Fan growled furiously again and charged toward her menacingly.

When Yao Hua stepped forward, he stopped him in the middle and smoothly grabbed Dongfang Fan’s arm. He said politely, “Young Master Dongfang, please show mercy. My Fifth Master will be here soon. Everyone, please let us head somewhere else for a chat.”

Dongfang Fan’s eyes were full of aggression. He struggled but did not manage to free himself. He glared at him nastily and bellowed angrily, “Who do you think you are?! Let go!”

He was just Lu Yubai’s assistant, yet he dared to lay his hands on him!

“Young Master Dongfang, please give my Fifth Master face. There are many people here, and it won’t be good for anyone if this matter gets blown up. Right or wrong, my Fifth Master will give you an explanation.” Yao Hua still had a polite smile plastered on his face.

Dongfang Fan let out a skeptical snort and kicked at Yao Hua.

Yao Hua dodged easily and latched onto Dongfang Fan’s arm. He shot a look at the bodyguard beside them and said, “This way please, Young Master Dongfang.”

After Dongfang Fan let out a blood-curdling scream, he started shouting loudly. “Just you wait, I’ll kill you! And that Lu Yubai as well! Tell him to wait too. I won’t let him off. See if I don’t get my sister to kill him!”

Upon hearing this, Ling Sheng let out a laugh. When Dongfang Fan was being dragged past her, she extended her leg to trip him and let out a cold snort. “I thought Young Master Dongfang is a true man. I didn’t expect him to be a coward who only knows how to complain to his elders.”

Dongfang Fan had tripped because of her. If someone had not been holding him up, he would have fallen to the ground and eaten shit. He glared at Ling Sheng viciously and gritted his teeth. “Just you wait too! One who doesn’t avenge an injustice is not a gentleman[2]!”
