Chapter 14 - Xin'er's Determination

Ye Chenfeng, after seeing off the monkey, returned to the room on the second floor, his eyes fixed on Tang Xin, whose body was still not completely free of the medicinal effects.It had been three years since he last saw her.

The young girl had grown into a tall and graceful lady.

He remembered that three years ago, Tang Xin was still a high school sophomore!

And now, she should be in her second year of college.

The immaturity that used to characterize her was slowly fading, and her figure had improved a lot.

Then, Ye Chenfeng realized he was harboring an inappropriate thought and promptly dismissed it from his mind.

In his past life as a super talent nurtured by the nation, he certainly possessed the self-control.

He walked to Tang Xin’s side and sat down, gently stroking her head with affection and said, “These three years must have been hard on you.

I once promised that I would never let anyone bully you again.”

Ye Chenfeng then infused a stream of Soul Force into Tang Xin’s body, hoping to dispel the medicine in her system as quickly as possible.

Soon, his forehead was covered with a dense layer of sweat.

His current Second Level Soul Force was indeed too weak, not to mention the poor quality of the body he inhabited, not even having stabilized the Second Level Soul Force yet!

Tang Xin blinked her big eyes at Ye Chenfeng, feeling the power inside her gradually recovering.

Having not seen him for three years, she felt that there was something different about her big brother Chenfeng, but she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was—purely a woman’s intuition.

Once the emptiness inside her had completely vanished, Tang Xin threw herself into Ye Chenfeng’s arms, her voice filled with sobs and grievances as she said, “Big brother Chenfeng, where have you been these three years?

Why didn’t you come to see Xin’er?

I thought you didn’t want me anymore.

Promise me, you won’t leave me again, okay?”

Tang Xin, who grew up in an orphanage, was a strong and independent girl before she met Ye Chenfeng.

However, after he saved her once, the vulnerability in the young girl’s heart erupted uncontrollably.

Which woman in this world would want to bear the hardships alone?

Their strength and independence stemmed from the absence of a man to protect them from the storms of life.

This time Ye Chenfeng had specially come to Tianhai to visit the villa to give Tang Xin her freedom.

Tang Xin was a kind and simple girl, and her life was still long ahead of her.

Ye Chenfeng did not want to delay her happiness.

However, when Ye Chenfeng saw Tang Xin’s large, misty eyes, all the words he had prepared were swallowed back down.

He truly didn’t know how to break the news.

Deep down, he did not want to see this endearing young girl hurt and sorrowful.

“Xin’er, you are in college now, right?

Have you met any boys you like there?

If you have, don’t let them go.

Big brother Chenfeng supports you.” Since he couldn’t bring himself to say it directly, Ye Chenfeng tried a more roundabout way.

“Big brother Chenfeng, do you…

do you not want me anymore?” Tang Xin had decided in her heart three years ago that Ye Chenfeng was the only man for her in this life, intending to marry him when she grew up.

Though many were courting her in school, owing to her pure and beautiful appearance, she didn’t have room for anyone else in her heart.

Since the moment Ye Chenfeng had saved her, her heart had been completely filled.

Ye Chenfeng gave a wry smile and shook his head, saying, “Xin’er, I haven’t stopped wanting you; I’ll always be your big brother Chenfeng.

It’s just that you’re still young and should look for love that’s truly your own.

Otherwise, you’ll end up blaming me later.”

Tang Xin’s profile rested against Ye Chenfeng’s shoulder, inhaling the unique scent of the man.

Looking up, her beautiful eyes gazed at Ye Chenfeng as she said, “Xin’er doesn’t just want you to be my brother Chenfeng, Xin’er wants to marry you.

Xin’er only likes brother Chenfeng, and even if brother Chenfeng wanted me to be your woman in the shadows, I would be willing.”

The unrequited love of three years erupted at that moment, and Tang Xin became even more proactive.

Just three years earlier, she had been a bashful girl who would blush at the drop of a hat in front of Ye Chenfeng!

Squeezing Tang Xin’s tender cheek, Ye Chenfeng said helplessly, “Silly girl, there are plenty of good men out there, and I, Ye Chenfeng, am not one of them.

If you find a boy you like before you turn twenty-five, go and pursue your happiness!

If you haven’t found anyone, there will always be a place for you by my side.”

Tang Xin shook her head like a rattle-drum, a smile forming on her lips as she said, “Brother Chenfeng, Xin’er will not fall in love with another man.

Xin’er wants to be your little woman, and I will make you fall in love with me.”

“Alright, Xin’er, you should rest early,” Ye Chenfeng said, looking at the fatigue on Tang Xin’s face.

“Brother Chenfeng, I want to sleep in your arms,” Tang Xin cooed, feeling warmth and endless security as she lay in Ye Chenfeng’s arms. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet

Soon, she fell asleep in Ye Chenfeng’s embrace.

After gingerly laying Tang Xin down and tucking her in, a sudden murderous intent flashed across Ye Chenfeng’s face.

He always felt that if the matter with Qian Fei wasn’t completely resolved, there would be endless troubles in the future, especially as he was due for military training for a while!

What would happen if Qian Fei came looking for trouble during that period?

Qian Fei’s father, Qian Yunhu, was a well-known figure in Tianhai’s underworld, who had committed numerous crimes over the years.

Some local officials were even in cahoots with him, which is why Qian Yunhu had managed to stay out of harm’s way for so long.

Yunhu Group was a company established by Qian Yunhu.

On the surface, it seemed to engage in legitimate business, but it was actually involved in smuggling and drug trafficking, a veritable criminal organization.

In the VIP ward of Tianhai Hospital.

At this moment, Qian Yunhu was seething with rage.

Qian Fei was his only son, always so compliant, and now someone had shattered that part of his son, leaving him incapable of continuing the family line.

Wasn’t this tantamount to Qian Yunhu facing the extinction of his lineage?

With anger surging through his body and his face flushed red, he ordered a few people to take care of his son before leaving the hospital to return to Yunhu Group.

He couldn’t just let this matter slide.

Ever since Qian Yunhu made a name for himself in Tianhai, who dared to stir trouble in his domain?

Wasn’t that just asking for a death wish?

Qian Yunhu couldn’t believe that there was someone in Tianhai that he couldn’t handle.

He was determined to avenge his son and make the offender realize that they could offend even King Yama, but they should never have crossed Qian Yunhu.
