Following that, Xi Mengru intimately linked her arm with Yang Feilong's and they walked into the Xi family's manor.
As they entered the courtyard, those present saw Yang Feilong and Xi Mengru at the same time Yang Feilong also noticed them.
"Him again!" Yang Feilong muttered to himself, not finding it strange, for Xi Mengru's beauty was apparent to all.
Men who did not value a woman's looks were rare, practically non-existent.
Of course, some valued it more, while others valued it slightly less.
And when it came to appearances, no one could overlook Xi Mengru's beauty, no one could remain indifferent to it. Not to mention others, even Yang Feilong himself actually placed great importance on a woman's appearance, otherwise, his girlfriends wouldn't all be so beautiful.
"Yang Shenbu." "Yang Shenbu."
The Leng father and son's expressions were incredibly awkward, especially Leng Yi, who felt stifled.
Putting aside previous matters, this Xi Mengru, whom he had set his sights on and acted upon, how could Yang Feilong have gotten ahead of him?
"What are you all...?" Yang Feilong looked at the two, feigning ignorance, and asked.
"Well, we heard that Mengru was unwell, so we came specifically to visit," Leng Guangjiang explained with a smile. After all, he was a man who had seen many grand occasions, and had already recovered from his earlier awkwardness, so his words were natural.
But Leng Yi couldn't speak. At this moment, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, one slice after another, hurting so much he couldn't breathe, and he felt humiliated, wishing he could escape this place immediately.
"Oh, so you're here to visit my girlfriend!" Yang Feilong suddenly realized, with a half-smile, "I thought you were trying to snatch my girlfriend again."
Leng Yi: "..."
Leng Guangjiang: "..."
"No, no, how could that be," Leng Guangjiang said, breaking out in a cold sweat and waving his hands repeatedly.
He felt Yang Feilong was warning him.
Meanwhile, Xi Ying Tian and Xu Jing, the couple, exchanged a glance upon witnessing this. Young Yang was very domineering, but why did it feel so satisfying?
Well, it was mainly because Leng Guangjiang had been so imposing when facing them before. They had been so cautious when dealing with Leng Guangjiang. Just now, when Leng Guangjiang mentioned a potential alliance between their families, even though Xi Ying Tian wanted to refuse, he had to choose his words carefully, simply out of fear of offending the Leng family.
But now, he had plenty of confidence. My daughter's boyfriend is Yang Shenbu, the divine doctor Yang!
If you can make him give up, then we'll agree, right? But would you dare? Well, you wouldn't, and you immediately conceded defeat!
"You, when did you two start dating?" Leng Yi finally couldn't help but ask, his voice still tinged with unwillingness, but also with some fear.
Yang Feilong glanced at Leng Yi, who felt an icy chill all over his body.
Of course, at this moment, it wasn't just Leng Yi who was curious; everyone else was too.
"Originally, I wouldn't need to explain myself to outsiders, but I suppose everyone is very curious, so it wouldn't hurt to say a few words. We've known each other for a long time. I was already attracted to her back then, otherwise, Mengru wouldn't have gone to that banquet," Yang Feilong said, looking at Xi Ying Tian and Xu Jing, who were equally curious, "It's just that I didn't know she was ill at the time, and she didn't tell me. That's also why at the banquet, she said I was the one she brought."
Alright, he was lying.
He said this to protect Xi Mengru, otherwise, people would gossip that the eldest daughter of the Xi family was not reserved, and seeing Yang Feilong's excellence, she had thrown herself at him.
Hearing Yang Feilong lie for her sake, Xi Mengru's heart was filled with emotion.
"You have so many girlfriends, why still..." Leng Yi, unwilling to give up, wanted to say more.
But he was pulled back by his father.
"I apologize, Yang Shenbu. My son is a bit out of line. I'll take him away now."
Yang Feilong looked deeply at Leng Yi, making the latter feel like he was falling into an ice cave, but he still spoke, "Originally, I wouldn't bother explaining anything to you, because you're not qualified. However, I'm in a good mood today, and I can't be bothered to argue with you. Xi Mengru and I like each other. What does that have to do with whether I have other girlfriends? Do you think you're some pure innocent?"
Leng Yi still couldn't help but retort, "My other girlfriends were just casual relationships. I'm sincere about Mengru, and I intend to marry her, even as my main wife!"
"You're sincere? You're sincerely attracted to her beauty, right? Why didn't you pursue her before? Now that you know her beauty, you're pursuing her?" Yang Feilong sneered. "At the time when she had an episode, what was your pathetic state, do I need to say it? If I couldn't cure her, would you still marry her?"
"I... you..." Leng Yi's face turned red. He thought no one had noticed his embarrassing state, but now, listening to Yang Feilong's tone, it seemed he knew. He was afraid Yang Feilong would reveal it, which would make him even more humiliated.
Well, he was already humiliated enough, but he didn't want his deepest secrets exposed.
Yes, if Xi Mengru couldn't be cured, even though he was attracted to her beauty, he wouldn't marry her. Because once she had an episode, Xi Mengru was truly frightening. If word got out, he, the distinguished Young Master Leng, would be mocked for marrying a woman with a severe illness.
"Moreover, I date my girlfriends with marriage in mind. I would never play with a woman's feelings. I never have, and I never will!" Yang Feilong said with a cold snort.
This, however, was genuine.
If his girlfriends didn't want to marry him, he wouldn't force them. But if they wanted to marry him, then he would marry them. As for concubines or not, he never thought about that. As long as they entered his household, they were all his main wives.
There was no distinction of rank or status among his wives!
"Please forgive us, Yang Shenbu. My son speaks without thinking. Please bear with us." At this moment, Leng Guangjiang dared not stay any longer, fearing his son would cause further trouble and provoke Yang Feilong into taking their lives.
They had learned through some channels that Yang Feilong had once massacred an entire family, the Lin family, which was no less powerful than their own family; no, to be precise, the Lin family was much stronger than their family.
Their family's wealth was greater than the Lin family's because they were a protected family by the authorities, merely receiving the government's protection and support.
Leng Yi was now utterly defeated and did not want to stay in this place of sorrow, fearing Yang Feilong would expose his pathetic state when Xi Mengru had her episode. Pulled by his father, he left.
Xi Ying Tian wanted to say something, but for a moment, he didn't dare to say anything.
He also did not see off the father and son. This was actually impolite, but at this moment, he couldn't afford to care.
Because with Yang Feilong's words, the Leng family would not dare to retaliate against their Xi family, as the consequences and cost would be unbearable for the Leng family!
