In fact, Shi Guanlin has been coveting Mu Yanluo's beauty for quite some time!
When Mr. Scar was still around, he was cautious, not wanting to upset the hierarchy of the martial arts world. But now that Mr. Scar is struggling to protect himself, what does he have to worry about?
Since Mu Yanluo stepped through the door seeking his help, his eyes never left Mu Yanluo's graceful, seductive figure. He finally couldn't resist expressing his intentions, but he didn't expect Mu Yanluo to react in such shock and anger!
Shi Guanlin felt a bit regretful, realizing he had exposed his intentions too quickly and should have taken it slow. After all, with Mr. Scar out of the picture, he had plenty of opportunities!
"Ahem, Sister Luo, don't misunderstand me. Perhaps I didn't express myself well, but my intentions are good, you need to understand my thoughts." Shi Guanlin stood up with an apologetic smile, trying to grab Mu Yanluo's shoulder.
But Mu Yanluo stepped back once more, staring at Shi Guanlin as if he were a stranger. "Brother Lin, perhaps coming to you today was a mistake. I thought you were someone sincere and genuine, but now it seems I was wrong. You just pretend I was never here tonight!"
With those words, Mu Yanluo turned to leave.
"Hey? Sister Luo! Don't leave, stay!" Seeing this, Shi Guanlin hurriedly chased after, unwilling to let this chance slip away.
Just then, the sound of a sports car rang out from outside. The latest model of a McLaren 720S pulled up to the entrance, and a figure angrily jumped out, striding into the residence!
"Dad, you have to avenge me! I was humiliated outside... huh? Aunt Luo, you're here too?" Shi Lang burst in loudly, catching sight of Mu Yanluo, and paused momentarily.
Mu Yanluo remained expressionless. Now devoid of any favorable impression towards Shi Guanlin, she naturally held Shi Lang in disregard too.
Hmm?
Shi Lang sharply noticed the change in Mu Yanluo's attitude, but in his current state of anger, he had no time to care about that. He continued shouting at Shi Guanlin, "Shi Guanlin, your son was bullied outside, are you going to do something about it? How will you avenge me?"
"What are you yelling about? Who bullied you?" Shi Guanlin asked irritably, holding back his anger.
"A guy named Jiang Feng from South City!"
Mu Yanluo, who had already stepped outside, paused upon hearing this and turned back to look at Shi Lang.
Shi Guanlin naturally noticed this detail too, immediately putting on a righteous front: "What did you say? Jiang Feng?"
"That's right! That bastard! I recently took a liking to a girl, and tonight I went to confess to her, but that son of a bitch ruined it, grabbing my neck and throwing me out. I've never been humiliated like this in my life!" Shi Lang recalled the scene, still trembling with rage!
"Didn't you tell him your name? Doesn't he know who you are?" Shi Guanlin squinted, his face darkening as he asked.
"Not only did I mention myself, I even brought up your name! But that Jiang guy said you, Shi Guanlin, are nothing to him, that even if you stood in front of him, he'd crush you underfoot like a bug!" Shi Lang, hoping his father would stand up for him, exaggerated Jiang Feng's insults even more.
"What did you say??!!"
Shi Guanlin, upon hearing this, burst into furious anger: "That little bastard is too arrogant!"
Immediately, Shi Guanlin called out to the distant Mu Yanluo: "Sister Luo, rest assured, I'll handle this matter, starting now, that Jiang fellow is also my enemy, and I won't let it go!"
Mu Yanluo snorted coldly, no longer easily trusting Shi Guanlin, and continued to walk away.
"Sister Luo..." Shi Guanlin called out, wanting to stop her, but Mu Yanluo didn't even look back, leaving him quite embarrassed.
"Dad, what's going on with you and Aunt Luo?" Shi Lang asked, confused, looking back and forth between his father and Mu Yanluo.
"It's nothing! Your Aunt Luo came to me earlier because of that Jiang Feng, asking me to deal with him. I was hesitant, but now I've got one more reason!"
After Shi Guanlin finished his lofty speech, he turned to Shi Lang: "Come in and tell me the details of what happened tonight!"
As Shi Lang, still seething with rage, walked into the house, Shi Guanlin unwillingly glanced in the direction Mu Yanluo's car had gone, still persistent in his own mind: "Cheap woman, a fallen phoenix is worse than a chicken, and she wants to act superior in front of me? Sooner or later, I'll make her kneel down and submit!"
...
South City, Yijing Garden community.
Late at night, in a certain house, the lights were still on, echoing with hysterical shouting!
"Mom, look at this, here, and here!!"
Inside, Nangong Yan stormed home, immediately launching into a tirade, crying to her parents and pointing at her neck to show Nangong Jinming and Zhao Chunhua the grievances and humiliation she suffered at Jiang Feng's hands.
On her neck, there were indeed visible bruises and swelling, clearly left by Jiang Feng. At that time, Jiang Feng hadn't planned to hold back, and if Nangong Qingcheng hadn't brought up Old Man, she might indeed have ended up in the emergency room.
"Unbelievable, that Jiang son-in-law has become lawless?" Zhao Chunhua, distressed over her daughter, flared up with anger: "He used to only talk back to family, but now he dares to lay a hand, look how capable he thinks he is!"
Nangong Jinming sat nearby, smoking, his face somber and cold.
They had never expected Jiang Feng to return alive, and now that he was back, he was even more brazen, which was hard to accept!
Before, Jiang Feng had relied on his good relationship with the Chu Family, backed by Chu Renxiong and Zhu Ge Yuheng, and being "smug" might have been acceptable. But now, with Chu Renxiong gone, what was he still so arrogant about?
The more Nangong Jinming thought about it, the more indignant he became, wishing he could grab Jiang Feng by the neck to demand an apology for his daughter and the whole family!
"Jinming, you're still in the mood to smoke? Our family's been trampled on, and you're not angry? Your daughter was choked like this, aren't you concerned? You're just sitting there?" Zhao Chunhua fanned the flames, not wanting to let things lie!
"Daughter, let's go! Mom will go find him with you! I don't believe it, he'll try to choke me too. Otherwise, I won't hesitate to tear his face off!" Zhao Chunhua said with fierce determination, about to take her daughter Nangong Yan out the door.
"Enough! Calm down!!!" Nangong Jinming, unable to endure any longer, stood up: "What would going to the hospital now accomplish? Letting others laugh at our family? Besides, Old Man is already asleep, waking him up in a panic could have serious consequences, can you handle that?!"
"You just yell at me, then what do you suggest we do?" Zhao Chunhua shouted in anger!
"Wait until tomorrow morning! Tomorrow morning I'll take you both!" Nangong Jinming coldly added: "I refuse to believe I can't handle a mere Jiang! Moreover, we need to bring not just our family, get Jinwei and Xiao Li, and even my brother and his wife, to come. If Jiang doesn't apologize to me and Yanyan in front of everyone, I won't let it go!!"
Nangong Yan and Zhao Chunhua exchanged a glance at these words, reluctantly choosing to hold back for the moment.
Since Nangong Jinming wanted to escalate things, they were more than happy to fan the flames!
