Yang Fei chuckled and patted the man with the hawkish nose on the face.

"Go back and tell anyone in your family that Su Yinxue is my friend."

"No one is to coerce her into doing anything she doesn't want to do."

The man with the hawkish nose stared dazedly at Yang Fei, looking at his army green military uniform.

He rasped, "Who are you?"

Yang Fei smiled again, slowly turned around, and said coldly, "My name is Yang Fei, remember it."

"I'm afraid if I see you again and go too far, I might kill you."

Arrogant, domineering, mad!

The man with the hawkish nose had always thought he was crazy and arrogant enough.

But at this moment, he truly realized.

What it meant to disdain everything, what sheer arrogance and madness were!

Strangely enough, Yang Fei's outrageousness didn't repulse anyone.

It only made the man with the hawkish nose feel fear.

There was no helping it, this guy was just too powerful.

Anyone with his skills could afford to be arrogant.

Yang Fei turned and walked away.

The man with the hawkish nose watched his receding figure and heaved a sigh of relief.

He could no longer hold it in his pants, as a warm liquid began to flow out.

The man had actually been scared to the point of wetting himself.

Over ten minutes later, before the police arrived,

the man with the hawkish nose and his group had all staggered to their feet, helping each other into their cars.

The luxurious motorcade slowly drove away.

And the onlooking crowd scattered as well.

Yang Fei was somewhat surprised that they didn't involve the police.

He had been ready to be invited by Feng Cai'er to the police station for a chat.

Su Yinxue's face had been pale, her body shaky.

Clearly, she was on the verge of mental collapse.

Yang Fei sighed.

He asked Lin Xueyi and Zhang Lifang to comfort Su Yinxue.

Women communicate much easier with each other.

Half an hour later, Lin Xueyi came down from the second floor.

Her face was full of indignation.

Yang Fei, playing with a game of beautiful women matching, looked at Lin Xueyi's furious expression.

He chuckled, "Good afternoon, Sister Xueyi, how is President Su doing?"

Lin Xueyi picked up a glass of water from the counter and downed it in one go.

"I'm so angry, ah, Yinxue is really a pitiful girl."

Yang Fei looked astonished and pointed at the glass in Lin Xueyi's hand.

"Sister Xueyi, that was my water."

Lin Xueyi glared at him discontentedly.

"What's wrong with your water that I can't drink?"

"One of these days, I'll make you drink my water!"

Yang Fei immediately grinned cheekily, looking at Lin Xueyi.

"Sister Xueyi, your water? Do you have a lot of it?"

"Oh my, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Lin Xueyi, catching the innuendo in Yang Fei's words, was taken aback and then her face flushed with embarrassment.

"I meant, if you want to drink water someday, you can drink mine..."

"No, no, that's all messed up."

Yang Fei's laughter almost caused his cheeks to cramp.

Xueyi couldn't help but twist his ear in a huff.

"Let you laugh, let you laugh, don't laugh, it's all your fault."

With such a commotion, the tense atmosphere caused by Su Yinxue dissipated considerably.

It turned out the man with the hawkish nose was named Xu Youjiang.

His official status was the fiancé of Su Yinxue.

Su Yinxue's family, although having transitioned into modern civilized society, still clung to old practices.

Marriages for the family's offspring had to be arranged by the family's Council of Elders.

These marital relations, aligning with family interests, were nearly always political marriages between powerful parties.

There were some exceptionally favored daughters who could be exceptions.

But that required the parents to make a formal request to the Council of Elders.

And to make appropriate concessions in the distribution of shares in the family business in order to be an exception.

Su Yinxue certainly didn't belong to the latter type of girl.

Her father had even almost forgotten that he had such a daughter.

How could he sacrifice his own interests for Su Yinxue?

Therefore, before Su Yinxue went abroad to study,

she was promised by the family elders to a scion of another business tycoon.

This person was none other than the hawk-nosed man, Xu Youjiang.

Xu Youjiang was a typical scion of a big business family, full of vices and arrogant.

He was conceited, slick, outwardly strong but inwardly weak, and yet lascivious as life itself.

Ever since he saw Su Yinxue at a family social dance,

he was soul shattered, never forgetting her.

Although Su Yinxue, due to her background, was discriminated against and bullied in the family,

her increasingly evident managerial talent and business genius,

had already won the appreciation and favor of the old family head.

Such a person, within the family, was growing at an astonishing rate.

To any potential successor, she was a tremendous threat.

If they couldn't get rid of her, marrying her off openly and honorably,

was also an excellent strategy.

So, under the concerted manipulation of various forces within the family,

and the persistent pursuit of Xu Youjiang,

Su Yinxue involuntarily got engaged to him.

And this time, when Su Yinxue returned to the country, Xu Youjiang immediately couldn't wait to marry her.

On the eve of the wedding, out of desperation, Su Yinxue secretly ran away to Yannan.

She planned to break free from the family's control and start a new life.

Su Yinxue knew all too well

the power of her own family and that of the Xu family in the business world.

She simply couldn't resist the two powerful families.

And Su Yinxue also knew that by running away from the marriage this time, she had completely offended the Xu family.

The Xu family's face had been wholly lost on the day the bride fled.

To such a prestigious family, what mattered most was face and honor.

And Su Yinxue's action was something no major family could tolerate.

Therefore, this time Su Yinxue set out, she made up her mind.

She no longer wished to go back and be subject to the whims of fate.

Unfortunately, as Yalan International gradually rose to prominence,

Xu Youjiang, the rabid dog, found Su Yinxue again.

Lin Xueyi was a kind and chivalrous woman.

As she told Su Yinxue's story, her eyes reddened.

"Damn brat, President Su is a major shareholder of our Lanting Group, she loaned you money and invested a hundred million in shares."

"I don't care how you do it, brother, but you have to protect her, don't let anyone bully her, it's just too pitiful," she said while wiping away her tears.

Yang Fei sighed deeply.

Lin Xueyi didn't understand how formidable these business tycoons were.

Yang Fei knew it all too well.

Once a family possessed an astonishing wealth,

the extent of its influence was no longer confined to business.

The family's tendrils would have surely spread to all sectors of society.

Such a family, normally inconspicuous,

but once angered, would certainly stir up a terrifying storm.

On the other hand, the Three Swords, although defeated, had not become less threatening but more dangerous.

The Three Swords had now harbored a killing intent towards Yang Fei.

This wounded animal was even more dangerous.

And the Golden Buddha, far away in the provincial city, was also lying in wait.

This intangible deterrence and pressure made it even more unbearable.

A burden of thousands of pounds weighed on Yang Fei's shoulders.

How could Lin Xueyi possibly understand this?

Nevertheless, Lin Xueyi wasn't wrong.

What matters in a lifetime are the two words "loyalty and righteousness."

How could Yang Fei abandon Su Yinxue?
