Chapter 239: Chapter 239 Destroying A Marriage

Translator: Doggotranslation 

From Long Yifan’s attitude towards Mo Fei and the way they called each other, it could be seen that Mo Yizhi was also a pivotal figure in Bei Tian City. He probably had as much influence as Long Xiaotian. Therefore, naturally, Long Yifan would not want to offend Mo Fei, the future Fengcheng owner because of a butler. However, it still surprised many people that he would use such a harsh method to fire the butler. After all, it was someone related to their family.

“Sigh… Cronyism is something that I have always opposed, but sometimes, I just couldn’t bring myself to do it. I have long wanted to get rid of this uneducated snob. However, because he could always use his glib tongue to persuade my second younger sister-in-law to defend him, I didn’t have any chance. Although he offended Mr. Chu and Mo’er today, it finally gave me an opportunity to fire him. But still, it was all because I was being too soft-hearted that this kind of incident would happen today. I am truly sorry.”

Too soft-hearted? Firing the man using such a harsh method, and he even had the audacity to say that he was too soft-hearted? With this clever explanation, the unpleasant nature and atmosphere of the scene just now were immediately changed. It even made people think that he was a kind person. From this, it could be seen that this Long Yifan was very clever.

Mo Fei felt also she shouldn’t dwell on this matter, so she simply smiled faintly and said, “Big Brother Long, we are not unreasonable people, and you did not do anything wrong, so you shouldn’t apologize to us. In fact, we need to thank you, because you helped us to punish the man.”

In the field of business, they would meet each other very often, so it would not be good for everyone if their business relationship turned sour. The smart Mo Fei stopped at the appropriate time, and at the same time, she also saved Long Yifan’s face.

“As long as Mo’er is not angry with me.” Long Yifan said, “It’s inconvenient to talk here. Would you like to follow me into the manor? My younger sisters always want to meet you.”

“Big Brother Long, I. . . want to have some fresh air here for a while. . .” Mo Fei said intermittently. After glancing at me secretly and noticing that I was also looking at her, she suddenly stopped and her face flushed red.

“Oh…” Long Yifan suddenly realized something. He drawled his voice and said with a smile, “I understand, I understand.”

‘You understand my ass!’ I felt very annoyed. Why would Mo Fei deliberately do something that would create misunderstanding? !

“The open-air dance party will begin soon. I have invited some well-known singers and stars to do a live performance. If anyone is interested, you can head to the front of the manor. Haha…” Long Yifan dispersed the crowd while laughing. Then he said to the young gardener and the old woman with a stern face, “What happened earlier was just a misunderstanding. For the sake of Miss Mo, I will not pursue this matter. Now go back and carry on doing the things that you should do. Today is a happy day, so don’t ruin guests’ mood.”

The old woman was probably accustomed to being ordered around, or maybe in her heart, she just wasn’t used to making her own decision. After hearing what Long Yifan said, she immediately nodded her head and quickly left the place with Ku’er, as if talking to us would ruin the so-called guests’ mood. . .

Liu Xiaosheng glared at me with hatred and jealousy. He, who still could not accept the fact that I was Mo Fei’s boyfriend, had completely forgotten his elegant demeanor and took out his anger on someone else, “Xingyu, get over here and go dance with Peiwen. . .”

“I don’t want to dance with him!” Liu Xingyu said, “Elder Brother, can’t you leave me alone? I have Guo Xiang and Elder Brother Nan accompany me.”

After hearing this, I couldn’t help but think to myself how dumb this girl was. It was exactly because she was with us that her elder brother didn’t want to leave her alone. But she didn’t realize it. . .

Seeing that his future ‘brother-in-law’ finally stood up for him, Zhang Peiwen immediately approached Liu Xiaosheng with Zhang Mingjie and formed a united front, but when he saw Xingyu hiding behind Mo Fei and me, they dared not say a single word.

On the one hand, the young masters from the Zhang family wanted to ask him for an explanation. On the other hand, he felt humiliated after being defeated by his love rival in public. Not to mention that the sympathy or mocking look in the eyes of those onlookers made him even more furious.

Hearing that Xingyu actually talked back, he immediately snapped at her, “Nonsense! You are the future daughter-in-law of the Zhang family. . .”

“I am the daughter-in-law of the Guo family!” Liu Xingyu’s attitude suddenly became strong. At the moment, she looked a lot like Xiao Yike. Both of them were very straightforward, persistent, and… not giving other people any face. . .

“I like Guo Xiang. Elder Brother, you know it clearly!”

“I know?” No matter how thick-skinned Liu Xiaosheng was, he still felt that Liu Xingyu’s response had made him lose his face in front of the two brothers of the Zhang family, “What do I know? I only know that you are Pei Wen’s fiance!”

Seeing Xingyu’s tears, Guo Xiang finally showed the decisiveness and bravery he had in the business world, “Young Master Liu, I really love Xingyu. I don’t want you to support our relationship, but as her elder brother, I think you should at least respect her…”

“You shut up!” Lao Guo, who had been acting timidly for the whole night, finally showed his courage and determination, but he was abruptly interrupted by Liu Xiaosheng. “This my family’s business! I don’t need you, an outsider to tell me what to do!”

Mo Fei, who was about to stand up for Xingyu, couldn’t help but turn red in anger. Although Liu Xiaosheng wasn’t talking about her, she still felt a little bit angry. As a result, she who was still hugging me pinched my arm unreasonably, causing my lips to twitch in pain.

I was speechless. Liu Xiaosheng clearly said that it was his family’s business. Did she think that I would be able to change his mind?

Long Yifan’s behavior was very interesting. He didn’t seem to want to be a peacemaker. For him, the more the Zhang family and the Liu family lost their faces, the greater his psychological advantage would be when facing them in the future. This guy was very cunning.

Seeing that her lover became dispirited, Xingyu hurriedly said to Liu Xiaosheng, “I also don’t need you to tell me what to do!”

“You dare to talk to me like this? I am your elder brother!”

Xingyu felt both angry and aggrieved, her eyes teared up, “Then why can’t you act like an elder brother! You are not even one-tenth as good as Elder Brother Nan. Do you even care about me? You just use me as a political tool to win over the Zhang family! Do you think I don’t know that it was you who persuaded dad to agree to this marriage? But I won’t agree to it! Even if you kill me, I still won’t agree to it!”

The Liu family wanted to draw the Zhang family to their side. Mo Fei naturally wouldn’t pretend that she had not heard it. In the world of business, Liu Corporate Group was one of Fengchang’s major competitors, and Zhang Li and Zhang Mingjie were the senior executives of Fengchang. Moreover, Zhang Li was the biggest obstacle to her inheriting Fengchang. Mo Fei, of course, knew what was at stake. She tightened her grip on my hand, and her eyes became very serious.

“I’m not as good as him? !” Liu Xiaosheng, who had always paid attention to his elegant demeanor, may have really been provoked by this remark, he glared at me angrily. Those words sounded like he was asking Liu Xingyu, but at the same time, it also sounded like he was asking Mo Fei as well.

Although I was a shameless person, after seeing the almost identical positive expressions of the two women, I blushed a little.

Not one-tenth as good as me. Alas, maybe if he worked a little bit harder, he could be half as good as me. . . In the presence of Xingyu, I felt embarrassed to say those words to Young Master Liu.

“Mr. Chu, you are so scheming,” There seemed to be a layer of black mist behind Liu Xiaosheng, and he said in deep resentment, “Miss Mo, Shu Tong, now you even want to take my younger sister away from me. What have I done to you that you have to cause this much trouble for me?”

Feeling embarrassed, Mo Fei angrily said, “Liu Xiaosheng, watch what you said. I am not yours, what do you mean by he took me away from you?”

“Yes, Young Master Liu, you can eat anything, but you can’t make anything up. Ms. Shu and I are just friends. What do you mean that I took her away from you? ! Besides, I have a little sister as well, why do I need to take your little sister away from you?” I almost broke out in a cold sweat.

Damn this guy. What did he think I was? A kidnapper? How could he just accuse me of some random shit? . . He even said that I took Shu Tong away from him? What did he even mean by that? Was he out of his mind?

Seeing that Mo Fei was angry, Liu Xiaosheng finally realized his gaffe. He took a deep breath and calmed down a lot. He quickly changed his face and smiled at Mo Fei, “I’m sorry, Miss Mo. I used the wrong word. A fair lady is a gentleman’s desire. It was indeed a heavy blow to me that my sincere feeling didn’t have an outcome. So I said something that I shouldn’t have said. I hope you won’t keep it in mind.”

Liu Xiaosheng actually expressed his admiration for Mo Fei in public, and frankly admitted that he could not accept the blow of seeing that she already had a boyfriend? Not only me, but also Long Yifan could not help but feel surprised.

Those who were frank would always get people’s understanding and sympathy easily. With just one sentence, Liu Xiaosheng reduced everyone’s aversion to his gaffe. It was really clever!

It was a pity that Mo Fei would not be easily fooled by him. She simply snorted coldly.

Liu Xiaosheng’s mouth twitched, but he didn’t say anything to her again. He sighed helplessly and said to Liu Xingyu in a soft tone, “Sister, if you think that you are still the daughter of the Zhang family, then just listen to me. Don’t make it difficult for Second Young Master Zhang.”

Hearing what Liu Xiaosheng said, both young masters of the Zhang family revealed an unpleasant expression. Even if Zhang Peiwen was not very smart, he could still tell how cunning Liu Xiaosheng’s words were. In this way, it would sound like he didn’t want to give his younger sister a hard time, but because of the pressure from the marriage arrangement, he also had no choice. From those words, it would only portrait the Zhang family as bad guys.

Of course, I knew that the real reason why Zhang Xiaosheng said this was that he didn’t know how to make Xingyu listen to him. Since that was the case, he decided to pretend to be a magnanimous guy and also used this opportunity to indirectly tell Mo Fei that he had no intention of working with the Zhang family. But the Zhang family was trying their best to curry favor with the Liu family.

Thinking of this, I couldn’t help but sigh at how cunning this person was.

Although Liu Xiaosheng’s tone had softened, Liu Xingyu still didn’t seem to want to listen to him. Seeing that she still wanted to talk back, I hurriedly said before her, “Young Master Liu. I don’t think Second Young Master Zhang will mind it, because he is also a person who is dissatisfied with this marriage arrangement.”

“Oh?” Long Yifan had been staying silent since the beginning, but the moment I spoke, he suddenly talked as well, “How did Mr. Chu know that Peiwen was dissatisfied with this marriage?”

Damn this guy! He definitely wanted to make both the Zhang family and the Liu family hate me.

Mo Fei also pinched the back of my hand to warn me that Long Yifan’s words had hidden intentions. It was also very understandable. After all, this marriage would strengthen both family’s relationships. If the marriage fell apart because of me, of course, both families would hate me.

However, I was not scared. I was just an ordinary man. What could they possibly do to me? So I smiled lightly, “Of course I know. In fact, Second Young Master Zhang has a girlfriend already, and the girl he likes is. . . Haha, it’s a different type from Younger Sister Xingyu. However, because of this hateful marriage arrangement and his family, he has to succumb to fate. How do you think he will be happy? I think Second Young Master Zhang is the one who is most eager to end this marriage. Am I right, Second Young Master Zhang?”

Xingyu was taken aback, a little confused; Zhang Peiwen was taken aback, a little scared. . .

One of these two people took my words seriously, and the other regarded my words as a threat. But they only understood the surface meaning of my words. Compared with this, Mo Fei and Guo Xiang could hear something deeper. . .
