When Xiao Yufan entered the mansion, he finally understood what true luxury meant. The ancient architecture exuded a faint, elegant charm, and the Dongfang family certainly knew how to indulge…
The high-end sports cars parked along the roadside could have filled an entire luxury car exhibition. No wonder the Dongfang Conglomerate was coveted by so many—it was undeniably wealthy, its interior decor even more extravagant than the Situ family’s.
Of course, the Situ family had always preferred to keep a low profile. Even Xiao Yufan’s father, the current head of the Situ clan, rarely appeared in public. Yet everyone knew that behind this humility lay an immense and terrifying power.
“Call off the two snipers nearby, or I can’t guarantee their safety. I hate being pointed at with guns, and I believe Miss Dongfang is a smart woman…”
After entering the mansion, Xiao Yufan had already sensed a hint of danger. He quickly pinpointed the source of the threat. In response to the Dongfang family’s cautious measures, a faint, cold smile appeared on his lips.
Dongfang Yanran was first taken aback, then wore a look of surprise on her face. Xiao Yufan had been right beside her all along—how could he have noticed the assassins deliberately placed by her father?
“I know more than you imagine. In this entire mansion, there are at least eight assassins, each of considerable skill. As for their exact locations, Miss Dongfang, I’m sure you know better than I do!”
As if sensing Dongfang Yanran’s hesitation, Xiao Yufan lifted his head and smiled, his gaze carrying an indescribable meaning. His words caused Dongfang Yanran’s expression to subtly shift.
“How did you find out all this?”
Dongfang Yanran gave several subtle hand signals in different directions. At that moment, she realized she had underestimated this man from the Situ family. His air of complete control left her feeling powerless.
“If I said I guessed, would you believe me?”
Xiao Yufan replied with a question, clearly unwilling to reveal the truth to Dongfang Yanran. Although he wasn’t sure whether she was an enemy, he was certain she was definitely not a friend.
Dongfang Haoran had already been reduced to a cripple by him, yet this aunt had shown no sign of displeasure. Xiao Yufan couldn’t help but suspect that while she smiled to his face, she probably harbored deadly intentions behind his back.
“It seems my little brother isn’t keen on telling his big sister the truth. But the more secretive you are, the more interested I become in knowing you better!”
Rather than showing any displeasure at Xiao Yufan’s words, Dongfang Yanran laughed softly, leaning slightly toward him. A subtle, seductive glint flickered in her eyes.
“Be my guest, just don’t end up getting yourself in trouble. Although Dongfang Haoran was somewhat of a beast, I wouldn’t mind taking down a beautiful woman either…”
After being teased repeatedly, even a saint would have lost his composure. Let alone Xiao Yufan, who prided himself as a lecher. Facing such a beautiful woman, the fact that he hadn’t made a move already was itself a miracle.
“So you do have thoughts about your big sister. If you’re willing, I’d love to see just how capable you really are…”
Dongfang Yanran replied in a soft, alluring voice that sent a chill down Xiao Yufan’s spine. This woman’s mind really couldn’t be judged by ordinary standards. It seemed that from the very beginning, he had been led around by the nose.
“I’m afraid I don’t have the fortune to indulge…”
Xiao Yufan swallowed hard. His body betrayed him, betraying a strong reaction. This woman was like a reincarnation of Daji—so seductive and enchanting that he could barely suppress the surging desire inside him, wanting nothing more than to make her his plaything.
“Could it be that I’m not as beautiful as your little girlfriend?”
“You’re beautiful. It’s just that we’re not on the same path…”
Unwilling to dwell further on the topic, Xiao Yufan shook his head forcefully, his expression unusually strange. If this woman weren’t so attractive, he would have thought Dongfang Yanran was truly insane.
Continuing forward, Xiao Yufan ignored Dongfang Yanran, who was gritting her teeth in frustration. No matter how beautiful she was, she had nothing to do with him. He had come to cause trouble, not to flirt.
When Xiao Yufan entered the manor, he finally understood what true luxury meant. The ancient architecture exuded a faint, elegant charm, and the Dongfang family certainly knew how to enjoy life…
The high-end sports cars parked along the roadside could easily host a luxury car exhibition. It was no wonder that the Dongfang conglomerate was the envy of everyone—it was indeed extraordinarily wealthy. The interior decorations were even more extravagant than those of the Situ family.
Of course, the Situ family was accustomed to keeping a low profile. Even Xiao Yufan’s father, the current head of the Situ family, rarely made public appearances. Yet, everyone knew the terrifying power that lay behind this modesty.
“Call off the two snipers around here, or I can’t guarantee their lives. I hate being pointed at with guns, and I believe Miss Dongfang is a smart person…”
Upon entering the manor, Xiao Yufan had already sensed a hint of danger and quickly identified its source. He smirked coldly at the Dongfang family’s cautious behavior.
Dongfang Yanran was momentarily stunned, then a look of surprise crossed her face. Xiao Yufan had been by her side the entire time—how had he noticed the assassins her father had deliberately arranged?
“I know more than you think. There are at least eight assassins in this entire manor, each with considerable skill. As for their locations, I believe Miss Dongfang knows better than I do.”
As if sensing Dongfang Yanran’s hesitation, Xiao Yufan looked up and smiled, his eyes carrying an inexplicable meaning. His words caused a slight change in Dongfang Yanran’s expression.
“How did you know about this…”
After making a few gestures in different directions, Dongfang Yanran realized she had underestimated this man from the Situ family. His air of complete control left her feeling somewhat powerless.
“What if I said I guessed? Would you believe me?”
Xiao Yufan countered without any intention of revealing the truth to Dongfang Yanran. Although he wasn’t sure if this woman was an enemy, he knew she was definitely not a friend.
Dongfang Haoran had already been rendered useless by him, yet this aunt showed no signs of dissatisfaction. Xiao Yufan couldn’t help but suspect that behind her smiling facade, she harbored murderous intentions.
“It seems my little brother doesn’t want to be honest with his big sister. But the more you act this way, the more interested I am in getting to know you better.”
Unfazed by Xiao Yufan’s words, Dongfang Yanran let out a soft laugh and leaned closer to him, her eyes glinting with a subtle hint of seduction.
“Suit yourself, just don’t get yourself in trouble. Although Dongfang Haoran was a bit of a beast, I wouldn’t mind taking down a beautiful woman…”
Repeatedly provoked, even a saint would lose patience, let alone Xiao Yufan, who prided himself on being a ladies’ man. It was a miracle he hadn’t made a move on such a stunning woman.
“So, you have such thoughts about your big sister? If you’re willing, I’d like to see just how capable you are…”
Dongfang Yanran responded in a sultry voice that sent shivers down Xiao Yufan’s spine. This woman’s thinking was far from ordinary—it felt like he had been led by the nose from the very beginning.
“I’m afraid I’m not worthy of such indulgence…”
Xiao Yufan’s throat tightened, and his body betrayed him with an undeniable reaction. This woman was like a reincarnation of Daji—seductive and alluring, making it impossible to resist the surging desire to make her his plaything.
“Is your big sister not as beautiful as your little girlfriend?”
“You’re beautiful, but we’re just not on the same path…”
Not wanting to dwell on the topic, Xiao Yufan shook his head vigorously, his expression unusually strange. If it weren’t for her beauty, he might have thought Dongfang Yanran was truly unhinged.
Continuing forward, Xiao Yufan ignored Dongfang Yanran, who was gritting her teeth. No matter how beautiful she was, she had nothing to do with him. He was here to stir trouble, not to flirt.
“A man who could push Haoran to such a state—I’m very interested to see just what kind of person he is. There have been those who dared to flirt with me, but they’re all dead now.”
Her lips curled into a smile, the alluring red lipstick on her lips standing out clearly. This enchanting woman also had a cold, ruthless side, though Xiao Yufan hadn’t seen it yet. However, he had already noticed one thing.
Dongfang Yanran and Tianxuan were cut from the same cloth—their strengths were likely on par. The Dongfang family had such a formidable beauty, which made Xiao Yufan feel a sense of intrigue. Could such a large family rely solely on this woman?
Even if this woman possessed considerable strength, she was only worthy of Xiao Yufan’s attention. Tianxuan couldn’t even gauge his full power, so how could this woman pose any threat to him? He had countless ways to render this seductive beauty powerless in an instant…
As he walked forward, a few minutes later, in the open view, Xiao Yufan spotted an old man and a middle-aged man. If he wasn’t mistaken, the old man was the true decision-maker of the Dongfang family.
“Yanran, why are you so late? Did the people outside neglect you? I’ll deal with them later.”
The two walked over, and the two men who had been playing chess stopped their game. The old man glanced at Dongfang Yanran and spoke directly. Although he was speaking, his gaze kept shifting to Xiao Yufan.
Clearly, the patriarch of the Dongfang family wanted to leave a good impression on Xiao Yufan. Unfortunately, Xiao Yufan’s expression remained unchanged, which displeased the middle-aged man, who let out a heavy, disdainful snort. This young man was far too arrogant.
Xiao Yufan also observed the Dongfang family’s patriarch. In this man, he saw a shadow of his grandfather. Although the old man’s face bore the weariness of a life full of trials, he still exuded an aura of authority.
As for the middle-aged man beside the patriarch, Xiao Yufan felt nothing. From the man’s murderous gaze, he vaguely understood the relationship between him and Dongfang Haoran. It seemed that after beating his son, the father had now stepped forward. But this man had no way of touching him.
Thus, the group stood there, observing each other in silence. Then, at a certain moment, Xiao Yufan’s eyes met those of the Dongfang patriarch…
Her lips curled upward, that seductive red clearly visible. This enchanting woman also had a cold and aloof side—one Xiao Yufan hadn’t noticed yet. But from the start, he had already realized one fact.
Dongfang Yanran and Tian Xuan were of the same caliber, or perhaps their strengths were evenly matched. The Dongfang family had such a formidable beauty, which amused Xiao Yufan. Could such a large family really rely solely on a woman?
Even if she possessed considerable strength, she was merely someone Xiao Yufan would take seriously. Even Tian Xuan couldn’t fully grasp his power, so how could this woman pose any real threat to him? He had countless ways to instantly render this beautiful, seductive woman completely helpless…
Walking forward like this, a few minutes later, within the wide-open view, Xiao Yufan saw an old man and a middle-aged man. If he wasn’t mistaken, the old man was the true decision-maker of the Dongfang family.
“Yanran, why are you so late? Did someone outside treat you poorly? I’ll deal with them after this is over!”
The two walked directly over, and the two engaged in the game finally stopped their actions. The old man glanced at Dongfang Yanran and spoke directly. Although he was speaking, his gaze kept shifting toward Xiao Yufan.
Clearly, the Dongfang family patriarch was trying to leave a good impression on Xiao Yufan. Unfortunately, Xiao Yufan’s expression didn’t change at all, which caused the middle-aged man to feel displeased. A heavy, disdainful snort escaped his nose—this young man was simply too arrogant.
Xiao Yufan was also observing the Dongfang family patriarch. In this man, he saw traces of his grandfather. Although the old man’s face bore the weariness of a life well-lived, he still exuded an aura of natural authority.
As for the middle-aged man beside the old man, Xiao Yufan felt no interest at all. From the murderous glare in the man’s eyes, Xiao Yufan could vaguely tell that he must be Dongfang Haoran’s father. So, he had beaten the son, and now the father had shown up. But this man was clearly powerless to do anything to him.
Thus, the two sides observed each other in silence, none speaking. Then, at a certain moment, Xiao Yufan’s and the Dongfang patriarch’s gazes locked…
