Magnolia Pavilion, just by its name, one can imagine the quiet and cozy atmosphere of this resting place…
Lan Yue’s appearance did draw quite a few glances, fortunately the girl dressed rather conservatively, otherwise who knows how many men would be fantasizing about her tonight instead of looking at their plain, old wives.
However, before the two could even sit down, they spotted someone they’d rather not see—Gong Hao, who had previously been fawning over Lan Yue.
Beside Gong Hao, Xiao Yufan suddenly felt a cold gaze. That stare carried both mockery and disdain. Seeing this person, Xiao Yufan’s eyebrows slightly lifted.
“Aren’t you the anonymous good Samaritan? What a coincidence, meeting you here again!”
Gong Hao said sarcastically, a sinister smile curling his lips. Xiao Yufan had openly humiliated him in front of so many people—it was a slap in the face he couldn’t possibly swallow.
“You idiot, this isn’t your house. What I do has nothing to do with you. Don’t talk to me, or I can’t promise what might happen!”
Xiao Yufan had absolutely no interest in this person, and by extension, held the Gong family in low regard. A family capable of raising such a spoiled brat probably wasn’t worth much.
“How dare you insult me!” Gong Hao was visibly getting angry. This guy was humiliating him again in front of so many people—he was about to lose his temper.
“Shouldn’t I insult you? If you don’t want to make a bigger fool of yourself, feel free to try something. I won’t mind making your next few days spent in bed!”
Xiao Yufan naturally gave no quarter to such an idiot. Not seeking him out was already being generous enough. The fact that this guy kept showing up on his own doorstep was practically asking for it. If it weren’t for the public setting, he would’ve already taken action.
The Magnolia Pavilion, just by hearing its name, one can imagine the tranquility and warmth of this resting place…
The appearance of Blue Moon attracted quite a few glances. Fortunately, the girl was dressed conservatively, otherwise, who knows how many men would have indulged in fantasies about their wives tonight.
However, before the two could sit down, they saw someone they didn’t want to see—Gong Hao, who had been hovering around Blue Moon earlier…
Beside Gong Hao, Xiao Yufan suddenly felt a cold gaze, filled with a mix of amusement and disdain. Seeing this person, Xiao Yufan’s eyebrow twitched slightly.
“Isn’t this our anonymous do-gooder? What a coincidence to meet you here!” Gong Hao said with a hint of mockery, a sinister smile on his lips. Xiao Yufan had publicly humiliated him, and he couldn’t swallow this insult.
“Idiot, this place isn’t your home. Where I am has nothing to do with you. Don’t talk to me, or I don’t know what might happen!”
Xiao Yufan had no patience for this person, and by extension, he felt disdain for the so-called Gong family. If they could raise such a spoiled brat, the family couldn’t be much better.
“You dare insult me!” Gong Hao was on the verge of losing his temper. Being humiliated in front of so many people again, he was about to explode.
“Wouldn’t it be a shame not to insult you? If you don’t want to embarrass yourself further, go ahead and try something. I wouldn’t mind making you spend the next few days in bed!”
For such an idiot, Xiao Yufan naturally wouldn’t show any mercy. He hadn’t sought trouble with this guy, but if he kept coming back for more, Xiao Yufan wouldn’t hesitate to act, especially if it weren’t for the public setting.
“You…” Gong Hao’s face turned pale with anger. He wanted to beat this guy up, but he knew his own strength. He was still a step away from being an internal force expert, and he posed no threat to Xiao Yufan, who was at the Qi Condensation level.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Situ Xuan beside him, hoping this man would step in. But to his disappointment, although Situ Xuan’s eyes held a cold killing intent, there was no sign of him taking action.
“Still not leaving?” Xiao Yufan didn’t want to escalate the situation too much, especially since Blue Moon was still at Tsinghua University. If this guy caused trouble, it might threaten his woman.
Of course, under the protection of the Dark Gate, even if Gong Hao wanted to act, he would have to pay a price. But Xiao Yufan absolutely didn’t want his woman to suffer any harm…
“Brother, isn’t your tone a bit too harsh?”
Before Gong Hao could speak, another man stepped forward. Looking at Blue Moon’s serene and elegant demeanor, a lecherous glint flashed in his eyes. Although he was the student council president at Tsinghua University, he had never encountered such a beauty.
“Oh? And who are you?”
“I’m the student council president of Tsinghua University…”
“Is that so? I have no interest in you, so whether I’m harsh or not has nothing to do with you!”
Xiao Yufan was deliberately making this man look bad. Blue Moon, who had been quietly laughing, suddenly burst into a giggle, giving Xiao Yufan a playful glance, completely ignoring the others present.
“It seems you’re not from Tsinghua University, are you?”
The self-important man frowned, his lips twitching. At Tsinghua University, everyone knew of Hu Bin’s existence. This guy was blatantly ignoring him. He couldn’t touch Blue Moon, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t touch Xiao Yufan.
As if he hadn’t heard the question, Xiao Yufan turned his head in another direction. Dealing with such a self-important person was a headache!
“Stop acting so arrogant! I’ve had enough of you, brothers, let’s take him down!”
Behind Hu Bin, a few guys who had been annoyed by Xiao Yufan’s arrogance were finally fed up. At Tsinghua University, they could walk around with swagger, but now they were being treated like nobodies.
“If you don’t want to die, don’t make a move. Otherwise, you might not see tomorrow’s sun!”
Situ Xuan, who had been silent all along, finally spoke. He had been quietly observing Xiao Yufan, and this man hadn’t disappointed him—he was indeed bold…
Hearing this, the guys’ heads all shrank back. Damn, was this a joke? It felt like they were playing with their lives. No matter how tough they were, this was making them nervous, especially with the cold aura emanating from Situ Xuan.
Clearly, Xiao Yufan had also sensed this aura. A smile played on his lips, but his heart was churning. He could feel that this man’s strength was even greater than his own.
“Situ Xuan!”
“Xiao Yufan!”
The two men almost simultaneously spoke their names. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became very strange. Both men had strong auras, subtly making everyone present feel that such men were truly exceptional.
“I’m quite interested in you!”
Xiao Yufan nodded with a smile. If it weren’t for Blue Moon’s presence, everyone might have thought his preferences were questionable. But this was truly what Xiao Yufan felt. The Situ family—how could he not be interested?
“My interest in you is greater than yours in me. I know you must be very puzzled now, but you’ll soon understand the reason. We’re not enemies, but we won’t be friends either. I will surpass you!”
Situ Xuan’s eyes held a cold glint, but his words left Xiao Yufan puzzled. Xiao Yufan could sense the killing intent in this man…
If someone’s eyes held killing intent and they said we weren’t enemies, would Xiao Yufan believe it? Naturally, the answer was no. So, he had already listed Situ Xuan as a dangerous person.
However, Situ Xuan still hadn’t cleared Xiao Yufan’s doubts. It seemed there were many things about the Situ family that he wasn’t aware of, but this man seemed to know them well. Could it be that his grandfather had been hiding something from him?
“Not everyone has the right to be arrogant. At least, I don’t think you have that qualification yet…”
No matter who this man was, Xiao Yufan’s confidence wouldn’t waver. He knew that if he showed even a hint of weakness, this man would think he was easy to bully, and that was the last thing he wanted.
“Soon, you won’t be saying these words!”
With no expression on his face, Situ Xuan turned and walked towards the private room. In his first encounter with Xiao Yufan, he hadn’t gained any advantage, which only fueled his competitive spirit…
Thinking this, he glanced at Situ Xuan beside him, hoping the man would intervene, but he was disappointed to find that although Situ Xuan’s eyes held cold, murderous intent, he showed no sign of moving.
“Aren’t you leaving?” Actually, Xiao Yufan didn’t want to escalate things too much, considering Lan Yue was still attending Huaqing University. If this man decided to cause trouble, it might threaten his woman.
Of course, under the Dark Sect’s protection, Gong Hao would pay dearly if he dared to act. But Xiao Yufan absolutely refused to let any harm come to his woman…
“Brother, don’t you think you’re being a bit too harsh?”
Before Gong Hao could speak, another man stepped forward. Seeing Lan Yue’s quiet, elegant demeanor, a lecherous glint flickered in his eyes. Although he was the student council president at Huaqing University, he had never encountered such a beauty before.
“Oh? And you are?”
“I’m the student council president of Huaqing University…”
“Oh, is that so? I have no interest in you, so whether I’m too harsh or not has nothing to do with you!”
Xiao Yufan deliberately embarrassed the man. Lan Yue, who had been smiling shyly, couldn’t help but laugh, giving Xiao Yufan a loving glare and not even glancing at the others present.
“It seems you’re not even a student here at Huaqing!”
The self-important man’s mouth twitched as he frowned. At Huaqing University, everyone knew who Hu Bin was. This guy was openly ignoring him. He might not be able to touch Lan Yue, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t get back at Xiao Yufan.
As if he hadn’t heard the question at all, Xiao Yufan turned his head in another direction. Arguing with such an arrogant fool was simply a headache.
“Who do you think you are? Brothers, get him!”
Behind Hu Bin, several men, already impatient with Xiao Yufan’s arrogance, rushed forward. At Huaqing University, they were used to walking around with impunity, yet now they were being treated like pushovers.
“If you don’t want to die, don’t move. Otherwise, you might not live to see tomorrow!”
Situ Xuan, who had been silent until now, finally spoke. He had been quietly observing Xiao Yufan, and this man had not disappointed him—he was indeed bold…
At these words, the men instinctively recoiled. Were they being toyed with? The threat of murder was real. No matter how tough they thought they were, they felt a chill, especially under Situ Xuan’s icy aura.
Clearly, Xiao Yufan had also sensed this aura. A smile curled his lips, but inside his heart was pounding. He could feel that this man’s strength was even greater than his own.
“Situ Xuan!”
“Xiao Yufan!”
Almost simultaneously, the two men revealed their names. The atmosphere in the room suddenly turned strange. Both men exuded strong auras, making everyone present instinctively feel that these were true sons of heaven.
“I find you quite interesting!”
Xiao Yufan nodded with a smile. If it weren’t for Lan Yue’s presence, people might have misunderstood his preferences. But this was indeed his true thought—how could he not be interested in someone from the Situ family?
“My interest in you is greater than yours in me. I know you’re confused now, but you’ll soon understand. We’re not enemies, but we won’t be friends either. I will surpass you!”
A cold glint flashed in Situ Xuan’s eyes, but his words left Xiao Yufan puzzled. Xiao Yufan could feel the killing intent in the man’s gaze…
If someone’s eyes carry murder yet claims we’re not enemies, would Xiao Yufan believe him? Naturally not. Therefore, he had already marked Situ Xuan as a dangerous person.
Still, Situ Xuan didn’t clear up Xiao Yufan’s confusion. It seemed the Situ family had many secrets he was unaware of, yet this man clearly knew more. Could it be that his grandfather had hidden something from him?
“Not everyone has the right to be arrogant. At least in my opinion, you haven’t earned that right yet…”
Regardless of who this man was, Xiao Yufan’s aura did not waver in the slightest. He knew that if he showed even a hint of weakness, this man would think him easy to bully, which was definitely not what he wanted.
“Soon, you won’t be saying those words anymore!”
Without changing his expression, Situ Xuan turned and walked toward the private room. In their first encounter, he had gained no advantage over Xiao Yufan. This only fueled his competitive spirit even more.
