Chapter 6: I've been waiting for you for so long!

  Leng Long seemed to be waiting for Leng Xi's return at the Xuan Guan on purpose, so that he could hand over some things to her in advance.

  He pulled Leng Xi, as if intentionally saying it for the people in the house to hear. He had just finished speaking with a playful smile, and immediately sank his face. He leaned into Leng Xi's ear, seriously and softly instructing, "Xi'er, wait a minute, no matter what, you must be calm, listen carefully and behave yourself. Don't make any mistakes with me. Did you hear?" Leng Long's words were even more severe than a low growl.

  Leng Xi's pupils contracted. His heart tightened. Why was Father being so serious? What had happened?

  "Haha, Xiao Xi, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go in, your fiancé is waiting for you inside." After saying that, Leng Long chuckled and pulled Leng Xi along as they walked inside. His tone was warm and gentle, just like a kind father.

  Leng Xi's eyebrows furrowed deeply, and when she saw the person sitting in the hall, her eyes widened even more. Her heart leapt to her throat, and a sense of horror suddenly enveloped her, making her scalp tingle.

  He

  How did he end up here?

  "Haha, Xi'er, you're back! I've been waiting for you for a long time." Seeing Leng Xi standing at the entrance with a wooden expression, Xie Fei got up from his seat with a big smile on his face and walked over to greet her. As he spoke, thick saliva was flying out of his lips, making people feel nauseous and get goosebumps all over their body.

  Leng Xi was terrified. Instinctively, he took a step back. "Don't come over..."

  Leng Xi's evasive reaction made Xie Fei's smiling face pause for a moment.

  Leng Long saw the situation and hastily pushed Leng Xi towards Xie Fei's side, laughing and saying: "Hehe... Xi'er is just too tired from working all day, her spirit is a bit dazed. Mr. Xie, don't take it to heart." After speaking, he sternly looked at Leng Xi and said: "Xi'er, what are you doing? Mr. Xie is our guest, how can you be so unreasonable? What did Father usually teach you?" He secretly gave Leng Xi a look, forcing her to cooperate.

  "Not a guest, from now on we're family." Xie Fei said with a silly smile, explaining.

  "Yes, yes, yes. Look at my memory. Today Xi'er is marrying you. From now on, we are one family. What's with the guest's words?" Leng Long patted his forehead and immediately put on a smile to echo Xie Fei's words.

  Leng Xi's heart skipped a beat. She was suddenly struck by an unprecedented sense of fear, leaving her at a loss for what to do. The thing she had been afraid of had indeed happened.

  Marry him and become part of his family.

  Dad, this is being arbitrary. Marrying her off to Xie Fei, a man she doesn't love and even fears.

  How can Dad be like this to her?

  In his eyes, like a serene stream and a secluded spring, ripples of water floated. He looked at Cold Dragon in disbelief. Those eyes were filled with pain.

  Why is she always sincere and kind to her family, while they repeatedly treat her this way, driving her to desperation?

  "Brook, I've missed you for so long. I'm dying to see you." Xie Fei's mouth watered at the corners as he approached Lin Creek, about to take her hand.

  "Don't touch me." Leng Xi was frightened and her breathing became uneven. She reflexively withdrew her hand, not wanting to let Xie Fei touch her.

  Xie Fei's outstretched hand fell empty. His expression froze, and his eyes, with a hint of blood, stared at Leng Long with accusation and menace.

  The dragon was terrified and his face was twisted in anxiety.

  "Slap."

  "You're a cheap woman. Master Xie marrying you is already looking up to you. With the kind of dirty woman you are, who else would be willing to marry you besides Master Xie? Don't be ungrateful and don't give yourself airs."

  Just as Leng Long was anxiously thinking of a plan, a crisp slapping sound suddenly rang out.

  They lifted their heads in unison, only to see Leng Ni's angry face. She raised her head and glared at Leng Xi fiercely, her harsh words almost squeezed out from between her teeth. With an air of superiority, she lectured Leng Xi.

  Lenny seems very angry. Very urgent. Her chest is also fluctuating unevenly.

  Leng Xi, this woman actually dares to resist Xie Fei like this. Does she want to refuse the marriage? It's impossible.

  Leng Xi must be given to Xie Fei. If she doesn't marry Xie Fei, then Father will have to marry her off to such a loser. She loves Ling Han. Leng Ni is destined to marry Ling Han.

  A searing pain spread from his face to his brain, making Leng Qi's head spin with agony. He could hardly tell east from west.

  She covered her battered face, but felt numbly that her whole body was in pain.

  Leng Ni said something. Xie Fei married her or owed her a favor.

  So why didn't Leng Ni marry Xie Fei herself?

  She lifted her tear-stained face and looked at him resentfully. "What right do you have to interfere with my marriage?"

  What. She actually dared to look at her with such a resentful gaze.

  Leng Ni's anger suddenly surged up to her chest. In a fit of rage, she raised her hand again, with an air of superiority, ready to teach Leng Xi a lesson and let her know whether she was qualified or not.

  Another crisp and clear slap echoed loudly.

  Everyone present was stunned, including Xie Fei and Leng Long.

  Including Ronnie herself, she covered her fiery face. Her eyes were full of indignation and unbelief, staring at Leng Xi. "You... you dare to hit me." She was furious and ready to pounce on Leng Xi, but was caught by Xie Fei beside her. "What do you want to do? She's my bride-to-be. Do you want to scratch her face?" Xie Fei's hoarse voice shouted.

  "Yes, that's right. Xi'er is indeed Xie Gongzi's bride. A bride should be beautiful and elegant. Leng Ni, what are you doing? Hurry up and go back to your room. What nonsense are you meddling in?" Cold Dragon glared at Leng Ni and growled.

  Leng Ni's face sank as she took a deep breath. She glared fiercely at Leng Xi before storming off to her own room in indignation.

  Megan, who was watching with bated breath beside her, saw her daughter leave in a huff and quickly followed to accompany her. In her eyes, whether Qingxi lived or died had nothing to do with her. As long as her daughter was safe and sound, she was satisfied.

  "Hehe, Xi'er, don't mind Leng Ni, she's just a spoiled missy who doesn't understand things. Hurry up and get made up, I'll wait for you here." Xie Fei put away his fierce expression from earlier and instead smiled lecherously at Leng Xi, the eyes that were bloodshot revealing an impatient desire.

  Just bring back the cold creek to home. He must indulge in revelry for several days and nights. Severely inserting into her body. Severely thrusting. Severely... Thinking about this woman's charming appearance under him, he can't help but drool. Just thinking about it makes him feel addicted.

  Spent 200 million. In exchange for this woman's lifetime. Worth it. Very worth it.

  Xie Fei thought with great pleasure and satisfaction. He even licked his thick lips with the tip of his tongue, savoring the delight.

  Leng Xi shuddered. A pair of eyes like a dark spring stared at Xie Fei, revealing a fierce light like a wild cat. "You can't call me Creek. Take back your things. My marriage is my own decision. I don't agree to marry you." Leng Xi pointed at the large pile of betrothal gifts in the center of the hall and said firmly.

  She had no right to choose her birth. So she has the right to decide her own life's major events. No one else should think of interfering with her life.

  Ling Han once told her: This world has no one who will draw a outline for you. People must learn to protect themselves.

  He told her to work hard and live a good life.

  No matter what, she has to live a good life. For Ling Han's sake, she also has to live a good life. Can't let him see a pitiful worm. Can't lose face in front of him.

  She is an employee of Lingyun Group. As an employee under Ling Han's leadership, she should live with dignity and backbone.

  "You..." Leng Long was about to get angry and scold Leng Xi, but Xie Fei stopped him. He still had that flattering smile on his face as he said, "Hehe... this marriage is too sudden. It's understandable that Xi'er can't accept it for the time being. Don't blame her, don't blame her. Leng Long, you shouldn't get angry either. Just guide her well."

  Xie Fei's face was calm and smiling, but in reality, that pair of fierce eyes kept staring at Leng Long, threatening him. His words were also full of reminders and warnings.

  Speaking in a respectful tone, yet saying outrageous things. Since he has decided to take Cold Creek, he should be called Dad or Father-in-law. But instead, he directly calls out Cold Dragon's name, and does so with such a matter-of-fact attitude.

  It can be seen that he is rich and arrogant, with a domineering and ugly attitude.

  Seeing it with her own eyes, hearing it in her heart, all she got was ridicule. Spending a lifetime with someone like that would make her life not worth living.

  But Leng Long didn't think there was anything wrong with the etiquette. He nodded and bowed, responding, "Yes, yes, yes. Thank you, young master, for pointing that out. As a father, I should indeed teach her well."

  "Alright, it's settled then. I'll give you a day to gather your thoughts. I'll come pick you up tomorrow." Xie Fei said with a hint of a triumphant smile playing on the corner of his mouth.

  He said, this woman, he must have her, no matter what means, no matter what cost.

  As Xie Fei walked past Leng Xi, his eyes with bloodshot gaze at Leng Xi blinked, as if charming her. The thick corners of his lips also hooked up, releasing a smile towards Leng Xi.

  Leng Xi's whole body felt numb. A wave of nausea surged up her head, making her feel like vomiting.

  This man is really disgusting.

  Xie Fei didn't mind her reaction to him either. He only knew what he wanted, and he would get it no matter what. If he couldn't have it, he'd rather destroy it.

  Yin Qin sent off Xie Fei. Leng Long's face sank. With a resentful expression, he said, "Xi Er, come here." Leng Long walked towards the study while loudly calling out.

  Leng Xi bit her lip, swallowing back the grievances and tears. Even so, it couldn't conceal the sparkling water-like glint in her ancient well-like dark eyes, like the numerous stars in the night sky, ethereal and clear.

  She put her hands together in front of her body and nodded along.

  "Kneel down for me." Leng Long stood in the study, seeing Leng Xi enter. He shouted loudly, his voice powerful and shocking. It seemed that Leng Long was really angry this time.

  Leng Xi was startled and shrunk back. His legs sprang out from under him. "Plop" - he fell to his knees on the ground.

  "Speak! What have you done wrong?" Cold Dragon wielded a whip, striking it down and lashing it at Leng Xi's body, interrogating him.

  Leng Xi winced and shuddered. She bit her lip, holding back tears, took a deep breath and said firmly, "I... I didn't do anything wrong."

  "Whoosh." Another lash came down heavily. The skin split and the flesh burst open.

  "Smelly girl, you still dare say you're not wrong? In front of your grandmother's face! Quickly admit your mistake." Cold Dragon said hatefully.

  Leng Xi's whole body trembled with pain. She bit her lip hard, staring at the portrait of her grandmother in front of her. Her grandmother's smile was still as kind and gentle as ever. Leng Xi's voice trembled as she spoke, "I... I... I didn't... didn't do anything wrong."
