Chapter 61: You think you’re worthy to chase her?

Chapter 61: Chapter 61: You think you’re worthy to chase her?

Huo Sinan and Lei Ting heard the voice and turned around at the same time to see Pei Liyan and Fang Mo standing behind them.

With a face as handsome as an immortal’s, he looked down on them with a contemptuous gaze.

Huo Sinan still had a cigarette between his lips, took a deep breath, half-squinted his eyes and exhaled a cloud of white smoke.

The smoke formed rings as it floated upwards, and his face flickered uncertainly behind them.

Pei Liyan kept his sharp gaze on him, unblinking.

"How come you’re everywhere, like a bad penny?" Huo Sinan hadn’t expected to encounter Pei Liyan while having a meal and smoking in the smoking area.

By the looks of it, Pei Liyan must have been out for a smoke as well.

Tension flared up almost instantly between the two men.

Pei Liyan sneered, "You think you’re worthy of chasing Ruirui?"

Huo Sinan reacted as if he had been stung by a hornet and shouted back, "Why am I not worthy?"

"Carrying a child around, you’re like someone with a burden. Do you think it’s appropriate to chase after a young lady as fresh and fair as Ruirui?" Pei Liyan asked coldly in return.

Huo Sinan inhaled sharply, "Pei Liyan, I’ve truly put up with you for far too long."

Saying this, Huo Sinan prepared to take off his suit jacket, ready to have a big fight with Pei Liyan.

Lei Ting was startled; though not fearing a fight, he found it too impulsive for two grown men to resort to blows.

Lei Ting looked at Huo Sinan.

Huo Sinan could no longer hold back, stripped off his jacket, and flung it to Lei Ting.

Lei Ting had no choice but to catch it.

Pei Liyan just slightly curled his lip in disdain. "Fighting me, you’re likely not a match."

"Whether I am a match or not, we’ll have to fight to find out." As Huo Sinan spoke, he lunged forward.

Fang Mo shouted, "President!"

He stepped in front of Pei Liyan.

"Coward," Huo Sinan cursed.

Pei Liyan’s eyes narrowed, pupils flaring with twin flames, and he commanded sternly, "Fang Mo, move."

Fang Mo still tried to intervene, but Pei Liyan grew impatient.

He grasped Fang Mo’s shoulder and pulled him aside, then stood in the forefront, facing Huo Sinan.

Pei Liyan didn’t waste another word, raised his right foot, and kicked towards Huo Sinan with speed that carried a chill of deadly intent, like a gust of wind aimed at Huo Sinan’s chest.

Huo Sinan evaded with a slight move, dodging the kick.

But the next moment, Pei Liyan feinted with his second foot and swung his fist – a punch struck Huo Sinan’s chin.

The move was a swift deception.

Instantly, Huo Sinan’s chin turned a shade of dark bruise.

Huo Sinan’s expression darkened as he cursed, "Shameless!"

Pei Liyan swept his cold gaze over him, the malice in his eyes enough to send Huo Sinan to meet his maker.

Lei Ting, feeling the situation slipping out of control, turned to find Qiao Rui.

But before he could take two steps, Fang Mo blocked his path, speaking indifferently, "You can’t go anywhere. Wait until President Huo is finished taking his beating."

Lei Ting instantly cursed, "Damn it, aren’t you guys going too far?"

Before he could finish speaking, Fang Mo struck Lei Ting, flipping him onto the ground.

Lei Ting hit the ground, seeing stars.

Unable to help himself, he yelled out, "Ruirui, Song Muyu!"

Huo Sinan cursed, "Don’t call them."

Now with his face showing his injury, if Qiao Rui saw him looking so pitiful, he would have no dignity left.

Qiao Rui’s hearing was exceptional, and she heard the shout.

Qiao Rui immediately stood up and said to Song Muyu, "Keep an eye on the child."

Without another word, she walked outside.

Song Muyu had heard as well and naturally instructed the nanny, "Nanny, take good care of Little Xingxing and don’t bring the child out no matter what happens. Do you hear me?"

Seeing the situation, the nanny also knew it was trouble and quickly nodded her head.

After Qiao Rui ran out, she headed straight for the smoking area.

In the long corridor, from a distance, she saw four men at the end; Pei Liyan delivered a fierce flying kick, pressing his foot on Huo Sinan’s shoulder.

That kick made Huo Sinan almost lose his balance, nearly falling to the ground.

Huo Sinan cursed, "Damn it, Pei Liyan, you’re quite the fighter, but I’m not scared."

"Stubborn," Pei Liyan retorted with another airborne kick, flipping Huo Sinan onto the ground.

The move was both suave and cool, ferocious enough to leave one unable to react.

Qiao Rui was stunned by the sight.

Pei Liyan’s martial arts were indeed impressive.

She quickly ran over.

Lei Ting stood up too, just about to get into a scuffle with Fang Mo, but then he saw Qiao Rui and immediately yelled, "Miss Rui, please persuade them, they’re fighting over you."

Qiao Rui was taken aback, "Over me?"

Song Muyu also ran over and saw Huo Sinan beaten black and blue, while Pei Liyan was unscathed; she couldn’t help but see Pei Liyan in a new light.

Indeed, the strong are always more attractive.

Huo Sinan’s face, bruised as it was.

She also looked at Huo Sinan with sympathy.

Seeing the beauty had come out, Huo Sinan felt unable to preserve his face, and, driven by a mix of anger and embarrassment, shouted at Pei Liyan, "I’m going to go all out against you."

"Mr. Huo!" Qiao Rui called out sternly, "Stop it."

However, Huo Sinan was seeing red.

He didn’t hear a word of Qiao Rui’s plea and kept charging at Pei Liyan.

Naturally, Pei Liyan didn’t hold back either.

A solid kick from Pei Liyan sent Huo Sinan flying before he even got close, tumbling out once again.

It was an extremely embarrassing sight.

Qiao Rui didn’t have the chance to help him.

She sighed wordlessly and looked at Pei Liyan.

She saw the man glance over at her indifferently, showing no particular emotion.

Qiao Rui walked to Huo Sinan’s side and reached out to help him up.

Being thrown out, Huo Sinan was now in pain all over, seeing stars, and had never been beaten up like this before.

He hadn’t expected Pei Liyan to be so formidable; even as an athletic champion, he didn’t stand a chance.

It was utterly humiliating.

Huo Sinan was too embarrassed to even look at Qiao Rui.

As Qiao Rui helped him, seeing his head hanging down, she thought, this man still knows shame.

Indeed, for someone as proud as Huo Sinan, being beaten so soundly, losing all face and dignity, was unbearable for anyone.

Pei Liyan was indeed ruthless, not leaving even a shred of dignity for Huo Sinan.

She suddenly felt sympathy for Huo Sinan; she helped him up, and said gently, "Stand up, there’s no shame in losing a fight."

Huo Sinan was startled, lifting his eyes to look at Qiao Rui, and as he met her soft and tender gaze, he felt burned by it and quickly looked away.

Pei Liyan, with half-closed eyes, locked onto Qiao Rui’s features. He saw the tenderness in the girl’s voice as she spoke to Huo Sinan, her gentleness like flowing water.

Then, she turned her eyes toward Pei Liyan.

Qiao Rui stated calmly, "Mr. Pei, I wonder if the words we exchanged earlier still hold?"
