Invincible Young Master in the City
Chapter 676 - 676 672 Decisions

676: Chapter 672: Decisions 676: Chapter 672: Decisions “Ye Fan, there are some matters for which the time has not yet come, and I temporarily can’t tell you everything,” Zhuo Junwu’s voice, weighing his words, came from the phone, “But rest assured, I will call your Aunt Qing Lian and warn her.

You should also avoid provoking her.”

“Okay,” Ye Fan responded reluctantly.

Zhuo Junwu continued, “Can you come back a few days before New Year?

I plan to teach you the ‘Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound.'”

Hearing the words “Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound,” Ye Fan couldn’t help but get excited.

Although he knew he would eventually learn the “Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound,” the highest form of Xingyi Boxing, how could he not feel a ripple of emotion?

However, considering his work arrangements for Spring Festival, he could only sadly say, “Master, I’m sorry.

I still can’t come home for New Year this year.

But don’t worry, right after the Spring Festival, I’ll definitely return to the Forty-Nine City before the Lantern Festival to pay you a New Year visit.”

“Alright,” Zhuo Junwu said, a bit disappointed.

After hanging up, Ye Fan drove to the Huayang Martial Arts Gym.

This weekend, Lu Xiaoman would be returning to Chongqing to acknowledge her ancestors, and according to Mo Xiaoyan, it might be a while before they could meet again.

Entering the Huayang Martial Arts Gym, Ye Fan was first dragged by Mo Xiaoyan into a private training room, where she closed and locked the door.

“What’s the matter?” Ye Fan asked helplessly.

Mo Xiaoyan walked up close to Ye Fan, her eyes fixed on his, and demanded, “Stinky brother-in-law, are you really not accompanying my sister to Chongqing?”

“I really can’t leave,” Ye Fan said with a wry smile.

Even if he could leave work during the Spring Festival, he couldn’t accompany Lu Xiaoman to Chongqing; he had to accompany Li Zhaojun home for the New Year.

Mo Xiaoyan hummed displeasedly and spat, “You better think it through.

My sister is going to Chongqing to acknowledge her ancestors.

Afterwards, she’ll be known as the first Miss Mo of the direct lineage, and when that happens, as you know, countless handsome and talented men will pursue her.

Hmph, I might end up being someone else’s aunt-in-law.

Then you can cry about it!”

“Heh, I trust Xiaoman is not that kind of person,” Ye Fan replied nonchalantly.

“Don’t be too confident,” Mo Xiaoyan arrogantly cocked her head, “Given my sister’s looks, personality, and background, it’s not necessarily true that she’s hooked on you alone.

Once her horizons broaden and she has more choices, it’s not guaranteed you’ll be the best or the most suitable.

Besides, some things aren’t up to my sister herself.

Being the first Miss Mo of the direct lineage isn’t just about enjoying privileges without responsibilities.”

Ye Fan gave a faint smile and said, “Okay.

I’ve listened to what you said.

I’m going to find your sister now.”

With that, he turned and walked towards the door.

Mo Xiaoyan immediately chased after him, opening her arms to block his way.

Because she almost clung onto him, Ye Fan accidentally bumped into her soft chest and had to take a step back immediately.

Mo Xiaoyan seemed unconcerned and exclaimed, “With all I’ve said, aren’t you a bit anxious?

Don’t you understand at all?

The last time I went to Chongqing, it wasn’t just for fun.

My grandfather is very keen on arranging a family marriage for my sister!

The observation ceremony for my sister’s ancestral acknowledgment has already touched base with quite a few families.

Do you think what I said yesterday was just a bunch of lies?”

Ye Fan stopped in his tracks, furrowing his brows.

“Is this really true?”

“What do you think?” Mo Xiaoyan spoke, “My parents are blood-related to my sister and feel guilty over the years, so of course, they treat her well.

But it’s different with my grandfather; he has hardly ever met my sister.

He wouldn’t press me, but now that my sister appears, she’s naturally the best substitute.

My grandfather has a lot of authority in our family and doesn’t tolerate disobedience!”

Hearing this, Ye Fan fell into deep thought.

If he hadn’t married Li Zhaojun, with his talents, character, and background, as well as his relationship with Lu Xiaoman, he could have straightforwardly asked the Mo family for her hand in marriage, and they would almost certainly have agreed.

But now, he couldn’t ask the Mo family directly, or even appear in person.

The Mo family was a prominent family from the southwest, and though not as influential as the Ye family, they were still well-regarded nationally.

How could they openly assign their primary granddaughter to him, a man who would be her clandestine, unacknowledged partner?

Seeing Ye Fan’s silence, Mo Xiaoyan said, “Feeling the pressure now?

You must accompany my sister to Chongqing this time, establish your relationship with her as her boyfriend, reveal your true identity, and demonstrate your ancient martial arts skills to win over my grandfather.

As for your excuse of being unable to leave work, that’s nonsense—what’s more important than your wife almost slipping away from you?”

“Thank you for the reminder,” Ye Fan stated seriously.

“I’m going to talk to your sister about this now.”

As Ye Fan tried to bypass Mo Xiaoyan to continue to the door, she cried, “Wait!

Just a verbal thank you?”

“How about I take you shopping this afternoon?

You can buy whatever and however much you want, and I’ll foot the bill,” Ye Fan offered.

“Pfft, who cares.

I’m not without money,” Mo Xiaoyan scoffed disdainfully.

“So, what do you want?” asked Ye Fan.

“Kiss me,” Mo Xiaoyan said triumphantly.

Ye Fan gave a wry smile.

“Stop joking.”

But the next moment, Mo Xiaoyan suddenly stepped forward, looped her arms around Ye Fan’s neck, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed his mouth.

Because it wasn’t the first time, Ye Fan half-responded to Mo Xiaoyan’s kiss.

After a few minutes, Mo Xiaoyan stopped kissing Ye Fan but still held on to his neck, nearly face-to-face with him, and said, “I didn’t want to tell you all this at first; it would have been fine if my sister married some other man, then I could be openly with you.

But since my sister and I are twins, our empathy is too strong, it’s easy to confuse her feelings with mine; I can’t just watch her fall into a pit of fire.

So, I had to speak up.”

Ye Fan didn’t know what to say.

Mo Xiaoyan continued, “But this is also good, you still remain the lousy brother-in-law of just me, Mo Xiaoyan!

Hee hee…”

Minutes later, Ye Fan walked out of the private training room and headed to the office.

When Lu Xiaoman saw Ye Fan coming in, she greeted him with a gentle smile and said, “Ye Fan, you’re here.”

As she said this, she put down her work, stepped out from behind her desk, and sat down with Ye Fan on a sofa in front of a coffee table.

Looking at Lu Xiaoman’s face, displaying a tender and happy smile, along with her affectionate gaze toward him, Ye Fan felt even more determined not to lose Lu Xiaoman.

The most direct and effective way to prevent Old Master Mo from forcing Lu Xiaoman to marry someone else was to make Lu Xiaoman not go to Chongqing to acknowledge her ancestors.

However, he truly didn’t have the courage to bring it up.

He couldn’t offer Lu Xiaoman a proper status, and she would always have to remain hidden—could he also stop her from acknowledging her ancestors, severing her familial bonds?

Could he really let Lu Xiaoman give up her rightful identity as the primary granddaughter of the Mo family, abandoning the honor and prosperity that were rightfully hers?

He couldn’t do it.
