Invincible Young Master in the City
Chapter 694 - 694 690 The Situation May Not Be Optimistic

694: Chapter 690 The Situation May Not Be Optimistic 694: Chapter 690 The Situation May Not Be Optimistic Mo Xiaoyan drove back to Mo Family Manor.

The Mo family did not live in an ordinary villa community but occupied a hillside at the southeastern edge of the city, enclosed by high walls and iron gates, where dozens of villas of varying sizes were built.

To the ordinary passerby, it might appear merely as an upscale villa community with extensive grounds, but the elite of Chongqing knew that this hill was dominated by the Mo family.

Like a primordial beast perched there, they overlooked the entire city, commanding the greater southwestern region.

Mo Xiaoyan drove smoothly back to her family’s residence, got out of the car, and went inside to look for her father, Mo Xuaming.

Upon entering the foyer, she immediately saw five people seated in host and guest positions on the living room sofas.

Mo Xuaming, Shangguan Jingxue, and three others—a prominent middle-aged couple and a handsome young man nearing his thirties.

She knew the young man; his name was Dongfang Bufan, one of the three candidates chosen by the old Mr.

Mo for an arranged marriage.

Dongfang Bufan, twenty-nine, was tall and exuded an extraordinary presence, clearly well-educated in aristocratic manners.

He was also a master of ancient martial arts, in the late stages of the Mingjing, and a rising star in the martial arts world.

The Dongfang family, rooted in Xiangsha City, the provincial capital of Hunan, held considerable influence locally.

Although not as powerful as the Mo family, they were not far behind.

The middle-aged couple were, of course, Dongfang Bufan’s parents.

Mo Xuaming and his wife were having a lively conversation with Dongfang Bufan’s parents, with Dongfang Bufan respectfully accompanying them, occasionally answering questions posed by Mo Xuaming and his wife.

Mo Xiaoyan strode into the living room.

Dongfang Bufan was the first to turn his head, and seeing it was Mo Xiaoyan, he stood up politely and greeted her with a smile, “Miss Mo.”

As Dongfang Bufan stood, Mo Xuaming, his wife, and Dongfang Bufan’s parents turned their heads to look.

Although Mo Xiaoyan did not like Dongfang Bufan, she still smiled politely in response, then greeted Dongfang’s parents before gracefully taking a seat next to Shangguan Jingxue.

“Where have you been so early?

You didn’t even come home for lunch,” Shangguan Jingxue asked Mo Xiaoyan.

“I was meeting a friend.

Where is my sister?” asked Mo Xiaoyan.

“She’s resting in her room upstairs,” replied Shangguan Jingxue.

“Oh,” Mo Xiaoyan acknowledged, sitting quietly for a while before getting up and heading upstairs.

Reaching the second floor, Mo Xiaoyan approached Lu Xiaoman’s room, knocked on the door, and called out, “Sis, I’m back.”

The door opened quickly, and Lu Xiaoman’s first question was, “Where’s Ye Fan?”

“Hee hee, let’s go inside and talk,” laughed Mo Xiaoyan as she entered.

Inside the room, after closing the door, Lu Xiaoman took Mo Xiaoyan’s hand, looking concerned, and asked, “Did you pick up Ye Fan?”

“Mm, I did,” replied Mo Xiaoyan.

“He said he would officially visit our house at eight tonight.”

Lu Xiaoman nodded, released Mo Xiaoyan’s hand, her expression somewhat gloomy.

She walked over to the window, looked outside, and said, “I didn’t expect things to turn out this way.

It’s putting him in a difficult position.”

Hearing this, Mo Xiaoyan felt a surge of anger and wanted to curse Ye Fan severely, but considering Lu Xiaoman’s current mood, she held back.

“Sis, don’t worry.

He’s pretty clever, he won’t be wronged!” Mo Xiaoyan said.

“He’s already called in the big cavalry.”

“Did he bring his family too?” asked Lu Xiaoman, turning around, her eyebrows knit with worry.

From the moment she decided to be Ye Fan’s secret lover, she seriously considered the severe consequences should their relationship be exposed.

Mo Xiaoyan shook her head and said, “I actually hoped he would bring his parents, but unfortunately, he only invited his third senior brother.”

“Third senior brother?” Lu Xiaoman was quite surprised; she did not know Shen Biancheng.

Mo Xiaoyan nodded and said, “That’s right.

His third senior brother is called Qinglong Hand Shen Biancheng, who has a great reputation in the ancient martial arts world and is currently one of the top masters active there.

With Shen Biancheng accompanying him, grandpa should agree to sit down and talk with Ye Fan.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaoman, knowing that Ye Fan planned to come forward with his identity from the ancient martial arts world, breathed a sigh of relief.

After waiting for over an hour upstairs, Mo Xiaoyan finally saw her parents send Dongfang Bufan and others away.

After seeing Dongfang Bufan and others off, Mr.

and Mrs.

Mo Xuaming went to the second floor, preparing to persuade Lu Xiaoman further.

However, before they could speak, Mo Xiaoyan preempted, “Dad, Mom, Ye Fan is in Chongqing.”

“What’s he doing here?” Shangguan Jingxue said displeasedly, “Considering him, he probably doesn’t even qualify to meet grandpa.”

She was very pleased with Dongfang Bufan just now and thought he was the son-in-law for her.

Mo Xiaoyan ignored her mom and continued to her dad, “Besides him, there’s also his third senior brother, Qinglong Hand Shen Biancheng.”

“Qinglong Hand Shen Biancheng?” Mo Xuaming and Shangguan Jingxue both exclaimed in shock.

“That’s right.” Seeing her parents’ surprised faces, Mo Xiaoyan felt a surge of satisfaction, thinking: Look down on my brother-in-law, shocked, aren’t you?

Mo Xuaming came to his senses, nodded, and said, “No wonder.

When I first met Ye Fan, I could tell he was extraordinary.

Despite his young age, he was already a master of dark energy; it turns out he’s Shen Biancheng’s junior brother.”

“Where is Shen Biancheng?” he then asked.

Mo Xiaoyan, suppressing her pride, calmly responded, “Ye Fan said that tonight at eight o’clock, he and his third senior brother will visit grandpa and you on time.”

“Mmm.” Mo Xuaming nodded, “I’ll go talk to the old man right now.”

With that, he turned and went downstairs.

Deep down, he opposed forcing his daughter into marriage.

Since Ye Fan had brought such significant support, he was pleased to see it succeed.

“What?

Qinglong Hand Shen Biancheng?!” In an antique-decorated living room, the old Mr.

Mo’s voice suddenly rose.

Mo Xuaming affirmed with a nod, “That’s right.

Actually, Lu Xiaoman’s boyfriend Ye Fan is a very outstanding young man, two years younger than Lu Xiaoman, but already a dark energy master with a promising future.

It’s not surprising that he’s Qinglong Hand Shen Biancheng’s junior brother.”

He finally had the opportunity to introduce Ye Fan’s situation.

Old Mr.

Mo pondered for a moment.

Mo Xuaming then said, “Dad, as Shen Biancheng is a top master in the ancient martial arts world, shouldn’t we receive him grandly?”

“Indeed, we should take Shen Biancheng’s visit seriously,” Old Mr.

Mo said slowly, pondering, “However, it’s not up to Shen Biancheng to decide who the Mo family’s daughter marries!”

This alliance was of great significance to the Mo family; whether it was the Dongfang family from Xiangsha City, the Wei family from Diankun City in Southern Yunnan Province, or the Han family from Xian’an City in Shaanxi-Qin Province, all were the targets the Mo family wanted to win over.

Lu Xiaoman was Mo Xuaming’s daughter, and her marital status carried enough weight.

Old Mr.

Mo felt no attachment or pity in sacrificing Lu Xiaoman’s lifelong happiness.

After all, the three candidates he designated were all outstanding youths of the current generation; what was there to feel sorry about?
