Chapter 358: Northern Xie Family - Xie Anfeng

Chapter 358: Chapter 358: Northern Xie Family - Xie Anfeng

He could clearly feel that his body was significantly weaker than before, and if he did not find all of the Golden Bone soon, there would be big troubles ahead, with the grudge from the Mo Family alone being enough to cause him endless headaches.

However, this was not something that could be rushed; it all depended on fate.

Xiao Zheng drained the glass of wine, swallowing even the ice cubes, and in a moment, he felt invigorated, his eyes regaining their clarity.

He casually scanned the entire bar with a sidelong glance.

Suddenly, his gaze fixed on something with a sense of bewilderment.

"Hmm, isn’t that Mo Anna? What is she doing here? And she’s surrounded by a group of men, it seems like she’s being harassed."

He couldn’t just stand by; he had to go and check.

Xiao Zheng stood up and walked towards Mo Anna with steady steps, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

He was now like a leaf that remained unsoiled amid a sea of flowers.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to get involved; he dared not to. If he became entangled in karmic relations, and couldn’t disentangle himself later, he really wouldn’t be able to stop.

If he were in good health, it would be another matter, but his life was fleeting, and he had no fortune to enjoy the grace of a beauty.

From a distance.

He saw a handsome man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, about thirty years old, with a cool-looking face, sporting a slicked-back hairstyle, shiny leather shoes, and a spotless suit, who occasionally revealed a self-assured gleam in his eyes.

At the moment, he was tugging and arguing with Mo Anna about something.

Mo Anna’s expression was also changing unpredictably, showing slight helplessness and conflict, as though she was struggling with something.

As he approached, he could finally hear their argument clearly.

"Anna, come back with me. The wedding is near, and if we don’t leave now, it will be too late," the man said.

"Hmph, Xie Anfeng, this arranged marriage is nothing but a wishful thinking of the Xie Family, it never had my consent. I won’t go back. Let go," Mo Anna retorted.

Xiao Zheng leaned against a nearby pillar, his eyes slightly narrowed. So this man’s name was Xie Anfeng.

He frowned and continued to listen.

"Anna, after all these years, do you still not understand my feelings? For you, I even changed my name, from Xie Feng to Xie Anfeng, all for the purpose of us being together forever," he professed.

"Ah, why bother? I’ve always regarded you as my older brother. Aren’t you satisfied with that?" she sighed.

"No, as the Young Master Xie, if I can’t even handle my own fiancée, how can I face anyone? Where is the dignity of the Xie Family in the north?" he proclaimed.

"That’s your own affair, it has nothing to do with me. Besides, haven’t you had countless beloved women over the years? You’ve even fathered a bastard with one of them. With your taste, any of those women must be as good as me, if not better," she argued.

"You!" he exclaimed.

Xiao Zheng could clearly sense that Xie Anfeng was running out of patience.

Indeed, Xie Anfeng’s eyes were clouded with anger, a hint of cruelty flashing through them.

Laozi is the Young Master Xie, born with a silver spoon in my mouth, master of wind and rain, able to beckon women at will, summoning and dismissing them with ease.

In this world, there is no woman I can’t have, no girl I can’t handle, with one exception.

That is Mo Anna!

At this moment, his eagerness was evident. The more unattainable she was, the more it ignited his desire to possess her. This bitch, I will make her wail tenderly and beg for mercy.

With that thought, Xie Anfeng let out a menacing smile, grabbed Mo Anna’s delicate arm, locked eyes with her, and said coldly, "Sister Anna, you really won’t go back?"

"What are you doing? Let go! I have already formed an inseparable destiny with Zhonghai, and I will not leave," Mo Anna said with indignant shyness, brushing away his impertinent hand and speaking through clenched teeth.

"Past ties? Haha, which man has broken your devoted heart?" Xie Anfeng’s eyes flashed with a cold glint as he questioned aggressively, his gaze intense.

"This...there’s no such thing, and it’s none of your business, I’ve made up my mind; I won’t go back, so you can give up that notion."

In an instant, Mo Anna thought of Xiao Zheng’s voice and laughter, his manners and speech, a flicker of panic passed through her eyes, but then she defended herself with resolved determination.

Over these years, she had already been delayed by Xie Anfeng for far too long, and she couldn’t drag it on anymore.

Indecisiveness only invites further confusion.

My youth is mine to control? Haha, at this moment, youth is no more, beauty is fading away, and since I know who I like and love, I should boldly pursue it.

Instead of accepting a predetermined marriage arrangement.

"You!"

Xie Anfeng’s brows twitched wildly, unable to contain his anger, he swung his hand without hesitation, aiming for Mo Anna’s face, fast as lightning.

However, the expected sound of a slap never came, and Xie Anfeng was taken aback.

"Hm?"

Turning his head, what entered his sight was Xiao Zheng’s smile, as soothing as a spring breeze, and somewhat playful.

"Friend, that’s not very nice."

Xie Anfeng frowned, a look of dissatisfaction flickered in his eyes as he roared angrily.

"Who the hell do you think you are, meddling in Laozi’s family affairs?"

Xie Anfeng struggled to pull his arm back, but it wouldn’t budge, as if it were trapped in a vise.

Xiao Zheng let out a cold laugh and suddenly released his grip, causing Xie Anfeng to stagger and nearly fall.

"Friend, a man’s hand should be used to care for a woman, not hit her."

"Who the hell are you? You think you can meddle in Laozi’s affairs?"

Enraged, Xie Anfeng pointed at Xiao Zheng’s nose, his threat boomed loudly and angrily.

He secretly sized up Xiao Zheng, who dressed casually. Aside from being somewhat handsome, he seemed completely useless, just a poor nobody.

I, the Young Master Xie from the formidable Northern Xie Family, afraid of some insignificant man? What a joke.

Xiao Zheng paid no attention to Xie Anfeng and instead sat next to Mo Anna, who had clearly had quite a bit to drink, her face pale yet flushed, adding to her charm.

"Sister Mo, are you okay?"

"Uh... Xiao Zheng, don’t cause trouble, this is my own matter, you should leave quickly."

At this moment, Mo Anna’s expression turned exceptionally cold; she knew that in front of Xie Anfeng, she couldn’t show any affection towards Xiao Zheng.

Because the Xie Family’s influence in the north was massive, and even though Xiao Zheng was shrouded in mystery and powerful, he absolutely shouldn’t clash head-on with such forces; that would undoubtedly be seeking his own death.

The strength of the Xie Family in the north made even a powerful faction like the Mo Family step aside; there was no comparison in terms of weight.

Listening to her words.

Xiao Zheng knitted his brows, surprised that Mo Anna had this side to her, usually flamboyant and enchanting, but now cold as frost.

She must have been threatened, definitely.

The Xie Family? Haha, what’s there to fear? Laozi has already offended the Mo Family, would I be afraid of the Xie Family? What a joke.

The more debts, the less worry, the more lice, the less itch, what’s there to fear?

Thinking this, Xiao Zheng stood up, his eyes coldly surveyed Xie Anfeng, and he said without expression, "I suggest you leave quickly before I get angry; otherwise, you’ll bear the consequences."
