Chapter 770: Brother-in-law 2

Ling Xuejiu stopped talking at this point; she was willing but powerless. After all, this was the Li Family’s decision and was no longer within her control. However, she was very puzzled about what exactly about Leng Xuan was so unknown that made the Li Family care so much. Li Mengjie felt the same; she stared at Leng Xuan as if to force him to come clean.

Seeing this, Leng Xuan chuckled bitterly, "I’m very sorry, but I really can’t speak about this matter. If you’re interested, you’ll have to ask Uncle Li." After saying this, he turned to Li Jie and said, "Big Brother Li, actually, my relationship with Mengjie hasn’t reached that stage yet, so you don’t need to make a decision so hastily."

"What do you mean by that stage?" Li Jie said displeased, "Leng Xuan, I heard that you’ve already ’that’ my sister. If that’s the case, then you should take responsibility. There’s nothing more to say about this matter."

Upon hearing this, Li Mengjie and Leng Xuan’s faces both flushed red. Leng Xuan cried out that he was wronged, as he hadn’t even touched her once, and at most had accidentally ’taken advantage’ of her a few times, but those were unintentional. As for Li Mengjie, she regretted that she shouldn’t have fabricated that story to make He Bin believe her; now, she had made it so that even she couldn’t step down from the situation.

At this moment, Li Jie had already changed the subject, saying, "Brother-in-law, your martial arts are really impressive. Could you teach me a few moves? I’ve taken masters in the military, but they are simply no match for you; I reckon even if they were combined, they wouldn’t be able to face you alone."

Leng Xuan instantly understood upon seeing the fanaticism in Li Jie’s eyes; this fellow was indeed a martial arts fanatic. No wonder when Cheng Guodong had punched him earlier, he hadn’t held any resentment; he probably had always held a respect for the strong in his heart.

Leng Xuan nodded and said, "Alright, if you want to learn, I can ask Old Cheng to give you some pointers. His martial arts are also quite good; in terms of strength, he ranks first among my bodyguards."

"No problem," Li Jie, having witnessed Cheng Guodong’s prowess, didn’t refuse. However, he curiously asked, "Brother-in-law, where did you find those people? They are so strong, each and every one of them."

Leng Xuan wasn’t planning to hide it, so he smiled and said straightforwardly, "Those men, they used to be what you call super soldiers, serving in the military. But later, they were discharged from their ranks and sent to assist me. Currently, I’m in charge of them."

"No wonder they are so formidable," Li Jie nodded in realization, tactfully avoiding further questions about why those men were assigned there. He was well aware of the military’s rules—what should or shouldn’t be asked. Moreover, issues involving super soldiers were certainly not something he was qualified to know. Even though his father was a military commander, he was only a lieutenant colonel.

Leng Xuan smiled, recalling that although Cheng Guodong and the others were formidable, that was a result of his own guidance and their gradual improvement. Based on their current strength, they were much stronger than when they first arrived. Of course, this was something he would naturally not mention.

At this time, Li Mengjie asked, "Big brother, now that you’re here, when will you go back?" She also realized that any discussion regarding Leng Xuan was pointless at present, and she would just have to explain the situation to her family when she went back for the New Year. Thus, she didn’t pursue the topic further.

Li Jie said with a smile, "I reckon I’ll be staying in Baiyun City for a while; I have some official business to deal with. How long exactly, I haven’t decided yet."
