The Beautiful CEO’s Dragon Blood Bodyguard
Chapter 1157: Disliking Someone for Being Tall

Chapter 1157: Chapter 1157: Disliking Someone for Being Tall

The living room was graced with an additional beauty, causing the sunlight inside to become much more dazzling.

Zhang Xuan’er was dressed in a figure-hugging black dress, perfectly showcasing her impeccable physique.

Her long, fair, smooth, and flawless calves were exposed as if they were exquisite pieces of art.

Long Fei, as a master, could no longer frolic with these beauties as he used to.

It truly was a matter of regret.

Long Fei felt sentimental, sipped his tea, and spoke indifferently, "Being able to distinguish these matters is really quite good. You’ve come all this way; what is it for?"

Zhang Xuan’er replied, "Can this matter be laid to rest here?"

Long Fei nodded, "Of course, the Zhang Family is your family. I never intended to hurt your feelings. It’s just that sometimes, some people go too far, and I need to teach them a lesson."

A Daoist must not be insulted; if it were not for Nangong Zheng and his son planting bugs here, Long Fei would never have been so ruthless.

And in the end, it only cost them their lives.

It was their own excessive greed that brought the wrath of the Yin Ghost Sect upon them, and led to the eradication of their entire family.

Zhang Xuan’er breathed a sigh of relief. Given Long Fei’s current status, he could easily have said no or made other demands.

Before her visit, she had been prepared to sacrifice all her shares.

If this was handed over to someone else, it would be a question of whether the Zhang Family would even continue to exist.

You must know, among these cultivators, the experts often eradicate whole families without a second thought.

Not to mention distant examples, take Zhang Hengyu from Shanghai City.

Ever since reaching adulthood, he’s been extremely domineering, and in a short span of time, expanded his Shanghai business across the world.

It’s said that anyone who offends Zhang Hengyu is covertly killed off, with entire families being wiped out.

These acts of the Cultivation World, the Secular World, cannot find any evidence and are completely powerless to intervene.

He has also been named by the Cultivation World as South Profound Senior, a major figure in the South Yangtze Cultivation World.

Long Fei being so forgiving, Zhang Xuan’er’s gratitude was needless to say; she nodded and gave her thanks several times over.

She briefed Long Fei about Zhang Hengyu, then reminded him, "Master, I’ve heard that Zhang Hengyu has a powerful backer, a force not inferior to those mysterious powers from the Secret Realm. If you are targeting him, I’d advise you to be careful. Try not to confront him head-on if possible."

Long Fei came for his family’s Jade Seal and had not yet had any dealings with the Zhang Family.

He asked curiously, "Your Xianggang Zhang Family has no ties with this Zhang Family, right?"

Zhang Xuan’er shook her head, "None, just a coincidence of shared surnames. We had some business dealings in the past and heard some things about the Zhang Family through others. There are lots of rumors in the Cultivation World, saying that the Zhang Family is some sort of Cultivator Family. But this isn’t accurate; the Zhang Family started as a small company and only began to expand its business when Zhang Hengyu came of age. It was then that the Zhang Family began to dominate South Yangtze. Prior to that, there was no mention of them engaging in cultivation."

"So what you’re suggesting is that this Zhang Hengyu suddenly became strong out of the blue? And has no sect affiliation?"

Long Fei was curious.

"That’s right."

Zhang Xuan’er nodded.

Long Fei chuckled, "Now that’s intriguing."

Suddenly becoming strong, much like him, surely implied an extraordinary encounter.

Either he came across some miraculous pill or obtained a revolutionary cultivation technique.

After all, an ordinary person doesn’t just become powerful for no reason.

Liuu Ruyan, driven by curiosity, interjected, "Back in Binhai City, there was a guy named Zhang Hengyuan who kidnapped me, and mysteriously, Brother Long rescued me. This Zhang Hengyuan is Sun Feifei’s boyfriend, said to be from Shanghai City. Does he have any relation to this Zhang Hengyu?"

Zhang Xuan’er said, "It’s actually related, Zhang Hengyu is his own elder brother."

"Ah?"

Liu Ruyan smacked her lips, frowning as she said, "Then it’s all over, isn’t it said that Zhang Hengyuan disappeared out of the blue?"

She looked towards Long Fei; at that time, she herself was unconscious, and didn’t know what happened after, and had never had the chance to confirm with Long Fei.

Long Fei knew that it was Qin Yao who had done it, coincidentally saving Liu Ruyan and refining Zhang Hengyuan into a Life Soul.

He took the blame and said, "Zhang Hengyuan is dead, and you could say it concerns us, it might as well be something I did!"

Zhang Xuan’er knitted her brows and said, "This is bad, the thing I was worried about has still happened."

Long Fei laughed and said, "What are you worried about, how do I usually teach you all?"

Zhang Xuan’er had a gloomy face, thinking when have you ever taught us?

You tricked us into returning to the Yin Yang Sect, and you’ve always been running around outside, when have you ever gone back?

Long Fei shook his head and said, "Look at you, it’s clear you don’t pay attention in class. Cultivators, by nature, are defying the heavens. From the moment one sets foot on this path, one’s life is put aside, battling with fate. On the path of growth, there will inevitably be stumbling blocks. No matter how formidable these stumbling blocks are, you all must learn to press ahead, confronting them with a resolve to prevail. Only then can you step over the talents from all paths, for hiding in a cozy nest, you will never achieve greatness."

Liu Ruyan clapped her hands, thinking to herself that the master is truly the master, even his few words are different.

Even though she didn’t quite understand, they seemed very impressive.

Zhang Xuan’er pondered and nodded in agreement.

Long Fei instructed her, "Alright, now that we’ve talked it out, if there’s no problem, you should go back and continue cultivating! A fortuitous opportunity is about to open up, don’t miss out on your chance."

Zhang Xuan’er felt like vomiting blood; staying at the Daoist temple every day, eating vegetarian meals and chanting scriptures, what kind of opportunity could there be?

If it were up to her, she’d rather go back to the Secret Realm where at least the Spiritual Energy would be more abundant.

She rubbed her hands together and said, "I haven’t eaten yet!"

"Is that so!"

Long Fei slapped his forehead and instructed Liu Ruyan, "Ruyan, fetch two boxes of instant noodles for your sister Xuan’er to eat on the road. There are also some sausages in the cabinet, grab some for her too. Instant noodles with sausages, absolutely essential for home and travel."

Zhang Xuan’er ground her teeth, really wanting to strangle him.

Damn it, trekking all this way to see you, and all I get is a bite of instant noodles?

Liu Ruyan caught on to Zhang Xuan’er’s feelings and suggested with a dry laugh, "Brother Long, Sister Xuan’er has come all this way, why don’t we all go out and have a meal together? I’ve heard that the pan-fried buns and three-filling wontons in Shanghai City are quite delicious, and we didn’t have breakfast yet either!"

She didn’t mind another woman being around Long Fei, after all, this man wasn’t hers, and she wasn’t going to be jealous.

But inside, Long Fei minded!

Having Liu Ruyan already made them enough of a spectacle when going out.

Add to that a height of one meter eighty, wearing high heels, standing taller than Long Fei by a head, they would definitely turn heads when going out.

In response to her suggestion, Long Fei said, "Fine, we can go out to eat, but could you change out of your high heels?"

He really didn’t understand why these tall and well-built girls, already tall enough, always liked wearing high heels.

Those ten-centimeter heels, at least made her height reach two meters.

"Okay, I’ll change into sportswear!"

Zhang Xuan’er’s face flushed, realizing after all this time, Long Fei was self-conscious about her height.

It wasn’t her fault she was tall, and she wore heels to match her dress, not to show off or anything.

Liu Ruyan covered her mouth and laughed silently, thinking to herself that even Long Fei had insecurities.

She was only one meter seventy-three, standing next to Long Fei she was a whole head shorter, and she didn’t have that problem.
