Chapter 400: I'll handle it

Xiao Nanfei saw this and said dissatisfiedly.

"Dad, is this something to brag about?"

"Do you not know? Because of him, our Xiao family has already offended the Chen and Liu families!"

"Especially the Chen family feels we have damaged their face and will surely come to settle scores with us."

Hearing his son's words, Xiao Zhengguo's face sank and he said.

"I, Xiao Zhengguo, have never feared anyone in my life!"

"Or do you think Lin Yang should watch me be beaten to death by the Chen family's people?"

Hearing this, Xiao Nanfei was instantly speechless.

He sighed and said to Xiao Zhengguo.

"Dad, talking about this here is useless."

"What we should do now is find a way to withstand the pressure from the Chen family!"

After saying this, he felt even more deflated.

Behind the Chen family stands the Heavenly Martial Hall.

The Heavenly Martial Hall is a special organization of Da Xia.

If they really act against the Xiao family, it would be quite a tricky matter.

Just as Xiao Nanfei was worrying, Lin Yang laughed and said.

"Uncle Xiao, I will handle this matter."

"You will handle it?"

Xiao Nanfei sized up Lin Yang from head to toe, sighed, and said.

"Do you know who is behind the Chen family, yet you dare to say this?"

"Our Xiao family doesn't even dare say we can withstand it."

The old man, upon hearing Xiao Nanfei's words, stepped forward and slapped his head with a slap.

"You brat, you can't withstand it yourself, yet Lin Yang wants to withstand it, and you still mock him."

"Aren't you just asking for a beating?"

The slapped Xiao Nanfei covered his head and said with a wronged expression.

"Dad, this is in front of the children; please give me some face."

Hearing this, the old man blew his beard and glared as he said.

"You still care about face? Just now you looked flustered, not like a head of household at all."

"I spit!"

Seeing his father being scolded, Xiao Hua'an also laughed.

He hadn't seen his father beaten in a long time, and this made him feel extremely satisfied.

While Xiao Nanfei was being scolded, he curiously asked Lin Yang.

"Behind the Chen family is the Heavenly Martial Hall; aren't you afraid?"

Looking at the curious Xiao Hua'an, Lin Yang laughed and said.

"I think it should be the Heavenly Martial Hall's people who are afraid of me!"

Xiao Hua'an froze, then gave Lin Yang a thumbs up.

"Or maybe you're just boasting, daring to say such things."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhengguo nodded with a satisfied expression and said.

"Do you see? This is my grandson-in-law; you are far inferior to him."

"Someone this old might as well have lived in vain."

The scolded Xiao Nanfei shook his head.

He certainly wouldn't change his opinion of Lin Yang just because of his father's words.

No matter how capable Lin Yang is, he's still just one person.

How could he possibly compare to the Heavenly Martial Hall?

He sighed, thinking about how to appease the Heavenly Martial Hall's people.

At least, let the Heavenly Martial Hall side not act against their Xiao family.

Just as he was thinking, a loud voice sounded.

"Is the Xiao family head present?"

"Who is it?"

Outside the door, a man in his thirties, striding like a dragon and tiger, full of arrogance, walked into the Xiao family.

Seeing the visitor, Xiao Nanfei's expression changed slightly.

He fell silent for a moment, then smiled and walked to the living room.

"Oh, it's Mr. Meng; what matter brings you to grace my Xiao family with your presence?"

Meng Haozheng, upon hearing this, said with a fake smile.

"What matter? You don't know?"

"Do I really have to spell it out so clearly?"

Xiao Nanfei replied with an apologetic smile: "I really don't know; please just tell me straight."

Meng Haozheng snorted coldly: "Then I'll just say it straight."

You Xiao family have offended the Chen family; Hall Master Chen's side is very dissatisfied and demands an explanation from you.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Nanfei produced a bank card and slipped it into Meng Haozheng's hand without changing expression.

Mr. Meng, I think there's a misunderstanding about this matter. When you go back, you must tell Hall Master Chen that I am willing to explain it to him in person.

Holding a bank card, Meng Haozheng's smile eased a bit.

He laughed and said, "Actually, the Hall Master also believes that your Xiao family are not rebellious people."

But, the old master's conduct at the Liu family has made it difficult for the Hall Master to maintain face there.

At this moment, Xiao Yufan walked in.

Wearing a form-fitting outfit with her hair tied in two ponytails, Xiao Yufan asked as soon as she entered.

How is my grandfather?

Xiao Nanfei looked at Xiao Yufan, frowned, and said.

Yufan, you have nothing to do here; hurry back to your room.

Meng Haozheng looked at Xiao Yufan and couldn't help but brighten up.

Head of the Xiao family, is this your daughter?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Nanfei instantly became wary.

He said, "My daughter is only twenty-two; she's still young."

Meng Haozheng laughed heartily and said.

What a coincidence, my son is also exactly twenty-four, two years older than your daughter.

How about we become in-laws?

Seeing Xiao Nanfei frown, Meng Haozheng said with a chuckle.

My son graduated from Jinling University, he's versatile in dealing with people, and I think they're a good match!

Moreover, I have considerable influence in the Heavenly Martial Hall; if we become in-laws, I'll handle the Hall Master Chen side.

Xiao Nanfei, who had wanted to rebut, fell silent at once.

Meng Haozheng, after all, is also a member of the Heavenly Martial Hall; although he is not the hall master, he is a core member.

If the two families become allied by marriage, it wouldn't be a loss.

Seeing Xiao Nanfei hesitate, Meng Haozheng also seized the moment to say.

Our two families are also well-matched; Xiao family head, you don't need to consider it further.

Just then, Xiao Yufan shouted.

I don't want to!

Meng Xuan's name has spread all over our friends' circle; he's a scumbag!

I certainly don't want to marry him!

Xiao Yufan suddenly spoke up, putting Meng Haozheng in an awkward spot.

But soon, he said.

Young people, who doesn't make a mistake?

After he gets married, he will change.

Seeing Xiao Nanfei still not speaking, Xiao Yufan anxiously said.

Dad, I really don't want to marry that guy!

I am your daughter, after all.

Xiao Nanfei remained silent for a while, then said to Xiao Yufan.

Let me think about this matter.

Hearing that Xiao Nanfei did not outright reject it, Meng Haozheng felt there was hope.

He laughed and said, "Mr. Xiao, as long as you agree, I'll go prepare the betrothal gifts right now!"

Rest assured, my betrothal gifts will not disappoint you.

Just then, the old master walked up to Xiao Nanfei.

Looking at the old master, Xiao Nanfei called out.

Dad...

Before his words even fell, Xiao Zhengguo raised his hand and delivered a harsh slap.

I just said at the Liu family that I wouldn't trade my relatives' happiness for profit; what are you pondering here!

Are you planning to trample my old face into the ground!

Xiao Nanfei, who had been struck, did not rebut his father but instead asked.

Then do we have to face the Heavenly Martial Hall and the Chen family?

I've said it, I will deal with the Heavenly Martial Hall and the Chen family.

Moreover, the matter of striking the Chen family was also done by me, and it has nothing to do with you.

Everyone looked over and saw Lin Yang walking over slowly.
