King of Assassins-Chapter 64: An Family

Outside the operating room, there were still many people, including Xu Feng’s father, Xu An, and other relatives, friends, bodyguards, assistants, and so on.

Liu Yuru suddenly screamed wildly, drawing everyone’s attention.

Liu Yuru was originally very beautiful, dressed in a retro-style cheongsam, covered in pearls and jewelry, exuding the aura of a noblewoman.

She suddenly opened her mouth and screamed, and her face, as smooth as a wax figure, twisted into a grotesque shape, like a demon that had suddenly transformed.

Most of the people present had never seen Liu Yuru like this and were taken aback.

Of course, even more explosive was the news Liu Yuru blurted out: Xu Yin kept a gigolo?!

Xu Yin could be called the most beautiful woman in the Xu Family. Not yet thirty, she was already a professor at Mingjing University. Her Source Power Cultivation had also reached Level 5.

She was certainly talented and beautiful. In the circles of Mingjing City’s elite, Xu Yin was praised for her intellectual temperament. She had countless suitors.

Such a woman with impeccable family background, education, appearance, and ability actually kept a gigolo?

Unexpectedly, externally graceful and elegant, Xu Yin was so flirtatious and wanton at heart!

The eyes of the crowd on Xu Yin now carried more than a hint of oddity and scrutiny.

Xu Yin was rather embarrassed, but fortunately, she could still control her emotions and suppress the boiling blood within her, so as not to blush red and be ridiculed.

She solemnly said, "Third Aunt, Gao Xuan is my friend, not someone I keep."

"Ha, not someone you keep, yet you let him live in your house."

Liu Yuru, agitated due to her son’s severe injury, had always disapproved of Xu Yin’s aloof demeanor.

She sneered, "I heard Gao Xuan is exceedingly handsome and young. It’s fine if you like keeping him. But this gigolo shouldn’t have injured Fengfeng!"

Xu Yin’s face also darkened, "Third Aunt, I understand your feelings, but you can’t speak recklessly. I will say it again: Gao Xuan is my friend."

Xu Yin’s gaze became sharper. Liu Yuru was just a woman who indulged in pleasures and lacked the essence compared to Xu Yin.

Under Xu Yin’s cold and fierce gaze, Liu Yuru’s voice softened a bit.

But she was inherently unreasonable, and after shrinking back, she felt a bit embarrassed and raised her voice even further.

"I don’t believe it! What kind of friendship is that good!"

Because her son was seriously injured, Liu Yuru had already investigated and found out that the owner of the house Gao Xuan lived in was actually Xu Yin.

Now seeing Xu Yin, she naturally wanted to clarify. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

"Gao Xuan saved my life. I gave him the house to repay him. Is that reasonable or not?"

Xu Yin was also getting a little angry. Liu Yuru really considered herself a senior? The Xu Family wasn’t anyone for an outsider to boss around.

Xu An could see something was wrong and pulled Liu Yuru, who was still prepared to argue.

Liu Yuru was full of reluctance and glared fiercely at Xu An, then turned to the other side of the window to check the surgery’s progress.

Xu An whispered to Xu Yin, "Your Third Aunt is ignorant; don’t take her too seriously."

"Third Uncle." Xu Yin politely nodded in greeting.

Xu An wasn’t of high standing in the Xu Family; he lacked ability yet liked to show off. He was more likely to mess things up than to achieve anything.

Xu Yin had a poor impression of this uncle, but since he was still an elder, she couldn’t be lacking in courtesy.

Xu An also notedly nodded; he asked, "What exactly is your relationship with that Gao Xuan?"

"Gao Xuan is my friend; he saved my life."

Xu Yin pleaded, "Third Uncle, I don’t want to assign blame in this matter. Xu Feng is my cousin, our blood relative. But Gao Xuan saved my life. Third Uncle, let’s forget about it. I will provide Xu Feng with enough compensation."

Xu Yin truly didn’t know the full story because Wu Caiyun hadn’t explained it clearly.

But the circumstances were apparent.

Qian Feng, An Hu, and a group of people were brutally beaten in front of Gao Xuan’s home. It was clear Qian Feng and An Hu went looking for trouble, forcing Gao Xuan to retaliate.

Xu Yin had spent two days with Gao Xuan in the White Dragon Mountains and had formed a deep impression of this young man.

It wasn’t just Gao Xuan’s unparalleled handsome face, but because Gao Xuan had always exhibited maturity and poise.

In the Underground Dragon Palace ruins, Gao Xuan calmly handled the situation, warding off Wang Hong’en and saving everyone.

Xu Yin didn’t believe that Gao Xuan would harm people for no reason. So, the matter clearly indicated Xu Feng and his group got what they deserved when trying to bully.

Privately, Xu Yin felt that Xu Feng and his friends had it coming. But she couldn’t say this in front of her Third Uncle Xu An.

"Xiaoyin, for your sake, I can overlook things with Gao Xuan."

Xu An said, "However, you can’t treat Gao Xuan as a friend anymore. You have to reclaim the house. Gao Xuan. The admission letter from Mingjing University, you also need to take it back."

Xu An coldly stated, "Such a violent person isn’t qualified to attend university. Sparing him is my greatest mercy."

Of course, Xu An did this mainly because of Wei Yue’s intervention. He didn’t dare to disrespect them.

He wouldn’t mention that reason; instead, he sought this chance to pressure Xu Yin and expel Gao Xuan from Mingjing University.

Doing so would earn favor with Wei Yue and teach Gao Xuan a lesson, killing two birds with one stone.

Xu Yin knew that Wei Yue had spoken up for Gao Xuan, and she saw through Xu An’s little scheming. She held it in contempt.

Her Third Uncle only knew how to play petty tricks. Yet, in the eyes of others, his actions seemed foolish and laughable.

Xu Yin didn’t have such a strong sense of justice; she would let it go if it were anyone else, but Gao Xuan was her savior. Of course, she also had to admit that Gao Xuan’s looks were absolutely to her taste. This was also very, very important.

These past few days, Xu Yin hadn’t gone to see Gao Xuan, fearing that she might genuinely develop feelings for him, which would be embarrassing.

If something happened to Gao Xuan, she wouldn’t sit idly by, even against Xu An and Xu Feng.

"If Gao Xuan is wrong in this matter, I won’t side with him."

Xu Yin said blandly, "If Gao Xuan isn’t wrong, I won’t side with you either."

Xu An’s face looked a little unpleasant, and he reminded, "Xiaoyin, we are family."

"Gao Xuan saved my life, he’s a lifesaver. We, the Xu Family People, cannot be ungrateful."

Xu Yin nodded slightly to Xu An and said, "Third Uncle, you all watch Xu Feng here. I’ll go investigate the matter thoroughly. If it really is Gao Xuan’s issue, I will definitely give you a reasonable explanation."

Watching Xu Yin leave, Liu Yuru came over to Xu An’s side and jeered, "Your niece doesn’t even regard you as important. That pretty boy must be her lover."

"Don’t talk nonsense."

Xu An was very displeased, "No matter what, Xu Yin is part of our Xu Family."

"She doesn’t treat you like family. See that arrogance in her bones, it’s like we’re just lowly commoners, not worth her attention."

"This time, it was Wei Yue who stepped in, we must give Wei Yue face."

Xu An said with a cold face, "After some time, we will deal with Gao Xuan."

"Is Wei Yue crazy? She can’t even take care of herself yet she’s standing up for others. Could this woman also have taken a liking to the pretty boy?"

Liu Yuru was very angry, feeling that Wei Yue was meddling in other’s business, and spoke rudely.

Xu An glanced at Liu Yuru, "Be careful, Wei Yue is no easy opponent."

He paused for a moment and then sneered, "However, I’ve heard that the An Family has also stepped in. Wei Yue may not be able to overcome this hurdle. When the time comes, hum..."

"What, the An Family has stepped in?"

Liu Yuru became interested, but Xu An said no more. He knew how fast his wife’s mouth could be, he shouldn’t have told her this.

However, the news of the Divine Shield Group’s An Shirong stepping in would soon spread. By then, Wei Yue would barely be able to protect herself, let alone have the ability to protect that little punk Gao Xuan!

Actually, Xu Feng’s injuries weren’t that severe. With advanced medical technology, he would recover in just a few days.

Xu An just couldn’t swallow this anger, especially with Wei Yue stepping in, which made him even more displeased.

When Wei Yue faces misfortune, he definitely would stomp hard too. As for Gao Xuan, by then he would be at his mercy!

In fact, Wei Yue was not unaware of this. Being in the situation made her even more sensitive.

However, Wei Yue was still willing to stand up for Gao Xuan. To her, Gao Xuan’s matters were trivial.

As for the An Family’s involvement, it actually had nothing to do with Gao Xuan. They had long been waiting on the sidelines.

Now that the Fanglian Group was at a disadvantage, the An Family decided to step forward.

The matter of Gao Xuan was also an opportunity for Wei Yue. She wanted to see what stance the An Family would take.

"President An, this is Wei Yue."

On the virtual screen, An Shirong’s handsome face looked very young, with bright eyes, resembling a man in his thirties. He showed no signs of being an eighty-year-old elder.

An Shirong, the president of the Divine Shield Group’s Pegasus Division, was already eighty-four years old. He held high authority and was a tenth-level expert— a true big shot in Mingjing City.

An Shirong was also polite to Wei Yue: "Little Wei, is there something you need?"

"President An, it’s like this, a little friend of mine had a bit of a conflict with a member of the An Family."

Before Wei Yue could finish speaking, An Shirong interrupted her with a smile, "Kids playing around, it’s nothing."

Wei Yue smiled and said, "President An is magnanimous, on behalf of that little friend, I thank you."

"If you’re pleading, then these small matters are not worth mentioning."

An Shirong pondered for a moment and said, "However, recently your conflict with the Fanglian Group is quite large, affecting the stability of Mingjing."

"I’m also forced by circumstances, President An, you must understand." Wei Yue said helplessly, "If President An could persuade the Fanglian Group to back off, that would be excellent."

An Shirong smiled slightly, "Alright, I’ll act as a mediator. Let’s find a time for you and the Fang Brothers to come over, and everyone can sit down and have a good talk."

He reassured Wei Yue again, "We’re all Mingjing people, what’s there that can’t be discussed?"

"We’ll follow President An’s arrangements." Wei Yue closed the video communication with a smile.

An Shirong looked at the extinguished screen and suddenly laughed.

An Shiping beside him was puzzled, "Big brother, what are you laughing at?"

"This Wei Yue woman is quite intriguing."

An Shirong said with some sentiment, "I originally lost interest in women, but seeing her, I have a little desire to conquer."

An Shiping said, "In another two months, Wei Yue will have to bow under big brother’s command. Hahaha..."

This vulgar joke also made An Shirong very pleased.

An Shiping hesitated and said, "Zhao Feng, Fang Zhenshan, and Yan Tiejun were killed one after another, could Wei Yue be with the Blood God Association?"

"How could that be."

An Shirong waved confidently, "I know the Blood God Association well, Wei Yue wouldn’t have anything to do with them."

He thought for a moment and said, "But with these two assassins turning up suddenly, it needs a good investigation. It’s very possible they were hired by Wei Yue."

The Wei Family is, after all, an old noble family, and hiring formidable experts isn’t surprising.

An Shirong didn’t worry too much: "Two sneaky assassins can only kill wastes like Fang Zhenshan and Yan Tiejun."

An Shiping chuckled along, "Petty people, nothing to worry about."

He paused and then said, "Big brother, An Hu is seriously injured, our An Family cannot suffer this insult."

An Hu is his son; naturally, An Shiping didn’t want to endure this, nor did he feel it necessary to endure.

"Don’t bother with such a minor issue. Once we take over Yuanlong Company, Wei Yue can be played, let alone a wild brat she’s protecting..."

An Shirong showed some disdain, thinking his brother was really useless—they were already sixty years old, yet still so short-sighted. Couldn’t tolerate even a bit of loss. Truly a waste.

An Shiping nodded with a compensatory smile, "Big brother’s lesson is right. Once Wei Yue is taken down, I’ll personally peel that brat’s skin."
