Chapter 563 Brother
Liu Shanhe was almost going crazy with anger.
They were hosting the influential figures of the Yuwen family here, all with the purpose of matchmaking Yuwen Xinzhou and Liu Yifei, so that they could develop feelings for each other and eventually be together.
As long as Liu Yifei married Yuwen Xinzhou, the Liu family could advance further, and in the future, they might even be able to reside in the capital city and become part of its elite.
But now, Liu Yifei had actually brought a man back?
Wasn't this a slap in the face to their Liu family?
"What's wrong? Why are you so agitated?" Zhao Qingxiu said in a deep voice.
"Mom, it's nothing. Please sit with Mr. Yuwen for a moment. I'll be right back," Liu Shanhe said in a low voice.
After speaking, he left the banquet and prepared to go to the entrance to drive away the man Liu Yifei had brought with her.
Only by doing so could he ensure that the reckless behavior of Liu Yifei wouldn't be discovered by the people from the Yuwen family, and only then could the Liu family still have a glimmer of hope.
Otherwise, once the Yuwen family found out about what Liu Yifei had done, they would surely be furious, and the Liu family would be finished.
"Liu Yifei, what are you trying to do? Yuwen Xinzhou is a young master from a prestigious family, and he's already a four-star war god at such a young age. His future is limitless."
"With such an ideal partner in front of you, why would you choose someone else?"
"You're being foolish!"
Liu Shanhe was so infuriated that he wanted to beat his daughter on the spot.
His daughter was truly being incredibly foolish!
"What's happening?" Yuwen Dongwang asked.
"It's nothing, just a small matter," Liu Shanhe said with a forced smile.
"Dad, you don't need to come out either. I'm already here."
Just at that moment, Liu Yifei, holding Wang Chao's hand, pushed the door open and walked in.
Upon entering, she kissed Wang Chao loudly in front of everyone, making a smacking sound.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of everyone present changed.
Especially Zhao Qingxiu and Liu Shanhe, who turned pale with anger on the spot.
They had been trying to please the Yuwen family in order to gain favor and allow their family's influence to grow, so that their future generations could live better lives.
But now, Liu Yifei's actions completely betrayed the engagement between the two families, destroying their plans!
If the Yuwen family retaliated against their Liu family, they would be doomed.
Yuwen Dongwang's face turned dark as well, his expression changing from a gentle smile to a cold and icy stare as he fixed his gaze on Liu Yifei and Wang Chao.
Suppressing her anger and panic, Zhao Qingxiu said in a deep voice, "Yifei, what do you mean by this?"
Liu Yifei, looking pleased with herself, hugged Wang Chao's arm and made a tall announcement, "Grandmother, Dad, uncles, and everyone else, I'm here today to make a solemn declaration."
"I'm already in love and have a boyfriend. This person here is Wang Chao, my boyfriend."
As soon as she said this, the faces of many people present turned dark.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEspecially Yuwen Dongwang, whose expression became so gloomy that it seemed like water would drip from it.
Seeing Yuwen Dongwang's expression and the expressions of the high-ranking members of the Zhao family, their own expressions became extremely unsightly.
"Yifei, you!!"
Liu Shanhe was so angry that smoke seemed to be coming out of his seven orifices. He clenched his fists, wanting nothing more than to slap Liu Yifei.
How could his precious daughter be so willful at a time like this?
Just as Zhao Qingxi, Yuwen Dongwang, and others were about to erupt in anger, suddenly, Yuwen Xinzhou stood up with great excitement and ran to Wang Chao, looking at him with extreme enthusiasm. "You, are you Brother Wei?"
Brother Wei?
At these words, Zhao Qingxi, Yuwen Dongwang, and everyone present looked at each other, completely dumbfounded.
In the previous scene, didn't Liu Yifei introduce Wang Chao by name?
How could Yuwen Xinzhou mistake him?
"Brother Wei? Who are you?" Wang Chao frowned, looking at Yuwen Xinzhou with a puzzled expression.
"Brother Wei Donglai, don't you recognize me? It's me, Xiaowu!" Yuwen Xinzhou exclaimed excitedly, shaking Wang Chao's hand up and down.
"Three years ago, in the southwest region of the Outer Domain battlefield, you saved my life. Don't you remember?"
Wei Donglai, Outer Domain battlefield, southwest region.
Upon hearing these key pieces of information, Wang Chao immediately recalled something.
At that time, there was a powerful gang in the southwest region of the Outer Domain battlefield that was acting recklessly and showing no regard for the Dark Night Corps. They were brazenly causing destruction in the territory protected by the Dark Night Corps, and they even took many people hostage.
Moreover, this gang was formidable, with a powerful expert in their ranks.
The Dark Night Corps sent many experts to deal with the situation, but they all returned empty-handed.
Later, Master called back Wang Chao, who was on a mission in the west, and asked him to handle the matter.
At that time, Wang Chao had assumed the alias Wei Donglai and rushed to the southwest region of the Outer Domain battlefield alone, single-handedly storming the heart of that gang, wreaking havoc.
When he broke into the territory of that gang, he happened to encounter a young man who was also trying to escape, severely injured and nearly dying from the hands of many experts.
He took the opportunity to kill those people and save the young man, and under the young man's guidance, he went straight to the heart of that gang, rescuing the hostages.
The young man had introduced himself by name, but at the time, Wang Chao was focused on his mission and didn't pay much attention to what the young man said.
Now, hearing Yuwen Xinzhou's words, he suddenly remembered that there was indeed such an incident.
He shook hands with Yuwen Xinzhou and said, "Xiaowu, I remember now. You deceived me, didn't you? Your real name isn't Xiaowu, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes. At that time, I was afraid someone would discover my identity, so I couldn't tell the truth. Brother Wei, I'm sorry," Yuwen Xinzhou said apologetically, holding Wang Chao's hand with a mixture of guilt and excitement. He then turned to Yuwen Dongwang and said, "Grandfather, let me introduce you. This is Wei Donglai, Brother Wei, my savior."
"Now he's with Yifei, so Yifei is my sister-in-law!"
"Therefore, the engagement between Yifei and me is null and void, is that acceptable?"
"What? Null and void engagement?"
Zhao Qingxi's expression changed when she heard these words. She quickly stood up and said, "Xinzhou, breaking off an engagement is a serious matter. You must think carefully before making a decision."
"Yes, yes, Xinzhou, our Yifei is just throwing a tantrum. Don't take it to heart," Liu Shanhe hurriedly added.
"Uncle Liu, Grandma Zhao, I'm serious!"
Yuwen Xinzhou looked serious and said, "A gentleman does not take what belongs to others. Wei Donglai is my savior, and his girlfriend is my sister-in-law. How can I pursue my sister-in-law?"
"Moreover, this time, I am the one breaking off the engagement. I will represent the Yuwen family in compensating your Liu family!"
"Xinzhou, are you sure?" Yuwen Dongwang furrowed his brows slightly.
He had originally thought that Liu Yifei had acted recklessly first, causing embarrassment for their Yuwen family. When he saw Liu Yifei kissing Wang Chao earlier, he felt that their Yuwen family was being bullied, and his heart was filled with anger and killing intent, wanting to cause trouble for the Liu family and regain face.
But now, Yuwen Xinzhou had come up with such a development, leaving him dumbfounded.
Everyone present was also stunned, their eyes filled with astonishment.
No one expected the situation to develop like this!
Even Liu Yifei was dumbfounded!
In Liu Yifei's imagination, once she used Wang Chao as a shield, the Yuwen family would surely be furious and would take action against Wang Chao.
By then, Wang Chao would counterattack and defeat the Yuwen family.
But she never expected that Yuwen Xinzhou wouldn't be angry. Instead, upon seeing Wang Chao, he admired and respected him, showing such enthusiasm and excitement.
Furthermore, Yuwen Xinzhou even referred to her as his sister-in-law!
What was going on?
"Grandfather, I'm very sure!" Yuwen Xinzhou held Wang Chao's hand, sat in front of Yuwen Dongwang, and smiled, saying, "Grandfather, let me introduce you. This is Wei Donglai, Brother Wei, my idol for life and my savior!"
"You often taught me about repaying the favor of a drop of water with a gushing spring. Brother Wei saved my life. Are you trying to make me compete with my savior for a woman?"
Yuwen Dongwang's face turned black.
This grandson was simply despicable, speaking to him like this.
After contemplating for a moment, he said in a deep voice, "Fine, do it as you wish."
Pausing for a moment, he looked at Zhao Qingxiu and Liu Shanhe and said, "Sister Zhao, I'm sorry. It was our fault for unilaterally breaking off the engagement. The Yuwen family apologizes to your Liu family."
"If there is a need in the future, the Yuwen family will certainly go through fire and water without hesitation."
Um...
Zhao Qingxiu and Liu Shanhe looked at each other, unsure of how to respond.
They had thought they would face the wrath of the Yuwen family, but in an instant, the Yuwen family unilaterally broke off the engagement and even said they owed them a favor?
Their emotions went from the depths of despair to the heights of elation, such a rollercoaster ride was truly exhilarating!
Zhao Qingxiu quickly regained her composure and said, "Brother Yuwen, you're being too polite. Our families have been friends for generations, no need to be so formal."
"Yes, yes, we've been friends for generations, both families. Grandma Zhao, on behalf of the Yuwen family, I propose a long-term cooperation contract worth up to 100 billion. Let's celebrate the enduring friendship between the Yuwen and Liu families," Yuwen Xinzhou said.
"Really?" Zhao Qingxiu was overjoyed.
"Of course it's real!" Yuwen Xinzhou declared solemnly. "This collaboration is a celebration of the lasting friendship between our Yuwen and Liu families, an immortal bond."
Zhao Qingxiu and Liu Shanhe, among others, were ecstatic at the news.
If there really was a 100 billion cooperation contract, their enduring friendship and the deepening of their mutual interests would be guaranteed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis friendship could last at least seventy years!
In other words, their families could be considered true allies of the Yuwen family!
However, amidst their stimulation and jubilation, Zhao Qingxiu and Liu Shanhe didn't indulge or lose composure. Instead, they shifted their gaze to Yuwen Dongwang.
Although Yuwen Xinzhou was a rising star of the Yuwen family and a formidable warrior, he was still a junior. Even if he had some influence, he couldn't be the one to decide on a 100 billion contract.
This matter had to be approved by Yuwen Dongwang to be valid!
"What Xinzhou said is equivalent to the word of the head of our Yuwen family," Yuwen Dongwang said.
In other words, the Yuwen family approved of this 100 billion contract!
"Great, great! In that case, let's all sit down and have a meal together."
Zhao Qingxiu was overjoyed and quickly invited everyone to sit down for the meal. She even asked someone to prepare chopsticks for Liu Yifei and Wang Chao.
As the highest-ranking elder of the Liu family, she could see that their family's sudden reversal of fortune was entirely due to Yuwen Xinzhou's consideration for Wang Chao.
With no other choice, Wang Chao reluctantly sat down and had a meal with the Liu family, receiving the highest level of treatment.
"Brother Wei, oh, no, now you're called Brother Wang. Brother Wang, here, let me toast you."
"Brother Wang, where are you working now?"
"Brother Wang..."
Yuwen Xinzhou sat beside Wang Chao the whole time, showing concern and admiration. He raised his glass to toast him again and again, asking about Wang Chao's current job.
He was like a devoted fan of Wang Chao!
He didn't even spare a glance for Liu Yifei and had eyes only for Wang Chao, his eyes sparkling with adoration.
This scene stunned everyone from the Yuwen family!
Yuwen Xinzhou was their family's rising star, a martial arts genius who had been hailed as the top talent among the top ten geniuses of Yanjing since childhood!
He had displayed astonishing martial arts talent from a young age, leaving many peers far behind. Even geniuses twenty years older than him were surpassed by him.
This had nurtured his arrogant and domineering personality, looking down on everyone. He even boasted that given time, he could surpass Sikong Yun and trample him under his feet.
However, this young master who held himself above all others had become a fan of Wang Chao, bowing low in front of him and calling him "brother" repeatedly, his eyes filled with fiery admiration.
Yuwen Dongwang and the others were witnessing Yuwen Xinzhou in this state for the first time, finding it somewhat unbelievable.
"Find out more about this person's background."
Yuwen Dongwang immediately took out his phone and sent a text message to someone responsible for gathering information in the Yuwen family.
At the same time, he observed Wang Chao, scrutinizing him with an intense gaze, as if trying to see through him.
However, no matter how he looked, he couldn't see through Wang Chao.
"I can not see through him, he must be a formidable expert. No wonder Xinzhou admires him so much. This person must have a significant background," Yuwen Dongwang thought.
He was already a nine-star level war god, only one step away from reaching the rank of a half-step Great King. His strength was sufficient to become a local warlord.
Yet, even he could not see through Wang Chao.
It was manifest that Wang Chao's strength was immeasurable.
After learning that Wang Chao worked as a security guard at Danfeng Group, Yuwen Xinzhou paused for a moment before speaking, "Brother Wang, is your company hiring? I desire to join as a security guard too!"
