Chapter 445 Admitting to Being Boyfriend and Girlfriend
Chapter 445 Admitting to Being Boyfriend and Girlfriend
When Leng Feng brought Su Xiao to the Qi family villa, it was already close to dusk.
The members of the Yu Yue Qing Xuan Feng group had already gathered in the living room, and the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.
Su Xiao sat down next to Leng Feng with her head down, her eyes filled with unease and anticipation.
"Su Xiao, welcome, but please tell me about your background."
Qiu Ziyue spoke first, her tone calm but with a hint of scrutiny.
Her gaze swept across Su Xiao's face, then turned to Leng Feng, as if trying to find the answer in his expression.
Su Xiao took a deep breath and slowly spoke:
"My father is a business tycoon in S City, with many bodyguards under his command."
Two years ago, after my mother passed away,
I was brought to live in City S. But my father didn't care about me; he only used me as a tool to achieve his business goals.
As she spoke, her voice trembled slightly, and a thin mist welled up in her eyes.
Last year, my father forced me to marry a businessman in his forties who was of bad character and a womanizer.
I didn't want to, so I chose to escape.
I fled to Z City because I remembered Leng Feng mentioning that he studied there, and I thought...maybe I could find him.
Hearing this, Qiu Ziyue raised an eyebrow and stared at Su Xiao with even sharper eyes.
"So, you didn't encounter Leng Feng by chance?"
Su Xiao bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up her courage to say:
"Actually, Qiu Ziyue, you, Leng Feng, and I all went to Lanshan Middle School in high school, but we weren't in the same class."
I had feelings for Leng Feng back then, but I never had the chance to confess. This time, after escaping, I came to find him with a try-it-and-see attitude.
I never expected to actually encounter it; God is truly blessed with good fortune.
After saying this, Su Xiao's cheeks flushed red, and she lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the crowd.
Leng Feng awkwardly rubbed his hands together and lowered his head to avoid Qiu Ziyue's gaze.
A brief silence fell over the room.
Only the rustling of leaves in the wind outside the window could be heard.
"In that case, let's discuss where you're going."
Qiu Ziyue broke the silence first, turning her gaze to Zhao Wanqing.
"Wanqing, what do you think? Is it okay to let Su Xiao stay with you temporarily?"
After all, given her father's power, if he knew she was here, he would probably send people to investigate.
Zhao Wanqing frowned, clearly weighing the pros and cons.
She looked at Leng Feng and asked softly:
"I'm willing to help you, but only if you two express your willingness to become lovers. Only then will I be willing to take this risk."
Su Xiao nodded quickly, her voice urgent: "I'm willing."
"And what about you, Leng Feng? I can tell you're interested in her. If you agree, I'll let Su Xiao stay at my place."
Zhao Wanqing continued.
Leng Feng raised his head and said:
"I want to give each other a chance to get to know each other first, after all, Su Xiao and I have only known each other for a short time."
However, no matter what, I think we should all help her.
Qiu Ziyue smiled and patted Leng Feng on the shoulder:
"You're quite loyal. However, this can't be done by you alone."
We need to develop a detailed plan to ensure everything goes smoothly.
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside the door.
A maid rushed in and said to Qi Yuxuan in a flustered manner:
"Master, someone is looking for you outside! They claim to be from S City and say they have something to discuss."
Everyone was stunned.
Leng Feng suddenly stood up, his expression turning serious.
"It seems that Su Xiao's father has already realized something."
Qiu Ziyue quickly realized what was happening and whispered:
"Su Xiao, hide in the basement first and don't make a sound. The rest of you, prepare to deal with the visitors and see who they are."
Without asking any further questions, Su Xiao immediately turned and ran towards the stairs.
In the living room, Qiu Ziyue and Zhao Wanqing greeted the uninvited guests.
The leader was a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, with a professional smile on his face, but his eyes were as cold as knives.
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Qi Yuxuan's residence?"
The man asked politely, but his tone carried an undeniable air of authority.
Qi Yuxuan stepped forward and smiled calmly:
"I am the owner of this place. May I ask what brings you here?"
The man took a photo out of his pocket and handed it to her; it was a picture of Su Xiao.
"We are looking for this young lady, who is the daughter of Chairman Su Yuguo in City S. We would be very grateful if you could provide any clues."
Qiu Ziyue took the photo and examined it carefully:
"May I ask who you are to this young lady, and why you are looking for her here?"
"I am Liu Mingkun, president of Huayu Group in S City. The woman in the photo is my fiancée, Su Xiao."
I heard she came to Z City, and according to a private investigator, she's here.
Qiu Ziyue glanced at the photo, then handed it to Liu Mingkun, before gently shaking her head.
"I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with this lady, and I've never seen her before."
Liu Mingkun narrowed his eyes, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Qiu Ziyue, Qi Yuxuan, and Leng Feng.
A slight, cold smile played on his lips.
"Mr. Qi, Ms. Qiu, I know you are popular celebrities, and it is said that you have legendary status."
But I'm certain my fiancée is at your place, because I've already installed a tracking device on her.
Mr. Liu,
Qi Yuxuan maintained his calm smile, but a hint of coldness lingered between his brows.
"You seem unfamiliar with the rules of our Qi family. Since you say your fiancée is with us..."
"Then you can provide us with some evidence, instead of just relying on a so-called 'tracker' to prove it."
"evidence?"
Liu Mingkun gave a light snort.
"Do I need more? Su Xiao is my fiancée, and her father is the chairman of the Su Group."
Her safety is my responsibility. If she's really here, you'd better hand her over, or else…
"Otherwise what?"
Leng Feng suddenly stepped forward, his eyes sharp as knives, staring directly at Liu Mingkun.
"You think you can make us back down with a threat? Let me tell you, Su Xiao is already my girlfriend, and she has nothing to do with you or her father!"
The atmosphere in the room froze instantly, and a tense, almost palpable, sense of impending conflict filled the air.
Qiu Ziyue subconsciously took a step closer and whispered a reminder:
"Calm down, don't fall for his provocation."
But Leng Feng clearly wouldn't listen; he pointed at Liu Mingkun and continued:
"If you dare to bother Su Xiao again, I won't be polite!"
Liu Mingkun's expression was uncertain. He stared at Leng Feng for a few seconds before slowly speaking:
"Ah, I see. No wonder Su Xiao has been missing for so long, so she was with you."
"But you young upstart, do you think you can protect her forever? The Su family isn't someone to be trifled with!"
"enough!"
Qi Yuxuan slammed his hand on the table, his voice deep and powerful.
"Mr. Liu, no matter what forces are behind you, you have to give me an explanation today."
Now, please leave my villa immediately, or don't blame me for being ruthless!
Liu Mingkun remained silent for a moment, then a strange smile appeared on his lips.
"Alright, since you insist, I'll take my leave for now."
However, remember my words—the Su family's patience is limited, and I hope you won't force me to take the next step.
After saying that, he turned and strode away, his figure disappearing outside the door.
After Liu Mingkun left, Qi Yuxuan breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Leng Feng.
"Brother Leng, this matter may not be so easy to resolve. The marriage alliance between the Su family and Huayu Group is a major event in itself."
This whole mess is likely to cause quite a stir.
Leng Feng's brows were furrowed, and his knuckles were white as he clenched his fist.
“I know, but Su Xiao doesn’t like Liu Mingkun. If she were to marry him, her life would be ruined.”
Qiu Ziyue sighed softly.
"In any case, we need to figure out a strategy now. If the Su family really uses its resources against us, that would be quite troublesome."
Just then, the phone rang, breaking the brief silence.
Qi Yuxuan answered the phone and heard the other party say a few hurried words before his expression turned extremely serious.
"what happened?"
Leng Feng immediately asked.
Qi Yuxuan hung up the phone, his tone grave.
"It was Aunt Qin who called just now. She said someone forced their way into the basement, and the situation is very dangerous..."
