Chapter 87

“Indeed, much better, and really ticklish too,” Zhou Lingxi pulled back her foot, her cheeks flushed, hair slightly disheveled, and beads of sweat on her forehead.

She coyly glanced at Jiang Che. It dawned on her why he had taken her to buy black stockings – it seemed he had that kind of preference…

“Hehe… If it bothers you again, I’m always available to help,” Jiang Che said with a grin.

“Alright, we’re home, let’s go to sleep,” he said, getting out of the car.

Zhou Lingxi put on her high heels and followed. Jiang Che tossed the keys to a bodyguard to park the car and walked towards the mansion, his arm around Zhou Lingxi’s soft waist.

She didn’t resist Jiang Che’s closeness anymore; after spending the day together, she had gotten used to his intimate gestures.

They had only walked a few steps when someone blocked their path. Jiang Che looked up – it was none other than their very own Lord of the Asuras, Xiao Fan! Surprisingly persistent, Jiang Che thought, smirking and tightening his grip on Zhou Lingxi.

“Why are you here?” Zhou Lingxi asked coldly, losing the joy she had with Jiang Che moments ago.

“My wife…I’ve come…” Xiao Fan started, but his words triggered Zhou Lingxi’s anger.

“Shut up! I’m not your wife!” She interrupted, her face turning red with rage.

“Fine… Lingxi…” Xiao Fan, realizing his mistake, quickly corrected himself.

“Don’t call me Lingxi, call me Doctor Zhou!” she snapped.

“Okay… Doctor Zhou,” Xiao Fan complied reluctantly.

“Why are you here bothering me? I told you, we have nothing to do with each other. Don’t disrupt my life!”

“Ling…Doctor Zhou, are you being coerced by him?” Xiao Fan asked earnestly. “If he’s forcing you, just tell me, I can help.”

“Coerced?” Zhou Lingxi almost laughed. “Do I look like I’m being coerced?” She then boldly kissed Jiang Che, and cuddled into his embrace, her heart pounding – it was her first kiss, unexpectedly given to Jiang Che…

Jiang Che, taken aback by her sudden move, quickly realized her intention – to make Xiao Fan give up completely. No man could stand seeing his wife kiss another man.

Jiang Che wondered if Xiao Fan would retaliate if he slapped him in front of Zhou Lingxi.

“Lingxi…you…” Xiao Fan was stunned, unable to comprehend Zhou Lingxi’s actions.

“Xiao Fan, is it?” Jiang Che let Zhou Lingxi step aside and confronted Xiao Fan, towering over him. “Lingxi is my girlfriend, I hope you won’t foolishly bother us anymore!”

With that, Jiang Che, gathering inner strength in his palm, slapped Xiao Fan, sending him flying into a tree.

“You…” Xiao Fan coughed under the tree, and Jiang Che realized he had underestimated the resilience of a protagonist like Xiao Fan, who endured the attack without fighting back to avoid revealing his identity in front of Zhou Lingxi.

“Kid, better not let me see you again. If I do, I’ll beat you every time,” Jiang Che warned, taking Zhou Lingxi’s hand and leaving.

As they walked away, Jiang Che thought about the long road ahead. There was no rush to end this game; they had plenty of time to play.

“Boss, why didn’t you fight back just now?”

“Cough cough cough…” Xiao Fan got up from the ground, coughing a few times while holding his aching cheek.

“You don’t understand… If I had fought back just now, I would have exposed myself. Lingxi would definitely blame me for deceiving her all along.” Xiao Fan spoke with a dark expression, still feeling the surge of blood and qi in his chest from Jiang Che’s merciless slap.

“What…” Yang Gaofei stared at Xiao Fan in disbelief, shocked by his words. Was such submission necessary? Almost beaten to death and still not fighting back?

Truthfully, he was starting to understand why Zhou Lingxi looked down on this guy. Being such a pushover, what woman could admire that? Moreover, he really couldn’t understand what Xiao Fan had been hiding.

If he had just come clean earlier, the Zhou family might not have despised him so much, and maybe he would already be happily in love with Zhou Lingxi. What a peculiar fellow…

“Have our people arrived in Linjiang City yet?”

Xiao Fan, unaware of Yang Gaofei’s strange gaze, stood up, brushed off the dust, and spoke while holding his chest.

“Besides the brothers who have always been in Jiuzhou Country, those abroad haven’t arrived yet. But they’ve taken the earliest flights and will arrive soon.” Yang Gaofei answered truthfully.

“By the way, Boss, the Vice Hall Master is also coming.” As he said this, Yang Gaofei’s expression turned odd.

In the Shura Hall, it was well-known that the Hall Master and the Vice Hall Master didn’t get along, but their supporters were almost equal, so they had been in a stalemate for years.

But Xiao Fan, having been a son-in-law in the Zhou family for three years and neglecting the affairs of the Shura Hall, had already dissatisfied many of his supporters.

“Is she also coming?” Hearing Yang Gaofei’s words, Xiao Fan’s brows furrowed deeply, his face filling with irritation. Just thinking of that woman irritated him.

He had always been at odds with her, but with similar cultivation levels, neither could overcome the other over the years. If she came to Jiuzhou Country, it might expose his identity!

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan felt extremely troubled; he didn’t want his three years of effort to be in vain.

“We can’t let her come to Jiuzhou Country! Find a way to stop her!” Xiao Fan spoke with a grim tone.

“But, Vice Hall Master going wherever she pleases isn’t something we can stop.” Yang Gaofei replied with a wry smile.

“Then create some accidents…” Xiao Fan sneered, filled with pent-up anger. If that woman was deliberately walking into danger, he couldn’t be blamed!
