Chapter 198 - All Hail Xu Xiyan

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

Miss Song had a smug look on her face, as she had come prepared.

"You…" Wan Dou rolled her sleeves up and was about to cover for Xu Xiyan.

But just before she could do anything, she heard a gust of wind fly by her ear, and four slaps echoing throughout the private dining room.

She looked at where the slaps came from and saw Xu Xiyan standing in front of Miss Song.

Both of Miss Song's cheeks were red from the slaps. She held her face and glared at Xu Xiyan.

"How dare you hit me!" Miss Song shouted.

"And who says I can't?" Xu Xiyan said as she stared at Miss Song. "Let me tell you something. I'll always bite back at anyone who dares to bring me harm! Those four slaps are me biting back! I'll let you go since you're acquainted with Ma Haodong. I don't want any more trouble for today."

"Leave?" Miss Song said. "Do you think I will just leave like this? Let me show you what despair looks like."

Miss Song turned towards the four men behind her and ordered, "Take care of her. Let her know what it's like to look down on me!"

"Don't… don't come closer!" Wan Dou shouted as she tried to block the four men. "Do you know who Jing Xi is? Who our boss is? If…"

Wan Dou didn't finish her sentence as she was pushed aside by one of the men.

Wan Dou was afraid that they might harm Xu Xiyan. She picked up her phone and called Huo Yunshen.

The four men ignored Wan Dou and tried to grab Xu Xiyan.

Good, it has been some time since I've exercised!

Xu Xiyan thought as she loosened her arms and legs, the four men fast approaching.

She threw a quick left hook at one of the men, and he staggered backward, bringing down the table as he fell.

She kicked another guy and sent him flying into the wall.

Punches and kicks echoed throughout the whole room as Ma Haodong slept soundly. Wan Dou suddenly felt that calling Huo Yunshen seemed unnecessary.

She had been worried about Xu Xiyan before everything happened, but now she let out a sigh of relief as she saw the four men were the people getting their butts kicked.

The only thing going through Wan Dou's mind was how strong Xu Xiyan was.

All hail Xu Xiyan!

Xu Xiyan kept on punishing the four dudes. Miss Song was stunned as she saw Xu Xiyan grabbing a chair and bringing it down on one of the men.

She knew that Xu Xiyan used to work as a stunt double for the "Root of Evil," but she'd never seen Xu Xiyan in action before. Now she was witnessing Xu Xiyan beat up the four men that she'd brought with swift and powerful movements.

The room was already in a mess after Xu Xiyan had stopped. All of the furniture was destroyed, except for the table that Ma Haodong was sleeping on.

No matter how strong Xu Xiyan was, she was still fighting four fully grown men. Even though she'd won, she still suffered some hits here and there. She was massaging her arm when a swarm of bodyguards wearing dark suits rushed in.

"Jing Xi, are you all right?" Yi Xiao asked.

Upon seeing Yi Xiao, Xu Xiyan guessed that Huo Yunshen would probably come too. Without thinking, she lay down on the floor and started moaning in pain.

Wan Dou: "…"

She was confused as to what had happened to the powerful and energetic Lady Boss.

Why did she suddenly lie on the floor and mimic Lin Daiyu1?

Unsurprisingly, a wheelchair came through the door, and the man in the wheelchair had a stern face and a look of repressed anger.

His eyes shot sharp cold glances, like a sword piercing the skin of others.

Huo Yunshen wheeled his wheelchair in, sweeping his gaze across the messy private room. He caught sight of the woman lying down on the floor. His pupils dilated slightly and his brow furrowed. He rushed over.

"Jing Xi! Jing Xi..."

He couldn't hide his anxiety or worry, and reached out his hands to grab hold of Xu Xiyan's wrist, wanting to help her up.

How could Xu Xiyan give up on the opportunity to test Prince Charming's heart!

She took advantage of the situation, lay on his knees and cried, "Mr. Huo, is it really you? Mr. Huo, you are finally here. I was being bullied!" She sobbed.

"Was it them?"

Huo Yunshen glanced at the group of men that crouching on the floor, obviously in pain.

Xu Xiyan answered with all seriousness, "Yes! If it wasn't for Wan Dou who subdued these people, I might have lost my life."

Wan Dou: "..."

Lady Boss, is it really good to be so humble?

I really didn't do anything...

You are the one that subdued all these people.

"Did you get hurt? Is it painful?"

Seeing Xu Xiyan's aggrieved little face and lingering tears, Huo Yunshen felt a wrenching heartache.

He felt that it was all his fault for being late, and not being able to protect his woman at the first moment of the incident.

"It hurts! It hurts... here! Here...and here...it all hurts!"

Xu Xiyan pointed at multiple areas on her body, moaning aggrievedly.

In reality, if she had been seriously injured, she would not have told Huo Yunshen because she did not want to cause him any trouble.

Someone had touched his darling, and Huo Yunshen was very angry. He was furious. He immediately ordered Yi Xiao to have these people arrested.

Huo Yunshen pointed at Miss Song who had collapsed, and was now sitting on the floor.

"Is she the one who brought them here to seek trouble?"

Wan Dou felt confident and proud upon seeing the Boss, so she explained the situation quickly. "Mr. Huo, it's her! She slapped Jing Xi. Not only that, she also spoke insolently about Jing Xi. She said a lot of nasty words to insult her!"

"Oh! Really?" Huo Yunshen sneered. "Who has such guts?"

At this time, as though he had a computer software installed, Yi Xiao recited Miss Song's background.

"Ma Haodong's manager, Song Xiangping, worked as manager for 5 years. Her parents are working class. Has an 80-year-old grandfather and a younger brother in middle school. Her boyfriend is a cameraman at Huayin Entertainment."

Huo Yunshen's bewitching eyes shot a cold glance, and his tone was light. "Song Xiangping, go on, how do you think I should punish you?"

At that moment, Miss Song felt as if she was in hell. Her legs trembled and she could not run any longer.

Huo Yunshen, that's Huo Yunshen!

The iron CEO of Yunhai Entertainment, dominator of the whole entertainment industry, in control of the life and death of many. He, too, is Jing Xi's backer?!
