Chapter 327: Chapter 327 Xiao Xiao’s Retention
Villa living room.
Old Jiang and Du Qiubai sat down, along with nine elders, and Du Wenqi and the grandsons of the ten Martial Arts Families also took their seats.
Old Jiang asked the maid to serve tea to Du Qiubai and the nine elders.
Everyone took a sip of tea.
Old Jiang’s face showed indignation as he looked at everyone and said, “Everyone knows why we are gathered here today. It’s because yesterday, our grandson was injured and humiliated by Lin Fei.”
“Old Jiang, just talking about this matter makes angry. You call it a good martial arts exchange eting, but this Lin Fei actually resorted to violence, injuring our grandson,” an elder in his seventies said indignantly.
“That’s right, when have we, the ten Martial Arts Families, ever been humiliated like this?”
“Lin Fei is just relying on his connections with the prestigious sons and daughters of four big families, and he’s so arrogant, not respecting our Martial Arts Families.”
“We absolutely cannot let him go.”
The other elders expressed their anger one after another.
As the elders of Martial Arts Families, having been renowned all their lives, how could they endure such humiliation?
Old Jiang looked toward Du Qiubai with respect and said, “Master Qiubai, what do you think we should do about this Lin Fei?”
Du Qiubai said, “Lin Fei injured all the sons and twisted Wenqi’s wrist. This matter not only concerns the honor and disgrace of the ten Martial Arts Families, but it also concerns the Du family. I will not sit idly by, nor will I swallow this grievance.”
“Master Qiubai is right! Lin Fei injured and insulted us at the association eting, and it’s an insult to both the Du family and the ten Martial Arts Families.” At this ti, Du Wenqi stood up, full of indignation, speaking with fervor. His heavily bandaged wrist continued to wave as he spoke.
It seed like he was afraid that others wouldn’t notice how badly his wrist was injured.
Of course, his wrist, wrapped in thick bandages, wasn’t actually injured. It was purely to stir up hostility against Lin Fei. He had intentionally wrapped thick bandages before visiting Old Jiang’s house today, pretending his wrist was seriously hurt.
Sure enough, as Du Wenqi’s heavily bandaged right hand waved around, Old Jiang and the other elders noticed the seemingly badly injured hand.
“Wenqi, what’s the matter with your right hand?” Old Jiang couldn’t help but ask Du Wenqi with concern.
Du Wenqi imdiately answered with hatred on his face, “This is all thanks to Lin Fei. Yesterday, at the martial arts exchange eting, Lin Fei crazily injured over sixty people, including your grandsons.
I couldn’t stand this villain’s actions, so I called the police, wanting this villain to be brought to justice. But Lin Fei was so brazen, he not only stopped from calling the police but also threatened and twisted my wrist.”
“Outrageous! Truly outrageous!” Old Jiang hit the sofa angrily, shouting.
The other nine elders also cursed angrily.
“Everyone, you have seen and heard it. This Lin Fei not only injured your grandsons but also hard people from the Du family. We need say no more, we should imdiately send soone to bring Lin Fei here, abolish his martial arts, serve as a warning so that the whole Huadu doesn’t think the Du family and the ten Martial Arts Families can be bullied by everyone.”
Old Jiang’s face showed hesitation, saying, “But, Master Qiubai, Lin Fei has connections with the young masters and daughters of the Xiao, Qin, Yuan, and Li families. If we move against Lin Fei, these four prestigious families might interfere.”
Du Qiubai coldly laughed, “If the four prestigious families want to ddle, then I’ll deal with them together. My Du family has not feared any prestigious family in the capital, and how could we fear re Huadu’s four prestigious families?”
Old Jiang and the other nine elders’ faces showed joy.
This was exactly the assurance they wanted from Du Qiubai.
As long as Du Qiubai, the prestigious heir from the capital, promised to back them, they felt emboldened.
“Great, with Master Qiubai supporting us, we also fear not the four prestigious families. Let’s send our steward to bring Lin Fei here.”

The Xiao family, Qinxiang Tower.
Lin Fei followed the maid to the front of the building.
“Mr. Lin, the young lady is inside. I will take my leave now,” the maid said to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei nodded.
After the maid left, Lin Fei entered Qinxiang Tower.
“Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao…” Lin Fei entered the building but didn’t see Xiao Xiao, so he called softly.
“Lin Fei, I’m upstairs.” Xiao Xiao’s gentle voice ca from upstairs.
Lin Fei climbed the stairs to the second floor, only to see Xiao Xiao dressed in a casual white fitted sports outfit, crouched in front of the small cabin on the balcony.
Lin Fei walked over, and imdiately a little ball ca running out of the cabin, raising its little head and barking “ow ow ow ow” toward Lin Fei.
But this barking was not hostile at all; it was very cheerful.
Lin Fei squatted down and smilingly reached out to pet the little ball.
“It seems the little ball has rembered you and started getting close to you,” Xiao Xiao said, slightly turning her head, her silky hair falling from her sweet shoulders, her smile incomparably beautiful.
Lin Fei was montarily distracted by her beauty: Xiao Xiao always had an unintentional, heartwarming charm.
Xiao Xiao suddenly noticed Lin Fei staring at her and a faint blush appeared on her face, yet she felt a trace of sweetness in her heart for so reason.
“Ow ow ow ow…” At this mont, the little ball began barking again.
Lin Fei snapped back to reality, looked at the little ball, and asked, “Little ball, what’s up?”
“Ow ow ow ow~~~” The little ball seed anxious, and suddenly grabbed Lin Fei’s sleeve with its mouth, pulling toward the small cabin with all its might.
Lin Fei looked toward the small cabin and saw the sickly little Bai inside.
Lin Fei and Xiao Xiao exchanged glances, imdiately understanding. The reason the little ball was anxious and pulling Lin Fei’s sleeve was to have him help treat little Bai.
Lin Fei laughed and said to Xiao Ling, “Little ball and little Bai must have been lovers in the past life, otherwise they wouldn’t be so in love, inseparable.”
Xiao Xiao nodded.
Lin Fei approached the small cabin, and the little ball, seeing Lin Fei ready to treat little Bai, let go of his sleeve, wagging its tail happily, circling around Lin Fei.
Lin Fei carried little Bai out from the small cabin.
Then, his eyes focused, and he used his gaze to examine little Bai’s whole body.
After a thorough check, a smile appeared on Lin Fei’s face: Actually, little Bai wasn’t seriously ill, it just had so stomach problems.
The issue was that for the past few days, little Bai, like the little ball, had barely eaten, leading to so stomach inflammation which affected its appetite.
“How is it? Is little Bai seriously ill?” Xiao Xiao asked with concern.
Lin Fei replied, “Not a big deal, its stomach is a bit uncomfortable, I’ll massage it.”
Then Lin Fei placed his palm on little Bai’s abdon, using True Qi to treat it.
After more than ten minutes, Lin Fei withdrew his palm, and the sickly little Bai imdiately beca lively. Lin Fei placed it on the ground, and little Bai went to the feeding box to start eating dog food.
“Ow ow ow ow…” The little ball, seeing little Bai healed, wagged its tail in joy, barking happily at Lin Fei.
Xiao Xiao laughed and said, “Little ball is thanking you!”
“Haha, the little one really knows how to be grateful.” Lin Fei stood up and said, “Alright, Xiao Xiao, little Bai is fine now. I’ll head back to school.”
“Lin Fei, I asked my brother, and you don’t have art or dical classes this noon. Please don’t leave, stay to accompany little ball and little Bai. They really like you,” Xiao Xiao said, gazing at Lin Fei with her captivating eyes.
Since the spectacular performance of Lin Fei at the association eting at Huannan University yesterday, Xiao Xiao had developed a different affection for Lin Fei.
Having Lin Fei treat little Bai was one reason, but the most important reason was that this campus belle from Huannan University wanted to advance her relationship with Lin Fei.
Now that Lin Fei was here, she wasn’t going to let him leave easily.
Lin Fei indeed had no class in the morning, and seeing the little ball so joyful, he eventually agreed to Xiao Xiao.
“Alright, then I’ll stay and accompany them,” he said.
Xiao Xiao’s face lit up with a joyful smile, saying, “Lin Fei, I’ll play a guzheng piece for you.”
