"The gate?" Li Yifei nodded upon hearing and said, "You heard that, right? And don’t forget the gate!"
"Mmm, I heard it, the gate... I’ll compensate, compensate..." Zhao Weiguo hesitated, compensating a billion for hitting soone, then for the gate... could it also be a billion? Damn, that’s another loss of two billion; with those two billion, what fancy house, villa, beauty couldn’t I buy?"
"Just find soone to replace the gate with a new one. You better keep your word in the future. If you co to provoke again, I won’t be so nice." Li Yifei said lightly.
Zhao Weiguo felt as if he was granted amnesty, almost wanting to bow down to Li Yifei several tis. He kept saying, "Thank you, Mr. Li, thank you, Miss Hu!"
"Get up now and take your people back to where you ca from. I only give you three days. If I don’t see what you promised, don’t bla for visiting Zhao Family Manor again. This ti, you probably won’t have the First Elder and the Second Elder around!" Li Yifei said.
The last sentence was too lethal, Zhao Weiguo’s heart jumped with fear, instantly recalling that day’s terror... first shaking his head then nodding, he said, "Three days... I will bring the money!"
Speaking, Zhao Weiguo supported himself to stand up, feeling his legs weak and unsteady. After barely standing firm, he turned to leave.
"Wait a mont." Li Yifei said again, Zhao Weiguo staggered, nearly falling, and turned back awkwardly. Li Yifei then said, "Zhao Clan of Southern Sky is the leader of Southern Sky, so you should set an example and do more good deeds. Although Southern Sky is prosperous, there are still many poor people. You earn so much money with nowhere to spend it, do more good deeds and accumulate blessings for your descendants. This is what I want you to relay to Old Master Zhao!"
Zhao Weiguo swallowed hard and nodded, "Alright, I will definitely relay it to my father!"
"Go!" Li Yifei ordered.
Finally, Zhao Weiguo walked away slowly, and once in the car, his body completely collapsed, and his n were also dispirited, losing the imposing manner they had when they ca. Several people who were knocked out by Li Yifei were dragged away, and the convoy quickly drove out of Hu Family Manor, speeding out tens of kiloters before Zhao Weiguo ordered everyone to stop, got everyone off the car, and having regained so composure, he was extrely aggressive towards his n.
He reprimanded them, strictly ordered everyone not to spread today’s incident, nor ntioned Li Yifei, otherwise, they’d be killed without rcy, making all his n promise, then boarded the car with a stern face, knowing in his heart that even with such threats, they might be useless.
In Hu Family Manor, Li Yifei looked at the others, and they looked back at him. Hu Yu’er, on the other hand, lowered her head. Her family strived for two generations over many years to accumulate this industry, thinking it would be a powerful force. In the eyes of even higher-level people, however, it is just a matter of wanting or not wanting, as long as the other party desires it, the Hu Family could be taken by them. And Li Yifei was even more aggressive than Zhao Family People, extorting 2.1 billion in just a few sentences. This money was accumulated by Hu Family over decades, with most of it in fixed assets; there really isn’t much liquid capital. Thinking about this, Hu Yu’er felt sowhat sad.
She couldn’t quite figure out why she felt sad. Overall, while Hu Family People were happy, she instead hung her head, tears starting to form in her eyes. Eventually, she squatted down, buried her head in her knees, and started sobbing softly.
"Let’s disperse, go and fix the gate. Soone will co for repairs in a few days!" Li Yifei motioned for everyone to leave. Hu Family People were sensible, and seeing Miss Hu squatting and crying, they felt compassion and thus bowed to Li Yifei in thanks, then turned and left.
Once everyone dispersed, Li Yifei turned around, squatted in front of Hu Yu’er, and watch her sob. Li Yifei said, "The matter is resolved, cry for a while and it’s enough. Cry too much and you’ll have nightmares tonight."
It was fine without being said, but ntioning it made her cry even harder, seemingly having not cried so hard for a long ti. Li Yifei had to reach out and rub her head, saying, "Alright, why does ntioning it make you cry harder? If you keep crying, I’ll smack your butt!"
"Go ahead and hit ! Sob, sob." Hu Yu’er continued crying.
"Hey, I don’t believe this, you asked to hit you!" Li Yifei said aloud, moving to Hu Yu’er’s side, raised his hand, and pretended to hit her: "I’m going to hit you!"
"Go ahead!" Hu Yu’er said without lifting her head.
Li Yifei paused and then slapped down on Hu Yu’er’s buttocks, even though it was just a montary touch, he could feel its elasticity and firmness.
Hu Yu’er clearly hadn’t expected Li Yifei to really hit her, and upon receiving the slap, imdiately raised her head to shout at Li Yifei, her face stained with tears, just about to speak, but suddenly a snot bubble popped out, both Li Yifei and Hu Yu’er were stunned, and she quickly turned around, covered her mouth, and ran inside the house.
Li Yifei shook his head with a smile, watching Hu Yu’er run into the bathroom.
A few minutes later, she ca out, her face peppered with water droplets, but she was no longer crying, her emotions seed to have settled, walked back to look at Li Yifei, glared at him, and said, "What gave you the right to hit ?"
"Because you cried!" said Li Yifei.
"Just because I cried, you can hit ?"
"You asked to hit you."
"Just because I asked, you hit? Then let hit you!" said Hu Yu’er unreasonably.
Li Yifei chuckled and said, "I haven’t done anything wrong."
"I haven’t done anything wrong either!" Hu Yu’er said, then lunged at Li Yifei, saying, "No way, I have to return the favor!"
"Fine, I’ll let you hit !" Li Yifei dodged a few tis, seeing Hu Yu’er’s persistent attitude, he gave up resisting, and casually stood still. Hu Yu’er raised her hand to strike, but when she saw Li Yifei wasn’t resisting, her hand wouldn’t co down. After pausing for several seconds, she sat beside Li Yifei like she had given up, muttering, "Forget it, I won’t hit you."
"What?"
"You’re my brother, if I hit you, my sister-in-law would be angry!" After saying that, sothing inside Hu Yu’er seed to shatter, she even felt she could hear the sound. Once she admitted the brotherly title, it ant she could no longer pursue him.
It’s not that she didn’t want to chase him, it’s just that when Li Yifei showed his strength for a mont, Hu Yu’er realized this man would never belong to her in this lifeti. After all, he’s too powerful, he can already threaten the Zhao Clan of Southern Sky. Although Zhao Weiguo is not Old Master Zhao, Li Yifei’s tone held contempt even for Old Master Zhao. Just this fact makes Zhao Family People not dare to get angry, which signifies Li Yifei’s formidable strength.
In recent days, Hu Yu’er always thought Li Yifei was an ordinary person, living an ordinary life, getting married, having children... But at that mont, her fantasy was shattered. The idol still remains unreachably high, unattainable. Plus, Li Yifei outright declared in front of everyone that she’s his sister. So, while washing her face, Hu Yu’er persuaded herself to accept this title.
If they can’t be lovers, if she can’t keep up with him, then... being siblings seems not a bad result.
Everyone has different thoughts, Hu Yu’er’s character has both soft and hard sides, she isn’t consistent in life or actions, but deep down, there’s a decisive force. Once determined, misunderstandings beco irrelevant.
As the saying goes, life is like chess, once a move is made, there’s no regret. The strong internal pressure Hu Yu’er felt eased a lot once she spoke out, facing Li Yifei’s slightly puzzled expression, Hu Yu’er smiled and said, "No need for that look. I’m not soone who clings desperately. With such an aweso brother backing , I can walk proudly in Southern Sky Province! It’s great. Whenever there’s trouble, I’ll just find my big brother!"
Li Yifei couldn’t help but smile and said, "You’re quite open-minded. Fine, since that’s the case, I’ll acknowledge you as my sister, but just a sister, can’t have any other thoughts."
Hu Yu’er pouted and said, "What other thoughts do you want? Let tell you, no way. Liking soone doesn’t necessarily an being together, otherwise I would’ve been sad all these years without finding you. Hmph, in fact, it’s the opposite, not only am I not sad, but my life is pretty good."
"Alright, alright, I believe you. But could you move your hand?" Li Yifei quickly said.
"Hand?"
"Yes, take a look at where you put it!" Li Yifei said, Hu Yu’er looked down and imdiately blushed, moving her hand away with a huff, then said, "I’ll go back to my room for a shower; I sll terrible. Don’t run off; I’m going to interrogate you later!"
"You’re sothing else." Li Yifei raised an eyebrow and said, as he watched Hu Yu’er stand up and walked to the elevator with a swaying little backside. It seems after adopting the brotherly identity, her feelings really changed. Li Yifei shook his head, relieved. She is not his only sister; the previous ones all beco his wives. Oh, and there’s ng Xiaofei, the cute little stewardess sister. This sister will absolutely not develop into that kind of relationship; Li Yifei can sense that everyone’s personality is different.
Twenty minutes later, Li Yifei sat across from Hu Yu’er, who had changed into a new outfit after washing up. Hu Yu’er crossed her arms like she was interrogating, saying to Li Yifei, "Tell , what exactly do you do? Are you a hero of the martial world, a legendary big shot’s child, or richer than a nation... but the third one isn’t likely, since the Zhao Clan of Southern Sky already has unimaginable wealth."
Upon hearing this, Li Yifei rolled his eyes upward, exhaled, and said, "Strictly speaking, it’s the first one!"
"The first one?" Hu Yu’er lowered her feet from the coffee table, leaned forward, raised an eyebrow, and said, "You’re a martial arts expert? But I’ve heard the Zhao Family People also practice martial arts, they’re all masters, and Old Master Zhao is a freakishly skilled master. So you’re even higher than them?"
"What does that little martial arts skill of the Zhao Family count as anyway!" Li Yifei smiled faintly, seeming contemptuous.
