Chapter 232: How Dare You?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Fang Qiong and the other guests finally got into the garden, Tang Yifei had already regained her former appearance. She was walking beside Chen Fan, carrying on a seemingly amicable conversation with him.
However, those who paid attention to Tang Yifei would find out her body was still shaking slightly. Every time she looked to Chen Fan, her eyes were filled with marvel and admiration.
Chen Fan’s power had far exceeded Tang Yifei’s imagination.
He was not only able to kill ten martial artists in less than a minute, but also able to dictate her fate using the Yi Wood Spirit Qi. What he did was the stuff of legends. He could either kill or save her on a whim. However powerful and influential she was, she couldn’t do anything should he decide to turn her into a vegetable.
“Sister Yifei, what were you doing earlier?” Fang Qiong asked.
“Oh, it was nothing. I and Mr. Chen had run into a little problem, but it’s all good now.” Tang Yifei brushed a strand of loose hair off her forehead and managed a smile.
Sensing Tang Yifei’s hesitation, Fang Qiong decided to leave it at that. She then looked to Chen Fan and was greeted by Chen Fan’s warm and relaxed smile. Seeing Chen Fan was unharmed, Fang Qiong felt a heavyweight was off her mind.
However, the sight had caught Shen Junwen by surprise and stunned him.
What the h.e.l.l was going on? Why was Chen Fan talking so amicably with Tang Yifei? Shouldn’t they be at each other’s throats? Wasn’t that gunfire he had just heard?
He was the renowned Master Chen of Jiang Bei, while she was the daughter of the local tyc.o.o.n in Jiang Nan Province. They should be rivals, not friends.
Little did he know that Tang Yifei had already been completely subjugated by Chen Fan, mind and body. She would never think of fighting against Chen Fan again.
“Chen Fan.”
Shen Junwen squeezed out a smile and tried to keep calm after seeing Chen Fan was coming toward him. Before he could finish his greeting, Chen Fan slapped him on the face and the force staggered him.
“How dare you?”
Shen Junwen covered his face and shouted in disbelief.
Chen Fan didn’t use even one percent of his power, otherwise, the slap would have outright killed Shen Junwen. However, the insult didn’t sit well with Shen Junwen. He was the heir to the Wan Rong Group, the son of the richest man in Jiang Bei. Not even his parents had ever slapped him like this, much less anyone else.
He rounded his eyes in fury as a poisonous flame danced in his pupils. He looked as if he wanted to kill Chen Fan there and then.
“I can not only slap you but also kill you. Do you want to try death?”
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes as a cold light flashed within.
Shen Junwen was taken aback at first, and then he quickly reminded himself that the seemingly ordinary boy was not a student from Si Shui County, but the renowned Master Chen of Jiang Bei. Even his father was concerned that Master Chen would show up at their doorstep and slaughter the entire household.
So thinking, a wave of terror came over him.
“Tang Yifei must have snitched on me, and told Chen Fan about our plot. Is the Tang family Chen Fan’s ally now?”
As Shen Junwen’s mind raced, he forgot to answer Chen Fan’s question.
“Chen Fan, what have you done?”
As development finally setting in, Song Zhe and the others shouted hotly: “Who do you think you are? How dare you slap Junwen? ”
Song Zhe felt a pang of disbelief. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw Chen Fan’s hand landed on Shen Junwen’s face. He was the son of Shen Roufen, slapping him was a public insult to the entire Shen family.
Even Fang Qiong seemed distraught by the situation.
She knew Shen Junwen well. Despite his polite public appearance, he was vengful and spiteful toward his enemies. He had gained a seat at Wan Rong Group’s board partly because of his ruthless methods. If the Sheng family decided to avenge the humiliation, Chen Fan might not be able to handle it.
She looked to Tang Yifei anxiously, hoping Sister Yifei would able to quell Shen Junwen’s anger.
To her surprise, she watched as Tang Yifei furrowed her brows and castigated Sheng Junwen: “Shut up! Who gave you the audacity to insult Mr. Chen?”
“Sister Tang?”
Song Zhe was set back on his heels by Sister Tang’s sudden outburst. None of them could understand why Tang Yifei was on Chen Fan’s side. Did Chen Fan win over Tang Yifei in that a few private minutes they spent in the garden? No… not likely. Chen Fan was not even Tang Yifei’s type.
“Shen Junwen, the Tang family will always remember what you have done. Now get the h.e.l.l out of here.”
Tang Yifei gave Shen Junwen a cold stare and then said.
Shen Junwen picked himself up and left the garden without saying a word. Chen Fan didn’t stop him and watched indifferently as Shen Junwen exited the garden. Shen Junwen didn’t change at all from his past life, however, instead of plotting against Chen Fan by himself, he tried to kill him with a borrowed sword.
