Chapter 394: Chapter 404: Don’t Want to Be Beaten and Still Not Leaving

Su Huai’an glanced sideways at him, “You should save that statement for someone else, it’s useless saying it in front of us. I advise you to spend this time checking on Hai Lan instead! Just now, Yang Wenying captured Hai Lan. It won’t sound good for the prominent Miss of the Hai Family, the daughter-in-law of the Meng Family, to be locked up in the Detention Room.”

Meng Ping’s face drastically changed.

“It seems you’re not aware of what just happened!”

“Hai Lan is just wishful thinking between her and your aunt. What does it have to do with me?” Meng Ping revealed a heartless sneer, “I’ve never been fond of Hai Lan. I believe you know that.”

“Yes! I know!” Su Huai’an nodded solemnly, “But some things aren’t as simple as you wanting them to be.” This statement was sharply precise, even reflecting the love story of President Meng Xingzhi in the past.

Meng Ping’s face drastically changed again, his gaze towards Su Huai’an becoming very gloomy. “They say every man in the Su Family is cunning like a fox, and it seems to be true.”

“Wrong! I’m just trying to protect my family.” The people of Su Family could go to any lengths for the sake of their family, for the sake of affection.

The argument between the two men made Lu Dabao quite distressed. In the room, Sheng Ning was knitting woolen yarn like she was possessed, her hands moving so fast that they were blistered, yet she still wouldn’t stop.

No matter what she said to her, there was no response. Seeing this continue, Lu Dabao was afraid she couldn’t hold the door by herself.

She was terrified something might happen to Sheng Ning, and she would be like a headless fly again. Chen Huaying had gone out to find someone and hadn’t returned for so long. With two Gate Gods by the door, she dared not leave.

“Su Huai’an, Meng Ping, both of you leave.” Lu Dabao yelled, “Standing here like Gate Gods, just seeing you irritates me.”

“Dabao, move aside!”

“Dabao, don’t force my hand.”

Both exuded strong auras, and Lu Dabao, trembling, pondered whether to clear the way, when suddenly a deep voice sounded not far away.

“What are you trying to do?” Xu Qigang approached step by step with an unmatched aura. His tall stature quickly covered the distance to the trio.

Lu Dabao’s eyes lit up, nearly jumping for joy.

Meng Ping looked utterly defeated—he had calculated to take advantage while the King Yan was away. He hadn’t expected him to be so quick.

“Captain Xu!” Su Huai’an greeted.

Xu Qigang, expressionless, returned the greeting, then without a word, cracked his wrists. His knuckles snapped loudly.

“Meng Ping, I haven’t seen you for a while. Are you itching for a fight?” Xu Qigang’s voice carried a weight as heavy as a thousand pounds, oppressively suffocating.

Seeing Xu Qigang always gave Meng Ping a headache, always making him want to hide. Whenever he caused trouble or was caught harassing female colleagues, he could never escape a beating.

This time, even if King Yan beat him, he wouldn’t back down.

“King Yan, you can’t hit me!” Meng Ping immediately took a defensive stance.

“Don’t want to be hit? Then leave.”

“Hmph! Fine, I’ll leave!” Knowing he stood no chance as soon as King Yan appeared, Meng Ping briskly turned and left.

Before leaving, he turned back to look at Xu Qigang one last time, declaring, “I won’t give up.”

Xu Qigang, lips pursed, ignored him completely and turned to look at Su Huai’an.

“Professor Su, may I ask if you can leave now?”

“She is my Su family…”
