Chapter 657: Chapter 657: Will Not Let it Rest_1 Chapter 657: Chapter 657: Will Not Let it Rest_1 Because she hadn’t informed him before she came, she kept him in the dark about her previous few calls, and she had gone to Xin Yuan to discuss customizing dresses with Mr. Wu. Hence, calls from Huo Beijiang were not responded to by her. By the time she called him back after returning from the provincial capital to her home, a guard informed her that he had gone to participate in military exercises.
The two had not been in touch for a month.
Before coming, she simply decided not to inform him, for fear of him going out of his way to make arrangements for her.
Dai Yifan glanced at the car passing by and gave Nan Fei a meaningful look, a vague smile on his lips, saying nothing more.
However, as he remained silent, Dai Jinhai looked displeased and complained, “Isn’t that Huo Beijiang, the one from the Huo Family who grew up abroad?”
“Humph! He’s the only one in this yard who would overtake others’ cars.”
Nan Fei felt extremely awkward listening to this.
“Huo Beijiang! Asshole!” Jiang Yang was very satisfied with his newly acquired swear words. Every time the name ‘Huo’ was spoken, he would conjure memories of a person who had once bullied him.
“Sister Nan Fei.” Jiang Yang took Nan Fei’s hand and whispered again, “Huo Beijiang is an Asshole!” His clear and bright eyes sparkled even more when he cursed Huo Beijiang.
Nan Fei laughed, covering her mouth, and secretly gave her brother a thumbs up.
Upon receiving praise from his sister, the little fellow blushed more brightly. He wanted to prop up his chin with his hand out of habit, but it wasn’t easy to do so in the car, so he eventually gave up.
Nan Fei looked at him and couldn’t help laughing.
Who says her brother is dumb? He’s clearly very clever. Look! He even knows that Huo Beijiang is a big asshole!
Dai Jinhai was taken aback, “Apprentice, do you know Huo Beijiang?”
“Er…” Nan Fei realized that she hadn’t informed her master yet! So, she briefly explained how she had known Huo Beijiang since childhood and how their grandmothers had arranged their marriage. However, she omitted the fact that the two of them were already legally married.
Not even Dai Yifan had expected that Nan Fei was the allegedly ugly and rustic country girl betrothed to Huo Beijiang in his stories. As he drove, he occasionally gave her a strange look.
“So it was you.” Dai Jinhai couldn’t help but laugh, “Apprentice, I’ve heard quite a few things about Huo Beijiang since I got back. This man is a big troublemaker. Since you’re just his betrothed, it would be better to stay away from him.”
“You probably don’t know!” Dai Jinhai spoke his mind, “After Elder Leader Huo’s passing, he arranged for a marriage between Huo Beijiang and the young lady from the Lu Family. However, just a month ago, Huo Beijiang disregarded the relationship between the two families and Elder Leader Huo’s dying wish, and called off the engagement in a radical manner.”
“Because of this, the Lu Family is extremely resentful. Huo Beijiang is in continuous trouble. If the Lu Family finds out that you’re his fiancee, there’s an excellent chance that they’ll involve you, too.”
Dai Yifan chimed in: “I know Lu Dongxin. She has a strong personality and can’t bear any obstacles. The breakup has hit her hard. Once she has a grudge, she won’t rest until it’s settled.”
A powerful figure from childhood, she would never allow her life to be anything less than perfect.
Nan Fei frowned in worry and sweetness. He’d never let her down, reassuring her that he would break off the engagement. Since he had kept his promise, what did she have to fear?
If people are offended, they are offended! What’s the point of a life full of fear, afraid of offending this person, afraid of offending that person?
