Huo Qianfang only recognized Su Yang after she saw him start to walk away.
Seeing Su Yang, her eyes immediately flashed with a sharp glint. She disregarded the astonished looks from everyone, strode up to Su Yang, grabbed his arm, and angrily shouted, "What are you doing? Why are you running away as soon as you see me?"
This situation caused a buzz among the crowd, and everyone was stunned once again.
The Miss of the Huo Family, the most favored Miss of Pingnan Province, the one all the playboys feared, Huo Qianfang, was actually tussling with Su Yang? What in the world was going on?
Lian Shaoye’s face turned pale instantly, and he clenched his teeth tightly while furrowing his brows.
He had always been chasing after Huo Qianfang and regarded her as forbidden fruit, but she had never shown him any favor. For such a long time, he had maintained a considerable distance from Huo Qianfang, not even getting a chance to get close to her.
And what was happening now? Huo Qianfang had actually taken the initiative to grab Su Yang’s arm, something Lian Shaoye had never seen before. Were the two of them that close? Fınd the newest release on n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
Su Yang felt even more awkward and quickly said with a smile, "No, I... I was just going to the bathroom..."
"The bathroom?" Huo Qianfang said coldly. "Seeing me and you immediately head to the bathroom without even saying hello? Who are you trying to fool?"
"Not at all, how could I fool you!" Su Yang said with an embarrassed smile. "I just didn’t see you just now..."
"Cut the crap!" Huo Qianfang said coldly. "I’ve said that when you come to Pingbei Province, you should contact me. Why didn’t you contact me?"
"Uh, that... that..." Su Yang was dumbstruck, the normally articulate him was left speechless in front of Huo Qianfang. Truth be told, after the incident in Pingnan Province, Su Yang was genuinely afraid of Huo Qianfang.
"So, you just didn’t want to see me, right?" Huo Qianfang’s countenance grew cold, her tone carrying a hint of deep resentment, much like that of a woman lamenting in seclusion.
Her words once again confounded the crowd. What exactly was going on?
Su Yang didn’t want to see the Miss of the Huo Family, who was sought after by everyone? What was really happening here?
Someone like Lian Shaoye, who had trouble even inviting Huo Qianfang out for a meal, watched as Su Yang was actually trying to avoid her. Why was there such a huge gap between people?
Many eyes had turned to Lian Shaoye, whose complexion had become even paler, his eyes filled with venom as he looked at Su Yang. In such a situation, he had lost all his dignity, and what infuriated him the most was that Huo Qianfang’s attitude towards Su Yang was far better than towards him!
Fang Jun was also dumbfounded. He quietly moved closer to his sister Fang Jing and whispered, "Sis, you... did you just say... that she’s the Miss of the Huo Family?"
"Yes... yes, that’s... that’s her..." Fang Jing was also dumbstruck, her voice trembling as she answered.
"But, how... how does she know this guy..." Fang Jun looked at Su Yang, filled with disbelief, "And what... what’s their relationship..."
Fang Jing couldn’t give an answer. With Lian Shaoye standing right there and Huo Qianfang seemingly fond of Su Yang, what in the world was going on?
Could it be that this Su Yang was more impressive than Lian Shaoye?
But how could that be?
That’s Lian Shaoye, the eldest heir of the Lian Family, the number one family of Pingbei Province!
Actually inferior to Old Lin’s comrade-in-arms?
Fang Jing shook her head vigorously, telling herself in her heart it was impossible. She did not want to accept such a thing either; if it were true, wouldn’t that mean that Ling Laoqi amounted to nothing beside Old Lin?
"It’s not that I don’t want to see you, it’s just... there’s a small matter I haven’t finished dealing with." Su Yang said awkwardly with an apologetic smile, "I was thinking, after I finish my business, I’d visit you specially."
Huo Qianfang stared at Su Yang for a while, as if gauging the truthfulness of his words.
Lian Shaoye walked over and reached out to pull Huo Qianfang’s wrist, lightly laughing, "Qianfang, is this your friend?"
Lian Shaoye saw Huo Qianfang grab Su Yang’s arm and felt jealous in his heart, so he also boldly reached out his hand.
Huo Qianfang’s face turned cold, and she directly avoided his hand, glaring at him, "What are you doing?"
Lian Shaoye’s face turned cold at her reaction, making him lose face even more.
"Qianfang, this friend of yours is really rude to us people of the Ten Great Families!" Lian Shaoye said coldly, "Just now he was calling my grandfather by his name, and even demanded that your grandfather visit him. Humph, do the people of the Top Ten Families of Pingbei Province seem that easy to bully?"
Huo Qianfang was startled and looked at Su Yang in surprise, "What do you want with my grandfather?"
"Just a little matter..." Su Yang replied.
"If you want to see my grandfather, just tell me. What’s the need to involve them?" Huo Qianfang said, "I’ll ask him to come down in a minute!"
The people at the scene were practically going mad—after all, that was the Patriarch of the Huo Family, the head of the second most powerful family in Pingbei Province. Even Lian Shaoye, among those present, might not be deemed worthy to meet him.
And now, with just a word from Su Yang, Huo Qianfang was prepared to call the Patriarch of the Huo Family down. How much face was she giving to Su Yang?
Normally, even if Huo Qianfang was truly willing to let Su Yang meet the Patriarch, it would be Su Yang who’d have to visit the Patriarch. The idea that Su Yang would sit there like a lord, waiting for the Patriarch to come down, how could that be possible?
Huo Fangcheng stood to one side, also embarrassed, and coughed lightly, "Miss, the uncle is upstairs. If he truly wants to see the uncle, he could go visit him..."
"Visit what? Just have them all come over, that’s that!" Huo Qianfang glared and said, "Does he need to visit when seeing my grandfather?"
"Ah?" Huo Fangcheng was stunned, and everyone at the scene was on the verge of collapse. What exactly was going on? In Huo Qianfang’s mind, if Su Yang wanted to see the Patriarch of the Huo Family, should the Patriarch personally come down to greet him?
What kind of incredible abilities did Su Yang possess, being so young, that instead of him visiting the Patriarch of the Huo Family, it was the Patriarch who had to visit him? On what grounds?
Lian Shaoye was extremely irritated inside, Huo Qianfang’s clear partiality towards Su Yang made him feel even more humiliated.
"It’s Elder Huo’s business if he wants to come down. But my grandfather is not someone to be summoned and dismissed at will!" Lian Shaoye pointed at Su Yang, angrily saying, "You brat, you even dared to call my grandfather by his name outright, that’s disrespectful to my grandfather. As the successor to the Lian Family, today I will make you understand that the Patriarch of the Lian Family cannot be offended!"
Having said that, Lian Shaoye kicked the chair beside him over, his voice cold, "Just now, you were willing to fight here, so it seems you’re quite confident in your strength? Humph, I’m giving you an opportunity now. If you fight me one-on-one and you win, you can meet my grandfather. If you lose, then in front of all these people, you will kneel down and apologize!"
