Chapter 135: Didn't You Say No Violence?
"That's more like it. We don't want to cause any trouble either." Huang Dayong was overjoyed when his sister finally understood.
But Yang Hao had a look of despair. Looking at Huang Qiaoqiao, he said, "Qiaoqiao, I... I..."
He didn't know what else to say.
In this small place, the Gong Family was like a mountain in everyone's hearts, so oppressive it left people breathless.
Reality is always cruel.
Yang Changjin and Li Guiju opened their mouths but said nothing, just looking at their son with heartache.
Yang Wen was somewhat reluctant, but she grew up here. Having attended high school in the county town, she'd heard all sorts of rumors about the Gong Family, so despite her reluctance, she dared not say more.
Her brother was indeed good at fighting.
And her sister-in-law really did have money.
But the Gong Family dominated here, genuine local tyrants.
As the saying goes, even a strong dragon does not suppress a local snake. Even if the sister-in-law were a dragon that had crossed the river, she would hardly be able to compete with the Gong Family here.
"Brother, I'll go back with you. Call them quickly so they don't come looking for trouble," Huang Qiaoqiao said to her brother.
Huang Dayong nodded, pulled out his cell phone, and said, "Alright, you go with me. I will call as soon as we leave."
Tears streaming down her face, Huang Qiaoqiao looked back at Yang Hao, as if it were a final farewell.
Qin Yanyang was alarmed.
She had thought that Huang Qiaoqiao going back with her brother was not a problem. After all, she could just make a phone call later, believing that the Gong Family would let the Huangs break off the engagement.
But she hadn't expected Huang Qiaoqiao to have such a fierce disposition, and from that look she had given Yang Hao, Qin Yanyang saw a farewell.
It was the thought of seeking death.
Qin Yanyang was both shocked and impressed, thinking that such passionate commitment to love was too rare in these times.
She couldn't help but think of herself.
If she truly developed feelings for Yang Fei in the future and wished to be with him, the difficulties she faced would be even greater.
Would she be able to make such a resolute decision like Huang Qiaoqiao?
Initially, Qin Yanyang had interfered in this matter because of Yang Hao's earlier call, but now, she truly felt that Huang Qiaoqiao was admirable. She didn't want to see such pure and beautiful love be destroyed.
She grabbed Huang Qiaoqiao's hand and gave her a firm look, "It's not as bad as you think. As long as you and Yang Hao truly love each other, no one can tear you apart."
Huang Qiaoqiao looked at Qin Yanyang. They had just met, didn't know each other previously, and she had only just heard from Yang Wen how incredible Qin Yanyang was, but having never seen it herself and considering the Gong Family's overwhelming presence, she did not believe Qin Yanyang could solve this problem.
With tearful eyes, Huang Qiaoqiao shook her head and said, "Thank you, I know you and Yang Hao mean well, but... but you can't afford to mess with the Gong Family."
Yang Fei came over, smiling reassuringly, "Don't worry. As long as you sincerely want a life with my brother, no one can force you two apart. As for the so-called Gong Family, with big brother here, it's no problem."
Seeing Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang seemingly unconcerned about the Gong Family, Huang Qiaoqiao became somewhat anxious, "You're not local. You don't know how formidable the Gong Family is."
Yang Fei laughed, "No matter how formidable, they can't force a marriage."
However, Qin Yanyang, noticing that everyone present didn't believe they could handle the Gong Family, said to Yang Fei, "Don't be rash later. Your uncle's family and the Huang Family both need to continue living here. If you want to perfectly resolve this situation, it's not something violence can achieve. Trust me."
Seeing her point, Yang Fei asked, "Do you have a plan?" Text acquired from M|V|LEMP&YR.
Qin Yanyang smiled and said, "Here in Xiangxi State, I know a friend who should be able to handle it. Don't worry, I'll make a call first."
Buzz... buzzing...
Just then, a harsh sound of an engine roaring approached.
Hearing this, Huang Dayong's eyes lit up as he pointed at the Yangs and said, "Young Master Gong and his crew have arrived, it's too late for regrets now."
Many villagers backed away in fear.
Yang Changjin and Li Guiju also turned pale, trembling with fear.
Yang Wen was also very nervous; she felt calmer as she clutched Yang Fei's jacket.
Huang Dayong had already gone out to meet them.
Soon, with a fawning expression on his face, he walked in with a man in his mid-twenties, like a scared dog.
The man was chubby, with a face full of flesh, and walked normally, but a closer look revealed something was off.
Behind them, a group of tall, burly bodyguards in black shirts followed.
The villagers, who had only seen such a scene on TV, were now facing it directly, and they all felt an immense oppression, retreating in fear.
"Qiaoqiao, your family has already accepted my betrothal gifts, so we are fiancés now, yet you secretly ran to another man's house. Have you ever considered my feelings?"
The plump young man had a fierce look on his face as he stared at Huang Qiaoqiao.
His name was Gong Yuping, the only son of the wealthiest man in the county town, Gong Daqian.
Huang Qiaoqiao was startled, but she immediately bit her lip, looked up at the man, and said, "I... I will go with you, just don't make it difficult for the Yang Family."
Laughing with a twisted smile, Gong Daqian suddenly looked up at Yang Hao and said, "Kid, are you trying to elope with my fiancée? Bold, daring to mess with a woman promised to me, Gong Yuping."
While speaking, he nodded his head and then pointed at Yang Hao, "Break one of his legs, make him kneel and repent!"
No sooner had he spoken than two tall, burly bodyguards menacingly approached Yang Hao.
Qin Yanyang slightly frowned and said, "Wait a minute."
Gong Yuping was startled and his gaze fell on Qin Yanyang's face, leaving him momentarily stunned.
Then, shaking off his daze with a sinister grin, he said, "Wow, the backwaters here really do have some scenic beauties, growing girls more radiant one than the other, haha, beauty, what's your name, are you married yet?"
Qin Yanyang's brows furrowed and a hint of disgust flashed through her eyes.
She was beautiful, and many had flirted with her, watched by many men with adoring eyes.
She could accept those.
But Gong Yuping's current invasive gaze and his frivolous words were extremely displeasing to her.
She turned to look at Yang Fei and blinked, "Your wife is being harassed."
Yang Fei immediately understood her hint, "Didn't you say no violence?"
Qin Yanyang was speechless.
Yang Fei chuckled, stepped forward to block Gong Yuping's view, and said, "My wife is upset, you owe her an apology."
With a pained expression, Gong Yuping cursed, "Damn, such a beautiful woman messed up by a swine, I am very unhappy, break his legs too."
"Smack!"
Yang Fei raised his hand and slapped Gong Yuping across the face.
The at least 200-pound plump body of Gong Yuping spun around, stars swirling before his eyes.
"Damn, dare to lay hands on Young Master Gong, you're courting death!"
"Take him down!"
The bodyguards brought by Gong Yuping were not lacking in quality, seeing their boss struck, they immediately rushed towards Yang Fei.
Screams erupted.
Father and son, Yang Changjin and Yang Hao's eyes reddened, ready to grab weapons and help.
However, they were soon stunned.
All they heard were continuous cries of pain as the burly bodyguards charging at Yang Fei were thrown out one by one, wailing and grabbing their shins.
In less than a blink, there were seven or eight people lying on the ground, all howling in pain.
Huang Dayong and the other men from Huang Village couldn't help but inhale sharply, their eyes wide in shock.
They knew Yang Fei was somewhat capable of fighting since he had shown some skills before.
But they never expected Yang Fei to be this capable.
