Chapter 857: You Don't Dare to Accept True Feelings
Then, Yang Fei turned his gaze to Li Xuanyu and said, "Sister Xuanyu, what about you?"
Li Xuanyu was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "You want to ask if I have something to talk to you about, right?"
Yang Fei nodded.
Li Xuanyu sighed and said, "My problem is much bigger, you can't make any decisions."
Yang Fei's eyebrows darkened, and he said speechless, "Sister Xuanyu, if you tease me like this, I don't want to chat with you."
Li Xuanyu giggled, "I am speaking the truth. You can't even make decisions on such small matters like Monica's, and still have to discuss with your wife. My matter is much larger because both our country's conglomerates and I want to restore our nation. For such a big ambition, do you think you can make the decision?"
Yang Fei coughed dryly upon hearing this, feeling ashamed, and said, "Well, Sister Xuanyu, I really can't make such a big decision, and I don't think my wife can help you either."
Li Xuanyu snorted, "You are underestimating your wife's current influence. If she insists on helping us restore Korea, just one word could put immense pressure on Japan. If she is willing to deploy troops and show some strength, the possibility of restoring our nation is huge."
Yang Fei chuckled upon hearing that, "It can't be that simple, right?"
Li Xuanyu, taking it for granted, said, "It's really that simple."
Yang Fei shook his head, "Even if Japan withdraws from your country, would you dare to go back?"
Li Xuanyu was instantly speechless.
Indeed.
In this current era, it's truly unfriendly to new elite groups like theirs.
Since all three realms Martial Artists have stepped into society, the status of ordinary citizens indeed might decline slightly, but throughout history, common folks have always been at the bottom, suffering greatly. They hardly felt much difference.
But it's different for wealthy ordinary people.
They are guilty of holding treasures beyond their power.
Without strong martial protection to safeguard their wealth and status, they will become targets for powerful martial artists' plundering.
So, as Yang Fei said, even if Japan withdraws from Korea, these tycoon families wouldn't dare to return easily.
Once they return, no one knows whether suddenly some strong figures will appear beside their bed while they're asleep, frightening them awake and softly discussing with them the distribution of their assets and rights originally belonging to themselves.
Being a puppet isn't frightening, what's frightening is being a puppet without freedom and dignity.
Moreover, under this unique environment where the New Era has just started, will those people simply obliterate them, violently seize and replace them?
Then it wouldn't be as simple as being a puppet but would be losing one's head.
People from Korea's Chaebol Families have been wealthy their whole lives, enjoying life all along. Being a puppet is negligible, but being replaced, or even losing their heads, terrifies them greatly.
Thinking of this, Li Xuanyu spoke worriedly, "Are you saying we can never go back for life?"
Yang Fei thought for a moment and said, "Sister Xuanyu, you can treat Divine Continent as your home, isn't that good?"
Li Xuanyu's heart trembled, her eyes twinkling as she stared at Yang Fei and said, "Do you mean to marry me?"
Yang Fei was startled, hastily said, "No, I…"
Li Xuanyu saw his big reaction and angrily said, "I was the one who was with you first, wasn't I? Back then, there were no issues with Qin Yanyang and Tong Yunshu yet, but I couldn't bear to make a move and let them take you away. Now, I don't intend to drive them away, just want to join in, and you won't agree?"
Yang Fei was dumbfounded.
So bold?
And outsiders are present too.
However, it sounds exciting.
Sister Xuanyu really can't let go of him, so as long as he agrees, with a beckoning gesture, a new member could be added to his harem?
Monica was also stunned by Li Xuanyu's words, unable to speak.
She had been with Monica lately, and their relationship has rapidly progressed.
Li Xuanyu had talked a lot about her past with Yang Fei, so Monica knew Li Xuanyu liked Yang Fei, but she didn't expect Li Xuanyu to be so bold, wanting to compete for Yang Fei's affection.
She looked at Yang Fei, confused about what charm this Eastern man had, making women like Qin Yanyang and Li Xuanyu fight over him.
Monica was unfamiliar with Tong Yunshu and didn't understand her, but she knew much about Li Xuanyu and Qin Yanyang. Privately, she deeply admired these two remarkable women.
Both women were willing to compromise themselves for Yang Fei, being more open than Westerners, willing to follow Yang Fei together, which seemed quite bizarre.
Li Xuanyu's eyes reddened, seemingly speaking of her grievances, as she looked at Yang Fei and continued, "Staying here only reminds me of all the bits and pieces with you in the past, remembering the first time I met you, first fell in love, but you ignored my love, returned home and got along with those two women, Qin Yanyang and Tong Yunshu. So, are you rejecting me? Fine, I will leave.
But now, outside of Divine Continent, the world isn't safe for me. I have my own nation, my own hometown, so I want to return. If you hold any affection for me, please help me return home."
The more Yang Fei listened, the more wrong it felt.
Yet Li Xuanyu, with tearful pitiful appearance, left him speechless to refuse.
Indeed, for the sentiment shared with the Madman Organization previously, he ought to help her.
He sighed, gently said, "Alright, Sister Xuanyu, stop acting in front of me. You want to restore your nation, I really can't help you."
"You can." Li Xuanyu said.
"In Divine Continent, I'm merely holding a nominal position in the Military Department, without any real power; I truly can't help you. Your matter is too big." Yang Fei candidly said.
Li Xuanyu shook her head and said, "No, I don't want you to help me restore the nation, but to help me grow strong, help the elite of our Chaebol Family grow strong, so in the future when we restore the nation and return, we have a certain ability to protect ourselves, so we can securely return home."
"Ah?"
Yang Fei was taken aback, staring blankly at Li Xuanyu, finally broke into a wry smile, "So, Sister Xuanyu, you've also started using these deceptive tactics, only eyeing my ability to produce Genetic Liquid Medicine?"
Li Xuanyu's heart ached, remorsefully said, "I also want to have sincere feelings with you, but you don't have the courage, what can I do? I can't, like Qin Yanyang and Tong Yunshu, receive your true care and affection, so I can only use some means to gain your sympathy and pity, then figure out ways to grow stronger and protect myself."
Ugh!
Wow, the ball got kicked back again.
Yang Fei was momentarily speechless.
Indeed.
She has revealed her fondness, wanting to join his harem, and then receive his open help and assistance, but it's him who dare not accept. This chapter was made possible by the MV_LEMPYR community.
Now she can only play the old emotional card, hoping to gain his help and care, which isn't wrong, even seems to be forced by circumstances, making it even harder for him to refuse.
If he refuses, isn't he being ungrateful, heartless?
Damn, in the end, it's all about seeking benefits from me.
Seems like a man has to be strong.
A common man has to be wealthy, so women will circle around him.
A Martial Artist like him must be strong, have special abilities, and then not just Qin Yanyang, but also Tong Yunshu, Li Xuanyu, and even the Cavendish family's little princess will obediently circle around him.
Love and sincerity.
Yes.
But when you have nothing, as time goes by, those things will also disappear.
Thinking this, Yang Fei became increasingly justified in his desire for a harem.
Throughout the ages, which hero wasn't surrounded by countless beauties?
Only incapable men speak devotedly.
Capable of possessing love from countless beauties, he doesn't believe any man with normal sexual orientation would refuse.
"Yang Fei, will you help me?" Li Xuanyu looked at Yang Fei pitifully and asked.
