The resolute man listened to Ye Xiao's words with great disdain. Then, in a flash, he charged at Ye Xiao and swung his fist directly at him. His punch was extremely fast and powerful.

However, Ye Xiao remained smiling with no sign of fear or intention to dodge, his face filled with disdain.

Boom!

A muffled sound echoed as Ye Xiao collided with the man.

It was a clash of fists.

"Ah!" With a scream, the resolute man was thrown back and heavily fell to the ground. His entire arm was crippled, and he lay motionless on the ground, unsure if he was knocked out or dead.

What?

At this moment, almost everyone was startled. No one expected Ye Xiao's punch to be so powerful.

"This..." The group from the Liu family immediately fell silent. They didn't know Ye Xiao's true strength, but everyone at the scene feared they couldn't withstand such a powerful punch. It was beyond what they could handle.

After all, they knew their companion's strength.

"Aren't you leaving?" Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow as he looked at the group.

No one from the Liu family dared to step forward, but could they just leave like this? They hesitated.

Ye Xiao flexed his wrist and said with a smile, "Seems like you don't plan on leaving today."

"Retreat!" someone shouted, and suddenly, the people from the Liu family fled one by one.

"These guys, what a bunch of fools!" Ye Xiao chuckled and then turned to look at Fang Jing and Fang Chunzhi.

At this moment, the two also looked at Ye Xiao in amazement. Although they knew Ye Xiao was strong, they hadn't expected him to be this formidable.

Fang Chunzhi reacted quickly. Now that the Liu family had left, and Liu Wenzhuo was still groaning on the ground after being beaten, she immediately went to his side.

Fang Jing, on the other hand, was still staring at Ye Xiao in surprise.

"What are you staring at? Never seen someone this handsome?" Ye Xiao waved his hand playfully in front of Fang Jing's eyes and teased.

Hearing this, Fang Jing's face turned red. She said, "How...how could that be?"

Ye Xiao stepped forward and gently touched the cheek that Liu Wenchao had slapped.

Fang Jing's face hurt so much, and Ye Xiao's gentle touch made her wince in pain.

"Does it hurt?" Ye Xiao looked at Fang Jing with some concern.

Fang Jing raised her head and said, "What do you think? If I hit you, wouldn't it hurt?"

"I don't know, try hitting me once and I'll find out," Ye Xiao laughed.

Fang Jing said, "You... You're something else, who offers their face for someone to hit?"

"Why not? I am. Hey, just wait, I'll go slash Liu Wenchao's face with a knife. How dare he hit my future wife?" Ye Xiao said, deliberately pretending to be angry.

"Enough with your nonsense. You've been saying the same thing over and over. Now everyone's gone, and you're still babbling," Fang Jing said.

Ye Xiao said, "Who said I'm babbling? I'm telling the truth. Your father plans on marrying you to me."

Fang Jing glanced at Liu Wenzhuo, who was being helped up by Fang Chunzhi, and said, "Do I know him?"

"Let's go find a place and get you some ice. Otherwise, your face will definitely swell," Ye Xiao said, dropping the playful banter with Fang Jing.

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Fang Jing felt her face flush and said, "Do I look ugly now?"

"There's a certain charm to it."

"You're talking about food, not a look!" Fang Jing said.

Ye Xiao said, "Is there a difference between people and food?"

Fang Jing was stunned and gave Ye Xiao a look, but then seriously said to him, "Anyway, I have to thank you today."

"Why so formal? I'm unmarried, you're unmarried, maybe something might happen between us in the future. Saving you now might be preparing for my future," Ye Xiao chuckled.

"Alright, I can't argue with that," Fang Jing said to Ye Xiao. "But you killed Liu Wenchao. I fear Liu Shixun won't let you go."

"Then we'll have to discuss this with Mr. Liu Wenzhuo," Ye Xiao said.

Fang Jing looked at Liu Wenzhuo, who was covered in dirt, and without a word, she followed Ye Xiao over.

"Mr. Liu, are you okay?" Ye Xiao asked Liu Wenzhuo.

Liu Wenzhuo had been badly beaten. Although not critically injured, his entire body felt like it was going to fall apart, but he couldn't show pain. He quickly said to Ye Xiao, "I'm... I'm fine."

"If you're fine, let's get out of here," Ye Xiao said.

Liu Wenzhuo immediately nodded. Seeing the injury on Fang Jing's cheek, he was surprised and asked, "Jinger, what happened to your face? Who hit you?"

"If I told you who hit me, would you avenge me?" Fang Jing said coldly.

Liu Wenzhuo instantly felt his cheeks heat up at Fang Jing's words, awkwardly not letting out a single peep.

Ye Xiao quickly broke the awkwardness.

"Let's go, let's find a place to change clothes first!" Ye Xiao said.

Liu Wenzhuo nodded and said, "I'll follow your lead."

Ye Xiao smiled slightly, then walked out of the warehouse with Fang Jing, Liu Wenzhuo, Fang Chunzhi, and others.

This warehouse was located on the edge of Shangqing District, which was also the closest place to the Liu family.

"Where are we going now?" Liu Wenzhuo asked in surprise.

Where indeed?

At this moment, this was also Ye Xiao's biggest question. Going back to the Liu family was definitely not feasible, and heading to Huafeng District? Obviously not an option either.

Suddenly, Ye Xiao thought of a safe place.

So, the four of them drove the Benz s600 out again, and as for the driver who had already died, he was naturally kicked out.

At this point, the Benz s600 was really in bad shape, but fortunately, the car's workmanship was good.

Afterward, Ye Xiao drove, Fang Jing sat in the passenger seat, while Liu Wenzhuo and Fang Chunzhi sat in the back, leaving Shangqing District.

"Where are we going now?" Liu Wenzhuo asked Ye Xiao, leaving Shangqing District.

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "The Fu family."

"Huh?" Liu Wenzhuo was surprised when he heard Ye Xiao was going to the Fu family and said, "Why go to the Fu family? We'll definitely be ridiculed going there in our current state."

"Bird City is so big, I'm afraid only the Jiang family and the Fu family are the safest places. I don't want to drag the Jiang family into this mess, so let's go to the Fu family," Ye Xiao said.

"But..." Liu Wenzhuo replied.

Fang Jing, impatiently, said, "How about you get off?"

Liu Wenzhuo dared not say more upon hearing Fang Jing's words.

Speeding all the way, heading straight for the Fu family, Ye Xiao also called Fu Donglai on the way, without specific details, just saying a few people needed to be temporarily kept at the Fu family.

Fu Donglai was naturally happy to hear this. Right now, his greatest wish was to gain full trust from Ye Xiao; that way, he could manage the Fu family with more confidence. After all, if Ye Xiao was unhappy, whether the Fu family remained the Fu family would be another matter.

Around five o'clock, the Benz s600, slightly deformed at the front, stopped near the Fu family, and Fu Donglai was already waiting at the predetermined spot.

Fu Donglai and Zhang Quan approached, seeing the deformed front of the s600, and said in surprise, "Mr. Ye, what happened here?"

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Just a little accident caused this."

Fu Donglai didn't see who was in the back seat, only noticing a woman in the front seat with her head down, and he asked in a low voice, "Brother Xiao, is this woman the one you mentioned?"

Fu Donglai's address for Ye Xiao had somehow changed to 'Brother Xiao,' clearly making the relationship seem closer.

"In your dreams, she's mine," Ye Xiao immediately said with a smile.

Fu Donglai quickly said, "Don't misunderstand, Brother Xiao, didn't you just say there were several people..."

Ye Xiao said, "Hold on a second!"

Then, Ye Xiao went to the front of the car and said to Liu Wenzhuo and Fang Chunzhi in the backseat, "Let's get out."

Liu Wenzhuo knew the state he was in and really didn't want to face Fu Donglai, as his current disheveled state would surely invite ridicule.

But they had already arrived, and Ye Xiao had spoken, so he had to comply. His chance to return to the Liu family depended on Ye Xiao.

Bracing himself, Liu Wenzhuo got out of the car.

When he got out, Fu Donglai and Zhang Quan immediately recognized it was Liu Wenzhuo, and they looked at each other in surprise.

Fu Donglai looked at Ye Xiao and said in surprise, "Brother Xiao, this..."

"You know him, right? I want them to stay at the Fu family temporarily until I come to pick up Mr. Liu to return to the Liu family," Ye Xiao said.

Fu Donglai didn't know what had happened. Just over an hour ago at the Fu family, Liu Wenzhuo was still dressed very gentlemanly. As the clan leader of the Liu family, he wasn't an ordinary person. Who could have imagined such a drastic change in appearance in just over an hour?

Fu Donglai quickly said, "Of course, no problem. Uncle Liu can stay as long as he wants, naturally. Let's not stand here; let's head back in."

Liu Wenzhuo managed a dry smile and said to Fu Donglai, "Thank you very much."

"No need to be formal. Brother Xiao's friends are friends of the Fu family. Let's go home first," Fu Donglai said.

Then, Liu Wenzhuo and Fang Chunzhi were escorted by several Fu family guards to the Fu residence, while Fang Jing stayed in the car due to her facial injuries.

"Brother Xiao, what happened?" Fu Donglai asked Ye Xiao with some surprise.

Ye Xiao replied, "There's been infighting in the Liu family. With these two staying here, just take good care of them. No matter who comes asking for them, just firmly deny it. Got it?"
