Chapter 734 Her own person

Zhao Ya'Er felt like God had finally heard her plead for help and sent an angel to help her. However, due to her shaken state, she could not answer him and nods her head.

Seeing how frightened she is, Xu Long felt a sharp stab in his chest. He looks back at Wei Hongyi with dark eyes.

He had gone back inside the restaurant for no longer than five minutes. He didn't bring her because the things he had to ask and hear from the elderly man were confidential.

While he was listening, the elderly man suddenly changed the topic and said to him.

"Xu Long, someone snatched your girlfriend."

It was then that he turned around and saw Zhao Ya'Er being dragged away by Wei Hongyi.

If it weren't for the restaurant designed with soundproof windows, he would have long heard her first scream for help.

When he noticed how pale she looked, he dropped everything and rush out to help her.

At first, he planned to talk things out like civilized people. However, hearing the way Wei Hongyi mocking Zhao Ya'Er, an amount of anger he never had before arose inside him.

He may not come from a prominent family like Wei Hongyi, but that didn't mean he will just turn a blind eye and let the man belittle a woman.

With eyes on the man with a bloody nose due to his punch, Xu Long sighs inside. If the old man did not alert him, Zhao Ya'Er would have been taken away right under his nose.

Thinking about all the suffering she had to go through, he clenches his fists to suppress his anger.

Zhao Ya'Er couldn't see his expression, but she could sense that he was angry for her. However, she was afraid of him getting into trouble due to her.

She gently tugs him by the sleeve of his coat and leans forward to whisper.

"Liu Shan, I'm fine. Let's leave."

Seeing her become so close to the assistant, Wei Hongyi scoffs a sneer in jealousy. He straightens his spine and raises his chin like he was a noble ruler looking down on Xu Long.

"Assistant Xu, I see that my woman is quite fond of you. However, I will ignore this since I have high respect for your boss. So scram while I am still giving you a chance."

Xu Long was unfazed by the man's words. He pouts his lip as if thinking hard about what to do before shrugging his shoulders.

"But I don't need that chance."

The space between his eyebrows creases into three lines when he sees that Wei Hongyi's eyes were glued to Zhao Ya'Er. He takes a small step to the side and blocks her from view.

"Mr. Wei, from my understanding, Zhao Ya'Er, is a woman. However, she isn't your woman."

Wei Hongyi burst into sarcastic laughter at Xu Long. They are both men, aren't they? From how he was raised, men are born to be more dominant than women.

However, to hear Xu Long say that Zhao Ya'Er is not his woman, what kind of joke is this?

He eyes the assistant from head to toe before scoffing at the way Xu Long is dressed.

"I don't think you understand anything. Women exist to serve us, men, in any way we want. They are born to satisfy our personal desires and we can do whatever we want with them."

He glances behind Xu Long and could see the top of Zhao Ya'Er's head. He sneers and looks back at the assistant.

"Since you're saying that she isn't my woman, then is she yours?"

His tone was full of sarcasm, but it stabbed Zhao Ya'Er in the heart. The moment she came to know the real Wei Hongyi, she realized that in his eyes, women will always be beneath men.

No matter how strong a woman is, he (Wei Hongyi) will consider them as a plaything to fill his lust.

Xu Long sighs in pity at the man in front of him. He couldn't help but want to cut open the man's head to see what he (Wei Hongyi) has learned in life.

Not only that, at times like this, he wishes so badly that his lady boss was here. If she heard this nonsense from Wei Hongyi, without a doubt she would have crushed the man's skull open.

However, knowing that these two things were only his wishful thinking, he shakes his head.

"She is not my woman, but her own person."

Zhao Ya'Er's eyes tremble with her heart. She looks up at Xu Long and could feel the warmth he was giving off. It was a warm feeling that made one feel secured and protected. The same kind of feeling similar to Yue Ling.

Oblivious to her inner feelings towards him, Xu Long's words continue.

"An anonymous person once said, 'A real man never hurts a woman. Be very careful when you make a woman cry because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib. Not from his feet to be walked on and not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal. Under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved'."

His words fell as he pats his heart like he was showing Wei Hongyi where a person's heart is. He lowers his hand and slightly tilts his head to the side.

"With the way you think, all I see is a coward. A coward who only knows how to bully the weak."

He raises his left hand and points with his index finger at Wei Hongyi.

"And with the way you see women, you should be ashamed of yourself. No, praise to buddha I weren't your mother because if I were your mother, I would be ashamed of you."

Wei Hongyi was stupefied at the fact that Xu Long had quoted the longest quote he has ever heard. However, hearing the assistant's last words, his face turned red in fury.

"Shut up—!!!"

He doesn't waste any more time and lunges forward with his fist in aim for Xu Long's face.

However, seeing his move from a thousand miles away, Xu Long sighs inside.

He remained in place and once Wei Hongyi's fist was inches from him, his left-hand grabs the man's wrist. With a slight tug, he twists Wei Hongyi's arms but not to the point of breaking it.

"Tsk, tsk."

He clicks his tongue and tightens his hold.

"No wonder you pry on the weak. Your wrist is as slim as a woman's. Are you sure you're not a transgender?"

"Ahh! Fucken bastard, let go of my hand!"

Wei Hongyi shrill in pain. He swore, if Xu Long were to twist his arm just a little more, his bones would break within seconds.

However, angry and being humiliated, he swung his other arm to punch Xu Long.

Unfortunately, to his disappointment, the person he is facing may have a soft heart, but he is someone easy to defeat.

Xu Long blocks the punch by grabbing hold of Wei Hongyi's wrist. He looks down at the man with pity and sighs.

"You leave me no other choice."

His head tilts back then using enough strength, he leans forward again.

"Meet my iron forehead!"

*Clunk--!

Both their foreheads slam hard against one another. However, while Xu Long remained unfazed by the hit, Wei Hongyi was the opposite.

Stars start to circle around him until they turned into birds. His eyes rolled back until they were white and his head tilts back as he loses consciousness.

Xu Long let's go of Wei Hongyi's wrists and watch as his (Wei Hongyi) body slumps onto the ground. He sneers at how weak this man is and clicks his tongue.

"Weak."
