Lan Cai looked at the man before her, the one she had longed for day and night, her eyes slightly red.

Lan Shili's gaze shifted between Li Xiaoyao and Lan Cai, silently wondering, who was this man? How did he come to know Lan Cai?

"Boy, which family are you from?" Zheng Bihui frowned and said, "Cai'er is to become my daughter-in-law, and we won't allow strangers to covet her."

"Cai'er is my woman, she was, she is, and she will be," Li Xiaoyao said, shocking everyone present.

All were stunned by his words, wondering what kind of man he could be to speak so boldly, even in the face of the Zheng Family Head.

"Hmph! Arrogant fool!" Zheng Bihui waved his hand grandly and said to the security guards in the distance, "This boy is disrupting the order of the event, take him away."

The security guards knew who Zheng Bihui was but didn't recognize Li Xiaoyao, so they stepped forward, reaching out to grab him.

The senior brother, who had been paying attention to the situation, said, "Master, do you need me to step in?"

Liu Chengxiang waved his hand and said, "If he can't even handle this little issue, it would be embarrassing to let others know he's an honorary elder of Xuan Sect."

"Stop!"

Xiao Ya shouted sharply, and the security guards immediately stopped and stood aside.

Today, every person gathered here held some influence in Jindu, even the least significant among them was not someone these security guards could afford to provoke.

Zheng Bihui looked somewhat angry and said, "Xiao family's young miss, this matter does not concern you, do not interfere."

Xiao Ya stepped forward, standing beside Li Xiaoyao, and said, "Mr. Li is a distinguished guest of the Xiao family. To disrespect Mr. Li is to disrespect the Xiao family. Do you still think it has nothing to do with me?"

"A distinguished guest of the Xiao family?"

The crowd murmured in surprise.

Throughout it all, Li Xiaoyao had not revealed his identity.

Xiao Ya's mention of a distinguished guest revealed a bit more about his status.

If the Xiao family of Jindu regarded him as a distinguished guest and would confront the Zheng family head-on, Li Xiaoyao's status must not be insignificant.

Zheng Bihui too was surprised, but not apprehensive.

From his accent, Li Xiaoyao was not from Jindu; even as a distinguished guest of the Xiao family, he likely had no political ties.

If it was only wealth, it was not enough for Zheng Bihui to take too seriously.

"Director Lan, who is this man?" Zheng Bihui turned the problem over to Lan Shili.

Lan Shili had no idea, but he understood that if this matter was not resolved today, it might displease Zheng Bihui, potentially jeopardizing the marriage alliance between the Zheng and Lan families.

"Cai'er, ask your friend to leave quickly, or don't blame me for being rude," he said.

Lan Cai, still reveling in the unexpected joy of Li Xiaoyao's sudden arrival, now came back to her senses and said firmly, "Xiaoyao is right, I am his woman."

"Lan Cai!" Lan Shili roared in fury, his thick eyebrows dancing, "Do you know what you're saying?"

Li Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow and snapped, "Shut up!" Then he took Lan Cai's hand and stood with her, facing an angry Lan Shili, "My woman, no one is qualified to scold her."

"Rubbish!" Lan Shili's tall frame shook slightly with rage.

This man who had appeared out of nowhere dared to speak to him in such a tone.

What's more, Lan Cai, a member of his Lan family, was actually standing in front of this man.

"Director Lan, if you can't provide a satisfactory resolution to today's events, my son will not marry a woman who has been with another man." Aside from Lan Shili, the most enraged was Zheng Bihui.

Lan Shili was feeling somewhat irritated. What does it mean to call someone 'another's used woman'? Even if the women of my Lan Family are lacking, it's not your place to speak of them that way.

However, the situation at hand was unique, and he had no time to argue with Zheng Bihui over the matter of titles.

"Zheng Fengfeng!" Li Xiaoyao now turned his attention to the Zheng Family, his gaze coldly fixed on Zheng Fengfeng, and he suddenly bellowed, "Where is Yang Tianren?"

Zheng Bihui shouted angrily, "What are you to dare address Elder Yang by his name directly?"

"Noise!" Li Xiaoyao had long found this old man annoying, not only for shouting at him but for also insulting Lan Cai.

"Slap!" With an uplifted hand, a resounding slap echoed unmistakably, executed swiftly and decisively.

Zheng Bihui's body tilted, he staggered backward several steps, and then crashed to the ground.

If Li Xiaoyao kicking Lan Hetu several meters away had made people think he was impulsive and passionate, now they simply saw him as a reckless man with unimaginable audacity.

Even though he was honored as a distinguished guest by the Xiao Family, daring to lay a hand on Zheng Bihui meant he would surely have to withstand all of the Zheng Family's fury.

"Dad!" Zheng Fengfeng ran over, helping the somewhat dizzy Zheng Bihui up, seething with anger.

Li Xiaoyao looked indifferently at the father and son duo, and said, "Tell Yang Tianren to wash his neck clean and wait for me to kill him!"

Zheng Fengfeng didn't dare say another word; this man was simply too dangerous, and he didn't even think about resisting.

And with Yang Tianren not around, there was no one in the Zheng Family who could stand against him.

Lan Shili was slightly stunned; despite dealing with countless shrewd business elites and government officials, he had never encountered someone like Li Xiaoyao who didn't play by the rules.

From Li Xiaoyao's recent words, Lan Shili gleaned some valuable information.

The Zheng Family and Li Xiaoyao seemed to have a grievance.

"No matter who you are, you will bear the wrath of the Zheng Family for your actions today!" Zheng Bihui, holding half his face, spoke furiously.

He had lived so many years, never suffering such humiliation, especially being slapped across the face in front of so many onlookers.

It was an immense disgrace, one that could only be cleansed with Li Xiaoyao's blood.

"Had there not been a need for a messenger, you would be dead already," Li Xiaoyao said indifferently, his cold eyes causing an involuntary shiver among the crowd.

Confronted with his unemotional gaze, Zheng Bihui suddenly shuddered; he had the unsettling feeling that if he said anything more, Li Xiaoyao would indeed kill him without hesitation.

Li Xiaoyao slowly turned to several members of the Lan Family, his eyes settling on Xu Wan's face, who instantly felt as if she had plunged into an icy cellar, her body stiff with fear.

"Lan Cai is my woman," Li Xiaoyao declared with a volume not loud yet irrefutably final.

"Considering you are Cai'er's elder, I will spare you this time. If I hear again that you've harbored inappropriate thoughts towards Cai'er, I will surely kill you!" He directed these words at Xu Wan.

The crowd's confusion mounted; this young man wasn't only at odds with the Zheng Family but seemed to have a grudge against the Lan Family as well. Read new adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

The most important question was, who exactly was this youth?

After brazenly offending the Zheng Family without a care, he didn't even regard the Lan Family with importance.

Dropping those words, Li Xiaoyao wrapped his arm around Lan Cai's shoulders and said softly, "Let's go."

Xiao Ya envied Li Xiaoyao, who had courageously confronted two of Jindu's major families for the sake of a beautiful woman.

Fu Xiaosheng and the other two looked at Li Xiaoyao with eyes filled with starry admiration.

No one at the venue dared to stop Li Xiaoyao any longer, and he was sent off with a multitude of complex gazes.
