"Oh, so now you're showing your protectiveness? Where were you all this time?"
Xiao Xi's sarcastic voice made Xiao Haoyan very unhappy; no one had ever dared to speak to him like that before.
Enraged, he beckoned to his men, "Smash this place clean!"
Xiaoxi crossed her arms, looking like she was saying, "Go ahead and smash it."
"If you don't smash this for even a moment, I'll consider you a coward!"
Xiao Muchuan snapped out of his daze and placed his hands in front of the potato field.
"Dad, if you're going to harm my friend, then I don't want to be your son anymore!"
He thought of his good friend's life, which had been ruined by his father, and now his father was bullying his newly acquainted friends.
Seeing his son's seriousness and stubbornness, Xiao Haoyan immediately ordered his men to stop.
"Son, we can talk this over, don't be angry!" He spoke as if Xiao Muchuan were his father.
Xiao Muchuan said coldly to Xiao Haoyan, "I finally made some new friends here, Xiaoxi and her cousin, which gave me joy and a new purpose in life, but are you going to destroy it today?"
Huh? Something's off with my son today; he seems unusually energetic.
Xiao Haoyan then took a closer look at his son. His son's face was rosy, and he looked healthier than he had in the few days he hadn't seen him.
Xiao Haoyan was overjoyed. "Son, you said you're happy being with them?"
Xiao Muchuan glanced away, not wanting to pay any more attention to his father.
Xiao Xi walked over and said, "Xiao Haoyan, go ahead and smash it! Don't think I don't know about your business. I know that underground casinos are one of your businesses, and you're making a lot of money, aren't you?"
If you let your men try to take over my brother's auto repair shop without any investment, then I won't be polite and will shut down the underground casino.
"That was because you provoked me first."
Xiao Haoyan was taken aback. He had been dealing with this matter for the past few days. How did this young girl know about it? Did his son tell him?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
No matter what, the son always defends his father. That's how they've been raised in their family. The son knows what's important and what's not.
Xiao Haoyan's face darkened again, and the urge to smash the potato field surged into his mind once more.
How did you know?
He panicked. If this matter came to light, many people through his network of connections would suffer.
Just as he was caught in a dilemma, Xiaoxi continued to provoke him.
"Weren't you going to smash my potato field?"
Xiaoxi was fearless, since she had just had a bumper harvest and had dug up all the potatoes she needed to.
When that old guy destroys the potato field, he can get a huge compensation.
However, Xiao Muchuan was unaware of Xiao Xi's thoughts; he was determined to protect this potato field at all costs.
“Dad, it was Xiaoxi and her brother who saved me. I was so depressed that I didn’t want to live anymore, but Xiaoxi and the others are a ray of light in my heart. I suddenly have the courage to face everything. I beg you not to destroy all this beauty.”
Seeing that her plan had failed, Xiao Xi walked away dejectedly, not wanting to talk to Xiao Haoyan anymore.
Xiao Haoyan looked at his son and then at Xiao Xi, feeling grateful.
He had sworn that he would pay any price to ensure his son's health.
Xiaoxi didn't want to say anything more to him. "You might as well just smash up the potato field. I'm the eldest daughter of the Ye family! If you don't destroy this place, I'll treat you like a coward."
Xiao Haoyan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. It was the Ye family, the head of the four major families in Shanghai. Fortunately, his son had saved his life.
Their Xiao family isn't even ranked among the top four families. If they anger this young lady, even ten Xiao families couldn't afford to compensate them.
"I'm sorry, Miss Ye, I didn't recognize your greatness. I thank you for curing my son."
"I won't say much more about formalities. You can figure out what to do next yourself. If you do it well, I'll forgive you."
