It was somewhat different from what Nalan Yanran had expected. After she said her words, the body of the boy in front of her trembled violently. He slowly raised his head. His delicate and young face was now so ferocious.
terror…
Although he has been ridiculed for three years, in Xiao Yan's heart, he has a bottom line that belongs to him. Nalan Yanran's arrogant and alms-like behavior just stepped on the only thing hidden in Xiao Yan's heart.
On top of the remaining dignity.
"Ah..." Startled by the young man's ferocious appearance, the girl hurriedly took a step back. The handsome young man on the side suddenly pulled out his long sword and pointed at Xiao Yan with a cold gaze.
"I... really want to kill you!" His teeth were trembling, revealing the murderous words. Xiao Yan clenched his fists, and his dark eyes were burning with furious flames.
"Yan'er, don't be unreasonable!" Xiao Zhan, who was at the top of the list, was also startled by Xiao Yan's actions and shouted quickly, the current Xiao family cannot afford to offend the Yunlan Sect.
Clenching his fists tightly, Xiao Yan lowered his head slightly, and after a moment, he gently raised it again. However, the ferocious terror before had turned into calmness...
In the past three years, although he suffered a lot of discrimination and ridicule, it also forged Xiao Yan's forbearance that was far beyond ordinary people.
The Nalan Yanran in front of him was the darling of the Yunlan Sect. If he really did anything to her now, he would probably bring countless troubles to his father, so he had to endure it!
Looking at the young man in front of him who almost suddenly calmed down his inner emotions, Ge Ye and Nalan Yanran suddenly felt a chill in their hearts...
"If this kid is always a waste in the future, that's fine. If he really has power, he will definitely be a dangerous person..." Kuzu Ye said solemnly in his heart.
"Xiao Yan, although I don't know why my actions made you so angry, but you... you should break off the engagement!" With a gentle breath, Nalan Yanran calmed down from the previous fright, and her face smiled slightly.
Shen said.
"Please remember, my teacher, the head of the Yunlan Sect, personally approved my coming to the Xiao family this time!" Nalan Yanran pursed her lips, tilted her head slightly, and said helplessly: "You can
This is regarded as coercion, but you should also know that reality is like this. Nothing is absolutely fair. Although you don't want to express anything, you also know the gap between you and me. We..."
"There's basically no hope..."
Listening to the girl's divine judgment, a sneer overflowed from the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth: "Miss Nalan... you should know that in Douqi Continent, if a woman regrets her marriage, it will embarrass the other party. Haha, I am thick-skinned, but it's nothing, but my
Father! He is the head of the clan. If he really agrees to your request today, how will he be in charge of the Xiao family in the future? How will he gain a foothold in Wutan City?"
Looking at the angry young man with a face full of anger, Nalan Yanran frowned slightly, and glanced at Xiao Zhan, who suddenly seemed to have aged a lot at the head of the table. She felt a little apologetic, bit her lips, and pondered for a moment.
His smart eyes rolled slightly, and suddenly he said softly: "What happened today was indeed a bit reckless for Yanran. Today, I can temporarily withdraw my request to terminate the engagement, but I need you to promise me a promise!"
"What agreement?" Xiao Yan asked with a frown.
"I can postpone today's request for three years. Three years later, you come to Yunlan Sect to challenge me. If you lose, I will terminate the engagement in public. By then, you must have also performed the family's coming-of-age ceremony.
Therefore, even if you lose, it will not embarrass Uncle Xiao too much. Do you dare to accept it?" Nalan Yanran said calmly.
"Haha, if I lose then, it will indeed not damage my father's reputation. But I, maybe I will have to bear the name of shameful failure for the rest of my life. This woman... is really cruel!" Xiao smiled sadly and indignantly in his heart.
Yan's face was full of sarcasm.
"Miss Nalan, it's not like you don't know Yan'er's situation. Why did you ask him to challenge you? Is it interesting to insult him like this?" Xiao Zhan slapped his palm on the table and got angry.
"Uncle Xiao, someone has to take responsibility for regretting the marriage. If it weren't for saving your face, Yanran would have forcibly dissolved the marriage at this moment! And then announced it to the public!" After being blocked several times, Nalan Yanran was also a little impatient,
He turned to the silent Xiao Yan and shouted coldly: "Since you don't want to make Uncle Xiao lose face, then accept the agreement! Three years later and now, will you choose the former or the latter?"
"Nalan Yanran, you don't need to make such a strong gesture. If you want to break off the engagement, you just think that I, Xiao Yan, a useless person, am not worthy of a proud daughter like you. To put it bluntly, apart from your beauty, you
, the other young masters don’t look down upon me at all! The Yunlan Sect is indeed very strong, but I am still young, and I still have plenty of time. I have already become a fighter when I was twelve years old, and you, Nalan Yanran, you are twelve
How much fighting spirit did I have when I was 10 years old? Yes, I am indeed a waste now, but since I was able to create a miracle three years ago, then in the years to come, why do you think I can't stand up again?" Faced with this
Seeing the girl's aggressive posture, the silent Xiao Yan finally erupted like a volcano, with a cold face and words that shocked everyone in the hall into a daze. Who would have thought that the usually taciturn young man would
, is so beneficial.
Nalan Yanran squirmed her little mouth. Although her face was livid with anger at Xiao Yan's evaluation of her, she could not defend herself. What Xiao Yan said was indeed the truth. No matter how useless he is now, he became a woman at the age of twelve.
The fighter was real, but Nalan Yanran at that time had only reached the eighth level of fighting spirit...
"Miss Nalan, for the sake of Mr. Nalan, Xiao Yan would like to advise you, for thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty!" Xiao Yan said coldly, making Nalan charming.
His body trembled slightly.
"Okay, don't bully young people into poverty! My son, Xiao Zhan, is extraordinary!" Xiao Zhan's eyes lit up at the top of the list, and he slammed his palms on the table, causing tea to splash and spill.
Gritting her teeth and staring at the sneering young man in front of her, Nalan Yanran had been pampered all year round, but she had never been taught such a lesson by her peers. She was so angry that her head was dizzy, and her slightly childish voice was also a bit sharp: "Why do you teach me a lesson? Even you
No one could match your talent before, but now you are just a waste! Well, I, Nalan Yanran, will wait for the day when you surpass me again. I can stop mentioning the cancellation of the engagement today, but after three years,
I'm waiting for you in Yunlan Sect. If you have the ability, just show me how far you can stand up! If you can defeat me by then, I, Nalan Yanran, will be a slave and a maid in this life, and you have the final say!"
"Of course, if you are still such a waste after three years, you must hand over the contract to terminate the engagement obediently!"
Looking at the livid-faced girl, Xiao Yan smiled and mocked: "In three years, I really won't be interested in you at all!" After saying that, he ignored Nalan, who had a pretty and cold face.
Yanran suddenly turned around, walked quickly to the table, and started writing furiously!
The ink falls and the pen stops!
Xiao Yan suddenly pulled out the dagger on the table with his right hand. The sharp blade suddenly drew a bloody gash on his left palm...
The blood-stained palm left a dazzling blood mark on the white paper!
Gently picking up the contract, Xiao Yan sneered, and when he passed by Nalan Yanran, he slammed it on the table with his palm.
"Don't think that I, Xiao Yan, care much about your genius wife. This contract is not a contract to dissolve the engagement, but a divorce certificate for me to expel you from the Xiao family! From now on, you, Nalan Yanran, and I, Xiao
Home, there is no connection at all!"
"You...you dare to divorce me?" Looking at the bloody contract on the table, Nalan Yanran's beautiful big eyes widened, and she said with some disbelief. With her beauty, talent and background, she would be beaten by a little
The loser in the family was simply divorced? This sudden change made her feel too unreal.
Looking coldly at Nalan Yanran's stunned look, Xiao Yan suddenly turned around, knelt down in front of Xiao Zhan with bent legs, kowtowed heavily, bit his lips tightly, but remained stubbornly silent...
Although in the family, he was the one who nominally expelled Nalan Yanran from the family, but after this incident was spread, others would not think so. They who did not know the situation would only think that it was Nalan Yanran who had a tyrannical background.
, forced the Xiao family to break off the engagement. After all, with Nalan Yanran's talent, beauty, and background, it is absolutely more than enough to match a good-for-nothing young master from the Xiao family. No one would think that Xiao Yan would have the courage to divorce a young man.
The future helmsman of the Yunlan Sect... And because of this, as Xiao Yan's father, Xiao Zhan will definitely receive countless ridicules...
Looking at the kneeling Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan, who understood that he was extremely apologetic in his heart, smiled lightly and said with a smile: "I believe that my son will not be a waste in his life. Mere rumors and rumors will be defeated in the face of reality in the future.
.”
"Father, in three years, Yan'er will go to Yunlan Sect to personally wash away the humiliation you have suffered today!" The corners of his eyes were moist, and Xiao Yan kowtowed heavily, then stood up and walked out of the hall without hesitation.
.
When passing by Nalan Yanran, Xiao Yan paused in his steps and spat out his cold, childish words.
"In three years, I will look for you!"
The boy's back was stretched extremely long under the sunlight, making him look lonely and lonely.
Nalan Yanran opened her mouth slightly, staring blankly at the disappearing figure. The contract in her hand suddenly became as heavy as a thousand catties...
"Three of you, since your goal has been achieved, please come back." Looking at the young man leaving, Xiao Zhan's face was indifferent, but the fists hidden in his sleeves were clenched until his fingers turned white.
"Uncle Xiao, Yanran apologizes to you for what happened today. If you are free in the future, please come to Nalan's house as a guest!" Gongshen saluted Xiao Zhan, who had an indifferent expression. Nalan Yanran didn't want to stay any longer, so she stood up and faced
Walking out of the hall, behind, Kuzu Ye and the handsome young man hurriedly followed.
"Take the Qi Gathering Powder away too!" With a wave of his hand, the jade box on the table was coldly thrown away by Xiao Zhan.
Kuzu Ye reached back with his palm, firmly grasped the box, smiled bitterly, and put it into the ring.
"Miss Nalan, I hope you won't regret today's actions in the future. Also, don't think that you can do whatever you want with the support of the Yunlan Sect. The Dou Qi Continent is very big and more tyrannical than Yun Yun.
There are not many people..." Just as Nalan Yanran and the others were about to go out, the girl's light voice, with a touch of indifference, suddenly rang out.
The three people's footsteps suddenly stopped, and their eyes changed slightly, casting their eyes on the girl in the purple skirt who was gently turning the pages of books in the corner.
Sunlight shines in through the cracks in the doors and windows, just wrapping the girl in it. From a distance, she looks like a purple lotus blooming in the secular world, pure and beautiful, free from dust...
As if aware of the gazes of the three people, the girl raised her delicate little face from the simple pages of the book, and her beautiful eyes like autumn water suddenly burst out with a thin golden flame...
Looking at the tiny golden flames in the girl's eyes, Ge Ye's body trembled violently, and a look of horror instantly covered the old face. His withered hands hurriedly grabbed the confused Nalan Yanran and the young man, and then ran away for their lives.
Like running out of the hall...
Looking at Kuzu Ye's actions, except for a few people in the hall, everyone else couldn't help but have expressions of astonishment on their faces...
