C232 The Woman in Red



C232 The Woman in Red

The slap was loud!    

    

For a moment, the originally noisy auction hall fell into a dead silence.    

    

No one present could have imagined that Lin Nan would actually make a move.    

    

Furthermore, the moment he made a move, he gave Pei Jie a fierce slap in the face!    

    

This... was the eldest young master of the Pei Family who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth!    

    

"You... actually dare to hit me?"    

    

A burning sensation came from the left side of his face. Pei Jie covered his face and stared at Lin Nan with a ferocious expression, like an enraged beast.    

    

Since young, no one had ever dared to slap him - in front of so many people.    

    

"Someone raised something that no one taught. Why wouldn't I dare hit you?" Lin Nan said with a smile.    

    

"Young man, your skills are not bad, but isn't slapping your face in public a little too much?" Lee Chengfeng said from the side.    

    

In his eyes, there was a hint of anger and coldness.    

    

Just now, Lin Nan's attack was too fast. Before Lee Chengfeng could react, Pei Jie had already been slapped in the face.    

    

Smashing Pei Jie's face in front of Lee Chengfeng, in other words, it was also slapping the face of the swordsman in white!    

    

Lin Nan glanced at Lee Chengfeng and said with a smile on his face. "I have already warned him before. He insisted on attacking, so I can only help him."    

    

"Uncle Li, don't listen to his nonsense. This kid is just making excuses. From the start, he was deliberately targeting me. He must have planned this for a long time!" Pei Jie covered his swollen face and roared.    

    

"Pei Jie, do you have delusional obsessive-compulsive disorder? This is the first time Lin Nan has seen you today, so how could he have planned this beforehand? Why didn't you say that you were deliberately looking for trouble?" Fu Qian couldn't help but retort.    

    

Pei Jie looked at Fu Qian who had her eyebrows raised. The coldness on his face became even stronger. He said with a solemn face, "I was just guessing. You are in such a hurry to defend him. Could it be that your Fu Family is also involved in this matter?"    

    

"Pei, stop talking nonsense here. Who do you think you are? If I wanted to pick a fight with you, I would have done it myself. Why would I need Lin Nan to do it for me?" Fu Qian said with disdain.    

    

"Pei Jie, this is not what you think. You and Mr. Lin are just a small misunderstanding. There is no need to make things difficult for you. In my opinion, why don't we each take a step back?"    

    

Just as the atmosphere was in a deadlock, Qi Ruoyun spoke up in time and acted as the peacemaker.    

    

"Sister Ruoyun, even if I believe what you said is true, but this Lin humiliated me in front of everyone. This matter will not be let off so easily."    

    

"Then what do you want?" Qi Ruoyun asked with a frown.    

    

Pei Jie grinned coldly and said, "It's very simple! He just slapped me with his hand and crippled one of his hands. I think this should be very fair!"    

    

A slap in exchange for a hand was already a huge concession for him.    

    

"This Pei Jie is indeed worthy of being a member of Pei Family. He is truly domineering! However, he has offended the Pei Family. It's not too unreasonable to only cripple one of his hands! "    

    

"If I was the one being slapped in the face like this, I wouldn't be able to vent my anger even if I were to chop off that Lin's hands, let alone one of his hands."    

    

"That's true. The most important thing for us is our face. As the leader of the four big families in Guangling, Pei Family isn't a place that any Tom, dick, and Harry can challenge."    

    

“……”    

    

The crowd that was watching the scene was dumbfounded. Some people sighed with emotion. Some sighed.    

    

However, no one stood out to plead for Lin Nan.    

    

In fact, most of the people here felt that what Pei Jie did was understandable!    

    

In their opinion, a nobody like Lin Nan had offended a huge power like the Pei Family, and it wouldn't be too much to deal with him.    

    

Qi Ruoyun's facial expression changed drastically when she heard this, "Lin Nan was just a careless mistake. Isn't it too much for you to take one of his hands?"    

    

"Sister Ruoyun, there is no need to talk nonsense with this kind of person. Lin Nan's skills are not bad either. Who knows who will cripple who!" Fu Qian said coldly.    

    

"But even if Mr. Lin is a martial arts expert, deputy Chief Lee's status is extraordinary. If they really fight, I'm afraid the outcome will be hard to predict!" Qi Ruoyun shook her head and sighed.    

    

" So this kid is a martial arts master? No wonder he is so fearless!"    

    

Lee Chengfeng, who was standing at the side, heard their conversation and subconsciously took a step forward to block Pei Jie.    

    

As long as Lin Nan made any unusual movements, he could launch a thunderous attack at any time.    

    

Lee Chengfeng was entrusted by the patriarch of the Pei Family to look after Pei Jie. However, he didn't expect that Lin Nan would attack Pei Jie in front of him.    

    

If Lin Nan continued to push his luck, Lee Chengfeng would never tolerate his impudence.    

    

As Master of Peak of Half Step, everyone recognized him as a master swordsman. He had the right and the confidence to do so!    

    

"What's so great about being a martial arts expert? Could it be that he's stronger than Uncle Li? Today, even if the heavenly king's father came, he wouldn't be able to protect his hand!"    

    

After noticing Lee Chengfeng's subtle movements, Pei Jie became even more confident.    

    

As long as Lee Chengfeng was here, no one would be able to save Lin Nan unless a Grandmaster was present.    

    

"Looks like Lin Nan has reached the end of his life. It's time for me to step in. If I let them continue to cause trouble, it won't be easy to end this!"    

    

Fu Cheng, who was standing in the crowd, had a flash in his eyes. He was about to step in and settle this dispute.    

    

Suddenly, from outside the venue came a moving voice that was like a pearl falling onto a jade plate.    

    

"Jie, is there a need to go to such a big fuss over such a small matter? We can't easily offend a Master of Peak of Half Step like Mr. Lin!"    

    

This voice was really too magical. It made people feel as if they were bathing in a spring breeze, and they felt comfortable all over.    

    

Most of the people present subconsciously looked over.    

    

Even Lin Nan raised his head and looked outside the hall.    

    

He also wanted to know, at this time, other than Fu Qian and Qi Ruoyun, who else would come forward to plead for him.    

    

A graceful young woman wearing a long red dress. From outside the hall, a graceful and graceful lady walked over.    

    

She had a slim waist and skin as white as jade. She had a pair of watery peach blossom eyes that looked seductive.    

    

The red dress, which was originally a bit gaudy, added a unique mature charm to her dress.    

    

This young woman that suddenly appeared was like a ripe peach that emitted a unique attraction from inside out.    

    

Even Lin Nan had to admit that this was a rare beauty!    

    

However, the reason why he didn't look away wasn't just because of her appearance.    

    

It was because... the Wu Tian who appeared at the bar earlier was shockingly following behind her.    

    

"Hmm?"    

    

The moment Lin Nan raised his head to look at her, the young woman in red subconsciously looked at Lin Nan. The corners of her mouth curled into an inexplicable smile.    

    

"Aunt, why are you here?"    

    

Just as Lin Nan was guessing the identity of the young woman, Pei Jie, who had a ferocious look on his face, exclaimed in surprise.    

    

The young woman in red retracted her gaze and turned to look at Pei Jie. Her eyes suddenly turned cold. "If I don't come, you will be in big trouble."
