I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With-Chapter 1139: Extra Story – Youran and Xichen 20

Cheng Youran’s movements froze for a moment.

Xiao Xichen’s deep eyes stared straight at her, "Cheng Youran, even if I don’t inherit the Xiao Family, I can still support you with my own hands. But if I become the heir of the Xiao Family, even the freedom to be with you would be taken away. So, I don’t want to do it, and I never will!"

There was too much emotion in that gaze, rushing towards Cheng Youran like a tide.

She bit her lip and looked away, "You idiot... you’re such a fool!"

"I’d rather be a fool." Xiao Xichen grinned, and was glared at by Cheng Youran, "Who allowed you to smoke! Smoking is bad for your health!"

Xiao Xichen quickly admitted his mistake, "I was wrong, I was wrong... I won’t smoke anymore, I’ll quit, okay?"

Seeing him like this, Cheng Youran no longer had the heart to be angry, and looked at him helplessly, watching Xiao Xichen smile so brightly, just like a chrysanthemum.

Suddenly, the sound of arguing came from the Martial Arts Hall, followed by someone shouting, "The master is injured!"

As soon as Cheng Youran heard this, she broke into a cold sweat and ran towards the Martial Arts Hall.

Xiao Xichen forcibly pulled her back, his expression serious, "What are you, a woman, doing running in there? Don’t get in the way, stay outside and behave!"

He was always carefree and joking, but when he got serious, he was unexpectedly intimidating.

Coincidentally, Huang Yi came out of the convenience store with Ning Xixi. Seeing this, Xiao Xichen asked Huang Yi to take care of the two girls, and went into the Martial Arts Hall alone. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

In the past few days, because of Cheng Mama’s illness, the Martial Arts Hall had already been closed; only cleaners and a few coaches were there.

Cheng Papa lay on the ground, two people kneeling by his side, calling his name loudly, while several coaches stood ready, confronting a row of men in black on the opposite side.

As soon as Xiao Xichen saw those men in black suits, he cursed under his breath.

Those were the Xiao Family’s bodyguards!

"Get back, all of you! Do you even know what the hell you’re doing?" Xiao Xichen shouted.

The leading bodyguard bowed slightly, his bronze face expressionless, "Young Master, we only follow the orders of the Master and Madam."

Xiao Xichen instantly understood; these people were sent by his parents!

"What did they ask you to do?" Xiao Xichen asked through gritted teeth, his voice low and fierce.

"The Master and Madam said that if you continue to be stubborn, it won’t be as simple as just teaching the people of the Cheng Family Martial Arts Hall a lesson. Young Master, you know, the Master and Madam have the power to make it impossible for this Martial Arts Hall to continue operating." The bodyguard recited emotionlessly, but beneath his dark sunglasses, there was a hint of pity in his gaze towards Xiao Xichen.

Being born into such a family was Xiao Xichen’s fortune.

Yet perhaps, it was also his misfortune.

Xiao Xichen’s hand, hanging at his side, clenched tightly into a fist, his tall body trembling uncontrollably.

"Mr. Cheng, shall we continue?" The bodyguard provocatively gestured at Cheng Papa.

Cheng Papa, being older and recently exhausted, was no match for these bodyguards who had undergone life-and-death training.

But for the sake of his wife and daughter, for his dignity, Cheng Papa still forced himself to stand up.

"Master!" A group of people called out in unison, unable to bear it.

Cheng Papa stood tall with a straight back, saying in a deep voice, "Bring it on."

"Damn it, if you want to touch my father-in-law, you’ll have to step over me first!" Xiao Xichen, like an enraged lion, stood in front of Cheng Papa!
