The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 712 - 0: Issuing a Challenge

Lin Yingying had never shown such a humble demeanor in front of others before.

But today, in front of Long Fei, she had no choice but to put aside her pride.

Even though the wedding was hasty and irregular, she was happy and willing in her heart.

Long Fei, on the other hand, felt a headache coming on, finding the situation even more challenging than dealing with the Yan Family Ancestor.

His grandfather opened the door and immediately changed his demeanor, saying excitedly to Long Fei, "Then it’s settled. There’s no day like today; let’s have your engagement today. We’ll hold the wedding in three days. You have no objections, do you?"

Long Fei wiped his face, thinking that with things already said this way, what objections could he possibly have.

Lin Yingying pursed her lips, giggling secretly to the point of tears.

After wiping her tears, she said to Long Santai, "Grandpa, I have no objections."

Long Santai smiled and said, "That’s my sensible future granddaughter-in-law. After you get married, make sure to keep an eye on Long Fei. This kid, once he gets a bit of skill, he forgets his own last name. With grandpa backing you up, you don’t have to be afraid of him!"

"Yes!"

Lin Yingying happily agreed, casting a proud glance at Long Fei.

Long Fei sighed, wondering who exactly was the old man’s real grandson. Since when did a grandfather side with his granddaughter-in-law like this?

Li Heiwa stood by with his ears perked up, and upon hearing their decision, he excitedly shouted, "Grandpa Long, leave Long Brother’s wedding to me. I’ll go buy the groceries right away, and we’ll have the engagement feast today!"

"That’s the way to do it. Order dishes on par with a grand hotel’s standards. We can’t have a shabby celebration for the Old Long Family."

The old man took out a bank card and handed it to Li Heiwa with an air of wealth, saying, "There’s no password; just swipe it for whatever you want to buy."

Long Fei widened his eyes, wondering where the old man got the money.

These past years hadn’t been great, and he had aged, never seeming to go out and work.

The old man glared at him, scolding, "What are you staring at? This money was given to me by my future granddaughter-in-law. I am not spending your money!"

Lin Yingying smiled without saying a word, her generous gesture of millions in filial piety was something other future daughters-in-law might not have the courage for.

Long Fei suddenly understood, thinking the old man truly had an eye for money. It turned out Lin Yingying had bought him off.

Li Heiwa took the bank card, pulled out his phone, and hurriedly made several calls to get all the village’s young lads to come over.

On the phone, they urgently exclaimed, "Hey, Hei Wa Brother, come look at the fields, our Chinese roses have all returned to normal!"

Someone else chimed in, "It’s truly miraculous. As soon as Brother Long came back, the flowers didn’t dare wilt anymore."

Li Heiwa scolded, "What are you looking at the flowers for? Brother Long is getting engaged today, hurry on down and help me with the groceries!"

"Engaged?"

The people on the other end of the line were obviously shocked.

Soon after, a large group of people ran down the mountain.

Long Fei’s engagement was a big deal for everyone in the village.

Village Chief Li Fugui directed everyone, with some moving tables and others getting bowls and dishes.

In a short while, over fifty tables were set up in the courtyard.

With everyone in the village of five or six hundred squeezing in, they could all find a seat.

Liu Heiwa, having had experience with procurement before, went even bigger this time.

A Wuling Hongguang van had been emptied out to bring back five goats, which were butchered on the spot, along with tofu, cabbage, and glass noodles, to start with a big pot of stew.

If it hadn’t been for the difficulty in transporting a cow, which was too big,

they would have even been ready to haul a cow back from the cattle farm.

The courtyard bustled with activity, while Long Fei, sitting in the shade of the trees smoking, frowned with worry.

He had no idea how to broach this matter with Wang Xiaoya.

Lin Yingying came over and sat down beside him.

She had just helped the village women wash vegetables and her forehead glistened with sweat.

Long Fei took out a handkerchief intending to wipe her brow, but then saw it was the one Wang Xiaoya had given him.

He retracted his hand and put it away, turning to Lin Yingying, "Isn’t this kind of engagement feast too much of a compromise for you?"

"Not at all!"

Lin Yingying shook her head, staring at the bustling villagers, laughing, "A wedding like this has the warmth of human touch, with everyone busy together, sharing in the joy. In the city, everything is paid for, even the smiles on people’s faces are fake."

"That’s true!"

Long Fei stretched, draping an arm over her shoulder.

Lin Yingying leaned against him naturally and asked softly, "Are you considering how to explain this to Little Ya?"

On such a joyous day, Long Fei didn’t want to talk about it.

But since Lin Yingying brought it up, he nodded honestly, not wanting to lie to her. freēwēbnovel.com

Lin Yingying’s eyes twinkled mischievously, "Seeing you so pitiful, big sister will help you out!"

Long Fei became excited, "Really? Then hurry and persuade Grandpa, even if we get engaged today, we can postpone the wedding."

Lin Yingying gave him a look, "You and your ostrich technique, when will you ever change? Since Grandpa already said so, it’s clear he can’t be persuaded. We can take a different approach and try persuading Xiaoya."

"Ah?"

Long Fei widened his eyes and quickly shook his head, "How could that work, wouldn’t she be heartbroken if she found out?"

Lin Yingying patted his shoulder, "Don’t worry, I have a clever plan. Once Xiaoya knows, she won’t feel sad at all, she’ll be happy for us."

"What clever plan?"

Long Fei did not believe it.

"That’s a woman’s secret, not telling you!"

Lin Yingying deliberately teased him, then stood up and twisted her body, "You keep brooding; I’m going to help wash the vegetables."

Long Fei rubbed his head, clueless about what trick she had up her sleeve.

If she could really persuade Wang Xiaoya, then things would be much simpler.

The fires blazed under the stove, and the oil sizzled in the pan.

After a morning of hustling, the villagers placed rough-looking yet fragrant dishes in bowls and brought them to the table.

The bowls, utensils, and dishes were all mismatched, from different households, some as big as platters.

Though the food didn’t look pretty, it tasted deliciously fresh and was very pleasing to the palette.

Long Fei and Village Chief Li Fugui sat at the same table, calling over the agricultural professionals from the city to join them for the meal.

While everyone was having a lively time, a luxurious Mercedes drove up and stopped on the road in front of Long Fei’s house.

Everyone turned to look, thinking it was some important official arriving.

Li Fugui wiped the grease from his mouth and hurried over to greet them.

But when the car door opened, out stepped an old man in traditional Chinese attire, with white hair, a goatee, and a cunning look on his face.

Li Fugui halted his steps, and the other villagers also stood up, exclaiming, "Isn’t that the Feng Shui Master?"

"It is him, why has he come?"

"Last time I heard he caused trouble for Long Fei?"

"That bastard, how dare he bully our Long Fei, I’ll thrash him!"

A group of people frowned, some even picking up wooden stools.

Tang Fengnian, seeing the fierce expressions of the villagers, couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and shouted into the house, "Where is Long Fei?"

Long Fei came out, followed by Lin Yingying, his gaze sharp as he stared at Tang Fengnian.

He hadn’t sought out this man, but here Tang Fengnian was, showing up on his own.

After many days, Tang Fengnian had greatly improved his skills.

He thought that upon encountering Long Fei, his powerful presence would be enough to overwhelm him.

But now, staring into Long Fei’s eyes, he couldn’t help but shiver as if facing a lion.

Long Fei asked him, "Are you here looking for death?"

Tang Fengnian swallowed hard, thinking to himself that this guy was too hotheaded, always talking about death.

He instinctively took a step back and said to Long Fei, "I’m not here to fight you today. I’m here to issue a challenge. In three days, my master will set up a great formation on Three Immortals Mountain and invites you to break it. If you’re brave enough, come on over."
