Strongest Wastrel

After saying that, Faang Dao walked away, bringing Chu Yuyan along as he left the Xu Family, leaving the gathering grounds of the four families. Throughout the entire process, Chu Yuyan had not even glanced at me, and had already become a stranger.    

    

My heart hurts, my heart aches. For Chu Yuyan, I don't care about anything from the Eastern Tomb to the Yanjing, and I even put myself on the line to live a new life. I changed my face to become Koo Liangsheng.    

    

But now, everything that I have done, has become an irreversible, unexplainable, and deadly situation. Furthermore, Faang Dao casually took away Chu Yuyan with just a few words, not me helping her break off the engagement, not me bringing her away!    

    

Under the night sky outside the venue, Chu Yuyan followed Faang Dao as we walked further and further away. I stared at Chu Yuyan's back in a daze, my heart aching like never before.    

    

Until now, when Chu Yuyan's back completely disappeared, I still watched on like a headless fly who had lost its target, muddleheaded. No matter how complacent Hsu Qingxiong is, I don't have any interest in him. In my heart, there's only Chu Yuyan's back and her cold smile.    

    

Sitting blankly in my seat, I was completely oblivious to the number of people who had left the venue. I was like a stunned fool, motionless.    

    

When I was about to leave, Second Master sighed and patted my shoulder heavily. "Liang Sheng, don't even think about it. You're just a woman. Don't you still have Little Hsing? Let's go, there's no point in continuing to stay here. "    

    

"Second Master, stop talking …" "Let's go." After a while, I recovered my senses and bitterly smiled. Then, I slowly stood up and followed NIng Yuefeng, who was leading the way, out of the seats, past the entrance of the venue and away from the Xu Family. My heart felt like it had been hollowed out and became a zombie.    

    

When we arrived at the parking lot, I got into the car in a daze. Ning Zhenhua followed behind me and was about to enter, but Davy stopped him. He looked at me deeply and sighed.    

    

"Alright." Ning Zhenhua nodded. With a complicated expression, he quickly closed the door for me and got into the other red flag car.    

    

When the engine started, I sat in the back row without a word, my mind full of Chu Yuyan's image, and the tangled and complicated emotions that I couldn't get rid of no matter how hard I tried.    

    

After an unknown period of time, the red flag carriage entered the Ning Mansion gate, and gradually rushed towards the center of Ning Mansion Villa. From afar, they saw many figures standing in front of the villa, all of them looking extremely excited, as though they were welcoming some extremely important person.    

    

When the carriage stopped, I subconsciously opened the door and stepped onto the ground. The Ning Mansion members that were gathered in front of the villa seemed to have received the news as they instantly became filled with fanaticism, especially the younger generation.    

    

"Brother-in-law!" Brother-in-law is back! "    

    

"Brother-in-law!" "So brother-in-law's real name is Lee Shaobai."    

    

"Brother-in-law is simply a treasure of our Ning Mansion. He took first place right after coming out, and is first in the Four Great Families' Gathering!"    

    

"Too powerful."    

    

"Although my real name is Lee Shaobai, but I still feel good about it."    

    

"Regardless of whether or not it goes well for me to say it, using my extremely strong results to occupy the top place of the Four Great Clans, right now, I have already activated my Yanjing. From today onwards, who doesn't know the names of my Ning Mansion, Koo Liangsheng, and Lee Shaobai?"    

    

However, facing so many people and facing so many words, my mood didn't recover in the slightest. Instead, I became even more downcast when I heard the words' Four Great Families'.    

    

Without saying a word, he silently walked through the crowd, as if he was a person without a heart. He only wanted to return to his bed to sleep, and once he woke up, everything would be fine.    

    

Seeing my strange actions, the people from the Ning Mansion were all stunned.    

    

"Cool him …" What's wrong with him? "    

    

"Why does Brother-in-law look so dejected?"    

    

"This... What happened? "    

    

NIng Yuefeng sighed, raised his hand to stop the noise coming from the Ning Mansion, and said: "I'm tired of living, and need to rest. None of you can disturb him, and let him rest well tonight, we will hold a celebration, because today is a very memorable day."    

    

Following that, loud jeering sounds came from behind me, each of them extremely happy.    

    

I walked into the main house of Ning Mansion alone and entered my own room. I gently closed the door and powerlessly fell on my bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, constantly thinking back to Chu Yuyan, her expression when she said that she was willing, and her back when she left.    

    

Closing my eyes, I forcefully restrained myself. My heart kept calling out to myself, making me stop thinking and desperately want to sleep.    

    

However, no matter how much I tried to restrain myself, Chu Yuyan's face was firmly imprinted in my mind. She kept tossing and turning in my mind, unable to fall asleep.    

    

Suddenly opening my eyes, I sat on the side of the bed and lit a cigarette. I weakly bent my waist and lowered my head, covering my eyes with my bangs.    

    

One, two, three …    

    

I don't know how many cigarettes I smoked, but the ashtray was full of cigarette butts, so I kept smoking.    

    

For some reason, Ning Hsing's figure suddenly appears in my mind. I can't help but want to tell her that I have a bellyful of words.    

    

Ning Hsing is now the closest person to me, isn't she?    

    

Unfortunately, I couldn't take this face anymore. I felt that I had lost a lot of face, that all that I had done was for naught. Even the woman I loved had left with someone else.    

    

But at this moment, the phone in my pocket suddenly vibrated. I took it out and took a look. The person on the screen was shockingly Ning Hsing.    

    

"Sure enough, once you think about Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." I couldn't help but to smile bitterly. I just had to pick up the phone by some strange accident. I felt like I had gone silly.    

    

After the call, Ning Hsing's excited voice immediately came out of the phone.    

    

"Lee Shaobai, you're not bad, you actually got first place."    

    

"I've really underestimated you. I never would have thought that you would actually get first place. This is simply too unexpected."    

    

"I already know about your situation in the Four Great Imperial Clans."    

    

"Hey ~ ~ Why aren't you saying anything?"    

    

"Hello? "Lee Shaobai, say something, did something happen to you?"    

    

"Bastard!" Are you pretending to be mysterious? It's rare for this old lady to actually call you, so quickly speak! "    

    

After pausing for a moment, I placed the phone by my ear and said desolately, "I'm here."    

    

For some reason, Ning Hsing noticed the abnormality and asked, "What's wrong with you?" There seems to be something wrong with your tone. Why aren't you speaking again? Good heavens, Lee Shaobai, you want to put on airs with me after getting first place? You are shameless! "    

    

Hearing Ning Hsing's words, I subconsciously said, "I'm fine."    

    

In the end, not only did Ning Hsing not believe him, she even questioned him, "Are you alright? If you say that there's nothing wrong, then there's definitely something you need to do. Hurry up and say it, or else, when I return to the Ning Mansion one day, I'll let you wash my feet. Do you believe me? "    

    

I smiled wryly again, thinking that I couldn't hide anything from Ning Hsing. I simply told her everything that I had been holding back, including what happened at the end of the Four Great Families' Conference.    

    

After saying that, I felt a lot better.    

    

However, Ning Hsing wasn't angry at all. She was huffing and puffing, causing me to tense up. Could it be that she was angry that her relationship with me was known by everyone in the world and wanted to kill me?    

    

However, Ning Hsing suddenly scolded me, "Lee Shaobai, you're giving up just like that? Is you still the Lee Shaobai I know? If you really like Chu Yuyan, then go after her. If you like her, then go after her. People like Soong Shaocheng, Wang Guorong, and Hsu Qingxiong have all been stepped on by you and you think a single Faang Dao is enough to stop you? If you really give up, then I will look down on you too! "    

    

"What about you?" I was stunned for a moment before I was jolted awake by Ning Hsing's scolding.
