Chapter 1021 - Punishment
Helian Xiao’s eyes darkened, and he looked at Mrs Zhou with eyes as sharp as an eagle. “What right do you have to question me?”
In front of the world’s richest man, Mrs Zhou really had no status. The woman was noone and as insignificant as an ant.
Helian Xiao did not look at Mrs Zhou anymore and his sharp gaze looked over at Zhou Li.
Zhou Li’s legs turned weak by his powerful aura.
“I’ll ask you once. Did An Feng seduce you first?”
Zhou Li lowered his eyes and hesitated, trembling with fear.
Mrs Zhou was about to pull his hair when her phone rang. Seeing that it was from her father, she answered and her expression changed when she heard what the person on the other end said. “What? The bank stopped loaning to our family? The company may not hold out and has to be declared bankrupt? What are you saying?!”
Mrs Zhou suddenly remembered that Helian Xiao was the world’s richest man and had numerous banks under his name. In her daze, she had forgotten that the loan of her company was from the Helian family’s bank.
With just a word, he could make her family face bankruptcy.
Was it for that b*tch An Feng?
Mrs Zhou realized the seriousness of the matter and her pupils constricted. She was about to say something when she heard Zhou Li said, “An Feng did not seduce me. It was me who was interested and I hugged her forcefully.”
Mrs Zhou was furious. “W-What did you say?”
After Zhou Li heard his wife’s phone conversation just now and knew that her family was going bankrupt, his heart felt strangely light. He could finally hold his head high and be rid of this woman. He smiled coldly and said, “I said I hugged her. I have always liked women of her type and hated women like you. If you had not pressured me with your family’s wealth, I would have divorced you long ago! Go and take a look at yourself in the mirror. Do you really think I would like you? The only thing I like is your family’s money! But now, I don’t even care about your money anymore!”
Hearing his caustic words, Mrs Zhou was trembling with anger. In the end, everything turned black and she fainted.
An Feng looked at the scene happening and had no expression on her face. She pushed aside the crowd and ran out.
The other ladies who had bullied An Feng wanted to apologize to Helian Xiao, but he ignored them and chased after An Feng.
Quick steps brought An Feng to the beach.
Very soon, Helian Xiao caught up with her.
An Feng kept walking forward. Helian Xiao took several big strides and caught her slender wrist.
“Let go of me!”
An Feng wanted to shake off Helian Xiao’s hand, but was unable to.
Although he had arrived in time and helped her out, seeing how Zhou Li treated his wife, An Feng was afraid that in the future, Helian Xiao and her would end up in such a state.
It was really scary when men changed!
Helian Xiao pulled An Feng under a palm tree and pressed her against the tree, one hand on the top of her head and looked down at her. “I misunderstood you.”
An Feng’s eyelashes fluttered. “What did you misunderstand?”
“When I woke up this morning and didn’t see you, I went to look for you and saw you in Zhou Li’s arms. You didn’t push him away immediately and I saw that you were blushing when you look at him and looking shy. I know you liked him before so I thought…”
Helian Xiao was interrupted by An Feng, whose eyes were red. “I was blushing because I thought of what happened last night between us and I didn’t push him away because he held me so suddenly I couldn’t even react in time. But it was only for a few seconds, before I pushed him away.
“Do you think I’m a person who would be intimate with her senior when I had given myself to you?” The grievance in An Feng’s heart surged up again and she glared at the man. “Am I that kind of promiscuous woman in your eyes?”
The moment her voice fell, she was pulled into his arms. His chest was firm and strong and her nose hurt a little when she knocked into him.
Her hands clenched into fists and she pounded his shoulders, but he held her even tighter.
He rested his chin on the top of her head and said in a deep and mellow voice, “You fool, I’m not suspecting that your behavior is bad, but I care. I hope that I’m your only man after you get together with me.
“When I didn’t see you in my arms this morning, I was worried that you regretted it and wanted to escape again. I went to look for you anxiously but when I saw you hugging another man, I was a little angry.
“We have only just gotten together and it’s going to take some time for us to move from being interested with each other to understanding and trusting each other. But I’d like to develop this process with you. How about you, did you regret what happened last night?”
Faced with his honesty, An Feng’s face was pressed against his broad shoulders and she felt choked up when she smelled his strong and charming masculine scent. “Didn’t you also record it on your phone last night?”
Helian Xiao suddenly found that this woman was smart. She just didn’t bother to care about things sometimes.
“Yes, I recorded it and it’s too late for you to regret it.”
Helian Xiao said nothing and lowered his head, their faces becoming closer.
An Feng could see his eyelashes moving slightly. It was very long and thick and her ears felt hot when his nose touched hers.
She put her hands on his chest and under her palms, she could feel his steady heartbeat.
He came closer and pressed his lips against hers, and there was a faint taste of tobacco.
…
An Feng left on the second day of Tang Ci’s wedding.
She wanted to go back to the Capital, but she did not know if she was under Helian Xiao’s spell. For some reason, she agreed to go back to the Helian family with him.
She regretted her impulsiveness the moment she went into the private plane. The plane that came to pick him up and arrived at the large tarmac of the Helian family in M Country.
They had hurried from the island and the private plane had stopped directly at his house so she had no time to buy gifts.
Although he was the head of the Helian family, there was still his mother!
Helian Xiao saw that An Feng had not moved when the plane had stopped and he looked at her with his dark eyes. “Nervous?”
An Feng furrowed her eyebrows. “I didn’t prepare anything and came directly with you. Won’t it give a bad impression?”
“You don’t need to bring anything. You gave birth to Zhizhi and that’s the best present.”
An Feng was speechless. How was this the same thing?
Helian Xiao raised his eyebrows. “Do you want me to carry you down?”
Before An Feng could say anything, he reached out his long arms and picked her up from the seat.
Ah! An Feng exclaimed in fright.
When the butler who had come to pick Helian Xiao saw that he had not come down from the plane, he went to look and saw Helian Xiao carrying An Feng.
The butler had on a look of disbelief.
Master had never brought a woman back before!
An Feng struggled to get down from Helian Xiao and she glared at him with her face red. “Be serious.”
The butler was stunned.
His master was usually a very serious person!
Why was he not serious now?
Helian Xiao held An Feng’s hand and went to the plane’s door, introducing her to the butler. “This is Young Lady’s mother, and the madam of the Helian family in the future.”
