Chapter 524 - 524 Qiao An’s Furious Rejection

524 Qiao An’s Furious Rejection

Seeing that he couldn’t defeat Xing Chen, the village scholar’s son staggered to his feet and pointed at her. “Xing Chen, I like Qiao An. I’ll go against you for the rest of my life.”

Qiao An was furious and cursed, “Why don’t you take a piss and look at yourself? Do I have to marry you just because you like me? I only like Brother Xing Chen in my life. I only marry Brother Xing Chen and only give birth to his children. Stop dreaming.”

As Xing Chen stared blankly at Qiao An, his eyes were overflowing with happiness and contentment.

The village head’s son looked at Qiao An with contempt. “Qiao An, what kind of taste do you have? Don’t you see what the Xing Chen family’s conditions are? They don’t even have a decent house. If you follow him, you’ll only suffer. Look at me. I can buy you nice clothes, and nice jewelry, and there’s someone at home to serve you. Marry me and you can enjoy life.”

!!

People nodded around. “Yeah, there’s a big difference between the two conditions. A slightly smarter woman would know to choose a village head’s son.”

Xing Chen looked very dejected. He had never been so defeated. In the past few years, he had served Father Xing and neglected his ambition to rise to the top. As a result, he had achieved nothing.

Xing Xiaoya looked at Qiao An proudly. “Qiao An, you heard it too. Our Xing family is useless. We can’t afford to support a rich young lady like you. I hope you can wake up and make a rational choice.”

Xing Chen glared at Xing Xiaoya. “Xing Xiaoya, Qiao An is your sister-in-law. Shut up.”

Xing Xiaoya said, “Brother Xingchen, I know you like her, but you have to be able to keep her.”

Xing Chen looked at Qiao An uneasily.

Qiao An saw the uneasiness in his eyes and pulled his hand over, hugging his arm tightly. “Brother Xing Chen, we’re already man and wife. I won’t allow you to abandon me for any reason.”

Xing Chen nodded solemnly. “Yes.”

The village head’s son snorted and walked off.

The bonfire party continued.

Qiao An’s unhappiness was dispelled by the excitement of the bonfire party. She went to the food pile and picked up a piece of lamb to roast.

At this moment, the village head’s son walked over and said sarcastically, “Qiao An, my family sponsored this lamb. The ingredients for today’s bonfire party were all sponsored by my family.”

Xing Chen saw the village head’s son getting close to Qiao An and immediately became vigilant. He walked over quickly and stood shoulder to shoulder with Qiao An. It was as if a tiger in a mountain forest was defending its territory.

“Fu Dayou, if you approach Qiao An again, don’t blame me for being rude to you,” he warned her. When he spoke, his cold aura was intimidating.

Fu Dayou was clearly stunned by his aura. He didn’t expect such a gentle and elegant man to become a different person in order to fight for Qiao An.

He didn’t dare push his luck and said disdainfully, “Xing Chen, don’t worry. I’m a civilized person after all. I won’t use despicable methods on Qiao An. I just want to compete with you fairly.”

Qiao An scolded angrily, “I’m not a commodity. What right do you have to fight for me?”

Fu Dayou said, “Qiao An, don’t be in a hurry to express your stance. If you stay here for a while longer, you’ll realize that living with Xing Chen is miserable. At that time, you’ll take the initiative to look for me.”

With that, Fu Dayou left with a lecherous smile.

Xing Chen glared at Fu Dayou as he left.

Qiao An didn’t have the arrogance of a rich and powerful person at all. Instead, she carried a basket of meat skewers and pulled Xing Chen to the fire.

Xing Chen was depressed.

Qiao An comforted Xingchen as she roasted the meat skewers. “Brother Xing Chen, don’t be angry. My heart will ache if you make yourself unwell being upset by a profligate like him.”

Xing Chen was cured by her sweet words. He picked up the meat skewer from her hand and smiled gently. “An’an, I’ll roast it. Go play.”

Qiao An leaned her head on his shoulder and wheedled. “I want to stay with you more.”

Every word and action of hers made XIng Chen extremely gratified.

In the distance, Xing Xiaoya stomped her feet in anger when she saw how close Qiao An and Xing Chen were.

Xie Cunhua walked up to Xing Xiaoya and whispered to her, “Xiaoya, Qiao An might be an old acquaintance of your brother?”

Xing Xiaoya had wondered about the same thing. When Xie Cunhua said that, she became vigilant. “Do you know anything?”

Xie Cunhua said, “Qiao An and I chatted the other day. I blamed her for interfering in your relationship with Xing Chen, but she said many strange things.”

Xing Xiaoya’s face twisted as she said hatefully, “What did she say?”

Xie Cunhua said, “She said that you shouldn’t have coerced Xingchen with your life-saving grace. She said that your life-saving grace can’t compare to the nurturing of a native family. She even said that Brother Xing Chen is an elite in medicine and the martial arts industry. It wasn’t easy for his parents to nurture such an outstanding talent. How could he be tied to this desolate place by the Xing family’s life-saving grace?”

Xing Xiaoya’s hands and feet turned cold.

She had always used the XIng family’s life-saving grace to entrap Xing Chen. Actually, she knew that it did not make sense. It was just that she bullied Xing Chen for being reticent and thought that Xing Chen believed in her warped logic.

She didn’t expect someone to undermine her now. If Qiao An whispered to Xing Chen from time to time, Xing Chen would definitely leave her.

Xie Cunhua continued, “I originally thought Qiao An was lying. But did you see just now that Xing Chen was able to knock down so many people swiftly? This means that Qiao An wasn’t lying. Perhaps she really knows Xing Chen’s past.”

Xing Xiaoya’s face turned pale and her body trembled.

Xie Cunhua quickly helped her. “Xiao Ya, you have to think of something quickly. Otherwise, your Brother Xing Chen might be taken by Qiao An. All the villagers nearby like Brother Xing Chen and want to keep him.”

Xing Xiaoya’s eyes were cold. “I won’t let her take my Xing Chen away.”

Xie Cunhua whispered into her ear. It was unknown what the two young ladies were thinking, but then they walked over hand in hand.

“Brother Xing Chen, let me roast it for you.” Xing Xiaoya and Xie Cunhua sat down beside Xing Chen. Xing Xiaoya snatched the meat skewer from Xingchen’s hand and chatted as she roasted.

“How can this job be done by a man? Brother Xing Chen, look, the other men are wrestling over there. Which man isn’t served by a woman?”

The more Qiao An listened, the more she felt that something was wrong, but she was also a sensible person. Then, she grabbed the roasted meat from the basket and roasted it. Then, she said to Xing Chen, “Brother Xing Chen, Sister is right. I’ll do this kind of thing. Go play.”
