Chapter 174 Burning and Illuminating
Although Ye Binglan didn’t explain verbally, her actions had undoubtedly made everything clear!
Seeing this, the gloom in Jiang Yihe’s eyes grew even darker!
He shifted his gaze from their arms and fixed his eyes on Su Rui, his face filled with resentment.
Looking at Jiang Yihe’s expression, Su Rui frowned. He really disliked when people gave him such looks.
Jiang Yihe let out a cold laugh and said in a mocking tone: “Ye Binglan, I’ve pursued you for so long, and you wouldn’t even acknowledge me. Everyone in the capital is waiting to laugh at me, but I remained devoted. Now you’ve found someone like this, how can this random guy compare to me?”
Hearing the words “random guy,” Ye Binglan’s expression also darkened: “Jiang Yihe, I’m warning you, you can insult me however you want, but you cannot insult him! Not even a single word!”
“Don’t think so highly of yourself. In my heart, he’s a thousand times, ten thousand times better than you.” Ye Binglan’s expression was determined and stubborn!
In her heart, no man could compare to her little brother!
Hearing this, Su Rui looked at Ye Binglan who was tightly gripping his arm, and felt warmth flowing through his heart.
“A thousand times? Ten thousand times?” Jiang Yihe laughed in extreme anger: “In terms of wealth, family background, appearance, how can he compare to me?”
“Jiang Yihe, this is exactly what I hate most about you. Without your grandfather and father, without the Jiang family, what would you have to be proud of?” It seemed Ye Binglan’s disgust toward this person had reached its limit. They hadn’t been talking for even two minutes, and the atmosphere was already filled with hostility.
Hearing the words “Jiang family,” Su Rui narrowed his eyes, releasing a dangerous aura.
“Without the Jiang family, what would I be? Unfortunately, your assumption doesn’t stand!” Jiang Yihe laughed coldly: “Ye Binglan, I’ve pursued you for so long, and you’re still ungrateful, hooking up with some random guy outside. Do you know that if those two infertile people in the Ye family hadn’t adopted you, you’d just be a bastard!”
Ye Binglan’s face changed from pale blue to white, her body trembling slightly!
This word, from childhood to adulthood, she had heard it many times, whether at her so-called grandparents’ home or outside, rumors always found their way into her ears!
Ye Binglan’s insistence on working in Ninghai after college graduation had a lot to do with this!
She instinctively wanted to grip Su Rui’s hand tighter, but Su Rui released her hand.
Ye Binglan’s body trembled again.
But at this moment, her little brother had already extended his arm, holding her body tightly in his warm embrace!
Jiang Yihe saw all this clearly. He threw the bouquet of roses in his hand violently to the ground, then stomped on it heavily several times!
“Ye Binglan, you bitch, you really don’t know when you’re being given face!” Jiang Yihe said in rage!
From the first meeting, Jiang Yihe had been attracted by Ye Binglan’s beauty and temperament. What you can’t have always seems the best. Over the years, he had been obsessed with Ye Binglan. Although he changed bed partners every few days, all beautiful with good figures, he still wanted to conquer Ye Binglan, not for anything else, just to satisfy his desire for conquest!
Over the years, although Ye Binglan had always rejected him, she had never been in any other relationships, so Jiang Yihe could still barely contain himself, occasionally playing romantic. All along, he had been confident about winning Ye Binglan. Therefore, when he saw the woman he desired tightly embracing this man, this young master Jiang felt like he was about to explode with anger!
Hearing Jiang Yihe’s words, the cold light in Su Rui’s eyes condensed once again!
He held Ye Binglan’s shoulders tightly, feeling his “sister’s” slightly trembling body. The scene from five years ago began to slowly flash before his eyes.
That time, a lot of blood was shed, many people died.
Later, a saying began to circulate quietly among the people—When Fierce Flame rages, blood flows like water!
He was Fierce Flame, a dancing fire. He could illuminate this world, and equally, he could burn it!
“I suddenly feel like killing someone.”
Su Rui said softly.
Yes, he said he wanted to kill, not fight.
Ye Binglan was his family, his long-lost little sister. Having just found her, how could he tolerate anyone saying such insulting words to his family?
After years of tempering in the Western underworld, Su Rui had long achieved rationality over emotion, but this time, he really couldn’t control himself.
Hearing Su Rui’s voice, Ye Binglan’s body trembled again. She knew her brother was about to go berserk for her sake.
“Brother, you can’t, you absolutely can’t!” Ye Binglan hugged Su Rui’s waist, dissuading him with concern. After witnessing the formidable strength of her little brother’s two subordinates, she truly didn’t believe he was joking! When he said he wanted to kill someone, he really meant it!
If her little brother did something irrational for her sake, Ye Binglan would regret it for the rest of her life!
Hearing Ye Binglan’s call, the heavy bloodlust in Su Rui’s eyes faded a bit.
“It’ll be fine, don’t worry.” Su Rui patted Ye Binglan’s shoulder, giving her a reassuring look.
“Ye Binglan, you’re asking for trouble. Marrying into our Jiang family would be your greatest fortune. Your elders all want to facilitate this marriage, yet you don’t cherish it, shamelessly getting involved with this random guy.” Jiang Yihe laughed coldly.
“Jiang Yihe, stop talking. I have no relationship with you! Those elders, are they really my elders?” Ye Binglan replied coldly, still tightly hugging Su Rui, afraid he might do something irrational because of her!
She was just a girl adopted by the Ye family, not only unable to contribute anything to that so-called family but also a burden to them. In the eyes of those elders, since the Ye family had raised Ye Binglan to adulthood, giving her such a great blessing, she naturally should serve her maximum purpose, and marrying Jiang Yihe, allowing the Ye and Jiang families to maintain good relations for generations, was undoubtedly a very good choice.
Marrying into the Jiang family, for Ye Binglan, was no different than an orphanage chicken becoming a phoenix! What did she have to be dissatisfied about?
Jiang Yihe lifted his foot and stomped heavily on the flowers again: “When I go back, I’ll personally visit the Ye family and tell them about your shameless behavior. Let’s see where they’ll put their faces!”
“Still want to maintain good relations with our Jiang family? Keep dreaming for generations!” Jiang Yihe sneered: “A slut like you, I wouldn’t even touch if you stripped naked for me!”
In his rage, Jiang Yihe had completely forgotten what decency was, fully exposing his ugly face!
Although Ye Binglan was already furious to the extreme, she still tightly hugged Su Rui’s waist, afraid he might rush out irrationally!
But she found that her arms were easily pried open by Su Rui!
With a chilling aura all over his body, he stepped forward!
A contemptuous smile crossed Jiang Yihe’s lips: “What, you random guy, want to act tough in front of me?”
Su Rui shook his head: “You really deserve to die. I think if I killed you, your Jiang family probably wouldn’t say anything.”
“Brother, don’t be impulsive!” Ye Binglan shouted. She knew that even if she rushed forward, she couldn’t stop Su Rui!
“Kill me? Do you know what my position in the Jiang family is?”
Jiang Yihe waved to the shadows: “Come out, teach him a lesson. Don’t be too harsh, just break his limbs.”
A figure walked out from the shadows, revealing his face. He looked to be in his fifties, wearing a long robe, thin and wiry, with slightly graying temples, exuding a sinister aura. He looked like a skilled fighter!
Su Rui still looked at Jiang Yihe, not even glancing in this person’s direction!
Ye Binglan saw this figure and suddenly remembered some rumors, anxiously shouting: “Jiang Yihe, don’t be reckless! This is a place of law!”
Jiang Yihe growled at Ye Binglan: “Law? In front of you, I am the law! I’ll have this man’s limbs broken, then I’ll take you! You ungrateful bitch! Get him!”
But before he finished speaking, suddenly his vision blurred, and a powerful fist had already swung to his face!
As the fist made contact with his nose bridge, the fragile nasal bone immediately collapsed with a crisp crack, and blood exploded all over his face!
Just with this simple punch, Jiang Yihe’s snot, tears, and blood all gushed out together!
His previously decent face was now completely distorted!
Then, Su Rui’s right arm swung out, delivering a backhand slap that directly knocked Jiang Yihe to the ground!
Jiang Yihe was dizzy, his entire head buzzing. Even now, he hadn’t clearly seen what had happened!
After all, from the moment he started getting hit until now when he was lying down, it had only been a brief second!
“Again and again, you dare to insult my sister. If I kill you, who can stop me?” Su Rui’s words conveyed an icy killing intent!
After speaking, Su Rui raised his foot, about to stomp on Jiang Yihe’s chest!
If this stomp landed, Jiang Yihe would likely suffer massive chest bone fractures and die on the spot! From Su Rui’s movements, there wasn’t the slightest intention to hold back!
“Stop right there!”
At the same time, the middle-aged man who had been standing in the shadows shouted loudly. Before his words faded, his fist had already swung toward Su Rui’s face!
Ye Binglan, watching from behind, saw very clearly that this middle-aged man seemed to have taken just one step before instantly appearing in front of Su Rui!
“Be careful!”
Just as Ye Binglan shouted, the middle-aged man’s fist arrived at Su Rui’s face!
The punch was fierce, generating strong winds!
Judging by the force of this punch, even if it were hitting a steel plate, it could shatter it without any fancy moves!
As if he already knew this punch was coming, facing such a fierce attack, Su Rui didn’t even bother to look at it. He simply turned around, swung his left fist, and collided precisely with this powerful punch!
