Chapter 974: Arrival at Moon City!
"..."
Bai Houfeng felt an urge to cough up blood; this guy's face is truly thick-skinned. To actually claim he's never made a mistake is pure narcissism to the point of being pathological.
Moreover, when he said it was a mistake, it was just an excuse. Can't you tell? Why do you have to keep pressing the issue? You… brother-in-law… no, you idiot, do you have any sense at all!
Especially with this idiot calling him "fifth brother-in-law" so affectionately, it really pissed Bai Houfeng off.
He never said he wanted to be anything like his "fifth brother-in-law," yet this guy calls him it so endearingly. What does that imply? Is this him blatantly telling me he wants to pursue my sister?
This is shameless!
Fang Yi mocked Bai Houfeng a few times without feeling a trace of guilt. If he were Bai Houfeng after investigating, and ended up being tied up by a group of human traffickers without any tempers flaring, he would definitely want to find a piece of tofu and bash his head against it.
Fang Yi placed the baby on the table and began checking the baby's body.
The baby is still young; those traffickers actually fed him sleeping pills to prevent him from crying out, which is extremely harmful to the child's health. Fang Yi had to ensure there were no symptoms to immediately address!
Meanwhile, Bai Houfeng slowly stood up; his body had recovered quite a bit.
Bai Houfeng sat across from Fang Yi and asked, "Is the baby okay?"
"You have to check to find out."
Fang Yi spoke casually, "I have a question. Aren't people with the Bai surname supposed to be quite the fighters? How come you seem… like such a weakling?"
After returning to the country, Fang Yi arrived in Moon City, at first rubbing off the wrong way with the Bai Family.
At Broken Dragon Mountain, Fang Yi fought Bai Mingqi and defeated him in one move.
Among the four major families in Moon City, the younger generation of the Bai Family basically practice martial arts and are quite adept at fighting.
There's also Bai Cheng, who, even though could say nothing when Zhao Yuying overwhelmed him, Fang Yi knew he was a dog that doesn't bark yet bites fiercely, his strength on par with Zhao Yuying's.
Therefore Fang Yi found it odd; Bai Houfeng was a young member of the Bai Family, even a guard, yet how was he so… weak?
At this moment, Bai Houfeng's mouth twitched, feeling truly embarrassed being called weakling without an ounce of dignity spared.
Bai Houfeng let out a couple of bitter laughs, saying, "Yes, everyone in the Bai Family practices martial arts, but not all of us have talents for it; besides, it's today's society, it's perfectly normal for me not to be able to fight."
"So you admit you're a weakling?"
"Uh…"
"No worries, considering you're my fifth brother-in-law, I won't laugh at you."
Bai Houfeng opened his mouth, finally resigning himself: "You really are shameless, Fang Yi. I wonder why Li Xue always praises you in front of me."
"She praised me?"
Fang Yi was surprised: "Is she so in love with me that she can't extricate herself?"
Bai Houfeng gritted his teeth: "Rest assured, even if she is head over heels for you, considering your disrespect towards me, I would definitely oppose such a marriage!"
Fang Yi didn't even lift his head as he responded, "Fifth brother-in-law, let me tell you, as long as she agrees, it doesn't matter to me whether you consent or not."
In an instant, Bai Houfeng was rendered speechless by Fang Yi, ultimately opting to remain silent to avoid further attacks.
The carriage fell into silence.
Not long after, Gui Ziyue and Di Xiaotong emerged, informing Fang Yi they've taught those two a lesson. They didn't kill them, but they're not doing too well.
Fang Yi said nothing, merely directing them to go rest.
Soon, the train finally reached Moon City's borders, almost at the station.
