Villain: The Old Man Has Done Good Deeds All His Life And Helped Justice
55. Xiao Huo: I Don’T Care, But Where Is My Father’S Face?
The grand hall of the Xiao family was filled with high-ranking individuals.
Some people looked at Xiao Zhan and his son with a mocking expression.
There were also some young people who couldn't help but steal glances at Wang Yanran, Luo Xian'er, and Xiao Yan'er, their faces filled with astonishment.
These three individuals were truly beautiful, with an otherworldly temperament, like fairies.
"Aunt Yanran, may I ask why you suddenly came to visit?" Xiao Zhan asked with a smile.
He had a vague sense of unease in his heart.
He felt that Wang Yanran had come this time to break off the engagement.
After all, the gap between them was too great. How could Wang Yanran be willing to marry into the Xiao family?
Even if Wang Yanran agreed, it was likely that the Wang family would not approve.
This was something everyone knew.
Even the younger generation of the Xiao family felt that the two were not suitable for each other, and the elders of the Xiao family had been advising him to break off the engagement.
After all, in this world, the strong were respected. If one day Wang Jie no longer cherished their old relationship, he might even destroy the Xiao family because of it.
But how could Xiao Zhan be willing?
The Wang family had already been promoted to a Four Star family.
Wang Lin had been reborn through Nirvana, breaking through to the Soul Formation Realm, and he doted on Wang Yanran the most.
If he married Wang Yanran, would the Xiao family still lack elixirs in the future?
With such a powerful backing, his son might even soar to the sky.
Under such great temptation, Xiao Zhan naturally couldn't bear to break off the engagement.
"Uncle Xiao, I came to break off the engagement," Wang Yanran said, not in the mood to chat with a stranger at the moment.
She just wants to quickly break off the engagement now and be free.
Sure enough...
Everyone had an expression of "as expected" on their faces, and for a moment, they gloated and looked at Xiao Zhan and his son.
It has to be said that Xiao Zhan is really useless.
After being the clan leader for more than ten years, he actually has no authority as a clan leader.
"You..."
Being publicly rejected, Xiao Zhan couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up and questioned.
"Is this the intention of your father, King Jie, or is it your own intention?"
"Does it matter?"
Wang Yanran's expression turned cold, her aura exploded, and she pressed down on this "Uncle Xiao" of hers.
She was extremely disgusted with Xiao Zhan. She knew that the two of them were impossible, but she stubbornly refused to break off the engagement.
Now she dared to show her attitude, thinking that she would consider the past friendship between their fathers?
Without that relationship, Xiao Zhan doesn't even have the qualification to see her.
"You, good!"
Xiao Zhan clenched his fist, gritted his teeth, and said a sentence before sitting down with a depressed face.
Years of fantasy, in the end, turned out to be nothing.
"Divine Sea realm..."
The people of the Xiao family looked at Wang Yanran in shock, but in an instant, they understood.
Wang Yanran's talent was originally not bad, and she had a vast supply of resources.
It's not surprising that she broke through to the Divine Sea realm at the age of sixteen.
"Break off the engagement?"
Xiao Huo, with a swollen face, shrugged his shoulders. It pulled on his wound, causing him to grimace in pain, looking somewhat comical.
Xiao Huo sneered.
"In the beginning, Wang Jie couldn't wait to come and propose to me when he saw my exceptional talent."
"Now that I have become useless, you can't wait to come and break off the engagement."
"Hehe..."
The two words "hehe" were full of mockery, almost saying directly that the Wang Family was seeking power and influence.
"What do you want to say?"
Wang Yanran's beautiful eyes revealed a murderous intent, and the atmosphere in the hall instantly became extremely cold.
"Useless! Kneel down and apologize to Miss Wang."
The Xiao family panicked, looking at Xiao Huo with anger on their faces.
They wished they could slap Xiao Huo to death.
Daring to mock even the legitimate daughter of the Four Star family, did they want the Xiao family to die faster?
"Kneel down and apologize?"
Xiao Huo sneered.
"Elder, if it were your grandson who was publicly broken off the engagement, would you make your grandson kneel down and apologize?"
"You... you little beast..."
The elder was once again infuriated by Xiao Huo's sharp tongue.
"That's enough."
Seeing this, Wang Yanran became even more disgusted with the Xiao family.
They could even fight among themselves in front of outsiders. It was difficult for the Xiao family to avoid decline.
But none of this had anything to do with her. She wasn't here to watch a show.
Wang Yanran looked at Xiao Zhan and said coldly.
"Hand over the marriage contract!"
Xiao Zhan also knew that it was hopeless, so he immediately took out a box.
"Wait..."
Xiao Huo stopped his father's action and looked at Xiao Yanran coldly.
"I, Xiao Huo, know that I am not worthy of you. Even if you didn't come to break off the engagement, I would have returned the marriage contract."
"But!"
As he said this, Xiao Huo's voice became angry.
"If you break off the engagement publicly, I don't care, but have you ever considered my father?"
"If this matter spreads, what face will my father have?"
"How can he continue to lead the Xiao family?"
"Face?"
Luo Xian'er, who had been silent all along, suddenly had a strange look in her eyes.
She glanced at the Xiao family.
Luo Xian'er didn't need to think to guess that the internal struggle within the Xiao family was fierce.
Xiao Huo had been publicly scolded as useless and a little beast by the elder.
What face did this father and son have left?
Now they were clamoring for face in front of the Four Star family.
Could it be that they wanted to use this as an excuse not to break off the engagement?
