"Cough, cough, Tang Huohuo, I still have something to discuss."
Ma Sanjian glanced at Tang Huohuo with a hint of embarrassment.
Tang Huohuo was taken aback. "What the heck? I promised to support him, but I didn't expect him to falter at such a crucial moment. What should I do now, Old Fu?"
In his heart, Tang Huohuo quickly sought advice from Old Fu.
"How would I know? From my perspective, you should just admit defeat and avoid conflict with Chen Anlin. You are no match for him," Old Fu advised, naturally urging Tang Huohuo to be patient.
"Admit defeat?? You said that I was destined to walk the path of invincibility in the future. How can you tell me to back down now?"
Tang Huohuo was so furious that he felt smoke coming out of his nostrils, glaring resentfully at Ma Sanjian.
Ma Sanjian couldn't bear to look at him and awkwardly stepped aside.
"Senior Ma, you didn't expect Ma Sanjian to falter either. I'm feeling a bit of a headache," he thought, instinctively glancing at his son, Tang Huohuo. If his son insisted on not calling off the engagement, he would have to persuade him somehow.
There was no choice; circumstances were stronger than individuals.
Tang Huohuo glared angrily at Chen Anlin, feeling that Ma Sanjian's sudden lapse was definitely related to what Chen Anlin had just said.
"Alright, Chen Anlin, I've remembered you."
Tang Huohuo's heart burned with anger.
Old Fu feared that Tang Huohuo might do something reckless and earnestly advised him, "Huohuo, don't act impulsively. Remember what I told you—be patient! Once you become powerful in the future, there will be plenty of women for you. If you kill Chen Anlin, even Li Xuexin will climb into your bed."
Old Fu sighed as he spoke. He was a cultivator himself.
In his prime, if he encountered disobedient people like this group, he could blow them away with a single breath; they would die like dogs.
But now, not to mention these experts, even a junior of the seventh or eighth rank could deal with him.
That’s why he urged Tang Huohuo to be patient. He didn’t want anything to happen to him; it would be difficult for him to come back from that.
After listening to Old Master Fu's persuasion, Tang Huohuo's anger finally subsided a bit. However, her resentment towards Chen Anlin deepened. She even harbored grievances against the Wan Sword Manor and Li Xuexin. If you truly like me, why would you let these people come to my home to call off the engagement? What an inconsiderate woman!
"Tang Huohuo!" Li Xizhi frowned.
Suddenly, Tang Huohuo laughed, her expression lightening as she shrugged her shoulders. "I'm sorry, I got a bit carried away just now. I realize I was wrong. Please forgive me and let this matter go; I have no objections to the annulment of the engagement."
She then forced a smile at Chen Anlin. "Chen Zi, I apologize to you."
The members of the Tang family were all taken aback. Especially Tang Zhan, who thought his son changed his attitude faster than he could turn a page in a book. He suddenly felt worried, concerned that his son might have been affected by something to say such things.
Chen Anlin stared at Tang Huohuo, particularly at the top of her head. Well, well, her fortune had risen a bit more. He could clearly discern that Tang Huohuo was holding back her true feelings. Indeed, these children of destiny were all like ninja turtles.
However, it must be said that her restraint at this moment was absolutely correct. Otherwise, if she had forced the issue, the Tang family would not gain any advantage.
But this created a problem for him. He had been thinking about how to find an excuse to deal with Tang Huohuo, yet unexpectedly, this kid had already admitted defeat!
"You really are quite understanding," Chen Anlin remarked as he looked at Tang Huohuo.
"Chen Zi, we have already agreed to annul the engagement!" Tang Zhan said.
Tang Huohuo quickly added, "Right! Earlier you mentioned that there would be compensation for the annulment, right? Since it's unavoidable, we might as well get some benefits out of it."
Just as he finished speaking, Chen Anlin slapped his hand through the air, striking Tang Huohuo.
Smack!!
Tang Huohuo flew back, several of his teeth shattered.
At this point, did he still want compensation?
Chen Anlin snorted coldly, feeling delighted in his heart. He had been looking for an excuse to hit him.
Tang Huohuo was utterly aggrieved. "No, brother, I was just asking! If you’re not going to give compensation, then just don’t! Why hit me?! Besides, didn’t you say before that as long as I was willing to cancel the engagement, I could get the compensation? Are you backing out now?!"
Seeing his son being hit, Tang Zhan was furious. "How can you hit someone?"
"Your son is ignorant; he deserves to be taught a lesson," Chen Anlin scoffed.
Tang Zhan helped Tang Huohuo up and turned to Chen Anlin, scolding, "You are truly bullying us! I—"
He wanted to say a few harsh words but faltered under the unfriendly gazes of the Li family members.
However, he believed everyone should be reasonable, so he said, "If we’re canceling the engagement, then fine. But the terms can be negotiated. Why did you hit my son?"
Tang Zhan looked at Li Xizhi. "Isn’t the esteemed Wanjian Mountain Villa trying to bully us with their power?!"
"Your son is rude; he got hit because of it," Chen Anlin replied indifferently.
"Exactly! That’s the reasoning!" Li Xizhi completely sided with Chen Anlin.
"Haha, what a joke! Father, they clearly don’t want to give compensation anymore. We don’t need their compensation!"
Tang Huohuo took a deep breath, stood up straight, and looked at Chen Anlin with righteous indignation. "But remember this: thirty steps east and thirty steps west; I will remember this humiliation!"
Chen Anlin laughed.
Here it comes—the child of destiny is making threats.
What a ridiculous saying about thirty steps east and thirty steps west! I won’t give you the chance!
He sneered and looked at Tang Zhan. "Don’t you want to know why I’m targeting your son? Let me tell you: your son is no longer your son; he has been possessed by a demon!!!"
