Chapter 892 870: Bai Xiaoyue's Stubbornness
"There's no way." Ren Feng began, "Sometimes, when contests arise, it's inevitable that they touch on each other's interests."
"The main issue is Xiong Hao, Mr. Xiong and Mrs. Yu can be talked to, but Xiong Hao has been with Xiaoyue for so long, and he's not particularly broad-minded. It's inevitable that love will turn into hate. You need to be careful." Bai Baichuan said, "Also, you're not allowed to lay a hand on him. He's the only heir of the Xiong Family. If something happens to him, it will thoroughly anger Mr. Xiong, which is equivalent to offending half of the Southwest Military Region. Plus, if you consider my dad, it's practically the whole Southwest Military Region."
"Don't worry, I understand." Ren Feng nodded, "I get it, I'll let him be, after all, failing to win is bound to feel bad."
Bai Baichuan said, "That's it then. I'll find you a place to stay first, you should settle down. This matter might not be resolved in the short term."
"I expected it, but no matter how long, I will wait for Uncle to agree."
"If you hadn't said that, I could have managed it, but now, I feel the difficulty has escalated from divine level to super divine level." Bai Baichuan sighed.
Bai Baichuan left the yard with Ren Feng, then called a familiar officer to arrange a room. Now all he could do was wait.
On the other side, Bai Wanqi was almost at the point of exploding. He directly locked Bai Xiaoyue in her room, his whole face cold as ice. Even from a distance, one could feel a chilling aura.
His pistol was placed right on the table, while Pei Qiuliu was driven out, standing alone in front of the map, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Go find Baichuan for me!"
The guard outside immediately responded and went out to look for Bai Baichuan.
Before long, Bai Baichuan was standing before Bai Wanqi.
"Dad."
Bai Wanqi's gaze seemed to see right through Bai Baichuan; clearly, Bai Baichuan was the one who brought him back, so he must know Ren Feng inside out.
"Give me his information." Bai Wanqi said flatly, "Don't miss anything, or I'll contact the Dragon Squad."
Bai Baichuan sighed in resignation, "Okay."
Not long after, Ren Feng's details were laid out on the table.
Bai Wanqi flipped through them, and when he finished, his face had turned extremely dark.
"Dad, I think this matter still needs to respect Xiaoyue's own opinion." Bai Baichuan cautiously said on the side, "After all, it concerns Xiaoyue's happiness, and Ren Feng's abilities are indeed quite strong."
"Strong? Just a mercenary, are our Dragon Squad elite even inferior to him?" Bai Wanqi replied coldly, "Besides, how many women does he have?"
"That, seems to be 5 now?"
"5 now?" Bai Wanqi sneered, "And that doesn't include Xiaoyue? My daughter, Bai Wanqi's daughter, wants to be someone else's mistress? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Bai Baichuan sighed, and just then, Bai Xiaoyue walked out.
"Why are you coming out? Get back inside!" Bai Wanqi frowned and said.
"I don't care, Dad, I want to make it clear to you, no matter what, I have decided, I will not change." Bai Xiaoyue said firmly.
"Ridiculous!" Bai Wanqi slammed the table, standing up, "Have you gone mad?"
"Yes, I've gone mad!" Bai Xiaoyue stood firmly before Bai Wanqi, speaking decisively, "I've told you before that I don't like Xiong Hao; I've said it many times. Have you ever listened to me? No, this time I wanted to refuse, but you still made the decision for me without my consent! Dad, I want to live my own life, not the one you've arranged for me!"
Bai Wanqi was extremely angry, but Bai Xiaoyue stood before him, filled with a strong stubbornness.
"Dad, Xiaoyue, calm down, hey, it's not that difficult to handle this matter, we just all need to take a step back." Bai Baichuan said from the side.
"No way!" Bai Wanqi shouted angrily, "My daughter absolutely cannot marry a mercenary, especially one with poor conduct and a flirtatious life!"
"I must marry him; I will marry no one else!"
Bai Xiaoyue was equally defiant!
"You!"
Bai Wanqi, in anger, grabbed something from the table, intending to strike Bai Xiaoyue, but stopped in mid-air.
"Go ahead, hit me. You've always suppressed us with authority, are you planning to suppress even my happiness?" Bai Xiaoyue's eyes welled with tears, "Why did I go to Jiangnan City? Isn't it because you pushed me too hard? You want me to marry someone I don't even like, how can I be happy? Or is the marriage alliance between Xiong and Bai Families meant to further stabilize the Southwest Military Region?"
"Ridiculous!"
Bai Wanqi slapped across, and immediately, a red handprint appeared on Bai Xiaoyue's face.
Tears streamed from Bai Xiaoyue's eyes as she turned away and ran, rushing out of the room.
"Xiaoyue! Xiaoyue!"
Bai Baichuan panicked and hurriedly followed her out, leaving Bai Wanqi alone in the room, his eyes showing regret. As he wanted to call out to Xiaoyue, he couldn't bring himself to utter it.
He looked at his hand, and stood there stunned.
This was the first time he hit Bai Xiaoyue, the very first time since she was a child.
For a moment, Bai Wanqi was also dumbstruck.
...
Once Ren Feng's room was arranged, he could only wander idly in the Southwest Military Region.
The key this time lies with Bai Wanqi; all the family's authority rests with him. Without his agreement, he couldn't marry Bai Xiaoyue, and Bai Wanqi must willingly consent. He didn't want to cause a rift between Bai Xiaoyue and her father.
However, the Bai Family was likely used to that kind of authority; it was tricky.
Ren Feng's mind was chaotic as he strolled along, surrounded by new recruits training. At this moment, a figure stopped in front of Ren Feng.
Ren Feng looked up, and it was Xiong Hao.
At this moment, Xiong Hao's eyes were filled with undisguised anger and hatred.
"You took Xiaoyue away."
"No, it was mutual affection." Ren Feng said calmly, "Xiaoyue doesn't like you; she likes me."
Back then, Ren Feng gave Bai Xiaoyue the choice, and she chose him. How could he give her up?
Sometimes, as long as you take a step forward, the remaining ninety-nine steps, whether it's across mountains of blades or seas of fire, Ren Feng would boldly continue.
"No, you took her." Xiong Hao said angrily, "Xiaoyue and I were supposed to marry."
Ren Feng shook his head, "You're overthinking."
"Mr. Bai said only soldiers have the right to marry Xiaoyue; you lack that qualification."
Ren Feng said calmly, "Rules are meant to be broken; even if I'm not a soldier, I will marry Xiaoyue."
After speaking, Ren Feng brushed past Xiong Hao, who clenched his fists, wanting to teach Ren Feng a lesson, but had to restrain himself.
Because he was from the Xiong Family, a representative of the entire Southwest Military Region.
