Chapter 173 Frowning Slightly

Simon's Café.

Liu Wentian sat across from Sheng Qianmei.

Having not seen each other for a long time, Sheng Qianmei was still that serene and intellectual beauty, radiating a unique charm specific to a knowledgeable woman.

With golden hair and long legs, her delicate face harmonized the elegance of an Eastern beauty and the depth of a Western belle, drawing glances from everyone in the café, men drooling over her while women looked on with jealousy.

And now, her beautiful face bore a hint of worry, her brows slightly furrowed.

"What's the matter, are you troubled by something?" Liu Wentian asked with concern.

"No, what could possibly be troubling me?"

Sheng Qianmei's expression tensed, then she quickly changed the subject, "How's your bodyguard job going? Still not planning on working as a doctor at the hospital?"

Sheng Qianmei obviously had something on her mind, but since she wasn't sharing, Liu Wentian didn't press further and simply laughed, "I guess I'll never go back to working as a doctor at the hospital."

"Alright, I figured as much."

Sheng Qianmei nodded, then continued, "So, what are your plans for the future? You can't just be a bodyguard forever, right?"

"Of course I won't be a bodyguard forever," Liu Wentian chuckled, "Being a bodyguard was just for that ten million, and now that I don't need the money anymore, naturally, I won't continue being one."

Sheng Qianmei pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Liu Wentian, if you could never see me again, would you miss me?"

Liu Wentian felt a jolt in his heart and frowned, "What do you mean? Have you changed your mind and decided to accept those invitations from foreign hospitals?"

Sheng Qianmei had told him before about the invitations from prominent hospitals abroad, but after their last conversation, she seemed to have declined their offers.

For some reason, upon hearing Sheng Qianmei's words, Liu Wentian felt an uncomfortable sensation, as if she was planning to leave forever.

"Don't ask about that."

Sheng Qianmei gave a bitter smile and persisted, "I just want to know if I were to disappear forever, would you miss me?"

"Yes!" Liu Wentian replied, nodding.

Sheng Qianmei's eyes brightened, "Why?"

"Because you're a super beautiful woman," Liu Wentian responded with a smile.

Sheng Qianmei seemed somewhat disappointed, "Is that the only reason?"

Then she smiled wanly, "Well, that's fine too."

However, her expression seemed tinged with sadness, causing Liu Wentian to furrow his brows in concern.

What's going on? Was she really planning on leaving? But since she didn't want to talk about it, it wasn't right for him to keep asking.

Just then, a young man with an arrogant face and flashy attire walked in, making his way directly to their table. He frowned at Liu Wentian, then scolded Sheng Qianmei, "Sheng Qianmei, who is this man? You actually dare to sneak out for a date with a random guy. If Zhou Yi found out, do you understand the consequences? If you want to die, don't drag the Sheng family down with you!"

Liu Wentian's eyes flashed with anger, but seeing that this person seemed to know Sheng Qianmei, he temporarily held his tongue.

Upon seeing the young man, Sheng Qianmei's face immediately turned cold, "Leng Tiantu, this is my business; it's none of your concern!"

"Ha, not my concern? I'm going to meddle in your business!" the young man sneered. "Zhou Yi has his eye on you; you'd better just stay obediently at home and wait for him to take you as his wife. If not, what use does our Sheng family have for your entire household?"

Finishing his tirade, the young man turned to Liu Wentian with a cold gaze, "Kid, from now on, you're forbidden from approaching Sheng Qianmei. Get lost at once, or else I'll make you disappear from Shenming City for good!"

Liu Wentian narrowed his eyes, emitting a chilling light, ready to speak up, but Sheng Qianmei suddenly stood up in a fury, "Leng Tiantu, if you dare to touch him, even if I die, I won't marry Zhou Yi! And your Sheng family will never have a chance with the Zhou family!"

Leng Tiantu was taken aback, and then his face turned ashen. "Sheng Qianmei, what is the meaning of this? Are you disregarding the Sheng family just for this boy? Do you even understand what you're saying? Are you insane?"

Sheng Qianmei's gaze was icy as she faced him, "The Sheng family? To me, my Sheng family is just me and my parents. As for the Sheng family you speak of, it's nothing more than a heartless clan devouring others! When have we ever been considered part of your Sheng family? For all these years, my mother hasn't been allowed to step half inside the Sheng family estate! My father has been exploited by your vampires all along; what Sheng family are you talking about? In my eyes, you've never been my family!"

"You... you're going to pay for this!"

Leng Tiantu couldn't believe Sheng Qianmei would say something so insubordinate and viewed her with a fierce stare. Sheng Qianmei met his gaze, unwavering.

"Fine, fine, fine!"

Leng Tiantu, furious, repeated the word "fine" three times before continuing, "I can leave for now, but from today onwards, you can't meet with this guy anymore. Just stay at home and wait to be taken by Zhou Yi. Otherwise, if you mess up a big opportunity for our Sheng family, all three of you in your household, including this kid, will have to die!"

After speaking, Leng Tiantu's right foot suddenly lifted and, blade-like, he chopped down towards a nearby table!

Thud!!

The wooden table, about 10 centimeters thick, was directly split into two halves under Leng Tiantu's foot!!

Whoosh!!

Everyone in the coffee shop was taken aback, their faces filled with horror as they looked at Leng Tiantu, all seriously frightened.

Even the waiter was scared stiff and didn't dare to step forward.

"You..."

Sheng Qianmei's face turned ashen from the show of intimidation, finally deflating like a punctured ball, "Fine, I agree to your terms, now get out of here immediately!!"

"Hmph!!" Leng Tiantu sneered and was about to leave.

"Stop right there, I didn't say you could leave."

Liu Wentian blocked Leng Tiantu's way, his gaze frosty as if he hadn't seen the terrifying kick just now.

"Kid, do you really want to die??" Leng Tiantu was initially stunned, then flew into a rage, incensed that this damn brat dared to challenge him!!

Sheng Qianmei's face went pale with fear and hurriedly pulled Liu Wentian, saying, "Liu Wentian, let him leave, don't provoke him!!"

But Liu Wentian shook his head.

From their conversation just now, Sheng Qianmei seemed to be forced by Leng Tiantu's Sheng Family to marry that Zhou heir. Treating Sheng Qianmei as a friend, Liu Wentian naturally felt the need to intervene.

Moreover, he felt compelled to teach this fellow a lesson just based on the other party's arrogant words!!

Seeing Liu Wentian shaking his head, Sheng Qianmei's complexion turned deathly pale, and she finally gritted her teeth and said, "Liu Wentian, this is my problem, it's none of your business!! Please stop causing me trouble!!"

Liu Wentian frowned, staring at Sheng Qianmei, "Do you really think I am causing you trouble??"

Sheng Qianmei bit her lip and said, "How could it not be?? Do you understand what the Sheng Family represents?? Do you know who Zhou Yi is?? Do you realize that if you mess around, you might kill me and my parents??"

Liu Wentian felt a wave of disappointment in his heart, not expecting Sheng Qianmei to think this way. He said coolly, "It seems I was meddling too much!!"

"Smart kid, you know your place. Otherwise, I'd have killed you!!" Leng Tiantu sneered and turned to leave.

After Leng Tiantu left, Liu Wentian said, "Since you think I'm meddling and causing you trouble, then there's no need to continue drinking this coffee!! Goodbye!!"

After saying that, he was about to leave, but suddenly, Sheng Qianmei, as if all her strength had left her, collapsed into his arms.

Tears streaking down her face, Sheng Qianmei said angrily, "Liu Wentian, do you realize that you almost got yourself killed??"

"I almost got myself killed??"

Liu Wentian knitted his brows, but seeing Sheng Qianmei crying so pitifully, he softened and helped her to sit down on a nearby chair, asking gently, "Do you really need to be this afraid?? Is the Sheng Family that powerful??"

"Of course they're powerful, otherwise, why would I have said those harsh words just now!!" Sheng Qianmei said.

Only then did Liu Wentian understand that her words were out of fear of bringing trouble upon herself from the Sheng Family.

However, no matter how powerful the Sheng Family might be, he wasn't afraid. As a martial artist, he feared neither heaven nor earth, let alone a mere family!!

"Well, why don't you tell me just how powerful the Sheng Family is then?? You're crying so hard, you clearly don't want to marry that Zhou heir, right?? If that's the case, don't force yourself," Liu Wentian said while gently wiping away the tears from Sheng Qianmei's eyes.

Sheng Qianmei seemed to enjoy Liu Wentian's gesture, tilting her face up slightly with a sigh, "Of course I don't want to marry Zhou Yi, but I have no choice. Liu Wentian, have you heard of the Ancient Martial Arts Family??"

Liu Wentian's eyes showed a hint of intrigue; he himself was an ancient martial arts expert, naturally aware of what an Ancient Martial Arts Family entailed. It was just that Sheng Qianmei didn't understand. Enjoy new stories from My Virtual Library Empire

But since Sheng Qianmei asked like this, it was very likely that the Sheng Family was an Ancient Martial Arts Family, and Zhou Yi probably also had connections to an Ancient Martial Arts Family.

He wasn't surprised because he had already noticed that Leng Tiantu was a Postnatal Early Stage ancient martial arts expert.

Seeing that Liu Wentian didn't respond, Sheng Qianmei thought he didn't understand what it meant to be an Ancient Martial Arts Family and explained, "Ancient Martial Arts Families generally don't have much to do with ordinary people; it's normal for you not to understand. Just remember, the Sheng Family is an Ancient Martial Arts Family, and the Zhou Family behind Zhou Yi is even stronger than the Sheng Family. You must absolutely not provoke them!! Ancient Martial Arts Families are far more terrifying than the powerful families you usually see because, in this society, those families at least abide by social rules, but Ancient Martial Arts Families will kill in anger and operate by the laws of the underworld. To them, ordinary people are no different from ants!!"

Liu Wentian ignored Sheng Qianmei's explanation, seemingly still unaware of the terror of the Ancient Martial Arts Family, and asked softly, "You don't have to tell me this; just tell me, do you or do you not want to marry Zhou Yi??"

"Of course I don't want to marry him!!" Sheng Qianmei said with a wry smile.

As for Zhou Yi, she barely knew him, only having met him by chance once, after which he went straight to the Sheng Family to propose. Then the Sheng Family, wanting to climb up by allying with the Zhou Family, completely disregarded Sheng Qianmei's wishes and ordered her to marry Zhou Yi.

"If you don't want to, then don't marry him!!" Liu Wentian said indifferently. Hearing that Sheng Qianmei had no desire to marry Zhou Yi, he felt inexplicably relieved.
