Chapter 262: Su Lin’s Plans, Bai Qikun’s Tests!

Watching He Suxin standing above, Ma Junjie felt a soul-deep terror for the first time, the awful sensation of not being in control of his own life and death.

But he was powerless, Ma Zhong, despite being a peak Grandmaster, was utterly insignificant in front of He Suxin. His current paralysis and the fear in his eyes said it all.

Ma Junjie didn’t want to die; he hadn’t enjoyed life enough yet. Thus, he was the first to break, “Senior, I will go with you.”

Seeing how quickly Ma Junjie caved, He Suxin slightly nodded without much expression. If Ma Junjie complied, she wouldn’t resort to violence, but if he tried to escape, he would indeed die.

As for Li Tiancheng and Li Weifeng, she didn’t care at all. He Suxin saw that both were behaving and nodded, “Follow me, lag behind, and you die.”

Both trembled and followed He Suxin as she flew towards the bustling district.

Meanwhile, at the Xiao family, Xiao Feiyu also received the news of Ma Junjie’s escape attempt. Inside the villa, Xiao Feiyu’s face was gloomy as he fiercely smashed the cup in his hand, “A good-for-nothing who only causes problems. What’s the use of running away now?”

Wang Yannian agreed with Xiao Feiyu’s sentiment, nodding, “Indeed, Ma Junjie is more trouble than he’s worth. Are you going to continue your cooperation with him?”

Xiao Feiyu bitterly said, “Continue? How can we continue? No need to guess, Ma Junjie must have fallen into Su Lin’s hands by now. We shouldn’t meddle in his affairs; without absolute strength, we must not mess with Su Lin, or it’s suicide.”

“Old Wang, how are the marriage talks with Liu Shiwen going?”

Wang Yannian saw how quickly Xiao Feiyu was willing to abandon Ma Junjie and responded routinely, knowing Xiao Feiyu well over their long association.

This man wasn’t as brainless as the outside world thought, willing to do anything for Jiang Ruoxi. He’s a thoroughly unprincipled schemer, having learned his lesson after suffering losses to Su Lin.

Ma Junjie was incompetent, and Xiao Feiyu had no choice but to cut him loose, or else he was doomed.

“The Liu family has loosened up, but they still say that Liu Shiwen must agree personally. So, Xiao Yu, you’ll have to personally visit.”

Xiao Feiyu wasn’t surprised by Wang Yannian’s report. If Wang had been able to settle things, they would’ve met the parents by now, not just Liu Bowen and Liu Shiwen.

Thinking of Liu Shiwen’s attitude towards him gave Xiao Feiyu a headache. She wasn’t a fool and could see right through Xiao Feiyu’s intentions to climb socially by dragging her family into his schemes, which she found utterly repulsive.

Xiao Feiyu nodded, “Then I’ll go myself.”

He knew Liu Shiwen’s nature well; a very kind-hearted girl who adored flowers, cats, and dogs. But she also had the pride and haughtiness typical of a family heiress, making her hard to approach.

Nevertheless, for his survival, Xiao Feiyu felt a little scheming was acceptable.

“Old Wang, I’m going to the pet market.”

“The pet market? What for?” Wang Yannian asked curiously.
