Chapter 726 Even Her Father Cannot
Ordinary people cannot experience the pleasure of slapping someone away.
Yet, once one has experienced it, he will tend to love it and do it again and again.
It applies to Gao Ge, Yue Xincheng and Xia Lu affected by them.
They all seem to have this kind of thing.
After Wu You is slapped away, Wu Li and Wu Jinxiu are totally confused.
It is not that they don’t care that Wu You is beaten.
Instead, they are too shocked to give any response.
It won’t matter whether Wu Li or Wu Jinxiu is beaten. Even if it is known by the Wu Family, they will be disgruntled at most. They won’t make a big fuss.
Yet, Wu You is different from Wu Li and Wu Jinxiu.
Wu You is a core member of the Wu Family.
However, Wu You is beaten now.
Gao Ge’s slap was not so much given to Wu You as all the people of the Wu Family.
This is…
Too much!
They have met Xia Shengtang before and think he is a bit aloof.
They have met Xia Lu and think she is rather cool.
Now that they have met Gao Ge, they think he is even more arrogant!
Well. It doesn’t rhyme…
“Do you know who I am?” Although Wu You feels it will make him look stupid if he asks such a question now, he may be unable to fall asleep tonight if he doesn’t.
“You are from the Wu Family! I know that. So what? Any problem?” Gao Ge thinks about it and then adds in a threatening way, “I’m good at fixing problems.”
Wu You doesn’t dare to make a sound then.
Seeing Gao Ge’s facial expression, he suddenly realizes that Gao Ge really means what he says.
If he really pisses off Gao Ge, Gao Ge will rush forward and give him a beating for sure.
What Xia Shengtang said before is still fresh in Gao Ge’s memory.
After all, the things are all done by the Dragon Killers.
In this case, he doesn’t have anything to worry about.
However, he doesn’t mean to kill Wu You.
He wishes the Wu Family to fall out and fight violently with the Dragon Killers. Yet, the Dragon Killers may not stand up to help the Xia Family if Wu You really dies.
As to the promise they have made to Xia Shengtang…
To be honest, Gao Ge really doesn’t trust them.
He cannot kill Wu You but he doesn’t find it a problem to give the latter a beating.
Besides, he really dislikes the Wu Family.
They dare to come to the Xia Family and propose marriage.
This is too outrageous!
Just because he looks too kind, they feel that he is a pushover?
Humph.
He won’t let them get their way!
“Enough. If you don’t want to die, you had better leave now,” Xia Lu suddenly says.
The people all turn around and look at Xia Lu who is wearing a faint smile on her face.
In fact, Xia Lu dislikes smiling but when she smiles, she looks quite pretty. Seeing her from the distance will make one feel as if all the ice around were melting.
Xia Lu meets Gao Ge’s gaze.
This time, Xia Lu doesn’t avoid his gaze and still smiles sweetly.
Besides, she also says to Wu You, “After all, if the man who I like gets mad, the consequence will be very serious.”
Gao Ge is a bit taken aback.
After a moment of astonishment, he feels delighted deep in his heart.
Although neither Gao Ge nor Xia Lu says anything, exchanging glances is good enough to let them know each other’s thoughts. Maybe they have known each other for too long and they are closely associated so they have a tacit understanding of each other.
What Xia Lu said sounds so hurtful to Wu You.
“Have you thought it through?” Wu You gasps heavily with his eyes turning red.
Now, he appears like a beast on the verge of fury.
Not any man can remain absolutely calm faced with such kind of stimulation.
“Thought it through? Do I have to think about it?” Xia Lu says smilingly in an unhurried way, neither conceited nor rash.
“Do you know what it means? Does your family really want to set against the Wu Family?” Wu You clenches his fists.
Before Xia Lu replies, Xia Mu suddenly says, “Of course we dare not! Wu You, calm down. Xia Lu is drunk and talking nonsense…”
Xia Mu runs here in a sweat.
Just now, he heard what Xia Lu talked about with Wu You.
For him, that was like a catastrophe!
The Wu Family.
That is a family of the blessed spot!
The Xia Family is really nothing to the Wu Family. Even if there is a swordsman at the realm of Grand Master in the Xia Family, they are still not strong enough to rival the Wu Family.
As the master of the Xia Family, Xia Mu feels gravely stressed.
The Xia Family’s provoking the Wu Family is like a three-year-old peeing in an adult’s bowl.
The Xia Family would be messed up for sure.
Besides, the families like the Wu Family all take the dignity of the family as the top priority.
Xia Mu feels that Xia Lu is obviously courting death.
Therefore, as Xia Lu’s father, he surely cannot stand by and watch Xia Lu causing trouble like this.
“Uncle Xia, it seems that the Xia Family doesn’t take our family seriously,” Wu You snorts and says.
“No. There must be a misunderstanding…” Xia Mu winks at Xia Lu while wiping the sweat off his head.
Xia Lu directly runs to Gao Ge and holds Gao Ge’s arm. It is the first time she has acted like this but when she does so, she looks rather proficient as if she had done it countless times.
Xia Lu looks up at Gao Ge’s soft eyes and smiles even more sweetly.
“Xia Lu, do you really want to drag the Xia Family into the abyss?” Seeing the scene, Xia Mu trembles in anger.
She is adding fuel to the fire!
Gao Ge is a good man indeed.
Yet, Gao Ge cannot be compared with the Wu Family!
How can the silly girl do stupid things at the crucial moment?
Xia Lu turns around to take a look at Xia Mu, sneers and says to Wu You, “Wu You, how about marrying my father? By then I will call you Mother? Look. My father likes you so much!”
Wu You is speechless.
Seeing Xia Mu’s ugly face, Wu You subconsciously shudders. More dreadfully, he has conceived the image in his mind. D*mn it! He is really good at imagining…
“Xia Lu!”
“What? Would you cut it out? You asked me to marry Lyu You before and now, you want me to marry Wu You. What on earth are you up to?” Xia Lu suddenly flares up and raises her voice.
Xia Mu is so furious.
Xia Lu is telling the truth.
He subconsciously raises his hand and yet, his wrist is gripped by Gao Ge.
“No one can hit my girl. Even her father cannot,” Gao Ge looks at Xia Mu and says gently.
Wu You almost can’t refrain from rushing forward to ask, “Can her stepmother hit her?” Having thought about it, he perishes the thought…
