Chapter 1489


    Meanwhile, Keith and Hod were already having a conversation. Perhaps Keith wanted to be more


    presentable in front of ra, he was very proactive, and their conversation was very intense.


    However, Hod, who was opposite Keith, seemed calm. He even took the initiative to back down


    so as to not have any direct conflict with him.


    Instead, he pointed at ra and said indifferently, "ra Moo, I''m certain you and your father have


    something to do with the death of Zelson and Horgan. The Chai family will not let this go so easily."


    Obviously, Hod did not know that Fade was the one who murdered Zelson and Horgan. The only


    thing he knew was that the Moo family had something to do with their deaths, and they were


    ming it on ra.


    A hint of anger shed across ra''s face and she replied, "Hod, I don''t care about your Chai


    family, but our Moo family has nothing to do with this, and we are ready to face whatever you all


    throw our way." "Ready to face it? However bold you are, I don''t think you can afford to offend the


    Chai family! Hmph!" After that, Hod gave a heavy snort and turned away with his subordinates.


    Upon hearing this, ra pulled a long face and she seemed worried.


    The Chai family had been developing well in recent years, and they were especially flourishing in


    the political and business world. They had some great connections and they had surpassed the


    Moo family. The Chai family had sessfully be the most powerful family in Long City.


    If they really tried to go against each other, the Moo family would most likely lose the battle.


    But now, a misfortune had happened in the Chai family. The head and the young master of the Chai


    family were now dead. Under such a circumstance, the Moo family had a higher chance of winning


    if both families were toe into confrontation.


    However, it was only a possibility. No one could say for certain if they could aplish victory.


    Perhaps due to this reason, Taufeeq invited his old friend, Salman, over to help him boost his


    superiority.


    Keith obviously also had this thought in mind. Seeing the situation, he quickly came over and


    comforted ra, "ra, don''t worry. My father and I are here. This time we will definitely be able to


    help the Moo family defeat the Chai Family. You can rest assured."


    ra was not in a good mood, but after all, Keith was speaking for her. Therefore, she smiled


    politely and nodded gratefully, "Well, then I''m grateful to Mr. Zheng and Young Master Zheng."


    "ra, you don''t have to be so polite. Just call me Keith." Keith pressed on, "By the way, ra,


    what do you think about the matter I mentioned to you before?"


    When it came to this, ra''s face immediately sank, and her expression was somewhat unnatural.


    She replied, "This, this, I still need to think about it. And my father, he..."


    Upon hearing this, Keith looked anxious and he said with pursued excitement, "ra, why are you


    still hesitating? Is there anything that you don''t like about me? Tell me, I''ll correct it right away."


    "Keith, I, I am not..." ra was somewhat hesitant.


    Keith became more and more excited. He took the initiative to reach out to grab ra''s hand.


    "ra, I really like you. I have always regarded you as my goddess. I want to be with you even in


    my dreams." "Besides, the Zheng and the Moo families have


    such a great rtionship. It''s good for the two of us to be together," Keith said excitedly.


    ra''s expression became more and more evasive. She stepped back to avoid Keith''s outstretched


    hand and stammered, "Keith, I, I''m still too young. I haven''t even started thinking about these


    things..."


    "ra, you still don''t know me well. We have to spend more time together. Once you get to know


    me, you will definitely fall in love with me." Keith took the initiative to approach her again and he was


    about to reach out his hand.


    ra had already retreated to the railing, and there was nowhere else for her to recoil. She was


    flustered, and she was about to be held into Keith''s arms.


    Meanwhile, Fade stepped forward, stood in front of ra to block Keith, and uttered indifferently,


    "Young Master Zheng, that''s not how a gentleman treats a girl."


    Seeing this, Keith couldn''t help frowning. He said in a deep voice, "What are you doing? ra is my


    fiancee. I have a close rtionship with her. What rtionship do you have with her?"


    Fade''s face darkened at those words.


    ra nced at Fade and hurriedly exined, "No, that''s not it. I''m not engaged to him. I''m not his


    fiancee." "ra, my father and yours have already talked about the engagement. It will happen


    sooner orter. There is nothing to be embarrassed about," Keith uttered and stepped over again,


    trying to pull Fade out of the way and get closer to ra.


    However, Fade moved to the side and stopped Keith in his tracks. He growled angrily, "Young


    Master Zheng, ra has said that she is not your fiancee, at least not for now. You better not act


    recklessly."

    After being blocked over and over again, Keith was really getting a little furious. He rolled up his


    sleeves and red at Fade, saying in a deep voice, "Since when was it your turn to take care of my


    business? Get out of my way!"


    Fade''s face sank, he sneered, "Are you sure you want to fight with me?"


    As he spoke, Fade smacked his hand on the railing aside. When it was moved away, he left a clear


    palm mark on the steel railing.


    Seeing this, Keith couldn''t help but shiver. He came back to his senses in an instant. With a horrified


    look on his face, he took a few steps back.


    Only then, he recalled that Fade here was a martial artist. He benefited from his martial arts skills in


    rescuing Taufeeq and ra, and that was why they were so respectful of him.


    If they were to fight head-on, Keith was definitely no match for Fade.


    Of course, in Keith''s opinion, all these martial artists were just brute force. The real and most


    powerful martial art masters did not have to fight.


    Hence, Keith stepped back and stared at Fade coldly. He gritted his teeth and said, "I''ll remember


    you. Once the festival is over, I''ll let you know the consequences of offending me."


    Then, Keith took a deep look at ra, turned around, and left.


    Looking at Keith leaving, ra''s eyes showed a trace of worry. She then lowered her head and


    apologized to Fade, "Brother Chen, I''m sorry, it''s all my fault, and that''s why you..."


    Fade shook his head and reached out to pat ra on her head. He whispered gently, "ra, there''s


    no need to apologize. You didn''t do anything wrong. Also, what happened between you and Keith?"


    Upon mentioning this, ra''s face sank and she sighed softly, exining, "The Moo family has


    been suppressed by the Chai family for the past decade, and it is gradually getting harder for us to


    continue our business in Long City. This time, the


    Chai family has suffered a great loss and since it is also the Lantern Festival, my father wants to


    take advantage of this opportunity to surpass the Chai family and regain the position of the number


    one family in the province."


    "It''s just that in order for us to have a stable position as the most powerful family in Long City, we


    would need support from all aspects. Our Moo family is a martial arts family, and we are confident


    that we can beat the Chai family in martial arts, but in terms of politics andmerce, I''m afraid that


    we might still have a long way to go before we can surpass them."
